Sarada’s Struggle with Damsel in Distress Label in Boruto: Two Blue Vortex Chapter 11 Upsets Fans

Boruto: Two Blue Vortex chapter 11 has been somewhat underwhelming in certain aspects, particularly in regards to characters such as Sarada Uchiha. She has been neglected in the manga for a significant period of time, and it appeared that she was finally going to have an opportunity to showcase her abilities. As the daughter of one of the most powerful members of the Uchiha clan, she undoubtedly possesses a great deal of potential.

In previous years, the fanbase had numerous grievances about the handling of Sarada’s character. However, with the release of the Two Blue Vortex manga chapters, fans were hopeful for a fresh start for many characters.

Nevertheless, the most recent chapter reversed all the advancement made in the past 10 chapters and regressed Sarada to the archetypal “damsel in distress.”This serves as a prime example of how a promising character was squandered by not giving her the opportunity to showcase her potential when the spotlight was on her.

Please note: This article contains major spoilers from the manga chapters of Boruto: Two Blue Vortex.

Analysis of Chapter 11 of Boruto: Two Blue Vortex – Impact of Boruto’s Inclusion on Sarada’s Character Development

The manga excelled in its introduction of the new antagonists, the Shinju, as each Divine Tree entity selected their own target. The possibility of deuteragonists having their own fight was hinted at throughout the manga, with one particularly intriguing potential match between Sarada Uchiha and Hidari.

However, in the manga chapter, the main character stepped in and showed her ability to put up a fight and potentially defeat Hidari. However, since the time skip, Sarada’s abilities have yet to be seen.

Despite all the shinobi exhibiting incredible strength and progress, it was Himawari who truly stood out as she became the Nine-Tailed Beast Jinchuriki and is currently engaged in an intense battle against Jura, who nearly took down Inojin. However, Sarada once again found herself in a “saved”position, causing disappointment and frustration among fans who felt her character was mistreated. Let’s take a look at the fan reaction to the interruption of Sarada and Jura’s fight by Boruto.

How fans reacted to the fight being interrupted by Boruto

“Sarada gets saved by boruto in every arc now. It was good up untill i noticed how the writers never mutually balanced them out. Sarada either be completely absent or be a plot for boruto only. Nothing of her own. It ruins their own dynamic for me that i really loved,”said one fan.

“Wait for her MS..”They can make her the next goku. But power up will never equal to good writing. The author really be eating every plot potential she ever had,”said another.

“she’s full of potential yet wasted,”said another netizen.

It was apparent to fans that Sarada’s potential had been squandered by the handling of chapter 11 in the series. Despite activating her Mangekyou Sharingan in the manga, Sarada’s abilities were not fully utilized. The intervention of Boruto was not well-received by the fanbase of the series.

“A lot of this is simply impatience. We are BARELY into this manga,”noted one fan.

“It’s easy to stop reading manga with authors who don’t know how to write women, this franchise has always been like this,”said one fan.

“chill it only 11 chapters”bro the last time Sarada was cooking was in Boro arc(if i remember correctly),”said one netizen.

Despite some members of the fanbase feeling that the overall fanbase was being impatient, it was clear that stopping the character’s development was a mistake on the part of the writers. Netizens were quick to point this out and also drew attention to the unequal treatment of female characters in Boruto: Two Blue Vortex by the writers.
