For those who can't read it, it's basically the wiki entry for Might Guy, his moniker is "Konoha's sublime Green/Blue Beast of Prey". Either scenario makes sense when you consider his eight gates opening is colored blue or green based on the artist's mood. Arguing it needs to be green because of his outfit kind of skips the whole point that he earned his moniker from the technique not his image. Also the japanese version of his title is 'aoi', in japan it's typically blue but the series takes it more as 'azure'(who's spectrum goes from blue to teal/greenish-blue), so it's not helping with narrowing it down between blue/green when some shots have it blue and others green or even straight up both ends of the spectrum at the same time.

8 trigram palm strike?

Somatosensory is just the fancy way of saying touch. Pressure, pain, heat anywhere on the body with a sense of 'touch'.

There's also the fact there are no confirmed hyugas and uchiha in Root. Danzo only wants the most loyal or easily maleable to join his forces, the hyuga and uchiha are loyal to a fault but can't be manipulated to defect from their clans. Itachi/shisui are notable exceptions yet they only defected towards the village not towards danzo.

It's weird that he rushed off to the library when he found out the suspicious quirrel and the muttering snape, but we still haven't found out what exactly was so urgent to research. This line alone confirms he wasn't looking up curses/jinxes and counter spells. Just makes you think it was a waste, and intentional author's hand to confuse the reader. If it wasn't about looking for 'proof' and countermeasures than there really was no need to rush off like that. You might think it would've been too late, but mc's of the mind that snape had it handled already, so getting some more magic up your sleeves would be great to back him up next time when 'whoever' steps up their game.

I think they meant a brush...or shocker a wand, but since they've yet to be officially receive a wand the brush makes more sense.

I guess the mind growth room was exponential then. So the first month was worth ~4 years of mental growth, but the second one had a lot more than just 4. So minimum 8yr with unknown max. I skipped the 2 yr time skip in the equation since it's plain weird to include the part that he'd most likely be raised like a normal child. Always found it weird when isekai mc's include the years they spent crawling around in a crib doing nothing but eat and sleep towards their mental age when there was literally zero stimuli to add to their life experiences.

Man my dyslexia really just read "A figure of speech throughout the woods...", was a bit excited at the weird structure and what could only be a new metaphor to add to my mental library.

Timezones really messes with this doesn't it haha?! Should be 4:01pm since france is an hour ahead of britain. Though if you want to avoid having to explain timezone differences just say the potters have an extra secret hideout closer to france. If you don't want to mess with canon locations than just use the timezone of britain (GMT +1) whenever dealing with such. France is GMT +2.

His dad controls gold sand...the auto thing was gaara's mom mixed with gaara's instinctual need for affection as well as the constant threats for his life, but the sheer volume of sand in certain attacks was shukaku. At least early on that was the case, eventually the sand stopped it's automatic thing when he matured in shippuden despite having shukaku, since it's never shown that the sand defends him without him willing it to. I think the last time we see it was just before he 'dies' and is resurrected, which was essentially the impetus for him starting his path on being the beloved guardian of the people type kazekage. It might still be a thing, but without us seeing him fending off assassins anymore it's hard to tell if it just wasn't strong enough on it's own during the fourth ninja war, or if it faded away to the point that he is now longer on constant vigilance even against his own village.

My headcannon for why is that the shadow clones aren't perfect. They transmit the memories but only...lets say 97% of it. As hokage, that remaining 3% could be a matter of life or death for entire swathes of konoha ninjas. Like say your clone reads a report than disperses but omits the color of a persons shirt, not that big of a deal normally, but if said person abhors the color purple but is suddenly wearing such it's a subtle hint that something is up. Could be impersonation, or a warning flag to the village that they're being used against their will. You've just sent a chunin team to escort them since they were requested into enemy territory. Now the hokage just essentially sent under qualified ninjas on a mission that should've clearly been a trap for them, without any secret guards or disguised jonins, simply because your clone didn't have the time to scrutinize the detail when reading it, and you didn't think much about it since it's just a minor detail you wouldn't seek out confirmation for.

Tv exists, it's just rare to find inside the ninja villages. I mean fridges and what not are common place, so are some more mundane things, but entertainment isn't prevalent since technically they are always training for war. So boardgames are also out unless they have training benefits like shogi for tacticians. The only 'toys' found are for those too young to join the academy since it's a complete nuisance to always deal with whiney children.

Most of the sci-fi wonder of OP is genetic engineering. Cyborg and whatnot can be found in Marvel, but the gene stuff in Marvel tends to come with harsh side effects whereas OP doesn't. Most of the 'down side' is the treatment prior to and after the experiments so the direct side effects if any are hardly ever negative since the 'price' is typically more of just emotional/mental damage from abuse and what not.

Definitely loving it, it's one surefire way to remove any bits that got stale like a multiverse shop which skipped THE GRIND! It was barely used anyways since the beginning, mostly just the cherry on top of training through books. The only bits not exactly replicatable is the materials with obscure sources. I mean now he has go hunt down universes with a bahamut and instakill it to get the mats for performing magic rituals on new harem girls. But then again, you could put a decent spin on it. Easiest way being he farms resources by going to mmo universes, where there are endlessly respawning enemies to harvest from. So all in all, not much has changed, just reinstated THE GRIND, and maybe incentivized new adventures. Hurts a bit to not force it to be at least hp adjacent like the original premise, but eh, I guess we'll see how the story develops before being too premature about nitpicky criticisms.

I heard from joey on the trashtaste podcast that the japanese convenience stores sell godly socks. I forget the name/brand, just know it's super cheap yet they swear by the fact it's the best socks they've used...and he owns a clothes line of his own so...yeah.

I guess that answers my question of what happens to the people he stole powers from. Was curious if it's the permanent steal or the perfect copy 'steal'.

It's really not helping with my initial impression of "Steele" being eerily reminiscent of the game where you play the heir/inheritor of "Steele Industrial Technology"...

I'd assume she's sitting where the stick shift is...we'll just say it's between her thighs and not somewhere else...

I just hope he stood up on the table and did the whole dance. NO ONE survives that kind of psychic damage.

Uh...if this was the 'amass a fortune only to never use it' bit, than I'm almost afraid of what you think 'putting it to good use' would be. I felt like the mc used all their resources, even if not min/maxed like a master occlumence would be able to(but then again any super IQ or ai-chip assisted mcs fall into the same category, but this series never claimed to be all about squeezing out ever last drop of uses). I've been having a blast with a story written by an author with as crazy of a writing style as my endless text docs of half born concept ideas. Only a rare few authors I've found have a similar energy in their writing, and if all this up to now was the proverbial kiddie gloves, I'm getting pumped for what's next. I've got a few ideas on my desktop right now that'd be up your alley if you're curious about them. The bulk of them has to do with 'isekai' in some way though; whether that be transimgration, portal, reincarnation, etc. I've only got a handful that don't but even then they revolve around more mystic than sci-fi so...basically all of it's fantasy at the least. My most chaotic 'greatest hits' being: "Mistakenly Hid from Gods(Za Hando!)" where the mc manages to annoy the afterlife administration, "Farming Good Karma" a multiverse spanning pyramid scheme based on the butterfly effect and using infinite karma to make one reality warping wish, or "A Time Traveling God's Mistake" wherein a 'green hatted' ROB regretted their choice and tried to undo it via time shenanigans only to splinter the timeline causing an infinite recursion where the MC of that time becomes 'ROB' for alternate thems(thus infinite annoying mc's who have long since drowned the original ROB, and just continue the chain to keep the paradox from collapsing creating utter chaos throughout the multiverse in endless timelines and alternate universes).
