List of Common Fuinjutsu

Finger Engraving Seal: The user concentrates chakra into their finger and using the heat from that can apply writing on whatever they want. This allows them to write on the skin of animals, iron plates, or a wide range of things however when doing so requires them to be very delicate with their chakra control. This jutsu causes slight discomfort for a living target and if it is on flesh, it will scar.

Generic Sealing Technique: This technique is a standard ninja skill which allows a ninja to summon an assortment of items or weapons that have been stored using Fūinjutsu, typically they are stored within scrolls. When needed, the owner will activate the seals releasing their item or weapon of choice. Scrolls can also be used as ammunition for other weapons. The items themselves are unaffected by time.

Chakra-Suppressing Seal: This special seal tag was developed by Jiraiya so it can be used to suppress the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox's influence over Naruto. By applying the seal to Naruto's forehead the Nine-Tails' chakra and personality recede. Naruto is left fatigued afterwards.

Fire Sealing Method: This jutsu allows the user to seal a nearby fire into a scroll. The user writes the seal on a scroll and then performs the required hand seals. This causes a vapor to appear from the scroll, enveloping the fire and sealing it on the scroll as the kanji for seal (封). Jiraiya used this jutsu to seal away the left over black fire from Itachi Uchiha's Amaterasu technique.

Four Symbols Seal: Used as part of the Eight Trigrams Sealing Style, the Four Symbols Seal helps Naruto Uzumaki access the chakra of the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox sealed within him. The seal also usually appears at the stomach of the users of the Dead Demon Consuming Seal after their target (and the user's own soul) is sealed at the Death God's stomach, such as what happened to Hiruzen Sarutobi after sealing Orochimaru's arms.

Killer Bee has remarked that this seal is high-quality and more durable compared to the Iron Armor Seal that holds the Eight-Tailed Giant Ox. As part of Naruto's effort to control the Nine-Tails, he has undone the seal using the key given to him by Gerotora.

Reverse Four Symbols Sealing Technique: This technique is a sealing jutsu that Danzō placed over his body, setting it to activate upon his death. The jutsu releases four symbols from Danzō's body that then forms a large, black sphere around him. Anything caught inside the sphere's area is then drawn in and sealed within Danzō's corpse.

This jutsu has the opposite effect of Minato's Four Symbols Seal, a technique which allows Naruto to draw out the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox's chakra from within himself.

Sealing Technique: Traingle Seal: Hiruzen does some quick hand seals and a triangle seal forms around the opponent. Before the opponent can react, the triangle seal absorbs the opponent and sends them up in the sky. After the jutsu is used, a big triangle is left in the ground.

Evil Sealing Method: This jutsu is used to suppress jutsu-induced marks on a person. Marks of weaker power can be completely suppressed by this jutsu alone, but for marks of higher power like Sasuke Uchiha's Cursed Seal of Heaven, this seal is dependent on the recipient's willpower to some extent. It is also capable of holding back certain Kekkei Genkai, such as that of the Kurama clan as seen when Kurenai tried to do this.

This seal requires a number of hand seals and a large amount of chakra to be performed. Preparation for this jutsu requires two concentric circles with kunai placed in intervals along the circumference, in addition to a number of characters written in blood that radiate out from the center of the curse seal.

According to Kakashi, this jutsu is quick, but painful. The seal can be removed at any time by the caster or whoever the seal is on, as demonstrated during Sasuke's battle with Naruto in the Valley of the End. Since this seal does rely on the will of the individual on to whom its placed the affected may be able to just will it away without an unsealing jutsu.

When Orochimaru was extracted from Sasuke through Itachi's Sword of Totsuka, not only was the Cursed Seal of Heaven removed, but also the Evil Sealing Method around it.

Five Elements Seal: This jutsu produces a powerful seal that is used to block or disturb the flow of chakra in a target. Once the seal is completed, the target will become unconscious and unable to fight for a short time. Orochimaru performed this jutsu to tamper with the seal on the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox. The original seal allowed the Nine-Tails' chakra to seep out into Naruto Uzumaki, but the additional seal disturbs this, preventing Naruto from using the Nine-Tails' chakra or even controlling his own chakra properly. This is because an odd-numbered seal creates an imbalance when placed on top of an even-numbered seal. When Orochimaru later notices that the seal has been removed, he remarks that there are very few ninja capable of doing so.

