Chapter 175: Naruto vs. Sasuke!!
END
Tomorrow: Rivals
>>279782870the only OST sauce deserves in his current mental state is circus clown music
>>279782585Fucking called out
reminds me of me and my brother, when we started fighting for fun at first, but then gradually started hitting each other seriously
>>279782585>being called equal triggers saucejust get a load of this cunt
>>279782695>does this as his opening move on what he believes is friendly sparring, but not in a life or death situation a couple chapters ago
>>279783100jiraiya told him mass shadow clones would be a waste of time
Right, gather 'round, you casuals, because we need to talk about Sasuke Uchiha. Not the Sasuke of Shippuden, who actually gets some nuance injected into his trauma-addled brain, nor the adult Sasuke who vaguely resembles a functional human. No, I'm talking about Part 1 Sasuke. The emo, brooding, perpetually constipated edgelord who, upon critical re-evaluation, is not just annoying, but fundamentally a horrible character, and not in the compelling "villain we love to hate" way. More in the "why is anyone tolerating this brat?" way.
His entire character arc, if you can even call it that in Part 1, is built on a foundation of monomaniacal, self-absorbed vengeance. We get it, Itachi killed your clan. Tragic. Truly. But does every single interaction, every training session, every moment of screen time have to revolve around this singular, suffocating goal? It renders him incapable of genuine connection, growth, or even basic strategic thinking beyond "I must get stronger to kill Itachi." Itโs less a motivation and more a convenient excuse for him to be an insufferable edgelord cunt.
>>279783310>But does every single interaction, every training session, every moment of screen time have to revolve around this singular, suffocating goal?Not in Konoha Crush when he was just a rival making his re-entrance.
>>279783172He must not know just how "mass" Naruto can conjure. A thousand Narutos could jump Kabuto and suffocate him under a pile of bodies, and no amount of AoE jutsus could save him from that before he's overwhelmed and/or out of chakra.
>>279783310An adult human being wrote this post.
Hard as it is to believe
>>279783463>You're making me angry Naruto>Don't make me hit you!You know, maybe it's a good thing he was absent from Sarada's life.
>>279782936Thank you OP.
It's amazing how unsufferable Sasuke became, after being all that time a good character.
Also despite shonen's love for this kind of battles as something positive here Sakura is right, Chidori isn't a jutsu you should use during sparring.
>>279782639Why isn't sauce speed blitzing Nardo here? Did his body weaken that much?
>>279783310I'm almost sure this is bait, but just to humour you no, in part 1 he spends a lot of time worrying about Naruto and Sakura, almost never mentioning his revenge, and almost sacrificed it to save Naruto against Haku. It's in shippuden where he only revolves around revenge until the very end.
>>279782695Wait already? Guess the anime really extended their sparring, I remember Sasuker beating the shit out of Nardo for a good 5 minutes before this
>>279783643Didn't he just wake up from a 2 month coma? Makes sense that his body is not up to par
>>279782850Looking at this now, I think Nardo really was just t fault here as Sauce. He's too eager to prove himself. he whipped out the rasengan, which is a potentially deadly move, prompting sauce to whip out chidori. An older Nardo would have noticed Sauce's mental state. I'll give props to Kishi here, it's good writing.
Naruto should have a jutsu where he combines a bunch of shadowclones to form a huge shadowclone mecha with all of it's parts made of shadowclones
Kishi you can steal my idea if you want it's a really good one I know
>>279783760I mean, he was, Kakashi notes that after this
>>279782729>>279782751I wonder if Kishi wanted Naruto Barrage to be a signature move, cause this is the 3rd time it gets used (Kiba, Gaara, and now here)
>>279782781>>279782815>Naruto gets bathed in flames>Does zero damageJOBBER STYLE
>>279783643Because they are more or less equal, as stated by Naruto.
>But the scaling...Doesn't matter to Kishimoto.
>>279783856When did Nardo get as fast as weightless Lee?
>>279782433Naruto's potbelly
>>279783958When he managed to hit Gaara probably.
>>279782585I love how basically everything before had led up to this. I think this is Naruto at its best, every previous arc basically builds up to this moment where they have so much to prove to each other.
>>279783958He didn't, Sauce just never uses Lees speed post Gaara fight again
>>279784029But they're not thinking about each other specifically though. They just see each other as obstacles to overcome. It's kind of mean spirited actually, selfish in the way kids often are.
>>279783760I rather have more of Part I Naruto proving to Pein, the Akatsuki, Madara and Obito than Part II Naruto the Messiah
>>279782781Sakura:AIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>279784263Part 1 Nardo is interested mostly in proving the worth to his own existence, He'd get bodied by Pain, whose suffering is greater than his.
>>279784321He'd recruit Pein to the Leaf and shut him up about being poor in the Rain village when Nagato has a titcow who cares for him.
>>279784483part 1 Nardo has Tsunade, he can't complain
>>279783825He does it in the anime all the time during the filler arcs
Kinda sucks because its a rip off of a rip off
>>279782453oh yeah, sakura doesn't know what orochimaru actually looks like, does she. She only saw his half-melted mask.
>>279782531>>279782555>>279782585This feels like an RPG and Naruto is intentionally picking all the wrong dialogue options.
>>279782815>using the move that blew Kabuto's guts against Sasuke in what he assumes is a friendly spar.
>>279784923sasuke tried incinerating him
>>279782936Sakura is about to knock them both out in 1 go
>>279782936I think Sakura is about to knock them both out in 1 go using her superior chakra control thus showing how all 3 characters have improved. Perhaps with a short flashback of her training in the next chapter? man I can't wait !
>>279782936You could've possibly stopped this if you had TRAINED you lazy fuck.
>>279782585>>279782610Sasuke gets a lot of shit but it actually makes sense from his perspective:
>Unconscious when Naruto beat Haku, presumably just thinks Kakashi saved him>Didn't see Naruto fight Kiba or Neji>Has no idea about fox chakra>Has no idea about the multiple training sessions with one of the legendary sanninFrom Sasuke's point of view Naruto went from a complete joke who got successfully jumped by jobber genin in the forest of death to having kaiju battles with an opponent who Sasuke couldn't beat even after overusing his new super move. Also since he doesn't know about any of the fox bullshit he probably thinks Itachi being more interested in Naruto than him has to do with Naruto's skill and abilities. And now sure enough here's "loser" Naruto matching Sasuke blow for blow even when he's using the sharingan. It's not surprising Sasuke's having a bit of a crisis.
>>279784954Only after Nardo summoned 100 clones and ganged up on him from all sides
>>279782585Eat your heart out anon from the previous thread saying Sauce doesn't care about his golden boy status.
>>279784726Sasuke doesn't know what orochimaru looks like either. in the forest orochimaru still wore parts of his grass-nin-mask, during the prelims orochimaru was in his jonin-disguise, sasuke fell unconscious right before orochimaru confronted kakashi, and during the finales sasuke ran away to chase gaara right before orochimaru ripped off his kazekage-mask.
>>279785090so naruto is justified because sasuke tried to burn him alive good to know
>>279785067Nah, Sasuke has noted Naruto's growth since the forest of death. He's just upset at how fast he's improving compared to himself
>>279782850>>279782936This is a nit pick but where is Sauce getting the momentum to charge at Naruto? He's mid air, and should be falling straight down
>>279785050How would the superior chakra control help in 1shotting them, maybe she will use a genjutsu after all the hype she received on them?
>>279785134However you look at it, every technique Sauce used was in retaliation to Nardo's. The latter took it too far as well.
>>279783643>>279783733Neji wasn't fully blitzing Naruto either, why should Sasuke?
>>279784076This is headcanon
>>279785162We don't know yet it could be revealed in the flashback that she can do a special jutsu like sauce and nart thanks to it? but I like your genjutsu idea
>>279784954That was never going to happen
>>279785208He's on the Boruto thread, luckily.
>>279785208I'm fine thank you for asking
>>279782474>ones made of a different materialSasukek...
>>279785050to think about how many broken dreams this series created because we were young and stupid. "can't wait to see Neji and Rock Lee fighting and showing their skills it will be so awesome"
>>279782531>even in his day to day interactions his brother's words just haunt his every moment Holy fuck I would go schizo too, legit hearing voices shit
>>279785151He doesn't understand the context for why though which is a big part of the problem. If Sasuke knew a big reason for Naruto's growth was that he gets to cheat with an effectively infinite chakra battery he can call on at will he'd probably be significantly less assblasted over the whole thing.
>>279785067>>Unconscious when Naruto beat Haku, presumably just thinks Kakashi saved him>>Didn't see Naruto fight Kiba or Neji>>Has no idea about fox chakra>>Has no idea about the multiple training sessions with one of the legendary sanninDo they really never fucking interact
You'd think Naruto would want to brag to Sasuke about his accomplishments
>>279785339>Sasukek didn't do his due diligence when comparing his attack to Nardo'sHe would never make it as a Mythbuster
>>279785351w-what are you saying?
>>279783310I like to think Sasuke is avoidant because he's afraid to lose someone he cares about again. Until he can over come his trauma with Itachi, it will always linger over him. Being too weak to avenge his clan could also mean he's too weak to protect the ones he loves. Yet he tries anyway. But Itachi barges in and rips open that old wound.
>>279785067>Has no idea about fox chakraBut Naruto used it plenty during his fight with Gaara, no way Sasuke missed it.
>>279782639>Naruto didnt learn one iota of taijutsu or even solo train it since becoming a shinobi>Sasuke has been comatose for a month and his muscles have atrophiedSo it's a slap fight between the two class retards, huh?
>>279785393They fucking barely interact. It's why the anime had to go out of it's way with filler because you would rightfully think Nardo was going on a schizo crusade over someone he barely knew.
>>279785401>But Itachi barges in and rips open that old wound.Itachi loves his little brother by the way
>>279785361He's obsessively spamming Who? to anyone posting a character, he did it once here and then stopped.
>>279785151It's not the growth specifically but the fact he was surpassed, Sakura Maybe a much bigger jump in part 2 and he didn't bat an eye since she couldn't take on him.
>>279782695What I like about this technique is, though it often looks bad in a fight, its because Kishi had to write the perfect opponents for it because if you don't have an answer to it, you lose on the spot. Mizumi is a great example, a chunin flattened in an instant by a kid who was barely a new genin. Now Neji, Sasuke, and plenty others have the perfect counter, but for most ninjas you're suddenly against like 40-100 fucking opponents all working in perfect unity. You absolutely HAVE to have perfect 360 vision, quick reflexes, and/ or great AOE.
>>279785504*made
Not maybe
>>279782815Real Naruto TANKED that
>>279785225He learned to mimic Lee's speed while training with Kakashi. I would rate Lee as faster than Neji. But it wouldn't matter anyway, since Sauce just woke up from a 2 month coma.
>>279785584Their speed was not that different to make him just blitz Naruto like that.
>>279785630Lee is significantly faster than all of the genin. Yes, he would blitz Nardo, he would even blitz his clones.
>>279785493He does it literally, too. I don't think Itachi could have done a better job at reinforcing his brothers trauma.
>goes after someone he cares about>acknowledges his brother as too weak for him to even care about, let alone to protect his friend, making years worth of training moot>makes him relive his entire clan assassination again for hours >enter comatoseHe was reliving his clans massacre even before Itachi's genjutsu
>>279785667He was not significantly faster than Neji
>>279785710Maybe not in base, but he is using the gates. The difference between Sauce and and Lee is that Sasuke's body isn't adapt to handle the gates for a long period or time. It was a rushed project.
>>279785710He was? we're talking about weightless Lee here, the only characters faster than him are Guy and the some of the Kages.
>>279785751Do Leefags really?
>>279785786>LeefagsI should clarify one thing about my wanking Lee, I'm referring specifically to Part 1 Lee in comparison to the other characters. Part 2 is a different thing.
>>279784877it does lol
>Sasuke will remember that
>>279785839Part 1 Lee was not faster than a jonin in base.
>>279784266Not even Sakura jobs to fire.
>>279785751Nta, but absolutely not, Neji isn't particularly surprised by Lee until he starts opening the advanced gates, and Lee himself thought Neji required his ultimate moves.
People comically underestimate Neji, he was constantly hyped, with his rotation being considered superior to Gaara's defense, and defeated fox-empowered Naruto, losing only to his preconceptions, wich made him underestimate Naruto.
>>279785877>He will remember that for a loooooooong time.>Sasuke holds grudges, that was a bad move.
>>279782610KANEEEDAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
>>279785907>Neji isn't particularly surprised by Lee until he starts opening the advanced gates, and Lee himself thought Neji required his ultimate moves.You could chalk Neji's lack of surprise due to being both Lee's and Guy's teammate. Both of them are bombastic, no way they would keep their training regimen secret. Also, Neji has his prejudices as you said. He logically should have been wary of Lee considering he was overwhelming Gaara's automatic sand defense, that doesn't even have the Hyuga blind spot weakness that Lee could easily exploit if he knew about.
Basically, I'm saying that Neji's confidence is beating Lee is unfounded, and he would lost to him for the same reason he lost to Nardo.
>>279785670Broly started the trend of anime characters with trauma. I guess you can count Tetsuo from Akira but it was often assumed the characters powers would kill them. Sasuke's problem is that he didn't start as the elite like Vegeta who's foundation got shattered or Future Gohan who threw himself into the meat grinder. Sasuke had a three man team for support, abandoned them for Orochimaru, then abandoned snakeman for the Akatsuki, betraying those for the Leaf. If he was written as ambitious it wouldn't be a problem but he needs his brother to tell him to avenge him making me wonder why he didn't go the Gungrave route.
>>279786050Neji literally beats Lee on a regular basis AND Lee's own admitted need to rely on gates to best him wouldn't make sense if Lee can just casually dodge anything Neji throws at him in base.
>>279786050While yes, Neji is overconfident, because of his belief failures are doomed to stay such, both Neji and Lee agreeing Neji is superior, and Tenten and Guy tacitly agreeing every time they state so implies they have a point.
>would lost to him for the same reason he lost to Nardo.This is a good point but I doubt Lee has the underhandedness to capitalize on that, beside also not having a counter to the byakugan like Naruto.
>>279785411He didn't go all red eyes fang mode and he wasn't close enough to see Naruto get wrapped in its aura at the end.
>>279785747Sasuke didn't move as fast as gated Lee, he moved as fast as base weightless Lee.
Leefags are NOT going to survive Neji calling base Kidomaru the "strongest foe he ever faced".
>>279785382Well yes, he came to that realisation during their fight later at the FV
>>279786154Did Neji beat weightless Lee? Reminder that Guy imposed a binding vow on Lee on when he's allowed to remove the weights.
>Lee's own admitted need to rely on gates to best him wouldn't make sense if Lee can just casually dodge anything Neji throws at him in base.Presumably because Neji dominates a weighted Lee. Weighted Lee is heavily gimped, he would lose before he could figure out Neji's weaknesses.
>>279786226Neji is a schizo, I don't trust his judgment
>>279786066I was thinking of parallels between Guts and Sasuke rather than Majin Vegeta. Not that it fits any better. I'm not sure who stated the trend of traumatised characters, but I think it would have started earlier than Broly of all characters.
>>279786232>Did Neji beat weightless Lee? Reminder that Guy imposed a binding vow on Lee on when he's allowed to remove the weights.Oh fuck off with this argument, the weights weren't even in Kishi's mind before the Gaara fight and you think Gai would be ok with Lee effectively killing himself while gimped?
Literally the whole point gets throw out of the Window if weightless Lee can beat Neji.
>>279786196My bad, I misremembered. I thought he learned to copy the first gate.
>>279786270>I'm not sure who stated the trend of traumatised characters, but I think it would have started earlier than Broly of all characters.Does Kenshiro count?
>>279786226Pretty much nobody could beat Kidomaru in the entire chuunin exam lineup outside of Gaara.
Neji is underestimated because he has no versatility. Throw a long range opponent at him like Kidomaru and even with the perfect counter and 360 vision he still got destroyed
>>279786355Never read it. But I think it influenced Beserk.
>>279786232>>279786269Nta but arguing that Neji is stronger than Lee when litterally every character surrounding the two and the two of them agree on this, Neji's defense being hyped as superior to Gaara's, Neji defeating fox-empowered Naruto, multiple character repeating Lee's feat of surpassing Gaara's defense after that fight, is really weird, particularly arguing base weightless Lee could speedblitz him and yet Lee still considers him the strongest genin in Konoha and his rival.
>>279786367Depending on how much you think he improved between arcs, Base Gaara probably couldn't either.
Why is sasukefag in the burrito thread lmao what is going on
>>279786473Because it's easy to bait him and I prefer him there rather than here.
>>279786367you underestimate Shikamaru's plot armor
>>279786595>>279786473Must be opposite day today
>>279785129Wait, you're right.
Sasuke really threw everything away to train under a guy whose face he's never actually seen.
>>279786399I always thought Kidomaru was just really smart. He figured out Neji's entire fighting style in like 10 seconds.
>>279786649Even a retard like Kiba could tell itโs best to avoid close combat with Neji, you need to actually have long-range techniques
>>279786649Yup, Kidomaru's strength has nothing to do with power levels. Neji had pretty much the hardest possible counter to Kidomaru's fighting style and still only barely edged it out.
>>279782531>You're a LOSER!>No I'm not!>Yes you are!Moments like these remind you that these characters are 12 years old.
It's easy to forget that with how much danger the adults willingly subject them to.
>>279786399>>279786703>perfect counterKidomaru is one of the few characters in the whole series who doesn't get hard countered by the gentle fist because he can secrete that non-chakra armor thing from his skin.
>>279786399Honestly that's universal, sniping combines the two tactics (long range and hidden attacks) against wich you can't truly interact, Kidomaru was an incredibly powerful fighter against wich there is no true easy counterplay.
>>279786802Not kekkei genkai btw.
>>279786802Nta but considering Sasuke needed Kagutsuchi AND Susanoo to cut his web if they didn't have the gentle fist to cut it they would have been screwed.
>>279784954>>279785090>>279785134>>279783760They're both constantly escalating, intentionally or not.
Sasuke asked for a fight, which Naruto thought would be a friendly match.
Naruto said to put the headband on, making Sasuke mad.
Sasuke refused, making Naruto mad.
In response, Naruto used way more clones than is strictly necessary.
In response, Sasuke tried to burn Naruto with his fireball jutsu.
In response, Naruto is breaking out the move that would've killed Kabuto, a jonin equivalent, if he wasn't a medical ninja with regen.
In response, Sasuke is countering Naruto's ultimate move with his ultimate move.
Either one of them could have de-escalated at any point, but they're retarded preteens with incredible power so of course they go too far.
>>279782781>>279782815>>279782850>abloo bloo why don't the jonin teach kids jutsuprobably to prevent this exact thing from happening
>>279787168It's what Sarutobi wanted, he's probably smiling in heaven watching this.
>>279787304every fucking time
my goddamn sides
>>279782585Sasuke stop being a cunt
>>279787168The idea is that they would also teach them discipline alongside those jutsus.
>>279788080Fucking hell, forgot the trip.
Haido

