1. The sharingan is a dojutsu which manifests within the uchiha clan of konoha. It is red in appearance and its maturity is determined in the number of commas, also known as tomoe, surrounding the pupil. The sharingan gives the user the ability to see chakra as colors with different properties , although it cannot see long distances away and cannot see through dense masses. It also allows the user to slow down their or their targets perception of time, allowing them to track fast opponent or throw them off. The sharingan helps its bearer act accordingly to all attacks, and as well as mimic them if the user is able to do so by using its enhanced precognitive capabilities. Lastly, the sharingan allows the user to hypnotize targets and detect, break cast illusions on them as well as reverse genjutsu upon detecting it being placed on themselves.Lemme know what you know what you currently know about Sharingan and link to your 1T training. Also, is your bio approved?
The three stages of the sharingan can track things moving up to what the bearer can track normally multiplied by 1.5(1T),2(2T), and 3(3T). By giving them a heightened sense of vision and perception, the sharingan allows the user to cut down the time it takes for them to notice what their opponent does and quickly formulate a strategy based off minute movements, previous experiences, and counter accordingly.So you know nothing about the Sharingan. I'd have expected you to have learned something by now but that's giving Sensei too much credit. We'll start at the beginning and go through this with a Q&A session as it's easier to work with. Let's start with it's vision and perception before anything else as these form the basics of it. Be warned we doing a lot of theoretical work and posting here so it'll be a lot of long posts on each side but you can't say you're being hoed in training.
Sharingan is able to track movement speeds beyond that of the user's speed. At what level does each tomoe track and what does this essentially mean? Can the user move and counter taijutsu movements faster than himself? Can he track this speed with clarity or only movements of linear paths? What else does this increase in perception mean?
The sharingan allows the user to see things on cellular level, acting as a microscope and allowing the user to perceive things even to the smallest detail.Pretty good, you have a basic understanding of the tracking mechanics. Since this'll be a collection of info you need to know, I'll explain some more.
The 1Tomoe of the sharingan grants the user first and foremost the ability to track speeds 1.5x his own speed, equivalent to the first of the EIG. Most taijutsu attacks done by the average ninja will be trackable as they will likely be around the same speed as you. The second tomoe increases this perception to being able to track up to 2x his own speed, equal to the second of the EIG. The visual acuity of the Sharingan increases, allowing one to be able to now track the handseal speed of the opponent, seeing the seals performed with clarity, the user now being able to copy these very seals (we'll cover the restrictions regarding this later). The third tomoe increases this perception even more, allowing the user to track speeds up to 3x his own speed, the same speed as the 4th Inner Gate. This means that even small insignificant movements done by opponents will be easily seen to a 3 Tomoe Sharingan wielder, the twitch of a finger, the small blink of an hair or the swish of a cloak, all would be seen as clearly as if the user was standing inches away from the object, watching it. Even the flexing of an arm would be noticable and trackable by the Sharingan.
Advanced levels from the basic three tomoe is first the Mangekyou Sharingan, capable of tracking speeds up to 4x the user speed while the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan tracks up to 5 times the user's speed, over the speed of the 6th gate, but not quite as fast as the 7th.
None of these grant the user any type of speed boost, only the speeds he himself is able to track up. Because the user is able to track such high speeds with clarity, it can cause things of the user's speed to appear to be moving in slow motion.
Now, a bit more tricky question. The Sharingan is able to perceive chakra as well as track speeds. This allows him to track chakra and sense it on a greater but more specific scale. How so? The Sharingan is also able to see through matter but, likewise, on a more specific scale than the Byakugan. How so?
i understand senseiWew lad
First, one should understand the main difference in between the two Doujutsus lies in their usage and the purpose of it. What makes Byakugan unique isn't that the user can see through chakra. It's that it can focus past anything to see this chakra. It has almost no blindspot, and can pinpoint any detail. In essence, Byakugan differs from Sharingan because it is a telescopic vision as Imperfect said, and a much more detailed chakra visual capabilities, able to pinpoint the specifics indentations and variations of chakra (though a Byakugan user will be able to explain in more detail of course).
Sharingan, on the other hand, is a more brutish chakra vision, it can sense the bulk of the chakra, and the general shape and flow of the system that composes a technique or organisms. It is effective in seeing what's hidden, what's wrong, and what's real. It can pierce through illusions simply because it has the visual acuity to look past them, and see the reality of what is really there, but it excels in seeing exactly what's in front of it. Sharingan users are masters of genjutsu not only because of the convenient doujutsu casting mechanism or the advanced chakra control, but because they can memorize and detect expressions and movements to the most minute detail. It's often used to copy taijutsu, ninjutsu and to mess with your mind. Now, this has been shown multiple times, especially with Itachi. Noticeably, he did this and was praised for it by Kabuto, his knack at reading people. I say noticeably because not only was it a big deal to be able to read an accomplished spy, plus it's one of the things that has been consistent with the Uchiha and Sharingan despite Kishi bein known to contradict himself a lot.
