Is Sasuke the best character in the manga?[Poll]

[HiddenSound]

You seem to have an unbearable hatred for minaturd.

He's an example of a character people like only for power. He has the personality of a robot.

 

[Lord Tywin]

I would not call that hatred... He does not offer much to be hated.

Was Minato on the poll a bait?

You're saying he's less than a potato lol

Don't diss on robots. Asimov was brilliant with them.

You're saying he's less than a potato lol

I personally find a potato to be more interesting than Minato.

Minato is one of those characters with hype, but turned to shit, like hiruzen.

 

[Conspirator.]

Minato has equal votes with Nagato and more votes than Orochimaru and Jiraiya...Lol I am done. I am sooo done.

Somebody said potato is more interesting than Minato; don't dare compare potato with Minato. Potatos can be cooked multiple ways (fried, baked, boiled etc.), can be added to almost any type of food, can grow in variety of conditions, can be eaten by many humans due to not being expensive, preferred food in war times and according to my mom it is good for diarrhea. This is not even 1% of potato and still more interesting than Minato on paper.

Minato is actually a better character than Jiraiya. But yes you are still right overall of course. Lol

a lot of fanboys and self-proclaimed literature majors up in here

ot:

I don't really know who the best written character is, but even then choosing one would be filled with personal bias. However, I am a fan of Kakashi, Danzo, Kisame, Nagato, and Shikamaru because of their back-stories and development. I actually like Kurama as well XD

Sasuke definitely was the driving force in the manga (He literally had the last couple chapters to himself at the end) but I was not a fan of his "ping-pong" shift in motives and ideals throughout the manga, although that's obviously over-simplifying it Lol

Naruto will always be one of my favourite characters because of his motivation, stubbornness, and unwavering drive to reach his goals but is he a complex character or a literary masterpiece? Naw Lol

 

[Draphsin]

You can disagree with me; now that is what we called opinion. You stating that Obito is a well-written character? Now, for opinions sake, I can or anyone else shouldn't bar you from holding on to it. But, you cannot state that this is some kind of literary fact or that your so-called opinion - which I am sure has been developed with such fastidious care - holds any weight.

Never once called my opinion literary fact, I don't know where you got that from. My opinion holds just as much weight as anyone else's on this site, not denying that either.

When Obito's characterization, by god, is horrendous. The writer's Editor(s) accepted that Naruto never changed, which means, his one sole ideal of aligning 'cool and acceptance' with the position of 'hokage' never truly altered. He remains the same mundane and absurd character he always was. So for Obito to assume Naruto's persona, immediately results in the death of creativity that his literal persona Tobi provided.

& That's a well thought-out opinion, but I didn't come here to try & suade anyone's opinion, especially anyone who may be biased towards sasuke in a thread asking if sasuke is the best written character. I'd be wasting my time.

Yes, I am mature enough, which is why I didn't attack your likeness of Obito, but merely said that calling him a 'well written character' with an allusion of a matter of fact tone is wrong. If it was again your opinion, then no harm done.

It's wrong according to your opinion, until you show me a degree in writing then you hold just as much weight as I do in determining who is a well written character & who isn't.

I can say sasuke is an awful character, you can say obito is awful, & neither opinion holds any more weight than the other.

I wonder why Obito sympathizers suddenly took to their heels.

If you're referring to me then no, I'm not "taking to my heels". I'm busy today as I said earlier, sorry for having a life.

this is wrong. sasuke didnt completely believe obito words because later on he did question danzo as to whether it was true or not and danzo confirmed it

I addressed all of this, simply asking danzo if he gave the order without questioning why or bothering to hear the other side of the story isn't comparable to gaining all the information that obito did. In fact the scan following the three you posted shows danzo explaining to sasuke that shinobi have to make sacrifices yet all he did was ignore it & crush him. [

] This same point was made by hashi when sasuke finally gained his sense back.

if sasuke had taken obitos words as the absolute truth am pretty sure he wouldnt need extra confirmation,

He didn't ask for confirmation about everything, merely the fact that danzo gave the order, the only thing he cared about when the story was much much larger than that.

that shows sasuke was in charge of his situation.

No he wasn't, obito was walking him around like his pet. [

and he didnt attack the summit, he infiltrated it sucessfully as hes plan was only to get danzo and nothing more but zetsu gave out his location which spoiled everything.

He attacked the summit, he killed natives to the land, & he didn't care what the circumstances were as long as he killed danzo. Zetsu ruined the element of surprise, okay well any logical person would then retreat if the 5 kage were on to your plan, but no sasuke decided to charge in & kill anyone in his path.

danzo is a scrub who found it fitting to do nothing while his village was being destroyed all because he wanted to take control, funny you hold his words as truth.

