In the beginning, Piccolo was a complete BA and a main figure in the respective anime. Then over time, he was getting surpassed by everyone. In the end, he was still a BA, but was subject as fodder because of Akira Toriyama.

In the beginning, Kakashi was the same way. He was a complete BA and was tanking villains. Over time, his role got smaller and smaller and became more of a support character to the new generation. He is *starting* to get surpassed by his students/Konoha 11. And he is getting closer to becoming side-kick fodder because of Kishi. I truly hope Kishi doesn't follow in the same footsteps as his idol, Akira Toriyama. *Kakashi fans, calm down, I am not trying to downplay or insult the man, but I am starting to notice the signs. Hopefully he doesn't get placed in Piccolo status. Anyone else see this coming?

He's at a disadvantage with his students being the children of prophecy.

I think it's about time for Kakashi to just give up and die.

The man is fully responsible on almost everything that happen right now(Obito would not have turned evil if he didn't see him kill Rin, so no akatsuki, no war, etc), and you say his role is smaller? Seems legit

Well newer generations will surpass older ones but naruto is 16 and still too young, take away the kyuubi and naruto is no match for him. IMO the only one who has surpassed him is sasuke.

are you high ? the akatsuki BS is already in move before it happen, oh and also madara would have find another guy to execute his plan, you don't actually think madara was waiting for obito to get crushed right ?

Well, overall, it is getting smaller. That is why I stated he is slowly becoming the Piccolo. Not as in now.

I have to agree. But I'd prefer Kishimoto do something really original with Kakashi.

Kakashi is still really useful. And I wouldn't say he's becoming fodder considering that he can spam the shit out of Kamui for some unknown reason now. But, since he can go into the other dimension as Obito can now, can't he have people phase right through him just like Obito?

piccolo is stronger than goku without SSJ, since piccolo is pretty much on SSJ2 power level

Very true. But saying Naruto w/o Kurama is like saying Goku w/o SSJ. While, yes, one was transferred and the other is a born talent, they are techs nonetheless.
