Music Release

Music Release is a special Kekkei Genkai that came into existence through the musical troupe Gakushi Genzō was born into. This Kekkei Genkai, though similar in function to genjutsu, works entirely differently; instead of using chakra to manipulate a user's mental state, the unique chakra of the music troupe is instead applied to their instruments. Their instruments create a unique soundwave that penetrates through the brain itself, and can manipulate various functions based on what form of Music Release the user was born with. Gakushi, for example, was born with a variant that allows her to manipulate a target's fight-or-flight responses, allowing her to end a battle before it even begins by having the target lash out at their companions, freeze them in place by flooding their brain with fear signals, or cause them to retreat outright.
