[Taijutsu ] -Avenger- & Kuroh

[ZK]

Deadly technique if you ask me. This can technique can be used when the opponent attempts to punch/kick you around the stomach and groin area. I don't know if it would be possible to use this technique if the opponent is attempting to punch you in the head, one could probably jump and try this counter? I can see someone doing it if they use the correct wording. But if one successfully performs this technique, they would end up breaking the opponents arm or leg which leaves him in a disadvantage the rest of the fight. Also if you successfully perform this, you could use your free arm to punch the opponent. This technique wouldn't work if the opponent is aiming to strike you below your knees, and probably if he's attacking you from the air.

NEVER JUMP! You need solid footing for this technique to be effective and though you might perform this successfully in mid-air; you'll have left yourself open to a counter with the jump.
But yes; this technique is for breaking an opponent's arm, or wrist, or hand, or whatever.
And yes; combine this with a punch-related Taijutsu technique and you have yourself both a defense and an offense at the same time.

Yes, you pretty much answered all my questions and I don't have any questions for now.



About (Kōsa Hō) – Intersection method, well it's a very useful technique to intercept oncoming taijutsu attacks, effectively a bone shattering technique. According to me, it can be used in normal standing position or if the user is already in some low position, he could use it to intercept lower kicks. I don't think that the user would've enough time to take some lower position/stance to intercept low kicks, so I guess that's one disadvantage. I have to agree with Kuroh i.e., unable to intercepting high kicks or punches. The way I see Kōsa Hō, the user requires to maintain balance (have firm footing on the ground) on one feet and push against the ground, while he attempts to intercept the oncoming attack with his other knee and elbow. So intercepting an attack in mid air is not plausible because
1. you can't maintain proper body balance
2. and coz of (1) you cannot generate enough force for this technique.
I could be wrong about this though.

I have nothing to add. Proper footing is key.

Finally, and this is the final thing before we're done; tell me about the elemental Taijutsu among the B-ranked techniques. Can they be used with Ninjutsu? Can two be used simultaneously? How would you use them with normal Taijutsu?

I really like (Raijin) - Zeus, a simple but deadly technique. I think so, I've always wanted to place an explosion tag on a opponent and send him flying onto the air (Noob moment). I think that's possible if you use the Zeus technique. It can be used with Ninjutsu techniques that don't require the use of elemental chakra, Only people who have Y/Y can use two types of chakra. That's what I heard. It would also be cool to perform a few combos with some shadow clones.

(Raijin) - Zeus is simple, very effective and a fast move. Since almost all ninjutsu make use of raw chakra, Raijin can be used in combo with ninjutsu. I believe that Raijin and ninjutsu can be performed simultaneously, because it's just lightning based tai+ raw chakra based ninjutsu and doesn't require yin-yang training. I can think of few combos like poison mist, or Jiraiya's hair jutsus. Also smoke ninjutsu could be used simultaneously with Raijin, since it's not an elemental ninjutsu per se. How about sound release? I think it can also be used in conjunction with Raijin too. :dunno:
