Main text
Page 1
As a ninja, she still doesn't have any remarkable feats under her belt, but even Kakashi acknowledges her latent ability. Chakra control, genjutsu, her display of knowledge during the Chuunin exams: she's shown shining potential in a fairly wide array of competences. Should she develop them, she might become a threat even to the great Sasuke! She's also the one in Kakashi's team who reins in the two hot-headed types that are Sasuke and Naruto, like an older sister looking after a mischievous little boy (ahem*).
Page 2
[Resolution]
Girly though Sakura usually is, she also has her moments as far as spirit is concerned. One must be strong deep down to the core to be a ninja, and this is something she fully understands.
[Inner Sakura]
Sakura has another self on the inside: the Inner Sakura. The sudden outbreaks of Sakura's fascinating, dual nature are an entertaining phenomenon. Now Sakura and her "Shannaro!" line are synonymous of each other. Anybody would cower before such vehemence.
[Sasuke]
She's been harboring an unrequited love for Sasuke since early childhood. At the same time, she handles the rigorous, daily life of missions and practice, and she loves with every fiber of her being. She probably exemplifies what an ideal young woman would be like. Even here on this picture, there's no refraining from cheering for her!
[Naruto]
Sakura herself doesn't really know how she feels about Naruto. Her great love is Sasuke, but it should be noticed she also looks Naruto's way... We can't talk about love for the moment, but who knows?! It might happen.
Page 3
[Encounter]
You can't speak of Sakura without mentioning Ino. The two of them met at the ninja Academy. Sakura was bullied as a child. Ino protected her, and talked to her with words of strength and kindness. For this, Sakura would look up to her. Whatever self-confidence Sakura's ever had as a person and a girl, she owes it to Ino's support.
[A Fated Battle]
Close friends though they might have been, things changed completely once they found themselves out to be rivals in love. Rivals who would bicker whenever they met. There was something genial about those quarrels, though. During the Chuunin exam, the foreordained crossing of swords between the two takes place at last. The intricate confrontation between their various, respective feelings ends up in a draw. Rivals till the very end, best friends till the very end.
[The Pledge]
One day, Sakura returned the ribbon she'd received from Ino. Then, they acknowledged their conditions as each other's true rival. This pledge would put an end to a lukewarm relationship, and tie the bonds of an everlasting friendship...!!

Total Ability: 2/5
Potential Ability: 4/5
Luck: 3/5
As one might expect from a young girl, she doesn't have much in the way of physical strength. Her chakra control and intelligence however, are nothing to look down upon. *The Japanese text has a question mark between parentheses. The author is "seriously doubting" (as in, humorously) what he wrote about Sakura being the level-headed member of the group.
**See DB 1: Shintenshin no jutsu.

The kind and gentle dancing fighter* with feelings for Naruto
Because... This is my Nindou** too
Although she is a heir to the renowned Hyuuga Main House, she is full of compassion, and dislikes competition and fighting: such is Hinata's personality. Currently, her father has given up of her, and she is assigned to difficult missions as a Genin. Even being in that dire situation hasn't broken her, she hasn't lost that kindness of hers, and that's because Naruto was there, inside her heart. And now, Hinata is strengthening herself, soundly and steadily.
-Hinata's fighting ability was found lacking by the Hyuuga clan. But her latent potential is quite conspicuous, so development is to be expected in the future.
-Hinata is a shy and withdrawn person who can't do anything in front of her dear Naruto. Something she's been constantly wishing to change about herself.

Timidity and hesitation, unease and nervousness... An ebbing and flowing love story
[Attack]
Hinata is in love with Naruto, but regardless, she can't take a step forward. However, she's able to pluck up her own brand of courage sometimes, as proved by that "attack" of hers. Because that's her Way of the Ninja**...?!
↑She can't even look Naruto in the eyes as she hands him the ointment to treat the injuries he's received during the Chuunin exam, but she's put all her strength into this...!
[Naruto and Herself]
There's a definite reason behind Hinata's passion for Naruto. She wants "to become like him". Shackled by the strict laws of the Hyuuga clan, and further weakened by her inferiority complex towards her younger sister, Hinata is always seeking strength and power.
↑Hinata is never assertive about anything, something she tends to hate about herself.
↑When she was fighting Neji, no matter how many times she was struck down, she would think of Naruto and stand up...!
→Hinata admires and esteems Naruto. But he is totally clueless about those feelings.
The one she admires taught her about the courage to stand up!!
Chuunin Exam; Third Preliminary Test
Her fight against Neji
The time had finally come to fight against Neji, from the Branch House, and hater of the Main House. Hinata disliked conflict, despite which she fought desperately in order to change herself. But as expected, she was no match for Neji, whom people refer to as the strongest in the Hyuuga clan, (tn: The next sentences I can't read properly, let alone understand. But it's about how she didn't abandon until the end thanks to Naruto).
↑Naruto is throwing taunts at Neji. Hinata is able to draw courage from his cheering...
↑A scene where she even fights on par with the great Neji. The blood of the Hyuuga also flows is Hinata's veins!
→But she yields before Neji's Juuken, and gets wounded and beaten down several times over...
←Earnest feelings are stronger than any weapon... *No furigana, so I can't be 100% sure, but it's got to be a pun. Cause 武闘 doesn't mean anything, at least not as far as I (and my dictionary) can tell. Now, if you play around with the way those Kanji can be pronounced, you get "butou", which translates as "dancing".
**Nindou=Way of the Ninja.

