I wasn't calling you dumb I was referring to the raikage...but as far as out smarting Hidan, Sasuke wouldn't have needed to...he would have just cut his ass in half...lets put Shikamaru in the place of Sasuke and let him fight Orochimaru, Deidara, Itachi, killer bee, Raikage, Mei, Onoki and Danzo, Shikamaru will get his ass raped by all of them

okay lets start
oro= sick sasuke took advantage
itachi= sick and let sasuke ill him
deidara= ksuicide bomber
killerbee= 4 vs 1 and amaterasu spam= sharingan
raikage, mei, onoki, and gaara last time i checked tobi saved his life
danzo= killed himself and was fighting to preserve his energy for tobi

if it were a simple spar with no kekkai genkais shikamaru shikamaru could give all of them a run for their money

another thing could sasuke beat any of shikamaru's or his opponents without a sharingan



btw look at my username then check my last comment
hen realize the joke:D

just because u even had the nerves to post this YOU are why shikamaru loses this debate

lets see oro far smarter than him
shikaku far smarter than him
kakashi smarter than him
hiruzen far smarter than him
kabuto far smarter than him
tsunade smarter than him
temari on par with him
aoba (guy with shades) either smarter or same level
minato far smarter
madara far smarter
Tobi is far smarter
danzo is smarter
itachi far smarter
sasori is far smarter
kakazu is either smarter or same level

don't let sasukes' aggressive style fool u his intellegnce is up with all the people i named pay attention to the subtleties in all his fights HE IS EITHER AS SMART OR SMARTER his genius surpassed pretty much all at this age except maybe his brother the 3rd and sasori

Shikamaru is smarter than all those characters except Shikaku.

You didn't know what the plan was. Shikamaru would have used a more guerrilla style of fighting like laying several traps. He is not a fool, he's always made allowances in his plans, that's what makes him so brilliant

How does that matter...if Shikamaru didnt know Kakuzus full abilities... How can you account for something that you don't know nothing about...as I was saying when in terms of thinking of a strategy Shikamaru is smarter but when you have to think on your feet in an actual battle situation I'm going with Sasuke...Shikamaru has to take time to think, while Sasuke can actually fight and come up with strategies at the same time

Did you not watch the fight? It was Shikamaru who planned to fight Hidan to use Kakuzu's blood for the ritual, and for the last 20 chapters Shikamaru was learning to plan for the unexpected. Just because he didn't know, doesn't mean he wasn't prepared for the worst.

Since when does Shikamaru need time to think? Did you see the Tayuya fight? Or the Temari fight? The sound Ninja fight? He planned on his feet in all of those, Sasuke would not have lasted.

I think that Shikamaru is way smarter when it comes to battle tactics. There are different kinds of intelligence, people. But, if you guys really want to prove who is smarter, then look at the Naruto handbook and compare their intelligence stats.

In the third Naruto handbook, Sasuke's intelligence is 3.5. Shikamaru's intelligence is a 5. Sooo, Shika wins!! :D

not mad just don't like non-sense

but here u go :ice:
Lol, all I'm saying is when he was fighting the Raikage, he didn't think of a strategy to take him. Something Shikamaru would do. During his fights with the Kages and Bee, he let his emotions and powers fight for him and not strategy.

Ive seen all of Shikamaru's fights and that's my point Temari gave him time to think of that strategy...Tayuya also gave him time to sit their and think of a strategy...Kakashi fought Kakuzu which allowed him time to think of that plan to take on Hidan...if I'm not mistaking Sasuke fought Temari and he devastated her quickly...look at what Sasuke did to naruto at the waterfall to hit him with the chidori...face it Sasuke is a little smarter thinking on his feet

shika hands down. Sasuke may seem super smart at times but he has sharingan so it is much easier for him to see through stuff. Shika maru would rape him in an IQ test. This is like saying shikamaru has better jutsu. We no its not true. Sasuke is just stronger not much thinking involved.

stats given in the databooks

shikamaru 5
sasuke 3.5

that was before pain arc. and knowing that sasuke lost some of his intelligence after that time, we can easily say that shikamaru is at least twice as better
:flaw::flaw::flaw:No he did not. The data book came out when Sasuke had learnt the truth about Itachi. Sasuke is a lot more intelligent now than when he fought Killer Bee without making a plan. Now he is making plans on doing something else that we don't know of.

@OP: Shikamaru is obviously the smarter one and is based on pure strategy while Sasuke is a combination of power, skill and strategy. Also at the people saying Sasuke was dumb in attacking the kage summit. Well you do realize he was bent on revenge. If you say Sasuke is dumb for attacking kage summit, then Shikamaru is dumb for trying to fight Kakuzu and Hidan with just his two team mates. Honestly if Kakashi didn't come, Ino-Shika-Cho wouldn't have lasted more than 30 seconds.

Also Sasuke knew that Tobi was behind him and Tobi was the one giving Sasuke orders so saying Sasuke made bad decisions doesn't make sense because Tobi would have killed Sasuke for disobeying him.
