Now explain how a magical tattoo turns lightning chakra black.

Or how there is more chakra than originally in the Shinju.

Or how Orochimaru switches bodies.

Some things can't be explained with Real-World logic & physics

1. The effect of the new Rinnegan chakra caused the newly empowered Sasuke to gain the ability to subconsciously access the Black Lightning technique. Or Yin chakra has been added to the mix. Or both, Black Lightning is really ill-defined in nature.

2. More people = more spiritual and physical energy = more chakra

3. Orochimaru delved deep into the worlds of chakra and science, amalgamating the two. He was able to convert himself, using this magiscience, into a snake being inhabiting a higher plane of existence, which required a human host (typically a corpse, after the effects of the jutsu take hold at least) to inhabit the base plane.

Explanations: provided! In series ones, at least.

In all honesty, science cannot be used when explaining some of the crazy happenings in this manga. I am not saying that our science is always the answer, here. Some of the stuff that happens (Hagoromo talking from beyond the grave and physically mutating our heroes, Kabuto being an exact genetic match for basically anyone and not rejecting foreign DNA invading his body, Kaguya being able to traverse through dimensions without tearing both the old and new dimensions apart, etc.) blatantly deny science as an applicable factor. When it is, though, and people deny or misconstrue that it is, I enlighten them.

Also, as I am prone to long blocks of text, I ask that we please stop the pyramid quoting. Quote JUST the post, or part of the post, you want to reply to, for everyone else's sake.
