Published: Feb. 5, 2019, midnight

This episode of Pic.Think: TV with Sy & Ramaar focuses on "Boruto: Naruto Next Generations", which is Shonen Jump's spin-off sequel to the anime "Naruto". In the first segment (Parents, Mentors & Teachers), we introduce the discussion with an explicit focus on the theme of parenthood and mentorship in the Naruto-Boruto universe. To start, we discuss which characters from the Naruto-Boruto universe we would choose as our parents, mentor and teacher if we were a character within the anime series. In the second segment (Due Diligence), we dive into the review of the series as a whole by considering whether the offspring sequel of Boruto manages to follow up the fathering Naruto and Naruto: Shipuuden series in a way that does it justice. In the third segment("The Will of Fire"), we conclude the discussion of Boruto we unravel the theme of "The Will of Fire" from focusing on the tension between parent-child relationships - such as those between Boruto & Naruto and Sarada & Sasuke - and individuality.
