it's not choppy, nobody is disagreeing, it's just super obvious.

We are meant to think that Kashin Koji = Jiraiya.

Rasengan and Toads aren't the only similarity.

That one close-up panel in chapter 21 hints at Jiraiya's red tear ( https://file-comic-4n1.anyacg.co/images/54/8c/548c227bce13409b0f2dbb6ea6febd595d1b7485_168330_870_1226.jpg ).

The fire techniques.

Him acknowledging Orochimaru and Sarutobi.

The white hair, black eyes.

His relationship to Konoha.

What the manga wants us to think is: "hey it's Jiraiya!" but it's obviously not, cuz that would simply be bad writing. So the question becomes who else is Kashin Koji, and why do they want us to think its Jiraiya?
