Sakura vs Naruto- Analysis

[juliop]

Id say a valid comparison is in order now that sakura thinks shes anywhere near narutos level. Ill compare several key points in a shinobis strength: Raw Strength, stamina, speed, intelligence, defense, chakra pool, chakra control, and jutsu on a scale of 1 to 10.

Raw Strength:

Sakura has the upper hand here thanks to her new jutsu and already insane strength thanks to her chakra control probably making her in the top 5 strongest shinobis to date.

Naruto is nothing to scoff at in this regard as well considering in sage mode his strength incereases several orders of magnitude able to easily toss around giant summons (dog/rhino) and lift a massive statue without yet mastering sage mode. He doesnt yet have many feats of strength in KCM but its safe to say in kurama bijuu mode his strength was great considering he was manhandling the bijuu.


Score: Naruto-8 Sakura-10

Stamina:

Sakura`s Stamina thanks to her precise chakra control she is able to wast less chakra and with her hyakugou she might have mitotic regeneration making her stamina insane.

Naruto excels in this regard its easy to say he is in the top 5 if not the top. only shinobi i can think of that might beat naruto in this regard is the third raikage/hashirama. he has show time and again that he can throw everything he has and still come back at full power. feats of stamina include making massive amounts of KCM clones and fighting all the Edos; fighting all the previous jinchuriki, obito and madara and fighting the juubi more than anyone.

Score: Naruto-10 Sakura-6

Speed:

Sakura has shown no speed feats at all in this regard well just assume she has normal-above average shinobi speed.

Naruto is probably the fastest shinobi behind Minato. Feats include surpassing raikages top speed(raikage said to be the fastest shinobi alive) nough said.

Score: Naruto-10 Sakura-3

Intelligence:

Sakura has a great intelect going back to her analasys of the zetsu clones and her fight with sasori.

Naruto has always been touted as an idiot, but as we have seen he tends to be a genius in the battlefield considering his battle with pein, developing a strategy to free the bijuu from tobis control and his ability master A and A-rank jutsu in a matter of days.

Score: Naruto-6 Sakura-9

Defensive abilities:

Sakura has shown no real defensive jutsu or abilities.

Naruto has sage mode wich grants the ability to sense attacks before they land like in his fight against the third raikage, his kcm also grants a powerfull cloak that can withstand a puch from the raikage, fire and a powerfull lightning storm the juubi generated.

Score: Naruto-8 Sakura-3

chakra pool:

Sakura hast really shown anything in regards to abnormal chkra pool but thanks to her new tecnique it is indeed greatly increased by storing chakra in her forehead(wich is massive).

Naruto, well this is a no brainer. kakashi has always praised his massive chakra levels (probably thanks to his uzumaki lineage) add to that the kyuubii and you have a shinobi unmatched in that regard except by the sage of six paths. He has alos now most likely recieved chakra from all the other bijju wich has yet to manifest.

Score: Naruto-10 Sakura-7

Chakra control:

Sakuras chakra control has always been better than anyone in team 7 and thanks to that she excells in medicall ninjutsu wich requires such a skill. going by shizunes comment on her inabillity to master hyakuguo its safe to say sakura is a top 10 in this regard.

Naruto`s chakra control was lacking in the begining unable to even make a kagebunshinwith kakashi commenting it takes naruto 10 times as much chakra to make a clone compared to sakura. but as the series progressed he overcame this dissability with both his massive chakra pool but mostly with training. Considering making a rasengan is the ultimate showing in chakra control naruto definitely is no lightweight here. His showings against the juubi serve only to reinforce this being able to controll massive amounts of chakra, mould it to each specific shonobis needs and even remotely control it all ( albeit with massive stamina drain) shows hes easily top 10 possibly outclassing sakura aswell.

Score: Naruto-10 Sakura-10

Jutsu:

The amount of jutsu sakura has been shown using can probably be counted on one hand. her only powerfull jutstu is probably hyakuguo and maybe miotic regeneration(both are most likely s-rank)

Naruto doesnt have a large jutsu set but the few he does have are s-rank and beyond.

short list of jutsu i know of the top of my head:

Rasengan A-rank
fuuton rasenshuriken S-rank
Bijudama S-rank (God rank? changes the landscape)
Sage mode S-rank
kagebunshin wich combined with KCM easily make em S-rank
lots of rasengan varients A-rank
KCM (mostly an ability but) S-rank


Score: Naruto-9 Sakura-4


Final Tally:

Naruto: 71/80 or 8.9 average score
Sakura: 52/80 or 6.5 average score


As you can see naruto outclasses sakura in almost ever aspect. now this is all from my own point of view reading the manga and analyzing each of their abilities so you can consider it how you see fit, but i dont see how she can even compare to naruto. on the upside at least she wont be a burden anymore =D.

Sakura can't stand in the same league as of yet.

 

[9tailsJinchuuriki]

Why do you give Sakura a 3 on defense, when she doesn't have any?.

 

[Regulus]

I agree. In my opinion you gave a very fair analysis. With this latest chapter Sakura is leaps and bounds above her previous self and is kage level, but she is not quite up to Naruto and Sasuke.

i feel that her strength adds a bit being able to block and medical ninjutsu training(wich obv would include defending oneself being a prime target).

idk about intelligence. yeah, sakura is booksmart but her combat intelligence isn't very high. on the other hand, naruto used shadow clones to figure out a strategy to defeat kakuzu and was quick to use sage mode against preta path to turn him into stone. your sasori and zetsu examples are only an application of her medical knowledge. stamina is off too, 6 compared to 10 is very generous when it should be more like 0 to 10 LOL

Eh shes still a major asset being able to make antidote to sasoris poison, figuring out white zetsus abilities/ties with hashiramas cell. and its not just my word several characters in the manga tout her intelligence. so i think a 8-9 is fair obv not 10, shikamaru would mind rape her anyday.

Shikamaru would break the scale.
