Signs image

Isn't the current image that replaced the previous one a policy violation for containing English text ? I don't know why it was replaced, the previous image just showing the signs is all that is needed.

EDIT: I checked, apparently the image itself was replaced, and the replacement is technically against the rules of the image policy as well. --Speysider ^{Talk Page | My Image Uploads | Tabber Code | Channel} 18:07, September 14, 2013 (UTC)

The policy is against English text added by scanlation groups. The previous image had scanlation text, the current image doesn't. ~Snapper T o 18:14, September 14, 2013 (UTC)

You know, I always wondered where we even got that image in the first place.--TheUltimate3

^(talk) 19:04, September 14, 2013 (UTC)

@Snapper2: It needs to be uploaded under a different file name and as a separate file, since your reupload technically violates the part regarding uploading new versions of files (aka "only the exact same image that is on a file in better quality can be reuploaded over the previous") and your reupload is a different image entirely. Just sayin' --Speysider ^{Talk Page | My Image Uploads | Tabber Code | Channel} 19:06, September 14, 2013 (UTC)

And this is something of such vital importance that we need to be a stickler about it?

Both versions are from the same source and contain the same figures/information. They are barely "different". ~Snapper T o 19:10, September 14, 2013 (UTC)

hand seals stat again

On Narutoanswerswika a question was asked that why has Chouji his stat lowered between 2nd and 3rd databooks. I thought it refers to chakra control, my answer got replaced with an answer indicating the stat has to do with speed of one's hands, which is nonsense in itself, because that would generally fall under "speed" Any actual evidence what it refers to? Chakra control is the most logical, considering the seals are used to better manipulate chakra, not to show off finger yoga--Elveonora (talk) 12:08, October 11, 2013 (UTC)

That's something to take up with Naruto Answers I think.--TheUltimate3

Most of the editors (admins and those who answer) in there are editors here too and locals such as Seelentau or even you are more likely to know. After all, we are the guys who are supposed "to know" so raising the topic there in a place at which most of the editors are ones who ask the questions wouldn't go anywhere--Elveonora (talk) 12:22, October 11, 2013 (UTC)

Chacra nature hand seal

During Deidara and Sasuke fight, Sasuke mentioned that Deidara hand sighns are for Earth chacra type... —This unsigned comment was made by Ozren (talk • contribs) .

Yes, so? It's already noted that certain signs are associated with natures--Elveonora (talk) 22:25, February 20, 2014 (UTC)

Asura and Indra

Shouldn't it be mentioned that Asura and Indra was seen using the seal of confrontation in front of each other, they could have been doing the Traditional Shinobi Sparring and that was around the time of Ninshu therefor they could be the first to do so while at the same time its possible that its from Hagoromo's teaching--MERCURIOUS (talk) 16:23, April 24, 2014 (UTC)

Didn't we see Kaguya doing those? Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 16:41, April 24, 2014 (UTC)

Since it is a seal used for Ninjutsu it doesn't really matter who used it first, what I wanted to say is that Asura and Indra doing the seal as a part of the two seals used in the traditional sparring so it's kind of goes back to their time as the first to do so--MERCURIOUS (talk) 17:30, April 24, 2014 (UTC)

+== Chacra nature hand seal ==
-During his KGB training for chakra nature manipulation, Naruto was able to call forth wind chakra without making any hand seals. In theory, Sasuke is doing the same thing, except with lightning chakra instead. He summons forth the lightning element without any hand seals, then shapes it to form his variety of Chidori techniques.

