That was a good way to end vol 5. The build up is there too, if you re-read ch 17-20(vol 5)

Opening of the vol 5 starts w Sarada distracted by the Sumire/Boruto drama & ending of the vol 5 is her moving past it to use Mangekyou

How Jura talks about love & say to get rid of it is GOOD

He has rinnegan(samsara), yet he is the embodiment of the Buddhist concept of Samsara gone wrong

An endless cycle of evolution w/ out enlightenment. A being without karma only evolution & causing suffering

#boruto

This whole Konohamaru/Matsuri/Moegi dynamic has a layer I don't think is being overlooked

Moegi's unspoken/unfulfiled love for Konohamaru led to the suffering/vengence that is Matsuri

It twists & echoes Noh stories, concepts like onryō, Yuki-onna
