if 8th gate can take on judara, then im pretty sure 8th gate wasn't even needed against the 7 swordsmen. and if 8th gate was used on them, he should have killed them all. at least 5 of them survived.
Well, Im not telling you that 8th gate will go toe-to-toe with madara. It is just for stalling time until Naruto and Sasuke return back. And till now we have only seen how 4 swordsmen died in the anime (zabuza, raiga, fugaki, and kisame). When Dai faced the previous generation, only two of them survived after the battle (fugaki and raiga). That means remaining five members died (just a theory though).
dai used it so the kids can get away he used it to buy some time, not to do a single move and if that shit is not gona hit to ****ing die and let the kids be murder..... + we don't know how good dai was with the gates, with taijutsu maybe he did not even knew all the secrets/moves etc....
ps : i asked myself the same thing and i used my head and come up with this, didn't need to do a thread.
what are you talking about? Fanboy? im just stating from what we saw. what is PIS? don't understand your abbreviation. do you mean plot no jutsu? Plot is why? Yeah, from what we saw from dai's 8th gate, he didnt defeat the 7 swordsmen, if he did, he only defeated like 1. if thats what we have to look forward to, (unless 8th is based off of multiplying chakra and base power) then i can't see how 8th gate gai can even match up with judara. And if he does, that makes him extremely OP and able to beat tons of people in NV, kakashi including, which idgaf, cuz i like gai. I've been waiting to see 8th gate forever. i always hoped we would see it. im just not seeing how logically it could be effective, but i KNOW it will be effective because it would be anticlimactic if it wasn't.

I can't tell if you are trolling or if you are really this dumb. We are not debating the reason Dai used 8 gates. "dai used it so the kids can get away he used it to buy some time, not to do a single move and if that shit is not gona hit to ****ing die and let the kids be murder....." we obviously dont know how good he was with the 8 gates, but you can't be some fkn retard and be able to use the 8th gate. it requires a ton of training like lee and gai went through. meaning he wasn't weak. People are pulling the genin bs, but that could mean he was just stupid and couldn't pass tests like naruto. You can't be some fodder with 8th gate, so he obviously had to be very powerful especially with the 8th gate. him not being able to defeat 7 swords men with 8th gate and being so powerful apparently means that it shouldn't even match up with judara. 8th gate isn't something that everyone uses for fun you know?
PS: Using your brain really didn't work out too well this time for you.
Naruto is the only genin of his kind,Either you have village rank or bingo book rank. So lets just keep Naruto out of comparison in that way. Also yes we do use rank as a bench mark for power-level its not the only factor but its a huge factor(specially since rank has been mentioned throughout this series hundreds of times)
Now about 8gates.Lee lost to gaara while 6?using gates You think gai would have had to use 6gates to beat gaara back then? We have seen gai and Lee team up and clearly Gai is the better ninja still. Gai using 8 gates isnt the same as Lee or dai. Same thing as Madara using Susanoo compared to itachi and Sasuke(Same technique just used differently)
true and that makes sense which is why i said there are still other options for how it works. i have an open mind about it. and also, rank can't be the deciding factor, dai had to be powerful, its possible hes just stupid.

are you actually using rank as a standard for power level? U do know naruto is still a genin, and so is sasuke. so obviously you can't use rank for this. and yes im sure gai is stronger than his dad, but you have to be immensely strong in the first place to be able to use the 8 gates anyways. Lee didn't just become capable of using the 7th gate or (possibly 8th gate) instantly...
OMG are you actually going to bring up Naruto and Sasuke still being genins as the example for which makes rank useless? Shut up. The ranking system is there to distinguish power amongst ninja. You do realize the only reason Naruto's generation is partially exempt is because the Sand Village/Orochimaru attacked the village, halting the exams, right? Those ninja would've gone on to become chuunin and so forth, granted! Sasuke became a missing nin (which makes rank non-existent) and Naruto is a jinchuuriki (they also can't be held to the same standard). As for the rest of the shinobi in the generation, Neji became a jounin which makes him stronger than the rest of K11 #mangafact
And yes, that's why it took Dai 20 years to learn. So I still don't see your point.
Tl;dr Rank is there for a reason. Stop being butthurt over it
You're comparing two completely different people, my friend.
Yes, we know that the word "Genin" has no meaning anymore, Naruto and Sasuke are clear indications of that.
However, in this current sense, we are referring to Dai, a justly ranked Genin, using the Eight Gates and comparing it to Gai, a justly ranked Jounin.
Here, Might Dai uses the 8th, and final Gate to attempt to buy his son, and son's friends, time. At least enough time for them to run away.

Now, we all know Kakashi and Gai wiped the floor with the same Reincarnated Shinobi, plus some even stronger members.

