With Boruto chapter 77 spoilers out, fans can finally see the aftermath of Kawaki realizing that Boruto was able to make contact with Momoshiki. The spoilers revealed a whole lot of information as the manga finally seems to have initiated its stride towards the time-skip, given that Kawaki ends up doing the unfathomable.
However, Boruto chapter 77 spoilers did end up creating quite a major debate in the fanbase as Hinata was seen slapping Kawaki. The context surrounding the story has sparked a huge uproar among fans, who are now arguing whether it was right for Hinata to have done the same.

Hinata slapping Kawaki in Boruto chapter 77 causes arguments on Twitter
Trending
To provide some context to fans, in Boruto chapter 77, Kawaki was seen leaving the house where he, Boruto, Eida, and Daemon were to stay together. He is later seen returning home, i.e., to the Uzumaki house, where he reiterates his intention to kill Boruto for being controlled by Momoshiki Otsutsuki. He also expressed his guilt for having failed at the same time in his earlier attempt.
This causes Hinata to snap as she slaps Kawaki for wanting to kill his brother. Fans should know that this is the first time Hinata has heard that Kawaki had earlier tried to kill her son. Hearing that, as well as his intent to kill him the second time, caused her to snap.
She still notably thinks of Kawaki as her own son as she herself refers to him as Boruto's brother. However, the fanbase started arguing over the incident.
Initially, a good portion of the fandom was angry at Hinata for slapping Kawaki. They didn't feel it was right for Hinata to do so as Kawaki was a victim of child abuse. Thus, slapping him would only make the situation worse.
However, other fans didn't see the point in that argument, given that Hinata wasn't abusing him, but rather disciplining him for wanting to kill her own son. In fact, some fans were actually glad that Kawaki got slapped, as there have been several instances in the past where he has crossed the line.
Fans also observed how Hinata still thought of Kawaki as her own child, given that she referred to him as Boruto's brother in Boruto chapter 77. They believed that Hinata was right, given that it was only natural for a mother to slap her stepson for feeling guilty over not being able to kill her real son. That too, she only realized now that Kawaki had attempted to do the same earlier as well.
In fact, fans believe that Naruto himself would have done the same if it wasn't for Hinata. It was quite evident how Kawaki was descending into darkness, and Hinata could evidently sense that.
Fans even pointed out the hypocrisy with which Hinata was being treated. Previously, Sakura was seen destroying her entire house, simply for being annoyed over the fact that her daughter Sarada wanted to know more about her father Sasuke Uchiha.
Sakura, therefore, endangered her child over wanting to know the most basic stuff, yet the fanbase didn't react in the same manner back then. However, now that Hinata has slapped Kawaki for expressing his intent to kill her son, she is being labeled the child abuser.
Maybe, fans will have to wait until Boruto chapter 77 is officially released for some further context.
