i have a weird complicated question that literally may not even matter because it depends 100 percent on whether i'm apping crau or not (i'm tempted! but not decided)
if you're canon familiar i'm so sorry
if you're not here it goes and i am also sorry x2:
itachi here comes from a long line of descended-from-alien-gods folks who have special magical eyeballs. if they upgrade their eyeballs enough (this happens via trauma) they get special sparklepowers known as the mangekyล. this power comes at the cost of degrading eyesight + basically implied to give them a Permanent Illness (canon is Vague about this so some people interpret this differently, I choose to view it as an immune response to the eyeball upgrade that damages the organs over time) the only way to fix this is to get a transplant of someone else's magical sparkly eyes.
for itachi, this never happens in canon. in the game he was in, for the sake of Not Dying or Being Blind, he got his dead bff's eyeballs from one of the NPCs. this did give him an upgraded ability that's in line with the way canon handles these things — something called a 'perfect susano'o' which is basically a giant chakra mech. by default, canon!itachi comes with an imperfect version but he does still have it, so essentially what this transplant gave him was an upgrade but not an entirely new power.
i know the app says 'no new powers gained in crau games' but i'd like to know how to approach this particular bit of anime nonsense.
if possible i'd like to keep the eyeballs (they're of sentimental value) and the 'no longer blind/dying' part of it all. i'm not married to keeping the perfect susano'o but wanted to doublecheck with you guys where the line would be drawn.
