U should do the hidden stone village economy and there unique jutsu, and also in the naruto vs konohamaru chunin exam u see 2 stone shinobi with one having a frilled lizard and the other with a battle ram i think it would be cool but only when u have the free time
A lot of names are repeated for other stuff in Naruto but no one really references this. For example, Kurama is the name of the Nine Tails and also the name a genjutsu clan. Kiba is the name of the ninja hound user and also the name of swords belonging to the Seven Swordsmen. Kaguya is name of an Otsutsuki and also the name of Kimimaro's clan. Hagaromo is the Sage of Six Paths and also the name of a clan from during warring states period during Hashirama and Madara's younger days. I just thinks it's a little weird nobody mentions this in the story.
That is because Kiba more or less means "Fang", so it can be used for shortswords or swords with fanglike attributes, just as you can use it as the name for a boy in a dog herding clan :P. Same theory goes for the Kaguya and Hagoromo clans. Those are named that way, because they have ancestry going back to them, and share one of their abilities. Like the uchiha did inherit Indras abilities, and the Senju and Uzumaki did inherit Asuras. Those two clans are probably from some watered down bloodline descending from asura or indra. The Kaguya clan only inherited the Shikotsumyaku ability, to control their bone structure, a weaker version of the ability kaguya displayed, coating it in black, to create withering rods. Just like Jugos Clan, and their exposure to Ryuchi Cave that Orochimaru uncovered, seems to be what triggered their heritage, of having bodies that are more atune to taking in natural energy, but lacking the control they need over it, to not go berserk. So they are most likely somehow linked to Asura and his body that already had a higher life force capability, and was further enhanced by Hagoromo endorsing him with the remainder of his Sage of Six Paths powers. So while there is a common multi use of names, it usually never happens without some connection that either gets pointed out, hinted towards, or can be explained by the names inherent meaning :D.
@@MrHikagemono The Kiba blades were dual wielded by two different Seven Swordsmen, Ameyuri Ringo and Raiga Kurosuki. Out of the two, Naruto only fought Raiga and being the clown he is I feel like he would have pointed out that the swords are named after his friend Kiba or something like that. It definitely sounds like a Naruto thing to do.
One could imagine that the names of the original users where eventually used and passed down by other people like how the great naruto bridge was named after naruto(obviously), eventually say a group of people begin to live around the bridge. They may begin to call themselves the naruto clan or whatever
Literally makes my morning seeing the notification. I've been showing my fiance and my 9 year old your videos ( since we are raising a little weeb) and it makes her like naruto WAY more than she already did! Keep up the awesome uploads man!
Im mad that Sakura didn’t get genjutsu because ignoring how they hype her being immune to it, her name means “Cherry blossom” and that’s just asking for a dope flowery genjutsu. Like Kurenai and her trees, except there’s a lot of Cherry blossoms and like she could add sound to it or something
I agree. The female characters rly had wasted potential and everyone be praising itachi’s genjutsu just because he’s the character that uses it the most and ignore the fact that kishimoto basically also wasted genjutsu on sharingan even tho it could’ve been a much more interesting and complex power than just staring with red eyes.
It was such a missed potential. She has probably the best chakra control of any non-Ōtsutsuki in the series and they… just didn’t give her genjutsu. The thing that needs precise chakra control…
Kakashi stated that she would be a good genjutsu user cuz of her chakra control, when he didn’t the bell test after the time skip. Sadara gonna be op .
If she was into genjutsu as well, couldn’t she technically use it as anesthetic? So when she heals people I’m battle, she puts them under it and they can’t feel the pain till she’s healed them? Plus if she has genjutsu and she paralyzes someone, then uses her insane stren- dude they screwed her over a ton
I remember that arc. Yakomo's genjutsu was real for lack of a better term. It was an illusion. What ever she decided to make happened, it was real. The idea of it was so devastating. If Yakomo would have painted a picture of a village and erased it, that village would dissappear for real.
Only if she got someone to enter the genjutsu I will explain : Yakumo is Genjutsu can be materialised in real life or have real repercution in the real world only if she got someone to enter her Genjutsu as a example In the first episodes where Naruto met Yakumo ( the girl) the thunder cloud materialised only when Naruto witness the difference between what she was painting and reality ( that is when he was inside the Genjutsu ) So basically she stll need to trap someone inside her illusion to have any effect ( it's a cool drew back )
I feel like Kurenai was a wasted character, she should have been a member of the Chinoike clan who left her village and didn't unlock her full powerset. I always wondered why her eyes were red outside of the Uchidas. The Chinoikes should have been a bigger deal, they could have just made the Chinoikes and Kuramas the same clan instead that keep popping up as a threat.
I remember being shocked that there was a kurama clan. Especially when the kurama is a nine tailed fox I had to know more and that led me to much more filler I wish was real.
I think Kishimoto hadn't plan the Kyuubi's name yet when he introduced the Kurama Clan 😂. I mean it's in part 1 Naruto when the only tailed beast we know the name of is Shukaku.
