When most of their skills are unique to them, their body type is still identifiable.

without their masks, the uniform they wear is quite different from typical members.



cause you know, if i see someone using a "lightning blade" technique on a mask i don't go "thats probably konohamaru or something."

and when i see someone using a wood technique i dont think "daymn, that guy can build houses and sell em."

i guess its just to make em look cool or something.

Theoretically it's because they have to do immoral things and therefore it's so no one knows who they are. However you're point about unique jutsu is true.

It's to conceal their identities, so they can't have intel gathered on them.

yeah but when i see someone wearing an ANBU mask with a white hair that sticks up like a broom, im pretty sure next time i see it i wont go... "hey, do you happen to own an ANBU mask by any chance?"

it was said that typical ANBU members would wear 2 side pouches or something like that.
its just... dumb really.

To conceal their IDs so they don't get mocked for sucking on their days off if they make it up to then.

They wear masks to hide their f*ck ugly faces, I thought this was obvious?

If you were to see the lightning blade you'd probably be dead in the next few mins.

so no one can see the shame on their face when an elite class ninja gets done up like fodder.

when you face with itachi and see his sharingan there is no second time for you to recognise him

They take being a fodder seriously so they put on a mask to look more like a fool.
