Any chance we can get a double-check on this? I looked for a translation online but I got nothing. Jugo's 4th databook entry. Page 106. This statement is acknowledged on one of the talk pages but the higher ups on the Naruto wiki treat "sage" and "sage mode" synonymously, so they came to the decision that Sage Transformation is a means to achieve Sage Mode. Huge leap in logic IMO.

Messed up part is, the citation used to justify that statement doesnt talk at all about Sage Mode.
 * "In Jugo's village, the state after invoking the power of Senjutsu is referred to as "Sage Transformation".

The databook itself says that Sage Transformation is a "state", not a method and is seperate from Sage Mode. Even if Kabuto uses Sage Transformation to assist in his usage of Sage Mode, it is still a seperate thing

What do you think about the transformation of the body? If it appears because of an unbalanced chakra senjutsu, can Sage Mode Jirayu also be called Sage Transformation, or not?
