Boruto Episode 9 English Subbed
Proof of Oneself
Episode Plot:
Hiashi plans to have a match with Boruto to find out whether he has really awakened the Byakugan but Hanabi offers to fight him instead, stating that he will not hold back against Boruto. The match between Hanabi and Boruto commences and Boruto quickly gets defeated by his aunt, even after using his shadow clones. Boruto asks for another match with Hanabi but gets defeated again after trying very hard. Hanabi does not see any signs of Byakugan during their matches so she assumes that he did not awaken the Byakugan yet. Hiashi asks Naruto and the others to stay at their place that night because Boruto gets exhausted. Later, after dinner, Naruto and Hiashi have a private talk about Boruto, and Naruto tells him that he believes in Boruto even though he did hasn't awaken the Byakugan yet because Boruto would not be trying so hard if he was lying about it. Hanabi goes to talk with Boruto while he recalls his dream. Boruto tells her that Naruto and the elders probably think that he is lying. Hanabi admits that she does not know about what the others are thinking but promises him that she will help him whenever he needs her help. The next day, Boruto goes to the market because he did not eat his dinner properly, where he meets Sarada. While he talks to her, he spots a person with the mysterious shadow. So, he goes after him only to discover that this person is "Kagemasa", the hero of the movie he watched in the previous episode. He discovers that Kagemasa had become chubby which had caused the production company to cancel his film's sequel. Boruto fights Kagemasa, and as he is about to get defeated by him, Sarada comes to save him and they defeat him together. The next day, at the academy, Boruto tells Shikadai and Mitsuki that he will not be able to prove that he has awakened the Byakugan but he will continue to look for a way to make everyone believe him.
