The Worst Hokage

[Coyote]

All the Hokages are good in their own regard.

So, by what you say, when a father raise his kid, and give him good education, but the kid then (when teenager) gets on drugs, leaves home and gets like a hobo, it's the father fault?
THATS F*CKING STUPID!
Orochimaru had twisted ideas, third tried to help him, it wasn't of much, but it wasn't third's fault.
Example: Naruto, Itachi and Kakashi have fault for the mistakes Sasuke have made by not making him stop? NO!!!

If you **** things up with your twisted ideas, don't blame the others :flaw:

Did I ever state it was the 3rd's fault that Orochimaru was twisted? If so please show me where I said them exact words cause I never did say that. It is his fault however that when he could have stopped him he didn't. If a father saw his son taking drugs and didn't stop him that kinda is his fault. And your example only proves to me that they have tried to stop Sasuke before it got to the point of him trying to kill everyone. The 3rd Hokage let Orochimaru escape. Anything Orochimaru did afterwards as far as experimenting on people, kidnapping people, killing people, the life of the Kazekage and placing curse marks on people in attempt to make them seem important in life, the 3rd holds the share of responsibility in that because he couldn't bring himself to kill his own student at the time.

lets be realistic place yourself in the shoes of the 3rd hokage
would you have been able to kill your own student

The fact that you chose the 3rd as the worst Hokage shows that you know nothing.

First, Minato didn't tell anyone to tell anybody that Naruto was the host of the Kyuubi. Are you serious? You're blaming Hiruzen for not spreading the word that Naruto was the jinchuriki for the 9tails? The village already knew he was the host. That's the reason everyone was afraid of him and treated him bad. You think it'd make a difference if the Hokage said anything? Either way he was the host and people knew. Hiruzen wouldn't have been able to change anything.

Second, you still know nothing. Fine, the 3rd Hokage might have been able to overrule the elders' decision, but guess what? That would have led to war. Do you know what that means? Konoha would have fallen into chaos, Uchihas fighting non-Uchihas, then, while the village is falling and growing weak, other villages would invade and it'd result in a full blow Ninja World War in an attempt to overthrow Konoha and rule the Fire Country. This decision had nothing to do with Sarutobi. Even if Minato were in that position, it would have ended the same way. Sarutobi chose the lesser of two evils, though I doubt you'd be able to understand this logic seeing as you don't even understand the other.

Sarutobi isn't on my bad side but I'm not a major fan of him either. I just can't stand the stupidity of your reasoning to chose him as the "worst" Hokage.



If any of them have to be chosen, then it should be the 2nd. We know very little, if anything, about his reign. On top of that he invented the Edo Tensei which, no matter how you look at it, has no positive outcomes/benefits whatsoever. I'm not saying he wasn't a good Hokage, but based on how little we know of him he gets chosen by default.

I agree, Hiruzen would definitely have volunteered to do it. But still, when it comes down to it I don't think Hiruzen would have been able to do it. He's already aged pretty heavily by then (even if this was ~16 years ago) so he might have had chakra issues while trying to seal the resisting Kyuubi

Alot of what you said was entirely false but w/e. With all that said you never stated who is the worst Hokage. Not saying any of them were horrible but there is always a best and a worst.

I can't let other people I love lives been endangered because of one. Kakashi was fully prepared to kill Sasuke but he didnt have the strength to take him for real anyways.

 

[blackbird31468]

tsunade, i know her intentions are in the right place, but she puts to much faith in naruto like he's the hokage and not her. he's always doing what he wants and she doesn't take control. she's also the weakest out of them all.

 

[PTR]

Yes, definitely Danzo if you include him.

To be honest, as strong and gifted as Kakashi is... I don't see him making a very good Hokage.

Danzo had wind,wood,water,earth and ying-yang realese.The ten sharingans on his right arm gave him the ability to use izanagi for 60 seconds for each eye making him unkilable for 10 minutes.Because of Shisuis m.s and 1rsts dna he could use kotoamatsukami 1 time per day.Plus he was very skilled in ninjutsu as we see in his battle with Sasuke.You propably dont like his ideology and actions i get that but saying that he is the weakest compared to the other hokages is just stupid.

 

[Mr.Beastie]

The fourth didnt sacrifice his life for the village. He couldve survived he put being a father and a husband before fulfilling his duties as hokage. So he is the worst.

