He's up there. But he's still young and inexperienced. A perfect example of this would be his fight against Kabuto, when both him and Itachi were caught in a genjutus, Itachi was the one to quickly come up with a method of escaping. He's a genius, but not on a level of Kakashi etc..
I'd give him a 17

People are also confusing Ninja genius with straight out intellect and battle smarts

Well....in light of Shelke and his superior knowledge on Sasuke... I retract my previous post and I'll agree with this.... As I'm not as knowledgeable on Sasuke as Shelke and other Sasuke fans are so..... I agree with this.

Though if you don't mind Shelke, I'm not trying to boast Madaras intellect...but if Madara is a 20... Why do you believe Sasuke to be that close to him? Also the case of Itachi.... Where would you put him if Sasuke is a 19? Nao I mean no disrespect... If you believe Sasuke that close I cannot tell you you're wrong.... I try to gauge it upon other characters when ranking things. There is no doubt you take your favorite very seriously XD. There is nothing wrong with that. :)

The only reason why I have given Sasuke 19 is because of his quick-thinking and strategic mind - he is quick to absorb information and use it to his advantage right on the spot. His Quick - Silver thinking is just as good as Itachi's. Since he is quick to absorb things, he will be able to gain experience just as quickly.

I do take my Favourite seriously. Lol

I will not dispute your score, but Itachi messed up in his fight with Kabuto as well. It was a two-fold effort. I also do not agree that Kakashi is smarter than Sasuke. His analysis of Obito's Kamui was kinda laughable.

smarter than the idiots on nb that call his assaults on madara 'reckless', that's for sure.

After the last chapter I'd say 4.5/5 or 18 out of 20.

If we put away his reckless nature, how smart is actually Sasuke? His brother was one of the smartest Ninja in NV and he is an Uchiha, plus he had a Master like Kakashi to train him.

On a scale from 0-20

20 being Hashirama/Madara level intelligence

0 being Choji/Kiba level

Where would you put Sasuke?

You are kidding, right? Someone as Hashirama and Madara have to be around 16-17, not 20. It's just like one of them is the smartest person around Narutoverse. Madara even stated himself Sasuke got skills by analysing the opponent's jutsu, so the fact is, Sasuke is smarter than Madara. Madara even got trolled when he thought Kakashi and Obito would try to use Kamui while the other was fighting him, which means Obito was able to counter Madara's plan.

Hashirama and Madara aren't same as Madara is smarter than Hashirama and if you consider Madara as 20 then I would give him 20+ as Madara is smarter than Sasuke IMO.

Of course you can know something even if you have no experience in that something, don't you know about these cool things called books? Information is available everywhere, you don't have to experience something to actually know about it, and this is not only limited to Narutoverse.

For more info:



Read that and you will see there are many ways to know about something besides experiencing that something.

tl;dr: Not an excuse that Bee pwned him.

He has a fish's IQ .

Kidding ... he is smart enough to pick up the good thing ; teaming up with the alliance and continue Itachi's legacy . However , this doesn't fully explains his smartness , but we have other proofs , such as the Deidara's battle or Kabuto's .
