First off, i love the pervy sage, but he was almost killed by naruto during their training and when he and tsunade fought oro, it took both of them to fight oro and they still didn't defeat him. and its got me thinking is jiraiya overrated ???

He was almost killed because he wasn't trying to kill him, Tsunade heavy drugged Jiraiya in the trio fight, and he isn't because he proved that he is strong

No his not. He wasnt almost killed by Naruto. J-man was just trying to test Naruto's control with the Kyuubi. And that sannin battle was more for the fans if anything. Kishi wouldn't let one of the sannin die. And J-man barely fought in that, he left it up to Tsuande.

OMG why do you even say he is overrated?

Jiraiya was almost killed by naruto 4-tails because he didn't know it's power and he was trying to help naruto, or else jiraiya would have been just fine.

The Oro, Tsunade and Jman fight, well it was a cool fight where Jman was drugged and unable to use his full potential... and if he really wanted to kill oro, he would have tried to enter Sage Mode.

Jiraiya also fought Itach (Kinda like a stare down) Jiraiya won, for many reasons (some not explained) but i'm not gonna go into detail, since it will start a little flaming.

Jiraiya also fought Pain where he easily got time to enter Sage Mode, and when he entered he seriously got unbelievably strong... and from my point of view if pain didn't have shared link, all those pain bodies would have been trashed in no time. Jiraiya however killed 3 bodies (one of them twice) and he could have done even more if he stayed on guard.

Jiraiya is not overrated he is just living up to our expectations as a Sannin of Konoha.

Jiraiya wanted to see how long Naruto could control the kyuubi chrakra cloak state. He had to let him run rampant and keep letting tails out. It wasn't a fight.
