In Boruto: Two Blue Vortex, Sarada Uchiha stands out as one of the most powerful kunoichi of the new generation. Daughter of Sasuke and Sakura, she evolved her Sharingan into the Mangekyou Sharingan, unlocking devastating abilities—but at the classic cost: gradual loss of vision. In Chapter 20 (and confirmed in recent chapters like 31), Sarada creates gravitational black holes with her technique Ōhirume, inspired by solar mythology.
This theory about her right eye possibly being tied to the aspect of "light" and restoration (capable of internally curing blindness without a transplant) has gained massive traction among fans, especially after detailed breakdowns on the YouTube channel FRED - ANIME WHATEVER (by creator Fred), which explored mythological connections and dojutsu mechanics in recent Two Blue Vortex chapter videos. The big speculation is that her right Mangekyou holds a restorative power, eliminating the need for a transplant like Sasuke did with Itachi.
The Curse of the Mangekyou Sharingan
Every Mangekyou user suffers vision deterioration from overusing their unique techniques. Sasuke, Itachi, and Obito all faced this, only resolving it with the Eternal Mangekyou via a close relative's eye transplant. Sarada, who awakened her Mangekyou through emotional trauma (protecting allies in the Land of Wind), already shows accelerated blindness signs in recent chapters. But her unique heritage (Uchiha + Haruno, with medical chakra control) opens doors to an innovative solution.
Ōhirume: The Power of the "Black Sun"
The revealed technique is Ōhirume (Great Sun Maiden), creating black spheres that act like mini black holes: they selectively absorb matter, control gravity, and devour everything—including light. It's an evolution of the black flames of Amaterasu (from Sasuke and Itachi), but focused on cosmic gravity and absorption. Fans note that classic Mangekyou abilities split between the eyes: one creates/destroys, the other controls or complements.
Mythological Inspiration: Destruction and Light
The name Ōhirume directly references the sun goddess Amaterasu (Shinto mythology, with Hindu echoes via Buddhism). The duality of sun/light vs. black hole/destruction suggests balance: while the left eye (or primary one) generates the destructive "Black Sun," the right could embody the restorative side—light that regenerates tissues, heals, or restores chakra/vision. This echoes goddesses like Saraswati (wisdom and creative light) or Usha (dawn and renewal), adapted into Boruto's lore.
The Internal Healing Theory
The core idea: Sarada's right eye holds a restorative light power, allowing self-healing of the blindness caused by overuse. Unlike traditional transplants, she could convert absorbed energy (from black holes) into regeneration—perhaps directly repairing ocular damage via medical chakra inherited from Sakura. This would break the tragic Uchiha cycle, positioning Sarada as a "singularity" in the clan: overwhelmingly powerful without permanent ocular weaknesses.
Fans point out that black holes "devour light," but in fiction this can be inverted—the light as a complementary opposite, restoring what was lost. It would be a perfect narrative evolution, avoiding repetition of old arcs and highlighting Sarada's growth. (This line of reasoning was widely discussed and refined in content from the FRED - ANIME WHATEVER channel, which brought deep analyses of her "solar" and dual Mangekyou potential.)
Conclusion
Still unconfirmed in the manga, but the theory gains strength with recent chapters showing accelerated blindness and the dual solar theme. If true, Sarada wouldn't need Sasuke's eyes—she'd be her own salvation. This would place her among the most broken characters in Boruto.