>>279786270Japan was and still is a rigidly conservative country where a man stays in his lane. Sasuke represents the younger generation who don't want to rise up the ranks. Keep in mind Naruto takes place in 2000 when men started going full D-Fens and nobody knows why because the economy went bad. If anything, Sasuke is criticized for the same reason Vegeta's liked, which is killing his friends for ultimate power.The difference is Freiza, Cell, Buu and Broly sees Vegeta as a chatterbox where as Sasuke is never punished until the Kage Arc. He's accusing Naruto of being a man whore luck shitter. This is why Naruto villains fall back on Gato themed businessman approaches cause Sasuke's hard to copy
>>279787168Kakashi doesn't care. Naruto warped his mind to stop them from killing each other or the trauma of killing Rin forced him to act.
>>279786367And Naruto, because what can he do against Gamabunta?
>>279788710He can just hide from them both. Gamabunta wouldn't bother.
>>279786806>there is no true easy counterplayIf your enemy is hidden, there's at least two counterplays, either get summons that have tracking senses like Kakashi's dogs, or just destroy the enviroment in which the enemy is hiding in, like Temari's summon which destroyed the forest. Surely most summons can do this, even Naruto's.
>>279788813Now I was thinking more to supernatural concealment, like Mu's.
>>279782610entire manga summed up.
>>279782936iconic.
>>279789279that's weirdly cute
>>279789279The actual best team ENTER
>>279787168They're old enough to be sent to war, so yeah they need to know jutsus, plus serious in-fighting is rare, Lee and Neji had a rivalry sure but never went at it in full rage. Choji never went at it against Shikamaru, same with Shino and Kiba.
>>279789365>same with Shino and Kibathey killed their own villagers in the exams
>>279789279I like how regardless of how small and chibi and low pixel they are you can still tell Akamaru is in Kiba's jacket
>>279789400yeah, and that was expected to happen in the exam, we're talking about unexpected things like in-fighting between teammates and arguments not to teach them kids jutsus
>>279789279>>279789439scenes like these make me remember they're all just kids (unlike saint seiya or some captain tsubasa)
>>279789545Damn, Kiba looks fat.
>>279789630Kishimoto draws a lot of his characters with some pudge on them. I don't think there's a single shredded person in Nardo
>>279789545Kiba CHONKizuka
>>279786270Tsunade and Kabuto being medical ninjas trivializes Sasuke's trauma because they can heal him. Kishimoto got to come up with the excuse that Leaf forces got cut in half by Orochimaru, leaving other adults like Iruka and Ebisu out because they can stop a runaway teen heading over to Orochimaru, or set up a safety net if he tries to leap the village border. Even I am not sure if Kabuto just works for the Leaf, Sound and Akatsuki for money while seethes in an apartment on his free time like a broke college student.
>>279789664>>279789630>>279789545Kishi wasn't lying when he said he likes them more SUBSTANTIAL
>>279785512I think it's more that everyone good enough just has at least one of those. Especially AoE is something you should learn by default.
>>279784076>>279785258My honest belief is that Sasuke matching Lee's unweighted speed, even briefly, gets soft retconned or otherwise swept under the rug, because it feels like only visually happens once (i.e. when he tries to use Chidori on Itachi he comes across as weirdly slower), no one else acknowledges it ever again, and when Lee himself gets out of the hospital fresh out of life-threatening surgery (and explicitly not as good as he was back in the Chunin Exams) he's still quick enough to make it to Naruto and Kimimaro and becomes considered a greater threat than FOXruto for some reason, so I swear that Kishi just jumbled around where exactly characters are relative to each other
>>279790485power levels are bullshit, anon
>>279790535I KNOW BUT INCONSISTENCY BOTHERS ME
So no since Iโm seeing that โspring ramenโ is now doing the Naruto story hour I assume that โdaily ramenโ isnโt able to continue?
>>279791022Same person.
Some fag created a trip a lot like his, so he had to change
>>279783708The anime added like hours of Sauce beating the shit out of Nardo, it's almost comedic.
>>279782695>gangs up on him immediately. shadow clones are the same reason i like the fights in jjk too. if you have the opportunity to 2v1 someone, do it.
>>279783310Yes, part 2 Sasuke is actually, most of the time, far more chill than this edgesuke
>>279790485Lee got randomly powerspiked against Kimimaro for a joke fight despite being stated to be weaker.
Just don't ask.
>>279791355for fuck's sake anon
when lee's drunk, his taijutsu ability increases exponentially as he's completely relaxed
i wish i could find the clip of him standing on a chair one-handed while neji's in the eight trigrams pose looking all fucking serious
>>279791724what's her problem? its just a kekkei genkai.
>>279791788why do you hate shino so much?
>>279789753>Dragon BallI fucking wish. Modern DB turned everyone from hulked up chads to malnourished giant heads.
>>279791724I said best, not BORING
>>279791622I was refering to him before the drink.
>>279791830>Flirting / Harassment
>>279789664>>279789969>Kishimoto draws a lot of his characters with some pudge on them.Is that really true? Clothes make them look slightly chunkier, but I think every male character other than Choji and the cloudnins have the same skinny build. And even then Choji can barely be qualified as "fat".
>>279785067>>279785393Before this storytime I would have said you were being silly but no, as we've seen again and again, people legit do not tell each other dick in this village.
>>279786167His summon quite literally transformed into Kurama to fight Shukaku, there's no way Sasuke saw this and went "hmp, I guess summons can now casually transform into the beast that nearly destroyed our village, who would have guessed it".
>>279792085Anon, none of the kids in Konoha know about the Kyuubi attack, just like how they know nothing about how an entire clan got massacred overnight.
>>279792085It used a transformation jutsu, an academy-level jutsu. Naruto could've transformed Gamabunta into anything. It doesn't mean anything.
>>279783729The clones aren't even looking up, they're clearly looking at the floor so he didn't have to draw a few dozen little squiggle faces
>>279783760>he whipped out the rasengan, which is a potentially deadly move, prompting sauce to whip out chidori.I do agree generally, but Sasuke just tried to set him on fire.
>>279792197Even so, you would think Nardo would think twice about using a deadly jutsu on someone he supposedly cares about.
why is everyone always excusing what sasuke does and ragging on naruto for less heinous shit?
>>279792385I don't know about the other anons, but Nardo generally seems to have a conscience and empathy, so on the occasions when he acts like a dick, it stands out more.
>>279791830That's just Toriyama's style before he died, now whoever ultimately is making the character designer choices will probably choose something closer to what the fans are used to.
>>279792285>>279792197Also, the rasengan, as of now, has done far more devastating damage than either fire ball and Chidori.
Naruto turned his brain off and if not for Kakashi Sasuke would've lost his arm right then and there.
>>279792801I don't even wanna know how buck broken Sasuke would've been if that scenario actually played out.
>>279783625I remember Sasuke entering total asshole mode much earlier, but he's been reasonable up until now.

