Wait so no one ever thought to like try sealing jutsu for karma? if it worked for curse mark why not give it a shot with karma then?
 
Since Naruto had resolved to kill his own son as a last resort, I'd imagine all other options like fuinjutsu were considered useless

I absolutely love the scene in the anime with him showing the conflict/turmoil he is feeling when the other Kage said they might need to kill his son

One of those things Boruto gets right is Naruto and Sasuke's character ( at least a good 90% of the time )

Agreed. Tho alot of people will fight you on this take specifically regarding Naruto's parenting in early Boruto due to it being "so out of character" for him, when imo it's completely in character but that's a whole other can of worms 🥱

I assume you mean the Evil Sealing Method.
While the Karma and Curse Mark are pretty similar in giving power and also housing the soul/consciousness of another being eating away at the user, I don't believe the ESM would work.
It fundamentally works by relying on the recipient's strength of will and belief that it would work. Seeing as Boruto was resigned to dying more than a few times, I don't believe he'd be able to invoke enough willpower to constantly fight off Momoshiki who was more actively trying to take over his body from the Karma more than Orochimaru was from the Curse Mark.
That's my take on it anyway.
 
I've been slowly translating and reading the Boruto novels and they're really good tbh. There's always narrator dialogue and inner dialogue that we see from characters that we don't get (but are implied) in the anime.

I've already known this from the anime, but the novel in particular does a good job showcasing Mitsuki's character and his goals. Mitsuki feels so connected to Boruto and calls him his "Sun" because he, just like Boruto, chose to differ from the expectations of their family and those around them. Just as Boruto doesn't want to become Hokage like his dad and forge his own path without abandoning those he loves (as he perceives the Hokage role does to Naruto) despite everyone expecting him to follow under Naruto's footsteps (this also explains why Boruto has so much conviction in saving those who can't help themselves regardless of the circumstance and is so willing to prove himself different from what the Hokage looks like in his eyes, which in its own way makes him very similar to Naruto in that regard, but the reasoning is different - which is very important) -

Mitsuki also chose his own answer when he was given two options between sticking with Orochimaru or joining Log - he chose his own path and left on his own. It explains why Orochimaru gave him a scroll that had a picture of Boruto because Orochimaru's whole goal in creating Mitsuki was for him to "do what he [Orochimaru] couldn't do". It recontextualizes Orochimaru as well as a character who likely regrets the mistakes of his past, throwing away his old bonds in search of power. Mitsuki didn't do that, instead he chose to forge his own path and found Boruto who is very opposite of Orochimaru. Orochimaru very likely chose Boruto as Mitsuki's "Sun", who's light can help Mitsuki shine within the darkness, because he knew that if anybody could do it, it would be Naruto's son, because he saw the effect that Naruto had on Sasuke (whom Orochimaru had influenced and persuaded to cut those said bonds).
 
Why did Sasuke choose to not get a new arm when he knows he has to defend the world from momoshiki

Is he special
 
Good ass question honestly, at least if there's a way around Daemon's reflection

Kawaki(1) targets Jigen

Baryon Mode Naruto(1) targets Isshiki. Now, I want us to note beforehand that Naruto was already injured and exhausted when he fought Isshiki in Baryon Mode, so he's probably got more in him. He was nearly unconscious, so in peak condition, he'd be stronger, and possibly able to fight after for a bit,

Kashin Koji(1) targets Jigen

Hidari(1) targets Sasuke

Isshiki(2) targets Kawaki

3-Eye Juubidara(2) targets Naruto

Code(2) targets Boruto

Mamushi(2) targets Eida

Jigen(3) targets Kawaki

Boruto(3) targets Isshiki

Eida(3) remains stationary

Ryu(3) targets Kawaki

Fused Momo(4) targets Naruto

Sasuke(4) targets Jigen

Daemon(4) targets Mamushi

Matsuri(4) targets Boruto


Fights:

1. Isshiki(2), Juubidara(2), and Code(2) vs Boruto(3) vs Baryon Mode Naruto(1) vs Momoshiki(4)

2. Jigen(3) and Ryu(3) vs Kawaki(1) and Kashin Koji(1) and Hidari(1) vs Sasuke(4) and Matsuri(4)

3. Eida(3) vs Mamushi(2) vs Daemon(4)




1. Now, Naruto's beating the brakes off Isshiki right off the bat, and that mf can't do anything about it. Momoshiki and Madara trying to interject leads to them getting smacked aside by the tails, and the two fall back, briefly clash with each other, then move out. Boruto simultaneously beats the shit out of Code. Isshiki dies, but Naruto loses Baryon Mode. Madara attacks the injured Naruto, and Momoshiki does the same against Boruto. Boruto defeats Momoshiki now immensely injured, but Madara beats the collapsing Naruto, also injured to a somewhat similar degree. Boruto and Madara fight, and quite frankly, due to the severe injury, Madara just barely pulls off the victory.

2. Jigen rushes Kawaki, and Kashin Koji backs him up. Matsuri fights Ryu, and Sasuke battles Hidari. Now, with Sage Mode, Koji is able to kill Jigen, and with Kawaki, he's slamming that guy so hard that it takes the two aback a bit when Isshiki pops up and just murders them. Sasuke and Hidari are dead-even, and Matsuri and Ryu are the same. However, seeing Isshiki, everyone teams up on him. I'd say they can all probably make it, leaving them all heavily injured, and Matsuri and Sasuke's teamwork would allow them to beat the other two, now immensely damaged.

3. Daemon and Eida beat the **** out of Mamushi, then Daemon is forced to kill his sister, now very injured from the two fights.

4. Everyone jumps Madara and he dies.

Was this accurate? No. Was it fun? No. But that's life.
 
Not the fight comparison, i fear
They know mas is useless

An arm on the other hand is very crucial for mobility
In a general sense? Yeah
But not really in Narutoverse
It's never been shown how losing a limb would affect their combat effectiveness
They usually just adapt to said loss and improve from there
Case in point, A4 and Minato (who even lost both arms at some point)
Zabuza had both arms broken and immediately started using his mouth to wield a kunai. Give him a few months and the drop-off from losing his arms would be negligible
Would it be preferable to have all your limbs intact? Yeah
But it's not necessarily important for them to have it intact
Especially when Sasuke had an emotional reason to not want it intact
 
why is shibai ap not L2C? IF it was just a matter of the world existing before shibai, shibai should be able to scale from other gods. because of Momoshiki's statement

(a programming language that gods. were said to have used to created worlds)

From the words above it should be clear that there is more than one god there. and shibai can be scaled to other gods who created the world.🤔🤔🤔🤔
 
Love the confidence. Way to go, Lex 💪
