Usually when someone is on the
defensive it means either two things;
1. The person defending himself has no opportunity or way to attack his opponent so all they are left with is running around and dodging
2. The one defending is not trying to beat the other opponent by fighting back and therefore is not giving it their all
offensively
It's clear that neither of them are trying because neither of them are tired or injured. Naruto's facial expressions make it hard to take him seriously, whether he is seriously fighting or not, but it's clear that neither one have given it their all yet.
Naruto needs to go all out if he wants to pressure or beat Sasuke, which is not possible if he is just going to keep running away.
It means he's not trying, what don't you understand?
This is why I don't like Sasuke, his fans are so retarded.
This is why I don't like Naruto or his fans. They are insecure little babies who pout in every thread that doesn't praise Naruto as being the strongest.
Instead of making stupid generalizations, how about you grow up.
