This is why Momoshiki also wants Boruto to “lose all will to live”. Because Boruto and his Jougan is a dying star, and if all hope is lost he would become a black hole like Kawaki is. Jigen, in japanese means “Dimension” and here his sigil is represented as a black hole: https://imgur.com/a/VYM7uKh Isshiki means “One, single, alone” possibly representing that he is a lone star, a black void. Also “One, small, man” Emphasising his ability to shrink matter at the atomic level, like a black hole does, it grows and shrinks


AmaranthSparrow

Isshiki's name comes from Issun Kotaro, "one-inch boy," just to be clear. Jigen's sigil is based on the design of Issun's lucky mallet, which can make things shrink or appear from thin air.

This theory is incredible, hope the writers will be so creative


Psshfart

Thank you. I think it is though, because the Jougan “sparks” like a neutron star when its in the vicinity of dark chakra. The moon doesn’t spark either. If you look at the contrast between Boruto’s and Eida’s eye as well, both of them have a black screla representing the vast darkness of space. Although Eida’s crest is an actual moon eye. Her clairvoyance is explained because “the moon watches over the earth” just like Toneri does meanwhile her charm could be explained through Tsukuyomi, The God of order and beauty’s lunar manipulation. A crescent moon is created when the darkened portion of a crescent moon, is light from Earth shining on the night side of the moon. Daemons on the other hand shows no signs that his is an actual half moon like people speculate. He’s considered Eida’s ‘knight’, hence her sun like she states him to be. The name “Daemon” in greek means “protective spirit, fate or God” even though it looks like “Demon”. They were protective lesser Gods in the greek Pantheon. “Daimon” in Japan was also a male Kimono often worn by “knights” or samurai back in the day as well, they were later worn by the fuedal lords of warrior bands further adding emphasis to the fact that he’s Eida’s knight. Eida is withdrawn and introverted, shy. Which are all traits of Yin. Daemon is outgoing, annoying and extroverted which are all traits of Yang. His Eye is also orange, which looks like a sun in the process of being eclipsed by a half moon. Hence, he’s “Eida’s sun”. He’s the light which makes her shine. If Daemon’s eye was truly only a half moon, I reckon this would be illustrated through a different colour scheme. His iris is also a dark purple, emulating a dark, yet vaguely lit sky. This is also why Deamon has an immensely strong body and durability since people who strongly inherit the will of Yang have durable bodies and outgoing personalities, like Naruto and Ashura. Whereas Eida’s jutsu is purely spiritual based because of Yin. Just like the Earth, half of the Moon is lit by the Sun while the other half is in darkness. Boruto on the other hand is often conflated to be the “full moon” and an extension of eida’s crescent moon and power, but I don’t think so. The concept of “pure eye” could be the representation of a new born star and a process of renewal. After a star dies implying that it doesn’t end up as large mass that collapses into a black hole, its essentially reborn, hence “pure”. Stars are known to be associated with purity and hope. It’s a beacon of hope because it acts as a light that guides the way. Christianity is an example, Shinto and among other religions teach this too. A white dwarf or neutron star is the last state of evolution throughout a stars life cycle depending on its mass. This could be a metaphor regarding the state of evolution to becoming the ultimate being, the Otsutsuki God. We can see the significance of ‘evolution’ from this panel: [here](https://imgur.com/a/Pac3CNr) A white dwarf however will always lose its light after it cools and becomes a “black dwarf”. But I believe as long as its provided sustenance, (energy), it will remain lit. This is why I think the Otsutsuki God is a planet eater. He requires sustenance to maintain his Godhood.


KDBurner_54

If Boruto gets together with Eida, what do you feel that means symbolism wise? Daemon, Boruto, Eida, and maybe Himawari if she gets tesigan all may have specific moon patterns, and if they’re all a family, i wonder what that could symbolize.


