'Boruto: Naruto Next Generations' Episode 2: Boruto Makes an Enemy, Accused of Relying on Father's Legacy
The journey of Naruto's iron-willed son Boruto Uzumaki in the small screen has begun with the premiere of "Boruto: Naruto Next Generations."
The anime has officially launched in Japan today, but fans in the United States can get into all the action via Hulu, which streamed the first episode the same time it was released in the country.
Future episodes of "Boruto: Naruto Next Generations" will also be released there every Wednesday, available for viewing to those who are subscribed to the streaming company.

Hulu partnered with Viz Media in order to provide English-dubbed versions of the episodes. With that in mind, fans can expect "Boruto: Naruto Next Generations" episode 2 to drop next week.
The installment is titled "The Hokage's Son." Here, it will become clear that being the son of the seventh Hokage is not without its issues, but the young Uzumaki is not fazed by such.
Inojin Yamanaka is not very fond of Boruto as seen in the promo for "Boruto: Naruto Next Generations" episode 2 as he accused him of "riding on the Hokage's coat tails."
"I don't even consider you worthy of my trust," Inojin tells him. While he claims he did not mean to "touch a nerve" with his remark, it looks like he was not at all sorry about the things he said.
Inojin first appeared in "Boruto: Naruto the Movie." While he and Boruto seem to get along, he is not always on board with the latter's tendency to take a shortcut as much as possible by cheating.
Inojin's remarks in "Boruto: Naruto Next Generations" episode 2 might fuel Boruto to try harder and not just rely on his father being the Hokage.
Boruto can be seen confronting him in the promo, but he also appears to be in combat with another student in this exciting installment.
"Boruto: Naruto Next Generations" episode 2, "The Hokage's Son," airs Wednesday, April 12, on TV Tokyo and Hulu. Crunchyroll also streams the anime.
