that he based the Band of the Hawk on his own high school friend relationship experience. [16][28] Specifically, he mentioned that his friendship with later fellow manga artist Kouji Mori partially inspired the relationship between Guts and Griffith.

His chakra control is very advanced, able to effectively use the Rasengan after a mere few days of training while instinctively improving on it. Likewise, he can perform hand seals with one hand. [28] After adjusting to his newfound Ōtsutsuki state, Boruto became able to conceal his signature on instinct from others. [29] Boruto is noticeably fast and
skilled in taijutsu, able to quickly get behind his opponents unnoticed and perform relentless assaults through coordinated strikes from each of his limbs.
