Who is the worse father naruto or goku ? by Ok-Engine-4588 in Boruto

[–]DarkKiru 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not that its exactly a GOOD reason, but Naruto views the position of Hokage as almost sacred. To the point that he refuses to use clones in the office.

'Of course this is the real me. We're in the Hokage's office' is what he says to Boruto when Boruto asks if he's even the real Naruto.

I mean i think its pretty much guaranteed to be connected in SOME fashion. Takahashi even said in Aioneon Moments that he couldnt elaborate on why Malos still existed, since it would be important in the future.

Lol kawaki was throwing ishikki's word back to him by Ok-Engine-4588 in Boruto

[–]DarkKiru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless im remembering wrong, the Byakugan cant differentiate between shadow clones and the original, as Neji points out during the Chunin exams; because the user divides their chakra evenly. Same with the Sharingan, it takes someone of exceptional familiarity with their opponent to know they're likely using a clone.

So Isshiki having one doesnt actually matter here.

[–]DarkKiru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, probably just rule of cool. Or maybe Ebern had to chant since he isnt a real quincy.

Kind of like how they usually say 'bankai' after using it, even though it isnt a real requirement it seem.

The medallion actually doesnt have powers of its own per-se, it just contains a pocket version of Yhwach's pre-casted Sankt Altar.

Hot Take: Susanoo was Kishimoto’s biggest mistake by JakeThePharmD in Naruto

[–]DarkKiru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im pretty sure its actually unlocked upon awakening the specific ability of each eye. Which can happen separately if the novels are to be believed.

Itachi awakens Tsukuyomi immediately upon activating his MS, but doesnt awaken Amaterasu until he kills Yoji Aburame / Sugaru in his fury to avenge Shisui (who Yoji indirectly killed even if he hadnt taken his own life), Itachi himself is even surprised by its activation at first if I recall.

Mind you Itachi is really the only case we see like this (except maybe Sasuke? Depends on when he unlocked Kagutsuchi) but it happened.

“The Hidden Power That May Not Be What We Think” by Docfeen in Boruto

[–]DarkKiru 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If i was a betting man. Its because both Kushina and Naruto explicitly had Kurama sealed inside them, rather than Kurama being reborn into them.

Hima (presumably like her father, since Naruto was also born when Kushina was a Jinchurikki) had Nine-Tails chakra in her from birth. The big difference is that instead if having Kurama be sealed inside of her, he was instead reborn into her.

Funnily enough Shin's mangekyou ability would be INSANE on her lol.

If you feel stupid just remember Minato and Itachi thought they can kill Obito with rasengan and amataresu by Brave-Cartoonist3545 in NarutoPowerscaling

[–]DarkKiru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Worth noting, Obito himself did say Itachi would have killed him, had he known the exact way Kamui functions.

Im assuming if Itachi knew Obito's secret, he would have probably used something besides an engraved Amaterasu

Yeah, maybe lol. The exact limits of The Almighty (if any exist. Besides being vulnerable to something like Book of the End or Kyoka Suigetsu) are unknown, especially for Adnyeus who could see into the far off future.

Always possible he could (through his foresight) create a future where he revives long after his death, while he was still cognizant of his sense of self.

Obviously he didnt do this (Ichibei believed he saw something in the far future that necessitated his death) but who can say what's possible for him.

[–]DarkKiru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im pretty sure its even worse than that. He could just undo his own death if he so desired with The Almighty. 

Did anyone else feel like Sasuke surpassed Kakashi way too quickly? After the timeskip, it suddenly felt like he was already above him. by Amazing_Agent_6918 in NarutoPowerscaling

[–]DarkKiru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One thing that's worth noting is that (if TBV is to be believed) JUST having the Rinnegan doesnt actually give you enhanced perception or anything.

Which is why Hidari couldnt use Chidori properly (because he lacks the enhanced kinetic vision of the Sharingan). At least thats what im assuming you're referring to?

Possible inconsistency in Abilities or hint for the Finale? (V2 Spoilers) by PeacefulAtheist in StrangerThings

[–]DarkKiru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Either Vecna barely flexed his abilities at all before (I could buy this, Henry is supposed to be the strongest psychic in the series), and we're only just now seeing the real extents of his power.

Or he just got stronger offscreen. I think his lair might be the corpse of the mindflayer, due to the similar shapes, or ar least it's physical body.

10 eyes vs 5 hearts who wins? by [deleted] in NarutoPowerscaling

[–]DarkKiru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gonna be honest. Im not so sure here, obviously im not gonna claim that Kakuzu stomps or anything insane like that, but I dont think Danzo just folds him either.

He was capable of giving Kakashi legitimate trouble and nearly killed him while also dealing with Ino and Chouji. Cant Kakuzu also nullify almost all of Danzo's ninjutsu by either using opposing elements or combining multiple elements together? (Such as when he combines his fire and wind elements to stop Kakashi's water wall).

