Anna Karenina

IDIOT

Now you're a bit more handsome.

At least show me the steps.

Idiot.

Figuring out for yourself is a valuable part of training.

That just makes it more of a drag!

What the hell is he doing?

Ninja Art: Super Beast Scroll!

Ninja Art: Super Beast Scroll!

What is that? Graffiti?

Your aesthetics are pretty old, Dad.

Set your heart on fire!

Yes, Dad!

IDIOT

All right then.

Pretty soon now…

SEVENTH HOKAGE

SEVENTH HOKAGE Boruto!

Don't get carried away ridiculing your dad!

You're the ridiculous one!

SEVENTH HOKAGE

SEVENTH HOKAGE A Shadow Clone?

Over here!

Stop right there, Boruto!

There's no way I'll let myself get caught so easily.

Idiots never learn their lesson.

Shh!

SEVENTH HOKAGE

SEVENTH HOKAGE Sarada!

SEVENTH HOKAGE

SEVENTH HOKAGE Lord Seventh!

Have you seen Boruto?

He went that way.

Thank you!

I should be the one saying thanks, Sarada.

Damn it.

Getting upset over a little graffiti

on the Great Stone Faces…

Such a petty old man!

You just wanted him to come after you, right?

You're just upset

because he doesn't pay enough attention to you.

You're wrong!

We haven't played tag in a while…

And I have to break the record from last time!

Shadow Paralysis Jutsu…

Boruto…

Don't make too much trouble for Lord Seventh.

The Hokage is under a lot of pressure…

And that goes for me, his adviser.

Damn it!

Lord Hokage sure has it rough, having to deal with the likes of you.

That was a Shadow Clone!

The real stupid old man… went back to work ages ago!

If Lord Seventh used Sage Mode, he'd find you in a flash!

I know that. And that's why…

I kept running away until Dad got serious!

Neither father nor son knows when to quit.

You and Naruto are so much alike.

Don't lump me in with Dad!

Shikadai, go and get Lord Seventh's shadow clone.

Huh? Why me?

Then will you take over here?

This is such a drag.

Seems like we're alike too.

It's a drag for me too.

Now, get going!

SARADA UCHIHA Yeah… Run with spirit!

SARADA UCHIHA Yes!

SARADA UCHIHA Next up,

is cliff-climbing!

Yes, Dad!

If you're not gonna eat that, I'm gonna take it!

Are you ignoring me?

Adolescent mood swing?

Everyone gets along so well.

Graduation exams aren't even soon.

Are you talking about the tests?

If this test would change my weight,

I'd consider taking it.

So what's the big deal about becoming a ninja?

What does everyone want to be?

I mean…doesn't ninja sound pretty lame?

What's with all this? Did something happen?

Not really…

Anyway, where are you going from now?

I have time today, so I'll go wherever you want!

Actually…

I promised Dad that I'd train with him later.

I see…

Of course, to me training is whatever…

I have zero desire to go, but…

You should go.

You don't want to fail the exam, do you?

What's with that condescending attitude?

It really gets on my nerves!

You might think you're really special

being from the one and only Uchiha Clan…

so you don't have to worry.

That's got nothing to do with it.

Then what is it?

It's a special chance…

for you and your dad—

Hey!

Cho-Cho!

Over here! Over here!

Damn it! So embarrassing!

W-What's wrong with a grown-up eating potato chips

as he walks around town?

No!

He's such a poser,

he's eating lightly salted chips just for show!

He usually eats the consommé-flavored ones!

We really don't see eye to eye, the two of us!

Oh, that's the problem.

Cho-Cho, over here. Over here!

I'm over here!

So strange.

Don't you think my dad and I are different in every way?

I wonder about that…

What about your family?

M-My family?

Are you and your dad alike?

I really don't know.

For as long as I can remember…

I've never even met him.

Where are you, and what are you doing?

I'm home!

I'm so exhausted!

Welcome home!

Is something wrong?

My eyes got blurry.

It happens once in a while.

Let me see!

I-It just got a little blurry.

It's better now.

Maybe my glasses need adjusting.

It might be good to go get them checked.

Don't make such a big deal out of it.

You should worry about yourself.

You really work too hard.

So, um…

Yeah?

Did Dad…wear eyeglasses?

What makes you ask such a question?

You have good eyes,

so I wondered if my needing glasses comes from Dad.

I don't think so.

Probably.

"Probably"?

You're not sure even though he's your husband?

What's going on? You've been acting weird lately.

When is Dad's important mission supposed to end?

Well… I think it'll end someday.

I guess you wouldn't know.

After all, you don't even know if he wore glasses.

That was harsh, Sarada.

What's wrong with wanting to know a little about Dad?

"The Uchiha Clan is among the most venerable clans

that bore many skilled ninja."

"Their Sharingan is considered their greatest trait."

"When it awakens, a special pattern appears in the eye,

enabling one to see through taijutsu, genjutsu and ninjutsu."

"Even more exceptional is the Mangekyo Sharingan,

which has a different pattern."

The Sharingan, huh?

I wonder if Dad has it…

"The Sharingan awakens when there is deep emotional trauma."

"Unique chakra emitted inside the brain by pain and suffering

affects the optic nerves…

transforming the eyes into the Sharingan."

"The Uchiha Clan, due to grave misfortune,

nearly lost its entire lineage."

"At the present time, the only ones known to be living
