Sharingan

=The Sharingan=
==Introduction==
The Sharingan (写輪眼; Literally means "Rotating Copying Eye") is a dōjutsu kekkei genkai, which appears in some members of the Uchiha clan. Although its powers were first seen in Kaguya Ōtsutsuki, with the Rinne Sharingan, its true form first manifested in Indra Ōtsutsuki, the oldest ancestor of the Uchiha Clan, and later came to be regarded as one of the Three Great Dōjutsu (三大瞳術, Sandai Dōjutsu; Literally means "Three Great Eye Techniques"), along with the Byakugan and the Rinnegan.

The Sharingan's abilities consist of two parts: the "Eye of Perception" (洞察眼, Dōsatsugan) and the "Eye of Hypnotism" (催眠眼, Saimingan). The first ability of the Sharingan is able to see the flow of chakra. The Sharingan itself gives color to chakra, allowing the user to differentiate it. It is also able to tell if a person is under a genjutsu if the person's chakra flow is irregular. The second ability is the Sharingan's most important, granting the user incredible clarity of perception, allowing them to easily recognize genjutsu and different forms of chakra, though not to the same extent as Byakugan. This also allows the user to visualize subtle details, allowing them to know what the person is talking about by reading lip movement, and even allows them to be able to mimic pencil movements. When the Sharingan evolves, gaining more tomoe, this ability extends to the point where the user is able to track fast moving objects, before finally giving a certain amount of predictive capabilities to the user, allowing them to see one step ahead of their opponent's next move and thus being able to counter or dodge without any wasted movement. However, even though the user may be able to see an attack or know it is coming, their body does not always have time to react.

==User specific abilities==
* Itachi Uchiha: 
** Pain Manipulation (Via Demonic Illusion: Shackle StakesSha no Sho, Page 301, the victim experiences the illusion of physical pain, which makes this Jutsu effective for torture)
* Sasuke Uchiha: 
**Fear Manipulation (Sasuke can inflict crippling fearNaruto Chapter 301 into the likes of Sai, who lacks emotions, using his Sharingan)

==Izanami & Izanagi==
*Izanami: 
**Sense Manipulation and Enhanced Perception Manipulation with Izanami (At the cost of the eyesight of the Sharingan that cast it, the the IzanamiNaruto Chapter 586Naruto Chapter 587 allows the user to trap its victim in an infinite loop within their own mind. The user achieves this by "recording" an action in time, including the physical senses felt by both parties in said moment. The user then recreates that moment, and records it as well. At which point the victim is caught within the loop, with no chance of escaping except by accepting their own fate or surrendering to the reality they attempted to reject. This genjutsu does not require eye contact, or even for the victim to have eyesight, for it to activate. Additionally, the victim is completely helpless and paralyzed outside the loop)
*Izanagi: 
**Subjective Reality (At the cost of the eyesight of the Sharingan that cast it, the IzanagiNaruto Chapter 479 can rid the user of anything disadvantageous, such as injury or death, by casting an illusion on the user and turning their unwanted reality into a dream or illusion; however, anything advantageous such as the user's own attacks remain. The Jutsu normally only lasts for a few seconds; however, it is possible to extend its duration by implanting Hashirama Senju's cells. It is also possible to delay the Jutsu's effect)
==Weaknesses==
The Sharingan's ability to copy Ninjutsu, Genjutsu, and Taijutsu is limited by the user's physical conditionRin no Sho, pages 192-193, that is to say that the user needs to be physically capable of performing the technique they are trying to replicate. They need to meet any physical or chakra amount prerequisites the technique in question may have. This ability is also incapable of replicating Kekkei Genkai, due to either not possessing the genetic predisposition and/or having the necessary chakra natures. Naturally, the user also needs to actually see the technique they are attempting to copy, meaning they cannot copy something they did not see or is obscured from their line of sight. In fact, the same can be said for essentially all of the Sharingan's abilities; they are sight based abilities, so if the opponent can obscure the user's vision using extremely thick mist/dustNaruto Chapter 26 or blind them, the Sharingan's abilities will be rendered useless. Likewise if the opponent is too fast for the Sharingan to visually keep track of them, they will be safe from its abilities. Sharingan Genjutsu requires eye contact, so if the opponent is able to avoid eye contact or is blind, they will be able to avoid Sharingan Genjutsu entirely. Finally, the Sharingan's predictive capabilities can be somewhat circumvented by attacks that have little to no pattern, such as Naruto's chakra armsNaruto Chapter 231 that emerge from any part of his body and attack instinctively.
=The Mangekyō Sharingan=
==Introduction==
The Mangekyō Sharingan is awakened through the trauma experienced from the death of a person very close to the user of the Sharingan. With the user usually having to witness or experience this first hand, throughout history various Uchiha have killed the people closest to them in order to expedite this process. To obtain the Mangekyō Sharingan, one must feel the emotion of losing a friend or family member, such as merely killing them or watching them die not being enough to awaken it.