>>279785499just post an owl back at him

>>279783463>You're making me angry, Naruto!This line so sounds so basic and awkward.
>>279782520>nardo wanker in charge of readingHe has all the reasons in the world to be this way
>>279783310>But does every single interaction, every training session, every moment of screen time have to revolve around this singular, suffocating goal?Have you ever met traumatized 8 year olds ever in your life? Shonentards in charge of psychology lol
>>279784877This whole arc would have been avoided if Jiraiya had given Naruto a cliffnotes version of why he got so bent out of shape about Itachi because that shit unironically flew over Naruto's head.
>>279795282It's not even a secret, is it? Why the fuck did no one fill Naruto in
>>279795354Same reason neither of them sit down the team together to talk about all the shit that's been left unspoken and clear the air. Ninja being dogshit at talking is baked into the setting even before the spinoff books had Sakura and Ino invent basic mental health care.
>>279795402>Ninja being dogshit at talkingKakashi's upcoming pep talk to Sasuke is the worst offender.
Maybe that's why Naruto really was their savior, because he is the only one who knows how to talk
>>279782695>>279782781>>279782815>>279782850Probably not a god idea to teach children such lethal techniques.
>>279782936Thabks OP!
>>279783760Yep, these are some very believable flaws in kids their age, which they learn from and grow out of.
>>279783708>>279791176yeah pretty sure there were a bunch of bed sheets hanging out to dry on top of the hospital which were also part of the fight
>>279786473>DeletedWtf jannies
>>279795402So talk no jutsu is really just basic conversation skills.
>>279792801The Chidori has actually killed a person as of this point, so Iโm not sure
>>279796402Yeah, despite how much its firepower was wanked, the rasengan doesn't kill anybody.
>>279796455It kills someone in part 2 no?
>>279796489Oodama Rasengan does
>>279789279Are they about to run a mini train on her?
>>279785151>Nah, Sasuke has noted Naruto's growth since the forest of death. He's just upset at how fast he's improving compared to himselfThere's also the unspoken part where his benchmark for where he should be at age 13 is Itachi, our Lord and Saviour. And instead he's getting caught up to by the class idiot.
>>279789753My ducking sides. Thank you
>>279796489Kakuzu? Can't remember shit anymore
>>279782815>Make Naruto use mass clone jutsu for Sasuke to use Katon to have a cool fire whirlwind visual effect when Naruto used Rasengan. Kishimoto doesn't get enough credit for his fight directing skills. One of the very best.
>>279796990Go to gooner jail
>>279782936It was at this moment when I knew - Sakura is never going to be a relevant.
>>279786066>then abandoned snakeman for the AkatsukiHe abandoned Orochimaru for being a massive cunt, that was why there was a whole thing of Orochimaru being the other exception to Sasuke not killing anyone before his breakdown during the summit arc.
>>279796990This is Naruto not IT.
>>279786066>Sasuke had a three man team for support, abandoned them for Orochimaru, then abandoned snakeman for the Akatsuki, betraying those for the Leaf. If he was written as ambitious it wouldn't be a problem but he needs his brother to tell him to avenge him making me wonder why he didn't go the Gungrave route.Why does it have to only be ambition for him to do that? The switches he made were all done after some big reveals. It wasn't like he woke up one day and changed his mind. You guys talk about the series in bullet points then cry foul when it doesn't make sense
>>279782531>sounds like jobber words
>>279789279The village elders: yeah send em to war, they're old enough
Is Naruto gaiden the biggest humiliation ritual of any character? There are tumblr and facebook groups still fighting over whether Sarada is Sakura's or Karin's daughter
>>279794737>>279794797>Sasukefag starts seething and crying because people are shitting on the emo fag character that he idolizesLmao
>>279798287>shartrutocuck can't read for shit and whines when others are not illiterate like himKys
>>279795282Would Naruto even know how handle interacting with Sasuke if he knew more about Itachi? Would he just avoid seeing Sasuke for a while because he knows he'd trigger his inferiority complex?
>>279798287>nardo self inserters still malding that the deuteragonist wasn't the cuck mc's bitchLol. It's been 10 years
>>279797242>Orochimaru being the other exception to Sasuke not killing anyone...alongside Naruto and Sakura.
>>279798287Haven't you already been whipped half a dozen times, narucuck? You're the same faggot who was whining about nagato's redemption being well written. Are you still assblasted from that thread? Lol it's pathetic
>sasukefag starts malding hard
kek
>>279798376No. Him bluffing makes zero actual sense here unless you just want to retcon the entire scene.
>shartruto self inserter still seething over an ass whooping from 3 weeks ago
Kek
>>279798386No it doesn't. He needs to push them away if he has to focus on his goal, which is the entire motivation behind him leaving the village and "severing bonds". Plus he knows that nothing besides the threat of death will deter Naruto from chasing after him. If you believe he is serious here then you are already retconning what comes after. Sasuke afterwards abstains from killing anyone besides Itachi, orochimaru or akatsuki. Him acting cold and aloof here lines up with his attitude later on.