Main text
The legendary monstrous fox who single-handedly drove the hidden village of Konoha, where elite ninjas are gathered, to annihilation. The Hokage of the time - Yondaime - sacrificed himself to seal it into Naruto, then a freshly born baby*, bringing the incident to a conclusion... Then before anyone knew, the sealed Nine-Tailed Demon Fox** showed itself in response to Naruto's anger, bestowing his enormous chakra upon him. Except that chakra has a stringent feeling of wickedness about it...!! However: why did the Demon Fox assault the Leaf village? What his intentions were is a complete mystery...
Captions
-Gwwahahahahahahaaaa. Some guts, you got there!
-The legendary Demon Fox who drove the Leaf village to its destruction twelve years ago!!
Picture comments
-They even say of him that one swing of his tail can shatter mountains and conjure tsunamis!!
-For now, he is sealed inside of Naruto.
-Kyuubi's chakra is displaying a mere portion of his grim and sinister form!! *Given the absence of pronunciation hint, the Kanji used can be pronounced either as the straightforward "baby", or as the archaic word for "imperial child". Intriguing, since another spelling exists, without the ambiguity. Maybe a way to foreshadow the fact that Naruto was the Fourth's son?
**I recommend looking around for the Greek etymology of the word " demon", as it's probably closer to the Japanese meaning than the word's modern interpretation.
Databook 1 p.120
Main text
Going back twelve years, the Hidden Leaf village was stricken by the greatest of plagues: an attack by the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox*. The one who put an end to this unprecedented crisis was the Hokage of the time, Yondaime, who exhausted his power sealing the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox in a newborn baby's - Naruto's - navel. There are but a scant few chapters recounting anything at all about Yondaime. But going by the fact that he summoned Gamabunta, and that his name is still on the lips of many people to this very day, one gathers he was a figure who possessed enourmous strength as well as popularity.
Caption
-The village's hero, the one who sealed the Nine-Tailed Fox away.
Picture comment
-It would seem Jiraiya - referred to as one of the Sannin and praised for his skill - and Yondaime were acquainted.
-Gamabunta, who works hand in hand with Jiraiya only, also had a contract with Yondaime. *See Databook 1: Kyuubi no Youko