@@Just_B0red I don't think you can casually seal people in Naruto and gain their powers, if it would be so simple Orochimaru wouldn't need to change that many "containers"
@@Just_B0red lol no. The kurama clan and the kaguya clan aka kimimarus clan are clans that happen to have names like Chakra power houses can't be a coincidence. At least not kimimarus clan
I wonder if this "Ito" is actually a being from a different dimension that gives these people power, like how the Death Reaper is a being from another dimension or how that memory-eating demon was also a being from another dimension. Now that dimension travelling in naruto has been confirmed, it does seem plausible, otherwise such godly abilities are way too powerful to just pop out of nowhere in a human.
It's Ido but yes that makes sense like something the comes from the mind dimension and the Kekkei Genkai harnesses the power of that dimension something like "The Dark" in the game grim quest
I was really impressed when I watched the arc. Genjutsu that makes itself real? Heavy stuff. I never made the connection between it and Creation of all Things because I don’t think it is the same effect. Technically speaking, I don’t think we ever saw her use the genjutsu to create anything other than an illusion, or to destroy something. Creation of all Things does just that, create all things. The ability to destroy isn’t technically a part of it. So perhaps the ability to turn your genjutsu into a destructive force is a separate ability that doesn’t require Otsutsuki chakra, but is equivalent and opposite to Creation of all Things
Genjutsu is literally the most effective and powerful way to fight. Itachi proves this in every single one of his fights and remain untouched and undefeated.
I think the author didn't insist in Genjutsu because it was too OP, like, he had to give Itachi an unknown disease because he couldn't find a plausible way for him to be defeated.
I am surprised that I called the clan before I clicked on the video. The Kurama clan is one of my top 10 favorite clans in all of Naruto (Boruto included).
I love your description of the snack boxes. Idk which i want to do... But as someone who does bonsai (45-50 tree and greenhouse) at times I wish I understood Japanese to read some of the books(not just the translated ones bc its not a even translation) as well as some of the cut pastes and other things that I use.
Lol I had a conversation years ago in college about this from a good friend who’s not here anymore. I smiled when I heard this on your vid as I remember him taking this stance on the Kurama clan being broken all those years ago.
@@acpeji unfortunately no, he passed while on the 5 Kage Summit arc in the manga. Would’ve loved to hear his thoughts on the whole aliens thing though lol
@@clouddavis Damn life is too short... He didn't see the ending of Naruto... I hope I live long enough so I can watch anime with my kids in the future lol...
Here is a potential "What If" topic. "What if Naruto realized the benefits of the Shadow Clone/Multi Shadow Clone Jutsu from the beginning?" Love the channel
You are literally so BASED, in all your videos are the things you talked are stuff that i readed from Wikis and other sources! You are incredible, finally someone in the TH-cam Community is actually speaking FACTS. Your point of view is soooo good, hoping to see more!
The thing about fillers it's that they don't explore all the possibilities. Maybe that genjutsu have limitations, like, she can't directly affect living things with that jutsu (similar to how Ishiki's abilities to make things smaller can't be used on living things); or that it expands way more chakra then materializing a lighting (thus she tried to erase Kurenai for half an episode, slowly, instead of killing her). And, yes, it's filler, they can basically put one-punch-man in a filler and then, that would be the "strongest person in Narutoverse". I'm not sure about being the strongest genjutsu user with what we saw either, like, Itachi killed Izumi by putting her in a tsukuyomi for 80 years, where she lived her whole life with Itachi, had kids and then died peacefully. And, he consumed around half his chakra for this, meaning that he can potentially put people in 160 years worth of Tsukuyomi with only one charge. If he can damage them as much as he did with Kakashi in 48 hours, that would be enough to kill almost 30 000 people! (also, after learning about Itachi, it's clear he never intended to kill Kakashi, who is an important pillow in Konohagakure). And, don't forget that Izanagi rewrites the whole universe, in both space and time, even if it's for a couple of minutes, and have limitations, I think it still qualifies as the strongest genjutsu there can be! And regarding Kotoamatsukami, it is known that Sharingan abilities used by their original owner, used with both eye-pair, are stronger, so I have the impression that the Kotoamatsukami casted by Shisui Uchiha would be much stronger then the one used by Danzo, and possibly impossible to break, by simply physically rewiring the brain of the target. Why else would he try to use the ability on the chef of the Uchiha Clan, who is an Uchiha at a Kage-level with Mongekyo Sharingan awoken, surrounded by a ton of Uchihas who could check his chakra and brake him free of the genjutsu? Oh, and let's not forget about Izanami, if Izanagi can change the destiny of the user, Izanami can DECIDE the destiny of it's target. And the target can either be trapped forever in the loop (oh, well, until they die); or, can "accept their destiny", which basically is not much different then Kotoamatsukami (but can be used by any Uchiha in exchange for one eye). Yeah, I'm not saying that I'm happy they overloaded the Uchiha clan with God-like genjutsu and ninjutsu, in my opinion the first series was superior in keeping most clans relevant with their unique abilities. In Shippuden was all about Uchiha and Senju, making the whole Naruto-verse look much, much, smaller. Like, the whole world basically became Konoha, and the whole Konoha basically became Uchiha and Senju.
