... Wow... I never thought about it like that, I've always been taught that way so i thought that is how it should be but i guess not. You really opened my eyes to teaching, I'll make sure to implement this ideology when i finally become a sensei... Deep down i really feel a big relief... personally i hate going through these simple questions, the needless stuff of teaching the basics.. especially with a teacher who is relatively inactive.
Anyways, I really don't have any questions regarding the techniques themselves as all them are relatively well described as far as I've read. I, however have a question regarding the interactions with the element itself, does every technique use 'black steel'? If not whats the difference between basic steel and black? Is there more steel variants i can use? Also i'd like to know how steel interacts with every basic 5 elements individually, that and the other techniques like taijutsu and ninjutsu and kenjutsu.
And maybe after this teaching session we could do a practice battle with the element?
Never heard of black steel. Im sure its for cosmetics.. Also Any other forms of steel? I seen customs of molten steel and steel shards.. Dont know if you can make those though...
Steel Vs. Earth; Imagine shooting a bullet through the wall. A wall isnt hard enough to withstand the force and hardness of steel.
Steel Vs. Water; Same application as earth.
Steel Vs. Lightning; Same Application as earth.. But in some cases (Custom wise) You can use the fact that steel conducts electricity.. Thats pretty diverse
Steel Vs. Wind; Uhhh.. Lol... Thats a no go.. Wind isnt (or shouldnt) be strong enough to push it back.. Now the slicing portion is another story
Steel vs. Fire; Ehh.... I see it as pretty mutual.. If fire is hot enough, it can melt it imo.. but if its not hot enough it just pierces through the fire (or withstand it)
Steel is a very good component for taijutsu. Since Taijutsu requires hand to hand.. your body is coated in steel, its perfect for each other. Steel against kenjutsu is very good as well.. Nobody is cutting you when your body is made of steel.. I actually advise you to black tai and ken with body steel jutsus.. ur gonna gonna cause their weapon to break or hurt them.. U_U .. Genjutsu... yeah no need to speak on that
