Ok so, Naruto has turned a lot into a load of magic and hocus pocus...
back in part one, these characters were actual ninja...i cant even remember the last time i saw an actual tactic or someone THROWING a kunai...

Obviously it takes planning and strategy to fight any battle - but i feel like its been majorly neglected for a very very long time!

so that brings the question...

Who is your top 3 favourite - actual ninja!

Most people (i hope) will agree with me saying that no.1 is:

1. Shikamaru <3
2. ----
3. ----

You decide, and tell me if u think im right about shikamaru?

Kakashi, IMO he still does ninja like stuff.

Shikamaru for sure.

Lee is pretty awesome IMO

back in part one, these characters were actual ninja...

ninja |ˈninjə|
noun
a person skilled in ninjutsu.

ninjutsu |ninˈjoŏtsoō|
noun
the traditional Japanese technique of espionage, characterized by stealthy movement and camouflage. It was developed in feudal times for military purposes and subsequently used in the training of samurai.

I'd like to see you justify how any of the characters (except maybe ANBU) were ever "actual ninja". I hear this complaint a lot, but come on! It's like expecting One Piece to be about pirates.

Shikamaru's my favorite character, so I agree with you there. I also think Neji and Kakashi are great ninja.

Also, I finished attempting your avatar. Post in that thread if you want me to do anything differently. I'm happy to try.

Well from what I understand an overpowered magician to be, (some one not given any power ups (tailed beast, free eyes), and some one not born with a kekkei genkai/totta/eyes/special clan) This would leave Orochimaru, Jiriaya, Guy, konan, Kisame (although samehada is cheap), Hiruzen, Minato... Some else I guess.

THIS IS WHAT MAKES YOU A SHINOBI!!!! (Defending your comrads, defending your village, completing the mission set forth they gave you...if u love shikamaru..fine...i like his character as well...but never ever say...just because some ninja in the series are somewhat OP'd that it automatically makes them not really a ninja...you kinda are disillusioned by what a shinobi represents in this anime....go look up rock lee when he was underestimated by his peers for not having any talent as a ninja! go look up naruto when he was a shrimp who couldnt even create a decent clone in the academy! this whole thread is betrayal to those ive mentioned...you sicken me..:eek: )

That is what the manga says a ninja is. A modern day version of a ninja is a spy. They do everything in the shadows. Although Itachi counts as an 'overpowered magician', his killing his whole clan from the shadows from to protect his village is something a actual shinobi would do. Therefore the only ones that actually apply to this is the ANBU really
