Many readers have said that the timeline for Uchiha Shisui's appearance is wrong. Uchiha Shisui was not born at this time, and Uchiha Shisui and Uchiha Mirror are more than one generation apart.
Some readers even told me clearly that Uchiha Shisui is Kagami's grandson.
However, there are many intentionally blank spaces in the original work.
Every reader has a complete world setting of Naruto in their mind, filling in the "intentional blanks" of the original work.
As a result, there are many speculations about the relationship between Uchiha Mirror and Uchiha Shisui.
Many people even believe these speculations.
However, I checked the original work and found that this is the place that was intentionally left blank in the original work.
Regarding the settings of the original work:
1. Uchiha Mirror, died at the age of 25.
There is no specific time when Uchiha Kagami died. We only know that after World War I, Uchiha Kagami did not appear. And the age of Uchiha Kagami during World War I is also unknown. (ps: Don’t judge by appearance.
Many people judge Uchiha Shisui's age based on this, saying that Uchiha Itachi is younger than Sarutobi Asuma, and Itachi calls Shisui his elder brother, so Shisui is younger than Sarutobi Asuma.
Sarutobi Asuma is the youngest son of Sarutobi Hiruzen, and Kagami was 25 years old. Kagami should have died before Sarutobi Asma was born.
Therefore, Uchiha Mirror is more than one generation older than Uchiha Shisui.
There should be a generation between Uchiha Mirror and Shisui.
I would like to say that this theory is based on the most unreliable assumption that calling someone "eldest brother" can calculate your age.
3. In the animation, Kishimoto added some new "drama" to Uchiha Shisui. When the third generation mentioned the mirror, Uchiha Shisui said "it's not as good as his father".
Regarding this "father", many people say that the Japanese word can be understood as "father, father, elder", and this word cannot be used to determine seniority and age.
I don't understand Japanese, so I believed it.
My personal novel setting:
(See clearly, this is the setting of my novel. The setting of the novel is to serve the plot and is not necessarily universal.)
During the Uchiha Mirror period, the leader of the Uchiha clan was the one who led the entire clan to side with Konoha in the original novel and did not choose Uchiha Madara.
Uchiha Fugaku was the patriarch of the Uchiha clan during the Itachi era.
During the Uchiha Kagami period, the age difference between Fugaku and Kagami was not too big.
Fugaku and the then patriarch of the Uchiha clan were separated by one generation, that is to say, Fugaku was the next clan leader.
In other words, Uchiha Kagami and Fugaku should be considered peers.
Uchiha Shisui, in my setting, is the descendant of Uchiha Kagami. (See clearly, he is a descendant, not his biological son.)
Uchiha Itachi is Fugaku's son.
Uchiha Shisui and Uchiha Itachi are considered peers.
If they have the same seniority, it is reasonable for the younger ones to call the older ones "big brother", right?
As for the age issue, or the appearance and age of the characters in the original work, I would say this is a bug.
As long as Orochimaru is still young Shota, Sarutobi Hiruzen will become a white-haired old man. When Orochimaru betrays Konoha, Sarutobi Hiruzen will still be a white-haired old man. When Orochimaru kills Sarutobi Hiruzen, Sarutobi Hiruzen will
He is still an old man, and his hair seems to be a little darker.
Orochimaru was still a young Shota, and he picked up Kaguya Kimimaro. I remember that at that time, Momochi Zabuza picked up Haku at the same time. When Haku grew up, Orochimaru became an uncle, and Momochi Zabuza didn't look old at all.
.
Therefore, don’t judge a person by his appearance. This is what primary school teachers teach you.
In fact, there are bugs in many of these locations in the original work, and there's nothing we can do about it. Kishimoto was a mess when he was studying, so don't expect the world he conceived to be so rigorous.
When reading novels, as long as the parts are not too inconsistent, they can all be justified.
The reason why many readers feel that Shisui's age is inconsistent in my book.
The only reason is that in the Naruto fanfics these readers read before, Shisui was not of the same age, so they preconceived the idea, and the Naruto world in their minds directly absorbed that "setting".
When a person has a fixed worldview for a certain story, he or she generally cannot accept other worldview settings.
My suggestion is: calm down, it’s just an online article, just enjoy reading it. Comments are welcome, but don’t be too hasty to deny it.
If you really can't accept my setting, you can read my Naruto story as an imaginary novel.
Well, when I think about it, I feel like I have written two novels.
