My Personal Naruto Tier list as of Dec 2013

[Europa]

I think Tobirama is a little high though. He's at best mid Kage. More realistically low kage though

 

[-Spoiler-]

pretty solid list

 

[Invsblphntm]

Mhm, nice list. Did you think jinchūriki Gaara was above Nagato? [I'm actually wondering]

Here we go...

- Onoki should be above MS Sasuke. He literally would've murdered him at one point, and his Jinton is at the point where anything bar Itachi's Susano'o and Perfect Susano'o isn't enough to tank it.

- Putting PS Sasuke under EMS Madara without Kurama is a mistake. He has shown the ability to use Perfect Susano'o and stabilize it. And it is completely plausible to say he may coat it within the flames of Amaterasu. Madara's Susano'o is weaker.

- Putting Base Hashirama above Biju Modo Naruto is a mistake. Sennin Modo Naruto was able to destroy base Hashirama's Mokuton Mokuryū. [

] Biju Modo Naruto would be able to at least be on the same tier as him.

- Izuna isn't making High Kage. The only person capable of being in High Kage with merely a Mangekyo Sharingan would be Itachi [or possibly Kakashi].

- If featless Izuna can make High Kage, then Kakashi can certainly make it. Kakashi just Kamui'd the arm of the Gedo Mazo before the Kuchiyose [Jikūkan Ninjutsu] could happen. His skill with Kamui puts him much above many.

- 3 tomoe Madara making Mid Kage would be incorrect in my opinion considering he has shown only Taijutsu feats with his 3 tomoe and it makes no sense to put him above the likes of Kage.

- And going along with my past point above with Base Hashirama being on the same tier as BM Naruto, BSM Naruto should be on the same tier as SM Hashirama. Naruto's chakra reserves at least doubled [already greater than Hashirama's], his chakra strength has gone to immense levels [Kurama's chakra was already noted to be powerful], and logically speaking, if both Base Hashirama and BM Naruto are on the same tier then gaining Sennin Modo should effectively make them still on the same tier.

- Pein Rikudō is above KM Naruto. He can not escape Chibaku Tensei. [and there is no way to prove that he can either, with current feats]

These are all my opinion, don't take it offensively. I could go on, but I'm tired.

 

[Icelerate]

Good list overall I just have 5 issues that if you can address may help me to see why you place someone where they are.

-MS Sasuke you placed in High Kage, when the Current Kages were able to defeat him, and Danzo as well and you placed them lower than him. IMO MS Sasuke is Mid Kage or Mid-High Kage at best

-Gai w/ Gates is a beast, floored Kisame and deserves to be Mid-High Kage along with his rival

-Early Shippuden Sasuke isn't Low Kage level IMO. He can't compete with most of the people in that list that you made. And I'm not hating on Sasuke ether, IMO Mid-Jounin or High-Jounin is good for him

-Base Gai is High Jounin at least. I don't see how he could be any lower than that

-Kimimaro is not High Jounin level. Base Gai can defeat him, IMO Kimimaro is highly overrated but that's just me

MS Sasuke is a fully rested version and full eyesight version of the Sasuke that fought Danzo. The Sasuke at the kage summit arc was weaker, I'll admit but he isn't ranked on this tier list, maybe I'll add him.

Problem with Gai is that he is a one dimensional fighter.

Pretty sure Sasuke wipes the floor with anyone on high jounin/low kage tier list and can hold his own if not beat the people in his tier.

Sage mode Jiraiya higher than sage mode Naruto I don't think so but the rest seems right to me

Jiraiya has a better jutsu arsenal. The only thing Naruto has is perfect sage mode giving him frog katas and sage mode sensing. Naruto's FRS admittedly is very strong but Jiraiya's jutsu arsenal and frog combinations is better than Naruto's. Also Naruto fought against a weakened Pain who had already fought and nuked Konoha. Naruto had full intel and all the boss summons were already summoned for him by Ma. Jiraiya went into an unfamiliar village where he was pitted against strange opponents and had no clue on Pain's powers.

Almost every Akatsuki is Kage level , Konan is mid kage.

But fvck me right?

You must be registered for see images

Konan is mid kage level even though base Jiraiya beat her easily?

Obito with Jin should be higher.

Sasuke with juugo should be lower.

over all, good list.

Sasuke with Juugo fought on par with BSM Naruto against Juubito so by manga portrayal he is up there. Where do you want me to move Obito with jins? I already moved him up on advice from xcoyote but I'm in no mood of moving him up another tier.

