BORUTO EPISODE 209 REVIEW & SUMMARY
BORUTO EPISODE 209: This episode was really great.
It was very touching and emotional. I give it a rating of
10/10 as both the producers & animators did a splendid job.
Now gather around people as we review and summarize
this episode together.
1️.) Kawaki’s dream in the first scene looked very ominous as it
seemed to be a presage or rather, a presentiment if you like to
the events of episode 1 and chapter 1.
2️.) It was good to see yet another episode that was partly
focused on Himawari, not since Hima-super episodes 126 &
154. Most gratifying of it all was the producer making sure to
explore her deepening relationship with her step-brother, with
regards to the growing bond between the Uzumaki family and
Kawaki. Her concern for Kawaki when she didn’t see him in the
morning was very heartwarming.
Himawari Steal Food (BORUTO EPISODE 209)
3️.) Hima is indeed Naruto’s & Hinata’s offspring as we were
opportune to witness yet another display of peak kindness &
compassion from the girl. Going as far as to steal foodstuffs
from the house to feed a hungry wolf which I’d say was very
much peculiar and synonymous with what Naruto & Hinata
did in the past.
4️.) I couldn’t help but correlate and corroborate the message
being passed across in this episode with the message passed
in manga chapter 60. Like the story of the estranged wolf
ostracized by its pack as a result of its conspicuous difference,
and later sacrificed itself to save its pack or rather left by its
pack to die, we see a troubled boy conflicted with nightmares
brought about by the recent events in the village. We see
Kawaki was overwhelmed with the fear of a calamitous and
tragic future if he’s allowed to remain not just with the loving
and caring Uzumaki family but in Konoha as well.
He feels responsible for not just the unfortunate and brutal
events that took place just days before, but the events to
come in the future if Jigen were to ever come through his
karma again while he still remained in the village. And so to
him, leaving the village was the best course of action as he
will be protecting not just the village as a whole but the
Uzumaki family he has come to love and cherish.
Mitsuki’s keen perception & intelligence
5️.) Although he made a very short appearance, Mitsuki’s
keen perception & intelligence came to the fore once again
as he was able to accurately pinpoint and explain to Boruto,
what troubled Kawaki so and why he was acting strange.
Something Boruto took for granted earlier that day. This
helped Boruto understand what exactly was going on and
how to act accordingly.
6️.) The death of Jagga was a vital learning experience for
Hima. As she came to understand that the world is way
more tempestuous than she realizes and that there are
many circumstances that can’t be controlled or handled.
7️.) Once again we found yet another similarity between
Kawaki and Naruto as both of them have “messy handwriting”.
Boruto commented on Kawaki’s letter here just as Sasuke did
on Naruto’s at the end of Shippuden Also For the first time
ever, Boruto’s talk no Jutsu didn’t seem to have any effect as
Kawaki was still intent on leaving.
Shikamaru the most cautious and suspicious person
8️.) Ironically though, it was Shikamaru, the most cautious
and suspicious person in all of Konoha who pulled off the
perfect talk no Jutsu feat. He made Kawaki understand that
although he still didn’t support his stay in the village, he
trusts and respects the words and choices of Naruto, his
friend & Hokage He also pointed out that Konoha is the
safest place in the world for Kawaki as no other village
would be stupid enough to harbor and accommodate a
wanted fugitive In the end, this was more than enough to
break Kawaki and convince him to stay. A wonderful feat
indeed for someone like Shikamaru who seemed to have
changed from the same person we knew in Shippuden.
QUESTION FOR EVERYONE
I couldn’t help but notice that there was no security at the
main gate. For a village currently on guard after the recent
attack of Jigen at the house of the Hokage, they sure seem
to be quite lax in this aspect In time past, there were always
guards at the gate. I remember Izumo and Koketsu were
there when Sasuke tried to leave the village Or were the
guards excused on purpose by Shikamaru? What do you think?
