Is Senju DNA still a big deal even if it's not Hashirama's? Let's say, Tobirama's, obviously not as a big deal as Hashirama's but does he still have large chakra reserves or qualities making his dna worth something?

Also, second question, would a Senju be stronger if they had the sharingan compared to an Uchiha with Senju DNA or are the two equal?

Personally, I believe only Hashi's DNA is relevant as for the Sharingan transplant I think only Hashi could use it to near full potential.

Being born with Senju DNA grants senju amenities, but having Senju DNA Implanted in u that isn't hashi's is a waste of tkme

Hashis dna only. Tobirama is not as strong. No a senju would be significantly weaker since they aren't the original user of the eyes thus they would consume more stamina from not being able to shut it off. Nor would they be able to bring out sharingan true potiential like when Kakashi got negged by Tsuykomi but Sasuke managed to break it.

I forgot they couldn't turn it off, thanks.

Yup the senju would be stronger, nagato even as an untrained child handled the rinnegan(which as sasuke showed drains way more chakra than sharingan) with no strain on his chakra. If a senju is given a sharingan superiority over an uchiha of similar skill is almost guaranteed

Yes, Senju have naturally high chakra reserves and are talented with elements. Tobirama could use Suiton better than any other ninja and was also considered a god of shinobi alongside his brother, he was also Orochimaru's idol which should say a lot. In addition they were on par with the Uchiha long before Hashirama was leader of his clan.

Senju naturally have a very high level of Physical Energy and very high Chakra reserves, so even if the Senju's DNA isn't Hashirama's, it's still going to provide a beneficial boost to the user's chakra and abilities. Hashirama's would be more ideal due to possessing a higher level of Physical Energy and Chakra due to it containing Asura's Chakra and it also contains Mokuton which is a powerful KKG ability being exclusive to Hashirama which makes Hashirama's DNA more sought for.

Edit: As for the next question, I'd imagine an Uchiha w/ Senju DNA is going to be superior to a Senju w/ the Sharingan due to the fact that both would possess the Senju's powerful Physical Energy and High Reserves, but the Uchiha would have an advantage due to naturally being more accustomed to the Sharingan and also being a better user of it due to being the original owner.

Examples of that would be Danzo where his Sharingan usage paled in comparison to an Uchiha's which was emphasized by both Sasuke and Obito.

Sasuke's Rinnegan never really drained his chakra though.

And no only Hashirama's DNA is best any other Senju wouldn't have amped up chakra and life force like he does and even mokuton.

Regarding sharingan it depends who have it if Hashirama had it then he could. I'd imagine Tobirama being like kakashi in terms of if he had it.

It did, he was forced to shut it off during the second part of his fight with naruto while he could still use the EMS. It is clear which drains more chakra between the two.

Yeah hashirama cells would amp an uchiha more but regular senju cells would do the trick as well, regular senju are still descendants of ashura

No it doesn't nagato is proof, any healthy senju/senju descendant can handle the sharingan, naruto, karin, nagato, tsunade, kushina etc. And if the skill of said senju is on par with an uchiha then the senju would come out on top. Madara himself said it, yin-yang coming together makes all things possible.

Eh after the clash he did use up a lot of chakra after he used Amaterasu. But it kinda looks like his 3 tomoe was left on not EMS. Eh I thought you meant vs Madara anyway. Though it is odd Sasuke being rikudou chakra enhanced did that Nagato all out of chakra didn't.

That's true but that's why I pointed out Hashirama in general because of better benefits more chakra more life force and possibly mokuton since he's Ashura descendant he have the most out of all Senju's.

Don't think I said they couldn't handle sharingan. Just said Hashirama would control it better and be stronger than he is with it than without.

This was sort of inspired by the Uchiha > all clans thread. Bare with me because they may be dumb questions and I'm not the most knowledgeable about Naruto...

Question 1. Could be a yes or no answer. The databook stated this about each individual clan

Six Paths: The secret technique forming all creation out of nothingness and giving it life.

↓ Spiritual and physical energy. That is Yin-Yang Release.

"Yin Release", which creates form out of nothingness and "Yang Release", which breathes life into form. The one with the skill to manipulate those two attributes, the Sage of Six Paths Hagoromo Otsutsuki, developed the "Creation of All Things Technique". He also created the nine bodies of the Tailed Beasts out of the Ten-Tails chakra, making them gifts of Yin-Yang Release. After this, the Uchiha Clan inherited Yin Release and the Senju Clan inherited Yang Release.

↑ Naruto, who acquired Hagoromo's power, demonstrates perfect [use?] of the Yin-Yang Release power.

So just like the Uchiha's being naturally gifted with immense spiritual energy, all the senjus have immense physical energy Ashura incarnates being higher.
Taking Tobirama's dna isn't as significant as Hashirama who was gifted with mokuton and a lot of life energy, but if you do give it to an Uchiha they will change in chakra.


Questions 2. No, they will not be better in using the sharingan because they lack the kekkai genkai to use a doujutsu like the sharingan.
The only thing is that when you combine both kekkai genkai together you will get something new.
