Talk:Fire Release: Hiding in Ash and Dust Technique

Haijin?
What I got from it was crippling...can't find any other meaning of this word. --OmegaRasengan (talk) 05:33, December 4, 2013 (UTC)
 * Haijin means "ash" and "dust" as well as stated from Asuma's fire technique. I think it's better to move this page to Fire Release: Hiding in Ash Technique, don't we? — Shakhmoot Nadeshiko Village Symbol.svg (Talk) 06:54, December 4, 2013 (UTC)
 * Technically, the most accurate name would be "Fire Release: Hiding in Ash and Dust Technique", since "haijin" refers to both of them. We did similar translations for Earth Release: Earth and Stone Dragon and Earth Release: Earth and Stone Bamboo Shoot. I don't oppose leaving it as it is, but I'm throwing this out there.

 * You're right Omni-san. I think it's better to move it again to that name. — Shakhmoot Nadeshiko Village Symbol.svg (Talk) 04:10, December 5, 2013 (UTC)

Only Offensive?
The article says that i can "be used as a powerful deterrent from attacks as well as a highly effective smokescreen". These are defensive and supplementary traits. Enough to classify the technique as such? Norleon (talk) 14:54, December 4, 2013 (UTC)

 * Supplementary yes, defensive no. Other than the damage from the hot ashes, this is the same as Hiding in Mist, and preventing yourself from being seen was not considered defensive in the databook categorisation. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 23:26, December 4, 2013 (UTC)
