[@Steckdose_]

In defense of us Tobirama Fans I think people are just exhausted seeing many people downplay him and have him lose like 95% of the time. But at the same time it´s not like Tobirama is the only character that has a Fanbase that hypes him up in battles, I mean especially with Itachi as his opponent. That being said, I just want to explain my stance on the battle. Since we´re talking about alive Tobirama, I think it should be taken into consideration that Madara said, how much Tobirama is slower in Edo compared to his time alive. As well as other statements like him referring to himself only being able to create 2 Shadow Clones as pathetic, implying that while he was alive he was able to create a more impressive amount. And when it comes to the Susanno saying that Tobirama has Experience with it shouldn´t be a far stretched opinion given his many Battles with Uchiha including those that had Mangekyo, so I think it´s fair to assume that he has a battle plan for it, even if he shouldn´t have a Jutsu that can break through it. In my opinion, Tobirama´s experience with fighting Uchiha and his speed which should be superior should give him the edge against alive Itachi.

[@ThunderGodTG]

Agreed Agreed

[@TrafalgarWaterDLaw-dl5cm]

Adding to that i'd say given what Tobirama acompmished in figuring out chakra and inventing so many Ninjutsu on his own that people heavily downplay just how smart he is. Basicly what Hashirama had in brawn he has in brain. Wich means even if he doesn't have expirience fighting Sussannoo's himself he saw Hashirama throw hands with a much bigger perfect one. And with some clones to test the waters can defenately outplay it. Overall he is perfectly trained to avoid any Uchiha shennanigans fighting them all his life and even slaying the second strongest at that time. He more or less has very good sensory abilities and by creating steam and with the flying Raijin he is booth avoiding all genjutsu and is extremely mobile. He also has all chakra natures and created most jutsu Hiruzen mastered. Adding his strong and big senju chakra pool, and Veteran background from Hashi/Madar war times against the Uchiha clan in their prime he can 100% deal with most of Itachi's arsenal. In the mist where Itachi is blind. If he lures Itachi in his sussannoo ontop of any ground seal he teleports inside and gets him. If not Sussannoo will dry Itachi of chakra quickly. Id 100% give this to Toborams because of his background, intellect, broad arsenal, heritage and of course deep insight on everything Uchiha. The man fking studied them. ;,)

[@ExoticZah]

@@donnyx1236 Yo facts, Granny Chiyo literally noted that it was his specialty. Idk why it’s not used in his death battles. He used his reanimations as suicide bombers with his exploding tags. Only reason why he didn’t use them in the war is because he was an edo himself and didn’t need them to use it. He was going to reanimate Madara in the war if Hagoromo didn’t appear. Itachi is losing this fight against Tobirama. Let’s be fr.

[@metalplayer9746]

I like Tobirama and dislike him at the same time, well his ultimate darkness isn't going anywhere with skilled sharingan users, his IQ and battle IQ is one of the biggest but so as itachi's, he grew up in the war era but at the same time itachi is fairly stronger than Izuna was, Itachi is weaker than Madara but he has bigger IQ and Battle IQ than Madara, Madara's MS abilities grant in the end only passive ability to see thru clones, but Itachi had also some degree of sensory, I'm not Itachi's ultra fan but I think that he would be able to win against Tobirama especially bcs Tobirama had arrogance, physically Tobirama was stronger and faster and stamina but itachi had more hax and that would but him at the top, but Tobirama had no sage mode like Hashirama. And with Minato I also think that Itachi is clear, he was skillful with flying rajin and had rasengan he was op but again Itachi had again more HAX, again not to downplay Minato but I personally rank prime kages Hashirama, Hiruzen(even tho it was stated several times that prime hiruzen was stronger than Hashirama, but it's probably mistake made in long term writing) Tobirama and Minato. But when we talk about all of kages, its Naruto, Hashirama, Hiruzen, Tobirama, Minato, Tsunade,Kakashi and Shikamaru.