Databook 1 p. 218
KEKKEI GENKAI; Byakugan
Users: Hyuuga Neji, Hyuuga Hinata
Supplementary; Close, Medium, Long Ranges; Rank: none
Main text
The Hyuuga clan is a distinguished family, and one of the Hidden Leaf village's two brightest jewels, the other being the Uchiha clan. The Kekkei Genkai that circulates within House Hyuuga is the Byakugan. Upon using Byakugan, the caster sees right through immediate obstacles, even catching a glance upon things situated remotely ahead of them. But Byakugan possesses an even more astonishing ability. It can also distinguish the inner body's "acupuncture network" through which chakra circulates, and the apertures though which it is released outside the body, the "chakra openings". Because of that ability, the Hyuuga are praised as the clan which has the most outstanding ability. That said, this is also the reason why they have accumulated tragedies throughout their history...
Caption
-The heritage of the Hyuuga clan, the white eyes that see through everything!!
Picture comments
-When Byakugan is activated, it is so powerful it causes the veins around the caster's eyes to protrude!
-How exactly does chakra circulate inside the body...? If one has the power of the Byakugan, even such a thing can be understood just like that, with absurd ease.
Databook 1 p.207
NINJUTSU; Daisan no Me (The Third Eye)
User: Gaara
Supplementary; Rank: none
Main text
A peculiar ninjutsu of Gaara's. With chakra, he connects a sand-made eye to his optic nerve, which enables him to know what happens in the sand eye's field of vision. This is genuinely a third eye for its caster.
Caption
-The sand-generated eye dances in the air and grasps everything.
Picture comments
-The eye of sand floats, while connected to the optic nerve.
-During the Chuunin exam's first test, Gaara employed this jutsu to cheat.
Databook 1 p.211
NINJUTSU; Doton: Dochuu Eigyou no jutsu (Earth Release: Underground Fishlike Projection technique)
Users: Kagari, Oboro, etc...
Supplementary; Rank: C
Main text
A ninjutsu where one suddenly appears to the ground's surface. Its efficiency will increase drastically if used in conjunction with a jutsu such as an Oboro Bunshin (Mist Clone) to draw the enemy's attention. Furthermore, it's even more efficient when employed in a crowded area that, if the target notices something, can be overrun by the nearby masses... A likely resort. Used quite often for things such as personality assassination.
Caption
-Striking and sneaking silently, like a fish underwater.
Picture comment
-The army approaches stealthily, without a noise... Such is the ultimate strategy for a guerrilla.
Databook 1 p.210
NINJUTSU; Doton: Shinchuu Zanshu no jutsu (Earth Release: Double-Suicide Decapitation)
User: Hatake Kakashi
Supplementary; Close range, Rank: D
Main text
A ninjutsu where the caster, conceals themselves underground, drags the object of their attack down into the earth, robbing them of their freedom, in addition to which they can start to attack. Kakashi used it against Sasuke, who lay motionless where he'd been drawn into the ground, at which point this jutsu was originally used to for torture, by cutting into the enemy's neck.
Caption
-Pulling someone into the ground and aiming for their head!!
Picture comment
-Sasuke has been turned into a living head. Quite predictably, he can't do much besides acknowledging his own helplessness. Barring the magical elements, this jutsu was clearly inspired by an actual method of execution used in ancient Japan. The victim would be buried neck-deep into the ground, at which point any kind of nastiness could be inflicted upon them, from leaving them there to rot to cutting their neck... With a saw... Charming, eh?
Databook 1 p.219
NINJUTSU; Fuuton: Daitoppa (Extraordinary Charge)
User: Orochimaru
Offensive; Close, Medium ranges, Rank: C
Main text
This is a relatively simple jutsu that creates a sudden gust of wind, but its scale varies greatly depending on the caster. And if used by a superior shinobi, it has enough destructive power to knock down a large tree. Naturally, when Orochimaru used it, it became a violent gale that blew off everything in his line of sight.
Caption
-The wind from the squall blows away all things in one's line of sight!!
Picture comments
-The hurricane that assaulted Naruto and his companions was caused by a ninjutsu.
-The wind breathed through the mouth is amplified. This jutsu is more advanced than it looks.
Databook 1 p.216
KEKKEI GENKAI; Taijutsu: Hakkeshou Kaiten (Titanic Revolution* of the Eight Trigrams Palm)
User: Hyuuga Neji
Defensive; Close range; Rank: none
Main text
A taijutsu where one releases a large amount of chakra from their body's chakra openings to catch the blows from an enemy's attacks, while making one's body spin to repel them. A secret transmitted by oral tradition within the Hyuuga's Main House, though Hyuuga Neji came up with it own his own, despite him being from the Branch House. It stands in the same league as Gaara's Sand as an ultimate protection, and was even called "the other Absolute Defense". This is the high grade taijutsu that made Neji's prodigious talent known during the Chuunin exam.
Caption
-An application of Juuken, the other "Absolute Defense"!!
Picture comment
-The Byakugan's near-360° field of vision perceives the enemy's attack, and here comes the Kaiten...!! *"Kaiten" means "spinning" or "revolution". Except the author swapped the "ten" Kanji for another, changing the meaning to "monumental task". Taken separately, the words could be translated as "Heavenly Spin". So I translated the thing as "Titanic Revolution" to somehow squeeze in all those meanings, as the "monumental" and "godly" meanings are both carried in the word "titan".
Databook 1 p.170
TAIJUTSU; Kage Buyou (Shadow Dancing Leaf)
User: Rock Lee, Uchiha Sasuke
Supplementary; Close range; Rank: C
Main text
A jutsu where one follows the opponent, closely matching their body's movement, just like a leaf that dances in the air is followed by its shadow. This move by itself is harmless, but it is usable as a stepping stone for a great many powerful jutsu like Omote Renge (Front Lotus) and so forth. That said, it also has a rather high degree of difficulty, and by the looks of things, those among the Genin class who can manage a flawless use of this high-grade taijutsu would be the likes of Lee, Sasuke, or Neji.
Captions
-The perfect dance of pursuit no one escapes from!!
Picture comment
-At that point, Lee physically restrains the opponent by binding them and switch to Omote Renge!
Databook 1 p.171
NINJUTSU; Hiden; Kage Mane no jutsu (Arcane; Shadow Imitation technique)
User: Nara Shikamaru
Supplementary; Close, Medium ranges; Rank: none
Main text
An odd ninjutsu that allows to extend one's own shadow, attach it to that of an enemy, thanks to which one can have the adversary mirror one's own movements. It was originally thought out somewhere in Konoha's region as a way to capture deers for their antlers. From there, it was treated as an Arcane move, and transmitted to the following generations. Normally, since the caster cannot broaden the area covered by their own shade, there's also a limit to how much the shadow can be expanded. However, the shadows between the enemy and oneself can also be employed to some extent. This most convenient and useful ninjutsu can even be used for escape purposes.
Caption
-The devilish shade takes hold of the enemy's body!!
Picture comment
-As observable here, Kage Mane no jutsu can force even the scariest of enemies into a funny stance.
-This technique can be quite powerful, depending on how one uses it!! A tailor-made jutsu for someone as brainy as Shikamaru.
Databook 1 p.169
NINJUTSU; Kage Shuriken no jutsu (Shadow Shuriken technique)
User: Uchiha Sasuke
Offensive; Medium, Long ranges; Rank: D
Main text
It's an extremely simple jutsu where two shuriken are piled one onto another and thrown simultaneously. However, depending on the way it's used, it can prove its absolute efficiency! The trick is to somehow draw the enemy's attention towards the upper shuriken. Then, to deal with the path of the lower shuriken. If the enemy notices both shuriken, the technique ends up losing all of its efficiency.
Caption
-An unexpected assault coming from a blind spot!!
Picture comment
-Sasuke is pulling off an advanced Kage Shuriken with this here "Shadow Windmill".
Databook 1 p.176
NINJUTSU; Kamaitachi no jutsu (Kamaitachi* technique)
User: Temari
Offensive; Close, Medium ranges; Rank: C
Main text
This is Temari's forte, an impressive feat where she manipulates the windstorm created with her large fan, brutally forcing a large number of wind currents together, and creating a vacuum. Those engulfed in the windstorm are assaulted with countless, invisible blades hacking away at their bodies. In addition, the wind's mighty force will completely repel incoming projectiles, and the opponent isn't even allowed to stand properly.
Caption
-A whirlwind of blades dubbed with a suspicious name*!!
Picture comment
-The air turbulence slashes at large surfaces. Its sound is quite the same as that of sharp, pointed cutlery...! (tn: the second sentence has an illegible Kanji, so the sentence is incomplete) *Japanese folklore. "Kamaitachi"="Sickle-Weasel". A trio of lightning-fast weasels. The first knocks you down, the second hacks away at you, and the third staunches the bleeding, leaving you with large and painful, but bloodless wounds and no idea of where they come from.
Databook 1 p.176
NINJUTSU; Kanashibari no jutsu (Temporary Paralysis technique)
Users: Orochimaru; ANBU, etc...
Supplementary; Close, Medium ranges; Rank: D
Main text
A jutsu for physical restraint, quite as if the opponent had been tied in invisible steel ropes. This is a basic ninjutsu usable even by Genin classes, but its intensity will vary greatly according to the caster's level. In addition, depending on the caster, the jutsu can be cast on every target at once, and won't fail a shinobi during his missions.
Caption
-The immobility jutsu that binds with an invisible force.
Picture comment
-Before this jutsu, even the giant tigers that showed up in the Forest of Death became incapable of movement, down to their whiskers.
Databook 1 p.172
GENJUTSU; Kasumi Juusha no jutsu (Foggy Attendants technique)
User: Mubi
Supplementary; Rank: D
Main text
The somber, uncanny shinobi phantoms appear out of trees and rocks one after the other, cornering the enemy. They all move sluggishly, but each time one of them receives a blow it multiplies, making the fog-dwelling ghost part quite the real article. There's definitely no escape from those black shinobi phantoms...
Caption
-The tenebrous phantoms arise from the fog and multiply endlessly!!
Picture comment
-The black phantoms are slow, but they will multiply, of that one can be certain (tn: the sentence is incomplete, cause one of the Kanji was illegible)!! This kunai attack adds to their numbers. A really tough fight for Naruto's group!!
Databook 1 p.174
NINJUTSU; Katon: Goukakyuu no jutsu (Fire Release: Hulking Fireball technique)
User: Uchiha Sasuke
Offensive; Close range; Rank: C
Main text
A jutsu where the chakra kneaded inside the body is converted into fire, and expelled forward in a massive orb of roaring flame. The scope of the attack is altered by controlling the volume of chakra that is mustered. The blazes, released with a thunderous roar will engulf their target, and leave a crater on the ground's surface. That's how terrifying they are...!!
Caption
-The massive flame engulfs and vaporizes everything!!
Picture comment
-The seals to activate it are Uma (Horse) and Tora (Tiger). Sasuke already has the skill to handle that advanced technique.
Databook 1 p.174
NINJUTSU; Katon: Housenka no jutsu (Fire Release: Incendiary Balsam Dehiscence technique/Flames of the Firebird Sage technique*)
User: Uchiha Sasuke
Offensive; Close range; Rank: C
Main text
Just like a balsam bursts open when touched, the flames spat out of the caster's mouth will fly wildly in every direction, assaulting the enemy!! In addition, the flames are controlled one by one with chakra, so avoiding them all is extremely, distressingly difficult. This jutsu is a beautiful thing to see, but it hides fierce might and power.
Caption
-A dehiscence of raging flames, the fiery petals dance into the air!!
Picture comment
-He conceals a shuriken among the rampaging flames... Together with those flames, the shuriken is also controlled through chakra. *Yet another headache-inducing pun by Kishi. Written normally, 鳳仙花 (housenka) means "balsam", like the flower. The "ka" for "flower" has been replaced by the "ka" for "fire". "Dehiscence" is the scientific word to describe the way a balsam brutally releases its pollen into the atmosphere, and Sasuke's technique is clearly based upon that. In addition, if you take them literally, the kanji for "balsam" can more or less be rendered as "Flower of the Firebird Sage".
Databook 1 p.175
NINJUTSU; Katon: Ryuuka no jutsu (Dragonfire technique)
User: Uchiha Sasuke
Offensive; Mid-range; Rank: C
Main text
Quite like the flames spat out by a dragon, the innumerable blazes rush forward in a straight line, seizing the enemy and combusting them entirely...!! If Goukakyuu engulfs the enemy in raging flames, in the case of Ryuuka, a sharp fire targets and assaults the enemy's upper body just like a projectile weapon. Making use of his Sharingan with the Ryuuka, Sasuke lands a remarkable hit in Orochimaru's face.
Caption
-The swift flames assault in a straight line!!
Picture comments
-Between the fingers he used to form his seals he holds a string which the flames use as a conduct wire to swiftly run towards the enemy...!!
-Even a master like Orochimaru was unable to avoid the technique although he'd noticed its activation!!
Databook 1 p.172
NINJUTSU; Kaze no Yaiba (Air Blade)
User: Baki
Offensive; Close, Medium ranges; Rank: A
Main text
This is Baki's pinpoint slashing strike, where he emits chakra from his fingertips and materializes it into an invisible sword that assaults the enemy in a gust of wind!! If Kamaitachi no jutsu can be regarded as [a swarm of] Wind kunai, then this jutsu is an uncatchable, unavoidable longsword.
Caption
-Behold the blade-like squall!!
Picture comment
-Before this invisible blade, even Gekkou Hayate, from the elite boasted by Konoha was cast down, unable to perform any technique at all.
Databook 1 p.179
NINJUTSU; Kirigakure no jutsu (Kirigakure's Mist Dissimulation technique*)
User: Momochi Zabuza
Supplementary; Rank: D
Main text
This displacement jutsu is a specialty of Hidden Mist shinobi, where one causes a mist to spring forth by lifting up some water, then goes in and out of sight at will from within the pearly-white realm. The mist's thickness is controled by the amount of chakra kneaded into it. Making a liberal use of this, Zabuza carried out a great many assassinations, and was dreaded as the"Prodigy of Silent Murder".
Caption
-The Mist settles... Only dead bodies remain...
Picture comment
-Silently he vanishes, and silently he reappears...!! Only death awaits those the mist has dispossessed of their field of vision... *Not really a pun, but the name doubles up with that of Zabuza's home village. By the same token, you could probably create a Wind jutsu and call it the US Air Force, or something...:P
Databook 1 p.185
TAIJUTSU; Konoha Reppuu (Konoha Gale)
User: Rock Lee
Offensive; Close range; Rank: D
Main text
This jutsu is a good example of how even simple taijutsu can become a pre-eminently destructive, lethal technique. The move here is a simple rear spinning low kick, but Lee's speed and power, make it mighty enough to send a large adult flying as if they weighed nothing. The goal is to throw the enemy off balance, and deal damage to the lower half of their body.
Captions
-A rear spinning low kick delivered with inhuman speed!!
-This power can send someone flying!!
Picture comment
-Konoha Reppuu is a rear spinning low kick (tn: Chuck Norris, Yay!) that's almost invisible, thus making defense quite an ordeal.
-Witness the power of a blow that propels the enemy several meters forward.
Databook 1 p.184
TAIJUTSU; Konoha Senpuu (Konoha Whirlwind)
User: Rock Lee
Offensive; Close range; Rank: D
Main text
A taijutsu where one launches a succession of high kicks and low kicks. Lee's version involves an ultra-fast rear spinning high kick (tn: roundhouse kick FTW!) with the left, the rotating motion of which is used for a spinning low kick with the right. Firstly, the opponent's evasion margin is restrained upon seeing the high kick, thus augmenting the chances for the low kick to hit the mark. So originally the high kick is little more than a feint, but when Lee does it, even his high kick is a destructive weapon, fatally wounding the average ninja who gets hit by it.
Caption
-A chain attack that switches from high to low!!
-Threatening speed even Sharingan can't see through!!
Picture comment
-He crouches to avoid the high kick, but the low kick is there waiting for him...!
-Even Sasuke is painfully defeated by this taijutsu.
Databook 1 p.181
NINJUTSU; Kuchiyose: Doton: Tsuiga no jutsu (Summoning: Earth Release: Tracking Fangs technique)
User: Hatake Kakashi
Offensive; Close, Medium, Long ranges; Rank: B
Main text
A high-grade tracking-offensive ninjutsu where one calls upon Ninja Hounds with a Summoning, so they can tail the target from undergound and assault it simultaneously with their fangs. Even Zabuza, who had concealed himself in a thick mist was unable to escape the sense of smell of the Ninja Hounds called forth by Kakashi, and was forced into revealing himself...!!
Caption
-The invisible enemy is captured thanks to the sense of smell!!
Picture comment
-Even with the power of Zabuza, the Prodigy of Silent Murder, getting away is impossible.
Databook 1 p.222
GENJUTSU; Magen: Narakumi no jutsu (Demonic Illusion: Brimstone Visions of Tartarus technique*)
User: Hatake Kakashi
Supplementary; Close range; Rank: D
Main text
Whether they are aware of it or not themselves doesn't matter: pictured in the bottom of their hearts, everyone has an image of the one thing they least want to ever see. This genjutsu is a technique that draws forth such an image from within the heart and has one mistake it for reality. In other words, if the mental image is a gruesome one, the shock will be accordingly great.
Caption
-This jutsu reveals the fears that dwell inside people's hearts!!
Picture comment
-Sasuke is the object of Sakura's longing admiration. The image was enough of a shock to cause her to faint. *"Naraku"="Hell". I translated this as "Tartarus", the equivalent in Greek mythology to mark the difference with "Jigoku", which also happens to mean "Hell". And since the "raku" part of the word has been messed with to mean "burn" instead of "fall", I added "brimstone" to cover that as well.
Databook 1 p.223
NINJUTSU; Mikazuki no Mai (Triple Dance of the Crescent Moon*)
User: Gekkou Hayate
Offensive; Close range; Rank: A
Main text
The caster Kage Bunshins into three individuals, and each one of them assaults the enemy from a blind spot! The attack occurs on three fronts simultaneously, so it's almost impossible to catch them flat-footed. Furthermore, the mighty attacks are so severe that receiving a blow even from one among the three will inevitably result in a fatal wound. In addition, because of the magnificence this ninjutsu projects as they jump at the opponent's upper body in an orbital pattern, the elegance of which is reminiscent of the shape of a new moon, it is referred to with the brand name "Triple Dance of the Crescent Moon".
Caption
-Cruelty, even in elegance. Mowing down the enemy in a fascinating dance!!
Picture comment
-Maybe the strikes were covering all his blind spots. Or possibly, the magnificent dance had robbed him of all vigilance. Baki seemed unable of even the slightest movement... *The "mi" in mikazuki means "three". Indeed, "mikazuki" literally translates as "the moon of the third day". Since there are three attackers, the pun here seems quite obvious.

