Dishonorable mention: Madara Albeit in a very sickening and insidious way, he managed to raise Obito's level from Chunin to that of crossing blades with the Fourth Hokage within a period of one to two years.

[@bw5020]

I like this. Either Obito is a late bloomer or Madara is a very good teacher

[@williamcote4208]

Well, having a white Zetsu grafted on to him kinda helped there. I mean, he took out an entire anbu squad from Kiri right after he wore the spiral head zetsu, ok, unlocking MS kinda helped there as well, but that fight wasn’t a fight… it was a one sided SLAUGHTER.

[@alphonml6220]

@williamcote4208 Hunter nin can be safely assumed to be jounin. Dude hoed all of them with a wood style he don't understand. That is dope to me. I actually wonder how he'd do if he didn't have the white zetsu armor thing going on.

[@phonyalias7574]

That was entirely due to the power of Kamui though. Obito's feats without Kamui are still quite poor until he has the 10 tails. While Kamui is insanely powerful, and the Zetsu body enhancements allowed Obito to spam it to it's maximum potential, Obito really had nothing else going on regarding battle IQ or techniques. He had one very, very strong ability as a result of genetics and surgical enhancements, but little as a result of training, hard work, talent, or teaching. If Madara gave Obito anything, I think it was Obito's ability to also use talk no jutsu.

[@poochyenajones1362]

Technically it wasn't Jiraiya who taught Naruto the sage mode, it was Ma and Pa. Naruto only used Jiraiya as a guideline on how he should train with the sage mode.

@@jamisonreynolds9949then why did u come back lol? He arguably knows more Naruto Lore than most Narutubers on KZbin. Just because he makes a couple mistakes doesn’t make him bad at this lol. There’s nothing wrong with stating your opinion on Nick, but if you literally just came back to diss him then there’s the problem. Also this list wasn’t too bad. The only thing wrong was really Kakashi at #7, but he stated himself that he put him up there way too high. He basically favoured Kakashi, he could have put Kakashi in the honorable mentions but he didn’t, because he put him at #7 due to him letting Naruto using the rasengan and Sasuke using the chidori. Also the other thing was really Jiraiya teaching him Sage mode, but everyone makes a slip up once in a while. He makes these videos 3 times a week and does a lot of research so I wouldn’t blame him if he got tired and made a mistake like changing Kirin to Karin lmao.

[@serenadesilhout]

Honorable mention, Killer Bee. Yes he was there for the shortest amount of time. But responsible for the biggest growth spurt in Naruto. He taught him to let go and confront himself. He taught him how to tame and master the nine tails energy which was the deciding factor in the war. Naruto calls him Octo-pops. He was also there to smack some sense into Sasuke. Let’s more forget that he has a number of students in the Cloud village. The best non-Konoha sensei hands down.

[@sapnavora6834]

the sand siblings teacher also deserves respect for being able to train gaara and he most likely taught temari wind style since he also has wind release

[@umbralowl]

​@@sapnavora6834 I'll give you that he trained Temari in her wind jutsu, But Gaara was already stronger than Baki, He didn't teach Gaara anything. As a puppet user Kankuro probably had to learn from someone else for his jutsu

[@jweeeb5707]

Big valid take didn’t think of that, he also progressed the plot fast but didn’t feel like he was rushing it, that early war arc was very well written (besides the fights ofc

[@bookmew1081]

Killer B was such a great Sensei & not just to Naruto remember the episode with Amiyuri Ringo? Octopops is a master of Kenjutsu sword techniques & he gave Omoi the sword skills to trap Ameyuri Ringo & earn her respect.

[@Xtrooper116]

Asuma is too low. He taught his students about them selves, their emotions and their flaws. He knew them probably on the most personal level than any of the teachers mentioned. He also knew how to deal with their falws as was able to make them each stronger as individual but ALSO as a unit as I would also say his unit was probably the closest as friends. He can be said to be solely responsible for instilling values into his students that completely reshaped their lives. However no one beat Koro Sensei (RIP)

[@KitsuneAdorable]

I hated how Kishimoto killed of Asuma. 😭

[@ben0789]

​@KitsuneAdorable and he died around episode 80 like his father the 3rd hokage

[@KingPomegranite]

He also had the first student to pass the chunin exams out of the whole group

[@superkun3478]

