After graduating from LA Film School, Jason's knowledge and passion for storytelling has moved him towards anime and gaming, and it won't stop there.

Summary Both Dragon Ball and Naruto's storylines attempted to do something few series have pulled off by shifting their focus to future generations, but it's something Boruto did much more effectively than Dragon Ball Z.

Dragon Ball Z is arguably one of the best anime of all time, but it made a habit of sidelining other cast members to give Goku more time to shine. While Naruto has a few incredible moments in Boruto's story, it more effectively shifts the focus to his son compared to Gohan's treatment in the sequel series, which struggled to move its focus away from his father, Goku.

If Goku had stayed dead and out of the picture, many of DBZ's arcs, which many regarded as some of the best shōnen anime arcs of all time, would have played out significantly differently. However, it's tough not to be curious about how the series storyline would have transformed if Toriyama and his staff had successfully made the shift for Gohan to take his father's mantle and keep it. This is something that the Naruto franchise did successfully with the Boruto sequel series.

Unlike Naruto, Boruto grew up with a loving family, but he struggled to find his own identity while feeling disconnected from his father, who kept incredibly busy with his role as the village's Seventh Hokage. How effectively the sequel series explores these themes is arguable, but it clearly tries something different than what the Naruto series focused on.
