Kakashi's hype and portrayal in the Naruto series: the legend of Sharingan Kakashi

[Selan]

Here I will post everything I know about Kakashi's hype and portrayal. Due to the limited number of images one can put in a single post, I'll divide the collection in four parts, each one about a different version of Kakashi over time during the manga. Well I hope it will help people to debate properly and to learn things that they didn't know.

Kid Kakashi (someone who completed the Ninja Academy at 5yrs old and the Chunin Exams at 6yrs old and at no more than 10-12 yrs old was a jonin and could learn Rasengan and from that even create Chidori by himself) is portrayed as a talented genius who can fight even an invisible opponent, by feeling variations in the air current to track his movements.

Kid Kakashi's speed is praised by a seasoned Iwagakure jonin who is impressed, and Kakashi himself underlines how fast is he when he is attacking with Chidori dashes.

With his actions before the Start of Part 1 (so mostly in his days as an Anbu probably), Kakashi made his name famous along the ninja countries, and the legend of "Kakashi of the Sharingan" was born.

Part 1 Kakashi was hyped as the best ninjutsu user in Konoha, even above the Third Hokage who has the "Professor" hype.

Spoiler

You must be registered for see images

Part 1 Kakashi was portrayed as far more powerful than Kabuto. Kabuto, even as an arrogant person, was afraid to fight against Part 1 Kakashi, running away even when Kakashi openly challenged and taunted him. I guess someone will bring Jiraiya and Orochimaru's statetements about Kabuto and Part 1 Kakashi being on the same level, but they have no value, frankly, as Orochimaru and Jiraiya were far from Konoha from a long time so they couldn't exactly gauge Kakashi's power level, and Jiraiya didn't even know Kabuto's since he never met him before. Not to mention that by feats Kabuto is outclassed by Part 1 Kakashi, who is much faster plus has Sharingan precognition, better taijutsu, can use 1000 ninjutsu, can fool him with Kage Bunshin and kill him with a Raikiri that he can't heal from; and Kakashi also has a better portrayal if we gauge his other accomplishments compared to Kabuto's (Kabuto was troubled by Naruto, he understimated him and everything, but he had trouble). And the fact that Kabuto ran away from Kakashi speaks louder and clearer than everything.

It's worth note that the same Kabuto who was portrayed as below Part 1 Kakashi, as he didn't dare to fight against Kakashi even if the latter openly challenged him, could fight against Tsunade and even with the luxury of not having any killing intent and not being serious for most part of the fight.

Part 1 Kakashi is portrayed to be not that far from Kisame's level, as it was stated by Itachi that a fight against Part 1 Kakashi would be very tough and difficult for Kisame, and even if he would win he will receive heavy wounds (and it's not like Kishimoto didn't think about Kisame's strength, because Itachi warned him do not ever use his "big flashy jutsu", clearly referring to things like Dai Bakusoi Shoha, Senshokuko and Daikodan he showed later in Part 2). Kisame will also refere to Part 1 Kakashi as a worthy opponent, compared to Asuma who he was fighting previously.

In the databook, Start of Part 2 Kakashi is hyped as someone who as acquired enormous strength and experience on the battlefield, as a very powerful shinobi. He is called as a legend and as a genius ninja, who is still increasing his powers and improving the usage of his Mangekyo Sharingan, even if he is not an Uchiha clan member. Kakashi's Mangekyo Sharingan with Kamui is hyped as impossible to escape once the target finishes under Kakashi's glance.

In the databook, Kakashi's Kamui is hyped as a unparalleled dimensional dojutsu. It is said that no technique can compete with Kamui and that no matter what, once one starts getting warped he can't move away from the space-time hole. It is said that no defense is possible against Kamui.

Spoiler

In the databook, Kamui is said to be a Mangekyo Sharingan with godly eyes, a powerful dojutsu capable to warping everything in the other dimension. Kamui's warping speed is hyped more than once and it is said that only a skilled user of Kamui can teleport himself, implying that Kakashi completely mastered the left eye during the War Arc, as he showed that he learned also to teleport himself.

Deidara, who could defeat Gaara in the desert, was completely confident about fighting against Orochimaru and was praised by Nagato as a key member in the Akatsuki, was afraid at the idea of fighting against Start of Part 2 Kakashi, before even knowing that Kakashi had the Mangekyo Sharingan.