A lot of that tho was explained through him having the "blueprint" since a sarutobi always teaches ino-shika-cho. Helping them become stronger in their respective ways was at least partially figured out already. And them being closer than the others makes sense too cause since ino-shika-cho is together every generation they're more likely to be closer than the other teams. I'm pretty sure their parents had introduced them to each other well before the academy. He was an excellent father esque figure for all of them and he gets full credit for that but I think other teachers were still good role models and parental figures while also being better at adapting to their students differences

[@redblue4127]

His group carried on fone after he was long dead and he had the most prrssure in securing the cohesion of inoshikacho

[@calebtoles3819]

To be fair, if I remember right, Kurenai had those three because she was putting together a tracker squad. All three had great scouting and tracking potentials with their unique styles. Obviously Shino was amazing at it given how he tracked Sasuke at the end of the chunin exams. Obviously Kiba does well tracking, I mean that’s basically his biggest strength. While Hinata was trained up to be an absolutely monstrous sensor type ninja. All in all, Kurenai did an amazing job as a sensei

[@10eightyprince]

Their natural skill sets literally means she didn’t have to teach them much at all😂

[@ikingslayer2689]

@@10eightyprince I mean like he said in the vid, there's not much she could teach cause she doesn't have their abilities. Its why they were trained by their family mostly. I think she could of taught sakura some great genjutsu though if sakura had went down that road. Imagine a destructive chakra control healing genjutsu master.

[@orianefaton1885]

Kakashi is the one noting this squad was made for tracking, if I remember, but whether Kurenai herself wanted it, I dunno. If anything, this part of her team means it would have made more sense, to have Kakashi teaching them. Sure, the sharingan is different from the Byakugan, but he would have a lot more to teach about dojustu to Hinata than Kurenai did. The guy with literal dogs summons could likely teach really well to Kiba and Akamaru (plus, Kakashi also had a good scent of smell, tough not as good as an Inuzuka, if I remember right). And Shino... well, I guess except teaching him to fight close combat in case an opponent somehow managed... what do you wanna teach an Aburame when you aren't one yourself ? Meanwhile, Kurenai may have been great for Team 7. Sasuke and Sakura both would have benefited from learning genjustu (Sasuke because Sharingan, Sakura because the story spent its time telling you she may have talent for it) and while I think she wouldn't have been able to teach this to loss cause Naruto, she could have taught him how to break out of genjustu or notice he is in one, or another stuff like this, which would have been useful still to him.

[@jeromedurand1067]

I would like to add the sensei for the Sand Siblings. Not that he was a particularly good sensei, but that he had a team of cruel monsters and had to raise them. He deserves respect just for being alive after training Gaara.

[@TerribleTake]

Is he still alive?

[@Mech299]

Baki. A Jounin, and he's never seen to die in the series, so I'm going to say that yes he is. Also, we see that canonically he has Wind Release, so even though we don't see him training them, we can assume that he had a big hand in training Temari, one of the greatest Wind Ninjutsu users in the entire world. That deserves a bump to at least the Top 10 in my book. Besides, Kakashi, regardless of what anyone thinks of him as a character, was a TERRIBLE sensei. I think that Nick was showing favoritism by putting him up at the #7 spot (har har), when he should've gotten an honorable mention at best. He spent almost no time actually teaching his team anything, he completely ignored Sakura and he mostly just focused on Naruto and Sasuke. He didn't teach anything of substance to Naruto (even though he has Shadow Clones and could easily have split himself to give instruction to ALL of his students, even if Sakura wasn't continuing on into the finals) and by the time he's training ANYONE in Team 7 again, it's in a singular attribute of a single technique that he didn't even learn to do properly himself. Kakashi was an ANBU captain, he's used to commanding field teams, adults that listen to orders and get the job done. That's the only thing we really see his team doing in that Konohamaru filler episode with Tora the cat. He taught them hunting formations and a bit of discipline so that they can work as a unit while hunting a target. And Wall Walking. That's it. Imo? Kurenai should've been in the top 10 because by Nick's own admission, she had a hell of a time with the students she was handed and she still managed to make them all into competent shinobi with strong bonds of teamwork and friendship. That deserves a higher spot than Kakashi no matter how you slice it.

[@jeromedurand1067]

Also it is kind of the same thing for Baki and for Kurenai. They were given a team with different justsu that the sensei could not train the students in. And they managed to create good teams. I think it is important to remember that Gaara became a Kage over the two years, Kankuro became a Jonin an I think the only reason Temari wasn't a Jonin was because she was an ambassador. And I won't list everything that Kurenai did, but she also trained them until she couldn't be a ninja because she was pregnant.

