ANBU
ANBU black ops. is a group within most villages consisting of hand picked specialists. A ninja of any rank can be chosen to join the ANBU if they show a great amount of promise and dedication. One does not get this rank by asking for it. It is given to a ninja chosen by the Kage and Head ANBU of their village. You can be picked to be ANBU at any rank or age. Once chosen this does advance your rank into the ANBU/Sage points bracket and allow you to earn a maximum of 20 points each week. Once you join the Anbu you will be trained in the ANBU system (may be different per village). At a certain point you training will shift to be in a special field of your choice. This point is determined by your ANBU leader.

Sage
A Sage is a person who is able to utilise Senjutsu, or sage arts. They also must be a master of the Sage Mode transformation. This means being able to balance their body with their own chakra and Natural energy to achieve a mode beyond normal chakra. They also must have a contract with a specific animal sage to become a Sage. Doing this will allow them to reach a sage mode corrisponding to the animal they are contracted to as well as be able to learn senjutsu jutsu. Typically only jonin will be able to make these contracts as most animal sage's will require you prove your worth to them in very extreme ways. However, this can be achieve through any rank if given the okay. (to start work towards a Sage mode you must speak to the kage of your village about it, and it will be discussed in a kage meeting before you are allowed to work towards it.)
