Talk:Shadow Gathering Technique

Same???
I don't get it, Kage Nui and Shadow Endgame technique are the same jutsu... Kage nui can pick up and throw shurikens and do the same things as Endgame... so what is this new technique....  If anybody could show me a link maybe to where this comes from or just explain it, I would happy. Shikamaru1994 22:10, 17 November 2008 (UTC)Shikamaru1994
 * Both Kagenui and Kageyose are explained in the third databook. To summarise:
 * Kagenui no Jutsu: Ninjutsu, Hiden, No rank, Offensive, Supplementary, Short to mid-range (0-10m). Turns shadows into tangible sharp threads that can be used to literally sew the opponent to the ground. In certain cases, the threads can also be used to attack.
 * Kageyose no Jutsu: Ninjutsu, Hiden, No rank, Supplementary, Short to mid-range (0-10m). Turns shadows into tangible tendrils, capable of picking up and moving objects.
 * Although they are similar, there is a distinct difference between the two techniques. --ShounenSuki 23:39, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

Debut
According to the databook image, this was used when Shikamaru used it to pick up the chakra enhanced knife during the battle with Hidan and Kakuzu, before he left with Hidan. That would make its manga debut chapter 333, and anime debut 83 (or 84, I don't remember where the they split the chapter). Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 00:25, July 31, 2010 (UTC)