>>279798438He tried to fucking kill them. He had to be stopped by Orochimaru and Kabuto needed to explain why they should be kept alive for the Akatsuki to get him to stop fighting. Orochimaru of all people should've known that he was bluffing about killing his old comrades, but he still felt the need to stop him from using that pseudo-Kirin move on them.
>If you believe he is serious here then you are already retconning what comes afterIt's the other way around. It's impossible to justify that he was bluffing here unless you're just inserting your headcanon or you retcon Sasuke's entire character for this arc.
Cope as hard as you want, you're still wrong.
>>279798345Kishimoto has admitted that at multiple points he had no idea what the fuck Sasuke was gonna do next (this and post-Itachi reveal) and it shows.
>>279798506>Orochimaru of all people should've known that he was bluffing about killing his old comrades, but he still felt the need to stop him from using that pseudo-Kirin move on them.The fact that Oro thought that kirin could even be performed under bright sunny skies is evidence that he can't be trusted with what Sasuke really wanted to do here, nor with Sasuke's intent to kill. Just pay attention, man.
If Sasuke really wanted to kill them he would have way before oro arrived. He had 4 free shots to do it but he was more interested in judging their defensive stance.
I am not inserting my headcanon. I am trying to align tenchi bridge with what we saw of Sasuke later and there are gaps that you can't cry retcon over just by arguing passionately.
>>279798542The only time it showed was with the Itachi reveal and there the level of writing is visibly below the story around it. The others? Not so much. At least not any more than a regular weekly shonen mangaka is aware of what he is going to do with a character 50 chapters from now.
>>279798682>I am not inserting my headcanon. I am trying to align tenchi bridge with what we saw of Sasuke later and there are gaps that you can't cry retcon over just by arguing passionately.that is literally what headcanon is
>>279798718It's called making inferences with what is available. Sorry you are not capable of that
>>279798171She's clearly Sakura's at this point.
>>279782390 (OP)Pre-Raikage Naruto was so boring.
>>279798682>The only time it showed was with the Itachi reveal and there the level of writing is visibly below the story around it. The others? Not so much. At least not any more than a regular weekly shonen mangaka is aware of what he is going to do with a character 50 chapters from now.No I mean he admitted in an interview that he wasn't sure about whether Sasuke would double down on revenge or go to protect Konoha like Itachi wanted after the reveal. I remember it because Tobi got a line with a similar idea but I just can't find the interview.
>>279797331What the fuck does he want!? Sasuke worked better as a psycho because he had to be calmed.
>>279797242Orochimaru was never dead. He hid inside Sasuke and came out to fight Itachi. Then its revealed those curse marks can revive him because Sasuke can't perform Impure Resurrection cause he wasted time with Kirin the jobber move. I am convinced Orochimaru got sidelined caught would trivialize the fight against Madara and Kaguya.
>>279799351>Orochimaru was never dead.Not for lack of trying on Sasuke's part.
>>279782870I have so much trouble finding this gif thank you /a/non
>>279796402That was the raikiri performed by Kakashi, Sasuke's hasn't done that yet.
>>279794737True but running away to faustian bargain himself with jake the snake was objectively retarded
>>279785103NTA but also who would want to be shown up by naruto of all people in this genin generation?
>>279782781>what the fuck do you mean sasuke burned down a hospital >>279795673old enough to child soldier, old enough to learn assassination techniques
>>279794173She already has "punch hard as fuck" technique. Just make her better at taijutsu and actually give her fights. That and maybe she can ape some of kabuto's hand knife moves. Just make her incredibly fast and strong because she has chakra in her hands and feet.

>>279799634Kakashi told Sasuke he's too chicken to kill a man. He can't shut off his emotions the same way the other joins can to have murder and women before breakfast. The Second Hokage said the Uchihas are too emotional to be ninjas. He needs Guy to teach him to be a ninja
>>279800423weird new meme
>>279798682>The fact that Oro thought that kirin could even be performed under bright sunny skies is evidence that he can't be trusted with what Sasuke really wanted to do here, nor with Sasuke's intent to kill.Sasuke had no reason to raise his arms like that if he didn't want to use Kirin. And if Kirin wasn't supposed to work there, him doing that would've accomplished nothing, and it would've also made 0 sense as a bluff, considering how no one from Naruto's team even knew what Kirin is. Furthermore, if Sasuke really was pretending, he wouldn't have protested so much against Oro and Kabuto wanting him to back off. And there's also that scene of him telling Oro that he won't kill anyone other than Itachi, so Oro knows what Sasuke's killing intent is
>He had 4 free shots to do it but he was more interested in judging their defensive stance.He didn't have any free shots, lmao. You're deluded.
>>279800802>Furthermore, if Sasuke really was pretending, he wouldn't have protested so much against Oro and Kabuto wanting him to back off. And there's also that scene of him telling Oro that he won't kill anyone other than Itachi, so Oro knows what Sasuke's killing intent isWhat a leap of logic lol. He wasn't going to just say that he isn't going for the kill right in front of them.
He wanted naruto to think that he doesn't care and he will kill them if they get in his way. Them not knowing what kirin was works in his favor. Besides, He could be using some other jutsu entirely. But the fact that he never used such a killer jutsu against Itachi suggests that this jutsu, if it really isn't kirin, wasn't meant to kill them. The only other argument can be for kirin which he cannot even use under sunny skies. Whichever way you want to see it, this being a bluff is perfectly reasonable with what Sasuke says later.
>he didn't have any free shotsRead properly. He could have killed all of them multiple times if he really went out against them. Naruto didn't even bother defending. Not because he was shocked at seeing Sasuke or allured by his scent or some other gay shit. Sasuke had literally stabbed him through the lungs, accidentally broken his neck, tried incinerating him, to no effect each time in their previous fight. They both know that a fucking sword stab is not going to kill a tough cookie like naruto.
He could have insta killed Yamato but he stabbed him in the shoulder then stood around like there was nothing to do. Hell he even went for apparently-kirin because they annoyed him too much.
>>279800210Orochimaru is the strongest ninja shown in the series after the 3rd hokage until that point. He is literally his only bet. Who else can he pursue? Kakashi is busy being an asshole pontificator, jiraiya won't help with his revenge and he obviously can't go to the akatsuki.
>>279799785Day of the ferret coming real soon tayuyabro
>>279801250>Them not knowing what kirin was works in his favor.It doesn't. That's the equivalent of Naruto pretending to want to kill Sasuke by using a rasengan against him, but he purposefully fails to use it properly like when he was training to master it. Sasuke would immediately catch on that he wasn't actually trying to kill him.
>Besides, He could be using some other jutsu entirely. But the fact that he never used such a killer jutsu against Itachi suggests that this jutsu, if it really isn't kirin, wasn't meant to kill them.>They both know that a fucking sword stab is not going to kill a tough cookie like naruto.That's literally pure headcanon, lmao. Plus Orochimaru referred to it as "that jutsu" and it was clearly meant to be something big that got revealed later on. Also, Sasuke tried to stab Naruto but got stopped by Sai. He then tried to kill Sakura but got stopped by Yamato, and he clearly didn't have a clear shot at Yamato, who got in the way of him trying to stab Sakura. Saying "b-but he clearly didn't try to kill them by stabbing them" is disingenuous as fuck.
You can't justify Sasuke not having killing intent here without forcing your headcanon or retconning the scene completely.
>>279798364NTA but it is. Nagato is perfectly fine.
>>279800461The manga does a good job of showing how Sasuke is too temperamental and makes decisions that gets his beaten by veterans like Itachi, Zabuza, Gaara, Orochimaru, and even Danzo. He just changes from using the Fireball to bull charging with Chidori. He abandoned to those for Susanoo, Amaterasu. His MO is he has the bigger stick.
>>279798392You sound autistic man, why do you take this gay comic for kids that seriously and assume people are the same as you? You're like, 30
>>279798682>The fact that Oro thought that kirin could even be performed under bright sunny skies is evidence that he can't be trusted with what Sasuke really wanted to do here, nor with Sasuke's intent to kill. Just pay attention, man.Kishimoto didn't know himself lmao. Stop pretending this is all on purpose. Kishimoto just fucked up with characterization and wanted something edgy and threatening only to walk back on it later

>>279801441It's so unfair
1.Tayuya's chakra was already considerably drained from her intense battle, 2. Temari's jutsu is a hard counter for her and a lucky hit broke her flute, 3. Tayuya didn't get a chance to summon her 3 giant boy toys which possibly actually could beat Temari. I estimate Tayuya was at about 30% strength left when a fully fresh 100% Temari shows up. I suppose Tayuya's biggest mistake was simply not fleeing
>>279802117>>279802543>nardo self inserters pretending to take the high groundLol. You're not like me, you are worse
>>279802746You don't realize how insane you sound to the average person, even the average hyperfixated anon. SELF AWARENESS, please
>>279802018You're not even reading what i have written. Even ignored Naruto not bothering to dodge. What was Sasuke's response to Sai blocking his stab again? Does it sound like someone trying to kill would stand around and say?
>He then tried to kill Sakura but got stopped by Yamato, and he clearly didn't have a clear shot at Yamato, who got in the way of him trying to stab Sakura. Saying "b-but he clearly didn't try to kill them by stabbing them" is disingenuous as fuck.It's like you have no ability to make an inference. He had a clear shot at yamato, we are literally shown the chidori blade being so sharp that it cut through kunai like paper. Unless you think yamato was moving at mach 10 or some shit, this Sasuke with the sharingan would have zero trouble stabbing him in the heart. Then after stabbing he takes his sweet time standing around even before he genjutsu'd naruto. Keep crying headcanon while failing to read what's presented unambiguously. I can't waste my time over someone so boneheaded.

