Void if seal is broken.
Time Bomb Seal
(Note: not timed bomb.)
@Noumero : Poke poke.
Note the qualifier, "significant". He's still clear to use it for pretty vengeance and general screwing with people. There nothing preventing a troublesome academy instructor from waking up one day with a crippling conditioned phobia of bananas and literally no way of ever knowing why.
Somehow, I suspect that he won't find, "the extradimensional eldritch horrors from beyond time and space who have been stuffing apocalyptic ideas into your meatpuppet of a student have taken a personal interest in you, specifically", comforting.

That makes me sad, because it would be a hilarious way to fuck people.

Store-Rage Seal
Use when angry to calm down. Use again when calm to angry up.
___________________________________________________________
Hey, how do storage seals decide what object in front of them to seal?

Tripwire seals:
Made roughly half way through his career, these seals are linked such that when one is destroyed, the other incinerates itself.
They were made as part of a series of experiments to make seals cascade off each other.

Hmm, interesting challenge. I'm not sure if it's possible, but maybe?
"Henge gliders shifts. Hello Kagome. Please do not be alarmed. We are living beings like yourself from another world, one across the Out. We are the ones who are actually responsible for the Uplift concept and all the ideas Hazou has had, and the occasional otherwise inexplicable misunderstanding of social and cultural mores. We're sorry about those, by the way.
"Please put the explosive tags down. Killing Hazou won't get rid of us, we'll just connect to someone else. We're not the weird things from the Out that are relentlessly hostile. We don't like those things either. We helped you fight them and seal breaches, remember? We're not them. We're from somewhere else.
"Much better. Would you like some hot chocolate to help calm down? Our notes say that we have some cups sealed away.
"Where were we? Ah yes, our motivations. Right about now you're wondering how much of a threat we are. We are interfering because seeing the state of your civilization pains us, and we wish to peacefully elevate it to a higher level of development. We are particularly intrigued by the developmental potential for chakra. Our home does not have any. If properly harnessed we believe it could dramatically accelerate your world's developmental path from the one our world experienced. So much technology can be skipped or surpassed.
"Once you're feeling better, could you tell us how seals work, exactly? We've had a dreadful time figuring it out from context. They clearly have absurd potential but it's been dreadful trying to figure out what they could theoretically do if applied to improving everyone's lives instead of the violent applications that ninja are so focused on. Knowing how they work would help us come up with better research objectives for solving the clan's money problems and then moving on to things of wider import.
"Why now? Your description of the memory altering effects of the shifts gave us a way to talk to you directly without Hazou remembering so he would not be unduly alarmed. We don't wish to distress him."

- Yes.
Any sane SOP for dealing with unknown mind-controlling entities which may have been caused by sealing failures has to involve a) killing said entities and b) ignoring anything they say.

Cancer Seal:
Causes cells to divide rapidly on physical contact with the seal, using large amounts of a target's energy and giving them a massive cancerous lump where the seal is placed.
I don't understand the system well enough to do mechanics, unfortunately.
Seal can be used to create massive fruits and vegetables by applying it to the fruit/veggie at the end of growing season. This will make huge produce (at the expense of draining energy from the rest of the plant, meaning fruit trees and other perennials are less suitable for this as they may die if this is used extensively on them) which are able to feed several people. It won't look pretty, but they food will be just as safe to eat as normal versions, as the cells only continue to divide while the seal is touching them. This is a seal that Jiraiya recently acquired from Arikada, so he did not have much time to think about applications for it since he was busy being Hokage and searching for Naruto. Before him it was used as a particularly horrible and inefficient means of killing someone, although Arikada found some use for it as a steppingstone to the seals that created the giant exploding slabs of flesh she had grown off of herself.
In general, ninja don't care about making it easier for civilians to grow food better. Any sealmaster who did decide to use this seal on produce would not have wanted to eat it because it makes the fruit ugly and ninja (especially sealmasters) can afford better food.

Good point. Sadly, there's no room in that screening process for genuinely benevolent entities. Problematic. Maybe we could get him to develop a better algorithm before making contact?
- Location
- Yes.
Kagome would be disregarding every assumption he's made since meeting Hazou. Which would include him developing better algorithms, since he has no idea to what extent Hazou's corrupted the algorithm.

Every single competent unknown mind-controlling entity would have you believe that they are the genuinely benevolent entity. Without a prior framework, it is so impossible to differentiate that the safe assumption in all cases is to assume that they are not.

I'm half-tempted to have Hazou do this as 'a practical joke' (with sufficient evidence and other people backing us up to convince Kagome it really was one) and then OOC wait and see if it pings anything in-universe.

The Other Single Use Storage Seal
Once this seal is used to store an object, it can never be used to store a different object. This restriction is identity based, so it is will to accept the same piece of paper after someone writes on it. It sometimes doesn't work with large containers filled with many objects, such as a chest of coins.
Primarily, this is used to track money.

That would be interesting if terrifyingly unpredictable, but unfortunately the chances of Kagome attempting immediate murder seem rather high. Although maybe he cares too much about Hazou to be willing to do it instantly, I don't know. It'd be stretching credulity to suggest that even Hazou with his occasional inexplicably poor judgement would consider it a valid joke.
Here's a thought:
"Kagome, do you think it's possible there are other worlds besides ours that we're separated from by the Out? Maybe even ones with people on them?"
That seems reasonably safe. The response could tell us a bit about Kagome's thinking on the subject. Maybe even plant the seed of the idea that the Out is a place that separates worlds and there might be beings out there that aren't the awful things that try to flood in through breaches.

KAGOME: Yes, there's the Summoning Realm, for one thing. That's got people, even though the Sage forced them to look like animals.

In my head model the various worlds of the Sage's 'paths' are connected somehow, which is what makes travel between them possible. I didn't think of the Out being between them, but I don't know much about the dimensional physics at play here.
We could edit the question:
"Kagome, do you think it's possible there are other worlds besides the ones connected to the Sage that we're separated from by the Out? Maybe even ones with people on them?"
Perhaps follow it up with:
"What would we do if we could talk to them?"

Joking about sealing failures and the Out.
He's literally killed over less. She got unkilled for a little while, but the point stands. Kagome cares about the rest of the team and knows that a sealmaster who doesn't take these things seriously only has a matter of time before they end up guilty of suicide, murder, and possibly genocide simultaneously.

Leprechaun Seal:
Modified storage. Seal an object. Instead of unsealing, it creates a chakra construct copy that lasts for an hour. Can be used multiple times (not simultaneously). The original object cannot be recovered.
Created when J was still young and relatively poor. Store pile of gold, unstore pile of leprechaun gold, buy junk, repeat.
