What can fans expect from Boruto episode 272?
Despite his best efforts, Kawaki was incapable of preventing Hana’s dark side from attacking Kae. The teacher took advantage of the trust her students put in her to trap them inside the island. With her main objective out of the way, the former assassin has all the time in the world to dispose of the witnesses. It is now up to Kawaki and his friends to defeat Hana’s dark half.
Sadly, Boruto episode 272 will be hard to watch for Kawaki fans. The boy will most likely blame himself for allowing Kae to die. Kawaki tried to distance himself from the princess, pretending that he was not her friend.
Nonetheless, with the reaction he had during episode 271, it was clear that he cared deeply for her. Himawari will have to keep her brother under control.
Boruto episode 272 could also reveal that Kae was not killed during the previous episode’s ending. Hana attacked the princess with a Kunai but no blood was spilled. Fans believe that the princess could have somehow survived. The Land of Bamboo Minister has already been apprehended. It is possible that Hana’s mission changed once her master was captured.
Lastly, fans can expect the students in Hana’s class to demonstrate their abilities in Boruto episode 272. The community has been waiting for weeks for a glimpse at the powers this new generation of Shinobi possesses. The kids will have to work together if they want to survive every trap that Hana has prepared for them.
What happened in the last episode?
Boruto episode 271 began with Hana and her students arriving at an uninhabited island for survival training. The woman, who was still possessed by her evil half, tricked the students into believing that a rogue ninja was living in the place. The students were scared but still determined to survive the attack.
Once everyone was scared and tired, Hana manipulated Kae to follow her deep into the forest. Kawaki took notice of this and began following the duo. The teacher stopped faking and revealed her dark self to the boy. She took the princess into her arms and carried her into a bridge. Kawaki and Himawari arrived just in time to see the teacher drive a Kunai into Kae’s neck.