I've always considered genjutsu the strongest jutsu in the Naruto-verse, I didn't realize that was such a controversial take, lol But yeah, I'm pretty sure the reason why it didn't get used more was because it's kinda hard to illustrate
I was gunna say the same thing. Saske and Itachis fight, saske vs deidera, saske vs danzo (a lot of saske lol) obito and kakashi using kamui, the inffinite sukuyomi, saske and itachi vs kabuto... There was A LOT of genjutsu it just became less relevant because the characters were so strong most genjustu wouldnt work in them
I always loved Genjutsu. I have this thing i do where i create a character for every anime i really love, back story, abilities, appearence etc etc, i digress. But My character for Naruto used a scent based genjutsu paired with the ability to make his genjutsu abilities "come to life" or be made real using a special type of pure white chakra specific to his clan, and is a kekkei tota. I know, i'm a nerd and a weeb and have too much time on my hands. But its a fun little exercise i do. See how in depth i can create this character from the ground up and insert "him" or in some cases "her" into whatever anime im watching at the time.
Can you do a video called All Hand Signs Explained. Where you explain all of them, and what they do, what they look like, why do you need hand signs to make jutsu and all that stuff.
Shisui’s Koto is the only plot hole that keeps me up at night. He was only 14-16 years old when he died. That would mean he’d have to awaken his MS at 4-6 years old to test out the 10 year thing. But Ao was able to decipher that Hanzo was under Shisui’s genjutsu due to fighting against him in the 3rd Great Ninja War. This would mean that Shisui had used Koto in the War. But he also planned to use Koto on Fugaku, which would’ve been less than 10 years. My brain always hurts over this.
My understanding is that the ten year cool down is for ppl who aren’t Shisui it don’t have Hashirama cells. Like how Kakashi can’t use the sharigan to its fullest because he’s not a Uchiha (same with Ao’s Byakugan)
For shishui the cooldown for koto is only 1 day. For others using his eyes they need hashirama cells to get that 1 day cooldown. Or else it'll be 10 years.
I’m pretty sure the whole 10 year thing doesn’t apply to Shisui. Danzo isn’t an Uchiha, and the Sharingan is natural to Shisui, snd Shisui pros it has a bigger chakra reserve than Danzo. Shisui likely can use Kotoamatsukami in a much shorter cooldown time since it’s natural for him. Also Shisui using genjutsu on Hanzo couldve just been a normal genjutsu and not Kotoamatsukami.
I remember about this episode and this is way they said Sui was the only person to stop Sasuke after he He bled ink out his eyes and crazy how she shaped reality and can kill you if something happens in the genjutsu
Madara can do this with his mangekyou, it wasn’t canon it was just in the anime but still it’s the only insight to his abilities, he records a moment, rewinds time, and changes what happened
Someone can fall under Genjutsu via one of the 5 senses. Has there been any occurrence where smell and taste was used? We've seen it done visually (infinite tsukuyomi), auditory (toads), and through touch (Chinoike clan).
You mean, only smell and only taste? Tsukuyomi (and, of course, Mugen Tsukuyomi) traps ALL senses a person have (which on top on the classic 5, you can add proprioception, pain, equilibrioception). For example, Itachi gave Izumi a whole 80 years life with genjutsu, obvious trapping all her senses.
@@danielclv97 Activated only by one. Like Tsukuyomi usually traps a person via sight first (even if someone doesn't look at Itachi in the eyes they still end up in a genjutsu). Jiraiya's toads' genjutsu activated when Pain heard it. And the Chinoike clan use sight and touch to activate their genjutsu. Have there been occurrences that genjutsu is activated through taste or smell?
Would love to hear your best squad for taking down Otsosuki with currently alive characters. Mine is: Naruto (obvious reasons) Sasuke (^same but give this man an arm and Shin's Mongekyo for space time ninjutsu) Orochimaru (his instant healing and jutsu mastery) Kabuto (sage mode and healing) Jugo (could take hits from A and live and can heal others and he innately uses sage chakra, granted he is nerfed big time in Boruto) Killer B (if not nerfed in Boruto would be strong and fast enough to help) Gara (can seal and has decent defense, would be a good back up) Toneri (if they can unseal him that is) I know Orochimaru and Kabuto could also use Edo Tensei but I don't see them actually doing that.
@@starshooter2470 so Naruto, Orochimaru, Kabuto, Killer B, Tonerie, and Jugo don't need to be healed that much unless it's lethal damage which Sakura couldn't stop anyways. Sasuke and Gara could use it, if their defenses get broken through, but Kabuto and Jugo (and maybe Orochimaru) are there and can heal better as they can replace entier organs/limbs if they are lost as Sakura could only repair damage done but not completely replace stuff. Plus they are better fighters and faster (again Jugo got nerfed in Boruto so maybe not). I just didn't find it necessary to add her.
Nice to see the Kurama clan getting some recognition, if I had to pick a clan from Konoha I would have picked them for their genjutsu. And I actually remember them from before this video. And not all clans have kekei genkai per se, some have just developed hidden ninjutsu, like the Ino-Shika-Cho clans and the Inuzuka.
Finally. I mentioned this clan ages ago as the strongest genjutsu users, but I never thought Yakumo would get mentioned. I'm glad she's finally getting some shine. Could u imagine what would have happened if she became a Akatsuki member.
