Don't get me wrong, A's an immensely strong being with super human strength and speed. But I just don't think he's cut out to be Raikage. He's shown us, as fans, many faults in his character that could prove to be fatal in terms in governing a village. I personally believe Darui is more fit to be Raikage.

Let's look At A's strengths first.
a. A possesses a massive amount of physical strength.
b.the Raikage is noted for being incredibly fast
c.A has shown immense durability which he inherited from his father.
d.A is also skilled in lightning-based techniques, releasing a continuous surge of electricity from his body to form the Lightning Release Armour.
e.The electric armour can also work as a powerful defense.
f. He's quick to make decisions (when he decided to kill Bee and Naruto.)

But now, lets look at his weaknesses.
a. His pride is above our comprehension; he is simply too proud of himself.
b. He's not level headed in battle, without thinking, he'll rush into battle (as seen when he loses his hand against Sasuke, and quickly wants to enter the war when he hears about Kinkaku and Ginkaku)
c. He's quite selfish and vengeful (as seen when he wants revenge on Sasuke and Akatsuki for toying with Bee and the 3rd Raikage)
d.He's not very charismatic, not many people want to follow someone who breaks everything in sight.
e. He has so self control (his frequent outrages and fits)
f. He also showed hesitance to continue fighting Madara (as opposed to Tsunade standing up to him)

Now lets look at a more reliable option for a Raikage; Darui.

His Strengths include:
a. He learned how to create black lightning under the tutelage of the Third Raikage (which I assume wasn't easy)
b.His chakra reserves are great enough to not die of chakra exhaustion after using three of the Treasured Tools of the Sage of the Six Paths
c. He's very smart, cool headed, and deductive in battle (as seen vs Kinkaku and Ginkaku)
d. He possesses kenjutsu able to fend off one of the seven swords of the mist.
e. He shows no hesitation to any opponent (Sasuke and co, Kin Gin Brothers, Madara)
f.He has the kekkei genkai known as Storm Release
g.He's very humble, (displayed by his apologetic nature)
h. He will protect what's important to him at all costs ( A, C, Samui & Atsui, Kumo etc.)

Weaknesses include:
a.His sluggish mannerism. This could be seen as rude maybe idk haha
b.He might rely on his teammates a little too much (although he single-handedly solo'd a beach full of Zetsu with Black Lightning)
c. His obvious nature release weaknesses

To be honest, I can't think of any other weaknesses, comment if you have any others :p

Conclusion: I think No doubt A is stronger than Darui, but Darui is more fit to be a leader than A. Perhaps in terms of Military Generals, I would pick A, but Darui is definitely a more reliable Raikage than A.

So who do you guys think? Would you keep A or switch him with Darui? comment away NB!

I agree with lots of your points and Darui could possibly become a better Raikage but he's so lazy.

Deductive reasoning is dangerous.

When it comes down to it; he's not lazy. Can anyone show me an example of him being "lazy"?

I agree with most of what you say, but I still don't think he's quite cut out to be Raikage. Darui has few weaknesses, but he is lazy and not strong enough to be the Raikage. A's battle strength outweighs his weaknesses. He is very strong, and I believe he would also protect what means most to him, as seen when he was so emotionally upset when Bee was "captured" by Akatsuki. He also, if I remember correctly, chose to kill Naruto, but not bee.

I Agree with You to an Extent!
The Raikage is Definitely Strong, But He cannot Control his Emotions At all.
But I Really Don't Think Darui Is Raikage Material!

Again, please give me an example of his "laziness". If he's strong enough to be a damn war general and beat two of the most famous criminals in history, then I think he's strong enough to be Raikage. Also A only wanted revenge; he accepted B's death. He stated "I knew as Raikage I'd one day have to kill B"

I agree that he is a better leader, but his strength just isn't on that level yet. I would hope to see him be the next Raikage though.

If he could pull lightning armour i would agree, in terms of leadership yes. He would defo be a downgrade to the raikage line though

I agre - Darui seemed like a better option but those chose A because of the fact that his father was the Third.

Why? Darui has beat the kin-gin brothers and he easily beat Suigetsu, who all has A beat?

He got no speed and got no armor!
A Raikage without Speed is a weakling..

It took wit to do that more than power, and those sacred items to seal em. Other than that i haven't seem him excercise anything to a high kage level degree as A has and unfortunately we probably won't ever. I really like Darui he is pretty badass and has cool techniques smart. But raikage currently is pretty damn strong he takes on the 8 tails i don't see Darui doing something as such

Raikage A is really reckless.....he shouldn't of sacrificed not only his arm....but his "dominant arm."

Darui should definitely take over.
