I misread your original comment, forgive me for that. I thought that you were backing up your claim with hype, which is what I'm trying to stop people doing. As long as you can admit that we can't say for sure who is actually stronger, and that up till now it's all opinion, then your good in my books.however you said "read my comments, maybe you'll see the light" implying that you think my opinion is definitely wrong. i have read your post, and i still believe hiruzen is stronger. Just wondering, have you proved anyone wrong yet??...anywho
hashi has less feats than hiruzen....they have around the same hype. but i've seen hiruzen in action, and it was impressive. i haven't seen hashi in action. only hashi's techniques. which may have possibly been enhanced due to the large chakra boost madara got.
but anywho, i still think Hiruzen is the strongest, until we get more background info on Hashi. i refuse to take Madara's word over an entire village + more just because...
I have told you this already...the fight with Orochimaru is the most pathetic excuse used by Hiruzen supporters of all. To begin with, the power levels are WAYYYY off. So much. Also, Orochimaru, who clearly did not know the full extent of Hashi's power, was in COMPLETE control of Hashi. And finally, they BEAT Hiruzen. They BEAT HIM. Once Hiruzen was in Bringer of Darkness, they could have killed him easily. At that point Oro had won, and could have and should have ended it. So no, Hiruzen did not win. On the contrary, he was toyed with, and the fact that Oro made the mistake of not killing him then had nothing to do with Hiruzen's prowess as a ninja.Feats huh
Well Hashirama had was capable of all those feats all this time, and yet he lost to someone who was considered stronger than him already
Sorry but it doesnt become any clearer than that
And finally, yes, feats. Based off of what I have seen from Hiruzen, and what we have seen of Hashirama's power, I believe that Hashirama is more powerful. BUT, if we were to see the full power of each of them, and it turns out that Hiruzen would win, then I would change my mind. What I'm trying to get across is that Hiruzen is not 100% stronger than Hashirama. It can't be proven until we see exactly how powerful each of them are. The same goes for Hashirama. We also can't prove that he is 100% stronger than Hiruzen.
