Jutsu
This is one lethal Jutsu for Sharingan Eye Ninjas.
For just two Fire, you can change a Jutsu's text.
That's right, it's not negation... it's something
worst!!!
The target Jutsu is changed from whatever it was
supposed to say to a Jutsu that reduces the user's
combat, support, and mental power all the way down
to ZERO. This can bring forth the difference between
getting hit hard, and hitting your opponent hard. Of
course, this is a reactive Jutsu, so you have to
wait for your opponent to use a Jutsu to use this
one. In limited, I'm not sure. In constructed, this
could be a good sideboard material. Try it and see.
And now, introducing your favorite and prettiest
reviewer in all of Naruto history...Mr. N. Jolly!
Yes, I am that good.
But now we have what is referred to the best of
Fire's new reactive Jutsu, Visual Jutsu. Let's look
at it's stats; Requirements: Sharingan Eye, Cost:
FF, Target: One Jutsu card in play. The effect is
that the user of the Jutsu card has it's power
reduced to 0/0 and it's mental power reduced to 0.
This card is a bit more expensive than Sharingan
Eye, and really, this review is just a comparison of
the two. Not only that, but this card, unlike
Sharingan Eye, doesn't discard the targeted jutsu,
so your opponent still gets that chakra when it
resolves.
Now that's where is falls to Sharingan Eye...now
don't get me wrong, I love this card. In so many
situations it's better, as Fire doesn't build up a
huge amount of off color chakra, other than maybe
some Earth from playing LAR off of a Shika/Choji
charge or any platoon you'd play in the deck, so the
two Fire cost really isn't that bad. Second of all,
this card pretty much assures that you'll win the
battle and probably OV your opponent. Having
Sharingan Eye as it's requirement means it can still
be used on T0 with Sasuke, which protects you from
any early game jutsu and if you actually land it,
you'll probably wreck your opponent's team beyond
repair, making the rest of the game that much
easier.
Constructed:4.5/5 It's really good, just like
Sharingan Eye
Limited:Amount of Sharingan Eye users X 1.5/5
Art:Hungry eyes/5

Visual Jutsu
It's a known fact that the Sharingan Eye from Path
to Hokage has had a pretty dominating grip over
Fire's negation jutsu since the beginning of the
game. That grip just got much, much looser. This
card does everything Sharingan does (same users,
virtually the same cost, and has the same target)
but with an added debuff, trading away it's ability
to duck under Gigantic Fan (a card that defined the
jutsu line-up for an entire format and every format
thereafter) as well as Sharingan's ability to
immediately discard the negated jutsu (indirectly
robbing an opponent out of 1 chakra). Ducking under
Fan is a pretty negligible trick these days though
IMO, so it basically comes down to whether you want
to indirectly burn a chakra or debuff an opposing
ninja completely. Burning a chakra is nice, but
having a negation tool that can easily turn a Defeat
for you into a Victory without ANY extra effort on
your part seems good to me.
Limited: 4/5 (It's Sharingan Eye 2.0.)
Constructed: 4.5/5 (When you can rival or outright
replace a card that's dominated it's position with
an iron fist for 14 sets, you must be doing
something right.)
Artwork: I would've preferred this card had the
artwork for J-381 Kaleidoscope Sharingan. This art
is far to plain.

Hello everyone and happy weekend to you all :).
Today's card is another Reactive Jutsu from the next
set and a much better one than the last we reviewed:
Visual Jutsu J-537
For the cost of 2 Fire(8 Trigrams cost), and the
requirements of sharingan eye(can be used anytime in
the game), you indirectly negate your opponent's
jutsu and give an all around 0 to the user of said
jutsu. Not a bad thing at all, although removal is
better, this is nearly the same and sometimes
better. From Sasuke Turn 0 to Itachi Turn 6, this
jutsu can hit anytime in the game and run through an
opponent's team and OV it. This reactive jutsu is
pretty nice although it's fan-able it's like a
Sharingan Eye with an added effect at the cost of
paying a Fire Chakra instead of a Generic Chakra.
This card will see 50/50 play as some people will
still prefer Sharingan Eye due to its generic cost
and other people wont mind paying specific chakra
for a good added effect. That's my prediction.
Good move from bandai here and this jutsu will
see play.
Limited: 1/5 (Specific chakra and users)
Constructed: 3.5/5 (Will be switched around with
Sharingan Eye)