 

[lXxNaGaToxXl]

My vote for the worst Hokage goes to the 3rd...

He didnt pass on the word of Naruto being the savior of the village for bearing the nine tails that the fourth put in him... Like come on the fourth Hokage specificly told the frog to tell the third to tell people that Naruto was the Hero and not a villian for haveing the Nine tails sealed in him... but he didnt and he tried to cover up the nine tails attack and everyone who remembered it treated Naruto shitty as a child...

Strike two... He allowed the Uchia massacre to occurr as the hokage he could have over powered the elders decision to kill the Uchia

The 3rd sucks as a hokage not a shinobi... Whos your worst Hokage

none they all did what they believe in. even if he told the people about naruto do you think there opinion would change? if the massacre didnt happen then what would be the point of this manga?

 

[lXxNaGaToxXl]

If the fourth wasn't there the konoha would be destroyed by the tail beast ball. So i say the 5th was the worst even if she have creation rebirth it has a long term aftereffect on her leaving the konoha vulnerable to enemies.

lol what?

 

[Hipster Madara]

minato is the worst....

 

[Jae Dong180]

Wheres the option for 4th....
- - course OP has a minato avatar lawlz

 

[Ai Senju]

the third ruled for quite some time, much more than any other, and during that time, Konoha was the strongest of the 5 villages, he prevented a world war with the uchiha massacre (even tho he didn't want that), point is the Uchiha had to be stopped. Orochimaru would have done some serious damage if he didn't sacrificed himself...so he was awesome. also if u combine the years Hashirama,Tobirama,Minato and Tsunade ruled as Hokage it wouldn't make up for the time Hiruzen was on the "throne", and the longer you stay on top, there are more chances to make mistakes, yet I don't see any.
also the other 4 hokage were all great in their on way, we don't know much about 1st and 2nd, maybe if Tobirama didn't give the Uchiha to control the police force but instead a place in the goverment, the massacre wouldn't occur...maybe...I mean we just don't know these things. we've seen the 3rd and the 5th and a little of minato...Hiruzen Sarutobi was a great Hokage as much as he was a shinobi. I can't say who is the worst, sorry.

 

[BondedByBlood]

Actually, I think the 2nd is the worst. He is the least talked about Hokage and he hasn't done anything as special as the others....
1st: Fought Madara and creahed Konoha
3rd: Fought Orichimaru and saved Konoha
5th: Risked her life to save the injured during the battle of Pain and Naruto.
If i'm wrong then maybe I'm not watching the series properly.....

 

['Kurapika]

i think you forgot to add the fourth

he was too busy hugging a picture of him and naming cats minato

 

[Shisui Namikaze]

I agree. The third also let orochimaru crazy ass kidnap children then he let him kill the anbu that was with him and then orochimaru said kill me and he let him go. He sucks ass for that. But tsunade is the worst. She let konoha get destroyed. The others wouldnt have allowed that to happen.

 

[amare95]

I thknk tsunade is the worst
she is to week and not serio:

You make some valid points on the difficulty the 3rd Hokage had in his role.

The 3rd also sacrificed himself to save the village and seal his teachers/former Kage. He was smart enough to make Minato the 4th Hokage rather than Orochimaru. The biggest point you missed is I believe the 3rd was Hokage longer than anyone. If Minato lived he would've had to dealt with the Uchiha massacre and the Hyuga incident...actually all the things you listed wouldn't have happened if Minato lived.

If I had to say the worst Hokage overall it would likely be Tsunade. She isn't powerful enough to deter aggression on the Leaf village. If Tsunade was Hokage when Orochimaru attacked the Leaf the entire village may have been destroyed...assuming Jiraiya didn't have a way to seal the former Kage. She made some questionable decisions specifically regarding Sasuke.

Bottomline for me when comparing Tsunade to her predecessors she doesn't make the cut in being capable of protecting the village. In my opinion that's the most important role of the Hokage.

 

[Bad Luck Brian]

They were all great, and none were "bad" but I guess my vote would be the second, just because we don't hear much about him

 

[Hipster Madara]

4th is the worst because even tho its sounds cruel, he should have let madara kill naruto, protect kushina and save the village before anyone died . u cant put a baby over the whole village plus, he can always have another one. he has to get his priorities set.
plus all the other hokages gave up their lives for the village also so thats not a good excuse
