Ninja with Best Reflexes

[fastrthnwind]

How does Obito and Itachi have great natural reflexes when they rely on their sharingan in battle, a tool that effectively predicts the movements of opponents and allowing them time to react and/or form a counterattack?

Reflexes are involuntary, meaning that there is no though put into their reactions except for how to position the body in order to avoid danger or deal with incoming threats that may cause bodily harm. The only way to demonstrate a persons reflexes if to see how fast they react to a sudden and unexpected attack that did not see already or several extremely quick attacks that does not allow time for though to evade all of them. The only people who have shown this ability consistently at a high level are Minato(the PRIME example), the raikages, SM Jiraiya, SM Naruto, SM Kabuto, Guy, Lee, and Neji.

While Tsunade may seem like a candidate, her ability to avoid attacks stems from her ability to read a persons movements and predict where they are going to attack and evade accordingly, not unlike sharingan precognition, but done more naturally through her training as a Medic-nin who needs to avoid battle first and foremost.

why is this even being discussed?
minato reflexes > narutoverse

minatos reflexes are on a tier of their own, nothing comes close.
ridiculous how the uchiha fanboys are actually trying to fight this, it's pathetic.

 

[Silverblade]

Tobi have the best reflexes.

 

[Prime Rib]

minato/tobirama

 

[theacknowledgedone]

Why Itachi Uchiha is not in the running for this, is beyond me right now........

 

[Mitarashi]

Sage mode Naruto
Minato.
Raikages.
Orochimaru ( Think about some of his fights ;D)

NEJI, Dat nigah never gets hit ( cept when he wanted too lol )

@SasoriOfTheRedSaand Me overrating his reflexes would be your opinion, and you are more than welcome to hold onto it. The fact that the guy reacts to every single attack says a lot. What do you mean? His intangibility and Kamui both use the same S/T jutsu. He simply teleports the body part that comes in contact with the attack for the former and sucks in his own or some one else's body or even an object completely for the latter. The intangibility is so because he accomplishes a back and forth teleportation so fast that his body appears to be flimsy. This is supported by the manga incident when his body parts were still in Kamui dimension and Kakashi attacked them.

Just like Sakura and Danzo's body guards did? Let's not go in feats and deciphering here, shall we? His Kamui understanding isn't such a colossal feat. Minato was on ropes and was unable to land a decisive hit until that occasion. In fact, had he not used FTG twice, the guy was toast, when we are fully aware that Kamui is extremely sluggish compared to intangibility; a fact Konan used to her advantage when she tried to kill Obito. On pure reflex action, a sluggish technique was used against FTG, so what are your thoughts on this?

Your opinion and frankly speaking, I don't care about it. Minjato himself disagrees. How many battles have you seen? Wait, I think, I can count them on my five fingers. His last battle with Bee ended in a stand off. Or have you forgotten that? The manga is just littered with his feats that makes him run back to his basement.

Simply because you don't like Minato doesn't in any way lower his reflexes or upgrade Obito's. Deal with it, Obito is very sluggish. Not because the Kamui is sluggish like you say.

And you say that Minato was unable to land a proper hit till then? Tell me, when did they infact fight before that time? Oh, right, Obito fought, but Minato did not. He had only seen Obito's intangibility once before. In-order to avoid a mistake, Minato went into battle with Obito without pre-conceptions once more, where the rope thing happened. Minato used that tryout to assess Obito's skills and pawned him with the next move.

He's got a sharingan, can see Minato coming at him in slow motion, can see Minato throwing a kunai to his head in slow motion, and still can't react to Minato's rasengan. Yeah, best reflexes in NV. And btw, Minato outdid B and A together, multiple times, after that incident. Why're you forgetting that?

 

[KingHashirama]

Seems like people don't know what reflexes are....

What a blasphemy. No one has better reflexes than Minato in this manga

Minato has speed.. his reflexes are the same as Naruto.. whose are the same killer B and Tsunade's.....

 

[MartinRico]

Gai and Lee. They instinctively dodge or block attacks. Unconscious Lee still has better reflexes than most lol

Drunken Lee > All *_*

 

[Klad]

Minato , 3rd Raikage , Hashirama and Itachi I think...

This really does not make sense to me. Sharingan is restricted but the comments are implying that this only implies to

Uchihas with a Sharingan since I don't see a complaint about Kakashi yet I see them for Obito and Itachi?

Sharingan is restricted but we can nominate people with Sage mode? and Byakugan?

Honestly, Nothing should be restricted.

 

[iSpeak]

4th Raikage has the best reaction time imo.

 

[Exaar]

Ay would be counted...until he got captured by Madara's susanoo clone.

He should still be counted.

He let his guard down because he was worried about tsunade, Was a mistake on his part.

People who use Sharingan have an advantage over people because they can actually predict an opponents moves anyways plus the only person who can still fight without his sharingan is Kakashi so he is counted.

Sage mode actually does enhance a persons natural reflexes as seen when SM users can dodge projectiles and other attacks that would normally kill a person and avoid any blows that any normal person would not be able to dodge.

The byakugan doesn't have any sort of precognitive abilities like the sharingan that allows them to see the way an uchiha can. Remember Neji in his battles? He reacted to many attacks on reflex alone like with his battle with Kidomaru and the spiders/kunai one of the best shown reflexes in the manga.

Tools that allow a person to actually predict moves (meaning actually see them before they happen like a sharingan user can) keeps them from having to use their own reflexes to avoid damage.

Itachi, his reflexes were faster than a lightning strike (Kirin). No one can compete with that.

Obito would be my #2.

He reacted and even dodged V2 Raikage and Minato, the reason why Minato managed to Rasengan him was because he outsmarted him..going just by reflexes Obito is faster.

 

[Lightning Release]

Minato is FAR above everyone... I'll put Naruto in second.

Itachi saw the whole thing happen. Sasuke basically showed it to him. He just blocked just as Sasukes hand came down to direct lighting at him. No reflexes involved. It is not humanly possible to react to lighting no matter who they are, not even the so6p body is physically capable of doing it. It is 1/3 the speed of light, something that the human brain cannot even process.

All obito did was predict using the sharingan and Kamui.

Minato won the battle in reflexes. Otherwise Obito would have phased through the attack. Obito got hit several times in hat match and Minato was never touched during their battle.

I love how only the feats of Uchihas have been acknowledged by most like the other characters haven't done anything.

I'm talking natural instincts- not magic eyes that give people perfect instincts, that's boring. It's everyone else who elaborated.

Third Raikage and Kabuto take this in my opinion.
