Is Hiruzens God of Shinobi title just Hype?

[KingHashirama]

not in the beginning of the series when some ppl may not have even known what a kage was.

Hokage = strongest shinobi of the village

in beginning of the series. lol. The word "Hokage" was introduced in the first episode i believe.

 

[LegendaryAce]

He soloed Edo Hashirama, Edo Tobirama and Prime Orochimaru when he was 68! He also stopped the Shinsusenjuu!!

So his confirmed title of GOS is something which is backed up by incredible feats! Prime Hiruzen is above all U_U

Any other hokage would have probably done the same (and alot of other kage in that situation)

and freaking karin wrecked the mini shinsusenju

 

[Tyrannus]

he was called that back in part 1 when the power scaling was much lower

Damn so many Hiruzen haters and hypocrites.

Why do these boys disregard Kishimotos words. '-'

 

[apsri]

Yes, just a BS Hype...

He's not even good enough to fairly match against most of the Top 10...

I can't think of any non-top 10 character who can challenge a top 10 character now. Not with the Juubi Jins, Naruto and Sasuke's power-ups, and the Ootsutsuki family.

Hype? You must be mistaken; please refer to this thread to understand Hiruzen's Power:

I disagree. The Hokage is not necessarily the strongest shinobi in the village. Naruto, for example, is stronger than Tsunade, and has been so since he gained Sage Mode, and yet he was not Hokage. Kakashi is stronger than Danzo, yet Danzo was appointed as the Sixth Hokage Candidate.

hype will be hype until the manga shows the necessary feats​

It was his mastery of so many jutsu that gives him that nickname. He also surpassed Tobirama at a young age. I dont think it means he was strong as Hashirama tho. Just that during his era he was undoubtedly the strongest until Minato came along. I dunno how strong he is especially with staff mode Enma. It would be awesome if he summons him.

I don't understand either. They gleefully believe in other hype, but Hiruzen is a joke? Why?

They fear Hiruzen, they fear him and fear he will solo their fave.

because unlike say hogoromo who actually has feats associated with his hype,there really isn't any feat associated with a prime hiruzen. then we got to see what the other hokage can do makes what little we know about prime hiruzen seem like a joke. the whole knowing every jutsu in konoha is a joke. that would mean he would know jutsu like FTG and trust he would be using it against orochimaru or even currently.

 

[CloudWalker]

The Hype is REAL! Anyone who says otherwise is just a hater..

Don't believe me, check out this thread! Believe in the Hype! (Hiruzen 5 Leggo)

What feats? Used Creation of All Things to make stuff and had his brother's help to fight Juubi which we didn't even see. In fact, they sealed the Juubi, so they probably didn't even beat it to submission. May had set a trap with those sealing stones and never even lifted a finger against it.

Based on feats, any of the top 10 could solo Hagoromo. Unless, of course, you go off of hype.
