Genjutsu (幻術; Literally meaning "Illusionary Techniques") are techniques that are employed in the same fashion as ninjutsu, requiring chakra and hand seals. However, the primary difference between the two is that the effects of genjutsu are illusory; instead of attacking the victim's body, Genjutsu techniques manipulate the flow of chakra in the victim's brain, thus causing a disruption in their senses.
This is often used to create false images or to cause pain from trauma (because the body is led to believe it is in pain); however, there are plenty of other uses depending on the situation. They are not used as often as ninjutsu because they don't physically harm the opponent
Genjutsu is created when a ninja extends their chakra flow through the cerebral nervous system of their opponent to control their mind's chakra, thereby affecting their five senses. Those with special abilities like the Uchiha clan's Sharingan or with high intelligence have an easier time executing and countering genjutsu, as attention to detail is key. Those under the influence of genjutsu either freeze in place or lose consciousness, depending on how capable they are in recognizing and defending against it.
Because Genjutsu effects activity throughout the Prosencephalon structure of the brain, (a feature unique to mammalian species), humans, dogs and other species of mammal are therefore all affected by genjutsu; however, the Kikaichuu, like all insects, lack such a structure to their brains, and so do not even notice it: Insects are ruled almost solely by five powerful senses alone, which makes them immune to genjutsu and gives the Aburame clan an ability to detect it when nobody else can.

Name: Magen: Narakumi no Jutsu - Demonic Illusion: Hell Viewing Technique
Classification: Genjutsu
Type: Supplementary
Range: Close (0~5m)
Hand Seals: Snake → Rat
Requirements: -
This is a genjutsu that reveals the fears that dwell inside people's hearts. Everyone has an image of the one thing they wouldn't 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. First, an imaginary circle of leaves will spin around and envelop the target, falling away shortly after. After a short period, the illusion will begin. This is to make the illusion more convincing, since the user will likely have moved before the illusion sets in. If the mental image is a gruesome one, the shock will be accordingly great.
Name: Kasumi Juusha no Jutsu - Mist Servant Technique
Classification: Genjutsu, Bunshinjutsu
Type: Supplementary
Range: -
Hand Seals: -
Requirements: -
This genjutsu creates eerie black ninja illusions, which appear one by one from trees and rocks, and corner the enemy. Their movements are slow, but when attacked they multiply, and in this way they appear like ghosts inhabiting the mist. Kunai and other weaponry can be added to this technique, by throwing them to match illusions movement, making them seem real. As the clones continue to multiply, the victim will eventually be worn down.

Name: Mateki: Mugen Onsa - Demon Flute: Phantom Sound Chains
Classification: Genjutsu
Type: Supplementary
Range: Close (0~5) to Long (10m+)
Hand Seals: -
Requirements: Flute
A genjutsu that relies on the sound of the flute. Whoever hears it will be assailed by the vivid sensation that their limbs have been fastened with sturdy ropes, thus becoming unable to move about freely. Even without physical intervention from an outside force, the body is robbed of all mobility, and consciousness itself progressively fades away. At the same time, they are fed morbid hallucinations, which makes it also possible to run them down mentally. Given that the means of transmission is sound-based, it has a large range of effectiveness, on top of which it can be applied even without knowledge of the enemy's position, which makes for an exceedingly convenient technique.
Name: Magen: Jubaku Satsu - Demonic Illusion: Tree Binding Death
Classification: Genjutsu
Type: Supplementary
Range: Close (0~5)
Hand Seals: Dog → Snake → Monkey → Ox → Tiger
Requirements: -
The target is completely robbed of their mobility as they see the mirage of a tree coiling itself around them. Given that the subject remains conscious, this jutsu proves extremely efficient for information-gathering. Once the target is immobile, the user can then attack the enemy.

Name: Kokuangyo no Jutsu - Bringer of Darkness Technique
Classification: Genjutsu
Type: Supplementary
Range: Close (0~5) to Mid (5~10m)
Hand Seals: Tiger
Requirements: -
A genjutsu which exerts an hallucinatory effect upon the eyesight, stealing all light away. A world of darkness, as if a thick, jet-black curtain had been dropped. No matter how skilled someone is, they have no option besides turning into sitting ducks. This effect allows the user to attack unseen. Although it negates sight, it does not stop the other senses. In essence, the opponent can sense, hear and smell out the user of the technique and break its effects by landing one hit.
Name: Nehan Shouja no Jutsu - Temple of Nirvana Technique
Classification: Genjutsu
Type: Supplementary
Range: Close (0~5) to Long (10m+)
Hand Seals: Tiger
Requirements: -
This jutsu causes everyone within a specific area to fall into a deep sleep. From the target's point of view, it seems as if feathers are falling from the sky, which serves as a distraction to allow the jutsu to take effect. The downside, however, is that any experienced ninja have more than enough time to dispel it.