-I have a theory too, not all techniques use handsigns, for example, many of guren's crystal techniques, and in some cases, a "half tiger sign" can be used in stead of the normal hand sels. Also, sometimes certain techniques(such as the water clone technique) can be done without handsigns(such as in kisame's case when he was battling with gai), despite the water clone jutsu needing the tiger handsign, so maybe after practicing a justu enough the user can use the half-tiger sign, and then with even more training(or just experiance from usage) the user can do it even without ANY handsign. One last thing, maybe these techniques don't even need hadsigns in the first place(although the raikiri is shown to need them, so if he didn't use them once, I bet this isn't the answer, although that part could simply be an error, or they ran out of time and decided to delete that part, or something like that).--[[User:WhiteWizardOfWater|WhiteWizardOfWater]] ([[User talk:WhiteWizardOfWater|talk]]) 04:21, 8 July 2009 (UTC)

-Read the [[chakra]] Page and it syas that ninjas can use some ninjutsu without handseals but the handseals help to concentrate chakra [[User:Narutosagemaster|Narutosagemaster]] ([[User talk:Narutosagemaster|talk]]) 06:01, October 1, 2009 (UTC)

-If I recall correctly, when fighting kakuza, he uses an earth hardening jutsu and did no hand signs, but later it is said by himself that kikashi was able to read his earth seals extremely fast.  I always just figured that they DO all use handseals, but just use them extremely fast.  Also, think of it this way, using the hand seals takes up space/time in the manga/anime that is probably better spent giving us more actual story than panels/minutes worth of hand seals every chapter/episode...and if asked, the writer would likely say 'they just use them really fast'--[[User:SkyFlicker|SkyFlicker]] ([[User talk:SkyFlicker|talk]]) 17:03, October 1, 2009 (UTC)
-:Kakashi was reading the hand signs of the hardening jutsu just before Choji tried to take out Kakuzu in the end of episode 83. [[User:Jacce|Jacce]] | [[User talk:Jacce|Talk]] 20:09, October 7, 2009 (UTC)
-in the manga kakuzu '''is''' shown using the snake seal.
-== New affiliatons? ==
-Some of the hand seals say that they have new affiliations, such as the monkey being associated with lightning release. Where is this information coming from?
-During the battle with Pain, the ANBU that tried to counter Animal Realm's summons, used Wind Release and Lightning Release techniques. They each only used one hand seal for their techniques. The ANBU that used Futon used the Dragon hand seal, while the one who used Raiton used Monkey. Further in the recent chapters Darui used monkey with his Raiton. Also monkey is present in the basic Raikiri hand seal sequence, while I believe Ox should also be associated with it, because it was Kakuzu's Ox mask that used False Darkness.[[User:Rayfire|Rayfire]] ([[User talk:Rayfire|talk]]) 16:25, September 25, 2009 (UTC)
-:One technique using a single seal doesn't really mean that the seal is associated with that Release, that would require several techniques of that element being shown to use it, like Fire, Earth and Wood have shown. From the ones on the page right now, I don't buy Lightning with Monkey (clearly an Ox association as already mentioned), Rooster with Water (not that common in the many techniques we have listed), Dragon with Wind (there are hardly any Wind Release techniques which use hand seals, I think only two wind techniques use that seal) and Ram with Crystal (Boar, Tiger and Monkey appear as much as Ram in these). I'm taking those out until there's more discussion. [[User:Omnibender|Omnibender]] - [[User talk:Omnibender|Talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Omnibender|Contributions]] 01:00, October 1, 2009 (UTC)
-::Perhaps we shouldn't be connecting hand-seals to elements at all, unless there was a clear indication of it in the series. Like with Fire Release and Earth Release, both of which had their associated hand-seal clearly shown in the manga. For the rest, it seems the way the hand-seals are drawn is simply too inconsistent and that's even without bringing in manga VS anime canonicity. --[[User:ShounenSuki|ShounenSuki]] <sup>([[User_talk:ShounenSuki|talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/ShounenSuki|contribs]])</sup> 01:14, October 1, 2009 (UTC)
-== Yinwater formation? ==
-I was wondering about the yin water seal while reading the manga when I saw an unusual seal in chapter 49 (when Orochimaru gave sasuke his juinjutsu). I looked the hand seals for the jutsu up, but all I could find was a reference to a secret hand seal that didn't seem to match the context this was used in. So, I ask the question, is that seal the secret seal of that juinjutsu, or is it the yin water seal?

