Despite Sarada Uchiha obtaining her Mangekyo Sharingan at the end of Boruto: Naruto: Next Generations, fans have still not witnessed her utilizing her newfound powers, even a year after the release of Boruto: Two Blue Vortex manga.
Consequently, fans have been speculating about the potential abilities she might possess, drawing upon the details revealed in the manga. During this time, a fan online proposed a theory proposing that Sarada’s Mangekyo Sharingan could be linked to the Japanese Sun God Amaterasu.

Boruto Theory: Sarada’s Mangekyo Sharingan and Solar Energy Absorption
As per a theory proposed by a fan of Boruto on X @BorutoAnimeClub, it is possible that Sarada Uchiha’s Mangekyo Sharingan ability is inspired by the Japanese Goddess Amaterasu, similar to her father Sasuke Uchiha.
It is clear that both Itachi Uchiha and Sasuke Uchiha possessed powerful abilities from the beginning. Itachi had Amaterasu (Solar Power) and Tsukuyomi, while Sasuke had Flame Control. However, after Sasuke implanted Itachi’s Mangekyo Sharingan into himself, he also gained Amaterasu. Therefore, it can be concluded that both brothers initially possessed Solar Powers.
Likewise, just as Sarada Uchiha’s Mangeko Sharingan eyes bear a striking resemblance to the sun, it is highly likely that she will also possess a power linked to either the Sun Goddess Amaterasu or the Flame God Kagutsuchi.
Amaterasu Ōmikami, also referred to as Amaterasu, is the revered Sun Goddess in Shintoism and the ruler of the High Plane of Heaven, succeeding her father Izanagi. As a result of her lineage, she was regarded as the most sacred deity worshipped in Japan.
Sarada has the potential to inherit powers that are connected to her, which could manifest in the form of Solar Manipulation, Empowerment, or Absorption Technique.
With her Mangekyo Sharingan eyes, Sarada Uchiha possesses the ability to manipulate various elements of the Sun, such as intense heat, brightness, gravitational and magnetic forces, as well as nuclear energy and reactions.
A Solar Empowerment technique could potentially enhance her strength, speed, and durability when exposed to sunlight. This could potentially result in the activation of her latent abilities, enabling her to harness the power of the sun and potentially even store chakra.
Finally, Sarada Uchiha could utilize a Solar Absorption technique with her Mangekyo Sharingan to absorb solar energy. This would allow her to extract energy or chakra from a source and absorb it into her body, giving her the ability to utilize it in various ways. This technique may be comparable to the Leech Life move found in the Pokemon universe, and it could potentially give Sarada a temporary or permanent advantage in battle.
It is possible that Sarada Uchiha possesses abilities related to the sun because it was likely part of manga creator Masashi Kishimoto’s intention for all members of Team 7 to represent a celestial body.
It is clear that Mitsuki’s name holds significance as it is translated to mean “Moon,”and Boruto’s Rasengan Uzuhiko utilizes the energy of the planet’s chakra. Additionally, there is the potential for Sarada Uchiha to harness chakra from the Sun.
