How Is Sasuke On Par With Naruto?

[Booker]

People can say this all they want, but I need proof as to why. Please, ise this thread to explain what Sasuke could possibly do in this fight that makes it even?

 

[Typhon Uchiha]

Nothing there not even atm.

 

[lol99]

sasuke is his rival so..

with asspull bonus

 

[Meee]

he isn't yet he hasn't even shown anything new besides a Enton Sword hes pretty much the same as MS Sasuke, Naruto could defeat him in that first Kyuubi mode he fought Obito with

 

[Itachi of Akatsuki]

Kishi said that they progress as a pair and each time they both get power ups they are put on par

Naruto - Bijuu Mode
Sasuke - EMS

We still have to see EMS's capabilities but I'm taking the authors word for it and ending it with Naruto = Sasuke (at the moment)

ugh i get annoyed when i heard this..
NARUTO IS STUPID WHEN IT COMES TO FIGHTING!!! I Mean intelligence, He is pure raw power and recklessness..
SASUKE IS BRILLIANT>> He creates different scenarios, hypotesis that most of the time turn out to be correct.. He did not knew anything about Deidara or Danzo before he fought against them.. This skill is something naruto still lacks..
Sasuke has the ability to keep his cool analyze his opponent..
Naruto is currently stronger than Sasuke..but in a fight not only strength counts..U__U

Were just going to have to wait and see if his EMS measures up or he gets another power upgrade. I mean, Naruto is the hero so he is going to win in the end, but Sasuke is the rival so it would be anti climatic if Naruto beats him easily. When they fight they will be equal, (otherwise the fight would be boring.)

 

[iFlowMotion]

Theres no proof to say he is either. Your saying this all base on opinion. They haven't fought to know if sasuke is par with him or not. Kishi did not state Naruto was greater that sasuke if he did please show me where he says this until then its all opinion base. If you like naruto then hes better if you like sasuke hes better if youre neutral you say we havent seen sasuke do anything with EMS. So stop with these threads its like a billion already

 

[Nakamazi Itchigo]

Impossible to say, if you ask me because we haven't yet still seen the full extent of Sasuke's new powers

 

[Arugon]

Right now from what we have seen Sasuke do so far, SM Naruto could beat him. People simply speculate that since he now has EMS, he is on par with BM Naruto. This opinion that many people have is simply based on the fact that he is Naruto's rival. That thought process is completely absurd. Until Sasuke reveals what he is capable of with his EMS, he will remain SM Naruto Level, and nothing more because without feats, a character's speculated power is nothing but hype.

Sasuke will get an asspull powerup...

I agree with you to an extent but you do underestimate Naruto. Even though his personality says otherwise he can come through in a pinch from time to time. For example Naruto-third raikage was won solely by Narutos analytic skill. Then there is also the matter that if your opponent is way to strong you have fewer cards to play against them and when push comes to shove it doesn't matter how much you analyze, you won't come on top anyways. This has been the case since shipuudens ridiculous power ups at least. My point is that Sasuke is above or at least around the same powerlevels as both Danzo and Deidara which is why his analytical skills came into play, if they had been much stronger than him he would still have lost.

OT: It all depends on how you look at things, based on what we've seen from Sasuke Naruto would wipe floors with him imo. But we haven't really seen all his cards yet so it's really hard to tell.

Naruto stupid in battle? Dude, in battle he is a genius! A true genius!

He is goofy when he is not battling. And goofy is fun!

 

[Honord Sage]

In the end Sasuke will realize that He is not in Naruto's league,How can He be Naruto with SO6P Power is just too much for Sasuke to mach.

 

[Sir Ichiraku]

naruto was never dumb in battle. the fights against zabuza, kakashi and 3rd raikage all prove that.

 

[Sea Of Thy Soul]

Remember when 3 Tomoe Sharingan Sasuke gave Kyuubi Naruto a knuckle sandwich during their battle in the VOTE?
That should explain it all.

 

[Excālibur1]

Sasuke's eyes are powerful.
It is mentioned in manga number ( i don't remember) that Sasuke was powerful than Naruto.

 

[Retsu]

nothing atm, naruto's got most fronts covered with offense, defense, speed, reserves, and not to mention he also has that brilliant fox on his side, whom kakashi compared to a captain in terms of planning and thinking, so for the ppl who say naruto is dumb, I say to you, the fox is not.
