Kakashi comfortably beats Lee and Gai 1v1 in Taijutsu.

It's actually shown in the Manga that Kakashi has fought against Gai multiple times.
And it's stated in the Kakashi Novel that Kakashi beat Lee at Taijutsu without Sharingan.

Lee and Gai are good, but aren't as good as you guys think.
Without Gates, Base Lee and Gai are pretty much below Kakashi level in Taijutsu... and there are a good number of Ninja who are above Kakashi in Taijutsu

Kakashi beating genin Lee means nothing. Gai is an end product of Lee and he crushes Kakashi with just pure taijutsu.

for the same reason that their combat capability is even taken seriously in the sense of ninja...

Kishi never wrote the story though, just the drawings.

If we are using novels as canon arguments, I'm out

well kishi said they are canon so they are.. if you dontt like them i welcome you to leave seeing itd be one less itachi fan.

I like how we always question if something's cannon or not when it shows us something we don't like.[SUB]

They didn't need a Taijutsu Master, they needed someone who was strong enough to hurt Madara. Guy needed to use 8 Gates to make that possible.[SUB]

Re: What is a ''Canon'' medium?

to whom it may concern:

Wait are the novels even canon?
the fact that it is a separate ''novel'' makes it extra-canonical literature.

just being parts of the same universe & timeline doesn't make two unrelated stories into one.

The canonical text of ''naruto'' is closed between 700 chapters. it has nothing to do w/ the ''kakashi'' canon.
The Toneri Movie is not canon, ...it is a movie.

it doesn't matter who writes it either/

The databook lists Kakashi's taijutsu as lesser than Gai's, and I'm inclined to believe it.

what is happening in your sig? lol

is that scene canon? ( I couldn't resist)

Nah, it's from the Kakashi ANBU arc IIRC. I saw this scene and my first thought was that Obito is the coolest guy ever.