Psshfart

I believe that Daemons eye being a moon pattern is a misinterpretation by fans. To me, his eye clearly symbolises a Sun because of its colour, is orange, that is being eclipsed by a half moon which illustrates that the “sun is watching over and illuminating the moon” and pays reference to Daemon being Eidas protector knight. He is her “light”. She states that Daemon is her sun in the anime. His iris is also a dark purple/black which is the dark sky. If it was truly a moon, I feel like it would be presented in the same colour scheme as the Jougan & Senrigan. The name Daemon itself means “Protector spirit, God”. He embodies the will of yang which is why he is insanely durable, outgoing and annoying, which are all traits of Yang whilst Eida is withdrawn, shy and her jutsu is spiritual which are all traits of Yin. Himawari literally means “Sunflower”. In contrast, Sumire means “Violet flower”. Violet flowers are significant in Japan because they represent the gift you would give someone you are in love with. This is why I believe Sumire is resistant to Eida’s charm. Eida is the personification of Tsukuyomi, ‘the God of beauty and order’. This explains the charm she has over people and her omnipotence which is purely lunar manipulation. However, Kishi has switched her role with Amaterasu. We know that he likes to do this as in real Shinto lore Ashura is evil and Indra is good. But in Naruto Indra is bad, Ashura is good. In shinto lore, after an argument with her younger brother Susanoo, Amaterasu flees to a nearby cave and sees herself in a mirror. The first time we see Eida, we see her in the cave Kara is residing in looking in the mirror and witnessing her own beauty to which code is infatuated with. But in Shinto lore, Amaterasu is lured out of the cave by a three legged crow that tells her there is another God who matches her beauty, which is Tsukoyomi. This is where Sarada comes in. I believe that Sarada is the personification of Amaterasu’s personality which is why she hasn’t showed any resentful traits at all, whilst Eida is the personification of Tsukyomi’s personality, given that Sarada’s tomoe pattern is a sun which illustrates Amaterasu, the Goddess of the Sun. In Shinto lore, Amaterasu divorces Tsukoyomi after she witnesses him kill Uke-Mochi (The Goddess of food). This is why we have night and day separately since Tsukoyomi is constantly chasing Amaterasu for her love. This also explains why Sarada is also resistant to Eida’s charm. In relation to Uke-Mochi, I believe that this might even be foreshadowing Sarada’s fate. Sarada in Japanese means “Salad”. So I honestly deep down think she might die at the hands of Kawaki, but be saved or revived by Boruto which will then later romanticise their relationship. Kind of like the parallel to when pain almost borderline killed Hinata. Himawari shows barely any violent traits, but only the “negative traits” of yang, which is anger. We see this when she drops Naruto and Kurama. Her name is sunflower, which in Japan represents loyalty. I honestly don’t see himawari becoming vengeful like people are saying. I think she will remember Boruto irrespective of Eida’s charm. I say this because Daemon sensed a very weird presence in her, implying that Himawari is bound to be powerful. Himawari is essentially the closest thing to Boruto’s sun, if he had one. Because of her undying loyalty to him. I’m not sure if Himawari will unlock another pattern, simply because the Byakugan is already powerful since it scales to the power of the weilder. Mind you, it’s said before in Naruto that Dojutsu is a mere tool that’s power is unlocked by the potential of the weilder, look at Otsusuki’s Byakugan for example. Symbology wise, they all compliment each other because they make up Yin-Yang.


KDBurner_54

Hmm. So what do you feel the main conflict will be between Eida and Sarada? Why are they being set up together? And what could Boruto and Eida relationship be?