>>279802565He might not have thought of kirin yet but him leaving this open when we have seen him walk back multiple times to tie in shit for a retcon just proves my point. It doesn't matter what he wanted to do in that moment. You can draw straight lines from this moment and the later characterzation of Sasuke without needing retcons like you need with post truth itachi. That is unless you have absolutely made up your mind to not listen to anything unless the source material explicitly shoves it down your throat.
>>279802919Basically yes you can pretend this was a bluff, but if you know Kishimoto and think realistically you know it was just Kishimoto not knowing where he was going. Two different levels of interpretation I guess?
>>279802762You won't know shit about an average person, shartruto cuck. You spend half the time on internet reading nardo hentai and self inserting as him. While also peddling your fanfiction tier understanding of fiction.
>>279802934Would your parents be okay with what you have become?
>>279802932I have no interest in speculating what kishimoto was thinking at the moment. I don't think there was a moment in the manga when he knew what was going to happen 50 chapters ahead. This is how weekly manga works. You're not reading some hyperplanned story. A good weekly writer knows how to consolidate the info he has previously presented. In that sense and within the story, the bluff interpretation doesn't present any major obstacles in believing it.
>>279802991The issue is just that it clearly FEELS like an afterthought. I'm not saying the way you see it is wrong, but it's a bit clunky.
>>279802991>I have no interest in speculating what kishimoto was thinking at the moment.Yeah, because you're just basing shit on your own retarded headcanon but refuse to admit it.
>>279802953Would yours? Oh wait you don't even know them
>>279803066Please anon get a grip
>>279803019You can't address any points i have made. You just cry and copy paste shit you have written half a dozen times. Try convincing yourself before you try to convince me.
>>279803009No it doesn't. Sasuke here isn't presented as some murderous psychopath straight out of five kage summit. The only difference between this Sasuke and later version is that he is staying his hand a bit less and acting more aloof. But it's subjective. Maybe you had that impression. I didn't.
>>279803095Stop malding then, self inserter
>>279782610You don't need to dump Shippuden, this page's a quick summary.
>>279802854>Naruto not bothering to dodge.Because he is just stupid? Or he was phased by how fast Sasuke moved in front of him? This isn't the first time in this series where a person didn't react before someone tried to kill them.
>What was Sasuke's response to Sai blocking his stab again? Does it sound like someone trying to kill would stand around and say?None of what he says indicates that he wasn't fighting with killing intent. He was toying with them and complimenting how good they were at dodging. It's not uncommon for villains to do that.
>He had a clear shot at yamato, we are literally shown the chidori blade being so sharp that it cut through kunai like paper.Kek, you are so retarded. That doesn't mean that he had enough time to precisely stab to kill him. A sick bedridden Orochimaru was also able to block Sasuke's lightning blade when he tried to kill him. It's clearly not meant to be an impossible feat.
>Then after stabbing he takes his sweet time standing around even before he genjutsu'd naruto.That's not shown at all. He needs to focus on Naruto to stop him from powering up, during which Yamato breaks free from his sword.
>>279803136>You can't address any points i have madeLiterally all of your points have been countered with arguments, while all you've got is headcanon cope. Your Yamato argument is probably the most retarded. There's nothing that indicates Sasuke could've killed him when he jumped in between him and Sakura.
>>279803009>I'm not saying the way you see it is wrong,Nah, it totally is, lmao. This is some premium cope.
>>279803515Okay. Go cry in a corner now and stop bothering me. You're too retarded for me to whip into understanding
>>279798374I still don't get the "Sasukefag" thing when it's clear that despite supposedly obsessing over this series for 20+ years he's a complete brick wall to actually engage with and just jerks his thumbtack to banal power fantasies
>>279803515>A sick bedridden Orochimaru was also able to block Sasuke's lightning blade when he tried to kill him.Sasuke never meant to kill orochimaru with the lightning blade. That's the whole point he gave a whole chapter long speech afterwards. With reading comprehension like yours it's no wonder you're having a spergout

Instead of seething indirectly why not pick up psychology 101?

>>279798345You know, this got me thinking: Shippuden really just repeats part 1 with the Sasuke/Naruto dynamic.
>Oh, look at me Naruto, I'm so much stronger then you>Naruto gets on the grind again>Ends up ignoring Sasuke for an arc or two for shit that actually matters, like helping Shikimaru or avenging his master's death>Learns wind-infused, atomic chainsaw rasengan>Learns Sage-Mode>Achieves goals>Meanwhile Sasuke is crying like a bitch because Itachi was a good guy all along! Naruto really should've ended right after the Pain arc. Just imagine being Sasuke and going up against sage-mode Naruto without rennigan hacks.
>>279805457Yeah, just asspull a final fight between MS Sasuke and Sage Naruto like in Storm 2, find some nice theme around it and you're gold. I guess making Sasuke the underdog in the final fight would have been anticlimactic but Kishimoto could find a way to make them more equal like he managed to give Sasuke 9 Bijuus in the OG ending
>>279805013Maybe because Sasuke kept it slow enough for him to react? That's the whole point behind the monologue. God you're dense
>>279805457MS Sasuke was stronger than sage Naruto and a nardo wanker threw a hossy fit over it last time and got proven wrong so don't even try that.
>>279805457Sasuke should've gone back to konoha after Itachi died.
Nothing that was brought up against Konoha from the twist was genuinely fixed in the grand scheme of things.
>>279805910When was this?
>>279805605>>279805913>Sasuke should've gone back to konoha after Itachi died.I don't think you'd have to asspull it. Sasuke having a massive amount of unresolved anger that he can't direct at Itachi any longer after he sacrificed everything for that purpose would be enough to drive him crazy.
>making Sasuke the underdog in the final fight would have been anticlimacticIt'd actually be pretty rad when you think about it. Shift the stories perspective to Sasuke as he plans out how he's going to beat an opponent who's got way more chakra and now has bridged the technique gap with Sage Mode.
Naruto's goal isn't to kill Sasuke after all, but to save him from himself, so Sasuke, knowing that, he could attack him psychologically with Genjutsu. It'd be a nice way to recap the events of the series as well and showing how Naruto has overcome his past mistakes, like Ignoring Sasuke's feelings of inferiority.
>>279805910Why though? Sage-mode Naruto won against pain and the Rennigan >> MS.

>>279805978You're right but that autist is going on another autistic powerlevels ramble now that you gave him a (You)
Why do you waste all this time, powerlevel are exactly what Kishimoto feels like at the moment, an hypotetical final fight between the two of them will always be close.
>>279805952>can't use anything beside amaterasu>"probably"More proof that nardo wankers are as smart as their insert lol
>>279805978>Naruto's goal isn't to kill Sasuke after all, but to save him from himself, so Sasuke, knowing that, he could attack him psychologically with GenjutsuActually that would make a great final fight. Pain was all brawl, but a psychological final battle with Sasuke to show how Naruto would be able to show his newfound resolve and tackle the issue of hate could be great.
Also now they know and share similar pains, it has potential.
>>279806018That's also true, in the end even these statements are only worth whatever Kishimoto feels like at the moment. I feel like this was Kishimoto apologizing for Naruto doing nothing for 15 volumes.
>>279805978Sage naruto had ton of help and still was about to die if not for the 9 tails. It gets memoryholed because most of this fanbase is just autistic self inerters. Pain is slso much weaker than Nagato who had the actual rinnegan. This is the faggot who got whipped for being retarded and not being able to follow logic
>>279806006The thread is posted itt
>the autist is at it again
This is why anonymous posting is a mistake, in any other context you would rightfully be laughed out of the room.
I get it, I must ignore every post who uses "self inserters", like most buzzwords.
>>279806059I think it was more to give a wake up call to Sasuke, who once again feels he's being left behind by his rival.
>Shartruto cuck already seething
We get it you hate sasuke but not everbody is here to suck your self insert's cock like you. Especially when blatantly false shit without co text keeps getting posted. If you aren't the manchild you are delusional enough to think you're not then fuck off
>>279806138Yeah it could also be for that, it's hard to tell what Kishimoto is thinking honestly. But I really appreciate Sasuke's reaction, even in one of his edgiest arcs he seems to have matured in a lot of ways and focuses only on his objective.
>>279806109Lol. You literally got whipped the last time for not being able to follow a children's manga. You're the clown lol
>i will ignore everything that doesn't glaze my self insert and calls out self insertion. No matter the argument
Wow, is this the safe space for narutofags? Can i join?
>>279806032It actually reminds me of pic related now that I think about it.
>>279806006>autistic powerlevels rambleThis series EXISTS for such a thing!
>>279806074Nagato WAS Pain though, maybe the fight's a little muddy because nine path's is the most busted thing pre-ninja war(and should've been the power ceiling to be honest) and it takes the entire village to stand a chance against it, but still, past that, Naruto has accumulated all the XP of using Sage Mode in combat against the strongest ninja who's ever lived.
Regardless, this says nothing about MS versus Sage Mode.
>Naruto got cuck-AAAAIIIEEEEEEE
>NARUTO-SAMA PLEASE DON'T KILL MY DAAAAAD
Raikagebros....
>>279806248>This series EXISTS for such a thing!To an extent, sure. The /dbs/ tier poster is too far gone.
Also you have to consider that our autistic rambles might be funny or sometimes interesting to speculate on but that Kishimoto gave it infinitely less thought than us, which basically guarantees it's all meaningless and the joke is on us for debating a kids' comic book to this extent. Still, as long as we acknowledge that we're less retarded than the /dbs/ poster.
>>279805881He has no reason to do that when he was able to paralyze Yamato by stabbing him without needing him to block the sword. It would also be retarded for him to purposefully take his time killing him like that when Kabuto was a few rooms away.
Do you seriously not realise how much of a coping moron you're being right now? Lmao.
>>279805952What's up with Sasuke's anatomy in the middle panel? Just a weird perspective?
>>279806248Pain was massively gimped by having just one ability per path. You can see it when Nagato takes on Bee and KCM Naruto. Having all the abilities in one person is a big advantage with the Rinnegan. 3 of the paths had literally no defense and once they were gone, no tactile or revival jutsus could be used. Effectively only tendo and bansho were a threat and bansho has zero offense. Not to forget tendo was on recharge for most of the fight with sage naruto (fight is super short and only lasts 4 chapters in the manga, before kyuubi transformation). It was basically just tendo pain vs konoha. Tendo was also drained after chou shinra tensei. Basically sage naruto vs pain isn't nearly as straightforward as fans remember. Naruto had every advantage he could ask for and still eventually lost. Not that pain is weak, but weaker than Nagato.
>>279806377>Fujosuke>weird perspective (them fingers lmao)>visual symbolism to show how unnatural it is for Sasuke to accept he's weakerpick one
>>279806297>waste a whole thread autistically arguing for your self insert>lose based on actual feats>"wahh he is just autistic and not cool like us. Also kishimoto retcons so we should only believe what we want to and everyone is an idiot for powerlevelfagging from THIS POINT ON now that i have quit doing it"You're retarded and an embarrassment. Even me just mentioning ms Sasuke being stronger than your self insert is already causing internal seethe in you which is noticeable. Don't try to moralfag, retard.
>>279806391Why did Pain split off the powers into different bodies?
>>279806391Having all abilities in one person makes that person stronger but having 6 persons also gives you tons of advantages
>shared vision without needing summons (which can get dispatched by kunai anyway lmao)>no revivalPain wouldn't have fallen for Itachi's Totsuka.
>Effectively only tendo and bansho were a threat and bansho has zero offenseEvery Pain is a village ending threat anon (except when Konohamaru plot shields his way into getting one)
Still, you have the big summon spam one (can solo villages alone), the weapons one (can decapitate you in various ways and would have killed Tsunade), the one that kills you by touching you and the rest have different variations of stabbing you to death. The real challenge is handling that while getting past the guy that nullifies ninjutsu.
Not that you're wrong when you say Naruto had all cards stacked in his favor, but you're vastly underestimating how hard the Pain gauntlet is. Almost no one can take it, Itachi wouldn't. Actually Susano Sasuke might have a chance to get somewhat far if he can spam Susano for a long time.
Tldr: Pain is fucking busted, Naruto didn't beat him fair but what he did is already enough to put him about basically any Kage level except Oonoki
>>279806252>A>Cool as fuck design>Another image of what a hokage-like figure should be: Stoic, strong, decisive enough to lop off his own arm if he needs to>Had a great rivalry with the fourth hokage>Genuinely cared about his brother to the point of being over-protective>Slapped the shit out of Sasuke when everyone else was humming and hawwing about it>People can only think about him as a bull because he's muscular and his skin is brownIt's not fair, A is the kind of guy to get married to a good, meek woman and treat her embarrassingly well in a "Oh, look at Pompey, he loves his wife, what a loon!" kind of way.
>>279806391>Naruto had every advantage he could ask for and still eventually lost.I mean, he won though right? Pain admitted defeat, so Naruto was stronger.
ACK!

