Talk:Chimera Technique

Similarity
Going by Hiruko's image in his character page, is it worth mentioning that the Chimera technique looks like Chibaku Tensei? The sphere in the middle of both hands I mean. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 15:58, 1 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Anyone? Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 17:08, April 4, 2010 (UTC)

What's that got to do with the effect? Ōnoki's Dust Release: Detachment of the Primitive World Technique started as a small cube in his hands also. --GoDai (talk) 17:11, April 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * I wasn't talking about the effect, just the look. They both look like spheres which are held in middle of both hands. The Dust Release technique has a different shape, but it also has a similarity with Chibaku Tensei because they both expand when propelled, but have opposite effects: one attracts things creating one big mass, the other deconstructs what it hits, atomizing it.

So like, "Hiruko creates a sphere resembling Chibaku Tensei in the middle of his hands"???
 * Something more polished, along the lines of "The Chimera Technique creates a sphere which bears resemblance to Chibaku Tensei", or "The Chimera Technique's early stages resembles Chibaku Tensei, as both jutsu create a sphere which is held by both hands".

 * I think you should if it helps people visualize the technique. --GoDai (talk) 17:26, April 4, 2010 (UTC)

While you're at it, please mention this technique can absorb the chakra of other ninja because that's what happened in the trailer when he used Earth Release: Devouring Earth.--GoDai (talk) 18:45, April 4, 2010 (UTC)

Now that I think about it, wasn't the technique that he used at the beginning of the movie Dark Release: Inhaling Maw? He absorbed chakra without absorbing their bodies, he used no mutating slime, and he detected their nature affinity, which resembles Dark Release. He was also raising only his left hand while absorbing chakra. --GoDai (talk) 06:17, April 23, 2010 (UTC)
 * Not sure if it's Inhaling Maw itself, because the technique looked quite different from the known time he used it, but I definitely think it's a Dark Release technique. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 16:40, April 23, 2010 (UTC)

Absorptions
Did the movie elaborate on which kekkei genkai he acquired? It could be worth mentioning. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 21:04, 21 August 2009 (UTC)
 * I only remember the 4 advanced natures: Storm, Dark, Steel, and Swift. Not quite sure about the so-called "Dōjutsu" on his forehead. --GoDai (talk) 18:45, April 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yeah, these are four kekkei genkai he absorbed, not sure on the dōjutsu though. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 18:50, April 4, 2010 (UTC)

Now that I've watched the movie, something tells me it was a Juinjutsu. --GoDai (talk) 03:05, April 23, 2010 (UTC)
 * Definitely. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 03:53, April 23, 2010 (UTC)

??
What does it mean to properly acquire Kekkai Genkai? It seemed in the movie he had fairly masterful use of Steel, Swift, Dark, and Storm Release.
 * He could already use those kekkei genkai, but he said that in order to assimilate them, he would need to perform that ritual during the eclipse. He had access to them, but couldn't use them to their fullest extent. That's how I got it. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 01:46, April 23, 2010 (UTC)

He copied/stole their kekkei genkai, but I think they said he needed to assimilate/absorb their whole bodies to absorb the kekkei genkai perfectly, and make them as it they were exactly his own. --GoDai (talk) 06:19, April 23, 2010 (UTC)
