Changes: Reverse Lotus

Revision as of 05:42, 21 December 2012

This technique is an advanced and more destructive version of the Front Lotus, which requires that at least three chakra gates be opened (in every instance in which it has been used, five gates are opened). Once enough gates are opened, the user launches the target into the air and strikes them at inhuman speed before hitting them with one arm and one foot, sending the target crashing into the ground which is usually fatal due to the speed and power behind the attack.

Because so many chakra gates are opened at once, it can only be used once, since the user will likely be unable to stand afterwards. This is proven when Lee is left barely able to stand after using it on Gaara, and the latter's powerful defences and long-distance attacks allowed him to win the match.

Trivia

In Naruto the Movie 3: Guardians of the Crescent Moon Kingdom, Lee uses a chain staff formed from his nunchaku in place of the bandages around his wrists to throw his opponent into the air.
