Now, now, you're exaggerating. 40,000 shinobi had died by the first day of war. Madara only killed a couple of shinobi using kenjutsu alone.

Oh, my bad, that was a wrong number, tho, he mentioned that Sasuke "killed" them. Sasuke didn't kill them, whereas Madara killed whichever fodder he encountered.

Sasuke feat is alot more impressive, he took out thousands of shinobi without killing them with his sword. That's actually harder to do.

You know what, a sword was designed as a weapon to kill.

The winner should be based on that criteria.

So with Sasuke using his sword to incapacitate only, does that mean he only used sword handle to knock everyone out? lol.
And what makes you think he used only his sword? You have no evidence in this battle, he only just put his sword away but that doesn't mean he used it throughout the whole ordeal.

Agreed, but Itachi was a better kenjutsu user than both of them.

Is that why Sasuke got killed by Madara with his own sword? Lol.

Wait, this time you didn't supply enough evidence!

Let's see, Madara takes on an entire division of shinobi from every nation, at one point he intercepts not one...

BUT TWO SWORDS!!

Then he eliminates a large chunk of that division with one sequence.

The best performance I've seen from Sasuke in terms of Kenjutsu was when he took on Killer Bee, he was on equal footing for a while until he got owned completely (even with an active and matured sharingan).

Looking at his performance with a sword now, I think it's based on his new found speed. He probably still has the same skill set as last time but his amplified speed has made it difficult to track now.

LOL at the stabbing through the arm. You know he complimented Sasuke for moving so well, but remember...

HE WAS BLIND!!!

He blocked a well placed attack from sasuke, even though he was blind and he hadn't even absorbed Hashirama's chakra at that point.

Uhmmm MAdara already had senjutsu when that happened. Mifune complimented Sasukes skill as well. Seems like people are overexaggerating Madaras feats because he's Madara but Sasuke took out tons of shinobi. He even took out those cm2 people at Oros base without killing them as well. Sasuke always uses his sword as his main weapon. I don't what other kind of techs you think Sasuke used to deal with those shinobi. It had to be his sword

imo, It goes:

Killer Bee
Itachi
Sasuke/Madara
Tobirama

Leaving powers and kkg out of the equation. Killer Bee is hands down one of the best swordsman in the NV.

How the degree of someone's kenjutsu is how skillfully, it takes more skill to cut and purposefully miss vitals than to just kill. :hint:
Sasuke's sword is his weapon of choice. I am sorry, but it seems that u are being kinda petty at this point. If he put the sword away in the end then as an audience we r to understand that he used it during the fight its that simple. Stop trying to look for ways to escape

Killer Bee

Not that I have any problems with your list, but aside from blocking Kabuto and cutting a horn what other kenjutsu feats does Itachi have

Those aren't thousands lol, they look like a hundred or couple hundred by the most. Yes, numbers do matter. It is indeed impressive. But, Sasuke>Madara in Kenjutsu skills is a stupid thing to say, because Madara really hasn't been using Kenjutsu, he has been rarely shown using a sword, etc.

No petty isn't the word, criteria is key to any comparison. A sword by definition is a weapon used for lethal combat, any non lethal variant wouldn't be a sword but of equal footing to a kendo stick.

The main criteria as shown is the skill that's needed to KILL your enemies with a weapon, using lethal weapons to miss vital points you say? It's actually very easy to miss vital points if you think about it (especially with a sharingan). There are very few vital points in the body like the heart, lungs, vertebra, brain. All of which can be avoided by using blunt force trauma. In fact, it's really difficult to even hit a vital point in the heat of combat, we've seen so many attacks in Naruto that miss, like chidori for instance which is a lethal attack.

You call me petty? You're the one who's petty, you tried to cover up a flaw in his kenjutsu by making it his asset, when really it's his downfall. Kenjutsu was meant for killing, plain and simple, the real skill is how you use it to kill.

Well, he did manage to successfully parry Killer Bee and knew how to fall back before being overwhelmed. I most likely put him at 2nd place because I considered his Sharingan. I'd put him at around Tobirama's level if we disregard KKG or justus.

Madara suppose to be the most expert shinobi in the series in ninja combat but Sasuke seem to be outclassing him now.
I remember early in part 1 ,Sasuke was about to kill Naruto but Sai block his attack .Sasuke complemented him by the way he block his sword because it seem like Sai had some proper training with kenjutsu

On the other hand,blind Madara had sensor skills which allow him to feel incoming attacks.Blind Madara solo Naruto ,shinobi fodder ninja and Hashirama with just taijutsu and speed.\

However ,when Sasuke arrived,Madara got stabbed through his arm and almost to his chest.Madara have not shown any sign of kenjutsu expert like Sai display to counter sword attack

Furthermore.current Madara with one rinnegan in his eye still have not shown any kenjutsu expertise since he was slice into half with Sasuke lighting blade.Madara did block Sasuke attack first,but he did not know how to counter another incoming attack from him.

As somebody who's completely biased towards both Sasuke and Madara I can say that at this point, yes Sasuke is probably more deadly with a sword than Madara, but your poll says that he was always a better ken jutsu user. This is where I have to disagree. If you gave Madara a sword, and Sasuke a sword, and they were to fight only using kenjutsu than Madara probabl couldve taken out Sasuke no problem up until two chapters ago when Sasuke recieved this enormous boost in speed.

It's very low to call somebody petty just because they're presenting a well rounded argument. It's I fact petty to call somebody petty. Not that I'm calling you petty though?
