Soap Bubble Ninjutsu is a branch of ninjutsu from the Bubble-line (バブル系, Baburu-kei) of Water Release nature transformation.
Overview[]
The user uses a Bubble Blower to create his highly versatile bubbles, which can be used to perform various techniques.
In the manga, it was shown that this line of ninjutsu allows Utakata to create bubbles with an explosive composition that he can manipulate to attack the enemy. These bubbles can either burst on their own or on Utakata's command. In the anime, where this technique is expanded on, it is shown to be extremely versatile: Utakata can float inside his bubbles for transport, as well as use them offensively by trapping his enemies in them and filling the bubbles with water to drown them. These bubbles can also be filled with different materials, such as blinding powder, smoke, acid or sticky slime. It was also shown that Utakata's master carried a bubble blower with him as well, hinting that he also used this form of ninjutsu.
Shū's approach to this already unique branch of techniques is very different. Instead of using a bubble blower, Shū forms the bubbles with his fingers, and molds them into the shapes of animals or weapons, meant to have different effects against his targets. Because he can also apply Yang Release to his techniques, he gains additional skills. An example of this is his power to create healing bubble domes, that use the life force of the Yang nature to heal his targets. An example of his unique method of fighting is his first technique revealed, where he creates a soap bubble shaped like a bear, that crashes against his targets and seals them away.
