Naruto: The Strongest Genjutsu Techniques, Ranked

Perhaps the most underutilized of the three categories of jutsu practiced by shinobi in the world of Naruto, genjutsu involves the creation of illusions through the manipulation of an enemy’s chakra flow. By doing so, shinobi can trap their adversaries in a dream-like state that either makes them vulnerable to physical attacks, or incapacitates them entirely, leaving them all but vanquished. Diverging from the physical constructs and tangible effects of ninjutsu in Naruto, genjutsu focuses on manipulating the cerebral nervous system.