Imagine if Yakimo was a cannon character and was friends with the Konoha 13 then married Rock Lee, the abilities on Metal Lee would be massively insane. one of the worlds's greatest Taijutsu masters mixed with the world's most talented (non ocular) Genjutsu. If Metal couldn't get close enough to you to he could make it happen with his genjutsu. each ability compensating for the other's weaknesses but let's be glad that didn't happen because the whole being possessed by your own Id would not help with Metal's stage fright and anxiety
It depends if metal really wants to be able to do things without stage fright the id is basically your desire if he desires to be confident then his Ido should be a confident one
Genjutsu & Eight Gates would complement Tsunade and Sakura's combat style. You need perfect chakra control for Medical Ninjutsu, Chakra Enhanced Strength (CES), and Genjutsu. Imagine Tsunade or Sakura using A & S class Genjustu such as Bringer of Darkness or Kurenai's Binging Tree Genjustu along with Eight Gates enhanced Chakra Scalpels or CES punches! They would literally be God of Shinobi level!
@@JayDeezy94 nah.. tsunade and Sakura are fine the way they are u gotta remember 5sunade and Sakura don't fight anymore Sakura is now in charge at the leaf hospital she has no use for either 4 styles/releases
@@bonniecarr1300 she can still go on missions like in Sarada Gaiden who heads the sensory part of Konoha was out on a mission with Choji she can use it for training purposes
I’ve been sitting at my job since 6am waiting for the notification that you posted a video! Thank you man everything you teach me I go home and teach my kids they love your videos too!
Really cool video but I would use timestamps Also I have a question about the Tsukuyomi could you use it as a training method so you get „trapped“ in it and can train 72hrs in one sec?
Yo, NCHammer23, I'm really digging the neuro bass remixes of Naruto songs in your intros (and sometimes outros?). I'd love it if you made a video about all the songs and artists you have and use for your videos since I'm a fan of that genre. I just haven't listened to it as much since it's not as popular these days but still really enjoy it
What if shisui had the ems,the 10 year break between uses wouldn't apply right? And what if itachi put shisui's eye in his left eye ems and limitless tsykuyomi/kotoamatsukami right?
Can we get a video on how insanely different genjutsu is depending on who uses it? Seen too many people try to equate regular genjutsus to MS like kotoamatsukami How they work, how to beat them, does the target need chakra, etc...
Yo Nick can you make a video about Han the 5 tails jinchuriki. Like I have been searching alot but can’t find anything about him anywhere. That’s really unfortunate bc he looks like a very interesting character.
What if an uchiha and a kurama clan member made the child with the Ido, and used Kotoamatsukami on Ido to rewrite it to obey the user? That would depend on if those genjutsu work on the Ido, but if it does, then you could theoretically control Ido and have creation of all things ability
I liked that arc and had some thoughts about it which align with what you think about it. I believe she could 1v1 juubidara if that was her show now XD🤣🤣
This is off topic from the video but do you think you could do a demon slayer what if? 2 ideas what if Rengoku surived and what if rengoku choose to turn into a demon.

The entirety of naruto had super plot armor since the moment madara was reanimated, he could spam boulders, spam susanoo, spam his mangekyou abilities, spam his rinnegan abilities, so basically shoot almighty push like a machine gun, he could coat the 1000 hand wood statue in susanoo, he could straight up just almighty pull everyone to one spot and then cut them with his susanoo, he had uchiha flames, he was so goddamn busted as a reanimation, he already did stab sasuke and could’ve killed him, actually sasuke did die but got revived cause plot armor, madara dodged the fastest shinobi(s) in history and somehow some way black zetsu manages to back stab madara six paths two rinnegan with 4 limbo clones, imagine if madara got everyone’s chakra from infinite tsukuyomi then kills both naruto and sasuke, hell they might both be under genjutsu since the moment they actually died and boruto is a genjutsu
thank you so much, from when the episode that introduces the Kurama clan if they mix with the Hyuga clan in a ying, yang also a affinity of ying yang release, that had a seal to control edo that person could create the reality
same here what a wasted opportunity for her to Do a lot more than in the show plus him, not Giving female characters in Naruto, in general, more screen time to show what they can do
I'm more upset that there were a team that had a genjutsu specialist as a teacher and none of them, not even the teacher had any serious skills with genjutsu.
@@athenawolf4467 They had her in charge of the tracking specialist team for some reason. Kakashi should have been in charge of Team 8 as he does have decent tracking skills (via his summons) and his Sharingan would have been a bit useful in helping Hinata. Kurenai being a genjutsu user would have been very useful in turning Sakura into one and making Sasuke into an elite one with his Sharingan. Goes to show that the 3rd Hokage may have been an elite ninja, but his management and administrative skills were sorely lacking.
I wish they revive this clan in Boruto but instead of reviving teach it to inojin and also have him fully master mind transfer he would literally be broken asf
in my opinion ,One of the strongest ginjutsues in Naruto is used by Naruto "Talkno Jutsu", he uses it to just change multiple people's core beliefs in a single monologue

The fillers that dip into horror are the absolute best. This arc and the Star Village arc are two of my favorites.

In the first episodes where Naruto met Yakumo ( the girl) the thunder cloud materialised only when Naruto witness the difference between what she was painting and reality ( that is when he was inside the Genjutsu )
So basically she stll need to trap someone inside her illusion to have any effect ( it's a cool drew back )
“Genjustsu of that level don’t work on him”
I feel like Kurenai was a wasted character, she should have been a member of the Chinoike clan who left her village and didn't unlock her full powerset. I always wondered why her eyes were red outside of the Uchidas. The Chinoikes should have been a bigger deal, they could have just made the Chinoikes and Kuramas the same clan instead that keep popping up as a threat.

