Innocuous Touch - can't be used on yourself. Specify that the pain is commensurate with the rank and provide examples for each rank. Change the rank to B.  Needs 6 handseals.

Description: Classified as a "generic illusion", Irui's elegantly named "Quiet Night" is simple practice. Quiet Night robs the opponent of their hearing by saturating the area with chakra, and infiltrate by riding the brain's processing. From here, Quiet Night can control what the target hears. It can be localized, to effect only an individual, or spread to multiple targets to disorient a team. Subsequently, it can be used to target particular sounds-- footsteps, voices, a knife draw, and more. The objective is to mask the caster's presence, via hearing. Unable to hear, the Target(s) will find coordination difficult, and will certainly not hear the caster slipping by. Quiet Night is best used in moments where stealth is absolutely needed allowing the caster to sneak past, disrupt communications, or deliver a killing blow.
Weaknesses:  Can target up to 3 individuals at once. Broken by loud sounds, such as explosions. Used too strongly, and the silence is alarming (although this could be to the Caster's benefit, as a distraction), therefore its application must be subtle, even progressive. Irui must be able to see, or at least keep a bead on his target(s). Detected by Sensors, and Genjutsu users.

Description: Classified as a "generic" technique, the Innocuous Touch can be applied with handseals, and triggers when something contacts the opponent, and immediately shuts down pain reception in the target, preventing the nervous system from registering the sensation. A handy technique it works as a temporary pain reliever on the target, with varying degrees of strength. The Genjutsu, as the name implies, is triggered by touching or making contact with the target, and can be sustained for however long is needed. This can be used as a reprieve, or to conceal an injury until it is too late. 

C: Burns, superficial injuries, minor cuts, minor poisons, etc. B: Torn muscle, moderate lacerations, bleeding, poisons, etc.A: Internal organ damage, broken bones, internal bleeding, etc. 

Weaknesses: This technique cannot overcome grievous, traumatic bodily harm (like losing a limb, or getting a hole blown through you). The brain will simply override it. While this technique removes pain, it does not prevent the loss of blood, or mean the target can walk on a broken leg (although that would be quite a sadistic use).

Name: Genjutsu: Encoding Skill
Rank: C
Power: D-S
Activation Cost: C (+ genjutsu)
Upkeep Cost: C-A
Range: Object
Speed: -
Element: Yin
Skill: Genjutsu, Ninjutsu, Chakra Flow
Classification: Supplementary
Requirements: Requires "Genjutsu" Skill
Parent Technique: N/A
Hand Seals: Dragon, Bird, Rat, Snake, Dragon, Rooster
Description: The Genjutsu Encoding Skill allows the user to turn a material or object into a trigger for a predetermined illusion. Once someone makes contact, the tactile sensation of the object transmits the Genjutsu and acts as the trigger by utilizing the principles of chakra flow and emission. “Encoding” enables the user to turn ordinary objects into illusory traps, create diversions, and carry out deception. Encoding Power is dependent upon the the applied genjutsu, with the associated Upkeep cost attached to the Encoded object, with the cost of Encoding attached.
Weaknesses: Once a Genjutsu has been encoded onto an object, the resulting trigger is indiscriminate, and will impart itself onto whomever contacts it next—friend or foe. Once an object is destroyed, so too is the illusion. Encoded objects can be detected directly by appropriate Doujutsu and Sensory techniques.

Name: Lightning Release Genjutsu: Scorchlight (A.k.a "My eyes!!")
Rank: C
Power: C
Activation Cost: D
Upkeep Cost: D
Range: 0-50m(or within line of sight)
Speed: -
Element: Lightning Release
Skill: Genjutsu, Ninjutsu
Classification: Offensive
Requirements: Genjutsu skill, light-source (e.g. flashbang)
Parent Technique: -
Hand Seals: Rat, dog, dragon, bird, tiger
Description: A fairly simple technique, somewhat versatile in use, and one that will almost certainly elicit the same "MY EYES!!". Irui's signature "Scorchlight" technique, that would form the light motif of his techniques, is a brutally efficient flashbang technique. Scorchlight first requires a light source, either generated by the caster, tool, or other method, and specifically attacks the sense of sight, and exploits the brain's eagerness to process sources of light. When triggered by that light source the Scorchlight technique both blinds, and emulates the sensation of intense heat, flame, and boiling liquid as the victim(s) eyes will appear to burn and sizzle; blinding them.