[@thanatoskw8285]

Yeah I dunno man, I like Baki and all, and yeah he probably had a lot to do with Temari being as good as she is. But he doesn't know shit about puppets as far as we know, and Kakuro is rarely more than a punchline, so it's safe to say he didn't do much for him. Gaara's sand is automatic for the early part of the series, and when he's finally like "Damn man this sand isn't enough, I need to actually be able to fight," who did he go to? Not Baki. Dude didn't even go to his own sensei to train him in the one thing anyone can be taught. Doesn't speak to him being much of a sensei for anyone but Temari. That's kind of the theme though if we're being honest with the part 1 senseis. Kakashi didn't give a shit about anyone but Sasuke, Guy didn't give a shit about anyone but Lee, Asuma didn't give a shit about anyone but Shikamaru (not as egregious as the others but still very clearly a favorite by a wide margin), and Baki had Temari. Honestly Kurenai seems like the only one who didn't play favorites.

[@mrmoonman7380]

Baki should be on the list. Trained the Kazekage’s kids, he kept a leash on Gaara when he was his craziest and supported him when he was Kazekage. His team was the only full team to reach the end of the chunin exams and are all 3 Jonin by the beginning of Shippuden. He was a supportive but strict teacher who’s students all excelled to the tops of their field.

[@almightykd291]

What about Pakura the Hero of the Sand then she raised Maki who became a really great sealing user and it seems like they were close like family because Maki lamented after Pakura’s assassination crying at her grave

[@user-xw4mu6nz4t]

Yeah I really thought he'd be here, I mean he's literally a Jonin specialised in teaching

[@SCSLucid]

The one thing people seem to forget about Sakura, is once the Diamond appeared on her forehead... She had access to her entire pool of Chakra. Cause during the entire series she was funneling chakra to the seal, but once it was complete she no longer had to split her focus which we saw amped her by miles...

[@VeniceTrojan]

I thought she is always funneling chakra in it? When released she gets access to that chakra back. Where did they say that the seal has a limit?

[@susear5939]

​@@VeniceTrojan the seal doesn't have an upper limit. It has a functional minimum. It is called the "Seal of 100 Healings." There is a bare minimum amount needed to achieve this. Only when Sakura reached that amount for the first time did the diamond mark appear.

[@ohboi9578]

No imo it feels more like the byakugo seal acts as an artificial additional chakra pool. It's like paying for icloud storage in addition to your device's physical memory card.

[@bignoob2726]

Actually, she shouldn't have been able to fight nevermind perform medical ninjutsu. The seal is already almost impossible to attain even if u remain inactive. Her doing anything was an insane chakra control feat within an insane chakra control feat. One of the best chakra control feats in the series. Best unfortunately she was a female character so this feat went under the radar and everyone thinks that she couldn't really fight solely due to just being useless.

[@5stargrim]

@@bignoob2726 That’s because “a chakra control feat” doesn’t mean anything in Naruto. It’s just a vague claim in a vague claim. For instance, Sakura was supposed to be a pretty good genjutsu user because of said chakra control. That never shook out. Besides, you can call “controlling chakra” effective, but it really doesn’t look impressive at all next to Naruto throwing out Biju bombs that require unbelievable control over far fender chakra than Sakura can hope to control.. Like yeah. It’s nice to have, but it just makes her the top of the bottom tier. She’s never going to match up to the rest of team 7 because that how bad kishi is at writing a solid female lead

[@playmajor]

Kakashi definitely got through to Sasuke when he tied him to the tree for the lecture but what messed it up was the Sound 4 showing up RIGHT after that convo

[@jofujino]

I definitely think Kakashi shouldn't be higher than an honorable mention. His most important lesson pre-time skip was on teamwork, which team 7 completely failed at culminating in his student going missing-nin. The only noteworthy training he gave was to Sasuke before the Chunin finals, while neglecting both Naruto and Sakura. He definitely didn't care Sakura was completely unprepared for the Chunin exams, despite that posing a serious risk of death for her. Training Naruto post-time skip was great but just drives home how much he wasted the potential training time of pre-time skip Naruto.

[@ZeeB...]

​@jofujino Yup, I hated how when Kakashi was asked if was he going to let his team enter the chunin exams, he said they were ready, but they were far from ready especially Sakura and Naruto. They needed the training more than Sasuke.

