I’m glad to see people protesting Discord forcing IDs for age verification, but what I need everyone to understand is that there’s immense bipartisan pressure to make the entire internet like this, and they are likely going to succeed unless something drastic happens

If you're asking why I did a screenshot over four posts instead of four screenshots in one post, the answer is it's 5am and I only realized what I'd been doing after adding the alt text to 3 of the four.

Finally got around to doing my Modulo chapter review for my newsletter--thought I'd share here.

I wonder if it's possible if the end-game Kawaki isn't OG Kawaki, but him in another body, evolved. (Perhaps he original body couldn't handle Amado's power boosting?) Or maybe his tattoo was modified to represent his enhancements, a Kawaki 2.0

I'd like to posit an outlandish theory here that we've seen the symbols change on Delta as well once she was modified by Amado to serve Konoha rather than Kara, her I replaced by a triangular swirl.

It's likely that this is an artifact of evolving character design, Ikemoto later settling on 9 instead, but it's also curious that he didn't just run with 9. There are other Kara inners (Ouga, Deepa) not mentioned in the manga series, so a few missing numerals wouldn't go amiss.

It's very curious that in the opening pages of the Boruto manga, Kawaki actually has the roman numeral for 10 written beneath his eye rather than 9. Due to his karma and fist-position, it's not visible in the other opening scenes.

in her own way, Sarada is her father's daughter too. Real bad at pep talks.

She has lots of background on the theory as well as Kawaki's connection to it as well. It's been a theory in the fandom as long as I've been here and is tied back into Kishimoto's long-time use of non-western religious motifs.

There's multiple pronunciations for the name, one of which is Sarada.
I'll need to tap @bleedforlives.bsky.social in for specifics whenever she pokes her head in this app.

Koji also has prescience, no omniprescience. He's fallible.

With Sarada inspiration by the goddesses Saraswati, a goddesses of knowledge and wisdom, I think she's more closely aligned with Omniscience.

There are three "omni" attributes of God. Omnipotence, Omniscience and Omnipresence.
Who is going to develop Omnipresence? Sarada?
And when we discover who it is, are Koji, Eida and that person going to somehow merge into one in order to defend the Earth?
