Jutsu Shiki (術式 Jutsu Shiki) is a Caster Magic, and a form of Letter Magic utilizing Magic Runes.
Description[]

Jutsu Shiki in action
It is a form of Letter Magic in which the user is able to create barriers in certain areas by surrounding it with runes they write with a magic based writing tool. Those who step inside these runes will be trapped and forced to obey the rules that the user set up beforehand. These rules range from age or time limits, to tasks that must be completed, such as defeating others within the spell's boundaries. Due to the nature of this Magic, it takes a considerable amount of time to draw out these barriers, therefore it's more suited for laying preemptive traps, delaying, or psyching out an opponent rather than for direct combat. In addition, it also takes a significant amount of time to cast.[1] The traps set are particularly invisible, making it easier for anyone to get caught.[2]
One's Jutsu Shiki barriers can be can be negated by another who practices the same Magic, or at least overwritten enough to allow specific people to pass.[3] The runes must be written consistently and in detail, otherwise they take no effect and rendered meaningless.[4] Even a misspelled letter or a rune from a different language could ruin the trap.[5]
The barriers are implied to comprise some degree of Magical Barrier Particles, anyone capable of nullifying these particles will also negate the barrier itself.[6]
This Magic is also shown to set up other forms of traps such as a self destruction function by place autonomous destructive runes onto a target, a method created by Brain. Unlike the barriers, this appears to be conjured almost instantly.[7]