[@Bts_boy-0t7]

He ignored Sakura all the time , as a teacher he should have teach something to her

[@Thunderkeg]

I can't believe Asuma was so low, he's one of the only Sensei to actually focus on all of their students and taught more than just combat. Most of the other Sensei on this list straight up neglect at least one of their students while favoring another, even my boy Guy basically ignores TenTen and Neji.

[@thebigg8454]

Asuma. He was never bias. All his students loved him. All his students stayed loyal. All his students took his lessons to be better people mentally instead of just powerful. Asuma even in death was just happy to see his students being able to move passed his death and become stronger as a team. Asuma saw his team's flaws and worked with them to use it to their advantage. Shikamaru was lazy but smart so he reached out to him with shogi to teach leadership skills. Chijo was a glutton with confidence issues so he rewarded him with BBQ and encouraged him even when he fails to be proud of himself for showing the grit to fight. Ino was vein and lacked a clear ambition as to what type of ninja she wanted to be. So he told her to be the best at what she could do and trust her teammates to have her back. Asuma wins. Hands down

He was a great teacher and a pretty good person but seemed to be hesitant when it came to a lot of things like his confrontations with orochimaru and dealing with the uchihas. He seemed to just want people to develop to their full potential and embrace each other peacefully. He was a good figure to look up to for his caring nature but was too easily swayed by others in his circle. He was just a person with a big heart that also caused him trouble since his emotions got in the way of his decision making.

[@Bdonsantoast]

His characters role was very important to the show in many ways.I think him and his students were crazy powerful when not comparing them to some of the later characters in the war arc. They scale up to some akatsuki members and Kage for sure. I hoped that Konohamaru would be our way of seeing someone close to what Hiruzen was when in his prime but so far I don’t think he’s been what I imagined him to be as an adult.

Kakashi became a chunin at 6 and jonin at 10. It wasn't until Kakashi became a jonin that they were sent on a mission without Minato. This is a presumption of course because of the reaction Obito gives when Kakashi is put in charge during the mission where Kakashi receives his sharingan.

I wouldn't say that he was a bad sensei though when there's at least 4 years of him being a sensei that we have no knowledge about.

Thank you for Kakashi’s low Ranking!Nobody talks about the fact that Kakashi is objectively a really shitty teacher sure he thought Sasuke The Chidori, and he helped Naruto develop the Rasenshuriekn, but overall he was really negligent with his students specifically Sakura. His favoritism towards Sasuke, because of his guilt on how he failed Obito created a bias that clouded his judgment in terms of making sure that his team overall developed. If you look at Asuma every member of team 10 developed to be strong and he helped them hone their teamwork especially with their secret clan ninjutsu they learned from their parents. If you look at team 8 Kurenai helped Hinata Shino and Kiba hone their amazing tracking abilities to use them TOGETHER. I can’t say a single thing that Kakashi taught Sakura besides walking up a tree. In the bell challenge, he talked about teamwork, and throughout the entirety of the story, he didn’t help them develop any teamwork. In part 1 he was fixated on trying to help Sasuke in part 2 he was fixated on trying to help Naruto and Sakura completely got overshadowed. Not only that, but Sasuke, Sakura and Naruto didn’t develop any of their overall skills that became important for the main story by kakashi. They learned and grew more with the 3 Sannin

[@billiondavid]

Exactly!

[@babadoudidadouda]

"His favoritism towards Sasuke" I think, at this point I'm going to call this "favoritism" an urban legend. Could you mention any time where he favored Sasuke over the other two which isn't him training Sasuke during the Chuunin exam for what, I believe, are very valid reasons that had nothing to do with him prefering Sasuke over Naruto? Any other example of his infamous Sasuke favoritism? One (shaky, imo) example is far from enough to come to this conclusion. A lot of the training he gave them isn't fancy training resulting in amazing technics, but the bases of things like survival and combat (and other stuff) and yes, teamwork. And, if you examin their level at the beginning of the show and during the Chuuning exams, you can see improvements, even before the last round. The issue is that we don't get to see it (the training) directly because a lot is implied to have happened during the minor timeskips occuring in Naruto part 1. For instance, Sakura mentionned something like "the week of training from hell", we didn't see it, but it happened. There's also a brief mention at the same time of Kakashi having taught a genjutsu technics specifically to Sakura. The fact we don't get to have more of Kakashi teaching Sakura genjutsu or Sakura using it in general is not a clue of Kakashi not liking Sakura or being a lousy teacher, but of the writer pushing Sakura aside in favor of Naruto and Sasuke (which I don't like). In part 2, he wasn't Sakura's teacher anymore (and, by the way, he recommended her to Tsunade, showing how much he trusted Sakura's abilities and knew Tsunade would help her grow more as a ninja than he could), so it wasn't his responsibility to teach her. Unless she had asked him (or shown the desire for it) directly to train her. I'm sure he wouldn't have refuse her his help. Bashing Kakashi for his "bad" teaching is pretty commonplace in the fandom, so much that I don't see much person trying to take a step back to analyse if it was really as bad as some people say it was. A lot of Sakura and Naruto's bond and ninja way developped because of Kakashi. He lay the foundations and other got to come after to built the more notable and "shiny" part of their arsenal.