It is distinguished from a normal Sharingan by its appearance, which changes the shape of the tomoe seal. Unlike the Sharingan, the appearance of the Mangekyō Sharingan differs from user to user with all known users of the dōjutsu having eyes that resemble variations of windpipes; a rare form is a variation known as the "Straight Tomoe" (直巴, Choku Tomoe), which seems to grant fluidity to its user's movements during combat.

==The Susano'o==
*General Abilities: 
**Aura (The Susano'o creates a protective auraNaruto Chapter 601 around its user)
**Soul Manipulation and Non-Physical Interaction (Users of Susano'o can interact with the soul, as the Susano'o is a physical manifestation of their chakraSha no Sho, Page 274, or soul. Susano'o can also wield spirit weapons, which have no physical formSha no Sho, Page 275Naruto Chapter 392)
**Weapon Creation (The Susano'o can create various weapons made of chakra such as bladesNaruto Chapter 465, shieldsNaruto Chapter 479, and Yasaka MagatamaNaruto Chapter 551)
**Forcefield Creation (The Susano'o forms as a barrier around the userNaruto Chapter 477 in order to shield them from external attacks)
**Large Size (The Susano'o's size VariesNaruto Chapter 392Naruto Chapter 464Naruto Chapter 465Naruto Chapter 477Naruto Chapter 551Naruto Chapter 560Naruto Chapter 588 from Type 0 to Type 1) with Susano'o

