At the Hokage’s office, Shikamaru Nara (Naruto’s advisor) scolds Naruto for overworking himself. Naruto admits he wants to spend time with his family but simply has too much paperwork.
For a moment, Boruto wanted to yell. To say it’s too late . Instead, he just threw his father a practice kunai.
Episode 18 is a slow-paced, emotional episode. It lacks the high-octane fights of the previous arcs but delivers a necessary punch to the gut regarding the reality of adulthood responsibilities. It reframes Naruto from a "perfect hero" into a flawed father, setting the stage for the character growth both he and Boruto must undergo.
While often labeled as "filler" by fans, this episode is widely praised for its emotional depth and character development. It humanizes Naruto as a father struggling to balance his dream and his family, while showcasing the Uzumaki family's unique and sometimes chaotic bond. Boruto Episode 18 Review