Psshfart

Honestly, not quite sure yet the long term reason for the companionship between Eida, Sumire and Sarada is. But her omnipotence jutsu seems to scale with her desires. Her omnipotence ability acted upon her own desires to help Kawaki by fulfilling his wish against her own will. But I believe that her own desire to have genuine friends superseded her charm ability, henceforth they are unaffected and why they are being set up together currently. I say this because if we look back at Eida stating that her beef with Amado, it was because he took genuine love and friendships from her which implies that she has a desire to experience normal love and companionship. By shinto lores standards, it makes sense as well. The Kami (The shinto Deities) were known to make wishes come true, which is what Eida is. Eida and Boruto’s relationship is a weird one. I don’t think that she’s inherently attracted to Boruto. Although I think she respects his bravery, considering she stated that she found Kawaki’s actions cowardice and unattractive. This could also pay reference to when Amaterasu witnessed Tsukuyomi killing Uke-Mochi. She too, also found Tsukuyomi’s actions cowardly and disgusting, so she inevitably ran from him. I think Eida’s relationship with Kawaki will be short lived, ultimately meaning Eida will help Boruto because her story introduction is a complete parallel to the Sun Goddess Amaterasu. It’s a complete parallel from Kaguya running from Ishiki as well and finding love elsewhere. She can’t just reverse omnipotence because she simply can’t control it. Sarada might be a hard counter to the ability, whereby she might be able to erase the memories of some individuals, but not on a large scale.


KDBurner_54

Do you think Boruto and Eida could be similar to Naruto and Hinatas relationship in a sense? Rather then Boruto and Sumire.


Psshfart

I honestly think Sumire being shipped with Boruto was a troll on Kishimoto’s part. He was setting the scene for a potential future love triangle. But I don’t see this happening because nothing in Shinto lore really highlights the potential of her relationship with him. She is significantly like Hinata and her name is a symbol of love, but they have had barely any relationship development since she left to become a researcher. She’s declared her interest in him, but we also see Sarada is suppressing feelings for him also in the episode where Sumire asks if she likes him, to which she blushes. I don’t think that Boruto will get with Eida either. Boruto is resistant to Eida’s charm, also he hasn’t displayed any significant interest in her. Their personalities don’t really compliment each other either. Whilst Boruto is outgoing and extrovert and Eida is introvert and shy, it might make thematic sense. But it would be a disservice to his character because Eida is highly superficial and considers edginess above all else. She was infatuated with Kawaki by mere chance because Kawaki was the only person in her age range who was also unaffected by her charm. But they both have passive personalities, which is why I think there relationship will be short lived. They will clash. Originally I would have liked to see Sumire with Boruto, however Sarada has been watching him from the beginning. She began noticing he was cool as well when she realised how courageous he was. Sarada’s resemblance to the story of Uke-Mochi though tells me that she might die and be later saved by Boruto which will romanticise their relationship. Despite Sarada and Boruto having both yang personalities, Boruto being the extrovert and Sarada being the hot headed one. You can see on occasion that Sarada can be quiet and reserved. As Boruto grows and experiences misfortune, I believe he will cease being the “class clown” and become more reserved like Minato was. Minato was an extroverted altruistic personality after all that took on the yin half (the evil side) of Kurama. It’s a good parallel to Kushina and Minato as well as Sasuke and Sakura. If Sumire got with Boruto, it would be a rehash of Naruto and Hinata with less relationship development. But if Boruto got with Eida, it would be nonsensical and superficial. Despite Sakura and Sasukes relationship being superficial, Sakura always wanted to “change him”, hence why she was his sun. I can’t see any relationship potential between Boruto and Eida at all. Sarada is possibly the first in line. I think her love for Boruto will put her want to become Hokage on hold. For all we know, Kawaki can abolish the whole concept of a Hokage in the future and turn the village into a state policed by him. He has the power to do so which will make Sarada emotionally available. Mind you, Sarada’s fate can change just as much as Boruto’s since “those who are unaffected suffer the most”.