Tbh the real issue with minato is not yet mention, itachi hearing about the flying raijin does not mean he knows the full mechanics. Hiruzen has access to ftg yet he never mastered its use, hiruzen is a genius i doubt itachi knows the full extent of what minato can do with ftg. A lot of people knows that minato can teleport to his kunai, what about the ability to mark his opponent? No one really knows about that until its too late until they already get close and personal with minato. any taijutsu confrontation itachi has with minato especially if minato is bodyflicker around and is mixing it up with the kunai, itachi is gonna get marked atleast once, and you have to admit, minato marks almost everyone he fights, he marks obito despite having KAMUI, and he marls killer bee tgrough his tentacles and it still worked, it is consistent enough to say minato would mark itachi if they came close, and then its kinda over because minato can get to itachi at anytime, minato would fully control that battle from before it begins really he can allow itachi to exhaust his chakra, and with that shadow clones that can also teleport to itachi as well? I think minato would win by time they got outside the uchiha hideout, because again itachi knows about the kunai, but that does not mean he knows about minato ability to mark his opponent and be able to teleport to them at anytime, nobody ever knows about it besides obito and madara, who literally saw both minato and tobirama did it, one getting marked and destroyed could not react, and the other lost his brother getting taken out by the jutsu,same brother who was relative to madara at the time, thats just me though.

Itachi loses every single one. Hes on his death bed

[@AlanJia8]

Tbh I think 3T Itachi is enough for Tsunade and Old Hiruzen. Orochimaru has a 5 in genjutsu in the databook stats, which aren't that reliable for comparisons to other characters, but definitely is indicative of specialties, so he's definitely no genjutsu slouch, and still got negged. I don't think that's a sign that he's prone to genjutsu, just that even Itachi's basic Sharingan genjutsu is that potent. Even if it doesn't immobilize them forever, he could do what he did to Orochimaru but be less merciful and while they're trying to break out, he cuts off their heads. As for Minato and Tobirama, I honestly think Jonin Minato is a better matchup cause I strongly subscribe to the KCM2 meta for Hokage Minato, and that's simply too fast for Itachi to consistently deal with. Also I don't think the Itachi vs KCM Naruto is very indicative of Itachi's speed, but not really for the reasons you outlined, but rather because Naruto is heavily fatigued from dividing his chakra evenly between himself and 13 clones, which we know is a nerf as Tobirama implies Hashirama would be stronger if he reabsorbed his clones. Tobirama vs Itachi is more interesting, but I do still favor him because he has scalings to/above a stronger version of Sasuke than the one comparable to Edo Itachi.

Obito who's body was just reconstructed with Gedo statue Chakra and Hashirama cells and was using what might be the fastest Sharingan ability gets whooped in their first meeting but... No, Minato's gonna struggle against Itachi. The author comes back to the man's story and says at 13 he was able to keep a full Nine tails a Chakra beast at bay whilst an Uzumaki was struggling and needed a land seal just to keep it at bay.

Out of all the Sannins kits, Tsunade’s is probably the best suited to take Itachi on. Not that she would win, but she has a couple soft counters to him. (Best chakra control in verse, auto chakra pumping jutsu, regeneration, and the actual AP needed to damage a Susanno)

[@mrperson1324]

tsunade would be the easiest for Itachi to beat. She intentionally tanks attacks. Itachi is just going to seal her with Susano and insta win with no difficulty

[@jonathanhayhurst3928]

She might be able to resiset the genjutsu better than the other two, but Amaterasu and Totsuka Blade would both one shot her. Plus he is faster and has a sussanno.

[@SydCar]

Tsunade’s kit is the worst actually. You need to be slippery to fight Itachi because so may of his abilities are oneshot hax. If Tsunade gets engulfed by Amaterasu, then she has to expend chakra to stay alive for the rest of the fight while Itachi can just keep his distance at that point. She’s a brawler with no background in training against Sharingan users, so fighting Itachi whilst avoiding eye contact is completely unreasonable. She’s getting hit with Tsukuyomi, and that’s putting her down if Itachi goes HAM. She is confident with her endurance and regeneration, plus no knowledge of Totsuka Blade. Once she gets shanked, assuming she could easily regen from it, she’s sealed.

