Wtf happened to rock lee?!

[Mellorox9]

I agree. It annoys me how they completely tossed him aside after that fight :dunno: He is extremely strong and i still think he could beat most of the K11 easily

 

[Thundercles]

All the way back at the chunin exams when he vs'd Gaara he was super OP and stronger than anyone! He got nerfed soooo much. He was super fast and strong and had those gates. Now he's just a fimbly little girl One of my fave fights is still gaara vs lee! But after that lee got treated pretty averagely. They over did that fight back then making him way too strong... but it was such as great fight. I just wish they had continued making him as good as he was. Showing more speed and opened gates! Also while I'm at it... HOW THE HECK DID LEE EVEN HAVE TO COMPETE WITH NEJI? He was always training to be as good as him? Ffs... He was way stronger and faster than neji. If he took of his leg weights and opened his gates neji would be raped easy, the byakugan can't keep up with that speed and power!!

Didnt he kick Madara in half??

 

[Fodder#4]

Rock Lee does as he pleases, he doesn't see the Juubi as worth his time. Nor is Madara!

 

[KingHashirama]

He'll get screentime if its needed. Any importance of him? no.

 

[~Naruto&Itachi~]

He is having some fun time with Tenten or him, Tenten, and Gai are having a funeral for Neji

 

[elsepa]

This war ain't worth my nigga Rock Lee's time.

 

[Amaterasuice]

Didn't Neji realize the weaknesses of Lee's jutsu at the end of his fight? If Neji could protect himself until Lee lost, Neji wins. Lee was both stronger than Neji and Gaara, but they could wait him out until the gates made him defenseless.

All of this is irrelevent cuz he kicked Madara in half. He's pretty strong.

Yeah, IMO Rock lee was the strongest character in part 1. But the reason why he was on pair with Neji and couldn't beat him was because he never used his eight gates against him. On multiple points this was talked about when Neji said he had never seen it himself and was shocked to see that it was even Lee fighting like that and how Rock Lee said that he was saving it for Neji. At that point 8 gates could've probably killed Neji if Rock lee went all out with it, but Rock lee is kinda irrelevant now. Dunno' why, people don't even know where he is, Lmfao.

Ki didn't mean like at this point haha I mean throughout the whole series ;o after gaara and kimi he never really used much power again. Like when he fought kisame with gai and tenten and neji. They could of killer kisame right then and there !!

Close range??? Neji has air palm vacuum...air palm vacuum wall, palm bottom and mountain crusher all which range from short to long and Neji defense is one of the best and the fact that he can see u when u think your being sneaky is another thing

Eight Trigrams Vacuum Palm - Short to Mid range

Eight Trigrams Vacuum Wall Palm - 2 people doing Eight Trigrams Vacuum Palm - Still Short to Mid range

Eight Trigrams Mountain Crusher - Powered up version of Eight Trigrams Vacuum Palm - Still Short to Mid Range

Gentle Fist requires the user to physically hit or be extremely close to the user, Neji is close range.

and lee opening the gates is like whatever range he wants to fight at because once he goes into the gates u can't escape him running is out of the question and he can close the distance as fast as A, Bm Naruto, and Minato ftg

Lee still has to travel to physically hit his target. That doesn't make him able to fight at long range, he just has an advantage over long range users. are A & Minato long range users simple because they can move extremely fast?

Team Guy are Short - Mid range Specialists

 

[gullagullagulla]

False. Kages, Akatsuki, Bee, Gaara, etc. have all been developed in exchange for characters that were more developed in part 1 like Lee.

Yes yes I was exaggerating. My point is that I don't think it's good writing to introduce a great cast of supporting characters and then abandon almost all of them "in exchange" for new characters, as you say.

 

[GiantShuriken]

A lot of Part 1 characters who were powerful became weak. I remember Sasuke used to consider both Lee and Neji as powerful adversaries, but then they became absolute garbage in part 2.

Rock Lee had alot of potential with the 8 Gates. Kishi needs to develop the Konoha characters a little more.
