The official Naruto Forum is full of passionate fans from around the world debating all aspects of the timeless series. Each week we'll pick out some of our favorite recent discussions, and we hope you'll join in the conversation too!

Boruto has been a hot topic on the site in all forms from the day Kishimoto Sensei announced the name. Everyone’s curious about the new generation of ninja, how their parents will handle their adult roles in the shinobi world, and the endless new pairing possibilities to argue over for years to come. Now that the Boruto manga has hit the pages of Weekly Shonen Jump, what are your thoughts on the first chapter?

Most Naruto fans love talking about all aspects of Japanese anime, manga & video games. Games are meant to be social, and sharing what video games you’re playing is a great way to get more enjoyment out of what you’re already doing, as well as find wonderful recommendations from like minded players. You may even find an online co-op buddy to enjoy them with, or a rival that makes you break your TV!

Favorite characters are easy to quantify. They do cool things, have great haircuts, and at times, die the most epic of deaths. There’s a fine art to being in the background, however, that is far less appreciated despite being no less necessary. Not everyone can be the focal point of a story — someone’s got to jump in to fill the panel from time to time to flesh out a scene, or die in the background during a big fight. We pay our respects to those that dare to contribute as little as posisble so that the rest of the cast can look good.