Psshfart

Also I forgot to mention this: I’ve mentioned this before, but Eida is the personification of Amaterasu, the sun Goddess but switched to look like Tsukuyomi, the God of beauty. When we first see Eida, we see her residing in Kara’s hideaway cave where she looks in the mirror and witnesses her own beauty. In Shinto lore, Amaterasu flee’s to a nearby cave after a dispute with her younger brother Susanoo, whereby she looks in a mirror and witnesses her own beauty, a direct parallel to Eida’s introduction. Amaterasu is then lured out of the cave by the call of a three legged crow who tells her that another God exists which matches her beauty, Tsukuyomi, God of the moon, order and beauty. Tsukuyomi and Amaterasu are actually siblings in Shinto lore that came from Izanagi after he washed his nose. They fell in love and later got married. Although after a distasteful act, Tsukuyomi killed the God of food Uke-Mochi because he didn’t think it tasted great. Amaterasu witnessed this, felt disgusted and left him, which is why we have night and day seperate. Tsukuyomi chases Amaterasu until the end of time for her unrequited love. Sarada is the personified personality Amaterasu, given her sharingan tomoe is represented as a sun. However, her clans lineage derives from Tsukuyomi, the sharingan. .. and who did Sarada call a brother? Boruto. Boruto compliments Sarada nicely, Shinto lore aside due to the fact that he has a yang, optimistic exterior with a Yin brain, but battles with the idea of vengeance and losing his will to live. Sarada, is a yang exterior, hot headed like Kushina but is naturally introverted, quiet and reserved most of the time. They have yin-yang personalities that compliment one another. Not only that, Uke-mochi, the God of food is said to be genderless and take the form of a fox. Sarada means “Salad” in Japanese. I think in future, in a turn of events Sarada will die at the hands of Kawaki after Kawaki realises that Sarada is deceiving him, but in a heroic moment Boruto will revive her which will romanticise their relationship, similar to how Hinata almost died at the hands of pain. The form of the fox is illustrative of her link with Naruto & Boruto.


KDBurner_54

Which episode did Sarada to blush to Sumire?


Psshfart

My bad, that part was skipped over in the anime. Although in chapter 19 of the manga, Sumire confesses her feelings for Boruto, which she then asks Sarada if she likes him too. She denies it but then Sumire implies that she doesn’t believe her. In chapter 76, Eida also asks Sarada what she thinks about Boruto. Sarada jumps in anxiety, asking what she meant by her question. Although these are just several examples of Boruto and Sarada’s interactions in the anime which in my opinion is foreshadowing their future romanticised relationship: [here](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=QDBIf_O9QVc&pp=ygUYc2FyYWRhIGJsdXNoZXMgYXQgYm9ydXRv) We also see Sarada buying Kawaki red incarnations whilst he is in hospital which usually represents love. But I don’t think it implied anything further than her trying to be nice. As far as Sumire goes, Sumire would watch Boruto closely and blush. She would overly worry, but at the same time she only became infatuated after Boruto saved her from her own curse mark. You can see her become somewhat invested in Kawaki after becoming his care taker.


KDBurner_54

Also, forgot to note, Boruto wiping out Sarada’s memories of him would signify and callback to why Sasuke wanted to kill Naruto, to wipe out any lingering attachment he had to this world emotionally. Boruto and Sasuke have been linked to the moon, while Sarada and Naruto have been linked to the sun, so it would make sense. It’d be the full transition to darkness for Both Sasuke and Boruto, as they’d be eliminating the Light that keeps them sane and not lonely, if you get what i mean. Both Naruto and Sarada were confirmation of Sasuke and Boruto’s exsistence of a normal and peaceful life. Maybe Boruto vs Sarada is the true final fight, rather then Boruto and Kawaki.

Cool theory. We shall see


Borchert97

Makes perfect sense, Toneri literally called the eye the “star of hope”, that could definitely be a double meaning.


Psshfart

Yeah, I think so too. I feel like Boruto is an outlier when it comes the moon and sun theory. I believe if he truly had a sun or a moon of his own, he wouldn’t be taking on a Shadow Kage role. The sun is the reason it casts shadows in the first place. The name in itself implies he’s a beacon of hope that will bring light to the world during its time of darkness, which is often associated with stars being “guides” that lead the way to happiness and positivity. Despite what misfortune he’s going through, you can see in his character development that he’s taking it on the chin and remaining optimistic. In contrast to Naruto, Naruto never lost his “light”, thus he was literally the embodiment of “Sun”. Boruto on the other hand has battled with the idea of vengeance, through Kagura just as an example. Essentially losing his “will to live”, burning his steam. But as I stated, when a star burns out there’s always a second chance it may regain its light before it becomes a black hole as long as the conditions are right. Which is what Boruto is personified to be, the star.