By attacking Sight, especially with an artificial light (e.g. flashbangs), Irui can turn even ocular abilities against the opponent, by ruthlessly exploiting the fundamental hardwiring of the human body. The intensity of the technique cannot be bypassed by simply closing the eyes, as the retina will process the chakra-imbued light.

Increase the Power of this technique by +1 Rank if used in a dark/low light environment. Decrease the power of this technique by -1 Rank if used in broad daylight.

Weaknesses: Naturally, by using Light, the genjutsu is thwarted by solid obstructions like walls, and obstacles that will impede the line of sight, and shield the eyes from the light.To further reiterate, just like the real world, closing the eyelids does not fully obstruct light.

Most effective in low-light conditions.

If the upkeep is associated with the object, you'll have to impart extra chakra into it to maintain it after the activation, or it'll have nothing to sustain the genjutsu. Chakra doesn't usually exist naturally in objects.

Description: An Anti-Sensing Technique, folded into a Genjutsu, that uses the caster's  chakra signature as the trigger. Sensors sense others and sensors by sensing with their senses, and thus the sensing sense, Irui wagered, can be attacked with Genjutsu. When activated, Demonic Illusion: Spymaster forcibly prevents those around the caster from focusing on the caster's presence, by suppressing their memory of the caster. Spymaster enables the caster to effectively become a ghost, with their presence masked from standard Sensory abilities. Attempting to lock onto the caster's signature will prevent the opponent's from focusing on them, thus requiring alternative, unusual strategies.

Spymaster Rank:Debuff :

• D
  
• C
  
• B
  
• A
  

Weaknesses: "Spymaster" extends to the Caster's Sensory range, meaning from a distance, the caster can be observed, but within that zone the caster cannot be sensed. The technique effectively limits shinobi to detection with indirect contact (i.e sand, insects), and visuals. Additionally, Spymaster produces sensory interference when interacting with sensor barriers; while the person may not be detected, the negative space they generate will be detectable passing through the barrier.

Description: A genjutsu technique crafted by Irui for brainwashing his victims; the Subsumption technique systematically pressures the victim into adopting different beliefs through Genjutsu. After completing the necessary handseals, Irui will attack the victim's mind with Lightning Release and Yin Release, sending an electrical charge through the neurons and twisting memories and images. Described as crude, Subsumption is excruciating as the victim is electrocuted, and their mind is forcibly injected with false memories.

Lightning, ragged and tinged, will spring from Irui's hand, striking the victim's head and body. He will require one turn to complete brainwashing. This technique will inflict C-rank psychological damage, and C-rank physical damage. Effects last for 5 IRL Months from the post date.

Weaknesses: Removed with Medical Ninjutsu of B-rank or higher. Because the Genjutsu takes place at both a physical and psychological level, it cannot be detected by Sensors. However, the Genjutsu can be removed via chakra-transfer and through Genjutsu Kai, if an ally detects it.

Speed of ligtning can't be instant.
5 IRL months from the post date is way too much for a single C-ranked amount of chakra.

Your jutsu is C-rank. Why does it take B-rank Ijutsu to remove it?
I can understand the jutsu not being detected by sensors after it is applied, and after the memories are implanted. But during the process and possibly some time after, it should be.
Quantity of memories imprinted on the target also needs more detail. Can you imprint a whole life-time on a single post?

This being said, what you're trying to achieve with this Genjutsu falls more under the category of Ijutsu in my opinion. Maybe a mix of both.

Genjutsu by definition has foreign chakra infiltrate a system in order to influence a victim's senses and manipulate their perception of the world. This foreign infiltration is usually temporary while the Genjutsu us sustained, and detected by sensors.
Perhaps if the effect was subtle enough I'd allow some Genjutsu to slip by unnoticed, but this effect is anything but subtle.

