Center
Primary
The film's central conflict revolves around generational differences and personal growth, but its championed solution emphasizes hard work, discipline, and respect for tradition over shortcuts and technological reliance, subtly aligning with conservative values.
The film's casting reflects the inherent diversity of its Japanese anime origin, without explicit recasting of traditionally white roles. The narrative frames its predominantly male protagonists and heterosexual relationships in a neutral or positive light, without centering on explicit DEI critiques.
Secondary
The film features Sarada Uchiha, who demonstrates her physical combat abilities and Sharingan to defeat a male opponent in a direct, close-quarters fight during the Chunin Exams.
Boruto: Naruto the Movie primarily focuses on the father-son dynamic between Boruto and Naruto, alongside an action-oriented plot involving the Chunin Exams and an external threat. The film does not feature any explicitly identified LGBTQ+ characters, relationships, or themes, resulting in no portrayal to evaluate.
The film features established characters from the Naruto franchise and introduces new ones, all of whom maintain their canonical or initially established genders without any changes from prior source material or historical context.
This film is an original story within the established Naruto universe, featuring characters consistent with their prior canonical depictions. No characters established as one race in the source material are portrayed as a different race.