However, in this fight Gai only used the 6th Gate, Joy, and was holding his own against half of the 7 Swordsmen.
This proves, that Gai was stronger then Dai.
Now, I accept that Dai was fighting alone, and that Gai had his friend, Kakashi to back him up. However, the generation that Gai and Kakashi had to fight was more powerful than the generation that Dai encountered.
All in all, I see you're thinking of the Gates as additives, meaning that they simply add on "Power Points".
Base Gai has a power level of 5, each Gate adds 5 points, therefore 8th Gate Gai has a power level of 45.
Base Dai has a power level of 2, each Gate adds 5 points, therefor 8th Gate Dai has a power level of 43.
However, I believe that the 8 Gates act as a multiplier. Multiplying the base power level!
Base Gai has a power level of 5, each Gate multiplies his current level by 2, therefore 8th Gate Gai has a power level of 1280!
Base Dai has a power level of 2, each Gate multiplies his current level by 2, therefore 8th Gate Dai has a power level of 512!
I believe that is reason why Dai had to resort to using the Gate of Death to fight the 7 Swordsmen.
Hope that cleared things up for some.

If Gai's dad could not defeat the 7 swords men using the 8th gate, how the hell does gai expect to even land a scratch on Judara?
If im not mistaken, kakashi easily beat most of the edo swordsmen.
Seeing Dai go 8th gate against them and only being able to buy time is quite a let down and makes me really less excited to see Gai use 8th gate.
BUT to show how bad ass Gai is, i think the plot is going to be stretched beyond imagination to make gai not die in vain.
Somehow, hes going to do some kind of damage or stalling in the next couple manga chapters. Even though from what we know from Dai, he shouldn't even be able to get 100 close to judara.
if 8th gate can take on judara, then im pretty sure 8th gate wasn't even needed against the 7 swordsmen. and if 8th gate was used on them, he should have killed them all. at least 5 of them survived.
Why do you think at least 5 of them survived?
More or less all of them probably died, seeing how most of them were revived as edo and how some were replaced by new members (probably due to having died).

rank is good and all but still not the deciding factor. i think if lee wanted to, he could own neji. im pretty sure chouji in his butterfly mode could beat neji. possibly shikamaru. no one is butthurt so you dont have to bring out the derogatory sht to make you feel superior. sure it took dai 20 years to learn, but we dont know how long it took gai to learn it. dai for all we know could have learned it by himself. gai is at least 30 so he could have learned it at like age 26+ and since dai has been training forever, 20 years could mean since he was first starting out. if anything, based whether or not lee can go 8th gates would show a bigger interval of learning the technique more than gai and dai. lee is like 16. gai is at least 30 and im sure dai was around his 30s. maybe even 28.

yeah i had an open mind to many options of how it worked, and i do believe it is a multiplier, it just sad that something being hyped to be on judaras level is barely capable of handling 7 swordsmen. i see gai as higher than jounin level. i really think hes at least kage level even though his rank says jounin. same with kakashi. kakashi is way op and > kage level. same goes for sasuke/naruto and orochimaru, and others. i know they are two different people, but someone that is ranked genin and is able to pull off the 8th gates can't possibly be a weakling base power level.
Part 1 Kakashi was enough to take down Zabuza (With the help of some TnJ). This was while protecting the Bridge Builder and the Genins.
Part 2 Kakashi had some trouble taking down Edo Tensei Zabuza.
In my point of view, Kisame was the strongest Swordsman (Based on feats.), in which Gai had to resort to using the 7th Gate of Shock. In this fight, Kisame was alive, not a Edo Tensei. Imagine if Kisame was around when Dai was. The whole 8th Gate thing would've been futile, given Dai's strength.
So, even if the Seven Swordsmen were not Edo Tensei, 6-7th Gate Gai, and Kamui Kakashi would have still been a match.
I believe that if Gai were in Dai's situation, substitute kid Gai for kid Lee, Gai would've won just by using the 7th gate.
I can't tell if you are trolling or if you are really this dumb. We are not debating the reason Dai used 8 gates. "dai used it so the kids can get away he used it to buy some time, not to do a single move and if that shit is not gona hit to ****ing die and let the kids be murder....." we obviously dont know how good he was with the 8 gates, but you can't be some fkn retard and be able to use the 8th gate. it requires a ton of training like lee and gai went through. meaning he wasn't weak.

PS: Using your brain really didn't work out too well this time for you.
i was not reffering only why dai used the 8 gates ****, you can use the gates if you have physical training, i can run for 20 years and do push-ups etc that dose not mean i am A at fight i would only have a strong body and that's all. fact is his dad suck's at taijutsu or atleast is not on rock's lee level.gui is on another level + he is jonin is dad was genin not because he was baka, gui is also baka but he still managed to become a jounin (your thread is usless, think before you make one)
Dai was basically the laughing stock of the village. They way he was depicted it is likely he was not just a fenom but widely considered a weak genin at that. We also don't know how much damage he did to the Swordsman. It is very possible that e gravely injured and killed several of them. We know many of them there were only seen as edo tensai