I believe Kisame could be a solid High Kage contender. But, the list is rather nicely done.

Well Kisame does have what it takes to hold his own against certain high kage tier shinobi but he did admit inferiority to the likes of Itachi and Jiraiya. Feats wise, I can understand what you are saying but he did lose to Gai, who is a tier lower, which goes to show his lack of versatility is what is holding him from going to high kage level.

I to have heard of his reputation in debating and judging. ._.

Ahh I see but I don't actually go into official debates and barely judge VS match ups between two debaters.

He's obviously smart, and seems to be unbias, plus that Cyborg avatar is hitting it for me right now.

I think Tobirama is a little high though. He's at best mid Kage. More realistically low kage though

I gave Tobirama the benefit of doubt and allowed him the usage of

. So he has more fire power compared to base Minato, equal intelligence, better sensory abilities and better stamina. He lacks summons, space time barrier and hirashin kunai so I guess you have a point but that is why I consider base Minato to be somewhat stronger hence he is up higher. Low kage would be underrating Tobirama. Just look at the low kage tier list, he annihilates those guys.

 

[Penguin]

- 3 tomoe Madara making Mid Kage would be incorrect in my opinion considering he has shown only Taijutsu feats with his 3 tomoe and it makes no sense to put him above the likes of Kage.

On the contraire, this Madara blitz'd SM Naruto, so he has got top tier speed. His taijutsu is far above most kage. He showed the second biggest katon so far. And he is good at genjutsu. Not to mention he can summon the nine tails. ._.

Billy was trolling you bro. .-.

 

[xcoyote]

I think Onoki can take on Tobirama. U_U

- His Taijutsu is nothing Sasuke or Itachi couldn't replicate. 3 tomoe Sasuke defeated 1000's of fodders as well.

- He hasn't shown any Genjutsu feats with his 3 tomoe. I'll assume you are referring to him using Genjutsu on Yondaime Raikage [with the EMS]... and that was nothing above average. Sasuke could replicate that, and Itachi could beat that.

- His Katon size is directly correlated with his acquisition of Hashirama's DNA [and chakra reserves by effect]. It wouldn't be that big in his alive status.

- And he can summon the Kyubi; he cannot control it without a Mangekyo Sharingan. It would murder him, so it wouldn't exactly work to his advantage. I also assume he didn't include the Kyubi as his summon seeing as he made sure to include the Kyubi's name with EMS Madara.

Not exactly sure who Billy is?

 

[Icelerate]

Mhm, nice list. Did you think jinchūriki Gaara was above Nagato? [I'm actually wondering]

Here we go...

No, I think Nagato is above any form of Gaara.

- Onoki should be above MS Sasuke. He literally would've murdered him at one point, and his Jinton is at the point where anything bar Itachi's Susano'o and Perfect Susano'o isn't enough to tank it.

You are confusing a worn down Sasuke at the kage summit with a healthy full eyesight and fully mastered MS Sasuke. Susanoo arrows interrupt Jinton's charge time.

- Putting PS Sasuke under EMS Madara without Kurama is a mistake. He has shown the ability to use Perfect Susano'o and stabilize it. And it is completely plausible to say he may coat it within the flames of Amaterasu. Madara's Susano'o is weaker.

Madara's PS is larger and actually has destructive feats unlike Sasuke's. Not to mention he has superior stamina and Sasuke hasn't use enton/amaterasu on the same scale that Madara and Hashirama casually throw out their techs.

- Putting Base Hashirama above Biju Modo Naruto is a mistake. Sennin Modo Naruto was able to destroy base Hashirama's Mokuton Mokuryū. [

] Biju Modo Naruto would be able to at least be on the same tier as him.

That is just the wood dragon, the wood god is stronger and it isn't like Hashirama can stop Naruto from destroying his wood constructs by attacking him with jukai Koutan.

- Izuna isn't making High Kage. The only person capable of being in High Kage with merely a Mangekyo Sharingan would be Itachi [or possibly Kakashi].

I just put Izuna up there because of hype. He was said to be on par with MS Madara and fought battles with Tobirama.

- If featless Izuna can make High Kage, then Kakashi can certainly make it. Kakashi just Kamui'd the arm of the Gedo Mazo before the Kuchiyose [Jikūkan Ninjutsu] could happen. His skill with Kamui puts him much above many.

Meh I dislike putting one whose one tech which is a last resort be placed so high when his other techs pale in comparison.

- 3 tomoe Madara making Mid Kage would be incorrect in my opinion considering he has shown only Taijutsu feats with his 3 tomoe and it makes no sense to put him above the likes of Kage.

