This volume was fairly entertaining. The villains are laughably bad but the rest is decent. I see more of naruto and sasuke right now than the new generation but I'm sure it's just for the introduction. Fans wouldn't have been too happy at the time to receive a whole new character without warming up to them alongside ones they are already used to.

~3/5
In the first part of the volume, the competition continues. Boruto does rather well, only to be discovered for cheating. It's quite bad character on his part, and his reaction to being discovered only makes it worse. On the other hand, during this, he seems to be making a step forward in his relationship with his father.
But then that gets interrupted by some people after the animal inside Naruto, and there's some fighting, a kidnapping and rescuing. It all happens rather quickly, honestly. At the end of the volume, we're admidst another big fight scene, in the middle of yet another big reveal by the bad guys.
I don't care much for this series. I didn't care much for the original, though, to be honest. Plus, Boruto is such a whiny kid. Supposedly he grew in this volume, but I don't really see it.

A decade or so of Naruto paid of with a nostalgic moment. Sure, I saw it coming a mile away, but it still hit me.
The Good: Artistry of the characters
The Rough: The storyline and dialogue seemed a bit rushed - it seemed like they were really trying to get to the end of the Chunin exams for that conflict to arise. I also thought it was weird to have Boruto go off to rescue Naruto with the other Kages and Sasuke without any sort of dialogue from Hinata or another character preventing him from getting his dad back from the Ohtsutsukis. Seemed strange to me to let him do that, but that may be just more of a personal thing.
Will I Read More of the Series?: I will continue to read another volume or two to see how the story progresses. Depending on how things go, I may continue or drop the series.

I really like how the Ukyo Kodachi shows us how the relationship between Naruto and Boruto gets stronger and stronger and am so freaking proud of naruto
