Genius characters in Naruto

[Haizaki]

Lol at Neji and Shikamaru being above Itachi, Sasuke and Orochimaru.

Laughable list at best.

​

​

Neji's case isn't laughable...he's a genius and was most likely more talented than Sasuke in part 1...someone that trained himself to be that strong while Sasuke was good, but still had help from Kakashi in regards to developing his sharingan

Lol calm down, just because it's in numerical order doesn't mean anything

Shika and his father :3 Just in my opinion~

Why is Orochimaru so low?
The man created his own dimension.

 

[Uchicha Macho]

Sasuke should be number one because he indra reincarnation plus the level of strategy he shown so far

When Sasuke creates a new dimension, then maybe he might be smarter than Orochimaru.

 

[SkyGodHorus]

Why is Orochimaru so low?
The man created his own dimension.

Because they aren't ordered according to their intellect but according to the ones I thought of first.

 

[EMAJOENATiON]

Minato, Itachi, Hiruzen, Orochimaru

 

[Xāvî1]

Let me just say that Kishi himself is just a man, I'm pretty sure he isn't any kind of genius himself (no offense, I like his writing and art but he's a normal dude, isn't he?). So of course he can't write a hyper-intelligent character, the best he can do is show them to figure stuff out quickly and invent something that is considered complicated in-universe.

Remember how Shikamaru figuring out Hidan's jutsu was presented as impressive? While to us readers it didn't really seem so? Also Shika was said to have IQ over 200 (which makes no sense really). I can't actually say that I was ever impressed by any of Naruto characters' intelligence so I can only rely on in-universe hype which Kishi writes for them.