-I'm not sure about your question, but the article did say the handseal was unknown and when I was running through the anime of the battle on slow speed I noticed that kakashi formed this seal:
-[http://img21.imageshack.us/my.php?image=vlcsnap1847637.png Jin handseal picture]
-This handseal was followed by the three handseals specified in the bottom text as following the jin handseal so I believe that this is the jin handseal

-==Other Hand Seals==
-Um, who here has proof that Yamanaka clan's Mind Body Switch Technique "Hand seal" is real hand seal and not just a targeting sight? Otherwise i see it as speculation... [[User:Simant|Simant]] ([[User talk:Simant|talk]]) 23:41, November 20, 2009 (UTC)
-:Sakura recognized the technique by the hand seal when she and Ino fought just after the second part of the Chunin exam. [[User:Omnibender|Omnibender]] - [[User talk:Omnibender|Talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Omnibender|Contributions]] 23:54, November 20, 2009 (UTC)
-::Hmm.. in the anime yes they do say signs, and Ino says "hand sign." But in manga chapter 72, I don't see them referencing the hand signs at all, though I should ask Shonen. Though I do notice another unique ''hand sign'' when she releases the jutsu. [[User:Simant|Simant]] ([[User talk:Simant|talk]]) 00:45, November 21, 2009 (UTC)
-:::Sakura does directly refer to that hand seal as a hand seal. In fact, in the official fanbook, there is an article about hand seals and this hand seal is used as an example of a hand seal that is not one of the twelve basic hand seals.

-== DOG AND HALF TIGER SEALS ==
-.I think that the dog seal is also commonly affiliated with wind release because if you look at danzo's Fūtons they all end with this seal...please mention this in the page.
-.we have another unique hand seal...(i don't know its name but)half tiger seal...the one that is with the index fingers only(instead of index and middle fingers)a great example is danzo's Wind Release: Vacuum Great Sphere...mention this too. --[[Special:Contributions/94.183.157.132|94.183.157.132]] ([[User talk:94.183.157.132|talk]]) 06:18, January 22, 2010 (UTC)
-==Haku's seals==
-Hey guys, I think I figured out how Haku seals from "Thousand Flying Water Needles of Death" jutsu are made. I watched epi 13 slowly and I thought he could have made the normal seals just with the left hand. Just see the dog seal example: the right hand is closed and the left hand is straight. I searched a little and conclude my hypothesis.
-Here are the 8 seals shown in the anime and each one I identified (I just really don't know what is the third one...)
-º tiger
-º dog
-º ??? (I thought it could be the monkey seal, but it's improbable...)
-º <u>maybe</u> rabbit
-º ox
-º boar
-º bird
-º rat
-Just to remember: it's just a hypothesis made by me, I can be wrong. Any doubt just watch episode 13. Bye --[[User:Rubião|Rubião]] February 21, 2010 (UTC)
-Someone's gotta change the Haku's seals part, because it makes people confused and think that the seals for the [[Demonic Ice Crystal Mirrors]] can be done with on hand, when it's actually the seals for [[Thousand Flying Water Needles of Death]] that can be used with one hand. --[[User:GoDai|GoDai]] ([[User talk:GoDai|talk]]) 03:06, March 23, 2010 (UTC)

-But the animal are from the china zodica. How are they relate to the mudras?????
-Mudras, or kuji-jin, are related to ninja and Hand Seals in Naruto. Hand Seals are basically based off the mudras. The Chinese Zodiac is also used in other Asian nations such as Korea and Japan, up to this day. For example, the video game Ōkami made use of the Chinese Zodiac. --[[User:GoDai|GoDai]] ([[User talk:GoDai|talk]]) 21:33, April 16, 2010 (UTC)

