How would it be possible...

But it is not equivalent to precognition.

Yes it is. I see precognition as having 3 different ways of portraying itself. Mental precognition, when you know something before it happens. Visual precognition, when you see something before it happens. Physical precognition, also known as intuitive reflex, when you feel something before it happens.

Sasuke can't use his sharingan to tell him how things will happen until he sees those things in person.

That's how precognition works, there has to be a initiate or starting point to something that causes everything else to happen.

Even then still not in the same manner precog does.

Again, there is no definite or main way for precognition to occur. It splits into three different categories, which differ a lot from one another.

If Sasuke could use his Sharingan to say "Naruto's gonna knock on my door in 2 minutes" then it happens that is precognition abilities.

That is a mental form of using precognition. However, the Sharingan is based on visual processes, not mental.


If he uses it to predict what hand seals an enemy is going to use based off the twitching of his right hand 3rd fingertip that's not precog

Technically, it is. Even if he needs a starting point to initiate his visual precognition, being able to see/predicts what happens next is literally the definition of precognition, foreknowledge of an event that has not occurred yet. That ninja has yet to make the next hand sign, but if Sasuke can predict it before he does, then he just used precognition.

because he needed a catalyst to activate his prediction abilities.

Everything that occurs is because a catalyst or stimulus has started that event. So even if Sasuke uses mental precognition to know the future before it happens, that future that he predicts would have still needed a starting point in order for it to occur in the first place. Without a starting point, that specific event would not have occured.

People can call it what they want, I'm bored of trying to explain the difference right now.

It's fine, I don't mind shedding light on your predetermined misconceptions :sdo:

The role play i'm in isn't a part of the plot. I just need some detailed way to justify my character seeing the future...

Exactly. You can't. Oracles usually show the falling of an empire and all that's left is to guess exactly how it comes about. Here's an idea. Know how sharingan development goes hand in hand with emotions and near death experiences? And your life usually flashes before your eyes when that happens? Yeah... that's all I got. Try tie it in with that maybe?

Alternatively. Say a great Oracle was slain and his chakra latched on to this person or this person found his remaining life essence/chakra wisps.

This is all I want, some sort of justification for an ability like this. It has to correlate with chakra though. the sharingan part was a good idea, but it doesn't seem all to realistic. I'll figure it out :wesobi:

That's the tricky bit. Chakra and it's origins is pretty much set in stone. You could theorize that tiny wisps remain when a person dies and you receive their memories/their loved ones future/see the future of whatever they were thinking about when they died OR they act as fuel for future seeing and you can only see the wisps using MS but we all know that's limited.

Thanks for everything! I'll try and come up with something using what i've learned.

I would rep you but I keep saying I need to spread the rep. I tried yesterday as well, but I guess I haven't spread much since then.

Space and Time are connected, if you have an eye that can see through dimensions (space) then you could have a second eye that can see through time, and the third power could be space-time travel instead of Susano'o (Sharingan can travel through space so anything is possible)
