You just don't want to stick to Hagoromo's actual words. If it was actually autority instead of power as well, he would've mentioned that in words. And again, then the sutuation between Asura/Indra and Naruto/Sasuke wouldn't be comparable at all, if it was the authority in one case and a real power in another. Yet, Hagoromo uses the word "power" in both. Yes you are. You are ignoring context and misinterpreting his words. The only form of power Hagoromo gave to Asura is authority. Authority is a form of power, is it not? He made no mention of giving Asura actual power between the time he stated that he made him successor of Ninshuu and the time he explained how his sons continued their fued after their deaths. Therefore, anytime he mentioned power in relation to Asura and Indra, he means authority. Giving Asura actual power wouldn't accomplish anything. Can you or can you not give people gifts without the gifts being the same thing? The situation between Asura/Indra and the situation between Naruto/Sasuke would still be similar regardless Ravenlot 27 wrote: Actualy, it's relevant, since it could've prevented something at least. Hagoromo himself admitted he entrusted everything to a single son while casting the attention away from the other one completely, which has led to Indra going mad. Hagoromo was even a bit a hypocryte, since he wanted for his sons to cooperate, but at the same time has shown no sign he believes in Indra as well. Had Indra received some power from him as a sign of his trust, he could've accepted Asura's position as a leader of ninshu and become willing to cooperate per father's wishes. Actually it isn't as it wouldn't do anything. Hagoromo passed on the leadership of Ninshuu (which is everything to Hagoromo) to Asura and expected Indra to cooperate with him. If Hagoromo gave Indra actual power, that would give Indra a means to turned Ravenlot 27 wrote: A lot of things didn't occur in the manga, including Asura/Indra actua conflict, but we know about them from other characters' words as with Hagoromo, and this is the one of them. As a already said, anime isn't contradicting here, since Hagoromo said about it in the manga. But it is......as Hagoromo didn't mention actual freaking power
