I disagree. Not only is it off screen but the spiders fell around Neji exactly like how the weapons did.
Neji hits the spiders.

I agree he didn't use Kaiten, but it's off screen and you have to admit that it's not totally clear what happened.
.
Couple things u missed or ignored and fail to understand.
1) The baby spiders have soft bellies and cant be compared to tentens variety of steel weapons.
2)The baby spiders were fewer in number and only came from above neji while tentens attack indicates it came from everywhere simultaneously.
3) Neji was only able to start 64 palms but not finish it due to there bein too many spiders which were fewer in number than wat ur sayin he was successfully able to fend off with 64 palms , and this was before the chunin exams.
Which leaves kaiten , and since he clearly didn't use kaiten its obvious that my claim holds much more logical substance and dude the manga is over and this is out of character , u cant debunk it and the manga does ntn to debunk it so just let it go r continue the debunked argument that he used 64 palms or kaiten and take us off the logical path we're on to reach the conclusion of who logically wins this match.
Bring this up in the Lee vs Neji thread and we can talk about that theory there.
.
KK.
The thing is, Neji's never done it in canon. It's your theory that he would be able to do it without spinning, but we've never seen him do that. It's the beginning phase of rotation. He expels chakra and then rotates.
.
My theory is supported by manga representation , unless u can disprove it by using descriptions written by the writer or manga panels explaining why he has to rotate everytime afterwards , u literally have ntn debunk my point and this fight is out of character , neji already done it in
canon unless ur gonna that the page is non canon.
Its not simply a theory.
The attack he used there was 64 palms though. (And this time it's not just me calling gentle fist 64 palms, he actually uses it and we see each step of it).
That's not a deadly attack. So that wouldn't blitz kill them.
.
I only used it to demonstrate how fast kido activates his golden armor :|
-Take this as my
official statement , 64 palms is irrelevant to my argument for neji in this battle and wont I repeat wont be attempted or thought of by neji in my argument ok?
-He kills them or renders them
unable to use/channel chakra and take note that this is
not 64 palms

Okay this was a Kidomaru who already had internal organ damage and had been fighting in CM2 for a long time. He was in a weakened state and then gets organ damage. Not to mention that he stayed alive for 14 pages after that attack!!
So again, not a blitz kill at all. Especially against someone who's not already severely damaged.
.
Yea , u make it sound like neji was in tip top condition after everything that transpired before in the fight , neji was arguably in much worse condition and yet was still able to blitz cm2 kido before he could activate his golden armor with a thought , or at the very least reduce damage.
We kno for a fact that cm2 kido was still able to move/fight and mold chakra before he was blitzed by a dying and almost chakra empty neji who literally hung in there by a thread (pun intended).
The neji in my argument is in healthy condition , its irrelevant to mention kidos condition while ignoring neji's and failing to consider how fast kido can activate his golden armor.
Not even gonna address that comparison because they're two completely unrelated techniques.
Anways, in the bottom right we see rotation craters all over the ground. What about that makes them offensive? They were likely being used defensively(just because that's how the technique works and all)
.
Fine.
Bold: U literally answered it urself but ill give u notes all the same.
1) Both neji and his clone which he was fight are both dominant cqc fighters,u can just take the animes logical representation on the fight.
2) The way the craters are aligned on the ground gives clear indication that rotation was used to clash rotation , that along with the fact that some were intertwined gives much needed substance to my notion along with the fact that both are obviously cqc fighters that use cqc attacks and defenses apart from air palm it begs the question to wat was ur point in the first place , wat are u arguing against?
3) U never answered why kaiten cant be used as offense in cqc where its used as defense.
Answer why it cant be used in cqc with detailed explanations or u can make it a simple as u want just answer it and don't say because its a
defensive technique like that is enough to debunk it when I already told u how he does this , all above for u to see in earlier posts.
Now, now. On the page before that we see that Neji uses full rotation as it leaves a crater and everything.

