We call it curse mark because the seal releases Senjutsu chakra like CM

Yeah tbh it isn't a curse seal, but I'm looking at it for reference because of how it operates. There's two big differences between what a Curse Seal does, and what the Byakugou does. Skipping through all the technicalities, one stores chakra for healing purposes, and one stores senjutsu for physical/spiritual enhancements.

My guess is that it might work as a mixture of the both. It probably stores either chakra or senjutsu, and uses it as an enhancement.

Though I think what might separate them is due to how it'll grow. For instance, the Byakugou is complete when the person stores enough chakra and releases it. In contrast, the Curse Seal grows when the person succumbs to it.

My guess is since Boruto wasn't training to store chakra in the seal like normal Byakugou users, it'll probably be something he has to control and might even lose control over it.

Just assumptions though.

I think the big difference is byakgou is a regular sealing jutsu placed on self and the only setback of technique is how it functions taking way some of your life force due to the stress of the technique. While curse marks and other fuin jutsu have so far been placed on others and it makes users linked and is used to control them in some form.

Based on this it fits a curse marks more, I personally think momoshiki sealed his life force in boruto to either overtake him or resurface at a later time.

But it is a curse mark.

That Momo look-alike was the one that placed it on him when he grabbed Boruto's arm. I don't understand how people came to the conclusion that the mark manifest itself when he killed Momo, when it was clearly shown that he grabbed Boruto's arm and placed some pressure on it.

The fate he talked about had something to do with Boruto's eyes.

Everyone knows it's not literally a ****ing curse mark. What's your problem?

Pls see my prev responses tosee what my problem is.

there are different types of Curse marks.

But this isn't one.

no...a curse mark is literally a seal...the actual name for it is "juinjutsu" which translates to "cursed seal"

Indeed, but curse marks serve a different purpose compared to a seal. What Boruto has is a seal that probably formed from the mixture of Naruto's chakra when they formed the rasengan, Hyuga blood, and making contact with Momo.

We call it curse mark because the seal releases Senjutsu chakra like CM

Well ya'll will see that you're wrong in due time. Much more nuanced than that.

Destiny Mark.

I could live with this.

I think the seal formed from mixture of Naruto's chakra, having Hyuga blood, and making contact with a pure Ootsuki.

NOPE. Re-read the scans....no indication that Momo placed the mark on him...the mark manifested itself after the rasengan attack.....and when Momo talked about the curse, he referenced Boruto's blue eyes and the fact that he can never be an ordinary person after having defeated a god....that seal is the byproduct of mixture of Naruto's chakra, having Hyuga blood, and making contact with a pure Ootsuki.


Burrito has a curse mark :kk:

Nah. See previous comments.

...Mikasa are you really saying that Boruto unlocked the seal on his own when the author put emphasis on Momoshiki grabbing his hand, which in turn after he disappeared, put another teaser of Boruto looking at his hand to solidify that something only happened after meeting the 2nd Otsutsuki?

Not that he formed it on his own, but that it's a byproduct of Naruto's chakra, Hyuga blood, and contact with pure Ootsuki chakra....Momo grabbed his wrist, not his hand....why didn't the seal form on his wrist if Momo gave it to him.....why is the seal at the palm of his hand where Naruto infused his chakra into the rasengan and he used to make contact with Momo via rasengan?

And notice Boruto could sense Momo when not even Naruto could....why?...that hyuga blood....

Then flashes to Sasuke's rinnegan and the palm of Momo's hand (his rinnegan):

He formed that seal as a result of mixture of Hyuga blood, contact with naruto's chakra, and contact with Momo......just like Sasuke developed his rinnegan as a result of mixture of hashi cells and Hago chakra....

....look at the sequence of events in the rest of chapter 10.....Momo's speech and having awakened the palm seal is what lead Boruto to embrace Sasuke's ninja way....he's about to walk a similar path to Sasuke's...

Side note: notice how Sarada's eyes keep going from dark to lightly shaded during her exchange with Boruto....baby girl's about the awaken another tomoe....she awakened the sharingan through mere excitement and anxiety of meeting her dad....now additional tomoes from her feelings for Boruto....she'll have MS in no time.

That's a terrible hypothesis. Nothing even backs it up since no one in the story has had such a mark. Why doesn't Bolt have it here then, as we can see his palm clearly? I'm guessing you're going to say it takes time to develop?

Just further strengthens my theory.....Uzumaki chakra? Check! Hyuga blood? Check! Contact with pure Ootsuki chakra? Check!....thus forms the seal....Momo didn't necessarily GIVE it to him though....all a byproduct of all those elements combined.

Then why doesn't Bolt have it before meeting Momoshiki?

Maybe my initial statement that his contact with the rasengan plus Hyuga blood and Uzumaki chakra created the seal.....maybe meeting Momo's chakra and Momo directly holding his wrist is the final ingredient to create the seal as a byproduct.

Mikoto you can clearly see Momohiki's hand on his palm

Lastly, Kawaki gets the seal too and I doubt he's half the genetic beast Naruto is.

It's a seal not mark. sasuke, danzo, neji, all had some variant of curse seals which either enhances or restricts the body.

Every curse mark is a sealing jutsu. It came to have the name "curse mark" to appear sinister, and of course because it carries some risks and was granted to Sasuke without his consent in order to drive him towards Orochimaru. But, in the end, it's just a seal that stores and releases Senjutsu chakra.

Boruto had a similar seal placed on him, by a villain, without his consent. The parallels to the Curse Mark are obvious, and people understand that it's not *literally* a curse mark. Citing a ton of extremely narrow differences (what the mark looks like, what the pattern looks like) is meaningless. No one is literally mistaking one for the other. No one expects Orochimaru to jump out of Boruto's palm. No one thinks his mark contains Senjutsu stemming from Juugo's KKG.

"Curse Mark" is being used loosely, using the obvious parallels as a reference point. When the OP discounts the use of those parallels, while simultaneously spouting his own fan theory about how Naruto's chakra + Hyuuga genes + Momoshiki = a new "Seal" being unlocked, it becomes impossible to have a rational conversation. He allows himself to spout theories while needlessly "discrediting" a usage of terminology that was never taken literally, but merely as a shared reference.
