If anyone is wondering, yes I saw the new Sarada design and yes it is actually pretty great. Why Ikemoto couldn’t have given 13-yr old Sarada shorts instead of older Sarada, idk, but I love what we have now. The leg warmers and chunky heels are 👌🏽 the weapon holster without the bandages is like 🙄 but it’ll do. Over all, give it up for Ikemoto and the team for not fking it up as bad as it could have been 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 #boruto #sarada #borutotimeskip

I'm calling it now! Ickimoto will draw Sarada in booty shorts or a mini skirt. It's why he only drew the shoulder so that he wouldn't face backlash.

Even boruto's outfit is ridiculous ☠ i mean come on is he going to fight or to the fashion week 💀

Sometimes i get annoyed when people complain about how artists portray female characters. Specially when i myself like to draw my own characters with more revealing clothes. I don't shy away from it. However there are situations like Ikemoto with Sarada and Horikoshi Kouhei with Momo, that are just indefensible... 😢

Small note, Obito needed goggles when he was a kid because his vision wasn't the best (goggles instead of glasses because they don't fall off). Obito either grew out of it as he got older or doesn't need them when he activates his Sharingan and just has that active 24/7 (not unusual for powerful Uchiha). That said, being in a club with mr. immortal Madara 2.0 isn't anything to be shamed of. I like the idea of her wearing glasses and taking them off when her Sharingan is active, pretty cool IMO.

It is so adorable! Cause the original designs look more like creepy child fashion models. I love how you gave the shoes flat platform

I'm glad we all acknowledge that Sakura is a single mom😂

Compared to Noelle, Lucy, Urahime, and Bulma, her outfit is fine and it’s tamed. She is a rebellious teenager standing up for her falsely accused friend/potential love interest. In real-life teenage girls her age wear stuff like that all the time, even in parties.

These designs turned out amazing!! I love them 😊❤

I just don't like her outfit. Before the time skip or after the time skip. I wouldn't even consider it inappropriate if people didn't point it out and mentioned it. I just find it bad, not good aesthetically.

OBITO UCHIHA, yeah that guy who was hacker in Shinobi world. He also had eye sight problem

I love your redesign

7:32 I think in your drawing Sarada has too wide hips and an adult figure. Still, she is 12-13 years old and has a more childish and thin body. Maybe this is what she would have looked like at 16. Although maybe even as an adult she would have a thinner body composition since her parents are slender

I love your designs

They going for Bayo vibe. That not bad idea.

Yes! My girl! She deserves so much better from the narrative, and the new look is *so cute*!

Boruto characters' fashion is closer to kpop fashion than Naruto's fashion.

Everyday more and more they keep looking similar to Jojo. I mean not to be that guy but the art style the poses and finally even there closes.

Absolutely love your redesign way better than what we actually got. I don't know, not a huge fan of Sarada showing so much leg for her time skip design considering her manga outfit you know but maybe it'll grow on me. I honestly wish they used your design though, super badass

At 14 she is dressed like a stripper Kakashi at 14 was not only dressed but literally was a hired serial killer. Yeah yeah peacefull era, so kids now do not learn arts of war and assasination but the art and design. Sarada is baddas, sumire is cool amd hima is hella cute

i did saw peole defned her outfit i like the disgin you made for her and you enard a sub

Hey DayDay, my name is Muna and I was wondering if you could do a video on Ichihime from Bleach. It is not as bad as Sasusaku, but it does have problematic elements similar to it. It's just a suggestion. Thanks.

These designs are cool

👏

Ikepedo

How bout pixie hair cut ?

honestly, naruto is good, but kishimoto is awful at designs and he nerfed looks and personalities of his characters in boruto.

To be completely honest, it looks the same.