[@OkairMcLaren]

​@mrperson1324 She doesn't intentionally tank attacks. Her 1st best option is evasion as that's what the primary and most important rule of a medical ninja is and should be "don't get hit." She has the strength to break susanoo and is fast enough to keep up with itachi and has better reaction than him. Plus tsunade based on her introduction probably could have diagnosed the illness itachi has and take advantage of it. Plus there's Katsuyu who's just gonna straight up overwhelm itachi. Byakugou allows her to tank attacks, I agree but she's not gonna just be using up her chakra unnecessarily if she could just evade.

[@OkairMcLaren]

​@@jonathanhayhurst3928Amateratsu is not oneshotting as Tsunade can use chakra shroud and deflect it. The blade won't be hitting tsunade who can evade effortlessly and can change the terrain whenever she pleases. Orochimaru was just standing there in his hydra form and got stabbed.

[@She_namedme_DJ]

If we are talking Tobirama when he's alive, then yes, he would be able to use Tandem Paper bombs. It was confirmed in the manga when Hiruzen referred to it as Tobirama's "specialty jutsu." All Tobirama needs to perform TPB is an Edo Tensei and the DNA of the person he wants to bring back. Considering that he's the one that invented the Edo Tensei and that he's an almighty Shinobi Warlord that has killed hundreds of people, I'm sure he'd be able to summon one. But it's kinda silly saying that he couldn't use it as we know that Hiruzen has witnessed him use Tandem Paper bombs at least several times when he was alive. And no, the Yata Mirror isn't blocking it. Paper bombs are not chakra based, and TPB scale way above Itachi's Susanno. Plus it's not omnidirectional, it would be enveloped by the explosion. If I tried to block a grenade explosion with a titanium shield, I'd die.

[@ThunderGodTG]

So he CAN use it while he’s alive but, it’s MUCH harder compared to as an Edo as he has to summon edo’s who have no idea how they are strength wise meaning it’s impossible to say if they’d be fast enough to pull this off on Itachi, possible wording mishap by me but it’s more so just not as optimal. As far as the Yata Mirror it 1000% is blocking it as it completely formed around the paper bombs Sasuke threw at the Susanoo. The Tandem would be no different.

[@She_namedme_DJ]

​​​​@ThunderGodTG No, the Yata Mirror is not blocking it. Tandem Paper bombs is a way bigger and more powerful of an explosion than the 7 Paper bombs that Sasuke threw at it. That comparison is silly, as if seven Paper bombs going off is the same as tens of thousands. And we never seen Itachi block attacks with the Yata Mirror from behind. It's never shown to be able to do that. The Yata Mirror doesn't function like Gaara's sand. His Susanno would be INSIDE, the explosion. As for the Edo Tensei, they don't have to be as fast as itachi, Tobirama can just teleport them close enough to Itachi.

[@ThunderGodTG]

So I'll say this I'm under the interpretation the Yata Mirror is Omni Directional, if you're not that's fine and I think you can make a Valid Case for Tandem via the AP difference. As far as the Edo it 1000% Matters stat wise as they have to be controlled to puncture they're chest and blow themselves up, which they'd have to be fast enough to do unless you say Tobirama makes them do it and then teleports them which is more so dependant on if he has a Kunai on/near Itachi or has him marked. Otherwise if they run up and try it Itachi in character can just seal them and has some pretty cracked feats via Totsuka Blade speed so it is relevant. That's really all otherwise we can agree to disagree it's possible I should say just more so on some minor interpretation stuff. I was more so saying that I wouldn't use nameless shinobi being controlled who we have no idea strength wise as an optimal use for Tandem, but them being teleported near Itachi even as the explosion goes off is a good point I should have included.

