Due to the MediaWiki upgrade, Special:BrowseData lists are now working for older data but not for newer data. Also, Infobox might be missing some items. We do ask that you bear with us as the issues are addressed.
Sorry for the trouble and thanks for your upgrade patience.-Wikia

The user creates a dome-shaped sandstorm which surrounds the opponent and hinders it from escaping. During the technique's execution, the used sand particles collide against each other, thus creating electro-magnetic waves which place the trapped person under never-ending genjutsu in the form of characterless beings attacking with kunai. While the target is busy fending these illusions off, it is vulnerable for attacks from the outside.
When sand isn't readily available Akari will use Earth Release alongside the technique to create sand or other earthen debris.
