While Shin father was able to own for a brief instant naruto and sasuke, we see that the clones of this shin are really fodder, even sarada was able to own a few of them with just a 1 tomoe sharingan and a shanaroo.

The reason for this i think is just cause shin father has a lot of sharingans and they all seem to have the mangekyo sharingan awaken, while we know the ms of shin allows him to control things he puts a seal on like weapons, a couple of sharingans wouldnt be enough to make him a boss, so in order to be able to have a superior and stronger control over his weapons he needs more ms sharingans and thats the reason why he´s got so many of them embeded into his body. So in other words shin ms is fodder in comparison to other ms and he needed to implant a lot of them in order to even stand a chance.

They are fodder because shin is fodder... He had a unique ability to graft the sharing an but it never said he awakened it himself or even knew how to use it correctly

im disappointed in the shins. Not only did they have sharingan, they were able to awaken the ms. Dont get me wrong controlling weapons & all that is cool. But it gets boring, i just thought they would take more advantage of the ms by using genjustu or other justus.

I agree that Shin's mangekyou is fodder, but I disagree that putting more mangekyou eyes in his head would make his jutsu any stronger. We've seen that the young Shins have the same mangekyou technique and when the young Shin used it against Naruto it didn't seem to have any different effect from the adult Shin's to me.

The adult Shin's jutsu is the exact same as the kids'. The only reason adult Shin seems slightly less fodder than the kids is not because he has more sharingan eyes in his head, but because he used his jutsu in a more strategic way (such as making the sword stab Naruto when Naruto wasn't expecting it or targeting Sarada to make Sasuke jump in the way to take the hits), where as the kid Shin just tried to directly attack Naruto. That strategizing along with the fact that adult Shin is just plain older and more experienced than the kids is what makes the adult stronger.

I don't think the extra eyes had any effect on the strength of Shin's jutsu. Not to mention the fact that Sarada owning the kid Shins with one punch is in no way a testament to the power of their mangekyou eyes. That is just a testament to Sarada's strength and the kids' endurance. Even though the kids (at least some of them) had the mangekyou activated, they didn't even use the jutsu during that battle. Therefore the eyes didn't even get involved, which further proves that Sarada owning the kids is irrelevant when talking about the power of their eyes.

Also let us not forget that the adult Shin also got owned in one punch as well. Why Sakura didn't kill him while he was down, I have no idea.

Summation: The way a doujutsu user gets owned says absolutely nothing about their eye ability. The Shins are fodder simply because they lack skill (not because it takes more than 2 eyes). Period.

I agree. I think the whole controlling weapons thing was just not a good idea for a mangekyou technique in the first place. Shin is basically a glorified Tenten. This is not to say that telekinesis is bad. That would actually be really good... if the telekinesis is not limited to one thing.

That is where Kishi messed up on Shin's MS in my opinion. He should have made it so that instead of just telekinetically controlling weapons and having to put a seal on them, Shin could just telekinetically manipulate anything in his field of vision (including people). Instead of manipulating Sasuke's sword, Shin should have been able to manipulate Sasuke himself. In other words, Shin should have been like Silver the Hedgehog.

The father itself is fodder his offsprings are fodders, end of the story story-teller.

Shin reminds me of those anime fillers characters, drawn to be unattractive, written to be unattractive, powerless, stupidly caused-justified..

Though his children -Shin´s- look really cool and they´re having a sith master, please refrain, Konoha´s got enough SHin´s to start a war, ow yeah!!!

I am saying that Shin's telekinesis should have been like that of Silver's (not that Shin should be Silver). If you're wondering where this comment is coming from, I am responding to the reputation comment you gave me.

I thought Shin was fodder since Naruto stomped him in Chapter 3. Yes and implanted MS is much weaker than that of the real Uchiha.

I love how Shin was hyped up at first but then it turns out there's like 50 of those fodder beans.

That is horrible logic.

Not only was no single point in time did shin ever mention this nor did his actions ever imply as such.
Having more eyes cost more chakra and if he needed multiple eyes for his OWN technique to work then he probably doesn't have the skill to use a sharingan let alone one.

At no point was he ever hyped(Nobody in the manga even mentions him off hand or his abilities)


What really happened is you assumed some things (A,K,A YOU HYPED HIM) and were sorely disappointed when whatever whack theories you had fell through

So I guess him being sent to fight Sasuke 1V1, having MS, and getting complemented by NARUTO meant he was fodder? Ok.

I guess it made perfect sense how Sarada went from being weaker than a Shin to injuring dozens.
