Rank the 7 Ninja Swordsman of the mist (actually 10)

[Draphsin]

Alright, me and my friend were having a little debate on what the correct order of the 7 Ninja swordsman would be (including Chōjūrō and kisame) in terms of strength. We compiled a couple of lists and i want your opinions on them. If you disagree with either list then post your own and explain why you think it should be that way (i dont want a flame war a wanna see your opinions on the lists, thats it).

My list:

1.Kisame Hoshigaki
2.Mangetsu Hōzuki
3.Zabuza Momochi
4.Chōjūrō
5.Jinpachi Munashi
6.Kushimaru Kuriarare
7.Ameyuri Ringo
8.Jinin Akebino
9.Fuguki Suikazan

My friends list:

1.Mangetsu Hōzuki
2.Kisame Hoshigaki
3.Zabuza Momochi
4.Kushimaru Kuriarare
5.Ameyuri Ringo
6.Jinpachi Munashi
7.Chōjūrō and Jinin Akebino
9.Fuguki Suikazan

As you can see he believes its a tie between 2, i dont think theres any tie so what do you guys think?

I like your list, but there isn't enough info

 

[kakashichidori]

Your list is better than your friends

 

[Reaper]

My favorite non relevant one is the dude with the needle swords
That guy just looks epic and the way he kills in the filler is boss

 

[Insidious Smile]

1.Mangetsu Hōzuki

2.Mangetsu Hōzuki

3.Mangetsu Hōzuki

4.Mangetsu Hōzuki

6.Mangetsu Hōzuki

7.Mangetsu Hōzuki

7. Zabuza

You mean like info on them? i agree however we can base their strength on what we've heard from manga and possibly from what we've seen from filler (if you consider it canon that is)

 

[KGB Kakuzu]

1. Kisame
2. Mangetsu
3. Zabuza
4. Kushimaru
5. Ameyuri
6.Fuguki
7.Chojiro
8. Jinpachi
9. Jenin

Kisame has been shown the most...seems out of their league

Mangetsu could use all the blades plus use Hydrafication.

Kushimaru and Zabuza were Anbu....sadly they made Kushimaru act like an arrogant prick (stupid how he was caught)...though a sadistic and badass killing one.

Ameyuri Ringo was shown to have actual skill...probably given the best filler fight out of the swordsmen

Fugaki was shown as Kisame's teacher

We saw more from Chojiro skill wise thsn the remaining (chopped Mokuton, hammared Sasuke into a wall)

Jinpachi showed rather good Kenjutsu skill.

Jinin was just shown to be a prick like Kushimaru (anime wise) his explosive sword seemed slow to me.

Overall I agree more with your friend's list though you have Kisame on top...he just has Zabuza through Ameyuri similar to mine

 

[-Blade-]

Well if you wanna go on strength alone it would be

Mangetsu(Mastered all 7)
Kisame(Tailless Tailed Beast)
Ringo(If all swordsmen are water users which is most likely true the her lightning owns)
Zabuza(Owned Kakashi*nuff said*)
The rest are just fodder lol

 

[Lucci]

I'd have to agree with your list, pretty accurate to be honest.

I still put Mangetsu above Kisame. I just think being able to use and summon all 7 swords, beats Kisame.
