New ‘Boruto’ Opening Teases Sasuke Training Sequence

Boruto has had its ups and downs when it comes to openings. Over its tenure, the anime has produced some stellar openings with a few misses, but its latest has hit the mark just right.

After all, fans are loving how the new reel looks, and they are even happier to see Sasuke show up in the opening.

Recently, Boruto: Naruto Next Generations hit up fans with a new opening. The reel is the fifth one released by the show, and it features an intriguing scene with Sasuke Uchiha.

After the clip’s opening montage, fans are shown a series of scenes starring Boruto. The boy is seen training with various groups, and it doesn’t take long before his own teacher pops in. While Konohamaru is out doing his own thing, Sasuke steps in to train Boruto one on one in a field, and the gorgeous scene has got fans wanting more.

The pair appear to be sparring before an Uchiha clan memorial, and Sasuke is dressed in his usual attire. Boruto is seen trying to land a hit on his teacher, but Sasuke is evading each throw with ease. Finally, the Uchiha is able to halt Boruto by thrusting a palm at him, leaving the younger boy to look up at Sasuke sheepishly.

As far as we know, there are no plans for Boruto to release a training-centric episode with Sasuke in tow. The idea, though, has intrigued many. Fans want to see how a typical day of training in the Leaf Village would go down between the pair, but they know how it would end up… Sasuke isn’t one to lose, and he’s not about to start with Boruto.

So, would you like to see an aside like this in Boruto one day? Let me know in the comments or hit me up on Twitter @MeganPetersCB to talk all things comics and anime!