[@She_namedme_DJ]

@ThunderGodTG Itachi has no such feats where he sealed multiple moving targets with Totsuka Blade. In fact, all of the people we've seen Itachi seal with Totsuka Blade were stationary. I'm not saying he couldn't seal them, but he probably wouldn't be able to seal all of them while being bombarded by multi-shadow clones, and Tobirama hitting him with large-scale waterstyle jutsu. And it's not like surprise attacks will play a huge factor like how he sealed Nagato, considering that Tobirama is a top 3 sensor in the story and will pretty much know where Itachi is at all times. Not to mention that I don't even think that the Yata Mirror would be able to withstand the attack regardless. Itachi can't just block any and every attack. It has its limitations. This is why Itachi didn't try to block Nagato's Chibaku Tensei with Yata Mirror. If he could have, he would've told Bee and Naruto to get close to him and expanded the size of the Yata Mirror. And we're talking about an attack that scales above the Ten Tails Tailed Beast Bomb.

[@TrafalgarWaterDLaw-dl5cm]

Given we talk of Tobirama and seen him make good use of mist to blind Izuna. Mixed with his high level sensory and Flying thunder god he can just summon the edo or even more then one and FTG teleport them over all around itachi who'd be a blind sitting duck in the sussannoo. Then teleport out. We do know he is much faster alive, can use much more clones as well. Implying since two were his limit as an edo and he called it pathetic he could at least use 3 or 4. But given the multiple shadowclones scroll Naruto stole is a jutsu Tobirama invented and he is a senju he might even be able to summon a squad alive. So in conclusion: -He has the brains for the tactics. As he's possibly even smarter or very much on par with Itachi or Minato on intellect. (Just by how perfectly he studied and understood chakra and laid the whole groundwork of what modern shinobi learned in the academy he created. The Jutsu he invented from scratch. And his overall battle iq and adaptability.) -Has livelong Uchiha battle expirience and studied every aspect of them in and out. Therfor he has counters and tactics for basicly everything. -Has a very vast arsenal of abilities. (Most scrolls and jutsu including the forbidden ones he invented) -Has the speed as he is reffered as much slower then alive by Madara. Implying the already very fast edo is just a nerf. -As a Senju he has a big chakra pool, and apparantly strong one too as he effected the enviorment just lifting a finger. Thou we can't say what extend that has. BUT a healthy Senju outlasts alive itachi by miles in chakra and a good vision.

[@ThunderGodTG]

I actually am of the opinion that Kabuto simply drowned Sasuke out, the manga makes it less clear in the anime Sasuke susanoo dissipates due to it being flooded with water, it doesn’t break, this would be consistent with how the ribcage is structured as there is openings at the top and bottom that have been exploited before + air flow can go throw it like we see with Sasuke vs Danzo. It’s just not a usable AP feat imo. Although Kabuto does make the statement in surpassing Tobirama in other ways it seems weird to say he just has better water style off of 1 feat.

That wasn't my implication bad wording probably, I was more so just saying Shuriken were effective, which isnt an anti feat since shinobi amp their shuriken throws, I was more so saying the scene implies he did die, the eye closing was just timing as it's 10 Minutes, not every time he dies.

[@CRO-Palacinke-D.C]

Dude, these are serious allegations against us Tobirama fans lol. With my top3 (Itachi, Minato, Tobirama) I'm the pinnacle of toxicity anyway. Fantastic video loved everything. Imo Itachi vs Minato and Tobirama is a bit more clear in favor of the 2 kage, 7/10 or even 8/10 for them, Edo Itachi being another story like you said. The Kakashi section was a little weird for me. Can't speak on Hokage Kakashi as I've never read the novels myself. But is War Arc Kakashi consistently rated this high? I keep hearing people rate him high, when he never stood out heavily to me. A War Arc Kakashi video may be my no1 needed video to improve my Naruto education lol

[@joaobrito2874]