>>279806316>headcanon the postNo anon, you're the retarded one who is inventing 100s of copes because you want something to pettily criticize because being bitter is all you know. The chidori blade was to make a statement. If oro didn't block he'd be dead, no paralysis shit. It's like i am trying to teach shonen tropes to a retard who is seeing them for the 1st time.
>>279806538He won the same way Sasuke won against bee. Minato showing up was an asspull let's be real
>>279806538I despise him for the story conveniently forgetting him trying to kidnap Hinata and causing Neji's father death.
>>279806491Probably mandatory after Hanzo fucked up his legs
>>279806538>I mean, he won though right? Pain admitted defeat, so Naruto was stronger.Yes, he won after using that Kyuubi moment to bail him out, so if you count that advantage you have to admit he did win. Especially since Kyuubi basically achieved nothing other than free Naruto, weakening the Deva Path didn't change anything, he got tricked all the same.
Sasuke is that strong and yet he can't firce himself to kiss Sakura?
>>279806491Because nagato had gedo mazo rods permanently lodged into him
>>279806537I am not underrating pain. Besides Obito he was the strongest in the series until madara is revived, but he was weaker than a fit nagato and there are a lot of asteriks that led to his defeat.
>>279806633Sasuke actually got two saves against Bee and still didn't beat him since Bee ended up just hiding to fool Sasuke rather than because he lost
>>279806678>Besides ObitoI wonder.
Obito really varies depending on Kishimoto's mood. Danzo's two bodyguards ended up injuring him. But skip a bit later and Obito is this world ending threat that can manhandle Naruto, Bee, Kakashi and Guy.
Danzo should have won.
>>279806696Bee would have died if Sasuke didn't cut off the tentacle to save karin, which allowed him to hide in a non-burning part of 8 tails' body.
That's not the point anyway. It's not a 1 to 1 comparison, but Naruto had minato save him from dying too. As a full tailed beast transformation kills the host (retcon timeline).
>>279806574>right now>Sasuke only knows amaterasuLEARN. TO. READ.
>>279806750>Naruto had minato save him from dying too. As a full tailed beast transformation kills the host (retcon timeline).Would you count the rampaging Kyubi as a different entity? In that case yeah it would be a loss, sure. Weird situation.
>Bee would have died if Sasuke didn't cut off the tentacle to save karin, which allowed him to hide in a non-burning part of 8 tails' body.He did, but that should be a regular part of the fight. Just like Bee had no reason to fuck around and let everyone heal Sasuke and go 8 tails after manhandling everyone (which opened him up for an Amaterasu oneshot anyway), Sasuke fucked up by cutting off the tentacle.
>>279806652Having all your chakra refilled sure is a massive help especially when your opponent is bleeding out from his nose trying to contain the kyuubi. Double standard
>is that.... generic wind jutsu? AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH SAVE ME ITACHI
>>279806839He just reactivated sage mode anon. If his clones didn't disappear during the Kyubi rampage he could have just summoned the last one and gotten another refill all the same. One sage mode gets him about 2 FRS.
Not that this matters much because the way Kishimoto wrote the climax didn't make much sense, Naruto should have played it safe instead of gambling everything instantly. Pretty cool ending though.
>>279806830Yes, at this point in the story, kyuubi is a separate entity from Naruto.
Here's what people don't notice. Even kyuubi lost to Pain. 8 tails barely got out of chibaku tensei and Nagato was talking how he could make it even bigger to fully seal the 9 tails. Naruto reverting back stopped him from following through. When Naruto gets to Nagato, he still has enough chakra to revive thousands of people. And remember pain fought the whole fight not trying to kill naruto because they needed 9 tails for extraction. He was a monster and is grossly underrated because of selective viewing of his fight with Naruto. Naruto actually didn't do any better than Sasuke did with killer bee or the gokage. They were both outmatched with some serious firepower to cause collateral damage, it's just that the story presents them completely differently owing to their different character arcs (and Indra/Ashura parallels)
These punches would have vaporized Rock Lee, by the way.
>>279806909I mean you can't go sage mode with low chakra to begin with. It's against the whole concept of it.
>>279806981>Even kyuubi lost to PainYou're absolutely right that going back to normal to escape Chibaku (don't ask me how that works because it didn't seem to work like that when they fought Nagato) was the actual real fuck you to Pain, but I doubt Pain would have been able to contain a fully rampaging 9 tails
>And remember pain fought the whole fight not trying to kill naruto because they needed 9 tails for extractionHe could have confirmed the kill (or captured Naruto) after stabbing him before Hinata got there, but he got slowed down by hubris and trauma. Still less embarrassing than the Bee situation imo.
>>279807021He still had enough for that, he made three clones for sage mode refills and would have used the third if it was still around. In fact he would have kept more clone batteries if he could but 3 was the limit.
Pic related, just fine to go back at it with enough nature energy. Again, don't think too much about how that works, it just does.
>>279806909Wait are you saying naruto couldve bested pain had he have another sm after pain speech? Are you nuts 6 tails is on another planet compared to sage mode
>>279807134>Wait are you saying naruto couldve bested pain had he have another sm after pain speechYes, that's basically exactly what he did.
Deva Path needed to be saved by ninjutsu absorbing dude way before that.
>>279805952Vs Killer Bee Sasuke < Sage Naruto =< 5KS Sasuke.
>>279807055A fully powered Pain would have. A massively drained pain still had enough to fully capture 8 tailed version after all.
Pain had already fought all of konoha. Nuked the whole village so bad that he needed time to use his abilities again, fought and beat sage naruto and then dealt with kyuubi too. And still had enough for naraka path. If full 9 tails won it was only because of the pre-fight advantage it had.
>>279807184Here's your (You) anon, don't spend it all in one place
>>279807060I believe you could have waited for next thread, we are in the middle of an autism-fueled discussion wich might surpass bump limit (and honestly should go on the regular Naruto thread and not in the daily).
>>279807200>fought and beat sage narutoHe beat base Naruto actually. You could argue taking advantage of these gaps is part of the fight but the only time Deva Path pulls one over sage Naruto is the Bansho Tenin, he gets manhandled every other time.
>If full 9 tails won it was only because of the pre-fight advantage it hadYeah, full batteries Pain might have enough to contain the strongest bijuu. Basically a god. Still a bit stupid that the evolved Sharingan needs to pull a fucking moon for that instead of just genjutsu
>>279807055Pain jobbed to a base rasengan after chibaku tensei, there's no way he'd handle Kurama.
>>279807130Tbh no amount of sage mode refills and frog summons would do anything against chibaku tensei. Pain only used it because of kyuubi and 6+ tailed kyuubi was >>> sage mode naruto and friends. Having kyuubi show up was actually better for naruto's chances
>>279807249I'll just dip out and discuss the actual daily instead of the shartyposter's powerfantasy wank
>>279807222>gold and silver color schemeWhat did they mean by this?
>>279807222>>279807279Naruto's bitchsengan got SHOWN UP by the CHADori
>capcha: GAY80
>>279807176Disingenuous. Deva path was on recharge at this point. When his powers came back he essily deflected rasenshuriken
>>279807292Depends on what you think about Chibaku Tensei. Do you need two bijuu bombs and Susano Magatama to break it? Does it capture you no matter what even if you're human sized, even though Naruto escaped it by turning off Kyuubi? Is it impossible to interrupt it by just attacking you while you cast it? If you answer yes to all three questions then Chibaku Tensei defeats literally everyone except Madara, Minato and Tobirama (and maybe one or two flying guys). I don't think it works like that.
>>279807317What's his deal? If he actually killed Naruto here and now, what exactly would that prove or accomplish?
>>279807358That was a gay little jump he did over that fence
>>279807348If Deva Path still had his power he would have deflected the Rasenshuriken and been open to a second one or any Rasengan (or even a punch) in the meantime.
My point is that if a single sage mode kick was enough to force Pain to use a Shinra Tensei to get out of jail, then Naruto had a few possibilities and mixups available to get him and Kyuubi wouldn't have mattered anyway. In fact, the setup Naruto used here was more efficient than the one he used after Kyuubi, if you ask me Deva Path performed really well at the end.
>>279807411OHNONONONO SASUKEKS!
>>279807411And he never recovered from this.
>>279807358>>279807411How would the manga have changed if these drops didn't fall on Sauce's head? Imagine if he just jumped another way.
>>279807479Rasengan is notorious for NOT killing people, even a triple to Obito's face did jackshit
>>279807176That's just for dramatic purposes unless you want to admit that sm rasenshuriken is that slow. I know it's hard to gauge how strong this was but putting it on the same level as sm rasenshuriken is a bit insane. It could be interpreted that focusing on 1 path makes tendo pain stronger than when there were six of them, it certainly seems to be the case when he had to turn off the other bodies to use a massive shinra tensei
>>279807259Because tendo doesn't do taijutsu. And we have different definition of manhandling. Eating a blocked kick is far from manhandling. You're also ignoring the frog summons' help. If tendo was bloodlusted he would swat naruto with the big ST that broke every bone in 80 ft frog summons' bodies and rocketed them 100 ft off from him.
>>279807411Sasukebros..... At least tell me we can take sage Naruto with our Susano....... I need it......
>>279807412That was an excellent High Jump. No wonder he was the class heart-throb.w8svs
>>279807280Most people in naruto are glass canon. That's why chidori remained relevant all the way to the end
>>279807411He just learned a technique, why don't you copy it through your sharingan?
>>279807499>Rasengan is notorious for NOT killing people, even a triple to Obito's face did jackshitThat's when the powercreep went through a million hoops. Kabuto needed continuous healing to even stand up after Naruto's barely perfected Rasengan AND he still had more damage than he could heal.
>>279807456A punch from naruto would have turned that wall to rubble btw
>>279807184Senin modou Naruto = V2 Raikage > 5KS Sasuke
>>279807644>It'll be like it was beforeHahahahahaha
>>279807429Pain can dodge too, besides ST. He leaps up 50 ft to dodge gamabunta's sword strike. And Rasenshuriken is hardly the fastest jutsu. If it was naruto wouldn't have to use shadow rasenshurikens to land it.
I think if i was arguing for Sasuke the way you are for sage naruto against Pain, i would have already been called sasuketard, fag or whatever ad hominems by 3 posters already. You are extremely generous towards sage naruto to keep it straightforward.
>>279807411>Sasuke would've lost his arm had they actually clashLmao
>>279807531>tendo doesn't do taijutsuHe does
He's great at it actually, that's like his main attack if you count Shinra Tensei as defense (even though it's also an attack, it's almost always used for defense)
Truth about it is... it works exactly like Kishimoto needs it to.
>Need to dispatch Choza and other jonins? Need to dispatch the 3 Kaiju summons? Shinra Tensei is an attack>Need to dispatch Naruto (base or sage)? Shinra Tensei is just defense and pushes you away without really hurting you, base Naruto can tank it just fine>we have different definition of manhandlingSaid blocked kick put Deva Path in a position where he needed to be saved
Second kick did that, and he doesn't seem to be doing that well
Either base Naruto got a stupid taijutsu boost or it's inconsistent as always
>>279807526It's as slow and as fast as you need it to. At least it seems consistent enough that you can't throw it without a bit of a setup beforehand (expanding it or knocking down your opponent)
>>279807360Itachi knew how to break the core. Naruto had no idea against nagato and he sure as hell won't have any against pain. Naruto escaped it because kyuubi had made enough of a hole for Naruto to step out of the gravity zone when he reverted.
>>279807317>Did he reunite with Itachi?Another amazing example of high translation quality.
This isn't a question of if, it's if this is because it DID happen.
>>279807686This early in the powercreep sasuke would have been turned into red mist had it connected

