the infinite darkness jutsu completely seals the vision of its victim who riddles in infinite darkness. meaning the sharingan users won't be able to use their eyes to break this genjutsu since their vision is sealed. In order to break it, they will have to find the caster of the jutsu using other means and hit him with a strong jutsu. In Hiruzen's case, he actually had to use the reaper death seal on Hashirama to break from it. Any sharingan/ ms techniques are useless against this gen jutsu technique for that same obvious reason.

The darkness jutsu is quite an op technique and its unique nature makes it one of the best counters against the Uchiha's. This may have helped the shodaime when he defeated Madara.

It's overrated. Any high level ninja can get out of it.

Weaknesses

- It is a short to mid range tech. So you can literally walk out of it

-It doesn't take out other senses like hearing, smell, touch etc

-It can be broken with contact to the user.

There could be an element of truth to this. It seems, however, that this is a short ranged justu, which would be ineffective if the opponent was a healthy distance away from the caster. Moreover it can still be countered by shinobi with sensing abilities. But it is likely to have made things slightly more difficult for Madara, can't deny that.

"This technique exerts an hallucinatory effect upon the eyesight, effectively blinding the opponent. No matter how skilled an opponent may be, they are forced to wait helpless in this world of darkness, as this technique allows the user to attack unseen. Although it negates sight, it does not stop the other senses."

Stop lying.

Sorry it didnt really bother Hiruzen to find any of them.
Hiruzen is as skilled as they come when it comes to basic ninja skills like tracking. Also Hashirama was kind of standing still in one spot back then cause he was an edo and Oro didn't order him to move around. But what if Hashirama creates a forest and conceals himself after using bringer of darkness. I don't think even someone as skilled as Madara would be able to track him down without his eyes and the sharingan.

Yeah... but that was because Hiruzen used his sense of smell to detect where they were. No known Uchiha can do that... so... yeah...
That wasnt sense of smell
That was pure perception

And Itachi has a counter for BOD which i like to call demonic illusion Heaven and earth change, i wouldnt be surprise if Itachi can do like Hiruzen

The Senju would be in his own jutsu

I think this techique didn't really bother him.
Madara who is a lot stronger than Tobi could detect perfect clones. In the end it all came to stamina/chakra.

Then I guess the manga had a translation error. I saw "sniff" as a sound effect. :shrug:

You can't sense unless you're a sensor.

:rofl: When was I lieing? Smart ass.

- Wiki proving it's a short range tech. Same place you got your info look again. :sy: Oro used a barrier to keep Hiruzen inside the tech.


- @ bold you said it urself. :sy:

- When Hiruzen touched Hashi the tech ended.

So please tell me again how I'm lieing. :rolleyes:

Are you serious? There is no darkness which is sealing the victims vision, this is just an visual illusion which let you see darkness; being in an illusion you never see the real caster. And since this bringer of darkness is nothing but an illusion, the Sharingan sees through it.





Shees Genjutsu is just the same thing but blinds you with light instead of darkness. He fooled Juugo but Sasuke saw through it immediately.

just rewatched that episode and it seemed that the technique ended when the reaper's arm went through the dark barrier NOT when Hiruzen touched Hashirama, as a matter of fact he was struggling trying to grab him properly.

You said that the enemy can just walk out of it. :sy: You can't just walk out of that genjutsu.

BOD Is more dangerous.. you can't break it unless you land a hit/touch on the caster.....

ofc there are many ninjas who can do that.... eg- kakashi has nin dogs and smell akin to them

inside the barrier everything had a range
mokuton got restricted to the boundaries of the barrier
and if i am not mistaken BOD spread to the entire barrier so that cant be taken as a proof that it is a short-mid range jutsu
