Why then is Mangekyou needed, if afterwards you don't even need eyes to manifest it? It seems to me that thus, other ways of manifesting Susanoo exist. It certainly seems logical to me that Susanoo is linked to Mangekyou (since the event is the same: the brain changes and creates a special chakra. This both activates the Susanoo KKG and the Mangekyou KKG). The question is: what is it that makes Susanoo require the Mangekyou to manifest initially, but not after?

Is it simply a misunderstanding, where the combined awakening is mistaken for a dependency?

Is it a state of mind you need for Susanoo, but it also automatically activates Mangekyou?

Is it because Susanoo is a product of imagination, that then needs physical energy to be manifested later? Does that mean that if you don't immediately use Susanoo but in stead wait, eventually you'll awaken a full Susanoo immediately?
