Naruto's Kyuubi Mode could use some work.

I'm judging this post by what we've actually seen. In other words, I'm assuming he doesn't have TBB.

Alright, am I the only person who thinks that sage art is currently superior to kyuubi mode? I mean, Kyuubi Mode has nothing but speed and power judging by what we've seen. Where as sage mode seems to have many jutsu that can be used with it.

Let's think about it. Naruto knows two jutsu outside sage mode. Shadow clones and rasengan variants. And shadow clones aren't useable with Kyuubi Mode. And rasengan makes a TBB, which he apparently hasn't mattered yet. This leaves him with nothing.

Now my point is: Doesn't it seem like Sage Mode is better suited for fighting powerful enemies? It just has the versatality that Kyuubi mode seems to lack. If Naruto encounters an enemy who is faster than Kyuubi mode or can perceive the movements (sharingan) Kyuubi mode seems relatively useless. Although, Kyuubi mode would be amazing for amazing weaker enemies like the Zetsu.

Thoughts? And if you appreciated he thread, the thanked post button is also appreciated.

I made this because I think people overestimate Kyuubi Mode and underestimate Sage Mode.

naruto uses like 25% of the fox's chakra cause it was split in half then naruto didnt take all of it. also his sage mode is a lot power remember when he stopped the giant rhino.

The kyuubi mode is instantly activated when SM need like 5 min standing still to activate, kyuubi mode gives him sense for killing intent etc just like he sensed kisame SM gives him chakra sensing.. i think it's kinda close still one is better for one thing other for other..

The confusing thing is, that raikages power is all over the place, against sasuke he couldnt even get sasuke with an elbow bolt, and now they are saying he easily pwns narutos rikoudo mode with ease? remember sasuke wasnt using his magenkyou when he hit raikage with chidori, so his speed was in normal terms.

i think we should blame the naruto rikoudo mode nerf on kishi, he chose to nerf it and make the raikage god for some reason.

I think it was because he wanted Bee to battle with A a bit.

Raikage didn't dodge sauce's chidori on purpose. he stood there to make a point that A. his lightning cloak thing is better than his little chidori and B. Raikage is ready to r@p3 sauce's arse. also Raikage has absolute control over his speed, unlike naruto. and i'm sure NB highly doubts sauce's speed is comparable to that of either the raikage or naruto in kyuubi form

Naruto kinda screwed himself in my opinion, If he had a basic jutsu grasp on wind chakra and how to utilize it, rikudo mode would probably improve it leaps and bounds, but he skipped that part and went straight into combining it with rasengan. His sage mode comes to him so fast now too, its a matter of like 30 seconds, what I want to know, and they kind of hinted to it during his battle with kyuubi, is if he sent out clones and then hid and went into sage mode, would his clones have sage mode? Now that would be huge.

Remember that he hasnt fought anyone in kyuubi mode and he didnt want to fight A just go around him. In training he showed that he had power and Bee taught him how to control it, he can use the nine tails as nine arms and able to grab things and crush them if they are close or a little far away and he can sense things (chakra) and he still has to complete the TBB. We will find out what else he is capable of when he actually fights but what we are seeing is naruto advancing his powers and having different power levels so he can choose different modes to fight with different opponents.

After kyuubi mode he will find new powers which will make him more powerful and kishi is taking us through naruto developing but what we saw with sage mode is he trained then put that into practice but even with sage mode he still is developing i mean he wanted to go into sage mode while running or instantly which i think he will achieve and stay in sage mode for more than 5 minutes but these things will come later right now we will see him using kyuubi mode and trying to master it.

You just have to be patient only when he is about to die he comes out with some awesome powers which is what we will see i dont think we should get too disappointed with the encounter with A because it wasnt about naruto it was about kishi giving more info about Bee and A.

Naruto may only know a few jutsu with these two modes he has two seriously powerful modes that have unique powers.
The way I see this is almost like having a all new jutsu. I think that Naruto will be able to judge which mode he needs during combat. It gives him more tactical options.

Once he masters the two modes and possibly mix them even, it will be more than enough. Raikage and the 4th Hokage were Elite and being 2nd fastest living person in the Narutoverse isn't bad for a ninja with just a few jutsu at his age.

Naruto's progress is just fine IMHO

He's not overpowered. And Kyuubi mode is fine. But it only has 1/4 th of the original 9 tails power, half was sealed in Naruto and now he can control half of that half(because the Kyuubi does'nt co-operate). So this is'nt the same strength which the kyuubi which fought Pain had.