Madara can blitz most kages easily and even without PS, Madara trashed Mu and Onoki. A regular susanoo doesn't protect from jinton so it was basically a 3 tomoe feat. His feat of blitzing SM Naruto who is ranked higher is very noteworthy. His gunbai's defensive and offensive abilities are nothing to scoff at either.

- And going along with my past point above with Base Hashirama being on the same tier as BM Naruto, BSM Naruto should be on the same tier as SM Hashirama. Naruto's chakra reserves at least doubled [already greater than Hashirama's], his chakra strength has gone to immense levels [Kurama's chakra was already noted to be powerful], and logically speaking, if both Base Hashirama and BM Naruto are on the same tier then gaining Sennin Modo should effectively make them still on the same tier.

Actually it is said that Hashirama's chakra reserves are roughly on par with both Naruto's when he had Minato's chakra flowing through him as well. SM Hashirama has shown better feats than BSM Naruto and senjutsu for Hashirama has increased his level of power much more drastically than Naruto's.

- Pein Rikudō is above KM Naruto. He can not escape Chibaku Tensei. [and there is no way to prove that he can either, with current feats]

Fine I'll move Pain up one tier.

These are all my opinion, don't take it offensively. I could go on, but I'm tired.

Okay, if you want scans to back up my opinion, I'll edit them tomorrow.

 

[Draegod]

Hanzo off hype was above kage level.. The man was from a small village yet feared and respected by the entire world! Literally none of the great 5 nations could take him out. His respect was almost unrivaled, what he said was written in time by every ninja! Databook and manga suggest hype wise he was almost unbeatable!

Feat wise he is first move ko for almost all ninjas shown besides the best! Feat wise he was beyond elite! If you come in contact with his poison (breathe or not) it's GG..

But that's just what I got from my info.

 

[Invsblphntm]

You are confusing a worn down Sasuke at the kage summit with a healthy full eyesight and fully mastered MS Sasuke. Susanoo arrows interrupt Jinton's charge time.

Fair enough.

Madara's PS is larger and actually has destructive feats unlike Sasuke's. Not to mention he has superior stamina and Sasuke hasn't use enton/amaterasu on the same scale that Madara and Hashirama casually throw out their techs.

Disagree on this. Madara's Perfect Susano'o is enough to coat Kurama. Sasuke's had to scale down to fit Yang Kurama. [

] Their size is the same. Sasuke can also throw out techs on their level, Sasuke casually threw a Biju-sized Susano'o arrow larger than Gamakichi [who is around the same size as Gamabunta, who is about the same size as Shukaku]. [

You must be registered for see links

] And note those two attacks were portrayed on the same level and one destroyed the Mokuton Mokoryū.

That is just the wood dragon, the wood god is stronger and it isn't like Hashirama can stop Naruto from destroying his wood constructs by attacking him with jukai Koutan.

That was just Sennin Modo Naruto using Rasenshuriken. BM Naruto can use Bijudamas and can jump enough to dodge Jukai Kōtan. [

] And he can use at least 5 in an instant [much more than necessary to destroy Jukai Kōtan]. [

I just put Izuna up there because of hype. He was said to be on par with MS Madara and fought battles with Tobirama.

Izuna isn't on par with MS Madara. The Viz scan states something more on the lines of "they practiced and honed their skills together". And this is supported by young Izuna in disbelief that Hashirama was stronger than Madara. [

Meh I dislike putting one whose one tech which is a last resort be placed so high when his other techs pale in comparison.

I believe you're mistaken here. At this point, Kamui has become a staple of Kakashi's fighting style. All of his last 3[?] serious fights have included Kamui. [Teleporting Sasuke's arrows, fight against Tobi/Obito, recently the Gedo Mazo] I believe it would be a misconception to call it a "last resort".

Madara can blitz most kages easily and even without PS, Madara trashed Mu and Onoki. A regular susanoo doesn't protect from jinton so it was basically a 3 tomoe feat. His feat of blitzing SM Naruto who is ranked higher is very noteworthy. His gunbai's defensive and offensive abilities are nothing to scoff at either.

Madara used his Mangekyo Sharingan against Onoki and Mu. [

You must be registered for see links

] And the Mangekyo Sharingan comes with more jutsu than Susano'o. He possesses two Mangekyo techniques we've yet to seen [likely ever see]. It also comes with higher precognition feats as seen with Sasuke being able to track Obito's flight.

And I would think it would be a misconception to say he can blitz most Kages. Like who exactly?

