Of course it counts. It's a technique that Edo users can use.


If not, then we can't count Minato using FTG on premarked locations, or Anyone using any summons at all since those all involve a lot of "illegal prep". Oh, don't forget about Danzo, the person is basically artificial. Jiraiya can't use sage mode too since he needs Ma and Pa.

I agree since the user who summoned them controls them, so it's their power

People still have not realized that Summons act like a army. Edo Army is to Kabuto as the shinobi alliance is to the Kages.

Edo tensei being your power doesn't = The shinobi themselves being your power. If you want to include them as the person's power, than give the opposition his army of people that he is possibly leading. Because in the end Edo tensei user like Kabuto/Orochimaru is simply leading dead people.. While someone like Madara and Hashirama or a Hokage would be leading Living people.. and funny thing is they will all be under their power.

People of the village are under the Kage's control.

People saying "summoning is a summoning".. we know summoning is a summoning.. however you believe that an another individual with his own powers is somehow the power of another individual with his own powers.

Because with that logic Frog sage MA > Naruto, why? She can summon 4 frogs + Naruto. While Naruto can't summon that many.

You got a good point. However,..

How about we restrict it to 1 v 1 with Jutsu only?
Then, will the Kages be able to command their army?


What if the a Kage ends up in a one v one fight where much of their army if off in another location? This has happen plenty of times in the manga. Hashi vs Madara, Oro vs Sarutobi, Oro vs 4th Kazakage, Sasori vs 3rd Kazakage, Gaara vs 4th Kazakage, Gaara vs Deidara, Danzo vs Sasuke, Ay vs Sasuke. So, so many examples of where a Kage is forced to hold their own weight in a 1 v 1 fight.

It is a common occurence to have a Kage fight and no have the immediate covenience of their entire army with them. However, if Kabuto ends up in this situation, he can just summon all the edos at once. What will the Kages do, blow a whistle and hope the their army can instantly appear? You see the difference?

I feel like people only include Edo Tensei in the list to add more power to their favorite characters.

Namely Oro/Kabuto

because when it comes to Edo Tensei everyone just magically forgets that Tobirama can do it too, or they just write it off as "featless" even though he is the only person to have jutsu tailor made specifically to use in conjuntion with Edo Tensei and the 2nd Tsuchikage Muu immediately knew of Tobirama's jutsu when he was reanimated, obviously showing that he was renowned enough with it.

Let me explain you one thing.

NB people logic.

When Naruto was under Jiraya's guidance trying to learn Rasengan, people called it training.
When Tenten practices her aim with kunai - it's training.
When Minato spams dozens of sealed kunai - it's ok.
But magically, when Oro trains Edo Tensei and in the meantime prepares 1 body so he can summon his Edo from now on anytime he wants - it's called prep time.

If you want to exclude prep time in 1vs1, you should restrict all the jutsu, since characters needed years to learn and master them, not to mention all the equipment they need to execute those jutsu.