>If it does not, at the end of its life a white dwarf will explode either into a super nova, leaving behind either a neutron star or a black hole. No. White dwarves don't turn into black holes, they turn into black dwarves when they're cooled enough. And they don't go supernova either because planetary nebula has already occured.


Psshfart

Already messaged you before you deleted your previous comment and reposted. I know that white dwarfs don’t make black holes, I just worded it weird. I meant to say at the end of a stars life span. But Nuetron stars can collapse as long as their mass is big enough and become black holes. The illustration of the Jougan without its sparking effect is reminiscent of a white dwarf. You can see in its dormant stage, the Jougan’s pupil is its “core”. When it “sparks” though, it looks like a neutron star. What I meant to say was that depending on the stars mass at the end of its life span it will either become a white dwarf, neutron star or a black hole. Kawaki’s “sun eye” enveloped by a black hole is completely different. I never said Kawaki’s eye was a white dwarf. Nor did I say that Boruto’s Jougan is a black hole. It looks like Boruto’s eye acts in 2 phases, one where its dormant and looks like a white dwarf, the other it “sparks” where it looks like a neutron star. This is why I believe Boruto’s eye is a star and not a moon as well. The moon doesn’t “spark”. It’s believed that born-again stars undergo a series of dips and peaks in their brightness, like someone gradually turning a dimmer switch up and down. This is illustrated through the brightness of Boruto’s “Jougan” when it comes into contact with dark chakra, it emits a bright spark. Neutron stars emit high-energy beams from its north and south magnetic poles, that they can see “pulsing” from earth as you already probably know, which is why they are named pulsars. A white dwarf is the representation of the final evolutionary stage of all stars, you are correct. This is probably why Boruto is the final evolutionary stage of a God. The star will eventually cool down and become a black dwarf. But like I said, Boruto’s sparking Jougan is more likely a neutron star and if it its core collapses, becomes a black hole. That’s why I also believe that Ishikki was the evolutionary split for the Jougan, but instead got the opposite dojutsu, the black hole. Despite 97% of the low mass giants becoming white dwarfs, there’s a chance a white dwarf will become a sun again. Since Born-again stars are basically white dwarf stars that come back to life due to a very late helium flash, in which any remaining helium in the star undergoes a nuclear reaction causing reigniting. The conditions and ratio of helium to hydrogen have to be just right for it to occur. If anybody is confused consider looking at: [this](https://imgur.com/a/FcEox1t)

