Reliops wrote: I left out the word "how" in front of malleable, i.e. the fact you believe something like TSB has to have multiple techniques because of how malleable it is only strengthens my argument that is its own root ability. There are no other named jutsu. I don't believe there need to be other named jutsu. None of what the Fourth Kazekage does is ever named and Gaara still has a handful of unnamed stuff. But in both of their cases there's an acknowledgment that their unnamed techniques are made of a singular substance.

What I do believe is that it's foolish to continue to call things balls when they are not balls. Especially when the word ball is used so rarely and, when it is, specifically only for balls.

Reliops wrote: There is no precedent nor any real logic to go by your way of coining a new term to classify TSB as a part of it. Except for the "magnetic chakra" precedent I brought up before. There's also Sakon and Ukon, whose unnamed kekkei genkai is regarded separately from any of the named techniques they perform.

Despite Elveonora's apparent fondness for the term, "Truth Release" was not a serious suggestion. "Black Weapons" is actually used in the series so it's at least semi-serious. Another option would be to reuse the original article name: "malleable chakra". Or something else entirely, even.

I'm legitimately surprised that you're so resistant to this. Do you not think the balls are made of anything?