I'm very worried about allowing long term memory changes from Genjutsu alone. I feel that's something that should fall under Ijutsu. And this technique doesn't have enough drawbacks to ease my concerns.

After completing the necessary handseals, Irui will attack the victim's mind with Lightning Release and Yin Release, sending an electrical charge through the neurons and twisting memories and images. While the target is electrocuted, the brain is preoccupied, and unaware that Yin Release, riding the current, is distorting and creating memories. With Subsumption, the caster is able to fabricate events occurring over a short time frame (1 day to 2 months at most), drawing on the brain's own faculties to manufacture them.

Lightning, ragged and tinged, will spring from Irui's hand, striking the victim's head and body. He will require one turn to complete brainwashing. This technique will inflict C-rank psychological damage, and C-rank physical damage. Effects last for 5 IRL Months from the post date.

Weaknesses: Removed with Medical Ninjutsu of C-rank or higher. The technique can be detected by Sensors for one thread after its application, however this technique is NOT designed for active combat. The target must be restrained for the brainwashing to occur.  The Genjutsu can be removed via chakra-transfer and through Genjutsu Kai, if an ally detects it.

1. Edited the Medical Jutsu piece; reducing it to C.

2. I understand the bit about Sensory. Edited in Original. Sure someone can detect it, but only for a short while. The technique  isn't designed for combat, so Irui can't just pin someone and brainwash them on the spot.

3. Regarding the Quantity of Images,  I estimated 1 day to 2 months (60 days).

4. Not all Genjutsu are subtle. Please see my favorite technique above: Flash of Lightning Pillar produces both an actual blinding flash, and a genjutsu. Irui has a sadistic side, and he's using the electrocution as a way to transmit the genjutsu. When your body is being electrocuted you aren't actively thinking "Zomg this is a genjutsu!".

5. By the Ijutsu+Genjutsu reasoning, we should require Ijutsu to use Genjutsu, because it heavily involves the brain, psychology, and the nervous system.

Description: The antithetical twin to Irui's favorite contemporary genjutsu: "Demonic Illusion: Hell Viewing". Deceptively potent in the right hands, Seraphic Illusions rely on dreams, carnal desires, pleasure and the escape from reality. "Bliss Viewing", like its twin, allows the caster to reach deep into the target(s) mind, and pull forth their most  blissful desire, manifesting it before them, attuned to the context of the present.  Irui begins by weaving handsigns, and may make eye-contact, detection, or physical contact with the target, before infecting them with Yin Release. After a period of 1 turn, "Bliss Viewing" will settle in.

Ideal in situations where persuasion, and gentler tactics are required rather than brute-force psychological trauma. Special Effect: When layered with "Demonic Illusion: Hell Viewing Technique" and its derivatives, Seraphic Illusions can be used to taunt, and pressure victims--cycling between their greatest desires becoming their worst fears.

Weaknesses: Target must be within line of sight, or detectable. Can be cast through physical contact as well if a more subtle approach is required. At this level, a Seraphic Illusion is not ideal for live-combat, and is better suited for situations requiring a gentler ) approach.

Note: This will adhere to site rules, and anything over PG/13 is off-screen/heavily implied, you boobs.

Description: A sensory technique developed by the Hidden Cloud, inspired by the lightning storms of their mountains. "Cloud to Ground" allows a Sensor shinobi to extend long-range Lightning Techniques to their Sensor Range, connecting themselves to their targets like a cloud-to-ground lightning strike; enabling precision strikes from great ranges. When activated, and a technique  is fired, the technique will lock onto the target, crossing the distance between the caster and target like any projectile.
Weaknesses: When "Cloud to Ground" is activated, the opponent can return fire, using a Lightning Release technique that will follow the residual arc back to the caster. Can be blocked by obstacles, and fooled with Clones or other decoys. Follows standard "homing missile trope" rules. When the opponent leaves the Sensor's range, the technique can no longer track. Only works with long-ranged techniques (ex. "Thunderbolt") and will not work with close-range techniques (ex. "Raikiri" or "Hell Stab"). Must have Sensing technique deployed to use.