Five Elements Unseal: This jutsu is used to remove seals of up to equal power, like the Five Elements Seal.

Four Corner Sealing Barrier: This technique was designed by Tsunade for the purpose of sealing a tailed beast. The technique is performed with four separate scrolls and a sample of blood similar to a Summoning Technique. Shizune mentioned that good chakra control and concentration are needed to perform the sealing technique. To use this technique, a scroll is needed to seal the numerous amounts of chakra. This technique was supposed to seal the Three-Tailed Giant Turtle in its own dimension, permanently. This jutsu has three stages: a "Search" stage, a "Bind" stage, and a "Lock" stage in capturing the target.

Time-Release Technique: By placing a mark on a person in a ritualistic method, this technique will activate as timed even if the person is tortured or put under a trance. This is meant to catch an enemy when their guard is down. Sai mentions that this is used as a last resort technique by the ANBU, and as such, is rare. When Kakashi Hatake requested Tsunade to use it on him, the technique would activate Kakashi's Mangekyō Sharingan technique, the Kamui, upon Hiruko's attempt to assimilate him.

Dead Demon Consuming Seal: This seal invokes the powers of the death god (shinigami). Once called upon, the death god hovers behind the user and inserts its arm into their soul. At this stage only the user can see the death god. To perform the seal the user need only grasp the target. The death god's arm extends from their chest and grabs the soul of the target, immobilizing them and allowing them to see the death god as well. Soon after the sealing is completed the death god consumes the soul of the user as well, sentencing them to an eternity of battle with their target in its stomach. The swirl-pattern of the Eight Trigrams Sealing Style is left on the stomachs of those that have had something sealed within them using this jutsu.

Hiruzen Sarutobi, the Third Hokage, used the Dead Demon Consuming Seal with his last energy in an attempt to take Orochimaru's soul with him, but Orochimaru showed enough resistance against the Third Hokage to escape with his life but without his arms. As the death god had stole Orochimaru's soul's arms, his physical arms suffered from necrosis, causing him extreme pain and unable to use them, all the while corroding as time passes. However, it was implied that such a condition could be healed, as he sought out Tsunade, the world's greatest medical-nin, to do so.

Eight Trigrams Sealing Style: The Eight Trigrams Sealing Style, consisting of two Four Symbols Seals, was used by Minato Namikaze to help Naruto Uzumaki access the chakra of the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox sealed within him. While he did claim it was designed to hold an imprint of this seal's user (as well as the chakra and personalities of other people that the sealer chooses) as a failsafe, it is yet unknown how it is done.[3][4] These imprints (as in the case of Minato and Kushina Uzumaki) have the capacity to recede the Nine-Tails' activity and interaction with Naruto, as well as talking to him for a limited amount of time. This seal weakens over time. As such, to strengthen the seal again when it gets too weak, Minato drew a key on the abdomen of the scroll toad Gerotora.

When Orochimaru used the Five Elements Seal on Naruto, this created an imbalance due to an odd-numbered seal being placed over an even-numbered one. As a result, Naruto not only lost access to the Nine-Tails' chakra, but also had difficulty controlling his own, until Jiraiya removed it.

Noted jinchūriki Killer Bee has remarked that this seal is high-quality and more durable compared to the Iron Armor Seal that holds the Eight-Tailed Giant Ox. As part of Naruto's effort to control the Nine-Tails, he has undone the seal using the key given to him by Gerotora.

Yin Seal: Release: Yin Seal: Release is a powerful sealing technique used by Tsunade. Over a period of time, Tsunade will focus and build up chakra in the seal mark on her forehead. The release command will disperse the seal and allow the stored chakra to pump back into her body. She uses the chakra to perform Creation Rebirth on herself or to heal a vast amount of people through Katsuyu.
