Kotoamatsukami

It's pretty common to see anime villains use hypnosis powers, but the Kotoamatsukami amounts to more than swinging a pocket watch back and forth in a memorizing way. The Kotoamatsukami is a near-perfect manipulation ninjutsu that makes its victims believe that they are operating under their own free will, whereas in reality they're being controlled by the technique's user. It's a frightening ninjutsu because the victims have no idea that they're being manipulated, since Kotoamatsukami fills their heads with false memories.
