When you think about it, Kakuzu's defeat wasn't that bad

How many shinobi do you see that consistently use some sort of Shadow Clone in their fighting style?

To my knowledge, we know of 4 that reliably incorporate them; Kakashi, Itachi, Hashirama, and Naruto.

And even then, most don't use them to the extent that Naruto uses them. So, instead of thinking of it as embarassing, consider this. He simply didn't know what to expect, because he's never encountered it before!

Bunshin feints are obviously used by shinobi, but not nearly to the same degree as Naruto. And when you conisder that Naruto is pratically a Bunshin feint master, it really isn't all that embarassing for Kakuzu.

Hell, Part 1 Naruto tricked Kakashi initially with a Bunshin Feint the first time he met him.

He stated he would take up a form specifically to counter such a fighting style. Then he was fooled by the same attack he just saw 30 seconds ago.

Like I said, Bunshin feints are only used that constantly by Naruto.

Kakuzu most likely wasn't expecting him to try the exact same thing twice.

Lawl, acting like that other thread never happened huh? ;)

OT: I had an issue with it cause Kakuzu, an experienced ninja who fought with Hashirama and lived, got fooled by the same trick twice.

I love all the people saying how "kakashi got owned".

Kakashi was baby sitting team 10. All of his fights, he's the baby sitter. LIke against pain when he baby sat choji, and died for him.

Kakashi knew that shikamaru was about to kill kakuzu, so him letting it get that far is understandable.

To all the people saying kakuza>>>kakashi.... may i ask you... why didn't kakashi use kamui once all fight?

It wasnt, unless you can distinguish between clones you are always at risk of getting fooled by thinking you are targeting the original but it turns out to be a clone

either people are too stupid to realize this or they just follow what some guy said like sheep

Well he doesn't have sharigan or eye dojutsu so he can't detect the real Naruto but his defeat is bad he lost to Naruto without sm or bm and an incomplete rasenshuriken after he owned kakashi choji and ino

kakashi is a smart ninja he would have used kamui if he could maybe he didn't unlock it yet or wanted to conserve chakra and by the time he uses kamui another mask blows him up and don't say babysat because without those ppl there kakashi would have died quick no way he can fight kakuza or tendo pain one on one

We don't know the details of his Hashirama "fight" though. It could, and probably was one-sided; a kamikaze mission.

I didn't much like Kakuzu's death but really, who would have thought that someone would try the same thing twice in one stint?

Maybe so. It could have also been an assassination attempt that went wrong and resulted in a fight. Can't say which it is either way.

And he's been around for over 80 years. I just kind of expected him to expect the unexpected. Too much expectations :mad:_@:
