Boruto: Naruto Next Generations has done a solid job of telling the story of the next generation of ninja for the Hidden Leaf Village of Konoha, but the series definitely has not forgotten the events that came before and fans are loving the latest episode that mourns the ninja that fell during the Fourth Ninja World War. As fans know, the sequel series of Naruto: Shippuden wasn’t shy about killing a large number of ninja when the Hidden Leaf was attempting to stop the plans of the Akatsuki and their benefactors in Madara Uchiha and Obito!

So Much Pain
I know I am a few days late, but maybe the fact that Boruto, episode 178 was so full of emotions, I wasn’t ready to watch it earlier. 😭

Shikamaru The GOAT
Moments like these is why Shikamaru is still such a fan favorite. I can’t wait to see what Shikadai inherits from his Dad moving forward #BORUTO #Boruto178 #Naruto pic.twitter.com/6KU9j9ITom
