Neo Quinn
the best thing I've ever heard about Boruto is that Boruto's Dad sends a shadow clone to his son's birthday party and hopes he doesn't notice
nerDIE
God that’s so awful
Neo Quinn
like Naruto's at the party holding Boruto's cake and he bumps a table by mistake
Neo Quinn
and poofs out of existence
Neo Quinn
and the cake hits the floor
Princess Emily
i love how we spend an eternity with Boruto's dad in the prequel manga so like, we're obviously supposed to empathize with him,
Princess Emily
but then he's just straight up a shitty parent
boat guy bad?
mood, emily
boat guy bad?
remember when naruto himself was an outcast and only had his teacher to rely on as a father figure? so glad to see this shaped his own parenting
Neo Quinn
I mean "We're supposed to empathize with him but he fucking sucks" is a broad overall problem in the Boruto's Dad canon
Neo Quinn
it's a whole thing with a great many characters
Neo Quinn
he just is the worst at making characters do things that make sense or aren't horrible
Neo Quinn
nart acts out and disrespects the hokage statues because he's an outcast who's been failed by society
Neo Quinn
bort acts out and disrespects the hokage statues because... genetics, I guess
big juicy
Okay but the cake dropping example you gave is. So funny.
Neo Quinn
RIGHT
Neo Quinn
I said "best" for a reason
big juicy
Boruto in therapy ten years from now talking about the time his dad vanished from his birthday party and dropped the cake on the floor
Overbringer
Naruto acts like a little shit for basically all of Boruto Prequel
Overbringer
That I remember, at least
big juicy
The therapist asks if that's the root of his abandonment issues now
Overbringer
I don't see why getting older would make him stop
big juicy
Wait hold on Quinn are you telling me that cake thing wasn't you making a joke about it? THAT'S LITERALLY WHAT HAPPENED???
Overbringer
Though really I think the root of the problem is that Masashi Kishimoto is just
Overbringer
A Bad Writer
Neo Quinn
IT LITERALLY HAPPENED
Neo Quinn
OR SO I HEAR
rose time
Oh my god that is choice
big juicy
THAT'S SO FUCKING GOOD
Usagi
g od
i mean tbh if my dad pulled that shit id paint all over his mountain face too

no way thats the only year it's happened wheeze
Neo Quinn
it's such a choice faux pas because like
Neo Quinn
it immediately calls every past birthday into question
Overbringer
Has Naruto EVER been to his son's birthday party?
nerDIE
And if no one confronts him
nerDIE
Every future birthday
Usagi
exactly...
like...naruto...dude...holyshit...
big juicy
Fuck that kid no jutsu
boat guy bad?
FUCK THAT KID NO JUTSU
moontouched
GOD
NekoIncardine
Well I mean at least he didn't name his kid Salad.
NekoIncardine
But yes Boruto's Dad being terrible is a thing
Neo Quinn
I don't know why people get so mad about Salad when like 90% of the cast are named after food
Neo Quinn
Naruto is named after food
boat guy bad?
IT WASNT EVEN BORUTO'S BDAY
boat guy bad?
IT WAS BORUTO'S LITTLE SISTER'S BDAY
Usagi
sarada herself is a good tbh",
moontouched
I CANT TELL IF THATS WORSE OR BETTER
Usagi
OH NOOOO
Neo Quinn
HOLY SHIT
Neo Quinn
THE COMEDIC TIMING ONT HIS IS SO GOOD
Princess Emily
well, I mean,
Neo Quinn
the music cut and the IMMEDIATE cake drop
Princess Emily
that's his wife's mini-clone, not his mini-clone, so that makes sense at least
big juicy
THE MUSIC
big juicy
I'm weeping at my desk this is so fucking funny
Rama
Goku: "I'm the worst non-villainous dad in anime."
Boruto's Dad: "hold my beer"
Neo Quinn
at least Boruto's Dad pretends to care
Neo Quinn
Goku wouldn't send the shadow clone
daughter hours
come now, he doesn't have that ability
Rama
Goku: "what's a birthday?"
daughter hours
he probably would if he could
★ тяу-нαя∂уи
goku: wait i have HOW MANY kids?
daughter hours
he'd probably send Shadow Clones to sleep with Chichi
Neo Quinn
why would he do that when those clones could be training
daughter hours
he can make lots of them
daughter hours
like ten to train with, one for the family
boat guy bad?
that one clone gets up and leaves halfway because he would rather be training
rose time
Just switches to doing push-ups in the middle of it
....Farlem.
--I was about to swing this to Gohan's Dad discussion but I see others have already done the job for me
big juicy
I'm supposed to be working but I can't stop thinking about fuck that kid no jutsu
....Farlem.
this just in: shounen jump promotes and is complicit with deadbeat dadding
rose time
I'm glad we didn't get a bleach two
rose time
Because any of that coming from Ichigo would be heartbreaking
rose time
I picture him being the kind of dad who doesn't always get his son but is 120% supportive
rose time
Also Orihime is there and you know she loves having a family and being able to do group family stuff
rose time
"Ichigo look at this cute family halloween costume theme"
rose time
"Orihime it is March-"
rose time
He is already dressed as a giant carrot
Princess Emily
honestly Kubo was actually really good about the downtime stuff, at least,
Princess Emily
I'd read "Bleach sequel, but there's no fighting this is now just slice of life family comedy"
rose time
Oh I would so read that
Princess Emily
"and every chapter cover is just characters dressed up in cool fashion"
rose time
There's a fighting anime in the background because Aunt Karin has taken over the Don kanonji role
rose time
When she's not coaching a youth soccer league
Princess Emily
occasional Hollow fight but it's always secondary and lbh they're not a threat nowadays
rose time
Something tries to Don Fisher Ichigo and he punches it in the snoot
rose time
He knows exactly what will happen if his sons parent dies in front of him and he won't be allowing that
Princess Emily
i'm throwing money at my computer screen but this series isn't getting made, what gives,
Overbringer
I'd watch the HELL out of Bleach 2 the wholesome family comedy series
Overbringer
grownup Ichigo's big struggle is that he finds himself acting more and more like Isshin as he gets old
Overbringer
And is just like "WHAT AM I BECOMING???"
Usagi
on the one hand not a bad dad on the other he can never take himself seriously again
rose time
Looks in the mirror and sees the stubble forming and screams
rose time
"Good morning, Dad"
rose time
"Kazui I can never say good morning to you again lest I activate a family curse"
rose time
Orihime takes this and runs with it on an Orihime internal logic tangent and tells Ichigo that she will love him even if he becomes a werewolf
rose time
But dogs aren't allowed in their apartment so she's going to draw them up blueprints for a new house
rose time
Just starts another arts and crafts project at the breakfast table
rose time
Orihime no it's a school day, we can't keep doing this
Overbringer
Orihime cannot be controlled
rose time
Ichigo makes his wife and son brush their teeth and go to school
rose time
(Orihime is an elementary school teacher)
rose time
Maybe a pediatrician or nurse?? I just really want her to work with kids
Overbringer
Kids who are frequently more mature than she is
rose time
Teacher is funniest because then she can be Ms Frizzle
rose time
Does literal magic on field trips and all the kids are like "nobody will ever believe this shit"
Overbringer
reverses time and casuality to repair someone's science project that fell off the table
Rama
Bleach Super
Overbringer
Have an episode where just like in the background Ichigo is running and hiding constantly because Uncle Kenpachi showed up