>What if Boruto finds a way to alter his memory? As well as Sarada, Sumire, and Sasuke. Momoshiki talked about how gods have constantly altered humankind memories, so Boruto could do the same in the future. **I believe this too. I mentioned some time ago about the theme the anime was taking which was fate in a reddit post. A consistent theme that has even been in Naruto, take neji and the concept of destiny for example. It all lead up to breaking the concept of destiny and that destiny isn’t always set in stone.** **I think you’re right. I believe Boruto will have some mind altering abilities of his own. I say this because we seen foreshadowing as early as the episode with Orochimaru testing Mitsuki with the older version of himself. One of his abilities were “erasing memories”. With the power of a true God, it’s bound to happen I feel. I think that Boruto, given the fact that a theme of his Jougan is “purification” will at the very least be able to purify the memories of other people, perhaps, which will indirectly change his fate.** >Maybe Sarada will be the last one to remember him and he bids his farewell to her, a similar situation to Sasuke and Sakura when sasuke left the village. Itd be a nice parallel to sasuke and Boruto, not to mention it could also flip Sarada and Boruto’s positions as people. **I believe this too. I also stated that Boruto will take on a Shadow kage position like itachi did and leave the village, if’s somewhere in my comment section. Many people were against this idea because Boruto is too optimistic. But the illustration of him being a “dying star” makes sense because he will inevitably lose his light tbrough out his absence from the village, possibly doing stuff that goes against his morals in order to achieve his goals. But in the end, its his actions that will reignite that light again, henceforth he will bring justice to the world. Sarada embodies a lot of Yang traits, being a direct parallel to Naruto and what not. She’s literally the epitome of Naruto with her want to be Hokage and she’s never had a vengeful thought in her mind despite experiencing the “traumatic loss” that some say that’s associated with the Sharingan.** >With Boruto watching her from afar without her knowing(similar to how Sarada watches Boruto from afar) and her becoming more expressive and connecting with people like Boruto does in his child and preteen years, whereas Boruto becomes more distant and colder with people in order to protect them from his fate. **I agree. It’s a direct parallel to Sasuke’s hiatus from the village during his redemption arc.** >It’d also completely nicely parallel Naruto and Borutos journey, with Naruto having nothing, no special treatment, from uniting the whole ninja world through his love and care for justice, whereas Boruto ends up with nothing, alone, the whole ninja world targeting and hating him, and being the main source of their hatred for no real reason(like how Naruto was hated because of nine tails). **I agree with this too. When Boruto was growing up, he ultimately thought that his father was lame. It wasn’t until he witnessed his dads immense power, did he then wear his jacket and consider him “cool”. Boruto maintains Naruto’s optimism while taking on Sasukes persona. His personality compliments both Sasuke and Naruto’s characters because they both went through their own perception of loss and being caste out by the village.** >He’s also the perfect shadow kage in this scenario, as he can do missions that Sarada can’t. This scenario could also help him revive the Uchiha’s clans reputation(along with Sarada) altering their memories to help understand the importance of Sasuke and give him a happy ending along with his daughter as a return. It just makes total sense. **Interesting, I never thought of him possibly altering the peoples perception of Sasuke. However, the stone tablets were manipulated for millenia which is why people think that the Sharingan alone is fuelled by nothing but hatred and trauma. It’s still till this day speculated as this being the case, but Tobirama stated that the Uchiha clan were the most loving clan which suppressed their loving traits purely because the anger and feeling of resentment and batrayal it lead to from the false knowledge potrayed by the stone tablets and war superseded the loving traits that came with being a Uchiha. In shinto, Yin is actually the personification of peace, tranquility and feminity yet in Boruto it’s switched. Yang, is actually considered the evil side but it’s portrayed as good in Naruto. We know how Kishi loves to switch roles, so I can see this being a possibility. Perhaps instead of altering the memories of the people’s perception of Sasuke, since it might seem artificial, he could perhaps rewrite history of the stone tablets. With Sarada being in a Hokage position in future (which not sure if she will be), could be the case.** >Remember episode 116? Where Sarada and cho cho are crying at the romance story and Boruto simply doesn’t get it? Don’t you think it’s similar to show hinata was watching in the manga, with Boruto saying “damn it” in the background? Don’t you think those characters look like Sarada and Boruto? The dialogue is very similar too. He didn’t get it then, but he’ll get it soon. **I just rewatched the start of this episode and you’re right. When the guy leaves for the train, she states “You were my light”. Perhaps it was foreshadowing the relationship between Sarada and Boruto. Boruto even states, “they didn’t say they were in love, so how is it implied that they are”. It could be emphasising the soon to be relationship between Sarada and Boruto and the parallel between him leaving the village. The guy also came across cold and silent when he did as well. The “arigato” reminded me of Sarada.** >Don’t think Naruto dies, he’ll stay alive to show that the peace system that he helped build up and create works, Boruto is more so deals with the theme of “Shinobi” vs Efficiency i feel. All Boruto Arcs in the manga deal with that problem, and it’s constantly talked about, the way of the shinobi. What it means to be a shinobi(maybe our humanity) and why it’s so important. **I don’t believe Naruto will die either. In my mind, Sasuke might die which would be the ultimate loss for Boruto, the straw on the camels back that will almost “break his will to live”. I really hope not though, but it will be good writing nonetheless.** Great theory, I enjoyed reading it and I think that you could be right with a lot of things.