-Does it matter which hand goes over which hand, which hand's fingers are on the front, etc.? I think the manga sometimes shows the right hand over the left in Ram.{{Unsigned|GoDai}}

-Should we label how the seals are formed, such as "Index and middle finger raised, ring and little fingers interlocked" for Tiger? The bird seal has some inconsistencies throughout many articles. Also, is it important which hand is above which in hand seals, and/or is it something to do with being either left- or right-handed? --[[User:GoDai|GoDai]] ([[User talk:GoDai|talk]]) 22:21, April 23, 2010 (UTC)
-:I don't think it changes for right or left handedness. Not sure if it is necessary to say how they're formed if they're the ones in the image, just the non standard ones. [[User:Omnibender|Omnibender]] - [[User talk:Omnibender|Talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Omnibender|Contributions]] 22:25, April 23, 2010 (UTC)
-::It can be a little confusing if Kakashi is facing us instead of us looking at the back of the hand seals. For example, it is not clear for Bird/Rososter, as in Orochimaru's fight with the Third Hokage, I remember the bird seal being "Folded thumbs pressed together, index and middle fingers interlocked inwards, and the ring and little fingers raised," but according to the page of [[Shadow Sewing Technique]], Rooster is listed, and when it was used, it was "Thumbs pressed together, index and little fingers raised, and folded middle and folded ring fingers pressed together inwards." These may both seem the same at frontal view, but the folded fingers are different. --[[User:GoDai|GoDai]] ([[User talk:GoDai|talk]]) 22:36, April 23, 2010 (UTC)
-:::Out of the twelve standard ones, the bird is the only one that is difficult to see what it is when seen from the front. I thought the same as you about which fingers were up and down. If they're not the same, this can also be confused with the seal Choji uses for his expansion techniques. [[User:Omnibender|Omnibender]] - [[User talk:Omnibender|Talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Omnibender|Contributions]] 22:49, April 23, 2010 (UTC)
-::::Indeed. I think it is safe to assume the Second Hokage was using the bird seal, and the side view can be seen in that chapter. We know the seals for the [[Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique]], and I think he was using the last. --[[User:GoDai|GoDai]] ([[User talk:GoDai|talk]]) 05:04, April 24, 2010 (UTC)
-I found out that the [[Shadow Sewing Technique]] indeed uses the Bird seal, and the movie probably had a mix-up with another seal. The seal in side view is identical to the seal [[Tobirama Senju]] uses for the [[Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique]]. --[[User:GoDai|GoDai]] ([[User talk:GoDai|talk]]) 00:22, May 2, 2010 (UTC)
-I know this is an old conversation, but it seems some people do Bird with their middle and ring fingers folded, and some others fold there index and middle. Maybe it varies between techniques.[[User:ZPRN|ZPRN]] ([[User talk:ZPRN|talk]]) 19:07, December 7, 2010 (UTC)

-i keep seeing the images for how the monkey handseal looks and both the example ones and the one where naruto is doing it, its two hands of the same side you cant have your thumbs on the same side if you are putting your hands palms facing eachother (and they are, look at the fingernails) which they are in every picture i see. it doesnt particularly have anything to do with this article because its an illustrator error. but i just thought i'd note it cause no where have i seen anyone bring it up.

-== Eyes ==
-In Shippuden episode 191 Hanare was able to weave hand seals with her eyes. Is this a normal shinobi ability or a kekkei Genkai? Or something else {{unsigned|Otacon1514}}
-:Please sign your posts. Since this is an anime-only thing, I wouldn't worry too much about it. It is definitely not a kekkei genkai, because Kakashi was able to copy her technique with the Sharingan, which wouldn't be possible if this was a kekkei genkai.

