I've seen how most NB members compare characters based on power only, thus the top ten/twenty/thousand lists.

Guys, remember in part one where it taught you not only to base the fight out of sheer strength but your intellect and instincts? Not to rush in to battle, like naruto, but to think things through, like sasuke.


What i'm trying to say is... Sasuke, in his condition, has a pretty good chance against naruto if he plans accordingly. We seen a glimpse of EMS sasuke's power in the cave where his susano'o had arrows with ameratsu tips. Also, from part one sasuke was known as a smartass, that counts for something.

People underrate Sasuke a lot because he's not OP level or doesn't have a rinnegan, and mainly because "itachi" is better.


so ya~

Itachi is all that and a bag of chips.
Seriously that was a bad example
Itachi is way smarter and plans well into the future even after his death.
Every single person in the manga is always saying how smart itachi is.
Also why was his name in parenthesis ?

but you seem to forget naruto has been increasingly surprising when it comes to battle tactics, or are we just talking about part 1 naruto?

Being unpredictable and crafty in battle is something Naruto is quite good at. Power may not be the only decider in battle but with current feats, Sasuke still loses.

people still think itachi is better than sasuke, which is false.

At the end of the day all will die so why bother arguing.

So first this started out saying power alone doesn't determine the victor.

Then it turned into a 'Sasuke has a chance against Naruto' thread.

I'm sorry, that's how i'm seeing this. Lol

read carefully. I started using the claim that power doesn't determine the victor, then i gave an example of how sasuke has a chance against naruto because sasuke is known to be smart

Sasuke in Part I was smart, Sasuke in Part II is an emo who is only intent on destroying the village his brother sought to protect.

Just had to say it.
