Kaguya placed the people in her time in genjutsu right? And controlled them?


BUT
People always said you needed to have chakra to be put in a genjutsu.
This is not true because the people she controlled did NOT have chakra at the time.

Conclusion: you canonically do not have to have chakra to be placed under genjutsu.

The USER has too have chakra

Well yes, obviously.

I've seen people say it can only be used by inflicting someone else with it by attacking their chakra, but this is proof that that isn't the only way; the defender doesn't have to have chakra is my point.

You know, like dbz.

I doubt that since she wanted it all for herself so badly, that was her entire character...

We don't know when exactly she cast IT...

1. She may have cast IT before chakra had been spread around by her son yet..(Meaning genjutsu can be cast on people/ things without chakra)

Or 2. She may have casted IT after chakra had been spread around to everybody/thing (Meaning genjutsu must be cast on things with chakra)

As we have no idea when exactly she cast the jutsu over the whole world it is hard to jump to conclusions...We don't even know why she stopped IT..Lol.. That's all I know and last time a topic like this came up I was left confused for ages...So don't confuse me again!!! xD :nuts:

Well she used it to stop the war, which was before she was evil, but still means she used it.

She probably became consumed with power and her sons got sick of it and sealed her. Lol

Lel.. yeah! xD I guess you're right! xD I got sooo confused last time cause everyone had different opinions and they all had a point! Lol so I got really confused..huehuehuehue

People were saying that you don't need chakra cause cats were caught and they don't have chakra..
People were saying people always had chakra within them but Hagoromo taught them to use it..
People were saying they had chakra always cause otherwise how do you survive?- without chakra you die...
Some said you don't need chakra because they worshiped and feared her as she was the only one with chakra..
People said there was no chakra as the God tree was the first with chakra and Hagoromo and Hamura were the first born with chakra..

But yeah.. I think they had no chakra when she cast it..xD :sweat: But it's too confusing so I'm just gonna stay out of any argument! Lol

I think I can make some sense of this...


Kaguya stopped the wars by herself when everyone didn't have chakra. She had both her sons. When she first was revived she looked at Naruto and Sasuke and thought of Hagoromo and Hamura but then said "Indra and Asura". Meaning, she knew of Hagoromo's offspring which means that Hagoromo had already spread chakra at that time because he was preparing them to see who would be the successor of Ninshuu. Also, Hagoromo noted that she was once known as a goddess but then her power caused her to create conceit from it, and thus began to be known as the Rabbit Demon. That's most likely when she started casting the Genjutsu, since Hagoromo already knew about it.

That would give her an extremely shirt time to become known for her genjutsu.
Besides, she was stated to have ended the war with it.

no, it did not say she ended the war with it. it never said how she ended the war other than saying she gained the power from the fruit then she ended the wars. she could have used many things to achieve this like any of the many jutsu she had at her disposal. considering she knew indra and ashura, it must mean hogoromo had already spread chakra. which is why she and the tree turned into the juubi to try and get that chakra back.

Nope. Go re-read the chapters citing it. It had nothing to do with her Genjutsu use. I believe it was when Madara was describing the stone tablet. He said that she single-handedly stopped the war herself, nothing about Genjutsu. We only learned that IT was originally her jutsu because of Hagoromo, and that was over 30 chapters later.

Hagoromo spread ninshu NOT chakra right?
You are right about the war, I just checked that, but it's still completely reasonable to think she used genjutsu in the war, and there is no way rikudo spread chakra to every living person on earth, or anywhere close. (Assuming he actually spread it himself)

Chakra is hereditary, there was a time in her life she used genjutsu on people and it's outrageous to think that every single person at the time had chakra.

Translation: Sasuke can potentially solo people outside the Narutoverse with Solo Glance for those who use the argument, "they don't have chakra".

A nice observation, but things like this can be chalked up to Kishi's lack of planning. Kinda like she apparently used ET despite the fact the sage hadn't yet created to moon for her to cast the jutsu off of. So again, nice observation, but I doubt you are correct simply because its one of those things Kishi neglected in his hasty design and story of Kaguya.

Okay, stop being dense, this is absurd. Do you not read the manga?

Kurama noted that Hagoromo spread chakra himself as a means to connect through spiritual energy, aka Ninshu. How do you spread Ninshu (which is just the sect of chakra bearing people) without chakra?

And no, you can't cast Genjutsu on people who don't have chakra networks to manipulate.
