Celebrating 10 Years of Boruto! Here's a Q&A with Mikio Ikemoto!
Q. Cho-Cho used to think Kawaki was good-looking, but how did her perception change after Omnipotence took effect? Is it something like "she used to think the outsider Boruto was attractive, but now she finds the Seventh's son, Kawaki, to be the handsome one instead"?
A. Ever since that day, she's noticed that the Hokage's son (Kawaki) has suddenly become very attractive. And since Boruto has matured in many ways by the time he returns to the village three years later, her impression regarding him seems to be, "He's as handsome as ever".
Q. How did Boruto and Sasuke handle meals after leaving Konoha?
Q. How did Boruto and Sasuke handle meals after leaving Konoha?
A. Boruto and Sasuke mainly ate fish caught in rivers or the sea, and wild birds (hunted using Lightning Style or shuriken, which also doubled as training). They'd also occasionally forage for wild plants and mushrooms. It appears their primary methods of cooking were either boiling or grilling.
