Boruto Uzumaki

Boruto Uzumaki is a shinobi from Konohagakure's Uzumaki clan and a direct descendant of the Hyūga clan through his [mother.](https://anilist.co/character/1555/Hinata-Hyuuga) While initially resentful of his [father](https://anilist.co/character/17/Naruto-Uzumaki) and his absence since becoming Hokage, Boruto eventually comes to respect his father and duties. Regardless, he vows to instead become a shinobi like his [mentor.](https://anilist.co/character/13/Sasuke-Uchiha)

Boruto is loud, energetic, and stubborn not unlike his father; even possessing a verbal tic, "dattebasa" (だってばさ), similar to Naruto's "dattebayo" and his paternal [grandmother's](https://anilist.co/character/7302/Kushina-Uzumaki) "(da)ttebane" ((だ)ってばね). However, compared to his father at his age, Boruto is more refined and crafty, seemingly knowing all the shortcuts, as well as more mature in knowing how the world works. Between the two, he is more sarcastic. Unlike Naruto, Boruto doesn't yell what he feels, which is the biggest difference. Despite his laid-back attitude, he is very diligent. Conversely, Boruto's upbringing has also been different than that of his father's: Boruto's family is always there for him, and he likewise has many friends, and his acquisitions came easily and naturally to him from a combination of prodigious talents and nurturing parents.

Similar to that of their parents, Boruto shares a complicated relationship with Sasuke's daughter, [Sarada.](https://anilist.co/character/121440/Sarada-Uchiha) The two are often at odds, with the young Uchiha valuing the Hokage post while Boruto was showing utter disdain for it. Despite that, Boruto cares for Sarada and her dream, as witnessed during the Chūnin Exams, when he voiced his desire to win to not diminish Sarada's progress to becoming Hokage.