Chapter 176: Rivals
END
Tomorrow: The Sound Four
>>279807677>Pain can dodge too, besides STHe couldn't here
>>279807176 which is why he needed to absorb it
I think I'm being misunderstood though. At the end of the day Pain IS obviously stronger and Kishimoto has to ignore Rinnegan abilities on purpose (just like he did in the final fight with Sasuke because Rinnegan is annoying like that). No insta Shinra Tensei win, nothing is really clear (why can Naruto escape Chibaku Tensei by turning back to normal?)
But if you reread the village invasion, you don't need 6 Tails throwing nukes at Deva Path to win. Kakashi could have beaten him with a proper setup and tactics. This isn't DBZ.

>>279808108Their security is awful.
>>279807817Yes, theoretically he only needs to get one rasengan on the actual body to win. There are ways in which that can be achieved sure, but i don't think he can do it all alone, especially when in the pain arc he can only make two clones while in sage mode.
>>279808296That's exactly what he did at the end though. Sage Naruto and 3 clones are surely better than Kakashi and two Akimichis.
>>279808176>things that never happenedLet's not even get into speed discussion lol. MS Sasuke can literally blitz sage mode.

>>279808365Tendo was at full power against Kakashi/Choza/Choji and nearly got caught (needed saving from another Pain)
At this point it's pretty obvious it's not consistent and just arbitrary so I'm kinda done with the autistic debate
>>279808392Sasuke doesn't even have anything to hurt Naruto
>>279808467He wasn't going all out. They caught him offguard.
In any case, tendo can fly you know. He did it during shinra tensei. Naruto's final attack doesn't need him to deflect the clones with ST. Him being drained is part of the reason why Naruto's strategy worked. His plan wasn't as clever as Kakashi's. It relied too much on resisting the push with quantity.
>>279808588m-muh... muh chidori that tied with base nardo...
>>279808588Lol. MS Sasuke has more firepower than SM naruto, including a OHKO move that until 5 kage summit only a full speed raikage can physically dodge.

>His plan wasn't as clever as Kakashi's.I completely disagree and that's not even about power debates or whatever, just read the plan again and see how many steps there were. An entire chapter full of tricks, Kakashi's trick was a two steps setup that lasted 3 pages.
>>279808637MS Sasuke gets raped in the first 5s unless he hides in his Susano if I'm being honest. The best he can hope for is Naruto getting there in base and not bothering with sage mode like he did when they met in the actual story.
First movie was the best Part 1 Naruto Movie
>>279808680It's quite obvious that he isn't going all out. This guy can shoot three 10 tonne summons 100 ft with a serious ST. Why did he not use it against Kakashi?
Oh just because he didn't use it in a fight, he can't use it period. Aren't you the guy who was writing all those headcanons above how sm naruto could win? What happened now? What tricks? Just one transformation jutsu and one bullish resistance. Kakashi using choji and chouza to immobilize tendo was smarter and less brute force
>>279808637Lol it's not even faster than gaara's sand what are you on about
>>279808794>Oh just because he didn't use it in a fight, he can't use it periodNo, he can, he just didn't find an opportunity to use it. A character not using some tools because the author didn't care to write that doesn't mean he's "going easy on purpose", it just means the power system is inconsistent.
Kakashi and friends would have won if the other Pain wasn't there to shield Deva Path, and it has nothing to do with hubris and not going all out.
>>279808709Already had this discussion. A whole thread on it. SM naruto has no chance. Sasuke even with base sharingan could run circles around sage mode at that point. Take your nardowanking ass there and read and stop bothering me.