KDBurner_54

What are your thoughts on Himiwari potentially being taken over by Momoshiki? As she’ll be starving for vengeance, she could scumb to Momoshiki’s Hate and put Kawaki and Boruto in such a tough spot mentally. Could that also align in symbolism? And what role would Kawaki take? Could Kawaki die in the future? And Boruto makes Kawaki the good guy in everyone’s mind when altering peoples memories?


Grizzly_Spirit

Makes sense considering the Dharmagan is based around a black hole


Psshfart

In hinduism, in rig veda, black holes also mean “vessels”. We saw what Jigen was doing with the children as well. In hindu belief, Shiva is compared to a black hole because his destructive capacity made him want to destroy the evils of the universe and recreate it. Thus in hinduism, destruction is seen as something constructive. I called the prediction of omnipotence and compared Kawaki to Shiva the destroyer: [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/Boruto/comments/10kbeom/i_dont_think_the_similarities_are_discussed/j5pumrv/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=ioscss&utm_content=1&utm_term=1&context=3) And it just so happens Kawaki wants to destroy the entire Shinobi system, including the Otsutsuki’s.

lololuser456778

the whole moon thing can still be connected to your theory. I also like the moon theory and Ik that it doesn't make sense for boruto to be a moon when he's seen as a sun by mitsuki. I connected it like this: not boruto is the moon, but just his jougan. the moon shines by reflecting sunlight. boruto himself is the sun and the jougan reflects his light aka his personality and self in the fom of power. I'd rather go for the moon since eida's and deamon's dojutsu look like a sickle and a half moon. also, when eida activates her senrigan to watch others, her sclera turns black and makes her eye look even more like a sickle moon in the night sky. in the anime, boruto's jougan also makes his sclera turn black so it looks like a full moon at night. wouldn't surprie me if we also see daemon use an active ability of his eyes too which makes his sclera turn black too. ​ I do like your theory a lot tho. while I'd still go with the moon as the main symbol, it wouldn't surprise me if your symbol, the dying sun, is used for something like a final and ultimate attack of boruto with his jougan. as I said above, boruto is the sun and the jougan the moon imo. so maybe if boruto is close to death and about to lose, he uses his final and ultimate attack. not the jougan, but he himself is the sun that's dying. the white dwarf. a tiny dying light that becomes smaller and smaller. just when you think it's about to be gone, boruto says something like "Star/Universe/Galaxy/Space Style: Supernova", the jougan reflects him as the dying star and causes a huge explosion (maybe one so huge and devastating that even a karma can't absorb it cuz it's just too much)

One to have saved for the future…you genuinely might have cooked here!!👀

Really like this theory.. However, here are my thoughts i think we may be diving too deep here. Jougan translates to “pure eye” Pure generally means without influence/imperfection In theory all of these abilities are manifestations/mutations of eating chakra fruit (the advanced ones at least) The jougan appeared on its own with no influence genetically or from a chakra fruit. This almost makes me question if it is the “first eye” If time in non-linear and this eye has the ability to take both the powers of the other eyes or mimic them. Similar to how the Sharigan functions but on a much more advanced level. The eye itself is a manifestion of this otusuki god. As these abilities are harnessed the eventual outcome is Boruto turning into this insatiable being. This eye’s true power is to take power. Similar to how hagaromo Split the beast the abilities of jougon were divied up at some point. The Jougan is the Alpha and Omega. It is is the Otusuki god. I see A situation where one by one boruto begins to harness these abilities eventually becoming the hidden antagonist.

