Like always, all hokages renown with the best reputation an has been said as the strongest of all village,

Hashirama = God of Shinobi, the one who create the system
Tobirama = world fastest shinobi,
Hiruzen = Professor of Shinobi
Minato = world fastest shinobi, yellow flash
Tsunade = Slug Princess, Legendary Three, Strongest kinouchi, World no1 doctor
Kakashi = Kakashi the missing sharingan, No more copy ninja kakashi?

He was a stand-in until Naruto was old enough to take the position most likely.

Yeah this. Or maybe they chose him because of his intellect as well. Still think that Shikamaru should have been Hokage instead of Naruto though.

I don't think it was age, look at Gaara.

I think it was more of a maturity and level headed thing.

Kakashi; the epic seat warmer.
After Naruto did all the heavy lifting for the 5th Hokage (Invasion of Pein) and the future 6th Hokage (winning the war and redeeming Kakashi's best friend Obito) Kakashi temps at the Kage desk until Naruto is ready to lead.

Recall how no one respected Gaara at the Five Kage Summit? Especially the Ay, Danzo and Ohnoki. Naruto tried to approach Ay about Sasuke and Ay yelled him down as being nothing more than a child.

Your point?

Age has nothing to do with becoming a Kage.

But it does have to do with Leadership. Naruto would be head of the village and would dictate all the decisions that happen in and out of it. 17 year old Naruto doesn't have the maturity to do that. Gaara is different because he was appointed because the Sand Village literally had no one else who could defend the village after they lost the 4th Kazekage.

But then the whole point of Naruto was him to be hokage, which would completely and utterly ruin the series much worse than it is if Shikimaru got it.

lmao

As leadership goes I definitely agree with you but I suppose you would have to be pretty strong too considering you're "suppose" to be the best ninja of your village.

We typically don't see intellectuals being in the Kage seat for some reason.

Shikamaru is to lazy and weak to be Hokage. He's much better as an advisor to the Hokage, like his father before him. Naruto has the acknowledgment of the entire village and his status as a hero (of Konoha and the world) backing him. This clears him over the hurdle of getting the Daimyo's vote and council of Jonin's vote to support his appointment. Even though all he needs is the go ahead from the previous Kage.


Danzo muscled his way in during a time of heightened crisis and fear. And with Tsnuade being MIA, he could twist the council to support his appointment.

Orochimaru had Hiruzen's favor but when he saw the darkness in his heart, he changed to Minato. Plus someone like Orochimaru would've never been acknowledged by the village. Only Danzo supported Oro becoming Kage over Minato.

Madara was almost Kage, but threw it away because he didn't have the support of the villagers and his own ambitions clouded his judgement.

Lord Kakashi downgraded himself to be suited for that lame job. He was overqualified to be a hokage so he had to compromise his Sharingan.

Kakashi was the First Hokage in the leaf to have someone stronger than Him work for Him in Naruto. Normally the Hokage is the strongest but in the 4 Shinobi war Naruto became the strongest Ninja of all time so when Kakashi became Hokage He was not the strongest in the Village instead it was Naruto.

Jiraiya was stronger than Tsunade when she became Hokage. Well considering Jiraiya refused to take the job she was the second best.
