Boruto Anime Canon Debate (Momoshiki Arc)

[Heatforce]

I've been a proponent of the anime taking over as the main canon since the Manga started to introduce anime elements. We did it for DBS, not sure what the issue is here.

 

[AstralKing7]

lets just go with the manga and make profiles for characters who are introduced in the VS Momoshiki arc but not the manga. Its not that complicated

 

[Dzhindzholia]

The manga is canon,but anime is just a prequel,we don't know how much it is different from the manga,for now it is only a couple of little differences that matters almost nothing.We can wait before the end of Momo's arc,if the differences will be that huge,we will stick to the canon.

 

[Antvasima]

Well, as I mentioned, it is best to ask Kepekley for input.

 

[AppleLord]

We should wait to see if Anime Momoshiki looks like Manga Momoshiki or movie momoshiki to see what continuity it follows.

 

[Kepekley23]

The Boruto manga is receiving more input from Kishimoto than the anime. As far as I know, only the first arc of the anime had any involvement from him, while Ikemoto receives direct supervision from Kishi while drawing the manga.

I believe the manga is the best choice here.

 

[AppleLord]

If Anime Momoshiki fusion looks like manga momoshiki then it's canon.

 

[Antvasima]

Okay. Thank you for the evaluation. Should we place an explanation note about this in the Naruto (The Universe) page?

 

[Shadowbokunohero]

what about anime only profiles?

how would we go about powerscaling those?

 

[Shadowbokunohero]

also i liked to bring this up again

just incase of confusion

The naruto Hiden,Shinden novels are canon to the Manga

 

[M3X_2.0]

I think they both complement each other. There is no way to disregard the anime, there are new characters there

 

[Kepekley23]

@Shadow

Using the anime, of course.

@Ant

"Note: We consider the Boruto manga canon, since Masashi Kishimoto supervises its script. In that case, the Boruto anime is a secondary source of information, and only takes precedence when dealing with filler characters."

 

[Shadowbokunohero]

Perhaps we could use the anime more as supplementary Canon...which is what the anime kinda is

meaning we can use the Anime when it's not covering the manga's events

as the anime isn't Non Canon as the Naruto anime was

 

[AstralKing7]

first lets make a list of the anime profiles so we should know which need be appointed correct scaling. As of now the only ones i know of are Kagura and Iwabi and we can apply feats from the anime to manga profiles like Ariya and Shinki and Yodo since we didnt see thier fights in the manga i think this wont mess up their scaling

Nevermind Ninjaed me XD

you been working on Naruto for far to long Kep

 

[Shadowbokunohero]

what about characters like Konohamaru that are far more fleshed out in the anime than the manga...

do we compeltely disregard the anime?

or can we have an "Anime" key for specific characters like those

 

[Shadowbokunohero]

So anyway as for the Main Canon that we will be using from now on

this is what I can remember that's all true canon, if i missed something let me know

Naruto Manga (Obviously)

Naruto The Last

Naruto Hiden/Shinden Books (Stated to be canon to the manga by Shueisha. Naruto's manga publisher, not to be confused with Studio Pierrot who makes the anime)

Naruto Gaiden: The Seventh Hokage and the Scarlet Spring

Boruto Naruto Next generations Manga

 

[AstralKing7]

i believe feats and abilities for people like Kono sensei should be added cause we know nothing about him before the start of the chunin exams in the manga so its alright to add it to his profile since we dont know how strong he was before than.

 

[AstralKing7]

why cant characters who showed up before the exams in the manga just have profiles like Devilman???

 

[Antvasima]

@Kepekley

That seems fine. Feel free to add it to the Naruto (The Universe) page.

 

[TheFinalOrder]

Everything from the First Arc in the Anime up until the Momoshiki Arc starts should be canon to the Manga save for the Gaiden anime Arc (The Gaiden Manga is the main canon).

Kodachi said this about the fist arc:

And he canonized the Fieldtrip Arc.

Kodachi also has credits for writing episodes and supervising the anime. IMO, everything from Episode 1 to the Graduation exams should be considered canon, no adaptations though.

 

[HST_Master]

I agree with having the Manga be primary canon amd only having anime profiles for "filler" characters like Urashiki (or who just don't show up in the manga) I mean we already do it for movie villains like Menma.

 

[Shadowbokunohero]

Anime isnt filler by any means

 

[Shadowbokunohero]

it's literally the same problem as with Dragonball Super just on a minor a scale

 

[Antvasima]

@Kepekley

After you have updated the Naruto verse page, we can probably close this thread.

 

[Kepekley23]

I'll update the page. This day's been a bit of a rollercoaster.

 

[Burning_Full_Fingers]

If Anime Momoshiki fusion looks like manga momoshiki then it's canon.

What if that happens, and Urashiki actually fights against the Kage?

I think we can use it for things that don't directly contradict what we're shown in the manga.

 

[Antvasima]

@Kepekley

Okay. Thank you for the help.

 

[Antvasima]

Should we close this thread then?

 

[Kepekley23]

Can you open the page for me?

 

[Antvasima]

The verse page is locked? That is strange. I will fix it.

 

[Kepekley23]

Done with the edits. I think we can close this.

 

[Antvasima]

Okay. Thanks again.
