I miss the old one piece some times and its art style.

I get that the art style had to evolve and change from the water gel style to the better hd animation.

I miss the cool, suave Sanji, who may have obsessed about girls, but not to the extent that he could die from it. Sanji used to be all cool and suave, and he'd flirt, but when the girl said no he'd move on, now he just seems like a desperate pervert.
miss the short haired, small boobed Nami, who wasn't just fanservice.Nami used to be a caring person with a sassy side and a taste for treasure, now she's just a self centered bitch.
Most importantly I miss the Zoro who would smile and have a heart of gold under all that bad ass exterior. Zoro used to be a tough guy, but he was still up for fun, now he's a straight up kill some fool serious guy 95% of the time, and when he isn't he's either drinking or fighting someone who's frankly beneath him or belittling others.

I will always love One Piece and the crew, both old and new, but l'll also miss the days when the original five were just kids with big dreams on a big sea.

My issue with boruto as a manga

Every time the latest chapter of Boruto: Two Blue Vortex comes out, I find myself reading it almost out of a sense of obligation. I still care deeply about the Naruto/Boruto story, and because this is a continuation of a series that has been loved for decades, I genuinely want to see it reach a satisfying conclusion. However, with each new chapter, I increasingly find myself wondering: Does the story actually know where it is going, or is it simply delaying the inevitable answers?
The central mysteries of Two Blue Vortex have enormous potential. Boruto’s altered fate, the omnipotence phenomenon, Kawaki’s obsession with protecting Naruto, the Divine Trees, the Ōtsutsuki, the Jougan, Kashin Koji’s future visions, and the true significance of Boruto’s new abilities could all form the foundation of an incredible final act. Yet despite the amount of information being introduced, the actual connections between these mysteries and the ultimate direction of the story remain difficult to understand.
Boruto has essentially lost his entire previous life. His family has been taken from him, his reputation has been destroyed, his friends have been manipulated into believing a false reality, and he has spent years being hunted. Those circumstances should have an enormous impact on his mentality.

The problem isn’t that Two Blue Vortex is mysterious. Mystery is one of the strengths of the Naruto franchise. The problem is that the story sometimes gives the impression that new mysteries are being added faster than existing ones and most major situations carry no dire consequences.
•example.
Injonin should have gone blind permanently after destroying his eyes with the new mind hypnosis jutsu.

The pacing is horrendous . Months can pass between chapters, yet individual chapters sometimes feel as though they contain relatively little forward movement. Important characters disappear for extended periods, major conflicts are interrupted, and certain developments that should carry enormous emotional weight are quickly pushed aside for the next plot point.

Two Blue Vortex has introduced incredibly powerful abilities, but raw power alone does not create memorable fights.When characters can reach absurd levels of strength, battles need increasingly clever strategy and emotional stakes to compensate. Otherwise, fights can become demonstrations of new abilities rather than genuine conflicts between characters.

This is particularly noticeable with the older generation.

In my opinion rokuhira has a similar vibe to jiraya (with out perversion)

Well jiraya likes toads , rokuhira likes gold fish and both characters are comedic relief yet very important to the story. And of coarse they masters of their craft.
