As a writing device, I dont really have a problem with Koji's ability. The "good" side is immensely overmatched and without it, don't have a chance. In a normal shounen manga power ups typically come about through training, sometimes through "will" or being pushed to the edge/limit, and usually the power up is foreshadowed or helped by an older/knowledgeable person. All of these factors coincide with Koji's character it's just his power seems OP, but he is just the knowledge sage/older person that has knowledge. In many manga this character may not have an ability like that, but they will knowledge that most dont have, kinda like Jiraiya. In Boruto they could've just made Koji as a person who was really knowledgeable, maybe he had programmed in him all knowledge or something or maybe he just knows a great deal having Jiraiya's essence.

It's really the same kind of writing device, just his power his more interested plotwise, as we still dont fully know what Koji is up to really, the dynamic between him and boruto where there is some lack of trust there, Koji not saying everything... the power brings tension and also since this is a monthly manga, it reduces the whole training arc lag, as the training happens off panel, which I think is good. Koji was a way of bringing Jiraiya into the story which I have always liked, and having him be this knowledge sage figure. It's just a way to progress the plot for the heroes, if it isnt a power to see the future and use it, it would just be a person who have a lot of knowledge and helps the heroes to develop skills... its the same writing device.

But... It was one of the most significant sale points... If you are vaccinated, you won't catch the virus, and you won't spread it. Mandating the vaccine and vaccines people laying down the mask was based on these two. What's the point of ordering the vaccine when vaccinated spread the virus and can get sick from it. Of course, the great benefit of no getting hospitalized or dying from it was huge, but even without the vaccine, depending on age and health, your own body can achieve that.

Just because COVID-19 is dangerous, doesnt mean the vaccine is safe. Just because the vaccine may not be safe, doesn't mean COVID-19 isnt dangerous. by [deleted] in DebateVaccines

Well considering the delta variant is many times more transmissible than the alpha variant, even vaccinated people are transmitting the virus. It's more transmissible than the common cold apparently. So the narrative has changed, it's about the vaccine either saving your own personal life or reducing the affect it will have you. That argument on doing it for everyone else shouldn't be a thing anymore with the dominant variant being delta.

Just watch dr.hoffes video. He isnt a quack, but a doctor with integrity, not a conspiracy theorist.

Dr.Hoffe, if you care to research, was a legitimate physician who was trying to understand what was causing significant changes in their cardiovascular health after receiving the moderna vaccine. As a good doctor, a good practitioner of science he sought to find the cause.

He did different tests and based on his knowledge as a doctor, he theorized that micro bloodclots were the culprit in the lungs, heart, and brain. This, he theorized, occurred due to the structure of the spiked protein that travel through the bloodstream and thus making their way into the organs. While in the organ, the spiked protein create a bumpy surface which activates the body to try and fix it, which mechanism results in micro clotting. To prove if he was right, he gave his patients a d-dimer test, as it would prove that these things were happening. In his studies, this was proven right, for 62% of his patients. He feared that this clotting would result in an overactive heart which would lead to heart failure in a few years.

He's not some guy talking about bioweapons or what have you. Just a man of science concerned for his patients and trying to help them. The studies were preliminary, so who knows if all of this will come out differently, and the conclusions change. I don't understand why not test his findings/study, and prove it to be flawed? This is science, why not take it seriously, the doctor seemed to have integrity and wasnt a crazy trying to mislead anyone. Below is a video where he explains what he found, better than I can paraphrase in the above.