Most part 1 filer is canon
So.. if Naruto finds and seals a member of Kurama clan inside of himself he would still have Kurama powers.. just not the OG ones :D
@@Just_B0red I don't think you can casually seal people in Naruto and gain their powers, if it would be so simple Orochimaru wouldn't need to change that many "containers"
@@Just_B0red lol no. The kurama clan and the kaguya clan aka kimimarus clan are clans that happen to have names like Chakra power houses can't be a coincidence. At least not kimimarus clan
I wonder if this "Ito" is actually a being from a different dimension that gives these people power, like how the Death Reaper is a being from another dimension or how that memory-eating demon was also a being from another dimension. Now that dimension travelling in naruto has been confirmed, it does seem plausible, otherwise such godly abilities are way too powerful to just pop out of nowhere in a human.
What if ito was Sakura’s angry side in part 1…….just saying
It's Ido but yes that makes sense like something the comes from the mind dimension and the Kekkei Genkai harnesses the power of that dimension something like "The Dark" in the game grim quest
I hope the writer gives Sarada more opportunities to use genjutsu
I was really impressed when I watched the arc. Genjutsu that makes itself real? Heavy stuff. I never made the connection between it and Creation of all Things because I don’t think it is the same effect.
Technically speaking, I don’t think we ever saw her use the genjutsu to create anything other than an illusion, or to destroy something. Creation of all Things does just that, create all things. The ability to destroy isn’t technically a part of it. So perhaps the ability to turn your genjutsu into a destructive force is a separate ability that doesn’t require Otsutsuki chakra, but is equivalent and opposite to Creation of all Things
Well, she did 'create' the lightening that struck Hiruzen's office, the destruction of the office was a byproduct of the creation.
I dont remember this arc at all
This awakened some old memories in me. I dont think Ive thought about this since those episodes came out. Brings me back to middle school lol
Never forget that Kurenai tried to put genjutsu god Itachi under a… wait for it… genjutsu
Genjutsu is literally the most effective and powerful way to fight. Itachi proves this in every single one of his fights and remain untouched and undefeated.
I think the author didn't insist in Genjutsu because it was too OP, like, he had to give Itachi an unknown disease because he couldn't find a plausible way for him to be defeated.
@@danielclv97 well yeah itachi was by far the best user with the sharingan. “Try all the jutsu you wish, my eyes can see through all of them” 🐐
I am surprised that I called the clan before I clicked on the video. The Kurama clan is one of my top 10 favorite clans in all of Naruto (Boruto included).
You can only break out of Yakumo's genjutsu if you are unconscious or dead. The only beings not affected are literal bugs of the aburame clan
And if you're a bug well there's no point while being unconscious she can just stab you
I love your description of the snack boxes. Idk which i want to do... But as someone who does bonsai (45-50 tree and greenhouse) at times I wish I understood Japanese to read some of the books(not just the translated ones bc its not a even translation) as well as some of the cut pastes and other things that I use.
Lol I had a conversation years ago in college about this from a good friend who’s not here anymore. I smiled when I heard this on your vid as I remember him taking this stance on the Kurama clan being broken all those years ago.
Oh your friend died so early but I hope that he or she have seen the end of Naruto...
@@acpeji unfortunately no, he passed while on the 5 Kage Summit arc in the manga. Would’ve loved to hear his thoughts on the whole aliens thing though lol
@@clouddavis Damn life is too short... He didn't see the ending of Naruto... I hope I live long enough so I can watch anime with my kids in the future lol...
Here is a potential "What If" topic. "What if Naruto realized the benefits of the Shadow Clone/Multi Shadow Clone Jutsu from the beginning?"
Love the channel
You are literally so BASED, in all your videos are the things you talked are stuff that i readed from Wikis and other sources! You are incredible, finally someone in the TH-cam Community is actually speaking FACTS.
Your point of view is soooo good, hoping to see more!
I always knew how strong she was, and got rather disappointed when she was forgotten so easily
The thing about fillers it's that they don't explore all the possibilities. Maybe that genjutsu have limitations, like, she can't directly affect living things with that jutsu (similar to how Ishiki's abilities to make things smaller can't be used on living things); or that it expands way more chakra then materializing a lighting (thus she tried to erase Kurenai for half an episode, slowly, instead of killing her). And, yes, it's filler, they can basically put one-punch-man in a filler and then, that would be the "strongest person in Narutoverse".
I'm not sure about being the strongest genjutsu user with what we saw either, like, Itachi killed Izumi by putting her in a tsukuyomi for 80 years, where she lived her whole life with Itachi, had kids and then died peacefully. And, he consumed around half his chakra for this, meaning that he can potentially put people in 160 years worth of Tsukuyomi with only one charge. If he can damage them as much as he did with Kakashi in 48 hours, that would be enough to kill almost 30 000 people! (also, after learning about Itachi, it's clear he never intended to kill Kakashi, who is an important pillow in Konohagakure).
And, don't forget that Izanagi rewrites the whole universe, in both space and time, even if it's for a couple of minutes, and have limitations, I think it still qualifies as the strongest genjutsu there can be!