I am a huge Kakashi fanboy but I disagree with the point that his War arc self clips Tobirama and EMS Sasuke, I do think he has a really good chance of winning but overall is around that level, he has shown a really good and concistent relativity to at least base Minato when they were fighting Black Zetsu, and even some degree of dashing speed relativity to KCM Minato, even though he is still clearly overall inferior. His punches were strong enough to draw blood from Obito who showed great levels of durability, and his Raikiri completly pierced Obito doing more damage than even KCM Naruto’s Rasengan, and the cherry on top is how ridiculous Kamui is, it’s speed is like a blitz level above Kakashi’s own speed, he could teleport the entire body of a Naruto KCM2 clone going at full speed before Obito could realize, he absorbed Minato’s Rasengan before it could hit him so fast that also Minato didn’t realize, and he managed to absorb the entire arm of the Gedo Mazo before it was summoned by Madara again faster than Minato could do anything, and all of these feats with Kamui were without any of the Kurama chakra amps. And as far as hokage Kakashi it gets kinda of ridiculous, right after he lost his sharingan he is at least comparable to above de Raikage, since he was keeping up with and overwhelming a kunoichi who could toy with the Raikage, and in the later novel he casually beat an army with stealth, básico Genjutsu and Taijutsu, and later displayed some casual Country level to continental level feats with a Fire style Jutsu that could counter a ninja tool from the sage of Six paths, that on top of the statements of being imcomparably stronger than his War arc self. And if you want to consider the Boruto Anime canon he also was considered a troublesome opponent by Kashin Koji, the same guy that could press a weakened Jigen

[@remington_acr1651]

One thing people need to understand about FTG is that it’s instantaneous teleportation, meaning there’s zero time between the point in which Minato teleports from point A to B, because of this Minato is more likely to be hit by wider scaled attacks in enclosed environments. There’s a reason why Minato’s seals have quite a bit of distance between them. There’s no point in teleporting away from an attack to a seal that’s like five feet away from the other, due to the nature of how FTG operates he’d still end up dealing with the attack itself unless he’s far away enough. I can see Itachi discovering this fairly quickly and using that to his advantage unless the fight is brought outdoors.

When you brought up Orochimaru it had me rolling because Orochimaru has the worst track record his win loss ratio is crazy. Hokages 1, 6, and 7 are also Coughing Baby VS Hydrogen Bomb but in reverse. Only Tobirama and Minato are relatively even fights imo but Itachi is going to be coughing up a lung like a sick Victorian child in the middle of an FTG combo so I can’t see him pulling a W 💀. Tobirama won’t get his racism amp since Itachi is “one of the good ones.” And if you don’t mind me asking…how powerful DO you think base Jiraiya is???

Sage Naruto in the very early war arc (base Naruto doesn’t get demonstrably stronger between the pain and early war arc, there’s actually a shockingly small time frame between all 3 arcs) could crack the third Raikage’s skin with a rasengan so he should very much be able to hurt the fourth (at least more than Sasuke’s chidori did with his rasengan and wind style rasengan).

I'll lay out my predictions before watching: Hashirama blows Itachi out of the water. Dude is a monster. Tobirama is strong, but Itachi has too much going for him to lose to him in most situations. Itachi's sickness is definitely troublesome, but Tobirama is more of a match-up for EMS Sasuke. Hiruzen is one of the most interesting cases, because if you subscribe to the older lore of him being *the* Giga Chad Hokage and put him in his youth, he's got a decent enough case with his arsenal and some of his elemental ninjutsu being pretty potent for what they are. Though, old Hiruzen seems shaky to me. Minato doesn't have the most AP, barring his one-shot story, but his speed, especially with FTG, are just too much for Itachi to keep up with, especially if he's sick. I give that match to him. Tsunade's very much a tank like Hashirama, but even with her cracked raw power, she just doesn't have the speed to contend with Itachi and she'd probably get Genjutsu fondled. Kakashi is sort of like Hiruzen's case where he has a massive arsenal with some answers to Itachi, but it really depends on just how much of the heavy lifting you feel he did during the final few fights during the War Arc. I think he's got relative, if not superior speed, given he fights directly alongside KCM Naruto and assists the others, but Itachi's Mangekyo still pose a very real threat. I'm a bit split on this round, personally. Hokage Naruto wins. No discussion. The guy is fucking nuts.

