yaminaka means master and ino's specialty jutsu is controling ppl like a puppet master

LIKE Dietrich von Lohengrin FROM TRINITY BLOOD! HE WAS KNOWN AS PUPPET MASTER!

Dietrich, also known as the Marionettenspieler (Puppet Master), is the creator of the Order's foot soldiers, which he affectionately refers to as Death Hunters. These puppets are vampire corpses that are controlled using a lost technology that utilizes thin string-like living fibers transplanted on the skin. Once fused into the nervous system, the fibers sends out electrical impulses which allows the "puppeteer" to control his victim's nervous system and senses. This ability can be used on living beings as well, forcing the person under his control to perform tasks against their will. Despite his skills with Lost Technology, it is said that his most fearsome trait is his ability to play with the hearts of other people.
In the anime series, Dietrich fails to gain control of a rocket during a mission in Albion and Cain kills him for his failure. However, this does not happen in the novels, as Dietrich survives. (FROM WIKI) I KNOW HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH NARUTO BUT THERE! OH AND I AM MAKING A TRINITY BLOOD GUILD SINCE THERE IS NOT ONE!
