Game of the Year: A Naruto Quest

[X] This is still an illusion! You know it! You just need to break it! Pump even more chakra into your dispelling technique and escape it!

He knows things that are literally impossible to know, so yeah. This is just our subconscious mind fucking with us.
 
[X] Plan: Calm Analytics
-[X] You know this is a genjutsu. You know that Kurenai is a mistress of genjutsu, so it is no surprise that you can't escape it. Calm yourself, you know this is all a fake.
-[X] You are not the little boy that was helpless back then, be confident in what you accomplished, and try to endure the trauma.
-[X] The quest log only confirms that Kurenai has started to attack your group, and it tells you to survive, not fight or win. So the winning condition is to last long enough.
-[X] Try to break the genjutsu with more Chakra, but otherwise, trust in your teammates to break it for you, and don't panic.
-[X] Go into an unarmed defense only to ward off attacks from Tokei, but limit yourself so that you aren't attacking your teammates.
 
If this is a recreation, We are in the middle of leaf, we don't have to face him alone.

[X] Yell for the guards, play for time.
 
[X] This moment has haunted you the last seven years. Hidden from thought, its shadow clings to you. Is it any wonder how you move here, foolish as it may be? Attempt to disarm him and knock him unconscious.
 
[] This is still an illusion! You know it! You just need to break it! Pump even more chakra into your dispelling technique and escape it!
[] Tokei has a sword, but so do you! You've killed him before; you can do it again.[/SPOILER]
Let's be real, here: The chance that Kurenai's illusion will play sufficiently fair for us to be able to kill Tokei again is slim, but the chance that we can break out of a genjutsu from the preeminent genjutsu user of the entire village is fucking nil. Zip. Zero. Nada. Consequently,

[X] Tokei has a sword, but so do you! You've killed him before; you can do it again.
 
This is a fucking test for fresh genins.
And if the test was "can you recognize an obvious genjutsu", then it would be weak enough kai would work. Since it didn't- and we should be the best in the entire class at it- we can assume that "recognizing the obvious genjutsu and doing the obvious counter" isn't the point of the test. As such, kai isn't going to work; we're stuck in it until she gets what she's looking for out of our reaction.

Great observation, brownie points for you, that's why I vote to use the second, less obvious counter for Gen-jutsu.

1: Yes, it's no surprise, because we only used one method three times.
2: no idea what the point of this one is.
3: where does it say, that we have to drag on with this test? to survive = to pass the test, end of story
4: Be prepared for no surprises when we do something useless a fourth time.
4+: Yes, show our new sensei, that we can only function when we can rely on our teammates.
5: Pointless point is pointless.

I don't even want to start on the "for-the-lulz"-vote.

Unless we think this is genjutsu!Mariko, then we stab the shit out it like it's a squirrel.
