if it's too dark, then he won't be able to see anything, then he won't know where to send his shadow to...
he needs to attach HIS shadow to other shadows, the other shadows just give him a distance boost...
and the darkness of nighttime is shadow, just from the other side of earth (the one facing the sun).
ino said so herself, that even if there is a small amount of light, then there exists a shadow within a shadow.....
this would suggest to me that at least a small amount of light is necessary for the trick to work.

hmm...well when shika was fighting temari...she was thinking of sending out a clone..and he wouldnt be able to catch it..
She was going to send out a clone for him to waste his jutsu on and then she would waste him with kamaitachi.
It's a good thing he caught her first.
I think that Shikamaru's tech will work as long as there is at least enough light for a discernable shadow.
Basically as long as he's not in absolute darkness (which is pretty damn dark) then his jutsu should be able to work.
Thats what I'm talking about. If Shikamaru uses a flashlight or something, he could use the night to strech his shadow infinitively.
I was thinking about the final matches and how there could be a shadow within a shadow. So does this mean that at night shikamaru is unstopable? Since his shadow uses other shadows to increase length, he could possibly cover entire cities at nighttime. The only thing that would stop him would be his stanima and chakra. http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/blink.gif
Well if the moon was up possibly..... otherwise there would be no shadows jsut darkness.

lol, and then he will own Hokage and Kazekage too right? After all they are also Shadows. http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/laugh.gif http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/laugh.gif
ah well, shadow imitation is only deadly if you know how to use it...if you have no strategies like shikamaru...theres no point in having it except for stopping people...i mean like someone say naruto for example had shadow imitation...he wouldnt know what to do..so it wouldnt be real deadly...
Yup. But what about the streetlights, I mean they must have some kind of light on the nights candles or lanterns or something http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/wink.gif

yeah i agree. If shikamaru was carrying a torch or a light source of some sort, night time will be his turf http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/ph34r.gif

after shika takes over a city ohhh let's say .... SAND, then grab leaf nins and go to kill everyone. Shika wouldn't feel anything since he only binds them not take over their bodies. therefore his jutsu would be most effective if others are involved
if u give naruto kagemane naruto would get creative trust me its naruto.
knowing him, he woulda probably send clones on the enemy after hes captured him. or because he has so much chakra, he could trap the enemy for a long period of time lol
n after his chakra runs out, pull out some kyubi chakra, u can basically prison the person.
thats intresting... will he be unstopable, just thinl of the thing u can do with that jutsu i mean if u were strong enough u can prolly bind about atalest half of the village if u wanted to

yeah but then what?
Just couse he can control them dosnt mean his unstopable. The chakra will run out quikly and even if it didnt what can he do more?.. walk? http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/tongue.gif
um this was mentioned somewhere in a distant topic.
Shadow = absence of light?
You don't need a light source for there to be a shadow...it can all be darkness and it would all be considered a shadow
i said WILL HE BE UNSTOPABLE i didnt say that he was and anyways he doesnt neccessarly have to harm anyone, i mean he could just be testing out his poweres or something

they are just called shadow clones they arent real shadows..... they are real bodies its naruto who multiplie. shikamaru can only catch the kage bunshins and control them not stretch them....
i think he meant stretch the shadow. and in that case you can, since it is a shadow.
