The Hidden Mist Village's history plays a significant role in shaping its current state in Boruto. The village has a dark past characterized by the "Blood Mist" era, where young ninja were forced to kill their comrades in order to graduate from the academy. This traumatic history has led to a reputation of brutality and fear associated with the Hidden Mist Village.
In Boruto, we see that the Hidden Mist Village has undergone significant reforms and efforts to move past its violent history. Under the leadership of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, the village has focused on rebuilding its image and fostering a new generation of ninja who uphold values of teamwork and cooperation. Despite the progress, remnants of the village's dark past still linger, impacting the attitudes and perceptions of outsiders towards the Hidden Mist Village. The village continues to struggle with its reputation and works towards redemption through its actions and alliances with other villages.
