This is how i would rank the Hokage. It's fine to disagree, but please, say why. Otherwise, what's the point?

1.Hashirama (Obviously) shodaimeicon:
God of Shinobi, has Mokuton and Sage Mode. Was the leader of the Senju clan, founder of Konoha and Madara Uchiha's rival, and the only person who (according to the man himself) can beat Madara.
Has Shinsuusenju (Does a counter for it even exist? maybe Madara's meteors?) and Wood dragon, which can absorb someones chakra o_O.

Number 2-4 is so debateable, and these three are all very strong and versatile, but this is my opinion.

2. Minato. Saved the village, was called the child of prophecy. And other nations had a flee on sight order if they were to spot him during the war.
His skills, and choice in jutsu are very similar to the second hokage. The reason as to why i put Minato above Tobirama,is mainly because his more versatile FTG, and Rasengan. I think people don't see how well Rasengan fits into Minato's fighting style...It doesn't require any seals, can be formed with one hand, and is pretty much former instantly (as seen in the Tobi fight).
If we are taking all forms of any of these characters in to consideration, BM Minato is obviously a force to be reckoned with.:cool:

3.Tobirama :nindaime: .
Creator of various jutsu, including FTG,Edo tensei, Kage Bunshin. He is very similar to Minato, with his quick reactions,and similar fighting style. His Senju heritage granting him a lot of endurance and chakra, the strength of his chakra being very strong,cracking a wall as his chakra flows through it.

I feel that him and Minato are basically equal, Tobirama being a bit more clear headed during battle (all tho this can be attributed to Minato being shocked after the Obito reveal.), as seen during the Juubi revival arc.
Minato's Rasengan and improved FTG refines his fighting style. And that's why i put him above Tobirama.

And now for the last two, Sarutobi and Tsunade.

4.Sarutobi. :hokage:
The reason as to why i put him above Tsunade is that he has yet to go all out in battle. From what has been seen, and from the hype he has recived, i rank him above Tsunade in a 1v1 scenario.

He has great mastery over all forms of Shinobi combat. He was said to have been able to use all the jutsu that exists within the Konoha (excluding KKG stuff). I want to rank him equally with Tobirama, but he isn't as strong in his old form.

Both Tsunade and Hiruzen are sometimes both underrated and overrated. I WANT to belive that he was as strong in his prime as the hype suggests...only time can tell..allthough if Kishi doesn't give him any more feats soon we will never know. The reason as to why he i think he can beat Tsunade is because of Enma. Enma is by feat/hype vertually unbreakable.

5. Tsunade

I think that she is strong and underrated (sometimes overrated), but i don't see her beating any of the other Hokage in a 1v1 (possibly Old, non edo Hiruzen. Yeah, she can most likely beat old Hiruzen from pt1, but not any other form of him IMO)

I will say that she is a lot more valuable when being paired up with other people, than fighting alone. Because of her great ability to keep others alive.

Don't underrate her, she is the strongest (physically) ninja this far, One of thouse characters who is VERY hard to kill.
I just think that her overall style is slow(ish) and she hasn't shown any (from what i can remember) Long range technique. Oh and she has Katsuyu..Probably the strongest most versatile summon.
I just don't see her dealing with the speed of Minato and Tobirama, the brute force of Enma...and she obviously stands no chance against Mokuton.

I wish i could include more pictures in this thread... i'm just to big of a NB noob to figure it out :mad:_@:

This is my list, if you don't agree, by all means, post why in the comments. Please, constructive critisism.

She stomp the hiruzen we seen. Even if he tried to RDS her katsuya liquifies him if he grips Tsunade. Short order.

Overall i agree with you analysis of the ninja. I like how you view Tsunade, she is stronger with a team.

Old Hiruzen from pt1 ? Yes. Edo Hiruzen ? i say no. Hiruzen's main problem in old age was his lack of chakra/stamina. How does she deal with Enma :D?

Katsuya can swallow up that monkey. Plus he's useless in his staff form unless hiruzen is holding him. Katsuya can divide herself and handle him + still support Tsunade. No physical attacks work on her she would embarass enma.

The only reason edo hiruzen beats Tsunade is because she has no fuinjutsu. He'd have a worse time infact since he can't even chance this with RDS.

Its hard to say. Imo:

1 - Hashirama.
Obvious reasons when it comes to power, but more than that he was a strong leader who did whatever he had to do to protect his village and just like Naruto he could create an empathy with others.

2 - Minato.
He was very capable of protecting his village and did a very nice job during his short reign and more than that, he was a genius. Also put his life above the village.

3 - Tsunade (95% of the base must disagree but whatever).
Just like Minato she has was of protecting Konoha and even though she's a Medic Ninja she can still compete in battle against many kage level shinobi. She also has decent leadership skills, being quick to act when something happens. Lastly, she carries the WoF in her huge chest with all its strenght.

4 - Tobirama.
He was a great inventor, ok. But what has he achieved with that? The ET ended up falling in the wrong hands and now the shinobi world is in danger. But he has good combat capabilities and just like Hashirama he seemed to do what should be done to protect the village and putting it above his own life (which for me its more important than whatever swag everyone sees in him).

5 - Hiruzen.
He's my second favorite Hokage, but not the best imo. Its true that he had the longest reign and during his command the village had the least trouble, but ultimately he failed to go all out against his student and can be considered a bit sentimental, which hurt his village in the end. Nonetheless, he loved his village deeply and like i said he had the longest reign, which is something. Still a great Kage/Hokage.

I'd switch Tsunade with Hiruzen. Other than that I agree.
