Hey, look, another RP Suggestion! Who would have thought?
This is a bit of a farfetched idea at best, and I realize that, but I still feel like I should suggest it.
I've seen a lot of people lately stating that there is a larger delay between using jutsu of different chakra natures compared to using two jutsu of the same nature, one right after the other (excluding handseals and the such).
However...well, this is wrong, and it's become a prominent presence in the RP, at least for what I've seen. People seem to be under the assumption that when they use an elemental jutsu, all of their chakra turns into that nature, thus their idea that there is a delay when using another nature, as they'd have to transform their chakra into that nature.
But, in actuality, you're only turning a set quantity of chakra into that nature: the basis of chakra control. Each jutsu needs a certain amount of chakra - you're going to change the "color" of that glass of water, not the entire reservoir, if I may make such a comparison. We've seen people use different elemental attacks in quick succession, such as Kakashi, which supports the "reservoir" example, and not the notion that there is a delay while you transform your chakra.
I guess what I'm saying is, I'm suggesting some kind of Chakra Philosophy class or training, so that things like this become less prominent. If people are better educated about the way things actually are, it could prevent a lot of arguments, make battles flow better, and may smooth a couple of other problems out.
Like I said, I know it's kind of a farfetched idea. Most people are anxious to learn the elements as is, so I doubt they're going to want to take a Philosophy class. But maybe it could be explained to people before they ever even learn their first element, in the form of a stickyed thread, or just a lesson from a Sensei.
Thoughts?
Oh, and credit to my buddy Gin-San, who was discussing this with me.
