Despite Boruto: Two Blue Vortex promising a fresh start, the Naruto franchise's latest entry still seems uncomfortable with allowing its female characters to fend for themselves. Sarada Uchiha, for all her newfound confidence, still ends the chapter serving mainly as an excuse for the male lead to reappear as dramatically as possible. This has been, unfortunately, a recurring pattern since Naruto, whose female characters rarely are allowed to personally affect the plot.