NINJUTSU; HIDEN; Nan no Kaizou (Arcane: Litheness Remodeling)
Users: Tsurugi Misumi, Orochimaru
Supplementary; Rank: none
Main text
A ninjutsu where through remodeling, one develops their body's flexibility and elasticity to uncanny lengths. Those who undergo such modfications can stretch and retract their bodies at will, and bend them in all kinds of ways. Because it was originally developed as an intelligence-gathering jutsu, it can also be used to pin down an enemy, or offensively, by striking at them with one's limbs, as if they were whips.
Caption
-A body flexible at will, like that of a bewitching serpent.
Picture comment
-Tsurugi Misumi contracts around the enemy to pin them down, and he can even end his opponent's life!

TAIJUTSU; Omote Renge (Front Lotus)
User: Rock Lee
Offensive; Close range; Rank: B
Main text
After the shedding of much blood, sweat and tears, Lee mastered this kinjutsu. To use only "to protect someone precious to you", says his master Guy. For starters, he tosses the enemy high in the air, pushing them with an upwards kick from below, and tailing them with the Kage Buyou* movement technique. Then he captures them, wrapping bandages around them in midair. He holds the enemy tightly in his arms, adds a spinning motion, and plummets headfirst, straight to the ground. The reasons why Lee can use this ultra-high level, special taijutsu is none else than his off-the-charts speed and his thorough understanding of taijutsu's ABCs.
Captions
-Blossoming on the ground, stands a one-hit-kill flower!!
-A prohibited art that won't allow for inertia!!
Picture comments
-He prepares Omote Renge with a kick. From there, the higher the enemy goes, the more powerful it gets.
-Then, he falls at high speed. He won't even give the slightest of pauses to the enemy...! (tn: I'm not 100% sure I got this one right) *See DB 1: Kage Buyou

NINJUTSU; Sabaku Kyuu (Desert's Binding Sand Coffin*)
User: Gaara
Offensive; Close, Medium ranges; Rank: none
Main text
A jutsu to capture the opponent by manipulating the sand supplied by his gourd into burying them alive. This is sand, and therefore it's not consistent in form, and there is no escaping it, regardless of the defensive strategy adopted. Whether the people trapped live or die is for Gaara to decide, but the probability of getting out alive from a symbol of death such as the sand casket is quite low...
Caption
-He commands the sand, forbidding movement to those bound and to be punished by it**!!
Picture comment
-Seized by the Sabaku Kyuu and turned into a clod of sand. At this point there's nothing else besides resigning oneself and wait for death. *Sabaku (砂漠) means "desert". Except when the "baku" part is written 縛 for "seizing", or "capturing".
**戒め (imashime) means "commanding", "binding", or even "punishing".
Databook 1 p.187
NINJUTSU; Sabaku Sousou (Desert's Cascading Sand Funeral*)
User: Gaara
Offensive; Close, Medium ranges; Rank: none
Main text
A terrifying jutsu to end someone's life, squashing them after they are captured with the Sabaku Kyuu**. The sand closes in from every direction, its pressure numbering in tons, and before long, the opponent experiences death, their blood instantly scattered from the sand and the openings in it. Despite this cruelty, it's as if some splendid fireworks had just been shot up. A chunk of meat returns to the ground, its crimson red blood absorbed by the sand, its strength becoming Gaara's...
Caption
-Put to eternal rest by the coffin of Sand!!
-The bloody tears of the dead blend with the mass of sand.
-Even greater power, called upon to provide carnage***...
Picture comments
-Slowly, Gaara forcefully lifts his opponent towards the stage of his death...
-Blood sprays the second Gaara clenches his fist!! *Similar to "Sabaku Kyuu", the author made a pun, except this time "baku" means "waterfall" or cascade".
**See DB 1: Sabaku Kyuu
***The Japanese for "to call" is 呼ぶ (yobu). One pun later, "yobu" is written with 与, the Kanji for "bestowing", or "granting".