Kakashi and Gai, without going all out (Kakashi didn't use the Mangekyo Sharingan and Gai didn't use the 7th Gate), are confident to handle Sharingan and Rinnegan enhanced V2 jinchuriki, and actually they show that they can do that, counterblitzing and landing attacks on them, and then pushing them back again and fighting them for an extended period of time without being overwhelmed at all. Albeit all their power, Killer B and KCM Naruto didn't have the same confidence at all and were showed and portrayed as in big trouble against the same opponents (B and Naruto were already in trouble against the weaker version of the jinchuuriki, let alone the V2 versions). Just compare how Kakashi and Gai are portrayed much better than Naruto and Killer B, for example the difference in their confidence and how well do they handle the jinchuriki dashing against them, while Naruto and B couldn't do the same as well.

Kakashi's father, Sakumo Hatake, was hyped to being far more powerful than the Sannin. In a manga like Naruto, where the younger generations surpassing the older is a primary element, no one should think that Kakashi didn't surpass the Sannin by far (even before the Double Mangekyo + Rikudo chakra power up), as he had at the very least the same talent and potential that his father had, plus great powers like the Sharingan and the Mangekyo Sharingan that he completely mastered.

In the databook, Kakashi's equal, Might Gai, is said to be more than a match for anyone in the Akatsuki. That's without even considering the Eight Gate, as with that Gai would clearly destroy any Akatsuki member, actually, he would destroy the entire Akatsuki in a couple of seconds.

Start of Part 2 Kakashi is widely praised for his incredible level of prowess in multiple areas, above shinobi who are specialized in every field. Better taijutsu than Rock Lee, better Sharingan usage than Sasuke, better sense of smell than Kiba, better smartness than Shikamaru. Even if he isn't fighting seriously, Sakura (who in the same arc will understand Sasori's pattern of attack and give a great performance against the Akatsuki member) and Naruto can't even find a weak point in his fighting skills.

Kakashi was portrayed as being powerful enough to take the luxury to fight without any killing intent against MS Sasuke, who on the other part was willing to kill him if he managed. He was perfectly confident that he could fight him with the intent of talking while Sasuke wanted to killing him badly. He said to Sasuke that he didn't want to kill him, as if it was something he could easily do, and when Sasuke rebutted that on the other part he wanted to kill him badly, Kakashi literally didn't give a **** about Sasuke's intentions. Kakashi also likened to his situation with Sasuke to the one of Hiruzen and Orochimaru, where the master also only wanted to talk while the ex discipule wanted to kill him. That becomes clear by manga feats later, when Kakashi fought only to defend himself (he didn't use the Mangekyo against Sasuke, even if by feats his Kamui was much faster than Sasuke's Susanoo arrows, he could have just warped Sasuke away before he could attack him), and even when he could easily take out Sasuke, when Sasuke briefly experienced blindness, he didn't do anything even if he easily could have done.

After witnessing that his words had no effect on Sasuke back at all, Kakashi resolved himself to the fact that he had to kill Sasuke to protect his team and Konoha. Even if he knew that Sasuke was powerful enough to having defeated and killed someone like Danzo, Kakashi was portrayed as completely confident of being able to defeat Sasuke. It could be said that Sasuke wasn't at his fullest, but Kakashi also wasn't at his fullest, having being just weakened from having used Kamui.

Kakashi's temporary power up was literally a deus ex machina to have Kaguya defeated, Naruto and Sasuke would have never been able to seal Kaguya if Kakashi didn't enter the fight.

[Rikudou Tobi]

Damn down to the very detail. Who are you gonna do next?
I liked reading the rikudou Kakashi and mangekyo war arc against Madara.

 

[Godara Uchiha]

You ****ed up a little....


Itachi didn't say kakashi can use the sharingan better than most pyre blood Uchiha in fact he didn't say he can use it better than any Uchiha he said kakashi for someone who is not a Uchiha has mastered the sharigan quite well...


Also the whole kabuto thing is a bit much...kabuto ran from everybody in part 1 and that same part 1 kakashi shitted his pants when oro walk in on him suppressing g the curse mark on sasuke so I think oro had a great gauge of kakashi's strength to say kabuto is on his level, and furthermore kabuto doesn't really on head on battle tactics he likes to stall and trick you and set you up while kakashi does rely on battle tactics, you.just don't see how kabuto was on his level but it's obvious to others...

