00:00Well, to be honest, I've kind of come to terms with it, Boruto, well, it's kind of crap.
00:04It's nowhere near the level of Naruto, and besides, I sincerely think that Shadow Rising...
00:09It's going to save the Naruto license's ass a little, because, well, Boruto, you know.
00:14This is a comment I've been seeing everywhere on the internet, on all social networks, for the past few days, a few weeks, and
00:20If you think the same thing, don't worry.
00:22I'm going to powder your ass in 4K. Don't worry. Don't worry.
00:27Actually, Boruto is a real banger, but the problem is that you don't own it at all
00:31the knowledge to talk to me about it, and that's the problem.
00:35First of all, you should know that 80% of the people who criticize Boruto have never opened a book, opened a
00:41in the manga, or even just watching the anime, they never really went beyond the first arc with Momoshiki and
00:47Kinshiki, huh.
00:48Really.
00:48To all the Boruto haters, I'm talking about Shojoji; 80% of you are stuttering, while
00:55The guy appears in volume 2, you know, that's saying something.
00:57And that's not some number I pulled out of thin air, I've been talking about it for over 10 years.
01:00of Boruto on the Internet, I was one of the first to talk about it along with Saikyo and ProSensei.
01:05Everyone was against Boruto back then, right? At the beginning, it was a disaster.
01:09I've spoken to a lot of haters over these 10 years, 80% of you tell me,
01:14I haven't opened a single volume of Boruto.
01:17Why are you shutting your mouth, anyway?
01:19Then, since 2019, the opening date of Manga Plus, the Shuecha website, Boruto and Boruto Double Vortex are
01:26simply second in the rankings, and that for 7 consecutive years.
01:31I'm not lying to you, check the numbers, Boruto has been second in the rankings for 2 years.
01:37It is also the only manga to have repeatedly dethroned the first one, which is One Piece.
01:44Well, even in 2026, Boruto was competing with Jijika Modulo, Dandadan, Chainsaw Man and many other bangers.
01:52Yet, it was Boruto who surpassed the others, and by quite a bit, too.
01:56Sometimes there was a difference of 6 figures, though, in the stats.
02:00That's not insignificant.
02:01But since you're having trouble understanding, let's switch over to Crunchyroll to see the top 100 videos
02:06the most watched on the channel.
02:08Among thousands of licenses, there are 15 Boruto videos ranging from 11 to 76 million views.
02:15on the red platform.
02:18So, you know, top 100, 15 times Boruto.
02:21And by the way, among this top 100, the least-watched Boruto video, the one with 11 million views,
02:26It's Naruto who poops, who still gets more views than Luffy against Kaido.
02:32So.
02:33And since people are comparing Boruto 116 to other franchises, we're going to take a look at what the...
02:38other licenses in the top 100.
02:40One Piece only appears 6 times, Demon Slayer appears 3 times, Solo Leveling 6 times, and Jojutsu Kaisen with
02:47The openings and endings 7 times.
02:49So, Boruto gets double to triple the views of all the manga I just mentioned.
02:55So, as you've probably gathered, on the Crunchyroll channel, Boruto dominates the top 100, and on Manga Plus, it is
03:00Second in 7 long years.
03:03And yet, I forgot to mention something very important to you.
03:06If we look at the figures from Pierrot studios, and therefore the anime that have performed best for them since
03:10their opening,
03:11Naruto Shippuden comes first, followed by Boruto.
03:16There you have it, Boruto is second again.
03:19And you're going to tell me, yes, but of course, at Studio Pierrot, there isn't much there,
03:23The catalogue is a bit biased.
03:25Okay, well, the rest of the ranking includes Bleach, Black Clover and even Pokémon.
03:33Boruto was more popular.
03:36What more do you want, actually? What do you want?
03:38Then, Boruto is a damn good monthly manga, everyone wants it weekly, and we are
03:44a fucking monthly magazine.
03:45So we get one chapter per month, whereas, to get back to One Piece, it can release four.
03:50in a single month if all goes well and there is no break.
03:54Not to mention that One Piece on Manga Plus is translated into 8 languages compared to 6 languages for Boruto.
04:00So, we're losing stats on that as well.
04:02And yet, Boruto is the only manga that keeps pace with One Piece and sometimes even surpasses it, and yet,
04:08You want us to believe it's a flop.
04:12Well, that's brave, isn't it?
04:13Boruto has a community of psychopaths, people who ardently defend the work.
04:17Because we, in fact, have seen and read the work, and we therefore know that
04:21It's not crap.
04:22I'll give you another example. On Manga Plus Toujours, with each new chapter of One Piece, we count
04:27about fifty comments under the chapter.
04:31People talking and conversing a little, theorizing about what will happen next for Luffy in Elbaf.
04:37When it's a Boruto chapter, there are thousands of comments under each chapter.
04:42So, you should know that, between the Boruto Komi and the One Piece Komi, the Boruto Komi shares, theorizes, and exchanges
04:4920 times more.
04:51Well, I could even tell you about the brothers like Millie, Mams, Ludovic or Natsu,
04:58who have become iconic figures among Naruto and Boruto content creators on the French internet,
05:03And each time, they have hundreds of thousands of subscribers who themselves love the Naruto franchise and
05:10Boruto.
05:10And you want me to believe, yet again, that Boruto is a flop and that there isn't
05:15Is there no community in France?
05:17Well, bro, it's just that we're silent, we're in our corner and we're waiting for it to happen.
05:22What.
05:22We're waiting for your change of heart, because it's coming.
05:25What more can I tell you, besides the fact that Boruto hasn't had any anime since 2023?
05:32Just wait until the Boruto anime or Boruto TBV returns to the screen or until it arrives on the screen.
05:37so that it boosts the manga's scores.
05:42Wait, do you hear that?
05:43That's how it's always worked.
05:46The Demon Slayer, Chainsaman, SNK, Jojutsu Kaisen,
05:49They all experienced a sales boost with the arrival of their anime.
05:53And yet, without animation, without a showcase, without real promotion,
05:57Because let's not kid ourselves, the promotion of Boruto,
05:59And really not crazy.
06:00Well, we're the only franchise that sometimes surpasses the GOAT, One Piece.
06:06And yet, you want me to believe it's a flop?
06:08The problem is that you're just repeating what your friends or older brothers say.
06:14older sisters or parents,
06:15You were told "Boruto is crap," so you mindlessly repeat "Boruto is
06:19"Shit."
06:20And why is "Boruto crap"? Because there's too much technology!
06:23You son of a bitch, you've read volume 1, tops.
06:26Read on!
06:27Half of you have watched the anime, so okay, it's not perfect, you have to
06:32'hang.
06:32But guys, there's a manga that exists, there are 29 volumes of Boruto and all the
06:36fans tell you
06:37"The anime, I admit, isn't amazing. We watch the manga, we read the manga, but you don't want to..."
06:42"Don't do it."
06:44Because you can no longer read, you no longer have the strength to read books.
06:49I'm sorry, I'm being mean, but it's true, you don't want to read it.
06:52And everything I say in the video is a fact; I'm not making anything up, I'm not changing anything.
06:56Nothing, I'm not distorting anything.
06:58These are the statistics I found on the internet, on the official pages of Manga+, Crunchyroll, I
07:06I can't cheat that.
07:07And yet, you want me to believe it's a flop?
07:11Are you crazy?
07:12Even you realize how much of a masterclass Boruto is in the making,
07:16It's just that we don't give him the right strength, and yet, he's there.
07:20What a bunch of actors.
07:21Perfect?