NINJUTSU; Sen'ei Jashu (Lurking Shadow's Serpentine Hand)
User: Mitarashi Anko
Offensive; Close range; Rank: C
Main text
A jutsu where the multiple snakes concealed in one's sleeve are used for an unforeseen assault on an opponent! This attack comes in many variations, from biting to constriction. In addition, as those snakes are summoned animals, they are far stronger and more cunning than regular ones, thanks to which they can effectively be employed for capture by entwining around the enemy.
Caption
-Multiple snakes are called forth. Following their master's command, they shackle the enemy!!
Picture comment
-Since they bite and entangle at the same time, it is possible to switch to capture without changing anything.

TAIJUTSU; Sennen Goroshi (Millennial Execution)
User: Hatake Kakashi
Offensive; Close range; Rank: E
Main text
Four fingers standing up from tightly clasped hands, one uses a full-body jump to shove them between the opponent's buttocks! Not lethal, but highly distressing (tn: the actual word is illegible), and those hit by this technique will - ahem - taste agonizing pain for the thousand of years to come...!!
Caption
-An shocking, unexpected four-finger thrust for a millenium of agony?! Sure!
Picture comment
-Naruto's leap is a testament to this terrible* technique!! The original text uses punctuation to make it clear you're not supposed to take any of this seriously. This is kinda hard to convey in English, so I made a couple of minor additions instead.
*This is blatant sarcasm, so you're free to give whichever meaning you see fit to the word "terrible".

Kekkei Genkai: Sharingan
Users: Hatake Kakashi, Uchiha Sasuke
Support, Short, Mid, Long ranges. Rank: none.
Main text
The Kekkei Genkai withheld in the blood of Konoha's finest lineage, the Uchiha clan. This unique ability, manifested only in a mere fraction [of people] even within the clan, is characterized by comma*-shaped markings in one's pupils. On top of an all-encompassing insight and powerful hypnosis, these eyes are hosts to a jutsu-copying ability that memorizes the techniques their gaze falls upon in an instant, and replicates them. Just like Kakashi who, in his fight against Zabuza, used it in such a way as to look like he could predict the future; according to their methods of use, the field of variations the caster can apply to their offense and defense expands indefinitely!!
The power of insight hidden inside these eyes discerns the mechanics of all ninjutsu, taijutsu and genjutsu without restriction, putting it above the crowd even by doujutsu standards. Furthermore, one can even see the patterns of their opponent's movements and attacks, striking firmly without fear of a counter-attack, avoiding lethal blows when defending, evading from offensive moves and so forth: one's combat ability is significantly improved in all kinds of aspects. An awe-inspiring ability for which the "Clairvoyant Eyes of Heaven**" would be an appropriate name indeed!!
The Sharingan's true power, in addition to the threat posed by its insight... is its copying ability, that of making one's own any technique one sets eyes upon. Chakra, handseals... all the principles bringing the jutsu into existence will be recorded into the caster's memory in the blink of an eye, making its utilization possible. Of course, the necessary volume of chakra and physical ability requirements must be met, but should one find themselves in some kind of dire situation, the Uchiha blood will demonstrate its accumulated experience, and never will those who have inherited it know any limits (tn: i.e even if you can't use the jutsu you've copied, the info will still prove most useful provided you can rub two brain cells together)!!
Captions
-The Uchiha clan's God-given, clairvoyant doujutsu, transmitted by blood!!
-Seeing through something and duplicating its principles for oneself.
Picture comments
-The Sharingan in Kakashi's left eye. With that power, he's copied over one thousand techniques.
-Sasuke's Sharingan slightly differs from Kakashi's. Is it because it's not complete yet, or is there something else (tn: just goes to show you Kishi will squeeze all the mystery he can out of any situation, LOL)?
-Reading through countless illusions in an instant. The jutsu's fundamentals, chakra amount and the like: those eyes will reflect matters in their entirety!!
-Receiving a taijutsu blow only once, he makes it his own move!! *By now, I trust everyone is familiar with the word "tomoe". For those who somehow aren't, Wikipedia is your friend, folks.
**天眼, or "tengan" can mean heavenly eyes, clairvoyance, or describe that freaky thing the eyes do when someone suffers from convulsions.

NINJUTSU; Shikon no jutsu (Dead Soul technique)
User: Yakushi Kabuto
Supplementary; Close, Medium ranges; Rank: B
Main text
A ninjutsu to temporarily cause a cadaver's heart to beat, and maneuver it at will with chakra. The traces of surgery can also be erased with chakra, because of which there's no difference, at first glance, with a live person. Kabuto adds plastic surgery to this, altering the corpse's face, and goes even further by erasing its bodily odor, so that the smell doesn't give him away, thus creating a perfect body double for himself.
Caption
-Tenebrous, morbid surgery* to manipulate corpses at will.
Picture comment
-Sinister marks from the operation. In the meantime, he stops the sound of his own heartbeat, poses as a corpse, and then escapes...!! *Punning Mode, activate! Kishimoto does to "surgery" what Kabuto does with his body double technique. He adds a "cadaver" into it.