And regarding Kotoamatsukami, it is known that Sharingan abilities used by their original owner, used with both eye-pair, are stronger, so I have the impression that the Kotoamatsukami casted by Shisui Uchiha would be much stronger then the one used by Danzo, and possibly impossible to break, by simply physically rewiring the brain of the target. Why else would he try to use the ability on the chef of the Uchiha Clan, who is an Uchiha at a Kage-level with Mongekyo Sharingan awoken, surrounded by a ton of Uchihas who could check his chakra and brake him free of the genjutsu?
Oh, and let's not forget about Izanami, if Izanagi can change the destiny of the user, Izanami can DECIDE the destiny of it's target. And the target can either be trapped forever in the loop (oh, well, until they die); or, can "accept their destiny", which basically is not much different then Kotoamatsukami (but can be used by any Uchiha in exchange for one eye).
Yeah, I'm not saying that I'm happy they overloaded the Uchiha clan with God-like genjutsu and ninjutsu, in my opinion the first series was superior in keeping most clans relevant with their unique abilities. In Shippuden was all about Uchiha and Senju, making the whole Naruto-verse look much, much, smaller. Like, the whole world basically became Konoha, and the whole Konoha basically became Uchiha and Senju.
I remember this. She decimated the village in ONE LITERAL STROKE of her brush..
I've always considered genjutsu the strongest jutsu in the Naruto-verse, I didn't realize that was such a controversial take, lol
But yeah, I'm pretty sure the reason why it didn't get used more was because it's kinda hard to illustrate
Also because it would be kinda OP. What's that, you don't have perfect chakra control? Boom, genjutsu. Fight over.
@@danielcarr1297 Very true
also im pretty sure it'd be hard an annoying to illustrate
having the person under a genjutsu fight on a disturbing lcd trip from their perspective.
i would say that genjutsu wasn't really underused in shippuden. i mean madaras goal in the 4th great ninja war was to launch an insane genjutsu
I was gunna say the same thing. Saske and Itachis fight, saske vs deidera, saske vs danzo (a lot of saske lol) obito and kakashi using kamui, the inffinite sukuyomi, saske and itachi vs kabuto... There was A LOT of genjutsu it just became less relevant because the characters were so strong most genjustu wouldnt work in them
Man, I am surprised Orochimaru hasn't hijacked her body. 😂😂🤣🤣
I always loved Genjutsu. I have this thing i do where i create a character for every anime i really love, back story, abilities, appearence etc etc, i digress. But My character for Naruto used a scent based genjutsu paired with the ability to make his genjutsu abilities "come to life" or be made real using a special type of pure white chakra specific to his clan, and is a kekkei tota. I know, i'm a nerd and a weeb and have too much time on my hands. But its a fun little exercise i do. See how in depth i can create this character from the ground up and insert "him" or in some cases "her" into whatever anime im watching at the time.
I'm the exact same type of person I also do that in Darwin's Game anime I made a character that has "Yoshio Kobayashi's" power as his sigil
Can you do a video called All Hand Signs Explained. Where you explain all of them, and what they do, what they look like, why do you need hand signs to make jutsu and all that stuff.
Shisui’s Koto is the only plot hole that keeps me up at night. He was only 14-16 years old when he died. That would mean he’d have to awaken his MS at 4-6 years old to test out the 10 year thing.
But Ao was able to decipher that Hanzo was under Shisui’s genjutsu due to fighting against him in the 3rd Great Ninja War. This would mean that Shisui had used Koto in the War. But he also planned to use Koto on Fugaku, which would’ve been less than 10 years. My brain always hurts over this.
My understanding is that the ten year cool down is for ppl who aren’t Shisui it don’t have Hashirama cells.
Like how Kakashi can’t use the sharigan to its fullest because he’s not a Uchiha (same with Ao’s Byakugan)
For shishui the cooldown for koto is only 1 day. For others using his eyes they need hashirama cells to get that 1 day cooldown. Or else it'll be 10 years.
@@yuugenr7549 what if shisui had hashirama cells
@@Turbopro27 then he can use his mangekyou withou going blind
I’m pretty sure the whole 10 year thing doesn’t apply to Shisui. Danzo isn’t an Uchiha, and the Sharingan is natural to Shisui, snd Shisui pros it has a bigger chakra reserve than Danzo. Shisui likely can use Kotoamatsukami in a much shorter cooldown time since it’s natural for him. Also Shisui using genjutsu on Hanzo couldve just been a normal genjutsu and not Kotoamatsukami.
I remember about this episode and this is way they said Sui was the only person to stop Sasuke after he He bled ink out his eyes and crazy how she shaped reality and can kill you if something happens in the genjutsu
Madara can do this with his mangekyou, it wasn’t canon it was just in the anime but still it’s the only insight to his abilities, he records a moment, rewinds time, and changes what happened
Rage can make a person strong because when you're angry you do not think at all but only one thing is on your mind destroy kill
Someone can fall under Genjutsu via one of the 5 senses. Has there been any occurrence where smell and taste was used?
We've seen it done visually (infinite tsukuyomi), auditory (toads), and through touch (Chinoike clan).
You mean, only smell and only taste? Tsukuyomi (and, of course, Mugen Tsukuyomi) traps ALL senses a person have (which on top on the classic 5, you can add proprioception, pain, equilibrioception). For example, Itachi gave Izumi a whole 80 years life with genjutsu, obvious trapping all her senses.
