I would go as far as to say the rivalry record is 3-1-1 or 4-1-1.
Agreed...
lol. Naruto and Sasuke have been clashing chidori and rasengan for a while now. Naruto would not have won that clash. It's just the nature of their techniques. Chidori pierces. Rasengan blows up.
So it would have been 2-2-0. Naruto has never won.
Exactly this.
First off most recent fight Naruto won he was holding back you can't count academy fights they weren't even ninja
the record should be the summit with Yamato and all Naruto was surprised to see his friend it wasn't even a real fight.
Firstly, from where the f*** did you infer that Naruto was holding back? Just because he said he had no intention of killing Sasuke from nowhere implies that he was holding back (like he could kill Sasuke LOL). Naruto was fighting with whatever he had relative to Sasuke powers, knowing that his maximum power was just the requirement to restrain Sasuke without killing him.
They act like Naruto was a prodigy as a kid
It's not their fault. Naruto calls Sasuke his rival himself, and it's perfectly natural for comparisons to be drawn between rivals. What can they do if he was an idiot as a kid? He shouldn't have called himself Sasuke's rival in his childhood if he was that crappy.
They act like Kid Sasuke, who was trained by Itachi, beating Naruto is a huge accomplishment. Also the fact that Naruto never faced Sasuke seriously, and always had major fights before fighting Sasuke.
Itachi was mostly busy with missions. He had very little time to train Sasuke. Sasuke was a prodigy. Naruto wouldn't have come to the same level even if he was trained by Minato for that long. My next point sheds some light one this.
Naruto was trained by Jiraiya before their final fight in Part 1 while Sasuke was yet to train with Orochimaru. Even then Naruto got defeated. This proves my preceding point as I said.
@bold It's not a fact. It's your stupid assumption. He shouted and yelled so much when he fought Sasuke that I feared he might burst his vocal box (shows his seriousness and willingness, and passion to do something) and said something in the context of "If I had to break every bone in your body and drag you to the Hidden Leaf, I will", if that's not serious, then I don't know what is.
@underlined The Nine Tails negates that disadvantage.
I'm with 3-1-1.
Academy: Sasuke won
Rooftop: No Result
End of the Valley: Sasuke won
Orochimaru's Lair: Sasuke won
Kage Summit: No Result
Final Battle: Draw (fight) and Naruto won (ideals)
Completely agree with this...
Valley of the end naruto was trained by jiraya. And itachi didn't even train sasuke that long. Naruto has been serious in all his fights, he goes all out to save his friend. "If I have to break every bone in your body and drag you back to the village I will" he said something like that
Great counter.
People forgot that naruto was never going for kill, so vote 1 if both side with killing intention at the clash, sasuke should be headless by now. Vote 2, naruto still hold back as usually since he cant kill his "honey"...
Quit with your f***ed up assumptions. Just because Naruto had no intention of killing Sasuke from nowhere implies that he could kill Sasuke if he wished. Or that he was holding back. He was just replying back to Sasuke when he said that he couldn't kill him like that.
Fact is one was trained by a genius, while other was on his own.
He wasn't trained by a genius for that long. Also, Naruto was trained significantly by Jiraiya in Part 1 whereas Sasuke hardly trained with Orochimaru. So they were on equal footing. And both were trained by Kakashi.
