Talk: Eight Branches Technique

Transformation?

Does Orochimaru transform into a eight-headed snake or just makes one? Cooltamerboy 12:17, 9 February 2009 (UTC).

What I understand of it, Orochimaru is the eight-headed snake. It's a transformation of Orochimaru's white snake form. --ShounenSuki 19:49, 9 February 2009 (UTC)

Now that you mention it, on the subject of the Eight Branches technique, during the Shippuden episode 113-114 (I cannot remember the specific episode, just the actual part) I saw Orochimaru reading a scroll detailing a techniquer that vaguely resembled the Eight Branches technique. I was wondering whether it really was an actual reference to the technique or just a coincidence? —This unsigned comment was made by AvatarofDeath (talk • contribs) .

Ive seen it also, the part when Orochimaru is already researching for technique that could grant him immortality, possibly I think it is the true representation of his immortality technique. still, no evidences proved in such. Tsujiraoro07

Yamata VS. Susanoo

This Technique Is based off the Yamata no Orochi AND It was Killed by Susanoo in mythology and Itachis Susanoo should we put that on the trivia page.--Nintendo-Fan (talk) 00:19, November 27, 2009 (UTC)Nintendo-Fan

That's been mentioned in the trivia section for over a year. ~SnapperTo 04:01, November 27, 2009 (UTC)

Kabuto

Kabuto can use it, can't he? User:Domynyk 14:12, February 19, 2011, (UTC)

We have absolutely no idea if he can. —ShounenSuki ^{(talk | contribs | translations)} 13:15, February 19, 2011 (UTC)

You should really keep your questions in one place. You already asked this at Kabuto's talk page, no need to do it somewhere else. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 18:15, February 19, 2011 (UTC)

Heads

What will happen, if all of the snake's heads are destroyed? Can they recover? If yes, we can add this to the Eigth Branches Technique's topic. User:Domynyk 16:25, February 26, 2011, (UTC)

We don't know, and this isn't a forum. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 15:44, February 26, 2011 (UTC)

I haven't said this is a forum! —This unsigned comment was made by Domynyk (talk • contribs) .

Never said you did, but that kind of question is forum-like speculation. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 16:00, February 26, 2011 (UTC)

Producing snakes

I think we should add that Orochimaru can produce smaller snakes with this jutsu. This is true, because, after he was defeated by Itachi, three snakes was produced by the giant snake. User:Domynyk 23:18, Aug 13, 2011, (UTC)

Should not it be mentioned that in anime he found and stole a scroll from Konoha with kinjutsu that obtained his Eight Branches Technique, Living Corpse Reincarnation and other powers of the white snake? To add it to his background or abilities section with:

• "In the anime, its shown that Orochimaru due to being rejected to the position of the 4th Hokage, (thus without a reason to stay in Konoha due to his lust for this position being only his own gains that being acces to forbidden techniques) found and stole a scroll from Hokage Residenc that obtained the white snake's powers before his departure. It's possible that this was what started his obsession with Kinjutsu and to learn all the techniques in the world, thus becoming "the ultimate being" However he stated that a human's lifespan is too short for him to achieve his goals, and thats what made him to experiment on the human subjects he has captured to attain immortality--Elveonora (talk) 23:58, November 2, 2011 (UTC)
