I don't think the slug princesses should be on there.
Same with Itachi and Sasuke.

By taijutsu feats, I don't mean punching the ground like Sakura. I'm talking about pure martial art skill like Neji, Gai, Lee, Kakashi and Madara (Maybe Itachi and Naruo as well) have. The only main thing the 3rd/4th raikage have are linear attacks that are amplified with lightning armor.

You obviously have no idea what taijustu is in this aspect.

Everyone has their own style but its all still taijustu.

Tsunade and A dont need flash moves because they have regeneration and strong durability where they can be linear without problems.

Just because they have their own style, it doesn't mean they're good at it bruh.

Manga disagrees with you. Taijustu is hand to hand comabt, that is what they do and that is what they are good at.

The way her punching ability is explained makes it sound more like a ninjutsu.

How so? To make her punches stronger, she adds chakra. Just in the same way A makes himself faster with the shroud.

Well all taijutsu should release chakra when they strike.
In fact anything that they will to happen should take chakra.

This list is a tad skewed. To give those who just bludgeon credence in actual taijutsu skill is not fair. That's like saying Superman is a better fighter than Batman even though Batman has mastered every single martial art there is and blends them seamlessly.

Firstly, Naruto should be high tier. He can go with Pain in his old base mode alone, can , , , and to attacks made by several people at once while predicting and deflecting their moves. And that's without Sage sensing which allows him to react to top tier speed blitzers like Sandaime Raikage and .

And I don't think there's any question Gai deserves the top spot, but you'e also placed Sasuke too high when his taijutsu is nothing special especially compared to Itachi, Kakashi, or Kakuzu. Dare I say, even Choji is above Sakura in taijutsu with his Butterfly Mode factored in.

Third/Fourth Raikage shouldn't be on their

Lightning style is NIN jutsu. That means third raikage's pleasure finger isn't taijutsu. That's also not BARE handed either.

I would say top 5

Gai
Lee
Naruto/Sasuke
Tsunade

Gai, Lee, Neji, Hiashi, Tsunade, and Madara are tried and true taijutsu masters, who can fight and defeat many high level shinobi using only their bare fists alone. The rest may be high class as well, but only the above mentioned have the conditioning, experience, and skills necessary for them to take someone down using pure taijutsu.

The raikages use nintaijutsu, not exactly fair to compare them to true taijutsu users.

Itachi and Sasuke, while adept in taijutsu, especially with their sharingan, their taijutsu by itself has not been emphasized as much as the others have, as that area of combat is not their forte, therefore, they are not eligible to be considered for this kind of comparison for the absolute top of the line best in pure taijutsu.

Sakura, like itachi and sasuke is rather adept in taijutsu being trained by tsunade herself, but her main focus is primarily healing as it should be, being a medic ninja. Therefore, it goes without saying that for right now, sakura cannot compete with the upper echelon of taijutsu users.

The last thing left, is SM Naruto. In SM, Naruto becomes very powerful, with enhanced speed, strength, reflexes, and sensing and even an invisible aura that he can use to his advantage. This makes him a force to be reckoned with even in just taijutsu, HOWEVER, he shouldn't be rated as highly as many people do simply because of SM. When we refer to a persons ability to use taijutsu, not only do we consider their enhanced forms, but their base forms, and in base, naruto has not shown anything that is truly outstanding enough to compare with taijutsu masters. So while im not saying he shouldnt be rated high on the taijutsu scale, his feats in SM should not be the only determining factor in his taijutsu ability.

Oh God did you just... count Tsunade(brute force) and Sakura (brute force)? Why don't you count Tobirama and Minato as well, since speed > brute force.

Gai's Taijutsu > NV Taijutsu

It's almost impossible to judge peoples taijutsu skill, as most people don't even use bare hand to hand combat anymore. For example, Minato and Tobirama are extremely fast, but they tend to use close range jutsus(or swords in tobirama's case) to finish off the opponent-which isn't pure taijutsus. Even Madara relies more on his gunbai/weapons, sasuke relies on his kenjutsus and itachi his shurikenjutsu. The only ones at this point who even use pure hand on hand combat are gai/lee, the hyuugas and maybe naruto is one of his modes.(like SM/KCM etc)
