Boruto: Naruto Next Generations
tv·TV-14·Apr 5, 2017·
Boruto scores a pristine 1/10 wokeness for pure ninja action, family drama, and escapist fun—zero politics, DEI, or social lectures, just merit-based storytelling.
"Boruto: Naruto Next Generations" is a shonen anime sequel to Naruto, centering on ninja action, family bonds, personal growth, generational conflicts like Boruto's resentment toward his busy Hokage father, and neutral explorations of technology versus tradition, all delivered as pure escapist entertainment.
The series features an all-Japanese voice cast with no DEI-driven changes, organically competent female characters like Sarada and Sumire without forced empowerment or LGBTQ+ agendas, and maintains an apolitical, merit-based ethos under Masashi Kishimoto's influence. It earns a 1/10 content rating for its complete avoidance of progressive ideologies, identity politics, or social justice lectures, with audience complaints limited to pacing and filler rather than 'woke' elements, even drawing criticism from progressive outlets for upholding traditional roles.
Methodology: Each score synthesizes audience discourse, critic and aggregator reception, and press coverage — weighed against the work itself, not any single source.