Obviously he can stop spinning when he wants or he can keep spinning until he runs out of chakra.
The point is that he still needs to spin.
.
Which was my point:| wouldn't make sense for me to try and prove how fast neji can stop his spin if he never used rotation in the first place now would it?:|
Bold: Now explain to why he needs to spin , especially in my argument , then try to debunk the scan in which its done.
Or at the very least explain it without bein illogical while simultaneously taking into considerations kishis own descriptions not helping u to debunk this in the least and its backed by this manga page.

DB is weak without feats along with it. By manga portrayal, Sakon/Ukon are faster than him in terms of movement speed.
.
Databook gave accurate stats and description on sakon/ukon with sakon bein slightly faster and better in the physical area due to bein the more active brother and sakon was confirmed slower than kiba.
Bold: Based on wat? the fact that ukon was able to unmerge from sakon unnoticed then sliped around the team , attack shikamru by blindsiding him with shuriken , then slip back around the team who focused their attention to shikamru since they had no idea wat had happened?.
Couple things wrong with that feat.
1) The team were caught-unaware after they had successfully caught
all 4 of them.
2) Neji nor kiba never saw fit to use their sensory powers and nejis byakugan was off and he was in a crouched position if im not mistaken.
3) This was never a race , the team were not on guard nor could suspect or fathom the possibility of that happening and such the feat cant be used to argue that ukon would be able to pull the same shit in a direct battle against any of the rookies , when manga sakon who is faster than ukon unable to blitz just kiba alone.
So yea ur point basically falls apart rights there unless u have any other notable speed feats to share?
Until then manga portrays that neji>sakon>ukon in speed and databook reaffirms it , neji-(4.5) , sakon-(3.5) and finally ukon
-(3) ntn to suggest that the db is incorrect so again u have no basis.
I can bring multiple scans to prove neji>>sakon/ukon in speed so u better get ur sakon speed and reaction feats ready.
They don't actually become a liquid puddle. When they break down at the molecular level and stair to pull away from each other it might look like liquid as their body is reforming but they aren't the actual consistency of water or anything like that.
.
Never said they turned into a liquid puddle , u already agreed that they cant merge through so its irrelevant.
It's not irrelevant because you used the scan to say "Look Neji can cover his wounds in chakra and attack at the same time- that's why neji can cover his body in chakra and attack at the same time"
But in that scan Neji wasn't covering his body in chakra and attacking at the same time because he cannot.
Bold:
You say he never needed to, but in the scan you tried to use he definitely needed to. He was dying and had massive holes in his body. The reason that he used the chakra on his wounds immediately after attacking Kidomaru is because he can't attack and use chakra like that at the same time.
Underlined: It wouldn't be wasting his chakra, it would have been saving his life since he was attacking Kidomaru on his death bed. Which again is why he used it immediately after attacking him.
.
Ok , I was wrong about that instance , but why does it matter because it does ntn to refute any of my points either way which is why I said it was irrelevant.
Literally the most irrelevant point in our discussion next to 64 palms.
Glad we agree on that then.
.
Me too
Nah dude. Ukon didn't choose that time to merge, he was already merged.
That's why there's only three of them there. Red is Akamaru, Gray is Sakon, Blue is Kiba.
.
Bold is literally directly after he used sakon as a shield to block akamarus piss as stated by sakon himself , which happened before ukon punched akamaru in the face , which was all
before he merged with kiba:|
U literally countered ntn I said bro , seriously.
Also, there's no reason to believe that fatigue has any effect on being merged with, idk why you said that.
.
No but it obviously has a effect on kiba/akamarus performance , along with the fact that they just slammed into a rashomon gate with enough force to dent it after usin twin wolf ,
twice.
Are u asking why a healthy neji would perform better than that kiba in completely different scenarios? lol I hope not.
Were you or were you not arguing that he hits them with jyuken after they're "stunned by rotation" or something like that?
I've got more to say, but I wanna make sure we're on the same page about this first.
Cool though, it feels like we're making progress again here.
Looking forward to your response brotha.
Bold is correct , which is not the same as just directly attacking them from the start with no planning behind it.
-I feel so too , we just need to get rid of some the irrelevant stuff so we can come to a agreement on who wins more often than not because right now sakon/ukon are dead or unable to use their chakra.
