Even though he was severely weak, he did all this sh*t.

Assisted the assassination of the Fourth Kazekage and even stated to be able to assassinate Hiruzen himself. Definetely Kage Level.

Too bad he died of a illness. Like any other badass *cough*Itachi*cough*

 

[Gein]

Definitely a badass.

He couldn't touch Lord Third though

 

[SenseiSama]

The guy probably had the potential to unlock Ash Bone jutsu but unfortunately we'll never know :/

I'm guessing maybe he would have had Hamura's KKG techs if he transplanted Neji's eyes

You stupid or what ?

 

[Gerkak]

He was strong but by no means on hiruzen's level.

 

[Venomous Cobra]

He was strong but by no means on hiruzen's level.

No one is on hiruzen level, that is just way too high man...

 

[Megatolium]

True but he could've killed Hiruzen at the time. As Orochimaru's aid obviously.

 

[LordRaikage]

hiruzen is weak, from what i've seen all manga kimimaro destroys

 

[always thinking]

in his prime, the third would have a tough battle against kimi, but the third at his age could not have been able to handle kimi. his age caught up to him much like in the battle with oro.

 

[ChicagoJhawk]

Wish his clan was still alive

 

[J Man]

Yes he was a boss. He was ahead of most Kages except for Hiruzen at that time. The disease nerfed him pretty badly that he lost to Gaara and Rock Lee. His Shikusumyaku jutsu was boss but it had to be nerfed so Kishi can move on with Naruto vs Sasuke Vote 1 battle lmao.

 

[sagemode07]

Rock lee / Gaara vs Kimimaro is one of my favorite fights
I like all 3 fighting styles, especially Drunken Fist lol

 

[Pukkake Pokayo]

Kid Gaara alone dealt with him. Gaara could've preserved more chakra also and not flooded an entire forest as that was sloppy.

Wish his clan was still alive

They were abusive psycho's. Nice kkg though.

No but I think you are considering you would rather throw insults than use logic. Kimimaro's clan is named after Kaguya, Kimimaro has Kaguya's KKG. What does that say?

Furthermore, Kishi divides power in half you should know that by now, Uchiha+Senju = Hago - Hyuga + Kaguya = Hamura. Hago inherited the Juubi's body and eyes so Hamura would've inherited the Jinchuuriki's body and eyes.

And I never mentioned power levels, I'm strictly talking about KKG techniques. Just because Uchiha have Enton or Susanoo doesn't mean they have Indra's power, Kimimaro having Ash Bone potential doesn't mean he can reach Kaguya's or Hamura's power levels

 

[SSU]

I his prime he is definitely kage level. But I like to imagine that the original 4 hokage are above even kage level. So he is kage level but not hokage level.

 

[KingHashirama]

not really. Someone like Kakashi would've whipped him. Note that kakashi was not kage tier in part 1

 

[KesOnFire]

I def liked his fighting you are making me want to go back and watch that fight lol

 

[BlacLord™]

He was in the top range for Part 1 but let's not overrate him.

He was having trouble with a 13 y/o in a fair and square battle. In Part 2, he was considered nothing more than backup to the main show. Ill or not, his abilities were what we saw and they don't weaken just because of that. It affects stamina, and nothing more.

So you call logic adding the name of the clan to a character and them guess some shit and do theories and then say that he could reach ash bone jutsu potential nah, you needa have Kaguya chakra since she mixed all kkgs into that shit or something like that also I didn't hear about Kaguya clan's creator being Hamura.

Nor did you heard that for the hyuuga clan bit they're obviously descendants
Kaguyas bone kkg is kimmimarus like her byakugan is hyuuga kkg. No guessing really or any made up shit. No adding either, his clan is actually named after her and has one of her kkg so saying he could've possibly mastered ash bone is not bullshit. Btw this is a forum for discussion not just stating the obvious all the time so guess what theories are more than acceptable especially since the manga is over
