Shikaku
Shikamaru (the only different is that shikaku has more exp but shikamaru more potencial
Itachi
Orochimaru
Hatake Kakashi
Manikaze Minato.

Minato get to much credits for an obvious solution vs Tobi, specially for the future Gamble Master Plan..

is not tobi the retarded that thought that with a pair of chains he was going to defeat minato, when he saw how minato abilities works, tobi became retarded when he fought minato.. so minato would be able to find out tobis obvius abilities.. like Torune an Fu..

Tobi is retarded..

first thing,tobi hasnt shown any particular strength in taijutsu, so if he can just use chains during close combats,then so be it. that doesnt mean he was retarded...second, torune & Fu could just find about tobi's tangaebility, but couldnt find how to deal with it. So dont say minato & Fu-torune are equal in analysis.
Once you see tobi fight, you know that in order to hit him,you've to hit just when he solidifies....minato & Fu-torune were able to understand this. However,the more imp thing was that minato was also able to formulate a plan to hit tobi & he succeeded.

[*]One of the greatest feats that Itachi has achieved is breaking out of the Edo Tensei. Although many might argue that it was a completely lucky event and had nothing to do with intelligence. I beg to differ. If that was anyone else they would not have known what to do with KA. KA isn't, and was never supposed to be used for the Edo Tensei. The fact that Itachi, so quickly realized that he could break out of it with KA is tremendous and is also a monument to his intelligence.

Just look at Kabuto's poor face, and his reaction. "Uchiha Itachi... he's clearly on another level to the others!" I wonder if Kabuto had Shikamaru in his mind when he was saying this :noc:

wrong wrong wrong.obviously an itachi fanboy.

of course he knows the effect of KA because shisui entrusted it to him and he knows that powerful genjutsu can manipulate anyone regardless. it was supposed to be used against sasuke in the event that sasuke uses his MS against naruto. IT WAS PURE LUCK BECAUSE KABUTO SENDS THEM TO CAPTURE BEE AND NARUTO,if kabuto didn't do it there is no way itachi can break edo tensei.that is in no way associated with itachi's intelligence.

kabuto was surprised because he had no clue to what happened, he just then realized it was shisui's eye who did the trick. remember he deliberately let nagato burn for awhile in order to listen to itachi and naruto's conversation.

I Say Minato because he was able to figure out Tobi's space time Jutus just by seeing it one time and I never saw anybody else do it yet

Doesn't matter what damn age they do things. Shikamaru is lazy but hyped up to be a super genius which Itachi hasn't been. Ask Kishi and I can guarantee he will say Shikamaru is smarter.

Baka, you can't guarantee anything. You're nothing but a measly child.

Hmmm I wouldn't say he's smarter because remember that Shikamaru is a lazy ass bastard back then. Itachi I would say same level of intel as skikamaru?

Minato = Itachi = Shika = Shika's father.

The difference is their knowledge due to differences of age and experiences.

Itachi:
-Genius
-Learns ninjutsu really fast
-Activated sharingan early
-Graduated quickly
-Became anbu captain at a young age
-Hid Shisui's eye
-Devises a plan to annihilate his entire clan in one night
-Kept quiet about all of this and put on a face for everyone
-Enlisted the help of Tobi (Mandara at the time)
-Manages to get into Akatsuki and spy on them (two bird with one stone)
-Manipulates the elders and Danzo to protect his brother
-Decieved all of Akatsuki till the very end with only Tobi knowing the truth
-Able to fight Konoha ninja while never actually harming them but still looking like the bad guy
-Devised a plan for his brother to kill him in the end and recieve glory
-Devised another plan when his brother went bad, planning the use of his eyes would activate Shisui's eye.
-Figures out enemies techniques easily and knows exactly how to counter attack
-Knew exactly what he should do in the war (stop endos), being able to see the bigger picture.

Shikamaru:
-Has been said to be smart
-Devised good plans inbattle, rather simple but effective.
-Stresses out in heated situations (has to do his hand thingy)
-Battle with Temari was a disappointment
-Can play japanese chess
-Multiple quotes about how smart he is but has never been proven
-Failed retrieving Saskue
-Failed with Hidan the first time
-Due to laziness, probably doesn't know many jutsus or about enemy jutsus

Summary:
Overall, If you take out all the quotes about how smart Shikamaru is, he pretty much sucks. He hasn't really proven how smart he is. When he does it really exaggerated because all other ninjas can do that without even thinking about it. Oh wow I can count the number of ninjas hiding, or following me. Oh wow I can force the opponent to stand there and trap them. Oh wow I tricked them coz they didn't see the little shadow. All these little tricks have been done a countless number of time by many ninja but isn't exaggereted as much. We don't get to see them think about it like Shikamaru but you know most ninjas do this instinctively (except Naruto coz hes a bit thick). Soz Shika fans but you havn't got any proof of how smart he is compared to normal ninjas let alone be compared with Itachi. Keep it in the stat books but thats the only place his intelligence is.

Has to do his "hand thingy"? I suppose you mean this... < :D

It's called thinking, it's called patience... :sigh: When will people learn that this surpasses so-called "intelligence"?

Also, it's not "Japanese Chess", it's called Shogi, and is actually more complicated than Chess.

:pwn: :flaw: _O-

Yes it is japanese chess. Chess has been made in many different countries. What you call chess is the internation chess game which is accepted nowadays. Shoji is japanese chess.

I'm saying having to stop and think about it slowly isn't always possible when your a ninja in a battle. Itachi has been proven to do exactly the same thing while also fighting the enemy at the same time. No prep time or delay or stalling, many other ninjas think up a plan as simple as his in the middle of an intense battle. Even Naruto has come up with a few good ones.

Shikamaru vs Kin
-Hides his shadow under the string and knocks her head on the wall
-She really must have been weak
-Spent the ages thinking while she was slowly tourturing him

Shikamaru vs Temari
-Hides and forces her to move into the correct position so he can trap her
-Still lose as he can't do anything else afterwards
-Massive stalling battle

Shikamaru vs Sound ninjas
-Was able to know that there was another ninja hiding somewhere
-Was rescued by Asuma

Shikamaru vs Tayuya
-At the start organised a well planned team formation
-Sounded fancy but was pretty much useless and wasn't used
-Pretty crap team leader
-Found out how she controlled the ogres but watching her fingers
-Needed Temari's help in the end

Shikamaru and team vs Hidan
-Fail
-Got some nice blades of Asuma

Inoshikacho formation
-Oh wow what a powerful formation.... not.

When will people learn that not to just hear he is smart and then assume he is the smartest person out there and that slow and steady doesn't always win the race. Patience is different from taking a long time to think about it.

Okay, look, I'll go easy on you, but I couldn't get past this statement. How can I respect your opinions if what you say is factually incorrect? Games like Chess and Shogi developed from, I believe, an Indian game (and I mean Indians from India).

If you've done any study of either, then it would be painfully obvious that Shogi is very different than Chess, especially in difficulty/complexity. I understand that there's a bunch of nincompoops calling Shogi "Japanese Chess"...that's like calling sake rice wine... :facepalm:

It's not my fault that western culture is blindingly stupid, highly arrogant and very uneducated. I can't do anything about it, they're very persistant in this. I may address the rest of your posts, but not until you've studied a little or can at least admit that you're in error.

"Any man worth his salt will stick up for what he believes right, but it takes a slightly better man to acknowledge instantly and without reservation that he is in error." -Andrew Jackson

Yes, this is me going easy on you, deal with it. :cool:

To all the people who just says "bias" and "fanboy" and think that its the counter to any argument. It's not relavent and offtopic almost. Give your opinions on the matter or STFU!
