Who's a better Shinobi? Naruto vs Sasuke

[Lucci]

People saying Sasuke are generally fooled by the fact that he has a unique fighting style. I.e. He's very acrobatic in his taijutsu, and gives off on "awesome" kinda aura when fighting or executing a jutsu. This does not mean that he is a better shinobi, it simply means that his fighting style is easier on the eye. In the manga, it's all about efficiency, and Naruto is far more efficient with his moves. As of the current Manga, Naruto > Sasuke in every aspect except for Genjutsu and if you cannot see this then you haven't been paying attention to the manga at all.

However I cannot deny that up until Naruto attained Sage Mode, Sasuke was leading the way.

Sasuke was cool until he bit Karin xd

naruto always wins his battle with great strategy. And thats the fact accept it. P.S Itachi s eyes an unfair advantage

Never said he dont, its just that he can make more mistakes in a fight without losing, whereas if it was some other shinobi in his place he would had been dead..kyubi advantage..
I dont see itachi's eyes an unfair advantages as its an EMS is an ability for which you need other eyes..if thats unfair then biju bomb that naruto makes is also..bt here we not talking about attacks we are talking about shinabi in the truest sense of the word.
Shikamaru has very few attacks but a great shinobi..
In the same context sasuke is better shinobi then naruto.

A lot of fanwank in this thread. This isn't who would win in a fight, this is who is a better all around shinobi. The answer is Sasuke and it should be obvious.
He has an overall better skill set that makes him far more versatile. Ay may be more powerful but Kakashi is a better shinobi because he is far more well rounded. The only things Naruto is better in are stamina and maybe taijutsu.
Sasuke is better at ninjutsu due to his mastery of 2 elements and and other jutsu, better genjutsu, speed, seals, and tactical leadership skills.

I think naruto is a better shinobi just because i feel like sasuke just attacks now. Thats just my opinion!

"The true measure of a shinobi is not how he lives, but how he dies" - J man

And since none of them has died yet, we can't tell for sure.

Naruto, because unfortunately he has the power of the protagonist, an undefeatable power which makes the character of which it is applied to invulnerable to death. Unless of course you come from the universe of Dragonball Z.
And can I just add neither of these characters are in my top ten favourite characters, so I'm not being a fanboy here. I like Naruto and Sasuke, but I don't prefer either of them over eachother. They stand on even ground in my preference of them.

Naruto strategy as I see it: ROFL SPAM RASENSHURIKEN, MLG PRO NINJA.
Sorry for the double post...

do you really read this manga right ? spam without strategy equals death !

 

[The Necromancer]

It's easily sasuke. Naruto may be stronger because he can spam thousands of clones to use sheer force. But powerups not withstanding, Sasuke is a better shinobi. Naruto fights only with shadow clones while sasuke has far many more strategies. If naruto's strategy fails, it's pretty much over for him as evidenced by the Pain fight, whereas Sasuke has more diversity in his strategy.

 

[freaks99]

what ? naruto strategies never fails ! sasuke have more strategies because he used sharingan

 

[Luv2smash19]

to be able to master a 20 year technique like the rasenshuriken in a week is like naruto being his own hyperbolic time chamber

 

[Morality]

This is a wide topic and it depends about the idea of what better is, I mean at Sasuke is better at not spewing the same lines over and over about his friends, who his parents were, what he is going to be, and how he will save the world. But I think you are right though both characters just spam their respective techniques over and over. And Naruto has a better reason to fight.

 

[freaks99]

why kakashi spaming kamui ? why naruto spaming rasengan ? why minato spaming Ftg and rasengan?

 

[Ero sennin jiraiya]

Depends what you're talking about. When it comes to raw power I'd say Naruto. When it comes to strategizing and mastering many techniques I'd say Sasuke.

 

[phantomlord22]

for me

both of them

 

[Fidelity]

Who do you think is better at fighting and an overall better shinobi? Naruto or Sasuke?

I know u know that, the whole Shinobi world know that, Sasuke Uchiha knows that Uzumaki Naruto is a better Shinobi, if you doubt me ask Uchiha Sasuke himself.

 

[Brainy0]

Sasuke sucks. . . . .totally sucks. . .