I think Naruto deserves a mention. Not even taking into account that he inspired the rest of the Konoha Shinobi to be better and stronger, he taught Hara compassion and helped Tsunade get past her depression and find herself. He taught Konohamaru the Rasengan which he used to defeat the Naraka path, one of the most hype moments in the entire series. Being able to inspire a snotty, entitled brat to become a powerful and selfless Shinobi able to actually do something so noteworthy deserves recognition.

[@mattys6106]

Minato can't be held responsible for how Obito turned out... at all. He was warped and twisted by an old man with a very specific plan (Madara). Minato did things like helped Obito see Kakashi in a different light when they deeply misunderstood each other, which led to them being able to be some-what self sufficient when he wasn't there. A BIG point for a sensei. Not being able to assess Kakashi's mental state and assigning him to the root was definitely a poor choice, but fortunately its effects weren't permanent. What Minato did between Obito and Kakashi is the major focus of his short time as a sensei

[@JoannaHatake4922]

@@crazydyablo6719 Do u guys even know why he cared bout Sasuke?

[@JoannaHatake4922]

@@crazydyablo6719 Did u ever question why he spent time on Sasuke? I have different pointers on this~ A> Path Of Revenge:- Unlike Naruto and Sakura, Sasuke was consumed by darkness. He _wanted_ to get revenge. He was going in a wrong path. Naruto however his heart isn't like that nor Sakura's. Sasuke was the one who had intentions on going rogue and Kakashi sensing this.. Kakashi himself had every reason to go rouge so he understands what Sasuke feels. Kakashi's words didn't work coz of Sasuke being stubborn, he truly knows what Sasuke feels coz he had gone through a lot worse situations than Sasuke. Kakashi was determined to get Sasuke out of the path of revenge coz he knows it doesn't end well. B> Sandaime's orders:- Yes, the Sandaime asked Kakashi to specifically look after Sasuke coz:- i> Sasuke being the only Uchiha. ii> Sasuke the only one having the natural shrinagn and the third wants to see him obtain his sharingan. iii> Also coz Kakashi has the sharingan and he could teach Sasuke more than the other sensei. iv> Itachi too, this is a whole separate point. C> Itachi:- Kakashi knew Itachi way back when he was in Anbu. Kakashi wanted him to be a good mentor towards the youngster (Itachi). So when he found out bout the Uchiha massacre he felt extreme guilt take over his body. He felt guilty that he wasn't able to understand his fellow peer. He advised Itachi that he could talk to him if something is bothering him coz he knows Shisui's sucide and he compares the situations when his father died the same way. He wanted to be a good mentor to Itachi but all got crushed when Itachi went rogue. So the third even said Kakashi to look after "Itachi's younger brother." Kakashi doesn't want Sasuke to end up as Itachi, going rouge. D> Connections:- Think of the connections Sakura had? She had her parents, Ino and a lot of people. Think of the connections Naruto had? He had Iruka, Ayame, Sandaime, Shikamru, Choji and the Ramen Guy (Teuchi). Think of the connections Sasuke had? _None._ The only connection he had is with Kakashi a mere student-teacher relationship. Only Kakashi had the chance to change Sasuke. He was the only one there with Sasuke. So ofc he had to focus on Sasuke more. E> Resemblance:- As my "A" point stated he saw Sasuke as himself when he was a genin/chunin/(young) jounin. He kinda hated himself when he was in that stage. He just wants Sasuke to not end up like him. F> Chunin Exams:- Who was the opponent of Naruto? Neji~ Well yes Neji is a tough opponent and yes he is strong and all. Neji is exceptionally skilled yes.. Who was the opponent of Sasuke? GAARA! I love Gaara but back when he was in the OG? Gaara was a fricking killing machine for his village. He kills anyone and anything in his sight. He was a maniac back then. Also the fact that he was a fricking "Jinchuriki." There is no comparission between Gaara and Neji, not at all. So the best thing to go against Gaara's ultimate defence? Chidori. G> Chidori:- Kakashi didn't randomly popped out of nowhere and said Sasuke I want to teach you a new technique~~~ Nu, it was Sasuke who asked Kakashi to teach him a new jutsu. Kakashi had a hunch if Sasuke had lighting nature but only got confirmed after the chakra test (chakra indicator paper). Kakashi then said he would pass down his jutsu with him. Chidori is only possible when u have lighting chakra nature and a sharingan so there was no bloody way he was gonna teach the rest, the only way he could do that is to multiple sharingan- which is impossible. He teached Sasuke chidori very expertly saying his individually training is awful is an understatement. It's my boi's jutsu. H> Orochimaru and Bounty:- Kakashi knows Orochimaru is going after Sasuke. That stupid snake just wanted Sasuke's body and Kakashi knows so he is with Sasuke. Not only that but Sasuke being the last Uchiha has a big bounty on his head. So to protect him he was there for Sasuke. If u point out on Naruto then listen Naruto isnt the only jinchuruki unlike Sasuke who was the only "known" Uchiha (-Itachi, Itahci had his own standards no-one could match him to catch him).

