Raiton: Goshujin Gobyuu

[CHILD'ISH]

Raiton: Goshujin Gobyuu (Lightning Element: Your Mistake)
Rank: B
Type: Offensive | Ninjutsu
Handseals: No
Chakra: High
Special: The user must be locked blades for half a turn with a metal weapon in order for the Raiton chakra to form a circuit. The shock lasts for two seconds, leaving their muscles sore for a turn, plus one more turn each time retrained. However, after every third retraining, chakra consumption will go up by one.
Description: After locking blades with their enemy, the user charges his weapon with the Raiton element, sending the charge through his target's blade and into their body.
Domain: Raiton, Karai Shin 'B'.

Nintai or hand seals. Pick one.

I refuse to let anyone dabble into this subjective twilight zone known as handsealess bs.

Shocks the target for two seconds

* How fast is the onset of the shock (i.e. half turn for 2 seconds?) and add the dominion 'B' requirement to the domain. After that is fixed you should be good to go.

I'm aware that handseal-less ninjutsu is considered taboo, but in this situation I think it's okay. The technique is very similar to one that we've already seen in the manga, and frankly, I can't see this working if handseals were required. And Nintaijutsu wouldn't make sense either.

I'm going to give this a 1/3. If someone else feels differently, by all means says so.

[CHILD'ISH]

That's what I was basing it off.

Now, lets see here. There is a certain degree of leeway in regards to seal-less ninjutsu; according to the customs guide:

Very few ninjutsu will be sealess - think of rare, special techs like Chidori or Rasengan!

At first, I would ask, is this a rare, special technique? No, it is not. It simply doesn't match the rarity, complexity, and ability of techniques like Chidori or the Rasengan. However, all is not lost.

This is little more than the directed flow of Raiton-aligned chakra, and I can see the basis for it being seal-less. I'll give you an option, in this case. You can either keep the technique as it is, or you can edit the technique to be seal-less, with the caveat that it only works on metal (i.e. conductive) weapons. Flowing electricity through a non-conductive medium is complex enough to be more than directed chakra, and would thus require seals.

So its up to you. ^^

I've gone with a latter.

Wonderful. My apologies for all the confusion in here.
