 * The short and simple answer would be: because Kishimoto-sensei says so.
 * The longer answer is... well... I'd imagine it using Lightning chakra to more easily infiltrate the target's nervous system or something like that... We don't know, really. --ShounenSuki (talk 22:40, December 25, 2009 (UTC)

Genjutsu?
Wait... how and why is this listed as genjutsu? genjutsu is when the user affects the chakra flow of the target and uses this to affect the nervous system... this is just a really bright flash that temporarily blinds the target... its a ninjutsu that physically blinds the target, not a genjutsu that uses chakra to manipulate the nervous system.... --SkyFlicker (talk) 06:56, December 26, 2009 (UTC)
 * Kishimoto-sensei said it was genjutsu. --ShounenSuki (talk 13:24, December 26, 2009 (UTC)
 * that makes absolutely no sense... lol.. sometimes i think kishimoto gets him/herself confused about whats going on, haha--SkyFlicker (talk) 23:49, December 26, 2009 (UTC)
 * Why, pray tell, doesn't this make sense? There is a genjutsu that causes absolute darkness, so why not a genjutsu that causes blinding light? --ShounenSuki (talk 00:05, December 27, 2009 (UTC)
 * Because it is a physical flash brought about by nature transformation, and not by attacking the chakra in the nervous system?--SkyFlicker (talk) 05:09, December 27, 2009 (UTC)
 * Or maybe it isn't. Maybe it's an illusionary flash. Ever thought of that possibility? Darui, the Raikage, and Shī himself weren't affected by the flash. --ShounenSuki (talk 16:07, December 27, 2009 (UTC)