@@danielclv97 Activated only by one. Like Tsukuyomi usually traps a person via sight first (even if someone doesn't look at Itachi in the eyes they still end up in a genjutsu).
Jiraiya's toads' genjutsu activated when Pain heard it. And the Chinoike clan use sight and touch to activate their genjutsu.
Have there been occurrences that genjutsu is activated through taste or smell?
Would love to hear your best squad for taking down Otsosuki with currently alive characters.
Mine is:
Naruto (obvious reasons)
Sasuke (^same but give this man an arm and Shin's Mongekyo for space time ninjutsu)
Orochimaru (his instant healing and jutsu mastery)
Kabuto (sage mode and healing)
Jugo (could take hits from A and live and can heal others and he innately uses sage chakra, granted he is nerfed big time in Boruto)
Killer B (if not nerfed in Boruto would be strong and fast enough to help)
Gara (can seal and has decent defense, would be a good back up)
Toneri (if they can unseal him that is)
I know Orochimaru and Kabuto could also use Edo Tensei but I don't see them actually doing that.
Out of all these characters and sakura isn’t on the list despite being the best healer and being capable of dying 100+ times 😔
@@starshooter2470 so Naruto, Orochimaru, Kabuto, Killer B, Tonerie, and Jugo don't need to be healed that much unless it's lethal damage which Sakura couldn't stop anyways. Sasuke and Gara could use it, if their defenses get broken through, but Kabuto and Jugo (and maybe Orochimaru) are there and can heal better as they can replace entier organs/limbs if they are lost as Sakura could only repair damage done but not completely replace stuff. Plus they are better fighters and faster (again Jugo got nerfed in Boruto so maybe not). I just didn't find it necessary to add her.
Maybe I should have included an Aburame clan member as the bugs couldn't be shrunk by a dojutsu likes Ishiki's so they could be helpful there.
Nice to see the Kurama clan getting some recognition, if I had to pick a clan from Konoha I would have picked them for their genjutsu. And I actually remember them from before this video.
And not all clans have kekei genkai per se, some have just developed hidden ninjutsu, like the Ino-Shika-Cho clans and the Inuzuka.
He's probably going to mention Itachi somewhere in this video, calling it.
5 min in hahaha
@@ninjason57 Jesus and I'm not even surprised.
Finally. I mentioned this clan ages ago as the strongest genjutsu users, but I never thought Yakumo would get mentioned. I'm glad she's finally getting some shine. Could u imagine what would have happened if she became a Akatsuki member.
I am actually glad someone else remembers this filler because I always talk about it but no one remembers what I’m talking about. Thank You!
Imagine if Yakimo was a cannon character and was friends with the Konoha 13 then married Rock Lee, the abilities on Metal Lee would be massively insane. one of the worlds's greatest Taijutsu masters mixed with the world's most talented (non ocular) Genjutsu. If Metal couldn't get close enough to you to he could make it happen with his genjutsu. each ability compensating for the other's weaknesses
but let's be glad that didn't happen because the whole being possessed by your own Id would not help with Metal's stage fright and anxiety
It depends if metal really wants to be able to do things without stage fright the id is basically your desire if he desires to be confident then his Ido should be a confident one
Genjutsu & Eight Gates would complement Tsunade and Sakura's combat style. You need perfect chakra control for Medical Ninjutsu, Chakra Enhanced Strength (CES), and Genjutsu. Imagine Tsunade or Sakura using A & S class Genjustu such as Bringer of Darkness or Kurenai's Binging Tree Genjustu along with Eight Gates enhanced Chakra Scalpels or CES punches! They would literally be God of Shinobi level!
I disagree they don't need 8 gates
Just give the explosion release or boil release
@@JayDeezy94 nah.. tsunade and Sakura are fine the way they are u gotta remember 5sunade and Sakura don't fight anymore Sakura is now in charge at the leaf hospital she has no use for either 4 styles/releases
@@bonniecarr1300 she can still go on missions like in Sarada Gaiden who heads the sensory part of

I’ve been sitting at my job since 6am waiting for the notification that you posted a video! Thank you man everything you teach me I go home and teach my kids they love your videos too!
Really cool video but I would use timestamps
Also I have a question about the Tsukuyomi could you use it as a training method so you get „trapped“ in it and can train 72hrs in one sec?
Your videos are really great I hope you keep making them
Can you talk about Mount Myoboku and the other places we’re sage art is taught
Yo, NCHammer23, I'm really digging the neuro bass remixes of Naruto songs in your intros (and sometimes outros?). I'd love it if you made a video about all the songs and artists you have and use for your videos since I'm a fan of that genre. I just haven't listened to it as much since it's not as popular these days but still really enjoy it
What if shisui had the ems,the 10 year break between uses wouldn't apply right? And what if itachi put shisui's eye in his left eye ems and limitless tsykuyomi/kotoamatsukami right?
Can we get a video on how insanely different genjutsu is depending on who uses it? Seen too many people try to equate regular genjutsus to MS like kotoamatsukami
How they work, how to beat them, does the target need chakra, etc...
