Talk:Turning into a Frog Technique

So is it proven that this is not indeed just a scare tactic or was the rest just taken off to protect copyright? I suppose if Guy could masquerade as a turtle, it would be possible to force something like this on someone else. Mr. Briggs Inc. 23:21, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

Summoning or Transformation?
Does Jiraya sends his target to the inside of a toad or does he change his target into a frog (using Henge or something like that)? L Mars (talk) 17:49, March 31, 2010 (UTC)
 * Unless I am mistaken, he summons the toad around the target.

 * Ryne
 * He actually changes the target into a toad. --ShounenSuki (talk 18:25, March 31, 2010 (UTC)

Ah, okay. I always thought it was a simple summoning because that was what the wikia said about it in about September, which was the last time I looked at it. Ryne 91 (talk) 18:32, March 31, 2010 (UTC) Ryne
 * So it's like an Henge right? But can the oponente change back to normal at will, or only when jiraiya wants it? It is explaind in the Databook? L Mars (talk) 18:36, March 31, 2010 (UTC)

Genjutsu
Shouldn't this technique be a genjutsu instead? Yatanogarasu 03:15, May 20, 2010 (UTC) Why Genjutsu, it literally transforms them into a frog.--Deva 27 (talk) 03:25, May 20, 2010 (UTC)

Because as it said, "mental image", meaning Jiraiya made Ryusui think that he transformed Yudachi into a frog. Yatanogarasu 06:17, May 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * "Mental Image" means Jiraiya thought of what he wanted Ryusui to look like and then changed him into that form.--Deva 27 (talk) 06:23, May 20, 2010 (UTC)

How long does it last?
How long does it last? A set period of time? Until the person figures out how to reverse it? Until Jiraiya reverses it? Until a certain condition is met? Or is it permanent? Skarrj (talk) 19:20, July 16, 2012 (UTC)

Naruto's usage (Chikara Arc)
Naruto couldn't have just turned a snake into a toad. If this isn't "proof" enough, the colour and species (tree frog) of the frog is also the same, so, call me crazy, but I think it's the same.--Omojuze (talk) 15:56, January 1, 2015 (UTC)