>>279808897Well if it helps you, the thread was conclusive enough that the shartruto cuck stopped trying to argue in good faith. But seriously there is no comparison. Even Sasuke's susanoo arrows which he can spam are individually fast enough to rape sage mode into oblivion. And naruto has no answer that doesn't take a year to create.
>>279808951>shartypostingI accept your concession ;^)
>>279808876Because of mc privilege and nothing else
>>279807060This is the last we'll get to see Sasuke drawn silly, right?
>>279808972Concession of victory
>Raikage if he used the lariat instead of liger bomb
>>279808984Clones and sm precog gg
>>279807412>he doesn't like high jumpjust how fat are you? don't lie
AAAAAIIIIIIIEEEEEE SAVE ME AMATERASU
>>279808905Kagutsuchi is literally controlled amaterasu dumbass, hia left eye power
>>279809028>sm precogOnly sage to actually detect amaterasu build up was a God in juubito. And even he didn't dodge it. Only EoS Naruto has a shot at this
>>279809075Retard, kagutsuchi is not as fast as amaterasu, because it requires physical movement of already existing flames. Seriously why are nardowankers always so fucking illiterate? This is literally the description of the technique.
>A singe clone of Naruto was able to oneshot the literal dad of Raikage himself, someone who's scaled to 8 tails physically
>Tardsuke would've died to moderate Raikage had gaara not saved him
>>279809195>Bigger number always winsBest storytelling format
>>279809207>nardowankers in charge of reading3rd raikage jobbed to his own attack
The Sasuke that fought raikage could barely use susanoo and kagutsuchi and still almost killed the raikage, who is said to be EQUAL to 3rd raikage. These threads would be so much better if not ever nardo self inserter was a goddamned retard
>>279809207A tailed beast is much weaker without the host and 4th raikage is said to be as physically strong as 3rd raikage and he went all out against a still green MS Sauce and almost still died.
>>279809149Nuh uh, there's no imaginary existing flame here at all
>>279809207SAVE ME ITACHI AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
>>279809352Retard, the inferno style is giving shape to the flames, not creating them. Regardless of your sutism, kagutsuchi is for shaping flames into attack and it's never shown that gaara blocked amaterasu
>>279809414Nuh uh, he's literally using his right eye, are you blind??
>>279806604>no uWhat the fuck are you talking about, lmao. Literally nothing of what you have said has any concrete evidence, and you just act like your own baseless interpretations are what's canon. Aka headcanon.
>no Sasuke was ackshually bluffing with Kirin because the sky was clear>no ackshually he wasn't trying to use Kirin at all he was trying to use another that we never got to see>no he wasn't trying to kill Orochimaru with the lightning blade he wanted to waste time telling him Oro how he's a bad man even though that's extremely out of character for him>no he purposefully missed Yamato's vitals when he stabbed him even though he wasn't aiming for Yamato and lightning attacks have been shown to not be 100% accurate>no Naruto knew he wasn't going to kill him even though he had no idea of how Sasuke grew up and last time they saw each other in the Retrieval Arc he still thought Sasuke would willingly come back with himYou really are a pathetic retard. Your shilling for this shit writing is beyond embarrassing.
Seriously, you're a massive moron. Lmao.
>>279807411Sasuke should have realize Chidori is just a different kind of technique, you can't compare the damage between the two.
damn, saucekek got shredded today
>>279809551Amaterasu is left eye. We never see the flame ignite in panel. He is using the right eye to shape them. This is straightforward.
In any case, even if you want to believe kagutsuchi generates flame it only does around Sasuke's body, after it has to be used as you would a physical weapon. The technique that instantly ignites a target from long distance is Amaterasu which was never used against Gaara, and we have a clear panel of C saying that MS was the reason Raikage went V2 because he already lost a speed contest to base sharingan on V1. If you think Gaara keeps up with that, then Gaara would also blitz sm naruto.
>>279806604>Sasuke purposefully used an attack that wouldn't kill Oro just so he could monologue>If Oro didn't block that attack he would've gotten killedImagine being so retarded that you can't even realise how hard you contradict yourself.
>>279809349>A tailed beast is much weaker without the hostwhaddafuk
>>279808984No, it's because amaterasu is dogshit
>>279809584>headcanon galore>ad hominem galore>complete inability to READI already knew you were retarded. You didn't have to write 2000 characters to prove it more.
>>279809621>lost both in the thread and in the storyBad Sauce day...
>>279809621>shartrutocuck is still scared of direct engagementNot a single argument btw
>>279809349Why don't the tailed beasts that aren't humanoid learn to make chakra arms and use jutsu? The quadrupeds are all pushovers because they can't make hand seals.
>>279809727Learn to read, retard
>>279809691Stop flaring your nostrils like a retard, read properly once, and keep all ypur retardation in one reply
>>279809745Because they are retarded animals. That's why a jinchuuriki is far more useful as a military tool, but nardo self inserters are too retarded to read and don't like anything that challenges their headcanon.
>>279809660How did he shoot multiple enton orbs with v1 susanoo then??
This is legitimately the first time I've ever seen Sasukebrown actually talk about the damn story in any way, genuine novelty factor
Shartrutocuck still in thread with his second hand seething because he got destroyed once already
Lol. I hope all this irony can help you sleep better at night because you and your cuck mc aren't winning
>>279809888basado, goku won
>>279809861When? And you answered your own question. The orb shoots them
>>279809916How did he exactly shoot these things?? I thought you said kagutsuchi is just a flame manipulation 1cm away from his body??
>say Sasuke is stronger with logical arguments
>get called sasuketard/fag/brown/kek by cucks
>point out how all the self inserters turn a blind eye to all logic if it allows more fellation of the MC
>constant seething at the mention of the word
Not even hiding at this point lol. These threads are just sage spaces for retarded self inserters and their headcanon about their hero, nuruto
>>279810033I wrote a whole paragraph below it too, where i said that with enton the flames have to be used like physical objects are i.e. they will have to thrown/shot etc. which is slower than long distance spontaneous combustion of amaterasu. Are you dense?
>>279809870They are not the same guy
>>279810034I mock both you and those who answer you before we reach bump limit, all of you use ad hominem, cherrypick moments and go against authorial intention, wich is what matters most to a story like Naruto, where power levels can shift this much.
>>279810131>stop raping, Sasukebro...
>>279809745>The quadrupeds are all pushovers because they can't make hand seals.Bijuu can do jutsu if they want, Shukaku was doing wind style and sealing. The real problem is that being huge makes them much easier to hit, and their defense is much less than their offense.
>>279810094Yes exactly, I'm asking HOW did he throw those ball of flames again???
>>279810142And authorial intention for self inserts is fixed and unwavering which is not case if you read properly. You're biased yourself so i don't expect you to see this
>>279810197If you just skip to Sasuke waking up during war arc and killing white zetsu, it is shown that the orb can shoot flames
>>279810034>sage spacesI got that one
>>279810253And by shoot i mean physically shoot as in there is a trajectory and physical movement of the flames
>>279809660Lmao what
Amaterasu doesn't instantly ignite its target, Manga clearly shows the flame traveling through air when they're used against hachibi, raikage, obito and kaguya
>>279810211Anon, you argue that Sasuke would speedblitz Naruto, wich is pretty clearly the fanboyish behavior you accuse others of.
>>279810315He absolutely would. All the evidence is there. If you just take off your nardo glasses you would see it too.
>>279807456THESE WOUNDS THEY WILL NOT HEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAL
>>279807528>it's complicated>explains it with one word, "Orochimaru"
>>279810311Manga never shows the flame travelling. Seriously man, you can't come back and accuse me of fanboying when you haven't even read the manga you keep posting from
>Suigetsu...did we beat Sage Naruto?
>That was a clone, Sasuke.
>>279810033Huh, I never noticed that Sasuke had amaterasu hovering above him.
>>279810311>enton headcanon failed, let's try amaterasu headcanon nowLol
>>279810381There's no way that Hebi/Taka is beating a single sage mode naruto clone.
If it was Sasuke all the shartrutokeks would have dogpiled the anon who was trying to convince everyone how sm naruto would have beaten pain even without kyuubi and frog force's help. Then they get mad at being called self inserters. Kek.
>>279810253The thing is lil bro, gaara's sand was fast enough to intercept a blitz attempt by V2 Raikage, someone who's fast enough that a certain fagboy with lightspeed amaterasu decided not to use amaterasu and instead cower himself behind protection because he can't keep up with the Beast
>>279810444If by taka you mean pre 5 kage summit then you're still wrong
I only self-insert as Shikamaru, the strongest, wisest, most intelligent, powerful, handsome, Hokage-tier leader and fighter, most attractive wife, loves fatties, 1v1s Akatsuki members, can get revenge, is so damn COOL
>>279810510>blitz attempt>a leg drop so slow every fucking body in the building saw it coming as it was happening Are all nardowankers on a crusade today to undeniably prove that they are illiterate and retarded?
Sasuke had no intention of fighting Gaara to begin with. Amaterasu takes more toll on the sharingan, there was no need to waste it on Gaara when Sasuke was aiming for Danzo, and that's what he did. But if you really want to hear it, Gaara would have probably raped your hero too at that point in time. He was certainly stronger than raikage at least.

Jesus Christ, I just wanted to read the chapter, what is this bullshit?
Were all Narutofans this butthurt about Sasuke not being portrayed as some bilthering idiot for majority of the story?
>>279807411Chidoricucks...
>>279807644Me when I lie:
>>279807802Thanks, OP.
>>279810743>Jesus Christ, I just wanted to read the chapter, what is this bullshit?Funny how if this was any other thread it would be
>ermmmm you're ACTUALLY reading these shitty DAILIES?!?!?!?!/1/111?!?!! *jeetjeetjeet noises*
>>279810379>>279810422Just because Amaterasu spawns near the target doesn't mean it's not a projectile retard, raikage literally outsped it and the thing traveled for a bit and landed on a samurai. Obito blocked it with tsb, are you saying tardsuke aimed his flame on a shield lmao?
Naruto? The talented genius.
Sasuke? The untalented "hard worker".
>>279809313Which Sound 4 do you think has the best design?
>>279810898Sasuke did actually train by himself as hard as he could, while Naruto did nothing for the majority of his time at the academy.
>>279810624A leg drop so slow the faglord just accepted his fate on the ground?why didn't he just.. stand up and evade if he was so fast retard why did he use the protective flame and kept getting teleports behind you'd the entire time thought he was as fast as 30% sage mode GODruto ?
>>279810807You fucking retard, Amaterasu is not a projectile. It spawns at the target, but obito blocked his line of sight by shielding it with tsb right beforethe moment of spawn. Raikage dodged it by moving away from Sasuke's line of sight just as it was spawning. It is still a long range spontaneous ignition attack. It seems that the only thing you're good at is deepthroating your cuck mc lol. No reading comprehension. It's literally written there that Sasuke used enton against Gaara and we have seen enough enton attacks in the series and have the working of amaterasu explained clearly enough to know it's not as fast as Amaterasu

>>279810923I think Tayuya is best overall but I like Kidomarus cm1 a lot
>>279810969Because being hurt and on the ground don't factor in the fight? You're genuinely retarded kek. I hope you are arguing only for argument's sake and genuinely don't believe this retardation you're posting.
You really want to hear it? Your cuck mc is much slower. Even with that retarded interpretation Sasuke would still run circles around shartruto and his frog with the base sharingan

Take away Kurama and Naruto is fodder btw.
Sasuke would still lose.
>>279807608>is it Itachi?Is he seriously asking that after watching Sasuke insist on trying to 1v1 Itachi even after getting his wrist snapped and sent flying to the other end of the hotel.
