Sage Mode Explained

Sage Mode is a state where one is completely tuned in with nature. This state is achieved by drawing in Natural Energy into ones body, and blending it into your chakra. Doing this will create a new type of chakra known as "Senjutsu Chakra", which will be explained momentarily.

Mastering Sage Mode does have a few requirements relating to Natural Energy.

1. Only those with enormous chakra reserves can even dream to utilize Natural Energy.
2. One must have a very strong body to be able to handle Sage Mode
3. The user must be able to balance the Natural Energy with their Physical and Spiritual energy. Too little energy, and Sage Mode will fail, too much and you will turn into a statue.
4. One must main stationary while gathering Natural Energy.

Now, with that being said, let's get on to the advantages.

Senjutsu Chakra

In Sage Mode, all Ninjutsu and Genjutsu are infused with Senjutsu Chakra, essentially amplifying the power of the attacks. This is mainly due to the fact that there is a third form of energy powering the attack. Jiraiya noted that his Senpou: Chou Odama Rasengan had the destructive power to hollow out a mountain.


Natural Energy

All Sage Mode users are capable of utilizing the Natural Energy around them as a weapon.
Let's say that Jiraiya goes for a punch to the nose but the opponent moves their head to the left. Jiraiya would be able to still hit the enemy using Natural Energy.

Physical Capabilities
Users of Sage Mode have their body dramatically strengthened as a result of the Natural Energy.
Their bodies become more durable and stamina is increased as well.
Physical strength is also increased exponentially as seen here:

We can safely assume that rhino is at least 10 tons.

Speed and Reflexes also get a large boost as well

Naruto is able to shunshin so fast that Pain couldn't react even though they all have a visual link.

Sensing
Sage Mode users are one with Nature, they are able to sense chakra passively, but it does require some focus to do it accurately.

Curse Mark
A watered down version of Sage Mode created by Orochimaru.
Orochimaru studied Juugo's clan's ability to passively absorb natural energy and created this technique off of it.
It was originally created because Orochimaru's body wasn't able to handle Sage Mode.
The user gains slightly increased speed and strength and the ability to use Senjutsu.

Thanks ^.^

Nice thread. Can Uchiha also master Senjutsu?

Madara, Indra, and Sasuke definitely have the chakra levels to, but I doubt their bodies would be strong enough without Hashi's cells, which Madara and Sasuke already have.

 

[NarutoWA]

Nice work doing all this hardwork. btw each point was mentioned directly in the manga.

 

[Dantе]

Nice thread sir.

 

[SIR UZMAKIMADARA]

great thread ..Unable to rep you :|

 

[Sentinel of Light Style]

You forgot the part where it's similar to adding Mint-flavour to an Ice cream with Chocolate- and Vanilla-flavour. That's, like, the most important part.

 

[Gold Lightning]

Great thread. You should also explain the drawbacks too.

U_U How could I fail so hard

Great thread. You should also explain the drawbacks too.

Meh, probably later

sm is pretty cool. what about rsm? is it different? and why does naruto look like a frog?

Well, the SM Naruto is using pre-rikudou is specifically TSM(Toad Sage Mode), but he has transcended and is now using the Sage's Senjutsu (RSM)

AMAZING work!

 

[DeadManWonderLand]

One thing i would like to add is that orochimaru already knew how to intake senjustu which is why he was able to create the curse marks by analyzing jugo's clan.
Remember he was taught by the great snake sage.
It was itachi's doing by reversing the genjustu placed on him by orochimary that he needed to switch bodies and thus unable to his his senjustu for sage mode.

and the affects of the curse mark happen because its senjustu energy being placed into users with no training in natural energy this eroding their body.

Great thread. You should also explain the drawbacks too.

Besides the technical faults such as having to be stationary to gather energy there is no actual drawbacks to using sage mode.
Its not a power up that comes with a cost other than the skills necessary to obtain it.

 

[HashiraMadara]

cool thread

 

[Romy9]

Nice. This can actually give people some more insight into how powerful Naruto actually is even without a Bijuu.

not even that is a drawback because when fused with the summoning or mastered it enough you can gather on the go.
