What is Izanagi really?

[VongolaX]

Izanagi was said to use yin energy and yang energy. Yin is to create the illusion and yang energy is to bring that image to life.

It's the most powerful genjustu that you can cast on yourself, bringing your imaginations right in front of you.

But according to Tobi, the incomplete version of izanagi is to bring yourself back to life:

So what is the full scope of this justu?

The power to create using your illusion:

Please note: The manga didn't state a time frame with the full power and the incomplete version.

im guessing the incomplete version is not being able to have a delayed effect on your izanagi like Madara had

Six Path Chibaku Tensei was one example of full power Izanagi(The complete creation of celestial body aka moon).

Lower level Izanagi just able to bring you back from dead at the moment.

Thats mean to achieve highest level of Izanagi power you need full ingrediants(Six Path chakra)

Madara had a transcript seal.

Just like how Itachi put amatersu in 3 tomoe Sasuke's left eye, Madara had an unkown outside source put izanagi in his left eye.

That means it requires preparation, he cannot activate it whenever he wants, and he only gets one chance to set the justu at the exact right time (meaning if he set the izanagi to activate during the fight with hashirama, he won't come back after he gets killed).

So a seal izanagi is even worse than an incomplete izanagi.

I like where your idea is coming from, and it seems very plausible.

But the Yin energy is what you create from your mind, while the yang is what gives it a conscious.

Meaning they would have to cast an illusion of rocks and give it a life for it to move independently (like mokuton to seal) to seal the target on its own.

 

[VongolaX]

well for starters, its a ninjutsu because it begets reality

after that its just an in-universe paradox :|

And?

Logically, you know where the line is drawn.

Yeah something like that.
