ANBU - The ANBU is actually short for ANsatsu Senjutsu Tokushu BUtai (暗殺戦術特殊部隊, Ansatsu Senjutsu Tokushu Butai literally Special Assassination and Tactical Squad). The name is a form of contraction, similar to English acronyms like SWAT, where the two kanji used to abbreviate the group's full name constitute an actual word on their own.
* Attire - The ANBU wear porcelain animal masks in order to distinguish themselves from normal shinobi and to conceal their identities. They also have standard uniforms consisting of black and gray armor, arm guards, and a signature spiral tattoo on their left shoulder (although some members in the anime have it on the right shoulder). Certain ANBU wear black cloaks over their standard uniforms, and squad leaders may wear white cloaks.
* Purpose - ANBU protect the village from exceptional threats, conduct high-risk missions into enemy countries, and deal with extremely strong ninja. They are also responsible for carrying out assassinations and missions requiring specially trained ninja. all ANBU carry Ninjaken, which are usually strapped to their backs, and they all know the layout of the human body in detail. With Time Reversal Technique, an ANBU can put someone in a state of reverse hypnosis, allowing them to remember details that they otherwise would not. They serve under the direct command of their Kage.
Divisions by Overview
There are normally seven divisions of ANBU that are universal. These seven ANBU divisions have their own style, they have their own job description. These types of ANBU are dedicated to their own work. Each division of ANBU is capable of learning the universal ANBU techniques, however there are an amount of ANBU techniques in which one may master within their own division. Before becoming an ANBU member one must pick the division they wish to go into. Every ANBU member has their own division. Each Division has their own style of Mask that are in a shape of a type of animal. Becoming a member of ANBU is quite difficult, and each member must be diverse in some way. They must be capable of acting in all three skills close to equalibrium, these skills are in the art of NinJutsu, GenJutsu, and TaiJutsu. If one is incapable of being diverse, thinking on the fly, being defeated by one or the other style of art easily, then it is not best to be a member of the ANBU. This is why there is hardly any Ninja who are masters in just one style of Art.
* Falcon Division - Specializes in Hunt and Disposal - The Falcon Division are those that are considered as Hunter Nins, Shinobi Hunters in a sense. They are the ones that go off finding, and hunting the Missing Ninjas. They are dedicated to hunt and find people found within bingo books.

To the bear division the city is their cubs, and a cub will battle and protect their cubs. The Bear Division are known to be protectors, the Tanks within an ANBU formation within a team.
* Cat Division - Specializes in Stealth and Assassination - The Grunt workers in a sense. These are the assassins. The Cat Divisions are those who go out hunting the top of the game. They come forth, showing their power through stealth, and quick killing. When there needs someone to be taken out that may be somewhat of a problem, the Cat Division are the ones that are called forth. Whether it may be a Kage, a Daiymo, a Lord, or a caravan that has heavy forces guarding, the Cat Division are called forth to do the work.

* Wolf Division - Specializes in Torture and Interrogation - If there is information that is needed by any means necessary, the Wolf Division is the right Division. They are never the types of lead, but those that will be support, and take action when the time is right. Not normal leaders on missions but leaders when gaining information from one in question. They specialize in the human anatomy about as much as that of the Frog Division but not to heal, instead to harm. They are capable of giving torture, as well as gaining torture. They know the meaning of secrets and are honestly the select choice in keeping them. If there is a time where one is captured in the Village as a safe zone, or in the middle of the battlefield, the Wolf Division never holds back in gaining what is necessary.
* Dragon Division - Specializes in Organization and Gathering - Considered as the Team Leaders. The Dragon Divisions are those that oversee the rest of the ANBU team, they plan, gather allies, and make the decisions that is necessary. They are also sometimes known as ambassadors, messengers from village to village. Reasons why is because it is best to have one who is capable of defending themselves and coming back to the village safely, then one who is incompetent and will loose their head quite easily. the Dragon Division specialize in moral capabilities, utter words and speech are capable of making those in battle become stronger, or quiver in fear. Some may mistaken them as the worded bards.
