so you will make up one just because.



and you know what kishi would do because...you're kishi? you're psychic? or you just want an excuse for your fav characters to win?



yes. and if they show more, opinions will change.



good to know. you cant predict the future though.



good to know. you can't predict the future though.

if everyone thought like this, fanboys would be running riot with made up excuses.

No, you can just simply avoid comparing a character who will obviously not lose to a character that isn't shielded by plot

One thing people always use as an example when doing vs threads are character's "one shot" techs

People seem to miss out on the fact that practically any jutsu is a one-shot if you were to get hit by it

katon is a one shot, you'll burn alive if you get hit

raikiri is a one shot, you'll get impaled by it

hell even Tenten's kunai are one-shot

People think that because someone has Kamui, or Chibaku Tensei, amaterasu, etc that it will always hit or play out to that character's favor which isn't the case

I know when debating a vs, people list the jutsu and how they can counter it, and if they can't then they lose

The problem with that is there are factors which one can't really determine or compare, such as experience

I'm not sure of the exact saying, but it's something along the lines of

"A Master with a pebble can defeat an amateur with a sword"

There are characters that kishi will not, by his writing style, let lose to others....such as Hashirama losing to the Sasuke because of Amaterasu

or Minato lose to Deidara because he can't reach him and deidara can spam form above

or Nagato losing to Kabuto because of genjutsu

or Madara losing to Itachi because of Totsuka

or Obito/kakashi one-shoting every character with kamui

or KA having no counter whatsoever

do people honestly believe Kishi would let it play out like that? Think about it through his perspective....strong characters are praised for a reason
Ka does seem to have a counter if the user is realized that this might not be his own decision like in mifunes case

I did make a thread about the possible weakness of KA sometime ago....but it wasn't the fact that mifune realized it, it was that Danzo stopped focusing KA on him once he was found out

Ao was able to see Shishui's chakra being used

So my assumption was that Shishui's left and right eye are somewhat different in ability

the one you have to focus constantly on the enemy for it to work, although it's recharge is much shorter

the other is the one Itachi has where you can only use it once every 10 years and can't think of any counter

IKR? It's like people saying raikage can one shot Tsunade with latriat and all of that, do they really think kishi would let her go down like that not with the title and praise hes given her. Same for other characters

Predicting the future and having the foresight to see the archetype Kishi has been following since the day the manga started are not the same thing. I'm sorry if you can only live your life in the present tense. And yes, whether you like it or not, if Naruto always beats his enemies than he is the strongest right now. With everyones hype it may be hard for you to accept but that isn't my problem. Grow up, and quit trying to make this a "fanboy" argument just because your stubborn.

Itachi solo's them all

Itachi has the most 1 shot Techs in the Narutoverse

Tsukuyomi 1 shots
Amaturasu 1 shots
Izanami (if used correctly in battle like he did with Kabuto) 1 shots
Totsuka 1 shots
