What Episodes Of Boruto Are Filler?

If you're wondering if Boruto is worth watching after Naruto, the answer is yes. Yeah, Naruto dreamed of becoming the Hokage throughout the Naruto series, but the plot only showed him as the Hokage for a brief moment. Boruto solves this problem because, during the entire series, Naruto Uzumaki is the Hokage of Konoha and is recognised by everyone, making it worthwhile to watch.

Boruto: Naruto Next Generations is the sequel to Naruto Shippuden. It was written by Ukyo Kodachi, illustrated by Mikio Ikemoto, and overseen by Masashi Kishimoto. It was first published on May 16, 2016. Its anime adaptation premiered on April 5, 2017, although the manga was only up to chapter 10 at the time due to its monthly publishing. As a result, the anime has numerous episodes labelled "Anime Canon," as Light Novels, and extra volumes of the prequel manga had to be adapted due to the manga's scarcity.

Boruto Filler List: FAQ

1. Which episodes of Boruto are filler?

These filler episodes do not add much value to the anime plot, although the creators of the show stated that Boruto does not have any fillers at all and that it is all canon. Filler episodes: 16-18, 40-41, 48-50, 59, 61, 67-69, 93-97, 105-111, 113-114, 116-119, 138-140, 155-156, 192.

2. How much filler is Boruto?

Boruto: Naruto Next Generations anime does not have many fillers (contrary to popular belief). As of episode 213 (five new episodes 209, 210, 211, 212, and 213 are yet to be released), only 30 episodes are filler episodes, making up only 14 percentage.

3. Is Boruto filler over?

The series ably adapted canon material from the Boruto movie and the Seventh Hokage & The Scarlet Spring manga, and filler stories such as the recent time-travel nostalgia trip or the Mitsuki retrieval mission have been worthwhile.

4. How old is Kakashi in Boruto?

He should have been around 35 or 36 when Boruto was born, which puts him at about 48 years old in Boruto. He still manages to look like the 26-year old that fans met so many years ago.

5. Will Boruto surpass Naruto?

Boruto Uzumaki will most certainly surpass his dad, the 7th Hokage Naruto Uzumaki, by the end of the series since Naruto himself stated that “the younger generation must surpass the older generation.”

6. What Boruto filler should I watch?

The episode “Death Match” is currently the highest-rated filler episode in the Boruto anime. It's from the Kara Actuation arc and sees Konohamaru and Team 7 going up against Deepa in an attempt to protect the Hashirama Cell.

7. Will Boruto get sage mode?

Keeping that in mind, it isn't too hard to see that Boruto can eventually learn the Sage Mode as well. He certainly does have all the prerequisites for this technique and only needs to train hard to pull it off.
