Thekillman wrote: What i meant is, can we consider things like mud ("Earth style: Mud wall"), lime/lava/rubber, truly different elements because of yin/yang? Mud is used for several earth releases, so does it just fall under "earth release?" Well...in this situation i see thing differently. It will be a mix with Yin or Yang only if that create a new Nature....but things like Mud are not a change of shape....i think that Eart Style have naturaly many form that differ with the user.

- Compact (Earth): Ordinary appearance of Dôton.

- Rocky (Stone): The most robust of appearances, but also the least malleable.

- Clay (Clay): The most malleable of appearances (makes it possible to obtain round or oval constructions). Incredibly robust against blunt attacks, but extremely weak in the face of sharp attacks.

- Viscous (Mud): The only appearance of Dôton that does not remain once the spell creates. Similar to Suiton, it is necessary to maintain some control over it to enjoy its effects for a long time.

So...for the Lava Release, everything depends on the shape of the Doton used by the ninja:

- Rocky -> Molten Rock (Son Goku and Roshi)

- Viscous -> Acidic (Meï Terumi)

- Compact -> Quicklime (Kurotsuchi and many other Ninja)

- Clay -> Rubber (Dodaï)