No way would kakashi Pre war be able to beat sasuke Pre war...3 tomoe cm/oro absorbed sasuke would beat Pre war kakashi even with his 2 kamui uses...Ms sasuke can spam too much on kakashi to the point he can't use kamui to counter...how will kakashi stop more than 5 Susano arrows and amaterasu spam when Pre war kakashi only had 2 kamui uses???he cant, he barely warped 1 Susano arrow from sasuke that was too fast to avoid any other way and sasuke was already blin and physically exhausted and barely could keep his ms activated and with every cell in his body hurting....

Also, we all know damn well part 1 kakashi and Pre war kakashi can't **** with kisame...if Kishi did already think of kisame's most powerful jutsu then it was still clear kisame would win low diff...itachi's words were you won't get away Scott free, that's doesn't mean you are gonna suffer a great wound that just means kakashi is good enough to not be soloed in a few blows...


Also kakashi wasn't the best ninjutsu use while hiruzen was there, it was all hype that kakashi was because during hiruzen time all kakashi showed in battle was raikiri and that dog summon and shadow clone and the jutsu's of shinobi he was battling while in battle with them, hiruzen showed kore in his 1 fight with oro and more powerful jutsu's...

 

[Godara Uchiha]

And no version other than rikudo enhanced dms kakashi is on itachi's level at anything...

How many of these feats should belong to Obito?

Also the whole kabuto thing is a bit much...kabuto ran from everybody in part 1 and that same part 1 kakashi shitted his pants when oro walk in on him suppressing g the curse mark on sasuke so I think oro had a great gauge of kakashi's strength to say kabuto is on his level, and furthermore kabuto doesn't really on head on battle tactics he likes to stall and trick you and set you up while kakashi does rely on battle tactics, you.just don't see how kabuto was on his level but it's obvious to others...

No way would kakashi Pre war be able to beat sasuke Pre war...3 tomoe cm/oro absorbed sasuke would beat Pre war kakashi even with his 2 kamui uses...Ms sasuke can spam too much on kakashi to the point he can't use kamui to counter...how will kakashi stop more than 5 Susano arrows and amaterasu spam when Pre war kakashi only had 2 kamui uses???he cant, he barely warped 1 Susano arrow from sasuke that was too fast to avoid any other way and sasuke was already blin and physically exhausted and barely could keep his ms activated and with every cell in his body hurting....

Kabuto didn't run away from everybody at all, he was perfectly confident about fighting Tsunade, even fighting her without being serious and without having any killing intent, as he himself addressed. And yet even with preparation and advantages he did everything just to run away from Kakashi, who dealt with him without even uncovering the Sharingan. And later Kabuto will run away again when Kakashi taunts and challenges him to a open 1 vs 1 fight.

Kakashi is clearly portrayed to be much more powerful than Sasuke: he was sure that he could have easily killed Sasuke even if he already knew that Sasuke was strong enough to kill Danzo, and when he said that he was going to kill Sasuke you have Naruto feeling that Kakashi could actually kill Sasuke. And by feats, Kakashi can use Kamui only a few times at that point, yes, but his Kamui was much faster than Sasuke's Susanoo arrow and Amaterasu, so even if Sasuke could spam his Mangekyo while Kakashi could not, Kakashi could have killed him very quickly.

It just means that Part 1 Kakashi is not that far from Kisame's level, since someone who knows Kisame very well thinks that Part 1 Kakashi would give him a very tough fight that he would not exit unscated. That's it.

If Kakashi was said to be Konoha's best ninjutsu master, that was exactly because he was better than Hiruzen. That's simple. Otherwise the statement would have been different. Deal with it.

How many of these feats should belong to Obito?

No one. Obito gave Kakashi the power, Kakashi had the skill to use it in the best possible ways. He would have been a wonderful shinobi even if he never received the Sharingan, his father was someone who was stronger than the Sannin and Kakashi even as a kid was incredibly strong, fast and smart compared to his companions, he literally raced through the ninja ranks, was trained by Minato, learned Rasengan and from the Rasengan created Chidori, all by himself; even before the Sharingan, as a kid, he was on par with seasoned jonin level shinobi from other villages. As an adult, he would have surpassed his father who without the Sharingan was still stronger than the Sannin. And canon no Sharingan Hokage Kakashi is still awesome, he is fast, versatile, with incredible smartness and ninjutsu mastery, especially with Raiton and clones, and has enough chakra to spam his techniques. He even created a new technique, Raiton: Shiden that when Kakashi used it at full power, it basically ripped the sky in half and provoked a storm showing and greatly impressed Onoki, who was put in awe by Kakashi's new jutsu. Kakashi basically created a handmade Kirin.