I love both designs lol

i dont think its the artist that wants to sexualize sarada its just the young fanbase... sexualization exist in anime because its popular. i believe the only reason kishimoto hasnt had many good female characters is because he slaps woman on all his less important roles. simply because that way they might be able to keep attention. however he also then goes and slaps men on all the good roles to have a good balance. i dont think its important to have a good balance in your manga and a 80% female cast would have done just fine. if that is what keeps viewers attention

Meep

1. Really triggers me when people refer to Sarada's outfit a strippers', just because they don't like it. Just say you don't like it. Because strippers in my area definitely don't look like that. And if _this_ made you gasp, come find out what real strippers wear, and you just might have an aneurysm. 2. There was an explanation for Sarada's eyesight. The first reason was merely for design purposes to make her stand out and not be a Sasuke clone in face, they say. But they fleshed it out on the anime (and possibly the spinoff manga from Kishimoto), where they explained that she had a terrible sickness as a child due to her sharingan activating way too early because of Sasuke's absence/leaving. Therefore, affecting her eyesight. Might be a pull in the ass, but hey it's a canon explanation and what you're looking for. Where have you been about this, tho? It's been out for years. Either you just weren't looking hard enough, or you didn't even try. 3. I personally love the anime version of Ikemoto's design, since they made it more pg - even more so if they had given her shorts from the start. But I love the scarf, tube top, and bag sm. I don't think it's out of character for her to have a fashion sense that includes scarves and cute bags with tassels (especially if it's the trend). But we could fight head canon all we want and none would let up, so I digress. The reason I probably like the first design in the anime, is because it's completely _just her._ I personally don't like the next gen looking too much like their parents. Sure, they can have a homage of some sort, like her gloves (but even that she made her own with having them asymmetrical) and signature red color. But I don't want their whole look to just be based off of their parents entirely. It doesn't make them feel real; comes across as "hey! This is so-and-so's child! Can you tell by the fusion of their clothes?". That's why I also really like Inojin, Chocho, Boruto, and maybe even Shikadai. Inojin is just completely his own character with his overalls and intentional sarcasm and jibes. Chocho even more so with her kindness and overt confidence in her looks and abilities unlike her father. And Boruto has flaws to counter his good personality and talent. I love how well-rounded they are (although more so in the anime). And so Sarada being her kind and sensible self with confidence to wear stylish clothes, not to simp for someone or be emo, really charms me. 4. "Something about Naruto was that the women were not sexualized" Is the boldest faced lie I've ever heard 😭. Weren't both female kage's sex appeal always pointed out? One of them literally had it as a power. And I guess we don't include the movie where they had Hinata's tits pushed out under the glistening sun, since you only mentioned the series. But what about that blonde messenger, Samui Kumogakure? The whole frame focuses on her breasts every time she's on. And let's not even talk about Karin, her whole thing is about being a simp and wanting to pimp herself for Sazgay. Not to mention the amount of women Jiraya-the-pervert peeked from the first series. Let's also ignore any onsen scenes entirely since it had men in there too, so, equality right? (not that it matters that they portray the boys being goofy while the girls part focuses on their bodies, more specifically how Sakura is flat and Hinata's well endowned). And you might say "oh, but that's mostly the older women" and you'd be right, but does that make it ok no matter their age? Disregarding sexualization entirely, Naruto's biggest problem involving women isn't sexualization, it's sexism. Which is more offending to me imo. None of them, not even Sakura, a lead, ever matched with Naruto and Sasuke. But it _is_ shounen, so I shouldn't be surprised really. And that's another topic entirely. 5. Ikemoto's line art is weak?? Where? If anything's weak about him as an artist, it would be his workflow and panel composition. But line art? 6. Lastly, while I may agree to the general consensus that Sarada shouldn't be sexualized. I don't agree to hating every part of her design. That, and people slandering her character. As if she's a real person and chose what she wears. And then proceed to use that as a reason to hate the series and Ikemoto's designs, as I believe that to be his strongest point. No matter how questionable one character's design may be. And I think content like this just fuels this fire and inadvertently make you an ally to those people, despite your intentions. It's just very damaging.

it looks the same in my opinion

The fact we didn't even see the full official outfit says alot about you..

All their outfits somehow look so crappy.

Isn't it interesting how ethnocentrism leads YOU to judge other cultures through YOUR own lens. Japan is different. And will take no shit from Americans on how they should do what they do.

No offense but this is hardly better tbh like she jsut looks like that goth gf from those memes now xD.
