There are several options to combat Genjutsu:
 * A victim's chakra flow, if disrupted enough, can break the caster's influence. This "genjutsu dissipation" (幻術解, Genjutsu Kai) can be done by the victim themselves, (assuming they realise they're under a genjutsu's influence) or an ally who emits chakra into them;[6] jinchūriki who have formed a good relationship with their tailed beast prefer the latter method whenever they need it.[7]
 * Pain that is not caused by the genjutsu can bring victims back to their senses.[8]
 * If a caster's vision is obstructed, such as by the Hiding in Mist Technique, that at least prevents the use of ocular genjutsu.[9]
 * Possessing a Sharingan renders one largely invulnerable to genjutsu as their acute vision allows them to recognise its flaws and influence. They can also free others from genjutsu by inserting themselves into the opponent's illusion and release it.[10]
 * Deidara is somehow able to condition his left eye to break genjutsu.[11]
 * In the anime, kikaichū are impervious to genjutsu because their brain structures aren't sophisticated enough, allowing members of the Aburame clan a method to identify and counter genjutsu.[12]
 * In the anime, strong smells, such as those from Chilli Pepper Bombs, can counteract genjutsu.