You must be registered for see images

Add that to great speed and taijutsu, incredible intellect, total ninjutsu versatility. As the Hokage without Obito's eyes he hasn't the Sharingan and Mangekyo Sharingan hax anymore, but he is still a very powerful shinobi.

And no version other than rikudo enhanced dms kakashi is on itachi's level at anything...

War Arc MS Kakashi trashes Itachi, Kakashi has completely surpassed Itachi's level during Part 2, mastering the Mangekyo, increasing his chakra, creating new techniques and gaining better feats in everything.

MS Kakashi > MS Itachi when Kakashi mastered his own MS in the War Arc, Kamui can warp away Susanoo or Itachi in the Susanoo, outspeeds or warps away Amaterasu, and can act without Kakashi meeting Itachi's eyes and so being hit with Tsukuyomi. Kakashi has also more chakra and by feats is faster and with better reflexes and taijutsu, suffers less MS usage drawbacks (he can spam Kamui without dropping his performance in the War Arc while Itachi feels exhausted for some seconds after he uses the MS) and far better ninjutsu; Itachi is better only in genjutsu and that won't be a factor, 3T genjutsu wasn't enough even against Part 1 Kakashi, and Kakashi can just avoid to be caught in Tsukuyomi, as he has full knowledge and a lot of ways to take advantage of that.

Healthy Itachi is exactly the same, just that Itachi doesn't drop when he uses MS; but he still is prey of Kamui GG.

If it's no MS vs no MS, I'd say:

3TS War Kakashi > 3TS Shippuden Kakashi >= 3TS Itachi > No Sharingan post War Kakashi > 3TS Part 1 Kakashi > Base War Kakashi >= Base Shippuden Kakashi > Base Part 1 Kakashi = Base Itachi

War Arc 3TS Kakashi vs 3TS Itachi it's a sure win for Kakashi, who is faster, has better reflexes and taijutsu, more chakra, a far more powerful CQC output (Raikiri, Raiden, Rasengan, Raikiri infused weapon) and trickery and mid range options (Raiton Kage Bunshin, Raikiri extended in Raijuu Tsuiga, Doton underground, Suiton + Raiton combo) with also favourable elements and more mastery of said elements (Raiton, Suiton, Doton vs Katon and Suiton, and by databook Kakashi can use all the elements, even if that maybe is referring to Rikudo chakra enpowered Kakashi), and can hold his own against Itachi's genjutsu (since even part 1 Kakashi was deemed for Itachi to immediately use Tsukuyomi to be beat, as 3TS genjutsu wouldn't suffice; and War Kakashi was on par with Obito in a genjutsu battle, Obito could control even perfect Jinchuuriki).

Then DMS Rikudo Kakashi obviously shits on an army of Itachis lol.

Damn.. this looks like you put alot of work into it!

Great job man!


I only wish you would have gone on to mention at the end how Kakashi even held the title of Hokage! Basically being viewed as the strongest ninja in his village at that time.. it's a feat that only 6 other ninjas shared out of the history of Konoha so far.. very impressive indeed if you ask me.

Kakashi is such an epic character! lol

 

[YellowFang]

Thread was about appreciation and acknowledgement of the portrayal by the author of the manga... And some people still found a reason to get butthurt over it.

OT:
Very nicely done, though you only focused on the ability-side of his character, but with a complete analysis over his personality and character-depth.
One can easily discover why he's one of the most likable characters in NV...

And as said before many times,
Kakashi is the most all-round capable shinobi in whole NV.

Edit:
I can't rep you at the moment, +REP anyways

 

[SenseiSama]

How many of these feats should belong to Obito?

My thoughts exactly :lol

 

[JENchuuriki]

I love Kakashi, not only his great feats but also his attitude-being optimistic, great friend and teacher

 

[Kakooli]

Kakashi only became relevant when he got a temporary juice up in the form of dms.

Solo'd by Zabuza, Orochimaru's glare, Itachi, Pain, fatigue from the sharingan. Helpless vs Madara, JJ Obito and Kaguya (until the temporary steroids kicked in).

Kakashi has a similar hype to Itachi. Billed as strong and wise, achieved ranking that far exceeds the level of his peers at the same age, etc. Difference is that Itachi fulfilled that hype and solo'd a bunch of highly skilled ninja, including Kakashi, along with others that Kakashi got solo'd by (Oro, Nagato).