NINJUTSU; Shintenshin no jutsu (Mental Permutation technique)
User: Yamanaka Ino
Supplementary; Close, Medium ranges, Rank: C
Main text
A jutsu where one releases their own mind, forcing it into the subject, thus usurping the opponent's body. Success with this bold move will instantly determine the issue of a battle. The risk is just as great, though, as the caster's body is defenseless during its utilisation, on top of which damage to the possessed opponent will be reflected upon the caster's real body. Originally, this ninjutsu is suited for intelligence-gathering missions rather than battle.
Caption
-Her heart and spirit* fly into the air and steal away the enemy's body!!
Picture comments
-Because she propels all of her mental energy, the shooting range and number of hits are considerably limited.
-Should the jutsu succeed, the possessed body of her opponent is hers to manipulate as she pleases.
-The damage dealt to the target's body befalls the caster in a similar fashion. *The Kanji spell "mind/spirit", but the furigana disagree and propose "heart" as a pronunciation.
Databook 1 p.191
TAIJUTSU; Shishi Rendan (Lion's Combo)
User: Uchiha Sasuke
Offensive; Close range; Rank: C
Main text
Exclusive to Sasuke, proud recipient of the Uchiha blood, this ultra-fast combo attack requires an advanced physical condition and a certain knack for it. The opponent is tossed into the air and shadowed with Kage Buyou*. Upon inflicting a blow, one takes advantage of said opponent's counterattack to spin around and rise again for further assaults. Since the fall is increased in velocity with each blow, the damage when one is eventually struck to the ground is unconceivable.
Captions
-The lion's roar calls upon a storm. A furious, unrelenting attack in the blink of an eye.
-The lion's fangs//leap and dance//splitting and tearing apart!!
Picture comments
-The first blow is parried. But the lion bares his fangs, one after another...! (tn: the sentence is incomplete because some Kanji were illegible).
-The strength from the assaults generate a high-speed fall, that strikes together with the final blow!! *See DB 1: Kage Buyou

NINJUTSU; Shou Senjutsu (Laying on of Hands/Thaumaturgy*)
User: Yakushi Kabuto
Supplementary; Close range; Rank: A
Main text
An awe-inspiring medical technique where one sends chakra from the hand into a wounded area, causing that spot to restore itself by rapidly increasing its recovering ability. Since the chakra needs to be controlled in order to match the extent of the ailment, few are those who can use it, even among ninja medics. In addition, overloading an opponent with chakra to disrupt the normal functioning of their internal circulatory system, having them fall into a comatose state is also a possibility.
Caption
-The restorative medical technique that heals the body on the inside and the outside with the power of chakra.
Picture comment
-Effective on external wounds, of course, but on internal ailments as well. *Literally, "Wizardry of the Palms". Thankfully, English already had a couple of ready-made expressions to cover this concept, even better than Japanese itself.
Databook 1 p.198
NINJUTSU; Shoushagan no jutsu (Photographic Portrayal Disfigurement technique)
User: Orochimaru
Supplementary; Close range; Rank: B
Main text
A ruthless jutsu where one applies their hand onto the subject's face, stealing its physiognomy and making it their own. Since what is stolen is the face itself, the disguise achieved through facial features alteration* won't reveal the tiniest flaw. Orochimaru used this jutsu to infiltrate the Chuunin preliminary exams, impersonating a Grass ninja. The victims discovered later had been reduced to faceless corpses atrocious even to look at...
Caption
-A heartless masquerade of death without cosmetics. The Orochi's portraiture masterpiece (tn: the translation here is kinda arbitrary)!!
Picture comment
-Anko instantly recognizes her former master, Orochimaru's technique. *Some more messing around with Kanji. The word "disguise" was written in a way that meant "facial transformation". Since Kishi-sensei didn't even bother to write some furigana to make things clearer, he must have been LHAO at the thought of all the headaches he'd give readers and translators worldwide.
Databook 1 p.207
NINJUTSU; Soufuusha San No Tachi (Windmill Manoeuver: Sword Three)
User: Uchiha Sasuke
Offensive; Mid-range; Rank: C
Main text
First, strings are attached beforehand onto the tossed shuriken and the kunai thrown after it, then the shuriken is pulled back using the tree as an axis, based on the yo-yo's principle. Sword One: the shuriken and Sword Two: the kunai are decoys, and the true attack is the backtracking shuriken. Namely, Sword Three! The trick in making this technique successful is to somehow be able to read the enemy's movements. That's what Sharingan is made for.
Caption
-Strings are used to handle the two blades, giving birth to the third one, which digs the enemy's grave!
Picture comment
-Reading in advance Orochimaru's escape route, Sasuke pulled off an invisible "third move" trick.

NINJUTSU; Souja Sousai no jutsu (Twin Snakes' Mutual Annihilation technique)
User: Mitarashi Anko
Offensive; Close range; Rank: A
Main text
A kinjutsu taught to Anko by Orochimaru. It's activated when the caster seizes their enemy's hand and makes the seals together with them. Then, once the sealing is complete, they both meet certain death. A "lovers' double-suicide" Ninja Art, so to speak.
Caption
-Fierce is her determination!! A prohibited jutsu to turn into a snake and get rid of another one (tn: I can't guarantee this sentence's accuracy)!!
Picture comment
-Anko was planning on taking Orochimaru down along with herself, but unfortunately, what she caught was only a Kage Bunshin...

NINJUTSU; Suiton: Suirou no jutsu (Water Release: Water Prison technique)
User: Momochi Zabuza
Supplementary; Close range; Rank: C
Main text
A spherical prison created out of water. Destroying this jutsu from the inside is nearly impossible. However, it's indispensable for the caster to be in contact with part of the cell for it to maintain its shape, so if they take their hand away, the jutsu will be dispelled immediately. This jutsu shows its true might not when one is alone, but when many allies are present.
Caption
-The water prison nobody escapes from!!
Picture comment
-Because of the nature of this jutsu, things can get a little difficult if one is attacked by a third party.
Databook 1 p.201
NINJUTSU; Suiton: Daibakufu no jutsu (Water Release: Grand Waterfall technique)
User: Momochi Zabuza
Offensive; Medium, Long ranges; Rank: A
Main text
The water extends over a large scale, surges and rises up to several dozen meters high. Then it streams down to the ground in one big cascade*, much like a gigantic waterfall...!! In doing so, it quite resembles a humongous high wave, the absurdly tremendous power of which hollows out the ground. What remains after that jutsu's utilization is reminiscent of no less than the aftermath of a natural disaster. This is considerably advanced ninjutsu, and activating that technique requires a fair share of chakra.
Caption
-The manipulated water turns into a waterfall, washing away* absolutely everything in sight! *The vocabulary used here is specific to drinking, a nuance that can hardly be transposed into English without sounding like gibberish or resorting to rather contrived figures of speech. For all it's worth, I used a couple of workarounds instead.
Databook 1 p.201
NINJUTSU; Suiton: Suiryuudan no jutsu (Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet technique)
User: Momochi Zabuza
Offensive; Close, Medium, Long ranges; Rank: B
Main text
A jutsu where a large amount of water hits the opponent with formidable might, dealing physical damage. It was named after the fact that the manipulated water takes the shape of a dragon. The ideal place to use it is near a body of water but if the caster's skill allows it, it is possible to use it even in a place where there is none. That said, the amount of water used will be in proportion with the caster's skill.
Caption
-The dragon-shaped water column swoops down with violence!!
Picture comment
-He takes out Zabuza's Water Dragon with the same technique!!

