Why the heck is this guy called a genius, his part one intelligence stats are 2.5 and part three only a 3( that's lower than part 1 Sakura and she's a moron)

I considered that he might be a genius in taijutsu but he doesn't even have a 5 in that, sure he was able to learn hyuga techs without training but he is a hyuga after all.

He's honestly shown nothing other than mediocre analytical prowess, outmatched by every other so called genius.

Im a fan but his genius is all hype imo.

It has to do with his abilities in the hyuga family I think.

He was smart enough to beat Kidomaru, who was on Shikamaru's level.

Part 1 Sakura is a moron? o_O she had the most knowledge out of all the K11... she is the only one who didn't need to cheat on the chunin exam..... shes a moron?


Neji is a genius because of his mastery of the byakugan at a young age.

Sakura and Shino are = in intellect.

Genius compared to everyone else his age but nothing extraordinary

He'll never be a genius in the sense of Itachi, Minato, Hashi, or anyone really he was able to advance at really young ages

Neji is a genius by Hyuuga standards. He's average by real standards.

I get that but in my opinion being a book worm does not make you intelligent (Sakura), but that's just me.

I get that that's why he's called a genius I just think its undeserved, part 1 kakashi had a 4.5 in intelligence- he was a genius! Sasuke is a genius, orochimaru is a genius, itachi is a genius, zabuza could be considered a genius, minato was a genius.

Neji just doesn't fit the title IMO.

He's a genius because he was right in Part I. You DO have to be born into greatness. Hard work doesn't mean shit in this manga anymore!

He knew it before Kishi knew it!

zabuza chunin exams, killed everyone else- genius in the art of murder (debatable)

Sasuke- analytical prowess far superior to Neji's as is his ability to learn new techniques - I meant in relation to neji he is a genius ( debatable whether he is by normal standards)

It was in comparison to the other students at the time, he was the strongest of the Konoha kids at the time.

The last real work Naruto did was learn the rasengan. After that he learned he could spam his Uzumaki Heritage to learn anything he wants in 2 days max. After that he stopped working at all and just started leaching off of a chakra demon.

If hard work meant anything anymore, Lee would be OP. Have you looked at most top 10 lists? 90% KKG and Jinchuriki users.

Yes it was the most trolled thing in the manga along with most of the akatsuki's deaths

Complete bs.
