Back when I first heard of Samurai in the narutoverse, I thought someone who uses jutsu+a sword, they've got to be a dang monster! However this wasn't the case. Anyone feel like Kishi snubbed the Samurai? I wanted for the longest someone who used Iaido, with different jutsu's and such, but when in the Anime I saw them sitting in the back and one said, "Boy, ninja sure fight rough!" I was through with Samurai. Am I the only one who thought at first that samurai would actually be good? I would've loved one of the main characters to be one or atleast someone main a katana.

Thoughts?

I was also disspaointed when I first saw them fighting Sasuke... however.. they were just guards... When Mifune fought Hanzo i was like :eek: ...

So what I wanna see is a fight between a samurai and a strong ninja...

Its like Sasuke fought a bunch of Inos....

And Mifune fought a Kakuzu

Mifune was just epic. But is has been shown that he's the strongest and bravest of the samurai.

I'm saying though, I want to see a Samurai who specializes in Jutsu and Iaido, Mifune just used his sword, and that "Iaido is so fast ninja can't use jutsu" crap is pure garbage, I wanna see a Samurai use fire style and lop somebody's head off.

Samurai don't use ninjutsu though. So for the way you'd like them to be they're absolutely a fail. They certainly aren't the least bit impressive.

What would Mifune do against a rasengan user who doesn't need hand seals?

They're better than the useless villagers who can't do anything.


I really don't care about the Samurai, but they look cool.

It was stated a few Samurai schools had to start teaching jutsu to get students and such, although I will not be trying to find that bit of information. Anyway, Samurai are too cool to be as lame as they are in the Narutoverse, I seriously would love to see Nature release Iaido, but Samurai have way more sword styles, and were masters of more weapons than swords, it just seems to me like Kishi wasted an enormous amount of potential, who wouldn't like Nature release Iaido?

That would make them ninja swordman,
the point of a samurai is to show an implicit skill on their sword.
Iado should not be underestimated, Sasuke was able to react against Mifune because of his sharingan, without his sharingan, he will be dead.
Most jutsu require handseals, and Samurai technique do not. Also, SSS is a powerful technique which can cut through A rank projectile jutsus such as fireballs, lightning, etc

That's because you dont know about them as much,
you do not realize how fast Iado is, and the lenght that SSS can have
Rasengan requires direct contact from a really short range,
A katana is longer for nature, meaning that samurais will reach target sooner.
Samurais have such fast movements, that 2T sharingan will need to be required to react to their movements easier. Hanzo had his weapon in the way, if he decided to continue his handseals, he would be dead,
Samurais obligate the ninja to only be able to use Tai and Ken, and maybe not so strong ninjutsu, but the ninja will need to retreat to do so, and a samurai will not be waiting for them to do so.

The least they could do is nature release on their swords

i honestly wasnt expecting them to be all that great but i did think they'd be a bit better. mifune is pretty goo though, he beat hanzo with ease.
