Substitution jutsu... In part 1 , those ninja who could use this were viewed so highly by other ninja lmao. It's such a weak jutsu, but when Orochimaru, Kakashi, Sasuke used it in the series... It was such a big surprise by their opponents. Now people just die and get revived xD

Creation of All Things is the ultimate "all hype, no delivery" tech, IMO. Hell, we didn't even see what it truly was.

And Itachi's magic weapons would take the second place.

Chibaku Tensei. When Madara brought down a meteoro, you can't deny, we all got amazed and scared!

Minato's long name ass jutsu that we didn't even get to see. I'm still annoyed about that.

Kawarimi has always been a basic technique. Even the 1st Databook ranked it as an E-Rank technique taught to academy students.

A pair of weapons that were said to make their user invincible but were discarded when the real threat stepped in are not worth the hype they get.

its really lame too according to the description on Naruto wiki

That's a pretty vague description, combined with some filler. Though the jutsu's just probably a continuous assault combining kunai slashes with a Rasengan somehow. I don't expect fireworks.

Totsuka has the most hype but it's justified by Itachi negging with it.

Edo tensei has a lot of hype around it too and it's justified to an extent but jutsu has a bunch of weak points that reduce the hype for me, personally.

1. Regardless of whether the caster has complete control over the summon or gives them free will, there are cons either way. Mindless edos powers are reduced since they're not sentient and edos with free will are capable of telling their opponents their weaknesses. Some, like Deidara for example, will not spam their most destructive techniques thanks to having free will.

2. The caster can't control some summons (Hashirama and Madara are good examples). This is problematic for the user for obvious reasons.

3. If the summon knows the seals for edo tensei they can cancel the jutsu.