If you read my posts I said there is some truth to what danzo said, you're going to deny the fact that danzo literally made the same point that hashi made? [

] Shinobi endure, they sacrifice, that's what it means to be a shinobi.

Danzo may be scum, but he was right about some of the words he spoke & you can't deny that without denying what the concept of a shinobi stands for. He, just as obito went about his goals the wrong way, doesn't make him any less credible.

i really find it funny that a fanboy of obito of all people is criticising sasukes logic and trying to paint obitos in a better light

Find it funny all you want, I never said that either of them had particularly good logic, merely that obito's was better. Lol Nice try but I'm not praising anyone here, simply comparing.

which is pretty ironic consivering hes the fan of someone who found it ideal to put the world under his control mostly because of the death of his crush.

Kakashi wasn't against the idea & he doesn't strike me as the illogical type. [

] It was a possibility & a sound one at that, & the bold shows me that you're not worth my time anymore. Anyone who still believes that obito was going through with his plan solely because of rin isn't worth my time, I've done this dance before.

dat irony. obito and logic dont go hand in hand.

So he's illogical because he wants to create a world where everyone can live in peace & harmony? That logic doesn't make sense more than anything.

 

[Crossroads]

Obito is mediocre and poorly written. His motivation and so called "justifications" for his actions are childish at best. People like Itachi, who's also an Uchiha, just make Obtio look that much worse. Obito gave up and tried to enslave the world because a childhood friend/crush died, when there have been others who have gone through so much worse and yet, are still so pure.

You can't even compare Obito's background with Sasuke's. You can't compare Obito's background with a lot of characters. People like Sasuke, Itachi, Nagato.. hell, even Kakashi and Naruto had it worse than Obito, yet he went rogue and batshit insane. For what? Some female that didn't even fully acknowledge him and his feelings? Dude is whack.​

That is what criticism is about. Opinion and criticism are not the same thing. I am critically looking at both characters. There is a difference, but at least you accept that it's an opinion.

So coming to the last paragraph: I don't have to show anything to anyone. Either you think it is true, or it isn't. Either way, it doesn't matter to me. The fact still holds: Obito is a product of hero troupes, and you don't have to see someone's degree to find some facet of truth in it. It's just turning a blind eye to the whole logic.

a lot of fanboys and self-proclaimed literature majors up in here

Oh you!

lol, not a chance. Sasuke is surely an amazingly written character and had interesting development, but he's far from being best character in terms of depth quality. The bad quality about his character is, he doesn't learn people's mistake; particularly Itachi and Madara.

His particular bad quality part is his revolutionary goal. He had literary learned nothing from what Itachi told him and Kabuto, that's he's a failure and that doing all the work individually leads failure. He didn't learn anything from hearing Madara (the most evil character in Naruto) eventually knew the IT was never the actual goal towards peace. He learned nothing from Indra's history with his brother, Ashura, from the Rikudou.

That was at that moment is what made me think his character had gotten very poor. As Sir Derp Obito described him: he's just a brat with revenge issues.

The best written character is without doubt Madara Uchiha. His development from being a child, bearing the same ideals as Ashura, to losing his brother and discovering the truth of the Shinobi history via Uchiha Tablets, into such a wise person in regards to understanding the concept of Yin-Yang of the Shinobi world, was a magnificent writing from Kishimoto. Madara was just so logical, intelligent and realistic about his goals and character.

Lol.

 

[legarcon]

i think this poll became about popularity rather than a poll to find people opinions as to which character is the best written, if this was a serious poll nagato and kakashi should have way more votes, in my eyes this is a popularity poll

I don't agree with what you said (especially anything SDO says), but the bold. That's great.

I wouldn't say Madara is best, but he's Top 5 imo.

 

[BLAZE]

He's certainly the best written character because he's the most realistic IMO.

Characters like Nagato and Kakashi basically had one personality, then it changed drastically, then changed drastically again.
Naruto had the same personality throughout the entire show with some minor changes and maturing, but still essentially the same person.

Sasuke, on the other hand, went through many life changes, and like any real life person would, multiple personality changes, both minor and major. Like any real life person, he was lost for a while and unsure. And like many real life people, he found atonement and had a moment of self-reflection and rebirth. A lot of people her confuse "I don't like what his personality changed too" with "His personality change was bad." In my opinion, you can't just look at one change in Sasuke's personality; they're all individual pieces of a puzzle that paint a bigger picture.

This for me
but its all matter of choices

 

[Lord Tywin]

After nine pages of asshurt and insults, we can conclude, in this base solely, sasuke is thought to be the best written character.

i personally think Kabuto is a better character

He was certainly unique.
