Talk:Dust Release: Detachment of the Primitive World Technique

Hand Seal
In the panel (or 2nd panel) before the little cube starts to form, it really looks like he's using the snake hand seal. Can anyone else with better eyesight and higher resolution confirm this?

Dust Release: Genkai, or Earth?
Isn't the Dust release just a micro or smaller version of Garra's Sand usage?

Since Sand is just simply Earth, ground into small pebbles; wouldn't Dust just be a more ground up version of Earth/Sand just ultimately making it a Earth Jutsu?

No otherwise Kishi woukd of used Doton instead if was just an earth style jutsu. Its qulaties don't even fit it being just a earth release anyway.Also sign your posts.Saimaroimaru (talk) 21:53, October 12, 2009 (UTC)

Funny question...
Just ran the symbols through a kanji-identifier...

The symbol called 'Gen' (原) actually refers to a prairie in this context. I get how it would mean 'primitive', but don't you guys think that the jutsu should be called 'Dust Release: Raw World Separation Technique'? I mean, literally?

Or am I just blowing hot air?--Reikson (talk) 15:48, December 20, 2009 (UTC)
 * 原 can mean prairie, plains, field, or something like that. However, when used as a prefix, as it is use in this technique's name, it takes on the meaning of primitive, original, fundamental, or something to that extent.
 * To illustrate my point:




 * I'd also like to point out that there are two Japanese words for atom, which is what Dust Release manipulates: and . The former word uses the kanji for dust, the latter uses the first kanji of the name of this technique. --ShounenSuki (talk 16:38, December 20, 2009 (UTC)

Barrier Technique
From the way we saw it in the anime and kinda how it was seen in the manga, shouldn't it be listed as a Barrier Technique as well? --Cerez™☺ 19:37, March 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * There is a barrier like thing limiting the range of the effects, so I think that would be appropriate. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 01:40, March 29, 2011 (UTC)
 * I personally disagree about that. I wouldn't call the box around the orb a barrier. It shows the range of the technique, but it doesn't really act like a barrier at all. That's how I see it, at least.Ryne 91 (talk) 01:43, March 29, 2011 (UTC)
 * It limits the effect of the technique. Maybe you mean it shouldn't count as a barrier because it doesn't block things from coming in? Madara probably got in with a space-time technique though. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 02:11, March 29, 2011 (UTC)
 * But does it actually limit the effect of the technique? Perhaps it is merely an indicator of its range. I can't seem to wrap my head around how it would be considered a barrier ninjutsu. And I'm not saying that because of it blocking anything. Barriers are not only used to block.Ryne 91 (talk) 02:18, March 29, 2011 (UTC)
 * I mean it in the sense that the box traps whatever you want to disintegrate while the little ball does the work. When he used it it was contained within the square and after Sasuke was "disintegrated" the square disappeared. So that's why i liken part of the technique to a barrier --Cerez™☺ 03:35, March 29, 2011 (UTC)

Let me explain why I felt that it was not a barrier ninjutsu. When I look at a jutsu, I ask, "What is its primary function?" The answer for this jutsu is essentially, "It breaks down anything within a set amount of space at a near-molecular level." The answer for Jiraiya's Dome Barrier Method would be: "It extents a motion sensing barrier outwards from the user." At this point, I can see why you label this as a barrier technique, but it seems to me that it's only a barrier technique on a technicality. The barrier itself is not the primary function of the jutsu. So, I will stay content with your decision until the jutsu is listed in a databook.Ryne 91 (talk) 05:07, March 29, 2011 (UTC)
 * I can see how this technique could be interpreted as a barrier technique, but isn't saying it is a bit too speculative? It could very well be, but we can't say for sure. —ShounenSuki (talk 08:04, March 29, 2011 (UTC)

Anime usage.
I noticed that the article says "The chakra sphere then seems to explode with a tremendous amount of force, while the exterior walls of the cube effectively restrict the size of the blast radius..." However, the technique is only shown to do this in the anime. In the manga, the cube is simply slammed into the target. Should the article be changed? 98.195.111.154 (talk) 15:48, April 27, 2011 (UTC)