*Perfect Susano'o with wings: 
**Flight (Winged Perfect Susano'o can flyNaruto Chapter 677Naruto Chapter 688)
==User specific abilities==
*Kakashi Hatake's MS Abilities: 
**Spatial Manipulation, Durability Negation, BFR, and Sealing (Kakashi's KamuiSha no Sho, Pages 240-241 forms a spatial barrier in the user's line of sight that wrinkles and sucks anything caught in it into a different, sealed, dimension)
**Teleportation and Dimensional Travel (Kakashi's Kamui is capable of teleporting the user in and out ofNaruto Chapter 609Naruto Chapter 655Naruto Chapter 674 the Kamui dimension)
*Obito Uchiha's MS Abilities: 
**Spatial Manipulation, BFR, Teleportation and Dimensional Travel (Obito's Kamui has two distinct, yet closely related, abilities. The first one allows the user to transport objects in close proximity into the Kamui dimension. The user can transport themselves into the dimension to escape attacks or perform instant teleportationNaruto Chapter 396, or suck other objects or peopleNaruto Chapter 475Naruto Chapter 596 into Kamui. They can also eject people or objectsNaruto Chapter 475Naruto Chapter 598, such as weapons, from the Kamui dimension. The second ability allows the user to simulate "intangibility". Once activated, Kamui automaticallyJin no Sho, Page 242 allows parts of their body to slip into the Kamui dimension, making them seemingly "phase" through physical objects and attacksNaruto Chapter 597)
**Kamui's Weaknesses: The user can't perform physical attacks or teleportNaruto Chapter 510 while this ability is active, and must deactivate it to do so. The user's ability to teleport objects to the Kamui dimension is faster than their ability to transport themselves. Additionally, this ability can only be used continuously for 5 minutesNaruto Chapter 510, after which there is a short recharge period.
*Itachi Uchiha's MS Abilities: 
**Limited Durability Negation, Enhanced Fire Manipulation, and Non-Physical Interaction with Amaterasu (The user spawns inextinguishable black flames on their target as long as it's in their line of sightNaruto Chapter 389Naruto Chapter 390. The flames give off incredible heatNaruto Chapter 391Naruto Chapter 582, which have been described to be as hot as the sunTō no Sho, Page 200, are capable of instantly vaporizing steelNaruto Gaiden, Chapter 9, and are capable of burning the flameproof innards of a Rock ToadNaruto Chapter 148. Amaterasu is capable of harmingNaruto Chapter 415 opponents far aboveNaruto Chapter 634 the user's level of power, and have been repeatedly referred to as the most powerful offensive techniqueNaruto Chapter 389Naruto Chapter 582 possessed by the Mangekyō Sharingan. The flames will continue to burn until their target is turned to ashNaruto Chapter 390, even when completely submerged in water, or if their target happens to be other flamesNaruto Chapter 389)
**Enhanced Perception Manipulation, Illusion Creation, Memory Manipulation, and Mind Manipulation with Tsukuyomi (TsukuyomiNaruto Chapter 389Tō no Sho, Pages 252-253Naruto Chapter 478 is one of the most powerful Mangekyō Sharingan genjutsu due to its ability to provide the user with complete control over the mental world of Tsukuyomi. This complete control extends over time, matter, and gravity, and allows the user to completely manipulate the victim's sense of time. 72 hours of continuous torture within Tsukuyomi could take less than a moment in the real world, which makes the Jutsu almost impossible to anticipate or counter, and leads to the complete breakdown of the psyche. At its peak, the time that passed within Tsukuyomi was one one-hundredth of one one-thousandth of one one-millionth of that of the real world. Itachi was able to use this extreme time dilation to make Izumi live though decades of her life in seconds until she died of old age within the illusion, which caused her physical body to die as wellItachi Shinden: Book of Dark Night, Chapter 5. The visions the victim sees are completely up to the caster. They can live through hellish tortureNaruto Chapter 142, horrific memoriesNaruto Chapter 147, or a peaceful fantasy to name a few)
**Reactive Evolution and Power Nullification with the Yata Mirror (It can change every one of its properties in order to match those of other attacks, allowing it to nullify them, whether the attacks are physical or spiritualSha no Sho, Page 275)
**Sealing, BFR, and Illusion Creation with the Totsuka Blade (The Totsuka Blade is an ethereal weapon imbued with a Sealing Jutsu. Once it pierces its target, it seals their bodies and souls into a genjutsu world of drunken dreams for all eternitySha no Sho, Page 275. Orochimaru, who had been sealed by the blade, was said to have had his presence completely erased from the Ninja WorldJin no Sho, Page 72)
*Sasuke Uchiha's MS Abilities: 
**Limited Durability Negation, Enhanced Fire Manipulation, and Non-Physical Interaction with Amaterasu and Enton (The user spawns inextinguishable black flames on their target as long as it's in their line of sightNaruto Chapter 389Naruto Chapter 390. The flames give off incredible heatNaruto Chapter 391Naruto Chapter 582, which have been described to be as hot as the sunTō no Sho, Page 200, are capable of instantly vaporizing steelNaruto Gaiden, Chapter 9, and are capable of burning the flameproof innards of a Rock ToadNaruto Chapter 148. Amaterasu is capable of harmingNaruto Chapter 415 opponents far aboveNaruto Chapter 634 the user's level of power, and have been repeatedly referred to as the most powerful offensive techniqueNaruto Chapter 389Naruto Chapter 582 possessed by the Mangekyō Sharingan. The flames will continue to burn until their target is turned to ashNaruto Chapter 390, even when completely submerged in water, or if their target happens to be other flamesNaruto Chapter 389. Additionally, Sasuke can manipulate Amaterasu's shape for offensive and defensive purposes with Enton)
*Shisui Uchiha's MS Abilities: 
**Enhanced Mind Manipulation and Memory Manipulation with Kotoamatsukami (KotoamatsukamiJin no Sho, Page 252Naruto Chapter 459Naruto Chapter 550 is regarded as the most powerful Mangekyō Sharingan genjutsu of all. It allows its user to assume perfect control of their victim without them realizing they're being controlled. It achieves this by implanting false phantom experiences and thoughts into the user's mind that they mistake for their own, and makes it so they genuinely believe that the user's commands are their own independent thoughts. Additionally, this genjutsu does not require direct eye contact with its victim)
**Kotoamatsukami's weaknesses: The Jutsu can only be used once each ten years, per eye, unless the user possesses Hashirama Senju's cells.
*Shin Uchiha's MS Abilities: 
**Weapon Control (Shin's Mangekyō Sharingan ability allows him to telekinetically control weapons that he's physically markedNaruto Gaiden Chapter 6)
**Teleportation and BFR (Shin's clone's Mangekyō Sharingan is capable of teleporting himself and othersNaruto Gaiden Chapter 6)
**Minor Cyborgization (Shin can use his Weapon Control to create functioning limbsNaruto Gaiden Chapter 6)
**Minor Paralysis Inducement (Once embedded into someone, Shin's weapons can inhibit their movementsNaruto Gaiden Chapter 6)
==Weaknesses==
The Mangekyō Sharingan offers far more power than the regular Sharingan, but that power comes at a cost. More powerful techniques entail a far higher chakra cost, making Mangekyō Sharingan Jutsu extremely taxing to use and maintain. Additionally, the Mangekyō Sharingan also causes great strain on the user's vision, eventually resulting in complete blindness with continuous use. The Susano'o causes its user immense pain "in every cell in their body".
=The Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan=
By transplanting the Mangekyō Sharingan from an Uchiha with strong blood ties to the recipient - with the ideal being a sibling - an Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan (永遠の万華鏡写輪眼, Eien no Mangekyō Sharingan) can be created. This process takes a few days for complete recovery, and not only permanently restores the recipient's sight, but also strengthens his own eye power with that of the donor, symbolized by the interconnected appearance of the tomoe seals of his Mangekyō Sharingan. Due to the compatibility issues and rarity of the Mangekyō Sharingan, not everyone can obtain these benefits by transplanting the eyes of just any Uchiha, which has been the cause of many futile sacrifices throughout the history of the Uchiha clan. To date, only Madara and Sasuke are known to have succeeded in this endeavor.

Madara and Sasuke were able to evolve their respective Mangekyō Eternal Sharingan into the Rinnegan. Madara succeeded after implanting Hashirama Senju's DNA into himself, although the dōjutsu did not awaken until years after the implantation. Sasuke awakened his when Hagoromo Ōtsutsuki gave the young Uchiha his dōjutsu powers and half of his chakra.
