Lauren Chen@TheLaurenChen·
Today was the Cherry Blossom Festival here in Nashville, which is an annual event that celebrates Japanese culture 🇯🇵🌸 After spending 3 months in Tokyo last year, I was curious to see what a Japanese-inspired event would look like in America. The first thing that I noticed, however, was that other attendees were disproportionately overweight white women. And among the people dressed up for the event, they were almost exclusively obese white women with colorful hair. This struck me as strange, because this is not what the average person in Nashville looks like. Despite being in the south, Nashville is a relatively lean city. I definitely think that the Cherry Blossom Festival itself was attracting a specific type of crowd. And I find that so curious, because these overweight, unkempt women were clearly fans of Japanese culture and esthetics, but they simultaneously couldn't have been further from embodying Japanese beauty. Japanese women tend to be lean, feminine, well-groomed, reserved, and modest. The women at the Festival were basically the complete opposite of that. It seemed like they thought they could just put on a costume and emulate Japanese culture, but what they failed to realize is that Japanese culture is considered so beautiful and desirable because it's disciplined. It's precise. It's intentional. From the looks of it, these are not values that any of these women hold dear. The image of a tattooed, 300 pound woman, with unbrushed hair, spilling out of an anime cosplay outfit is... jarring, to say the least, because it goes against so much of what makes Japanese culture Japanese. It seemed like they believed Japanese culture was beautiful, but didn't understand that that beauty took work and a certain character to achieve. Work they weren't willing to do, and a character they weren't interested in aspiring to. And the fact that this type of woman is so interested in Japan is also strange to me, considering that Japan possesses a lot of the same qualities that these women likely complain about when it comes to America. Japan is an ethnonationalist country with strict immigration. They are tough on crime. They are socially conservative. They value social cohesion and personal responsibility. These qualities are all strengths when it comes to Japan, but these women, once more, all but certainly oppose such practices in America, failing to understand that Japanese success isn't an accident. It's specifically thanks to these policies. In any case, I don't share these thoughts to body shame anyone, but rather to note how, despite their apparent interest in Japanese culture, western liberals are essentially its polar opposite. Esthetically, politically, and socially.

@Alchemist8565 Because they don't feel nearly as impressive. And Naruto's form looks closer to KCM2 despite being stated to be six paths mode. Naruto and Sasuke feel weaker even if in reality they are stronger.

@ThickCalvesSage You are forgetting about Narutos chakra as well. He has only half of Kuramas chakra as a teen. But as an adult he should have more of his own, we just don't know how much. Teen Naruto is much cooler anyway.

Novarx (the seer arc) 👁️
In the 10 shadows technique, when a shikigami is destroyed, its powers are passed on to the next direct shikigami above it. Mahoraga is the strongest shikigami so if it's destroyed, who will it's powers be passed to?

@M_Ulil_Azmi @warrie2021 Was this because Maho died or could it be because all the shadows had died by that point? I don't remember if Sukuna had any shadows left.

@emmywayne64 what do hand signs actually do in JJK? Is it a focusing energy thing like in Naruto where it is just a tool to better channel their strength?

Is there an explanation why everyone else needs two hands to open a domain except for Gojo?

@JoyBoyTheories If OP becomes a simulation story I am quitting one piece and will slander it to the ends of the earth. I hate dream/simulation stories so much. Sometimes it actually is magic and not some high tech illusion.

Also I forgot to say this but the most insane way to take this theory is that everybody is now AI, like at some point in the past everyone upgraded or were forced to. So this is what Conquerors Haki actually is. The genetic authority chip. Also why it has the Bzzt or Zzt sound effect and generates lightning. An electrical wave 😂🤷‍♂️#onepiece

@d20play I can't say much because a player (my gf) follows me but this should be vague enough not to reveal everything and yet be interesting.