-== Kisame uses one hand (Half Tiger) to initiate Water Release: Great Exploding Water Colliding Wave ==
-Looking at the manga, I find it very obvious that it's not a Ram, it's the Half Tiger (or Half Ram) when he uses Water Release: Great Exploding Water Colliding Wave. It's in chapter 471 page 15 in panels 7 and 8. His left arm is clearly still in his robe. On the page before that, his left arm starts merging with Samehada, and on the next page, it is still merging. That  means that there's no possible way his left arm was involved in the seal. So, it's obviously the Half Tiger or Half Ram.
-:I find the manga unreliable when it comes to claims of hands and uniqueness. If Kisame had the same one-handed capabilities as Haku then I think it would have received special attention, not a couple of panels of "is he or isn't he?". '''''~[[User:Snapper2|Snapper]][[User talk:Snapper2|T]][[Special:Contributions/Snapper2|o]]''''' 19:21, March 31, 2011 (UTC)
-::Anyways, Kakashi only made a big deal out of Haku's usage of one handed hand seals, despite the fact that Zabuza made a water clone with a single hand during their initial encounter. That implies that there's a difference.[[User:Ryne 91|Ryne 91]] ([[User talk:Ryne 91|talk]]) 19:24, March 31, 2011 (UTC)
-== Wrong naming of Certain Seals ==
-I would say just refer to chapter 503 of manga where Minato uses his dead demon seal
-Like the one which is shown as horse is actually bird
-The hare seal is actually the bird
-And the one which shown as the bird seal is actually Rooster seal

-== Anime hand seal sounds ==
-In the anime, each village apparently has a sound when they perform either a hand seal or a line of hand seals. Should this be mentioned (eg the anime-only characters Renga/Jiga/Ruiga had the Hidden Mist Village sound effect, probably suggesting they came from the Land of Water and so on) ? --[[User:Speysider|speysider]] ([[User talk:Speysider|talk]]) 17:40, January 31, 2012 (UTC)

---[[User:Elveonora|Elveonora]] ([[User talk:Elveonora|talk]]) 18:53, January 31, 2012 (UTC)
-Yup, the sounds exist. Just play back any time a ninja from the Leaf, Sand, Mist, Stone and such village uses hand seals to activate jutsu, there'll be a different sound effect for every one of them --[[User:Speysider|speysider]] ([[User talk:Speysider|talk]]) 18:56, January 31, 2012 (UTC)
-I never noticed a difference between villages, but sometimes, I can hear different sounds for different seals in the same technique during the same sequence for a single technique.

-The villages all have different sound effects, look back at some episodes like the Forest of Death section, which is a good example of multiple sound effects for each village. What do you mean by "I can hear different sounds for different seals in the same technique during the same sequence for a single technique." as it's quite a tongue-tie to say :P --[[User:Speysider|speysider]] ([[User talk:Speysider|talk]]) 20:29, January 31, 2012 (UTC)
-Say Jiraiya uses a technique which requires six hand seals. During the sequence of those six hand seals, even if the focus isn't on him (that being, he's offscreen), I can hear two or three different hand seal sounds. [[User:Omnibender|Omnibender]] - [[User talk:Omnibender|Talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Omnibender|Contributions]] 20:35, January 31, 2012 (UTC)
-Oh, when they are performing the seals themselves. That is standard between all the ninja, but each party has separate sounds. For a really obvious example, all Akatsuki members have the same sound effect when they finish their hand seal sequence for any jutsu they perform. The same is true for every other shinobi village. --[[User:Speysider|speysider]] ([[User talk:Speysider|talk]]) 20:40, January 31, 2012 (UTC)

-== Dodai's unique seal ==
-In chapter 555 Dodai uses a unique looking seal with his thumbs, index and pinkie fingers touching and middle and ring fingers curled up before casting his Rubber Ball jutsu.

-:: I'm not sure about that. It's very similar, but the bird seal has the middle and ring fingers locked together, while Dodai's middle and ring fingers aren't touching at all. The bird seal is also oriented differently, in the bird seal the pinky and pointer fingers point upwards while Dodai's are pointing forward, away from the body.
