Your comparing the summons vs. whatever the respective sage modes grant the user. I have no idea what snake sage mode grants Kabuto. As well there's the confound of the fact that he's incorporated Team Taka's powers as well.Also in the manga.Manda can defeat gamabunta, while the slug loses to gama but achieve a victory over the snake.
Yeah, which means that there's a confound so we won't be comparing the sage modes directly, as one would like to do in an honest to goodness comparison.But he has other power ups besides SM, remember that.![]()
Can we at least wait for another chapter and/or add some level of confidence/certainty in our convictions/statements? We've hardly seen him do anything in snake sage mode... I'm sure it's going to be damn impressive, but it's impossible to be certain of his abilities at this point because they're unknown. I'm glad he has sage mode actually, as this is what he's been lacking thus far, and it really rounds him out as a shinobi.Sm naruto is low kage.
Sm kabuto is mid kage due to what we have seen. By hype might be high kage. Same category as nagato, hashirama, bm naruto
Im not usually the type to overrate a character and put them in a category that i dont believe they are in, but kabuto right now, although i hate to admit it is very special. You could go as far as saying he is a combination of, tsuande (medic ninjutsu), oro (snake affiliated ninjutsu), jiraiya (sm although i believe kabuto's sm will be superior), karin (advanced healing), suigetsu ( able to manipulate his body)Can we at least wait for another chapter and/or add some level of confidence/certainty in our convictions/statements?

Putting him in the same category as Senju Hashirama already? Is this a healthy or crippled Nagato with or without the six paths of Pain. Further, we've hardly seen BM Naruto, which last we saw could only last 5 minutes according to Kurama since they just started working together!
Why must we be so fickle and rush to judgement like this all the time...? Sure, it's exciting, I'm excited. This makes the fight and Kabuto the character so much better; however, the level of uncertainty is massive just because we've been given so little information. I find the neuroeconomic behavior on NB to be so reactionary is amazing, but also confusing...
Perhaps you can clarify and justify this...
Peace

Peace
Fair enough to take that position; however, I would prefer to watch and wait more, as characters on paper always play out differently in action and in individual match ups, as each of those powers/abilities you listed has at least one weakness as do all jutsu's/modes (it's just the way all abilities/jutsus/modes work). Also there's IWR and "that jutsu," assuming he's not referring to this, as this is a mode not a jutsu per se.Im not usually the type to overrate a character and put them in a category that i dont believe they are in, but kabuto right now, although i hate to admit it is very special.

With all these abilities he does rank as high kage and would give hashirama, nagato, bm naruto a run for their money.
Naruto never defeated the rinnegan.Naruto was beaten numerous times by Nagato.Naruto is only alive today for two reason, Nagato was trying to capture Naruto and not kill him, and the nine tails going on a rampage after Naruto witness Hinata being hurt.Try paying attention to the manga.Naruto SM > Kabuto SM
Why? Kabuto hesitated (and was fearful) in taking on the rinnengan which forced him to spill the beans to tobi on how edo tensei worked. Naruto fought and defeated the rinnegan (6 paths of pein) and is currently wiping the floor with tobi.
Now put that in your pipe and smoke it!![]()