Yo Nick can you make a video about Han the 5 tails jinchuriki. Like I have been searching alot but can’t find anything about him anywhere. That’s really unfortunate bc he looks like a very interesting character.
yeah i wish there was a filler arc about him
What if an uchiha and a kurama clan member made the child with the Ido, and used Kotoamatsukami on Ido to rewrite it to obey the user?
That would depend on if those genjutsu work on the Ido, but if it does, then you could theoretically control Ido and have creation of all things ability
So basically this clan every couple of generations produces someone that is the izanagi
I thought that filler arc was inspired by gym leader Sabrina's story from Pokemon.
It was very similar.
I liked that arc and had some thoughts about it which align with what you think about it. I believe she could 1v1 juubidara if that was her show now XD🤣🤣
This is off topic from the video but do you think you could do a demon slayer what if? 2 ideas what if Rengoku surived and what if rengoku choose to turn into a demon.
lol i actually thaught everyone forgot about her

i love ur videos man ive seen soooooooo many of them i listen for hours straight
That's a good point! I forgot that episode! Thanks for sharing
You are right, I don’t remember that clan at all but what I do remember is that demon face scared the hell out of me.
I literally bing watched you for like a week. New subscriber. Was wondering if you can explain the arc that I involved the star village. The ones that used pink energy to create light conjures or whatever.
This whole theory is the definition of a no limits fallacy but entertaining none the less
The entirety of naruto had super plot armor since the moment madara was reanimated, he could spam boulders, spam susanoo, spam his mangekyou abilities, spam his rinnegan abilities, so basically shoot almighty push like a machine gun, he could coat the 1000 hand wood statue in susanoo, he could straight up just almighty pull everyone to one spot and then cut them with his susanoo, he had uchiha flames, he was so goddamn busted as a reanimation, he already did stab sasuke and could’ve killed him, actually sasuke did die but got revived cause plot armor, madara dodged the fastest shinobi(s) in history and somehow some way black zetsu manages to back stab madara six paths two rinnegan with 4 limbo clones, imagine if madara got everyone’s chakra from infinite tsukuyomi then kills both naruto and sasuke, hell they might both be under genjutsu since the moment they actually died and boruto is a genjutsu
"Kakazo" 🤣🤣🤣
thank you so much, from when the episode that introduces the Kurama clan if they mix with the Hyuga clan in a ying, yang also a affinity of ying yang release, that had a seal to control edo that person could create the reality
Madara summons meteor
Genjustu paint away.
Madara- " What about the second one?"
*Paints away again* lol.
Nick and Tokyo Treat have now made an unbreakable bond.
Seeing this video made me realize how disappointed I am that Sakura didn't become the genjutsu master that kishimoto intended.
same here what a wasted opportunity for her to Do a lot more than in the show plus him, not Giving female characters in Naruto, in general, more screen time to show what they can do
Let's be honest If she did though She would have trivialized pretty much every opponent in Naruto that didn't have a sharingan/Rinnegan
I'm more upset that there were a team that had a genjutsu specialist as a teacher and none of them, not even the teacher had any serious skills with genjutsu.
@@athenawolf4467 They had her in charge of the tracking specialist team for some reason. Kakashi should have been in charge of Team 8 as he does have decent tracking skills (via his summons) and his Sharingan would have been a bit useful in helping Hinata. Kurenai being a genjutsu user would have been very useful in turning Sakura into one and making Sasuke into an elite one with his Sharingan.
Goes to show that the 3rd Hokage may have been an elite ninja, but his management and administrative skills were sorely lacking.
@@athenawolf4467 agreed, that was stupid
I wish Kurenai had a better showing of Genjutsu in Naruto
I learn everything I need to know here ❤️
The theme of the war arc, was fighting to stop putting the world in an eternal genjustu.

"Sakuraco always gives you kitchenware.

That filter was terrifying based on the power that little girl had.
I wish they revive this clan in Boruto but instead of reviving teach it to inojin and also have him fully master mind transfer he would literally be broken asf
I have question Mr.Nick is the Fūma clan(not land of sound one)is really distantly related of the Uchiha Clan?🤔
can you do a video on haku and his clan and kekki genki
I remember that filler. ..She was the Death Note chick.
And you're right with the "blah blah blah" parts, ish was kinda longer than needed lol
in my opinion ,One of the strongest ginjutsues in Naruto is used by Naruto "Talkno Jutsu", he uses it to just change multiple people's core beliefs in a single monologue
I went and rewatched it your the goat bro
This was one of my favorite filler arcs. It was so cool!
I actually enjoyed this arc a lot
Love the video and keep up the great work
Could you do a series of videos that could possibly tie movie content into the history of naruto? Examples like the stone of gelel, cresent moon island and how those might have had direct references or theorize connections to otsutsuki. Just an idea!
I just did my research on this clan the other day this man is spot on im obsessed with him
yooooo finnaly ive been reccomending it for weeks
Genjutsu can't work on Kisame because Samehada can knock him out of it.
great video. Did they send you the script to read for the sponsor?
The ad was so funny to me, he ate a cracker and said THIS IS DELICIOUS the taste of butter is so immaculate
Ostsuitsuki clan is typing….
I actually remembered that episode and was so interested in it and the possibilities.
Thanks for filling in these back stories, we never even knew 🍻
It’s me lol, you have all been under my genjutsu this entire time
This was my second-favorite filler arc as a kid! Second only to the one with Hinata and the wasps.