Actually it is said that Hashirama's chakra reserves are roughly on par with both Naruto's when he had Minato's chakra flowing through him as well. SM Hashirama has shown better feats than BSM Naruto and senjutsu for Hashirama has increased his level of power much more drastically than Naruto's.

Hashirama states that the sheer volume of chakra they shared with the Alliance was comparable to his. Then he adds that, in surprise, that they are also using the Kyubi's chakra. [

You must be registered for see links

] Hashirama has less chakra. And BSM Naruto hasn't shown many feats as of yet. We have seen him work together with Minato to crack a barrier that withstood 4 Bijudamas from the Jubi itself. [

] Note the Jubi is Nature itself, therefore its Bijudamas are of Senjutsu. And note on the same page we haven't seen the Bijudama [the strongest attack of Naruto] with Senjutsu as of yet. You'll be surprised.

Fine I'll move Pain up one tier.

Right.

I'd appreciate it.

Note: I have made several changes to this tier list compared to the one I made a year ago.

Spoiler

For one, Sasuke got the perfect susanoo, Naruto got BSM and the Sasuke + Juugo combo deserved its own spot on the tier list.

I have merged the high jounin and low kage tiers because they were pretty much the same power level. What I did was move Hiashi and Kitsuchi up to low-mid kage level. I ended up dropping base Gai to mid jounin tier.

Sakura got the Yin seal power up so I left EP2 (early part two) Sakura at high chunin tier and put the new one at high jounin/low kage tier. Tsunade got dropped to low-mid kage level, down from mid kage level.

Before Tobirama had any feats, I had estimated him to be on high kage level, just a bit below the likes of Minato and Itachi and now that we look at his feats, my estimations on his power level came true.

Putting Shino and Haku up to mid jounin tier because their Shippuden feats are rather underestimated even though they had very little panel time in Shippuden.

*I am placing current 3 tomoe Sasuke and Hebi Sasuke at the same level. Even though the current 3 tomoe Sasuke lacks cursed seal, it means he has better stamina. Even though Hebi Sasuke had Manda which is superior to Aoda, Aoda wa actually loyal to Sasuke so having Aoda is more useful for Sasuke. Last but not least current 3 tomoe Sasuke has hawk summons while Hebi Sasuke does not. Current 3 tomoe Sasuke also has better speed/reaction feats which could be attributed to EMS but I consider base Sasuke to have any precog granted by his current level of sharingan, which is EMS.

1. You put hype, Juugo+Sasuke combinations, unseen characters on your list, yet exclude ET Oro? Ok.
2. Putting Edo on their own on any top list (other than Madara who broke the contract) is stupid. How can you consider zombies a 'legend' if they can get unsummonned in 1 sec?
3. Pre-EMS Sasuke on the same tier as DSM Kabuto? What?
4. Your so-called 'Prime Hiruzen' is High-Kage and Mid-Kage at the same time.
5. Lol Izuna High-Kage. There's not even any hype about that guy.
6. Tobirama above SM , Sasori, Jiraya, Healthy Orochimaru, Danzou, Kisame, Gaara? Lol u must be high.
7. Orochimaru without ET is High-Kage. He beats 90% of your actual High-Kage tier. Only Itachi has chance to win.
8. Gai with gates - u mean like all gates? If yes, he's way higher.
9. Mei should be moved up at least 1 tier.
10. Chiyo High-Jounin? She's Low/Mid-Kage at least. Imo even Mid-Kage.
11. Kurenai, Inoichi and Shizune Low-Jounin? LOL. They are easily High-Jounin.
12. CE Lee without weights is way above Mid-Chuunin.

Rest is kinda ok.

 

[paratise]

Izuna is featless.

Tobirama is below high kage

3T Madara (wo kyuubi) is low-mid kage

Just my opinions. Overall list seems fine.

 

[AGoodBoy]

Cool, you're one of those that thinks obito is as strong as a guy who made the moon on his deathbed :|

 

[Optimistic]

Only place i care about is PS EMS Sasuke, not sure about Jugo + Sasuke placement but as usual amazing list.

 

[UchihaNagashi]

Blah, it's an okay list but it would be good if you improved it a bit.​

 

[Bad Touch Yakushi]

Guy's placement on the list in criminal.

Guy's placement on the list in criminal.

Too high or too low?

 

[Bad Touch Yakushi]

no wait my bad I double-checked it.

 

[Beetle]

I don't understand why you have all the different modes for each character separate. Also, BM Minato doesn't exist, and DSM Kabuto should be higher.
