Misconception on Sensory

[Megatolium]

I hate to see how many people don't know what sensory is, let me explain, there are briefly 2 types of sensors, Chakra-based sensors, and Presence-based sensors:

• Chakra-based sensors are sensors who can see chakra and its properties, Byakugan is such good example, making them the best at seeing chakra.

• Presence-based sensors are sensors who can pick up the enemies location, or sense there state and being. Such people are Kiba, Shino, Karin and Naruto (BM's Negativity Sensory), presence based sensors can sense things what Chakra-based sensors cannot pickup, like scent and emotion. But they cannot see chakra (Karin being the exception here..)

Those are the 2 main sensors in the shinobi world, you get basic sensory as well, such as sensors analyzing an opponent ninjutsu, analyzing his fighting style and such.

Kiba is a unique sensor, he rely on the sense of smell, he is also shown tracking down Sasuke with his nose alone, which is miles and miles away, and to mention which Paku couldn't even do...this is something Byakugan and other sensors cannot do.

He is also shown to signature a smell to his comrades, knowing if its them by smell. Making him a Presence-based Sensor.

Karin in my opinion, is a mixture of this two main sensory, I'd say she's the best sensor there is. She is unique.

Naruto also, his the only Shinobi (what I know of) that can sense negativity inside his opponent, making it effortless to spot transformation jutsu on the highest level, as seen with Zetsu, which Byakugan didn't pick up btw.


So people please, don't create threads about "Who's the Best Sensor" without keeping in mind there are many types of sensors, falling in there own respective category.

Unless of course you're name is Nagato Uzumaki who can then see everything from

. Nagato seems like a combination of chakra-based sensors and presence-based sensors, partially due to the Rinnegan.

Mito, the first Hokage's wife was the first person to be able to sense negativity. She was way better than naruto was at it. Mito was the first person to have the Kyuubi sealed inside of her. And not half of the Kyuubi like Naruto.

I prefer to separate them into two distinct categories: sensors and trackers.
Sensors are the ones able to detect someone though chakra sensitive abilities and trackers are people able to determinate someone's position through clever perception of their surroundings and/or enhanced five senses.
Examples of trackers are Kiba, who detects through smell, and Minato, who detects through hearing. Basically, if you are not using a chakra senstive skill to detect someone, you are a tracker. The Hyuugas are a complicated case, but I decided to put them into the tracker category since they are just seeing chakra and not actually sensing it though a sixth sense-like jutsu.
Naruto and Mito are unique cases, their abilities are similar to sensory skills, but they are emotion sensitive instead.
