The dragon swoops down from the sky and onto the battlefield. Not only is it capable of shooting a spiral rain spear from any point on its body once per post, but it is capable of directing a small rainstorm from its body.

(Rasen Yari no Kirinonai Kouu) - Endless Rain of the Spiral Spears

Chakra cost: 40
Damage Points: 80

They also move in a corkscrew pattern that can be slightly manipulated. By widening or sharpening the turns, you can change where the spear will hit mid-technique.

The chakra that pulled down the clouds keeps them moving at high speeds so that neither the user nor enemy can escape. This jutsu in effect doubles the damage done by rain jutsu attacks and makes them more difficult to dodge.

[Jokey]

Alright then, I want you to answer the following things in your own words, try to state everything you know about what I will write underneath.

• What is Rain?
• What are its weaknesses/strengths
• Known users that specialize in Rain from the anime/manga.
• What element do you get if you combine it with one of the five basic elements?

 

[Kung Fro]

Rain is a element that derives it's self from the sky. The user must create rain or have it previously raining on the terrain.

Rain is weak to Earth as it can absorb it like normal water; it is also weak to Wind as it can blow it away.

Rain is strong against Fire as it can douse the flames. Can be dangerous to use lightning techniques while Rain is being used.

I believe Nagato is the only known Rain user.

Rain is composed of Wind and Water.

 

[Jokey]

I will see this one trough, but if we proceed our training, then you must and will write/describe much more than what you wrote above or you should have to find another sensei, unfortunately.

Alright then, my training will go as following;

• Brief description of how you perform the technique;
  
• How can the technique be used in battle (combos with other moves/skils, creative use, etc);
  
• Limitations of the technique;
  
• How to counter the technique;

 

[Kung Fro]

Alright, ready to continue.

Sorry, I actually researched this but I really don't know anything about Rain

 

[Jokey]

You must be registered for see links

• First of all, if you don't understand something or have any other questions please ask them either here or via vm and I'll try to answer them as good as I can
• Secondly, try to reply in your own words, thus not simply copy me nor anyone else. It does not matter if you get something wrong.
• Thirdly, if you do not reply within one month, I will drop your training without further notice.
• Fourthly, please try to use proper English. It is very annoying for both you and me if I do not understand what you say and I tell you to redo the jutsu over and over again until I understand you xd

 

[Kung Fro]

Alright, understood. And I always try to go off my own knowledge in training instead of googling

 

[Jokey]

Alright, understood. And I always try to go off my own knowledge in training instead of googling

Google > read > understand > remind > and then explain in your own words.

As I continue with my instructions, I quickly start performing the required handseals to make it rain.

Now continue the following;

(Ame Tama no Jutsu) - Rain Bullet Technique

Spoiler

Rank: D
Type: Attack
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 10
Damage Points: 20
Description: By focusing chakra into the user's hand they are able to gather rain drops towards their palms, the rain is molded together by chakra and forged into a high pressured orb. Once done the orb will shoot away from the users hand and the user will be knocked back. If it hits the enemy the enemy will be sent away flying or unbalanced.

[list][*]Brief description of how you perform the technique;

[*]How can the technique be used in battle (combos with other moves/skils, creative use, etc);

[*]Limitations of the technique;

[*]How to counter the technique;[/list]

 

[Kung Fro]

Performance
I start channeling ameton into my palm and draw the falling rain into my hand. As the rain continues to buildup into my hand, I shape manipulate it into an orb. This is a highly pressurized orb and I hold up the hand with the orb, using my other hand to support my wrist. I then release all the raindrops, formed into a powerful orb at my target. This causes me to get knocked back.

I think this is a technique that should mainly be used as a diversion or in coordination with another rain technique that attack aerially. Since it is a very basic frontal attack, it is not hard to dodge or counter.

This is a very basic technique that I will likely never use. It is a slow technique to start off with, having to draw in the rain and then release it. And on top of that, it is very basic and easy to counter. To add on to these reasons, the technique knocks you back but does not even carry a lethal punch with it.

To counter this technique, almost any of the D Rank wind techniques would suffice, even carrying on to the enemy due to the weaknesses correlating between Rain and Wind

 

[Jokey]

This technique can even be countered by a C-Ranked Taijutsu technique, quite the easy one.

Now as we continue, give this one a try;

(Secchakuzai no Kouu) - Rain of Glue
Rank: C
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra cost: 15
Damage Points: N/A
Description: When user makes it rain and then changes the compounds of the water(materials in the air).Then makes the rain sticky which binds the opponent in place for 2 turns.this jutsu lasts for 2 turns.

It's very vague, but it can be described how to perform it. Try to get as much information as you can out of this technique and if you got any questions then just ask.

[list][*]Brief description of how you perform the technique;

[*]How can the technique be used in battle (combos with other moves/skils, creative use, etc);

[*]Limitations of the technique;

[*]How to counter the technique;[/list]

 

[Kung Fro]

Standing on the battlefield, I make it rain in order to perform the technique. I send my chakra into the air and change the composition of the falling rain. I make the rain take up a sticky composition which holds you in place for two turns.

This is a technique intended to create an offensive opening. If your opponent is stuck to the ground for two turns, it is very difficult to not kill them.

Uhhh not a lot of 'limitations' for this technique really other than the 'binds for 2 turns, lasts for 2 turns'

I'd have to counter this with wind and blow the rain away so it doesn't make contact

 

[Jokey]

I'd like you to link me one of your recent fights please, just to chekc how you respond to your opponent during fights because you actually lack a little detail, but we can always work on that. Other than that, it says it would stick your opponent for two turns, but believe me, if your opponent get's stuck successfully, it would be easy to get out. How would you escape from this technique if it would glue you?

