Talk:Water Prison Technique

I think there is two types of this technique, one to catch the opponent and one that lets him drown. The one Zabuza used on Kakashi was ment to keep the prisoner safe (Zabuza said that he wanted to fight Kakashi alone and wanted to get rid of team 7 so the jonins could fight themselves), so Kakashi was still abel to breathe (thus beeing abel to talk and move). Kisame wanted to fight Might Guy alone too, but he caught team Guy insteed, and since he diden't cared about them, he was going to let them drown. Jacce 19:44, 27 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Perhaps, but it's also possible that the jutsu merely lets the user control that aspect of the prison. Unless there is some alternate name or sign used in the creation of it, it wouldn't be right to separate them. ~ NOTASTAFF Daniel Friesen (DanTMan, Nadir Seen Fire) (talk) current discussion Oct 26, 2008 @ 12:34 (UTC)
 * I diden't mean to make two pages, just mention it. Jacce 13:09, 26 October 2008 (UTC)

Neji
Was it that he disrupted the chakra, or that he used Rotation to just burst out? Thomas Finlayson (talk) 02:03, June 13, 2010 (UTC)


 * Once trapped the target is unable to move while within it due to the heaviness of the water. From article.--TheUltimate3 (talk) 02:05, June 13, 2010 (UTC)

He just release chakra from all his tenketsu, like he did when he couldn't move because of Kidomaru's spiderweb. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 02:07, June 13, 2010 (UTC)

Roatation involves letting the chakra burst out, that can be either a phsycial push "or" disruption. Thomas Finlayson (talk) 02:11, June 13, 2010 (UTC)

Release chakra from tenketsu disrupts/pushes away other stuff. Release chakra and spinning fast enough pushes away everything. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 02:29, June 13, 2010 (UTC)
 * According to Kidomaru the spinning was more to cover the blind spot/hide the fact they have one. Moreover, Neji was standing still when Naruto first punched him, he only spun to send him flying about. Thomas Finlayson (talk) 02:34, June 13, 2010 (UTC)
 * About the releasing chakra from tenketsu, I mean the time when Kidomaru stuck Neji to a tree, and Neji said he can release chakra from all his tenketsu. When Naruto punched him, I think that Neji released chakra from his face, but as that wasn't enough to throw Naruto away, he spun. Just releasing can push something, but to push more than that, spinning is required. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 03:00, June 13, 2010 (UTC)

And in this case? Thomas Finlayson (talk) 00:10, June 15, 2010 (UTC)
 * I would say he did only just a regular chakra disruption. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 00:13, June 15, 2010 (UTC)

Class: Defensive
Was it reverted back to just supplementary because of the databooks? Thomas Finlayson (talk) 23:18, September 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes.--Deva 27 (talk) 23:20, September 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * (Sigh) Minor question, do jutsu can updates in the databooks if something new happens with them (Rasenshuriken for example)? What I mean is, can we expect the next databook (when will that be again?) to note that it can also be used defensively, or will it mainly be dedicated to the new stuff. Thomas Finlayson (talk) 23:31, September 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * There has never been a jutsu update in the databooks. At least not so far, the next might be different. Still, in the meantime, it cannot be denied that the Water Prison has some sort of defensive capabilities. However, this was a very special case. It wasn't so much a defensive use as more of a supplementary use direct on oneself. Kisame didn't use the technique to defend himself, he sued it to lock himself in with the sharks he summoned afterwards.
 * It's only normal that it would be difficult to break through the prison from the outside. That's why it's a prison. In a normal fight, under normal circumstances, using it as a defensive technique would be silly at best. —ShounenSuki (talk 00:33, September 4, 2010 (UTC)

It's likely this could come up with any number of jutsu. Just keep in mind that the Class is how it's intended to be used, and creative uses are just that. Example, a shotgun is Class offensive, using it as a door jam doesn't make it supplementary. Arrancar79 (talk) 01:01, September 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * ...and a sword to block and a shield to club, very well. Could the defensive be noted a wee bit more clearly in the writeup though? Why would it be 'silly' to use it as a defensive technique though? 360 degree defense and normal physical damage unable to do anything. Granted the user is stuck in place as long as it is active, but similiar constraints with earth jutsu defenses. Thomas Finlayson (talk) 18:42, September 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * As it is currently stated, "Because of the density of the water it can be used for defensive purposes if performed on oneself" seems to cover it, agreed? Arrancar79 (talk) 18:51, September 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * Using it as a defensive technique would be silly, because Water Prison's first and foremost function is to keep things inside, locked up, and unable to move and breathe. In other words, although you might be quite well protected, you'll also be drowning, immobile, and unable to attack. —ShounenSuki (talk 18:53, September 6, 2010 (UTC)
