In episode 1 of the Boruto anime and also in chapter 1 of the Boruto manga, we saw the scene where teenager Boruto Uzumaki was fighting Kawaki.
Boruto at that time had a scar on his face that made many people wonder and curious about the cause of the scar?
1. Kawaki injured Boruto’s face
Boruto’s face was hurt
In Boruto chapter 77, Kawaki trapped Hinata and Naruto in another dimension.
And now in chapter 78, Kawaki has started trying to murder Boruto.
In the end, Kawaki still had to attack Sarada, which forced Boruto to move quickly to help his friend.
2. After Boruto was injured, Momoshiki had a chance to rise
After Kawaki succeeded in injuring Boruto, suddenly a group of people including Shikamaru, Mitsuki, Konohamaru, and Sasuke arrived there.
While Mitsuki and Shikamaru blocked Kawaki’s movements, Sasuke’s sword threatened Kawaki’s neck.
However, Momoshiki suddenly took control of Boruto’s body again to attack the group of newcomers, giving Kawaki a chance to escape.
The surprising thing here is that, although Kawaki wanted to take the lives of all the Otsutsuki, including Boruto, Momoshiki helped Kawaki.
So, before chapter 78 of the manga ended, Momoshiki said that Boruto had lost an eye.
Momoshiki said: `The end has begun.`
Considering the current situation, Boruto has lost his father and mother, he also lost his brother – Kawaki.
3. Boruto’s right eye condition in episode 1
So is Boruto’s right eye seemingly damaged starting in chapter 78, but will become Jōgan later?
In the anime, Boruto can sometimes deploy the Jōgan, but that unique eye is not highlighted in the manga.
Recently, in chapter 78, when Boruto’s right eye opened again, it became the Byakugan, a sign that Momoshiki was taking over his body.
What’s also interesting is that after this injury, Boruto will only open his right eye to use his Jōgan… or when this eye becomes the Byakugan, it will be a sign that Momoshiki is taking control of his son’s body
