Talk:Rasengan: "Uzuhiko"

Name
I know there will be a debate on what name should be used. Literal translation, what we have now, or partial literal translation? OmegaRasengan (talk) 15:27, 20 September 2023 (UTC)
 * I think it'll depend on how it actually works. My initial guess is that it'll be the Rasengan variant of Chidori Current. An interesting idea would be to have this be inspired by Shojoji's Wind Release as well. I'm also hopping we get another formatting of the name.

Senjutsu
Senjutsu should be removed from the article until we have further information. The term used is entirely new. Munchvtec (talk) 17:08, 21 October 2023 (UTC)
 * The technique harnesses energy from the planet itself. Sounds like senjutsu to me.Steveo920 (talk) 18:24, 21 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Senjutsu is not just planetary energy, it is natural energy. At least from the translations I saw, Boruto said the attack is fueled by the Earth's chakra, not its natural energy. Senjutsu chakra does not even naturally exist except for those related to Kaguya/Hagoromo. It is the result of a shinobi manually balancing natural energy within their own chakra. I would recommend just swapping out senjutsu energy with the exact term Boruto uses in Japanese and providing a translation alongside it. Arcadia warlic (talk) 02:05, 23 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Natural energy is the energy of the planet. Chakra is just another name for life energy. It was established early on that chakra uses one's physical and mental energy. Then natural energy is added in the mix to use senjutsu.Steveo920 (talk) 05:42, 23 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Chakra is not a name for life energy, it is the combination of physical and mental energy of a living being. The Earth presumably does not have mental energy. Fukasaku's description of natural energy does not match that of chakra's as he describes it as closer to being the life energy of Earth. Id est, the Earth having chakra seems to be a new development.

 * But standard ninjutsu is about harnessing one's own chakra. Boruto was harnessing the planet's chakra.Steveo920 (talk) 21:38, 24 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Using someone else's chakra is not the foundation of senjutsu. The user's own chakra is still used as the foundation therein. Hence my skepticism that this is senjutsu.Arcadia warlic (talk) 07:41, 26 October 2023 (UTC)
 * But to use something that isn't yours to begin with is still taking. Also, the fact that he is in league with Mount Myōboku further implies that he knows senjutsu.Steveo920 (talk) 13:12, 26 October 2023 (UTC)
