Hokages

[The Best Hokage]

Ok, so we all know the Hokage's are the best shinobi in the village, have to tend for the general welfare, make tough decisions, etc.
In your personal opinion, who do you think was the best hokage, and why?

My personal favorite like my avatar and signature show is Minato
He was clever enough to take on Tobi, and for sealing Kurama. He has received kudos from many like Jiraiya, Hiruzen, and of course Tobi himself.
I'm not trying to convince you all into my point of view, but I am curious to know you all's different opinions

Thanks again, and I look forward to seeing your responses

I think Hiruzen was the best hokage. Even in retirement he protected the village

 

[ItachiSan03]

Tobirama for creating edo tensei.

 

[OkojoUchiha]

Hashirama. He built most of the village's infrastructure, stopped an era of war, united several clans, created the Will of Fire, ect. its like in RL, how George Washington the best

 

[Weezy]

hashirama because he somehow beat madara

 

[RoguePatriot]

Hashirama.

 

[The Best Hokage]

Hashirama is one tough candidate, but I guess I'm a sucker for FTG haha

 

[two fates]

Tsunade

 

[ANBU Kakashi23]

shodai , founder of the village, originator and sole proprietor of the wood release , the bringer of darkness, the strongest shinobi of his age, and broker-er of the first peace between nations, the man has no equal :scorps:

 

[THE6THOKAGE]

It's between:

Minato : all the things you listed plus , he was feared by his enemies, Respected by Tobi.

Hashirama : Founder of the leaf, beat madara, Respected by Tobi.

Hashirama has 1st place
Hiruzen gets a distant 2nd place
Everyone else is far away

 

[markdabomb22]

Imo Hiruzen is the greatest hokage because the manga says so and as a geezer he held off kurama and took on hashi tobirama and oro at the same time and ended the fight in a draw

 

[HiddenSound]

Danzo. Without him, Konoha would've fallen apart. He's also my third favorite character.
But he was unofficial, so my favorite official would be Hashirama for co-founding the village, fighting Madara, and ARGUABLY being the strongest Hokage.

Hashirama. He built most of the village's infrastructure, stopped an era of war, united several clans, created the Will of Fire, ect. its like in RL, how George Washington the best

^this has me second guessing xd but I'll stick with my answer because when Naruto saves the world, it'll be thanks to Minato (of course Kushina, Jiraiya, etc.) but mainly Minato

 

[-Madara Uchiha-]

Hashirama

 

[Thegreatflash]

My personal favorite is minato, cause
1.) He just flat out cool (personal opnion) / he was feared/respected/hyped
2.) he was the only hokage to really die, that young, never even reached his potential, At least tobirama hiruzen, hashirama, even tsunade all got to live a some-what long life, and this is cool, cause he actually wasn't like assassinated or anything.. he let him self die for the better of the village.
3.) He not only passed down the will of fire to his son, he also gave him the power he would need to continue to defeat the village
4.) f.t.g is just the coolest ability in the naruto-verse (imo)

 

[The Best Hokage]

Tsunade

why? just curious

 

[Lordlloyd7]

Of course the founder!

 

[partha420]

Always Minato

 

[AnimusOra]

I believe Hashirama. Its one thing to be hokage but its a whole other thing to be not only the first hokage but the first kage. Its like the guy said early comparing him ti George Washington. They both showed and made the example of kage for the other villages and hokage to the leaf.
