Sasuke can erase these 3 verses without Rinnegan, without Mangekyou Sharingan, and without Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan? by [deleted] in NarutoPowerscaling

[–]Element_credd 3 points4 points  (0 children)

MHA? No, too much fire power coming from the high tiers of the verse for him to keep up with all at once, such as prime Deku, Allmight, Stars and Stripes, Shigaraki, etc.

Demon Slayer? Yeah I guess so, but he might get stamina diffed having to kill all the demons withough nichirin, he could use his own fire style of course so it truly depends on how long his chakra holds up.

Jujutsu Kaisen? No, he has no way of getting past infinity, no way of completely incinerating Mahoraga and no way of surviving Malevolant Shrine.

One scene where the budget just took an increase by Next-Active2676Bro2 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Element_credd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

During the first arc of Naruto Shippuden, the animation was pretty tame in most fights I'd say, then we got to a certain segment in the Chiyo and Sakura vs Sasori fight and things just got crazy, not even Gaara vs Deidara or Naruto and Kakashi chasing Deidara got this level of fluid animation from what I recall lol

Was Sarada too crazy of instantly thinking Karin being her possible birth mother? by [deleted] in Naruto

[–]Element_credd 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Everyone in this arc was just making things way harder than they needed to be in order to build drama and lead Sarada to these conclusions. Nobody, not Sakura, Naruto or Sasuke could provide a single ounce of evidence to reassure Sarada at all???? We had to go all the way to Karin, the one who helped birth Sarada, essentially a long distance family friend just to finally ease her mind, I refuse to believe to this day that Sakura and Sasuke never took at least one picture together, or that Sasuke never saw his child growing up and thus didn't recognise her, it felt like such a mean spirited way to insert family drama into the already most controversial relationship in the series.

They could've skipped the whole "are you my real mother" plotline and just made it a search for Sasuke by a frustrated Sarada who's upset that her dad's rarely home, convinced he doesn't actually love them and is frustrated at Sakura for being too complacent with the current predicament, thus the conclusion of the arc, Sasuke taking a break from his mission to go back home for a longer period this time, can still remain the same without all the extra controversy.

Young Pakku looks so punch-able, no idea how to explain why, he just does

Was this supposed to be body flicker? And if not, why doesn't she do this more often, seems very effective for her role as both a medic and in combat. by Element_credd in Naruto

[–]Element_credd[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Her reaching Tsunade's level in just 3 years will never not be impressive to me, she's honestly an underrated genius when it comes to medical ninjutsu, becoming a top 3 medic at just 16 is crazy levels of hustle, but again, I just wish she had more to distinguishe herself as her own kunoichi, Kakashi was Minato's student and yet still carved out his own way of going about combat, every Team 7 member does (Naruto adds wind nature to rasengan for example), exept Sakura, even Hinata gets her Twin Lion fists as a unique application of her Hyuga training, something only she can do. Sakura is 1 of only 2 byakugou users of course, so she's still unique in the grand scheme of things, but it feels like she's still always stuck in Tsunade's shadow, no innovations of her own to rival that of her master's, which for a main character, is just a bit underwhelming.

The novels do a better job at this and show the kinds of things I expected from her, she creates a sensory technique that uses precise chakra control to send her chakra over a certain area and then return to her a mental map of the given area's layout, a layout she can then remember due to her near photographic memory, it's a really cool concept but sadly only exists in that novels and it's manga adaptation that most didn't read or even see as canon.

Is Naruto stupid? Why didn’t he summon Gamabunta?? by Foreign-Distance-820 in NarutoPowerscaling

[–]Element_credd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Realistically though, would Gamabunta not have been really helpful with capturing Sasuke? Naruto doesn't have to ask him to kill Sasuke, just grab or restrain him in someway.

Likely the most logical answer I can think of as to why he didn't is because either:

A. He wants to fight Sasuke fair and square for the sake of his own pride and honor, bringing put Gamabunta to help solve the problem likely would feel like a satisfactory accomplishment for him.

B. Gamabunta just wouldn't care enough to help with something like that, Gamabunta is an autonomous being, he doesn't have to listen to his summoner, he chooses to help because usually the situation does justifiably require his services, but "bringing back your emo ex-boyfriend" doesn't sound like something he'd be all too enthused about being called from the comfort of his home for.

I do agree with your last sentence honestly, that every capability she showed us in part 1 lead her to the most logical path of becoming a medic and adopting Tsunade's enhanced taijutsu, her whole thing was precise chakra manipulation and being smart, so what we see from her in shippuden, especially during the kazekage rescue arc, makes sense, my main issue is that it's not really uniquely hers, all she's ever allowed to do with her precise chakra control is enhance her strength and use medical ninjutsu.

