Now don't get the title mistaken. Their are plenty of anime series and even in real life situations where the fundamental of water is an importance with great strengths. But in the Naruto world, it practically is useless. Here is why:

1) Water nature is effective against Fire...but according to the Naruto World: Fire can also be effective in evapourating Water. We've seen Fire do that job plenty of times.

2) Besides the Uchiha, who else utilizes Fire in the Naruto World? & even the Uchiha themselves have occular eye jutsu's to back them up against a single water jutsu fighter. Judging from how much water-based soldiers were required to extinguish Edo-Madara's fire based jutsu alone during the beginning of his summon.....I can leave this subject immediatly.

3) Earth nature absorbs water either through plant or mud. In real life however, there are different variations of Earth elements which are absolutely Weak against water but of course lets stick with the Naruto World. So Earth takes the champion belt home.

4) Lighting feeds, grows and sharpens her whole body from the waist line on water. Lol just look what happened to Suigetsu when he was hit with Darui's Lightning. He was completely paralyzed like a Game Boy Pokemon Magikarp against a Raichu.

5) Good old Wind. Well, I think this is neutral. But then again, if the wind is strong enough, it could direct the water back to the user:confused: Can you imagine drowning by your own saliva:shrug:


So my point is, that the only purpose for water in the Naruto Universe is to be used as a stepping stool for kekkei genkais. From Ice (Which also sucks by the way if you do your research) to Wood or Boil release. The rest of the other elements have a greater purpose and ordinary users can go further in battle by using any 1 of the elements besides water. So much for the hidden mist village! What you guys think?

Totally disagree.

Water beasts out both fire and earth, if you're an skilled water user you can form your water to an beam and basically cut everything around you (just like Sasori did).

I will say it is one of the best

The problem with the lightning argument is that in cases like Darui's water technique, if the OPPONENT is using a lightning jutsu, they basically just strengthened the attack that's about to hit him. They'd have to push the water back in the opposite direction for that to work, wouldn't they? I think the whole lightning + water combination leaves a lot of possibilities myself.

Overall it depends what jutsu you get out of Water Style. The Hidden Mist, most/all of Kisame's attacks, Yagura's mirror technique, and some others that I'm probably forgetting seem pretty powerful.

The lightning reason may possibly depend on the strength of the attacks. Like Chidori vs that massive shark thing that absorbs chakra that Kisame uses. Also there are many other powerful water jutsu in the narutoverse that I could use as an example.

Water > Earth

Water > Wind

If anything Wind or Earth are probably the weakest

No man. Wind is rare but also required to fight against lightning. Also Earth is noted to be strong against this water which everyone is overating here. The weakest link is water man. The 2nd Hokage was renowned for mastering the edo-tensei which practically doesn't involve the element itself and furthermore, his combination attacks with his brother presently beside him

I have to disagree with you. According to the manga when Edo-Madara's first encountered the allied forces, it took a whole row of Water-based ninjas to even neutralize his fire based jutsu. & to bring more evidence of this, look at the warm up battle with Itachi vs Kisame. How in the world did Itachi's fire neutralize Kisame's Water? I can't answer that but it did happen.

No shit, what do you expect when Madara pulls out fire? Tobirama destroyed Hiruzen's mountain with his water, and blocked his fire technique with no problem.

You underrestimate water way to much

Yeah don't get me wrong. I do agree with you that it is quite powerful when combined with other elements to make bloodline moves but either then that, a single water based ninja has no purpose. Who is he/she going to have an upper hand on? An Uchiha? I doubt he/she will win. Not many people have prime Fire based nature, only with the exception of a kekkei genkai combination.

Fire rarely hits on-screen and when it does it's usually fodders who fall victim.

Only Danzo has used the Wind affinity well, besides the Rasenshuriken.

Only fat people have Earth.

So yeah, it's number 2 in my incredibly serious list here.