A lot of characters who are geniuses do this Minato kakashi Hiruzen orochimaru sasuke Nagato etc. imo either itachi or Nagato does it the best itachi because he is dying and using MS. Or Nagato because he is using eyes that aren’t his and the RINNEGAN at that so even being uzumaki the chakra tax must be insane requiring incredible chakra control and finesse (Nagato being a prodigy genius who learned all 5 chakra natures at a young age made the best of the rinnegan ) obito with ALL his GIVEN HAX couldn’t handle 2 rinnegan as a full ADULT let that sink in. Kakashi is also extremely good at chakra control as he used this to extreme as well when he had a sharingan (kakashi is also a prodigy/genius) unlike obito

Itachi has better combat speed feats than Minato. 1)Naruto explicitly stated twice that he doesn't hold back against edos. 2)Itachi was on autopilot 3)he only had 3t activated 4)he parried Bee's sword dance 5)he dodged a simultaneous attack from behind without even looking. This doesn't get emphasized enough. 6)he matched the strength and speed of KCM and sages without any amps. 7)he blindsided Bee, something Minato couldn't do against a weaker Bee. 8)he outmaneuvered Naruto and Bee with his combat speed alone, again something Minato couldn't do against lesser opponents. Unironically enough, Itachi is better at blindsides than Minato, and he doesn't even need FTG.

[@ThunderGodTG]

So my main qualms when people say Itachi = Naruto, and mind you I do agree this is autopilot base Sharingan Itachi is that Naruto is KCM is not going Full speed all the time in the war and in this specific instance he actually wants to question Itachi. So there is a bit of consistency to say this wouldn’t be Full Speed KCM. Now I think Itachi does scale above with MS/MS techniques but more so noting my qualms with people saying that. His MS being objectively above is also very consistent with what you outlined. This is also predicated on Minato vs KCM1 I have minato above pretty firmly so that’s also my main contention. Jonnin Minato, Jonnin Raikage, and Bee at that stage only scale to each other they can’t be linked to any other stages imo. Although again does also depend on how you interpret the fight between them.

[@brandonbrown5020]

I enjoyed the video. You brought up some interesting arguments that I haven't heard before, particularly in the Minato section. I hope that we have a chance to discuss Naruto at some point. Personally, I'm of the opinion that Sasuke did legitimately break out of the Tsukuyomi due to Black Zetsu's statements in chapter 388 and the data book page that you featured in the video. Both Black Zetsu and Itachi state that Sasuke broke through it. Black Zetsu even dispels the misconception that an ordinary sharingan cannot defeat the mangekyo and explains that a pebble can beat a shuriken if the person throwing it is an "adept". I think the data book supports this interpretation because it also states that Sasuke defeated the Mangekyo while referencing his mastery of Sharingan, which is analogous to the skill component that black Zetsu mentions in chapter 388. I don't think the databook is questioning how Sasuke broke out. The part that says" Is it because of his deep hatred of his brother" seems to be a continuation of the idea brought up in the line above which says "Sasuke is driven into an eternal hell created by the mangekyo sharingan..." That line ends in an ellipsis which indicates the suspension of an idea. I think the question was simply following up on that idea. ( Also, Itachi could have spread the "Mangekyo beats regular Sharingan" narrative in order to encourage Sasuke to grow stronger or he could have been misinformed because Itachi also believed that you needed the mangekyo to control the Ninetails but both Obito and Madara control it with normal Sharingan) This isn't canon but thought that I'd also mention that in the new story for Storm Connections Toneri states that Nagato was caught off guard by Itachi.

[@ThunderGodTG]

I actually this is a super fair interpretation of that scene, I will say I do think the MS just generally outclasses the MS but I can def see a case for the Tsukoyomi point.

