1. What is Hojojutsu/Nawajutsu?
2. From what anime did I get the idea to make this CFS from? (there is more than one place I got the idea from, but I dont much like the idea of Spiderman being an anime, the mental control portion coming from Doc Ock)
*Hint, BlazBlue is a game, not an anime, so the answer is not my namesake Hazama.*

1. Hojojutsu/Nawajutsu is a special style of close combat fighting that involves the usage of chains, ropes or cords. It has three uses as far as I can see.
Supplementary - Allowing one's self to bind/restrain a target in place, preventing escape.
Defensive - Using the Chains/Cords/Ropes (mainly chains) to create circular defenses by manipulating the extensions in a whirlwind-like manner.
Offensive - Using similar ways as the defensive ones as well as simply manipulating the cord/chain/rope to directly hit a target or manipulate it to grab a kunai/object to deal damage from far away.
Paulie from from One Piece or maybe Kurapika from Hunter x Hunter?

Correct. Paulie from One Piece is where I got the main idea from, but like I said above it was Doc Ock that I got the mental manipulation from that I knew would make this a great offensive and defensive tool. Another was Spawn. >_>
Mostly because I dont plan on having to use handseals for any of these techniques, it makes it a great counter agent. As I'm sure you have seen in my battles, there are plenty of different ways to use Hojojutsu/Nawajutsu simply by mental manipulation.
*Deflecting weaponry launched towards you.
*Unable to be injured by a weapon that lacks chakra as long as the chains are wrapped around your body (Beheading not included but that doenst mean you still can't deflect or grab the weapon used before it does so....beware of Arrow users, they will simply aim for your head/arms/feet/neck, as these are all of the exposed body parts that lack constant chain defense.
*Capable of sending kunai or holding swords and other weapons to attack your opponent while you maintain the free use of your hands.
*Grappling an opponent who's primary fighting styles are kenjutsu and taijutsu.
There are many other uses for the chains/cords/ropes as well that I simply haven't explored yet due to lack of battlefield conditions. Pretty much being able to swing from tree to tree in a forest without using your hands, Climbing a mountain, hanging from a structure, etc. All things capable of simply free thought. It makes it rather hard to come up with techniques when all you have to do is think about what you want to do and it just happens. lol.
What ways can you think of to use Hojojutsu in the Narutoverse?

Well you stated a lot of great and useful methods, some that I hadn't even thought of. Well. I wanted to originally create a custom fighting style involving snake ninjutsu. However it seems that is not allowed because it collides with snake ninjutsu. (Blake attempted to submit such CFS and it got declined.) So the next best thing for my snake specializing user would be chains. I would like to use the chains as an extension of my body similar to snakes, using the chains to both defend myself and strike my opponent as I go for close range attacks. Later down the line I might even create custom snake ninjutsus that are able to fluidly combine with the manipulations of the chains, creating a double layered defense in terms of ropey manipulation. The rest were already described by you.
Edit: I also have a scythe/fan CW which has a chain link attached to either end similar to Madara's Gunbai. This style would allow me to further enhance my usage of my CW by manipulating the chain linked to my weapons.

Now the first thing we must do for you is get you used to actually wearing the chains/ropes/cords. Movement for you won't be restricted in the slightest, as there is a special way of wrapping it around your body. But first, I need you to go behind the bushes and put on this skin tight body armor.
After that, I will perform the wrapping ceremony.
You must be registered for see images

OOC: Oh... my... god.....:ilu:
Erik grabs his teacher's outfit and goes behind the bushes as instructed. He then continues by taking off his regular clothes and puts on the tight, uncomfortable suit. He then walks back to his teacher and looks him at the eye with a bit of embarrassment.
I'm ready..

I assume you want Metal Chains also.
Oraan stands close to Cobra and mentally manipulates his chains to surround his body in a way that doesnt restrict any of his movements. At first they appear tight, so Oraan loosens them slightly, knowing that after Cobra gets the hang of having the added weight, he can adjust his chains more comfortably around his body.
Oraan then severs the links of his chains with his own chakra.
Now, I need you to overwhelm my chakra with your own. After doing so, run a good 10 miles to get used to the weight. The longer you run, the heavier they will get, but the more often you run the less you will feel it.

Erik begin to be wrapped by metal chains that his teacher manipulates passively. Upon hearing the instructions he begins to release a vast surge of chakra throughout his body. He attempts to manipulate his chakra over the chains in order to take control over them, washing away his teacher's chakra away. Once the control has vanished, Erik begins to run laps around the field, attempting to accustom himself to the weight of the chains. He continues to run until he is told to stop. As time passes, Erik's speeds begins to decrease as his body weakens and the chains weigh him down.

Tosses you a water bottle.
Ok, How try to move your chains simply by thinking. Take note that once you place your chakra into the chains, it contains your chakra throughout the entire time you use them. Then all you have to do is think about what you want to do, and the chains will do it.
Aiming or having something to direct the chains at something makes it easier for you to manipulate them until you can completely master it.
Right now, try to use your chains to grab one of the kunai from your belt.
Then afterwards, something I dont think you possibly thought about yet, Charge Nagashi (Actually post the technique) into your chains, and tell me what affect it would have if it hit an opponent.

Thinking quick on his feet as the water bottle is tossed, Erik quickly imbues the chains with his raw chakra. He then attempts to mentally command the chains by the manipulation of his chakra and utilizes one to grab a hold of the bottle by simply wrapping around it. Due to his inexperience with the manipulation of the chains, Erik completely crushes the water bottle as the chains grip it too hard. As the clone is made, Erik begins to get accustomed to his chain a little bit and simultaneously channels chakra throughout it, releasing an unfocused surge of lightning by performing the ox hand seal whilst manipulating the chain, aiming to bind the clone in place as he is physically paralyzed.
(Raiton: Chidori) - Lightning Release: One Thousand Birds
Rank: A
Type: Offense
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 30
Damage Points: 60
Description: The user must first perform the following sequence of hand seals Ox → Rabbit → Monkey → Dragon → Rat → Bird → Ox → Snake → Dog → Tiger → Monkey and they will then focus lightning chakra into their hand to create a lightning jutsu that is concentrated in the user's palm and thrusted toward the opponent at high speed. The lightning in the user's palm sounds like birds chirping, hence the name, and allows the user to perform high grade cutting damage or high penetration piercing thrusts.
Note: Someone who mastered lightning release can perform chidori with just the Ox hand seal.
Note: Uchiha Sasuke and Kakashi Hatake bios can use the technique without handseals

Sweet. I did that simply to point out that even though you are limited as an Iwa nin to currently Earth, other jutsu that allow you to channel chakra through metal is not restricted, its only Hojojutsu techniques that are restricted to the element.
Now, try to wrap the chains around this clones arms and tie it into a knot simply with your thoughts.

Same goes for wind right? There are some techniques that enhance weapons and tools.

As the second clone is created Erik commands his chains to unwrap the first clone and begin to twist around the new clone's body, focusing on his arms, pushing them behind his back as Erik causes the chains to tie a knot, successfully binding the clone in place with his arms behind his back, having them tightly pressed causing slight pain.
