With Sakura's New Ability, Neji would have hard time damaging her.
However, as long as Neji is faster than Sakura, he'll always have an advantage over her
So, I'd say that Neji takes this (as long as Sakura's punches doesn't land).
How she is in the manga means nothing here. She isn't in character. So the amount of fcks I give about her personality or fighting style is absolutely 0.
Yes I'm demanding proof on where it says she's in character. You've yet to give it to me. Not surprised though.
Also, if you wanna talk about libirties.. you do know questioning me would be arguing with me over my liberties.. trying to be voltaire on the internet.. nice nice xD
No... it wouldn't. Since nothing states she has to remain in character its up to me how she acts and performs. That's my liberty.
Why you're trying to deny me that I have no clue.
Yin seal has no feats of opening closed coils, so why assume so? Its not fact. What is fact, however, is Neji being able to close of sealed sources of chakra, which yin seal is.
Let me end your fantasy regarding this debate quick here, with things none of you neji supporters have countered.. but only avoided..(funny that sakura supporters do oactoually counter rofl).
Neji has faster hands, better reflexes, better taijutsu and greater speed. We are talking about Neji, no?
Once she enters his diagram, she will not escape. Kidomaru nor Naruto could escape. What makes you believe that Sakura will escape, knowing her history of getting owned by other slower characters such as Omoi and even getting knocked back by Kabuto because she lacks the awareness and reflexes to get out of the way.
Should I take this seriously or not?
And I guess that making more strides automatically means that you are faster...?
Show me a speed feat that puts Sakura above Neji.
2. You mentioned something about him having the byakugan.. which enables him to counter debris and shockwaves correct? However, you didn't tell us when Byakugan had teleportation installed in it... oh wait it didn't.. So how does neji counter something that covers the distance of football field.. ?
3. You also stated she had to be rescued, which is another false thing. Due to the fact Naruto and Sasuke simply jumped to Sakura themselves.. nothing there showed she was in danger.. rofl. It was a "i got your back" moment.
who showed more complex taijutsu fighting in regards to movement, than neji ever has in the manga. And that was in the starting of shippuden. Now you have Sakura whose strength and speed are maxed out. Yet you believe Neji can best her in CQC? what?
Do you even know who the hyuga are? Did you completely just skip over all the battles and feats that Neji has had throughout the series? Did you just substitute all of Neji's feats for one little battle against Sasori when she herself needed help from Chiyo most of the way? Did you also just say that Sakura has better CQC than Neji? After hearing that, why am I still here?
You make it completely impossible to take you seriously.
Since when did being a disciple of a Hokage make you stronger than someone else? Feats are what matter here and Neji has shown better feats. It's that simple.
Given your status and the things you say when it comes to Sakura, it makes perfect sense why people clown you and your words, but let me remind you on a few things because your fanboying is completely disgusting, almost to the point where it makes me want to vomit.
Sakura's punching power does not mean she has the superior taijutsu skills for a match like this, especially against someone like Neji. "You might have much more strength than me, but what good is it if I can't hit you?" This was a quote from Goku and this applies exactly with Sakura. She has all that strength but she will never hit Neji who has superior surrounded vision and better reflexes. Sakura will more than likely spend most of the fight healing her internal organs, but by the time she is done Neji would have already finished it.
Basically, from your little garbage post:
> You are implying that someone as slow as Sakura can even touch Neji
> You are Implying that Sakura can counterattack Neji while being on receiving end of 64 Palms
> You are implying that once the chakra pathway is closed, she can practically continue to fight and heal
> You are Implying that Sakura can release Byakugo once Neji will close her Chakra Pathway
> You are implying that Neji can't attack her with Vacuum Palm keeping the distance and having a opportunity to finish her with gentle fist
The only thing that is noteworthy of Sakura is that her AoE has gotten larger to the point that she can change the terrain. It only means that now her strength is the same as Tsunade's, but as I said, strength is irrelevant in this fight. It wont change the outcome because her taijutsu is still very linear and slow whereas Neji is still faster and has much better taijutsu. Even in close range, if she uses her strength, it wont do much against Neji's gentle fist which can cut off her chakra flow, including the one stored in her head and also involves redirecting and using the strength of the opponent against them.
As I said before, Neji can keep Sakura at a distance using vacuum air palms or at least knock her off balance for a moment before rushing in and attacking her.
Rotation can still protect him from her punch, and this can be concluded from the Chuunin exams due to the deflecting properties of the jutsu. Neji delivers one hit to her arms and her strength is gone.
> Air palm hits her before she can even hit the ground
He could land a hit on Kisame rather quickly but it takes time for Sakura to focus chakra into her hands and deliver it to the ground, so Neji's attack would land first anyway
What does "ground punching" do again? As far as I'm concerned, punching the ground never killed anyone.
Neji has one of the fastest hands in the manga, so I'm pretty sure that even he could take out the chakra points in her arms before she could finish landing her punch.
Neji doesn't need to get close to seal her chakra network when he can attack safely from a distance. Vacuum Palm to knock her off balance and then a speedblitz to the heart like with Kidomaru.
If she tries to attack from above, which is stupid considering he can see 359 degrees with his eyes, Kaiten would defend him against her punch and that would be a perfect opportunity to deprive her from her Yin Seal.
If Sakura punches the ground then the ground gets damaged, not Neji. The Gentle fist only needs one touch to the heart to kill a person which is why it is known as the most powerful and deadliest taijutsu in Konoha. 64 palms is a technique that allows the person to get around regular taijutsu with their own speed and effectively cut off their chakra flow, leaving them vulnerable for a final and fatal blow.
Sakura is not winning with all these disadvantages. Neji is just an opponent that she cannot defeat. Katsuyu is not a threat offensively. Her speed is not a threat. Her Regenerative feats are not a threat. She is not a threat.
Stop making it seem as if this chick is a threat when she is clearly not.
Ninjas far slower than war arc Sakura were able to touch ( Hinata ), blitz ( Naruto, Kidomaru ) and fodderize Neji ( Naruto, a wooden stick ). His speed is overrated.

