I mean there's no enhancements, there's no foreign chakra present in his body.

all he's doing is releasing his own chakra.

is that not still base form??

I guess you could call it that but if that's the case then where is advanced form? Every single ninjutsu is base form unless it's from Naruto/Jinjuriki or Sasuke since they use another's chakra sometimes for their techniques.
Also their is nothing more advanced when it comes to taijutsu than the 8 gates so what could you possibly mean?

So please explain your point better.

I consider 8 gates a suicide tech. Which it is.

No because he's forcibly releasing more chakra than he'd naturally be able to.

No it isn't, gai is augmenting his own body by releasing the natural limiters on his body, making 8 gates it's own form

There are many types of base form...

I don't see it as a base form.

Still what new was added. he didnt get a bijuu, he didnt get a dojutsu. all he does is allow all his natural chakra to flow without limiters

Very subjective topic, but he's still enhancing his abilities so it cannot be considered base. People with Sharingan, Susanoo, and Byakugou all depend on their own chakra without a foreign source, yet none of those users would be considered at base.

Still gets the W in most vs matches, dying afterwards doesn't effect the fact that you beat your opponent

Stalemate. If it was the opponent who caused him to die afterwards by using a suicide tech.

a mode that requires activation and boosts speed and striking power isn't a base form to me. It's like calling the 3rd and 4th Raikage's nintaijutsu their base form.

You do realize that all you did was repeat what I said to him right?

Also I was asking him to explain his point of view since saying the 8 gates was basic due to his version of basic is everyone's, for the most part, ninjutsu.