[@julioangeloLAWOD]

This is not a win condition for itachi against minato though but i can imagine a very interesting fight sequence between them. These 2 are the smartest shinobis in the entire naruto universe. Itachi knows he has one hit attacks that could kill minato but he has to come up with a way to land a strike and it is not an easy task to land even a single strike. itachi would have a better idea of minatos arsenal because he is the hokage and being famous means everyone knows or atleast has an idea of your fighting style. But for minato the most obvious thing he knows is to avoid eye contact against an uchiha. They do a little warm up fight with taijutsu and they trade blows a bit but as soon as minato throws his kunai to try and teleport itachi deflects them so he wouldn't be able to teleport to where he wants to. itachi would strategically derail one of the kunais and predicted where minato is teleporting and tried to prefire the location with amaterasu but minato is just too fast to land a direct hit at the same time. Both of them are trying to figure how to land a hit and traded blows. Its like a fast pased chess, one of the kunai got close enough and itachi seemed to be caught off guard as minato gets very close with a rasengan but it was a bait as Itachi uses ribcage to defend and tries to stab minato with the totsuka blade but minato is still able to react by a very small margin. itachi would simultaneously deflect/redirect minatos shuriken, fire amaterasu and swing totsuka with the ribcage but at this point itachi knew this was his best shot when he still couldn't catch minato he knew he couldn't win. as the fight goes on minato noticed that itachis movement becomes more dull. Itachi is slowly feeling the drawbacks of mangekyo. Itachi seemed to be catching his breath. Minato uses this opportunity to throw a multiple kunais at itachi and surprisingly itachi failed to deflect some of them, minato uses shadow clone and tries to break itachis ribcage with multiple odama rasengan, itachi would try to swing totsuka but only gets one clone he gets hit multiple times and couldn't keep the ribcage as the symptoms of his illness starts to emerge. At this point minato, seizes the opportunity to land a fatal blow.

Tsukyomi finishes Minato off

For hiruzen I feel like you completely ignore some of his most pertinent techniques - namely bringer of darkness (implied to be known) and fighting by smell (explicit). I don’t think that locks in a hiruzen victory, but IMO it’s clearly his best shot against any Uchiha in a 1v1.

34:33 basic kunai and basic rasengans...Why can't a rasengans break through a susano? You said basic but Minato just like Jiraya and Naruto can make them bigger. Rasengan's can be as strong as the amount of chakra you put in them. It honestly felt like you were downplaying the jutsu by mentioning kunai right before. They are in no way comparable. Love your channel though just wanted to point out this issue I had. Also oneshot Minato's incomplete rasengan is pretty impressive considering we're talking about now Hokage Minato with access to sage mode if you want to go that far.

Even then an Odama Rasengan didn’t break through a Base Ribcage, The Raikage couldn’t just shatter Sasuke’s Ribcage who is somewhat comparable to Tsunade in strength. Is it possible? Sure but we just haven’t seen evidence Minato’s Rasengan is Susanoo shattering level is more so what it is. As far as the one shot I got a solo vid on it so I don’t gotta repeat my thoughts. Appreciate the love and critique I’ll factor this in to future stuff and what I should address👌🏻

Don't forget nagato wasn't mobile enough . Since hanzo damaged his legs. So nagato was never at full speed

I think I got a good idea for a video bro

​​​​​​​​@@ThunderGodTG​ my idea was a part 1 vid about a hypothetical scenario where rock lee healed earlier and was able to leave with the sasuke retrieval squad from the start. How would that affect the way shikamaru arranges their team formation, the ways him being there could change any of the encounters they have with the sound four prior to kimimaro's appearance, and if the outcome of the mission would change or not. I thought this might be an interesting discussion because we do have showings from Lee in that arc and I wanted to consider when he might use his medicine, or if he can access his gates at that point. It's reasonable to think that he is likely a bit nerfed in that arc and since he doesn't use them against Kimimaro he might be discouraged or even unable to use the gates in general It's possible someone could have done a similar video by now but I thought it might be cool if not

[@ThunderGodTG]

I like that a lot actually that’s really good!I’m gonna go ahead and mark that down! Thank you for the idea!
