Yin Release

Sarada comparing it to the Nara Clans with no pushback in episode is more than enough to classify this and the sword technique as such imo. Jiraiyas toad shadow manipulation technique involves practically taking over your targets physical being, but that’s not what’s happening here as Tsukiyo/Shojoji literally manifest it themselves, which isn’t much different from the Nara clan. Not the exact same tech in terms of utility obviously, but the nature is the same and it’s far more speculative to suggest otherwise.

Except she didn't quite compare it. She didn't state anything, she only asked if there was another clan that had shadow manipulation jutsu. While I do agree it probably involves Yin Release, we shouldn't list it as a Yin Release for the same reason we don't list other likely uses of Yin or Yang, like Yang for medical ninjutsu and Sai's drawings, or Yin for Yamanaka clan jutsu: strong suggestion isn't the same as confirmation.