The Sharingan has a type of dual layered vision, regular eyesight that all Shinobi and beings have and then a Chakra/X-ray type vision, that overlap with one another to create the visual map Sharingan users have. Their ability to see chakra inside a solid non chakra infused object is related to the ability they have of focusing between each "vision". If you understand a bit of photography you can understand this as similar to focal points. If you focus on something near, you blur away whats far, and the other way around. If you translate that into the chakra VS normal light vision things, you can understand how it works a bit better. Its like looking at a glass. You can see the glass or focus to see past it. They can see chakra inside matter otherwise they wouldn't see chakra at all as chakra isn't something that goes flying around in the air. Its always (or almost) inside a medium, solid 90% of the time, like the human body. They see chakra inside something by unfocusing they normal vision (so to speajk) and focusing on the chakra part. Thats why most of the times, when it comes to tyring to find something hidden or something hard to find you often see them "ofucing" on their vision.
Thats why to negate their eye benefits, you need to negate both visions: you need something that will block their normal vision and something that will block their chakra vision. So, hidden mist. By being infused with the users chakra, if they look with their chakra vision, the only thing they see is chakra. If they look with their normal vision, all they see is mist. Thats why its used to block the sharingan. And thats how the sharingan should be blocked.
As for what and how far they can see through things, I think some key aspects play in this whole thing:
1. distance: Sharingan can see but they can't zoom or anything. They are simply normal eyes that can see chakra and details and what not. But they can't zoom or become microscopes or telescopes like the byakugan can.
2. type of medium: Something that wasn't created by chakra will always be easier to see through than something created by chakra, even if chakra is no longer there.
3. chakra "size": A person has more chakra than a technique, thus why I think finding someone is easier than finding something.
Now what does this translate to? I think they can see chakra inside a medium as long as its like half a meter to a few meters inside it. Further than that, no.Dust clouds, Wind barriers, etc. If you have them big enough, the enemy wouldn't be able to see you unless you are visible in normal eye sight
Sharingan hypnosis is initiated upon the sharingan user making eye contact with their target. By doing so, the Sharingan user is able to implant thoughts, feelings and words into the minds of their targets, making them susceptible to believing that the sharingan user is able to read their minds.Sharingan has many different abilities, one of it's most notable and powerful abilities is also one of the most underused and underrated abilities in the RP. As shown by Madara and Sasuke at different intervals, the Sharingan is able to hypnotize a foe. While different to casting a Genjutsu on them, the two hold similarities. What all can you tell me about it's hypnotic abilities?
let me guess, sharingan gen is next?That's pretty much it, but let me explain some points for clarity.
Hypnosis is essentially tapping into the more primal levels of your mind. To explain, the mind is similar to an onion, with layers and layers of thoughts, emotions, feelings, etc. These layers are held together by the will of the person. This will can be manipulated and shut down through hypnosis, causing them to revert back to this primal sense of control. This can largely be done via Sharingan genjutsu, but on a smaller more specific scale, it can be done without genjutsu. It always requires eye contact and this contact must be sustained. Through this eye contact, you can alter how they see and perceive basic things, changing them to suit your needs. You can for example alter their perception of time, like when Kakashi fought Zabuza like Imp said ( though, Zabuza performed the jutsu, Kakashi made it seem as if he was performing the seals at the same time, suggesting he could read his mind ), you can alter feelings and suggest words into their mind, which can make it seem as if you can read his mind. With this, you can play around and toy around with their mind, but you can never bend their mind to the point that you manipulate their free will or body. It's ideal for taijutsu means, altering their sense of time perception to make it appear as if you are attacking at the same time as he is. But the true usage of it comes from it's roleplaying aspects, roleplaying not as in Battling, but roleplaying as in character development and such lol. Like you can hypnotize them into feeling fear, anger, anxiety, etc etc, and from a RP standpoint, that's a pretty cool thing to make use of in a battle. Of course, there is a few limitations to this, namely the fact that you must maintain eye contact continously and the fact that it only works on targets 1 rank and lower from your rank, Sage being able to affect Unofficial Sages and so on and so forth.
sharingan genjutsu are illusion based techniques that are produced via the sharingan. some of these techniques require direct eye contact while others just need the target to be within the users line of sight.the sharingan can also break visual genjutsu by being able to see through them due to noticing reality vs illusion. also the sharingan can reverse the genjutsu back onto the original caster.NOW, on to the genjutsu lol. Sharingan genjutsu is pretty powerful, capable of taking the last things I just discussed with you about Hypnosis but on a stronger level, able to control the opponent. What can you tell me about the Sharingan genjutsu in general? It also has abilities related to genjutsu, while not directly casting them. What are these? What else do you know about it's Genjutsu related abilities?
