Kimmimaro is handicaped by sickness? Really? Kimmimaro already had a 4.5 in stamina even with sickness. I admit he has some insane will power but we've already seen that with Naruto and Lee. People tend to exagerrate his sickness as if it actually put an hindrance in his fighting ability like Itachi when it didn't.

So get over it people Kimmimaro didn't have has much potential as you think. In fact he could barely become Akatuski level. The strongest person he could beat would probably be Hidan.

I would rank Kimmi somewhere around Hebi Sasukes level and that is probably an overestimation as well.
1. Sickness would reduce his speed, stamina and strength no?
2. Hebi Sasuke would own Kimimaro and Hebi Sasuke is low kage level while Kimimaro is high jounin or mid jounin depending on his sickness and your interpretation of power levels and such.
And if he were healthy I would compare him to Hebi Sasuke, not people that are today (BM, Hashirama, Madara, Obito, Sasuke) etc, and he is not kage level.. It doesnt seem like the kage title is important any longer
But Hebi Sasuke is considered kage level so why would you compare Kimimaro to him if you think Kimimaro is not kage level.

It had to be done when I started seeing people compare him to Hashirama and Madara lol. Kimiarro has no more potential. He already reached his peak when he died. Note here when he is talking to Lee about his powers.

"I already mastered the five dances". Kimmimaro has already reached the peak of his powers and displayed them against Lee/Gaara.

You have not read completely through the illustration you posted. Kimimaro is giving a lesson to Naruto that also applies to your thread. "Don't assume you know all my powers from just looking at them." We have not had enough of a display from Kimimaro to decide that his potential even stops at the five dances. You state that Kimimaro's illness did not handicap his abilities. This is true, yet at the same time Kimimaro was killed by this very illness. Do not get me wrong, I actually agree with your thread to a point. This point being Kimimaro was recently compared to Hashirama and the son of the created of the Naruto realm which is a extremely generous rating. I like that your thread was straight to the point and clear. You did not hide possible counters to your argument behind a wall of text which I notice many do. Great Thread.

This is ridiculous. My largest problem with this thread is all the ad hominem. Please explain to me why we are attacking persons rather than arguments?
Nextly, at his peak I would say he would low kage level. He would have been under current Gaara. His powers would have led to things such as

With a bit of this:

He'd be a fearsome opponent.
However, the limit of his bones thickness, puts him indisputably below every kage.

So at best I see him as high jounin at his peak.

Lately he has been overrated there is even a thread about him soloing the entire Hyuuga clan.

no kimmimarou isnt over rated if anything he is under rated .. kimimarou was powerful his only downfall was his illness and if he had the time to progress through the time skip aswell as others he would be a gr8 force,

i will admit that there are few people that tend to over rate him tho but its the same for every character
