So what happened to BSM?

[adeshina365]

Earlier this year, Naruto displayed the ability to simultaneously use both BM and SM:

Fans of a particular fan-base lauded this development and made many lofty claims and predictions in the process. Many predicted that Naruto would be capable of launching TBBs that would rival the Juubi's and others predicted feats even more grand than that....

The use of BSM saw through that Naruto would be able to react to incredible speeds:

While this is a commendable development, it pails in comparison to the feats that many were predicting. Naruto's BSM simply hasn't been shown to be force that many were expecting. If anything, the use of BSM can simply be chalked down as a measure of counteracting Juubito's Ninjutsu cancelling Onmyoudon:

I'm disappointed as well TBH. Hopefully we'll see improvements when Naruto gets both halves of Kurama.

It was used one-time only. This proves it was an asspull for the situation at hand by then U_U

@Bold, ''Buddy'' it was foreshadowed. Not like the asspull of sakura's power up.

I remember when Naruto first displayed BSM that his fanbase declared that Sasuke would never catch up to him...

dude the war arc wasnt even the first time naruto used it, it appeared first during nagato and narutos meeting then he used it when he he attacked madara susanoo. i dont think you know what asspull means.

The majority of war arc power ups are asspulls Lol

That's why naruto got a downgrade Sasuke couldn't catch on the guy. Kishimoto had to nerf him

Mind explaining which power ups besides BSM (it was foreshadowed)

 

[deadp00l]

sasuke fan logic: "i never saw how powerful it was so it must not be powerful", lots of people have explained sage mode but all in vain

 

[Champ]

Doesn't matter anymore Kurama is gone

You've presented an exemplary argument despite the fact that it's completely devoid evidences....

On a more serious note, this really displays the disparity in the perspective between the Mangaka (Kishimoto) and a certain fanbase.

If Naruto is anything like his mom, the shock of having a Biju removed from him will leave him out of the fight for a while. Seems Kishimoto is taking Naruto out of this battle so that Sasuke can fight Madara.

A scenario were Naruto is incapacitated with Sasuke racking up new feats sound enticing. Things will get interesting once Sasuke takes control....

What "lulz" do you speak of? Based on the manga BSM hasn't turned out to be the Juggernaut that many had predicted.

No. It was perfectly feasible. It was just Naruto combining 2 powers that he already had.

How so? And only a few people have gotten powerups.

Look who his opponents were though, obviously bsm steamrolls anyone who isn't god tier.

So does BM.....

Face it, BSM wasn't the improvement that Naruto fanboys though it would be.

I beg to differ, Naruto just never got the chance to show its capabilities. But Sm improves anything it's added to so naturally this includes BM.
