Analysis Team

The Analysis Team (解析班, Kaisekihan ) is a is a subdivision of the Intelligence Division specialized in extracting information directly from the target's mind and memories using secret ninjutsu and machinery. It was previously led by Inoichi Yamanaka.

The Analysis Team only takes on interrogation tasks when the Torture and Interrogation Force have been unsuccessful in obtaining information from the target using their methods, whether because they have been rendered unconscious or because they have genjutsu traps inside their minds.

One of their members, Mawashi Dokuraku, is known as the Demon Sergeant of the Analysis Team (解析班の鬼軍曹, Kaisekihan no Onigunsō ) which may indicate his position within the team and his proficiency as an interrogator.

A separate team with forensic medical-nin from Konoha Hospital also participate by extracting information from corpses.

## Background [ ]

During Pain's Assault, Ibiki Morino was tasked to interrogate Yūdachi, an Amegakure shinobi used by the Akatsuki . Due to the multiple genjutsu traps placed inside his mind, Inoichi opted to extract intel from his mind using secret ninjutsu and the aid of the Analysis Team .

At the beginning of the Fourth Shinobi World War , a group of Konoha shinobi were forced to fight Kisame Hoshigaki . After capturing him, Aoba Yamashiro attempted to interrogate him to obtain information about the Akatsuki by reading his mind. Although he delved deeply into his mind to gain intel, Kisame forced himself outside the interrogation by biting his tongue. He avoided farther interrogation by committing suicide.

Two years later, a member of the Analysis Team interrogated Kido Tsumiki after Sakura Haruno defeated him .
