Samurai Fodder only?

[skoraxascended]

Now since the Kage summit we have been introduced to the Land of Iron and it's warrior's the Samurai.

Onoki has stated that any shinobi would be foolish to challenge their military might.

But so far they have only been used as fodder against Sasuke and Taka.

The only one who is shown to be of actual value is Mifune (not to be unexpected as he is the leader of the samurai)

and as has also been stated no other country uses samurai other than the Land of Iron showing them to be <shinobi, yet it is stated that they can counter hand signs quite easily due to being skilled in Iaidō.

So the main question is do you think the Samurai should remain as fodder or should they show there true potential against the zetsu's and edo's?

or even get another named character so it's not just Mifune and his armoured buddies who die real easily?

Yes they are all fodder. I mean the Ninja are all magicians!! What can they do?

 

[-Jiraiya-]

seems so.

 

[FloriGlori]

Even their leader is fodder compared to Shinobi.

 

[Mayhem]

Who cares they a not ninja

 

[Ryuu..]

They're all fodder. And they will forever be fodder.

 

[Ultimatevirus]

there is not that much space in the manga left to include samurai details and all

 

[skoraxascended]

Yes they are all fodder. I mean the Ninja are all magicians!! What can they do?

yeah it doesn't even look like Iaidō will work on them anymore due to most of the ninja attacks being long range and unavoidable

seems so.

sadly so

Even their leader is fodder compared to Shinobi.

I don't know about that he was strong enough to fight the mighty Hanzou during his prime and as an edo, so I wouldn't call Mifune fodder

Who cares they a not ninja

and yeah that seems like the attitude of the other nations other than Iron xd

the regular samurai are comparable to somebody like kiba in strength
mifune is kage level
so mostly fodder but not all fodder

 

[Rayder]

I hope that they show some new skills against the Zetsu Army and become about Hinata or Kiba strength. Mifune is pretty skilled too nearly beating Hanzou when he was in his prime.

They got the short straw. The very short straw.

They are fodder as far as we've seen. I think it would be nice though if they were not total sh*t.

rinnemaki with his infamous opinions

omfg will you shut up you troll , seriously ,
pain omen and his infamous gay sig

 

[silmarill]

depends who they fighting no?
i mean tobi also looked like fodder last ep..

 

[skoraxascended]

due to their armour and solely using kenjutsu type attacks you would think they would have an advantage against taijutsu users and due to the samurai technique Iaidō should also be at an advantage against close range ninjutsu specialist's

but they seem to die to sneezes (ok powerful op teenager sneezes)
