Ok a lot of hate has been going around here about Kiba for apparently no other reason but "not enough screentime. The truth is Kiba is one of the more rounded K11 members and is easily top 5 K11.

Since part 1 in his fight with , Kiba has been trolled by Kishi . He lost his match because of a fart . A fart.... Other than that Kiba has been a very powerful assest to the leaf and a valued friend.

During the chunin exams Kiba was one of the only members of the K11 that Sasuke acknowledged . Coming from a supposed genius and an Uchiha that can be a feat.

Also some people complain about how hotheaded and rash he is but he has shown common sense. For example when Gaara murdered the rain ninja he ordered his grouo to stay hidden so they didnt draw attention.

His loss to Naruto can be considered a fluke and very situational.

During the Sasuke retrieval arc he was chosen as a member of the sasuke retrieval squad. His testament as a shinobi is shown by how he took on the strongest member of the sound 4(not 5) and had him on the edge. Even putting a dent in the Rashomen Gate which is another feat by itself.

He was even able to sense Obito's next location and if not for Obito's hax phasing ability, Kiba would have done serious damage.

He is well-versed in his clans techs and is shown to coordinate his attacks with his partner akumaru very good. His taijutsu is on a good enough level to take on one of pains bodies.

Also his tracking abilities are second to none. He is able to track a ninja from far away just by a trace of their chakra which moat sensor ninja wouldn't be able to do.

During the fights against the zetsu he was shown wrecking the enemy while Neji was struggling to fight some.

With akumaru and with a little more training i say Kiba can be a high jonin level shinobi in his prime.

Kiba isn't an underdog. In order to be an underdog, you need actual hidden talent.

Stopped at reading the bold. Obito simply moved three inches to the left.

Edit: Kept reading. Ohh, Kiba fought a Pein. The one that's not even a battle type. What's next in his list of impressiveness, jumping a blind old lady?

Kiba is my most hated character, but only because he's so cocky with nothing to back it up. I just plain don't like his attitude.

If you mean by strength. He didn't acknowledge Kiba. Just made a comment on Kiba being so overconfident.

I agree to a certain extent. He is a valued asset to Konoha. At the same time his greatest weapon, his sense of smell, and his own brash nature is his weakness. This alone makes it easy to put him below Jonin level/top 5.

Kiba wasn't chosen for the Sasuke Retrieval. Shikamaru was told to gather trusted Genin and he went directly to get Choji, trusting his friend. I don't know if Neji was chosen, but Kiba wasn't. Kiba just happened to be taking a walk with Akamaru after Naruto suggested taking Shino, Kiba deciding he might as well come along instead. But the comment on Rashomen Gate and putting Sakon/Ukon in edge is agreeable.

Obito didn't dodge Kiba's senses or form though his hax ability. Hinata spotted Obito, Kiba tells him he can't escape his nose and then goes to "drill" him. Obito avoids it with a skip. And the hax ability comment fits Shino's Insect Globe. It was Obito's haxed ability that escaped it.

I thought that Pain body escaped. Is my memory wrong?

Kiba's tracking abilities, while second to none, have also been easily fooled almost every time he uses them. Naruto, Sakon or Ukon, Karin... It's not only his best ability, it's an ability with a huge weakness that is easy to toy with.

Poor Neji was over-worked. Byakugan takes a considerable amount of chakra, I think. But Kiba wasn't the only one wrecking havoc on Zetsu.

What this guy says tbh.

I would agree with OP that he deserves a little more screentime but I think that goes for K11 as a whole and not just Kiba.
