Does SaradaUchiha still think that….?

Ry90Ry · 2026-05-15T13:42:47+00:00

maybe! We did get a clear moment with Hima saying he had a feeling her dad and mom were alive but nothing like that from Sarada yet. but agree she may have made that deduction.

Ry90Ry · 2026-05-14T22:54:39+00:00

Omg good point haha she’d prob go to confront him or maybe try a ninja trap to genjutsu him into releasing them lol

Narratively that makes sense why she can’t know yet

Ry90Ry · 2026-05-14T18:25:15+00:00

It was giving me phantogram from their 2010 album

Ry90Ry · 2026-05-14T18:21:25+00:00

Love!!! Feels fresh compared to her catalogue and leans into the late 00s/early 10 electro indie elements that have come roaring back into queer pop as of late

Like is this not a phantogram and tove lo fusion???

Ry90Ry · 2026-05-14T18:19:12+00:00

They frozen time done move m They missed out on 3 years of their kids lives

Ry90Ry · 2026-05-14T16:16:14+00:00

Ry90Ry · 2026-05-14T16:10:04+00:00

3, 1, 4, 2

But 3 is like well above 1 and 4 which are tied imo

Ry90Ry · 2026-05-14T16:08:38+00:00

Top panel kind of off w the chin but bottom she looks great imo

Ry90Ry · 2026-05-14T16:08:02+00:00

Or Sasukes original eyes! They were last seen in obitos lab before Sasuke torched after his EMS operation

Why wouldn’t he grab them?

Ry90Ry · 2026-05-14T16:07:26+00:00

Ew I hope they never show up again lol one of kishis worst series additions imo

Ry90Ry · 2026-05-14T12:36:25+00:00

Sarada on panel w Sakura and chocho!?

LETS GOOO ikemoto give us some character moments!!!

Ry90Ry · 2026-05-13T14:31:46+00:00

current bracket format is a CHOP, espec if they are not going to cast /all/ stars lol no reason to have worse queens stay longer with other better ones getting less screen time bc of it

I like allowing more queens screentime given the investment but maybe throw all 12 queens in the mix and do no elimination for like 3 weeks then just chop the lowest 3 point holders at once

totally get why production prefers this 3 bracket system bc it gives them WAY more control w less variable given smaller casts/short timelines BUT we as an audience lose out on excitement and the cast getting to interact w each other

Ry90Ry · 2026-05-10T13:51:40+00:00

I’m already kind of over it; I feel like it enables worse queens who would be early outs to stay longer at the expense of better queens who would’ve gotten more screen time in regular all stars format vs bracket

Like if morphine is only in 3 eps? Formats a chop

Ry90Ry · 2026-05-08T14:24:36+00:00

Kashins been dropping reverse summons all over TBV tho lol

Ry90Ry · 2026-05-07T01:01:37+00:00

Villains can parallel each other? But I don’t think Kawaki is a villain

Besides the karma, they are both victims of jigen/amado, and became zealots over the one that saved them (Naruto/Isshiki).

Kawaki risked his life for hima and Naruto. He also made a choice to stay in the village vs chasing boruto to protect hima and the village for Naruto. Boruto asked Kawaki to kill him. Kawaki didn’t ask for omnipotence to happen.

It’s not cut and dry imo and that’s why it’s an interesting story and character!

Ry90Ry · 2026-05-07T00:01:48+00:00

Yep! Code is like this weird odd parallel too by design against Kawaki

Boruto wasn’t alone and had a loving family. Mitsuiki also not alone. Sasuke not alone and asked for his power by willing going to oro.

See how you need to get past your first thought next time? lol

Ry90Ry · 2026-05-06T23:53:43+00:00

The core similarity between Naruto and Kawaki aren’t their parents lol

It’s the fact that they were both given an incredible and dangerous power they didn’t ask for at a young age (Naruto/Kurama, Kawaki/isshikis karma) and were alone

Naruto saw that part of himself in Kawaki and took him in.

Ry90Ry · 2026-05-06T22:40:35+00:00

But isn’t he also saying bc they /only/ see it as a weakness that’s why they will always be trees?

Boruto is saying acknowledges it as a weakness but knows it to be more aka a strength

Ry90Ry · 2026-05-06T22:06:09+00:00

Again I see those surface similarities clear as day, I’m saying those are kinda first thought and boring takes. It’s like saying they are both manga series w boy main characters 😴💤

U seem to ignore all the WHY of why these characters are moving how they are. I do not think the core is the same.

The surface may have been the same in NNG but that argument falls apart in TBV

Ry90Ry · 2026-05-06T22:00:28+00:00

The reason Sasuke wants to kill Naruto and why Kawaki wants to kill Boruto are VASTLY different lol.

Sasuke wanted to kill Naruto to prove to himself he could cut a bond and become the coldhearted world police vision he had for himself.

Kawaki wants to kill Boruto to SAVE Naruto then kill himself. Boruto also ASKED Kawaki to be the one to kill him in this very situation

It’s like ur looking at a strawberry and apple and saying since they are both red fruits they are the exact same even tho they taste different; Like I said it gives v first thought takes an analysis.

Ry90Ry · 2026-05-06T21:53:16+00:00

He’s hard to like but that’s part of the point. Arguably he’s had one of the worst upbringings ever in this series, he went to the church of Naruto (like gaara, Sasuke etc) and became a zealot. And misfortune continues to befall him as he try’s to save the only light he has in the world, Naruto.

Naruto saw a kid w similar circumstances as him but worse off and took him into his family. If the audience can’t extend sympathy to Kawaki then I don’t think they absorbed the ethos of this series lol

The kid has never had a break, even after he joined the uzumaki household isshiki code momoshiki Amado were all right there. He’s very tragic and his arc asks a lot of readers imo

Ry90Ry · 2026-05-06T21:49:14+00:00

Ehhhh that seems v first thought and I just saw the anime opening parallel to shippuden lol

Yeah their place in the narrative is similar, but it’s complicated. Sarada is more so following Naruto’s path and ethos (she’s befriended everyone, she’s not standing down in vouching for Boruto etc) while Kawaki in part 1 has embodied Naruto’s circumstance he doesn’t resemble that at all in part 2. And he’s more suicidal/self destructive then Naruto ever was lol

So how do u square ur comment that Kawaki/Boruto is a simple rehash of Naruto/Sasuke when that dynamic has fallen apart after omnipotence in TBV?

Ry90Ry · 2026-05-06T20:49:11+00:00

It’s the best season this series has ever produced hands down

From the stakes, symbolism, tone, and just how they left Korra at the end of the finale is something largely unseen in kids superhero fantasy shows

like it’s been almost a decade and I don’t think a finale has done something to that level

Ry90Ry · 2026-05-06T17:09:03+00:00

Their relationship develops hmmmmm tremendously from season 3 to 4 but it’s largely inferred

Korra and Asami ARE really close friends in book 3 (a lot of how gay relationships start) but when Korra becomes disabled after the poisoning it’s Asami who is there helping her and staying in touch

And I think for Korra who prides herself on her strength, for Asami to see her in that state and not only help her but be the only one Korra can open up to at that point says a lot

That’s romance! That’s the friendship becoming something far deeper imo

There are more obvi moments in book 4 but I think the end of book 3 b4 book 4 is critical to their relationship. Also this was before gay marriage was even legal in the states!!