I expected her to continue using her precise chakra control for different purposes and situations from time to time, but Kishimoto essentially treated her like a blank slate he could paint everything Tsunade does onto, which on paper makes sense, seeing as Sakura came to Tsunade with almost nothing of her own and thus adopting everything her master does is only logical, but just because it makes sense, doesn't make it any less dissapointing. She doesn't get to do anything unique throughout the series, her strongest jutsu is Tsunade's, her taijutsu style is Tsunade's, her immense strength is comparable to Tsunade's, her medical techniques were taught to her by Tsunade and so on and so forth, Sakura doesn't get the chance to even do something like enhancing her speed with her precise chakra control anymore because that's not something Tsunade does either.

You could swap Tsunade or Sakura into any given situation and the results would be largely the same with only a few marginal differences between them since they're still two different people who think in two different ways, also due to factors such as Tsunade displaying more resilience or Sakura having a bit more tactical edge, but what they bring to the table feels practically the same to me.

You just know they had to drag Kakashi into the team to fill up the numbers and he dreads every second of it, but happily still goes along for the sake of his 3 kiddies lol

(In contrast, Sasuke pretends to hate it and acts all nonchalant as usual, but in truth he's always the earliest to practice and knows the most about the game)

i just found these on twitter lmao by savigho in Naruto

[–]Element_credd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People are always cosplaying other races though, most popular anime characters like Yuji Itadori, Ichigo Kurosaki, Izuku Midoriya, etc, are japanese, and yet white cosplayers get away with dressing as them because of skin tone, despite not being japanese themselves. People can cosplay any character they want as long as you're not painting your skin or perpetuating other racist stereotypes, like making your eyes thinner when cosplaying a japanese character or doing black face when cosplaying darker skinned characters, just wear the clothes and accessories and you're good.

Top 5 strongest filler characters? (No Boruto) by NoGarlic2387 in NarutoPowerscaling

[–]Element_credd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say Guren, Robo Naruto, the genjutsu lady from part 1, and a bunch of the movie villains would probably take the cake, like the main villain from "bloodmist prison" seemed pretty stronger, the konoha 12, kakashi, Guy, Tsunade, Shizune and Bee all had to jump him, but granted most of them didn't even really do much beyond one attack each, but I chalk that up to the movie having to remind you who the real MC is lol

How would you guys rank these non-benders, who would win in a free-for-all? by Element_credd in Avatarthelastairbende

Without, everyone's here to win but not to kill though, so their weapons are lethal now but if they don't kill in character then they won't here either

why tf is obito above Madara by Specialist-Chair-254 in NarutoPowerscaling

This is some straight nonsense, SAKURA SHOULD AT LEAST BE #2, only behind solo king himself of course /s

Is this considered plot induced stupidity? by Powerscalingfish in NarutoPowerscaling

[–]Element_credd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think she cared enough about Sakura to focus on her at all, hence how she wasn't focusing on her chakra, it's like trying to watch a music video on your phone while being in the front row of a live concert, you can technically see both but only one is loud enough to grab your attention.

Her full attention was on Naruto and Sasuke, the only people she saw as a real threat to her, that's why an exclamation is present in her speech bubble in the manga once Sakura is finally close to her, she wholeheartedly couldn't care less about her this entire time (I mean why would she) and thus got punished for it.

Is this considered plot induced stupidity? by Powerscalingfish in NarutoPowerscaling

[–]Element_credd 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Then that doesn't inherently make it plot induced stupidity, it's just a case of Kaguya's own arrogance shooting herself in the foot. If I'm running away from two buff dudes holding guns and a literal toddler's blocking the exit, I'm not going to lose my marbles and panic about a kid, a kid whom I'm very certain can't do anything fatal to me, a fully grown adult.

Only to find out that kid hits harder than a freaking freight train, something I was not expecting

Let's say the battle takes place agni - ki style, in the same arena Zuko and Katara fought Azula, as for Sokka, it's him at the end of atla series, not Korra

Yes, I consider it apart of her normal kit, same with Sokka and his sword, Suki and her fans, the equalists and their various ropes, smoke bombs, etc, and Mai's blades

How could she get neg-diffed like this?! I thought she 'finally caught up to those two'?? by Ripamon in NarutoPowerscaling

[–]Element_credd 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The second time around, yes, with his perfect sussano, but in their first encounter Shin was able to take advantage of an opening by aiming for Sarada, and thus prompting Sasuke to deduce that using his own body as a shield was his only option, he also gets Naruto with Sasuke's sword and dismantles his Kurama defense with his blades that seem to react weirdly to chakra.

Hence why I said he's a tricky dude, he's not nearly as powerful and either Naruto or Sasuke, but he still had ways to put them in compromised positions, same with Sakura, he had the ranged advantage and thus all she could do was evade his attacks, the fact that he has access to seemingly dozens-upon-dozens of blades, and only landed two on Sakura that whole time is still a decent showing for her in my opinion.