NINJUTSU; Suna no Tate (Sand Shield)
User: Gaara
Defensive; Close range; Rank: none
Main text
Gaara always carries around a lump of sand inside the gourd on his back. Perhaps the sand actually moves on its own accord... In any event, it flows independently from Gaara's will, and protects him from every enemy attack without exception. Even in the Hidden Sand village, only Gaara is able to use this particular jutsu.
Caption
-A flowing wall of sand. A jutsu accessible to Gaara only!!
Picture comment
-Even though Gaara doesn't move a muscle, the sand promptly shifts to intercept the attack, as if it had a will of its own.
Databook 1 p.203
NINJUTSU; Suna no Yoroi (Sand Armor)
User: Gaara
Defensive; Close range; Rank: none
Main text
The reason why Temari says "Gaara cannot be hurt by anyone" lies with this Armor of Sand. Just as the name implies, he wears the sand over his whole body like an armor, thus boosting his defensive ability. However, this jutsu Gaara activates willingly is highly chakra-consuming, on top of which it is inferior to the Sand Shield* in defensive ability. Proper, clever use of the Sand Shield and Armor is precisely what the Absolute Defense is about.
Caption
-The will of the sand shell. The "why" of the Absolute Defense.
<The Difference>
between the Sand Shield and the Sand Armor...
The sand adheres to the caster's body like a shell. This is the Sand Armor. When the sand flows in response to external attacks, it's the Sand Shield.
Dummy on the right: Sand Armor.
Dummy on the left: Sand Shield. *See DB 1: Suna no Tate
Databook 1 p.210
NINJUTSU; Toomegane no jutsu (Telescopic Observation technique*)
User: Sandaime
Supplementary; Long range; Rank: A
Main text
A jutsu that uses a crystal ball to track a particular individual anywhere they are. There are a few restrictions about the person that is subjected to pursuit. The caster must know that person's chakra pattern. If someone can be targeted for pursuit, they may be miles and miles far away, the crystal ball will be able to confirm their position. As this jutsu is infallible for intelligence purposes, Sandaime Hokage uses it to maintain public order in the village.
Caption
-The unfathomable clairvoyance that sees everything without obstruction.
Picture comment
-If the targeted individual is inside the village of Konoha, they will be observable even on top of a mountain or in the middle of the ocean. *"Toomegane" simply translates as "telescope". But taken literally, the Kanji can mean either "remote spectacles" or "mirror of far-sightedness", depending on how you separate the words.
Databook 1 p.155
Intro
Caption: Kneading chakra and performing seals until the jutsu activates!!
Main text
One kneads mental and physical energies from the body's 130 000 000 000 000 cells or so into chakra, and by performing seals, converts it into a jutsu. If the aforementioned sequence goes impeccably, the jutsu will activate.
Dummy's hands: Seal.
Flame: Jutsu
Dummy's chest, upper wedge: Mind
Dummy's chest, lower wedge: Body
Below the flame: An example of Katon jutsu
Fig. 1 Upper part, right to left: Stamina {Mental energy; Physical energy} Taijutsu
Lower part, right to left (tn: partly illegible, but probably means the following): Combining mental and physical energies. In other words, kneading chakra. Chakra. Seal. Ninjutsu, or genjutsu.
Picture comment
To activate techniques besides taijutsu, basic chakra conversion is a necesssity.
Fig. 2 CHAKRA
Caption: The source of energy for a jutsu's activation
Main text
To put it plainly, chakra is what fuels a jutsu. The mental and physical energies of a shinobi's body are joined together into stamina, which is internally converted into chakra, the energy source for a jutsu's activation. In addition, how efficiently the conversion goes is influenced by the caster's skill. Being able to efficiently convert stamina means a possibility to cast an even larger number of jutsu. In addition, chakra can be used to temporarily trigger some physical abilities. Thanks to this, shinobi can perform superhuman physical feats.
Wedge: Upper half: Mental energy. Lower half: Physical energy
Comment: It is necessary to balance out those two elements to knead properly.
Stamina
Having a lot of stamina means an increased number of jutsu available for use. The scope of attack expands proportionately.
Comment: Naruto has a wonderful amount of stamina.
Control
Gathering some kneaded chakra at the sole of one's feet, one can adhere to a tree branch. If one can maintain the chakra and control it, it's also possible to hang down from it.
Comment: Releasing control even for a little bit is enough to fall to the ground.
Release
With training, it's also possible to release chakra from the body. Continuous release from the sole of the feet enables one to walk on water.
Comment: Upper classes are even able to stand still.
Fig. 3 Seals
Caption: Processing chakra into a technique!!
Main text
Seals are a capital step towards the conversion of the kneaded chakra into a jutsu. Each jutsu has determined seals to it, and they have to be performed without a mistake, and matching the moment of the activation. Basically, a low-level jutsu takes simple seals. When it comes to advanced jutsu, more complex seals become necessary.
Horse Seal
Tiger Seal
Comment: Normally, performing a seal requires both hands to be employed.