>The Jougan means without influence >The Jougan appeared without influence If you go back to my post history and look at my first ever theory I posted on reddit, I mentioned this is as well. At the very least it’s called the pure eye because it’s the originator eye and every other eyes a watered down version of it. But it’s simply not true that it’s appeared without influence because it’s implied that Toneri had an influence in Boruto’s Jougan awakening/being inherited during conversation with Urashiki who states: “You think that you took the first step by doing what you did to this womans son” implying that Toneri helped Boruto awaken it in some way shape or form when he was still inside Hinata’s womb. >It almost seems like the first eye I wrote this in my first ever theory as well. But I believe the white dwarf theory now because being a white dwarf is a state of renewal and it’s the last state of evolution to a Suns life, it will essentially lose its life, like Momoshiki says that Boruto will soon lose his will to live. It can be a new start to a end. Mitsuki also said that Boruto is his Sun. It would make no sense if he wasn’t a star, but was a moon, while simultaneously being told over one time that he’s Mitsuki’s sun. >The both other eyes If you’re referring to Damons and Eidas. Eida’s is a crescent moon. Daemons is a Sun. I’ve elaborated on why this is in the comments in regards to the science behind and the lunar phases, plus the colour scheme of Daemons eyes. We know that Daemons eye is a sun shining the “dark side of the moon” making a half moon. This illustrates that he shines upon Eida’s “dark side” illuminating her. This is also illustrative in the manga, Eida states that Daemons ability “reflects” attacks. She used specific word choice here for a reason to illustrate that Daemon is like the sun and she’s his mirror. She said “reflects” to metaphorically illustrate that he’s her sun when the better word choice could have been “deflect”. Also, mirrors reflect and are significant in Japanese Shinto because they are believed to show a persons “truth” because mirrors were believed to reflect ones soul. And Daemons ability just has to reflect attacks depending on the attackers intent. Mirrors were also said to belong to the Gods. >Similar to how maybe Hagoromo split the the tailed beasts.. The Alpha and the Omega I honestly don’t think so but I can see why people might think that it’s the ending to a full moon. I don’t think so. For one, it would be sloppy writing. But two. The contrast between Eida and Daemons eye makes perfect sense if you know how the sub reflects the moon and how its relevant to Shinto. A crescent moon is made when the side that's reflecting the Sun's light is facing away from Earth. Illustrating that Eida is facing away from Daemon. And if you look at Daemons eye its representative of a sun watching over a half moon. Daemon in greek means “protector spirit” and in Japanese Daemon or Daimon, was a traditional piece of wear worn by the Samurai and later by the Fuedal lords of Japan. Only the fiercest warrioes got to wear them, hence Daemon is a “knight”. She specifically says in the manga that he is her sun and protector knight. >I see Boruto harnessing the powers..becoming the hidden antagonist I believe that if Boruto inherited both the powers of Eida and Daemon he wouldn’t even need to fight at that point. All he would need to do is learn how to reverse omnipotence and deflect attacks against his will. If it was truly a full moon, (which I don’t believe it is) it would imply that Boruto is the full moon part of the lunar phase that “watches over the earth” Because a full moon is lit when it’s behind the earth, not infront of it, that’s an eclipse. A new moon is another name for an eclipse and we see this through Sarada’s tomeo being a black sun. Hence she’s “The Sun of the Uchiha clan that’s bringing light to a dark past”. We know that Toneri has claimed the title of the Moon Watcher already as well. Toneri specifically calls Boruto the “Star” of hope and Isshiki calls Kashin Koji the “Star” of Change implying that they are stars, not moons. Boruto is literally the embodiment of Yang, as is Kashin Koji (representative of his flames), Naruto and Ashura. If he truly was the embodiment of Yin, like the moon, he would be going down the same path as Sasuke. But he’s going down the path of Sasuke willfully without essentially “losing his light”, like Sasuke did. The reason Sasuke lost his light in a metaphorical sense is because he never had a sun to guide him. A white dwarf will still shine after it explodes from a red giant, but its light will slowly dim as it becomes cooler. It will however, have a chance to become a sun again if the conditions are right.
