Edo Tensei is no longer the best jutsu due to most of the greatest shinobis' souls being sealed. I don't know what to say about Madara because his case is still unknown. So the only possible strong shinobi that can be summoned are:
Shisui
Danzo
Sakumo(most likely impossible though since his soul is finally happy)
Jiraiya

So I would say either Chibaku Tensei or Shinra Tensei is the best jutsu now

I also don't know what to say of Itachi, Chiyo, Kimimaro, and Muu etc because they weren't sealed. But I'm guessing their souls can't be brought back

I don't think they're sealed forever. I think they go back to Pure World so someone else could summon them. Just not Kabuto because Izanami mentally screwed him.

I still maintain that Sennen Goroshi would be the most powerful technique in the manga if used by Choji.

Heh, somebody beat me to it.

For anyone who still doesn't get it, partial multi size technique on contact with sennen goroshi.

Shisui: Kabuto didn't find his body.
Danzo: Lost to a progressively blind Sasuke so he would just be fodder.
Sakumo: meh
Jiraiya: Kabuto said that his body was too far down in the water and the pressure is too high to get his body.

Edo Tensei can be used to revive dead bodies from any generation so how is it not the best jutsu?

That plus the fact the they aren't completely sealed yet... the bodies are sealed, but they can be freed, that's why they leave people behind to stop em from being liberated, or like Mizukage's Jokey boy clone freed him from Gaara's pyramid of sealing

Well if you don't know about all these counter arguments then you have many wholes in your logic. Makes your claims and assertions seems invalid and unconvincing. I don't mean to sound rude (i apologize if i do), just mean to share a few thoughts :)

How does that take away the fact that the tech is good? Up to now, we haven't seen any consequences to using it, so unlike most of the Uchiha's techs ( i hate em sooo much caus uchihas are pretty much suicide bombers that find loopholes so they dont fkin die...) it isn't gonna kill you, make you go blind, etc

IMO it kinda is the best technique.

+ the fact that their the body they were summoned into is sealed doesn't mean that you can't bring back their "soul" into another body.

I said possibly. Just because Kabuto has trouble getting to their bodies, doesn't mean it's impossible, just diificult. And I'm saying, most of the powerful shinobi are already sealed.

I'm gonna have to disagree. People are left behind watch the bodies jsut in case something unexpected happens and to make sure someone like Kabuto or Tobi doesn't try to pop up and unseal them
