REDIRECT! Boruto: Naruto Next Generations Season 2 Episodes 38, 39 and 40 Reaction
52TEAM 7 VS MIRAI, MITSUKI AWAKENS SAGE MODE AND TEAM 7'S FIRST MISSION! Wow! Boruto is getting more and more lit these days! It was great seeing Mirai in action and Mitsuki awakening his sage mode/ sage transformation. In episode 38, after graduating from the Academy, Boruto and his classmates get formed into their new teams with Boruto getting teamed with Sarada and Mitsuki as the new team 3. However, Sarada is very disappointed with this decision as she states to Konohamaru that her and Boruto are very incompatible, they don't get along as Boruto is too reckless and will only jeopardise her goal to become the Hokage. So Sarada with Boruto and Mitsuki attempt to send a request to Hokage Naruto but are stopped by Mirai Sarutobi who is guarding the pathway after the bridge. Boruto and Sarada are forced to fight Mirai as they must defeat her to pass by but Mirai is a very skilled Chunin. Mirai dodges all of Boruto's reckless, close range taijutsu while Sarada and Mitsuki observe. The bridge starts to collapse so Mitsuki uses his snakes to hold the bridge together whilst Boruto and Sarada fight Mirai. Sarada uses her Sharingan to increase her reflexes but Mirai is too fast and casts a genjutsu on her that even Sarada's Sharingan could not pick up. Sarada is stuck from an illusionary tree and yells at Boruto for his recklessness. Konohamaru comes and tells Mirai they're his students and that Boruto and Sarada must work together. Boruto and Sarada eventually come up with a plan, Boruto uses his shadow clones to distract Mirai while a clone sneaks up from behind and grabs her feet to make her fall. Mirai falls but is caught by Konohamaru's rope. Throughout the whole day, Mirai is left there with ropes binding her. Lol that's savage! The team then meet Naruto to ask for their team number to be changed to team 7 which Naruto accepts. The new team 7!
In episode 39, Mitsuki reminisces the past after Sarada asks him what missions he likes doing and Mitsuki replies that he likes doing whatever Boruto is doing, being a good ninja. In the flashback, Mitsuki wakes up in a laboratory and finds out Orochimaru is his parent. Orochimaru tells him that he lost his memory after going on a mission with him to stop an enemy called Log who can erase and steal memories and that it's the sixth time this has happened but Mitsuki doubts his abilities. Orochimaru tells him he's very special and they both go on a mission to capture Log. Orochimaru fights Log with his snakes to poison him but the fangs cannot pierce Log's armor. Log reveals his face to Mitsuki. Log reveals that he's also an experiment just like Mitsuki, an adult version of him and that his goal is to stop Orochimaru's crazily immoral ambition to create perfect human beings by constantly and immorally testing on potential humans, Mitsuki is confused while Log tries to get Mitsuki to side with him while Orochimaru at the same time, tries to make Mitsuki understand that he does experiments out of love. Mitsuki refuses to choose a side and out of intense emotion, awakens his AWESOME and OVERPOWERED sage transformation/ sage mode. Omg I absolutely love his sage mode character design! It turns out that this was all just a test for Mitsuki's loyalty and to make him awaken his sage mode. Orochimaru and Log are pleased.
In episode 40, team 7 embark on their first mission to another village called Green Banks, to expel bandits there. It turns out that Green Banks and the neighbouring villages have had poor harvests and are having their food stolen by storehouses. Boruto thinks this will be easy while Sarada bosses him around to not do anything reckless and make her look bad. The team are introduced to Kiri, the new village leader although she doubts they have much skills as they're kids. But Konohamaru assures her that they're skilled but Kiri states that it's not just bandits that are attacking them but people have started hiring shinobi which makes Konohamaru panic. Konohamaru talks to Kiri in private saying that this mission would at least be B-rank if shinobis are involved which the genins are not ready for. However, before any time to think things through, a villager gets killed by a shinobi which Boruto recklessly fights and almost gets killed himself. Konohamaru saves him and fights the shinobi off. Konohamaru asks Kiri to be honest with them about what they're really after and Kiri replies that they want the deed to the bridge which is what her father built. However, at night, shinobis arrive to attack the villagers and putting them under a genjutsu to attack team 7. Team 7 are outnumbered but focus on finding the genjutsu caster but are too late as Kiri has already been kidnapped. Jeez...sorta like the Haku and Zabuza arc.