Moving on;

(Touei Ame Bushin) - Reflection Rain Clone
Rank: C
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 15
Damage Points: N/A
Description: This technique creates a reflection of the user, this clone is unable to touch physical objects or cause harm. Every move that the user makes the clone mimics at the same time. The reflection clone is destroyed after one hit, this is a tactical technique.

i use my ameton chakra and create an identical clone next to me. although it is intangible, the clone mimics all my actions. i run left and right wwhile my clone does the same

this is a technique to be used as a distraction. with this tech, you want your opponents attention to be diverted to the clone

this clone cannot really do anything , its intangible so it's meant to solely distract

you counter this by deducing the clone cant do shit so you attack it and the opponent with one technique

sorry for poor quality, i only have 1 hand fr the nrext 6-8 weeks

Alright then. Good enough. And sorry to hear about your hand, get well soon!

(Amegakure No Jutsu) - Hidden Rain Technique
Rank: C
Type: Supplementary
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 15
Damage Points: N/A
Description: A jutsu that can only be used in rain to conceal oneself, this jutsu is considered a dynamic form of henge. After performing a row of hand-seals, the user seems to disappear. In truth, they have merely assumed a form that mimics rain. Fast movements and physical contact with others may reveal the user

You know the drill. Please tell me along with the usual method of teaching how you would use this in a battle, or, why you will use it, thereby I mean in what circumstances.

 

[Kung Fro]

I form a weave of seals and then I channel chakra all throughout my body. As the rain is falling I conceal my body to hide within it. I can move freely while being hidden from your sight.

This is a pretty good technique for evasion purposes. I think if you used this techique, it would allow you to sneak up on your opponent and gain the upper-hand.

The limitation is you have to stay composed while hidden; the fast movements or attempting to attack could be a giveaway to your true location

I would counter this by using a radius technique to cover all angles, completely protecting myself.

Could doujutsu/sensors pick you up?

 

[Jokey]

Yes, they could. Moving on;

(Hitoshirenu Ame Sai) - Hidden Rain Slash
Rank: C
Type: Attack
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra cost: 15
Damage Points: 30
Description: The user manipulates their chakra to condense a single raindrop into a more solid form. The raindrop becomes as sharp as a blade. The disadvantage to this jutsu is that the raindrop falls in a straight line.

You know the drill. Despite the fact of your weakened hand, put just a little more effort in the technique's please.

 

[Kung Fro]

As the rain continues to fall, I decide to take a different approach on it now. Instead of using it for supplementary purposes, I now decide to take the offensive. Sending my ameton chakra into the air, I shape manipulate the rain and cause it to condense on itself. The rain forms into a single solid drop and falls in a straight line, impaling your head.

This is a GREAT sneak attack technique. If used correctly, this technique can be fatal very often as it's hard to counter without metagaming. I would use this without giving any sign of offensive actions.

The limitation is described in the technique, it's only a single drop and it falls in a straight line.

Honestly I have no clue how I'd counter this and this will be my question >.> What are a few ways to counter?

 

[Jokey]

Doujutsu, Sensors and Rain masters would notice this quite easy. However, always, just keep in mind that you should never let your opponent succeed in using the Rain technique, especially, when your opponent has rain mastered. Alright, these sharp blades are as small as rain drops. So the pain of the rain drops will be as fatal as barbed wires and shrubs filled with their natural needles which are sharp also, albeit that the description says they're as sharp as blades. So the exact moment the first few try to attack you, respond. Counter attack, especially since the rain falls into a straight line. Another thing is that you should observe your surroundings, your opponent has to focus on this technique, and won't be doing a thing thus standing staring at you like nothing's happening, so you would probably notice something, that doesn't require any handseals. Quite the OP technique.. never thought about using it.

(Ame Kasui no jutsu) - Rain Spike Technique
Rank: C
Type: Attack
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra cost: 15
Damage Points: 30
Description: The user of this technique must place chakra into one or more raindrops. As the drops of rain hit the ground they create a small sized spike of water from puddles on the ground. For this technique to work there must be water on the ground and it must be raining.

Alright, keep up the good work. You're improving.

 

[Kung Fro]

I send my chakra into the falling rain in order to manipulate it. As the rain comes to an end, I manipulate the rain as it splashes upon the ground, creating a spike out of the splashing water that rises up to impale you.

This is another nice surprise technique. Albeit a bit easier to counter the technique as you will see the splash.

The limitation stays the same as it states in the restriction. This one is depending on the environment, you need it to be raining and to be standing on water/having a layer of water.

To counter, I'd definitely react to the splashing up instead of countering the falling rain,

Btw I'm Red O__o

Wth Afro? I totally forget about this? You could have simply told me ''Continue my rain'' because you asked me to start your training which means you never received any training in rain because of the fact that I have totally forgot about this. You should have just linked me before xD

Alright then, uhm. Well, the puddle will start moving or something like your signature. It'll move, make a weird sound and because of your opponent not doing anything will make him suspicious hence making you check your surroundings that you'll make sure not to get surprised by a technique.

(Ame no Yari) - Rain Spear
Rank: C
Type: Attack
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra cost: 15
Damage Points: 30
Description: By using chakra to condense a large amount of rainwater into one place, the user creates a spear of water in the clouds. The spear can at any time be called down to strike an opponent with only one hand-seal. The water will stay in the form of spear for a short amount of time (three posts). If the spear is not used by that time it will fall uselessly as rain. The only warning this technique gives is a second pause in the rain when the water is gathered and condensed.

Use the template please.