Minato is a perfect example of the idea that just being smart and competent doesn't mean you will be a good teacher. You need good interpersonal skills, and you need to know how to convey yourself in ways that are understandable and approachable for others not on your level. Minato is a good person, and a great ninja, but his lack of social skills really impaired his ability to make deep bonds with any of his students. The only people he was ever really close to were Kushina and Jiraiya, both of whom he loved deeply, but he left a minimal impact on his students. Kakashi doesn't even really think about Minato that much, and he was probably Minato's favorite of the 3.

[@phonyalias7574]

Hiruzen was also killed by his student, so 3 were killed by their students. I think that Kakashi, as a sensei, should get a bit more respect for knowing his limits and when to trust his students to others. Sure he lost Sasuke who he wanted to be the Lee to his Guy, and Orochimaru obviously did a better job than Kakashi would've been able to do (though Kakashi could've taught Sasuke some things about the Sharingan that Orochimaru wouldn't have known). His students all ended up with who they needed to be with when they needed them, which is why Naruto got passed around so much. If we're taking off points for having others train Ninja for them, then Tobirama definitely should also lose points. He recognized the need for training, but Hiruzen was his only student who didn't become a sociopath and that may have been more due to the influence of his older brother on Hiruzen, who knew them both. Though he definitely trained strong shinobi and this could be consider probably more similar to Orochimaru for the students he actually did train than say Haguromo who personally trained...basically the whole world

[@infinitedreamer9359]

If what you say about Kakashi is true,then why tf didn't he recommend Sakura to Kurenai for genjutsu training? He mentions it and...doesn't do anything about it.

Maybe because he saw a more immediate risk in Sasuke psychologically, maybe cause he felt a kinship with him, or maybe cause he realized Sasuke and him had similar chakra natures and figured he wanted to pass along his techniques as a first priority.

I think that when the 10 Tails attacks Konoha, Kawaki is going to use a god tier ability, at a similar level to Aida's memory rewrite no jutsu, to make everyone in Konoha enter the same dimension that Naruto is; fulfilling what he believes to be Naruto's wish to protect them. I think certain characters won't be affected by this jutsu including Boruto, Sarada, Sumire, and Himawari. Maybe they will find an excuse to keep all the other classmates from being transported as well so they can be aged for after the time skip. I think after this happens, Konoha will become destroyed by the ten-tails, but there will be no casualties thanks to Kawaki. Regardless, Kawaki will keep everyone stored away in his dimension until Boruto and all other threats are gone.

I'm surprised you didn't mention Kabuto under Orochimaru lol

Great video , it would be cool to see Naruto characters like Hashirama vs Boruto villains

Unpopular opinion, Orochinaru is actually an amazing character. I really like him. Don't get me wrong, he's evil and slimy AF, but pretty amazing when it comes to his writing.
