No, its called piss poor writing and not knowing the lore of the series. Don't worry this is expected of Ikemoto/Kodachi. So far they've:
- retconned Momoshiki's death because uber villain has to give MC uber power up as a genin
- drawn out a doujutsu out of their ass because MC must have one to be "cool"
- given genin and academy students elemental jutsu with no prior development.
- seem to have taken shinobi having nature affinities meaning they can do said elemental jutsus.
- retconned Ao's death with no valid reasoning
- retconned Moegi by giving a side characters sidekick the most sought after KKG with no precedent. They literally just read her name (sprout) and thought wouldn't it be nice if she had wood style lmao
This isn't even including the dumb shit SP have been doing, like Bee no longer having Samehada because they can't come up with any original ideas.
I appreciate the write up but I'm sorry to say that I don't agree that it's "piss poor" writing just because it's not flawless. I agree with some of your points but not what you're saying overall.
Also just my 2 cents but Ao survived for a reason clearly, to be used as a villain. It's not really any different from Obito or Anakin surviving their fatal injuries to be put back together as villains.
Whether you like that or not is your prerogative I'm not judgemental but it does seem to have a purpose and it certainly didn't stick out to me as egregiously unbelievable.
The only kids we've really seen do elemental jutsu are the prodigy children of the previous cast and are implied to have learned from them, and Iwabe
I'll agree it's dumb Moegi apparently has this (assuming it's true) and it's unlikely it'll have a good explanation but it's a kids cartoon that I like, I don't expect it to be perfect.
That's not to say other aren't allowed to hold it to certain standards it's up to you, but personally besides maybe how this Moegi stuff goes it'd be the first thing that's happened that I think stands out as legitimately bad
Also do you mind telling me where this information on Moegi comes from if it's not too much trouble?
Either way thanks for the thought out response
It just says she developed the ability as an adult, which could have been possible I guess.
I don't believe we've seen that surname before.
Okay neat thanks, where did this information come from?