His speed is overrated and he was given a 4.5 by Kishi :yeah: . Keep on talking rubbish about the wooden stick when it's completely irrelevant. Neji jumped in to protect Naruto and Hinata. Naruto could have been killed by that same wooden stick. Guess he's fodder? Look bro, Neji has shown far more speed and reaction feats.

Kishi giving him high stats means jackshit when he couldn't back it up with feats. Neji's most impressive speed feat is dodging an arrow from 50 meters with his Byakugan on. Sakura on the other hand has shown to keep up with multiple enemies, dodging attacks from multiple directions, etc. She is also highly trained in evasion and her spammable AoE attacks won't let Neji to close the distance.
And let's not forget about her superior intelligence, stamina, strength and boss summon. The moment she activated the Byakugou seal, Sakura reached a whole new level than some random Hyuuga. Just deal with it..
Neji and other hyugas can one shot in taijutsu by attacking the brain or heart, effectively killing the opponent in one blow.
In fact, this is exactly what Neji did to kidomaru, literally killed him with one ****ing poke.
Damage to the brain and/or heart isn't gonna be healed by byakugo. And considering how air palm is essentially a ranged gentle fist strike, Neji van just blow her brains from afar.
The Byakugou was able to heal the spine and aorta damage ( both are similar to brain and heart damage - fatal and irreversible ). Not to mention it was clearly stated by Tsunade herself it can regenerate every single organ.

THe first scan in the spoiler is really the only proof you need to know Neji's reflexes are way beyond what Sakura can handle. There about 30 spikes there, and only two land on him merely because of the Byakugan's blind spot

Highly trained in evasiness my ass. That's why she got neg diffed by Kabuto's butt, Omoi's kick, and needed saving from a Zetsu by Naruto and needed saving from a wooden spike by Kakashi. the only good evasive feats she has is against the puppets, and even then she had prep time to analyze the attack pattern of the puppets while chiyo controlled her.
Like you said, kishi saying she's good in evasivness means jackshit if there are no legitamte feats.
Sakura's AoE may or may not keep Neji away, but regardless, she will need to approach him at some point.
Sakura having better stamina than Neji? lol what kind if fanfic did you get that from? Neji has way better stamina feats than Sakura
I don't even know why am I arguing with you. I already countered all of those points several times. I guess I should make a thread about why Sakura > Neji .