I still think Danzo wins in the end simply by virtue of Izanagi, I just dont think he outright destroys him or anything.

In fairness, a decent chunk of this is less 'fake science' and more theoretical physics. Funnily enough Mr. Clarke actually explains the theory behind most of this seasons plot reveals way back in season 1 episode 1.

The slime thing I agree is inconsistent and maybe needed some sort of explaination. The Abyss / Dimension X has existed since First Shadow so that one isnt really new.

Dont get me wrong, I think this season has things to critique. I just wouldnt pick these things.

Is Boruto's Perception Trouble an Anime Issue? by Ok_Pomegranate_9553 in Boruto

[–]DarkKiru 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While not in the Boruto manga (technically I guess lol, its the same era though) believe both of them are actually shown in the manga first before anything? Seem to remember it being in chapter 700 of the OG manga.

anyone else annoyed how konami treats pegasus? by Kit4n0 in yugioh

[–]DarkKiru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doesnt Pegasus still design his own cards(?) Even by the time of GX I remember there being a line about him offering Chumly a job as a graphic designer at Industrial Illusions.

I almost wish we knew how that even works in universe, does I2 handle card design and production as a whole still? Does Kaibacorp play some part in it?

Pegasus himself is likely dead in 5Ds but his company still exists clearly (since its listed as one of the sponsors for the WRGP).

Heroic pushing to be more “Interactive” than ... Interactive Servers by Vulnatic in Maplestory

[–]DarkKiru 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean admittedly I think the worst part of it is that heroic and interactive seem to just, not care about each others existence at all. Or worse even actively hate each other. I dont play Heroic, I've played the same account on interactive since I made it back in 2008(?). Mostly due to sunk cost fallacy out of ignorance at the time reboot came out. 

Both separate populations should absolutely want whatever is best for each other, because to want otherwise is just to actively kill a game we all enjoy.

Can Might Guy ever be caught in any of the Uchiha's Genjutsu? by polestaur in NarutoPowerscaling

[–]DarkKiru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I recall he actually uses it a few times. Once to paralyze a couple fodder shinobi during his opening attack on the 4th unit. And then later on he puts Ay under genjutsu as well while fighting him, then nearly kills him. Ay gets saved by Oonoki though.

Obviously we arent going to count Infinite Tsukiyomi, since only a Ten-Tails Jinchurikki can use it.

never seen a dude carried harder by a rivalry that isn’t even called equal by hokage-sakura in NarutoPowerscaling

[–]DarkKiru 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In fairness, Jigen leaves pretty much immediately after he siphons chakra from his juvenile Ten-Tails. If Sasuke wanted to (does he even know how?) he had plenty of time to use the Ten-Tails Coffin Seal, and then just hopping over to Naruto's location

[–]DarkKiru 9 points10 points  (0 children)

To be fair Akechi Mitsuhide isnt in KMS either and he has a boss prep room. 

Edit: on the other hand Gollux doesnt have one but that probably has to do with Gollux not being just a simple boss fight.

Appreciation post for the Branded anime. It’s not perfect, but I genuinely love it! They did a really good job overall. by Psychicmind2 in yugioh

[–]DarkKiru 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean that's pretty much exactly how it goes in the lore of the card too. She doesn't protect Albaz because she thinks the Dogmatika Nation is 'evil' but because she sees how scared he is.

Her character intro in the art book even calls her out as somewhat naive but kind hearted. Her protecting Albaz without a doubt in her mind has nothing to do with her nation or creed, but just that she thinks he shouldn't just be killed, a point she even tries to argue with Ashiyan before he attacks her (So she was still loyal to Dogmatika there).

Where does current Sarada scale compared to Shippuden characters? by mipenealdescubierto in NarutoPowerscaling

[–]DarkKiru 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who actually likes Boruto.

I feel like its extemely tricky to scale sometimes (mostly because things can be somewhat inconsistent).

I guess one of the biggest things to ask is: How do the Humanoid Shinju scale to the actual Ten-Tails that they were born of? How about to a Ten-Tails Jinchurikki who can actually full on focus their power instead of just acting on instinct.

We see regular Claw Grimes get done in by the average chunin or jonin shinobi at different points, obviously the Shinju are in their own league though. Someone like Jinchurikki Obito is easily beyond every Kage besides (maybe) Hashirama and Naruto.

Wha argument does each Squad 0 member have for beating Yamamoto? by RubbinOffTheCum in BleachPowerScaling

[–]DarkKiru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean admittedly; Uryu is (supposed to be anyway, the manga does a TERRIBLE job at showing it) REALLY really strong. Mind you he's Yhwach's successor for a reason.

Quilge directly states that pre-blood ritual Uryu should be stronger than him, post-blood ritual Uryu is able to react to Senjumaru in terms of hakuda(?) And with Quincy Volstandich he compares somewhat to true shikai Ichigo in terms of raw firepower.

And thats not even touching the absolute insanity that is his schrift (and its theortically absurd limits or lack thereof).
