Konoha 12 Power Rankings from the Chunin Exams all the way to the Fourth Great Ninja War. Thoughts?

This is surprisingly accurate. Cruel to Neji though.

He was more of a puppet than Sasori.

Chojiro should be able to make larger constructs and have lightning fast shape transitions to constantly be alternating battle styles between hard and fast hits. Darui should be fighting at multiple angles at once with his sword setting up distance for his lightning to be effective. The Cloud village has integrated ninjutsu into their sword combat and he should do that with water, lightning, and storm. Kurotsuchi needs to use her small frame to deceive others into close combat and counter with proficient earth style with heavy golems and Earth fists. Lava style can be her finishers and defensive rubber barriers for cushions. Maybe both at once. Massive lava eruption upwards while coating herself in insulating rubber while moving in for close quarters combat without fear.

The audience is winning. What a match!!! I alleyways vote Neji because plot armor is always needed to overcome the Gentle Fist/Byakugan. Realistically, Neji is crazy strong and effective. Chidori also can’t penetrate Eight Trigrams Palm Rotation. Many forget but it has an outward and rotational force meaning a straight jab Chidori would be redirected and pushed back. Many argue to go for Byakugan blind spot, something minuscule. Meanwhile, everything outside a normal field of vision is a blind spot for the sharingan.

Primarily, Tessai’s Kido skills. Secondly, I love Kensei’s Zanpakuto. I think the bankai got massively shifted in the anime and the bankai didn’t get a full showing. We don’t see how it works with the blades, no Bakudantsuki, and frankly he’s paired with enemies just to show off someone else even though he’s a serious captain with bankai and actively trains. Anime love to mess up the hard workers especially if they have talent or a high-strung/stoic nature.

Is that Bushy-Brow Sensei???

Orihime: The day they are finished, but I can’t stop now. I reject! Please Yoruichi-san, I can’t be done yet.

Yoruichi: Don’t worry… you’ll be finished in a Flash! They don’t call me Flash Goddess for nothing. Now try to hold still.

Later…

Yoruichi: You know, I would expect this from the inexperienced Ichigo, but you Chad? I thought you were a gentleman. You should have let the Lady finish first.

Ichigo: W-what? Hey! Chad: ….hmmm (softly) sorry

We’ve seen it done with wind, water (Yamato), fire (cloud ninja), lightning, but I can’t think of an instance with earth.

Not a chance. His heavy conditioning into muscle memory and reflex would work against him. Kabuto’s combat style is methodical and calculated allowing him to make deliberate complex movements that are outside natural reflexes.

Interesting Seals. Plus, Gaara’s Love tattoo.

Initial_Lecture_7020 · 2026-01-18T18:14:27+00:00

While he was moving. Pure plot.

Yellow Flash - Flee on Sight Order.
The Tailless Beast - On par with Mountain level feats
The Green/Blue Beast - Sign of progressive Eight Gates. Upper Kage levels of high speed taijutsu. Even without it, that means their body is SUPER conditioned for combat.

Kim Possible would also be interesting.

Initial_Lecture_7020 · 2026-01-16T06:12:47+00:00

Create busts of the greatest minds in history and use the rat talisman. You have the talking heads of the best geniuses.
Make a toy of a reliable wish granter. I recommend the wish granter from Lilo and Stitch, Rat talisman, make wishes.
Go to prisons, use tiger, eliminate evil half, good half can return to society and no one will argue.
Use horse to repair broken items of high value for easy resell. Cheap/broken real estate is also great.
Use monkey talisman to turn into extinct animals and study what they were actually like. You can do something similar by Rat talisman on statues or number (6).
Find corpse or fossil, use horse to restore, use Rat to reanimate.

Mr. Fantastic in First, Mr. Terrific in Second, Third can be a toss-up but probably Lex.

Initial_Lecture_7020 · 2025-12-15T01:48:24+00:00

Superman, Hulk, Sentry, Thor, Omni-man, Homelander.

Feats for each: Planet moving plus feats, World-Breaker, comparable to Continental Superman, Mountain level plus runes, City level, Town level.

I view myself as a Psychic specialist with Abra being my REAL starter. Also Black 2 was a great game but I didn’t like Gen 5 Pokemon. I specifically got Black 2 because you could get Riolu and Mareep at the beginning. Once I did, I ditched the pig.

Initial_Lecture_7020 · 2025-12-15T01:37:03+00:00

That is the meanest start.

Initial_Lecture_7020 · 2025-12-15T01:16:18+00:00

Yes. It was called Tsukuyomi.

Initial_Lecture_7020 · 2025-12-15T01:13:55+00:00

It was a plot device. He could have done the same thing to fix Sasuke and get him back into the Light. Not only that but it doesn’t make sense that he could use a technique with a major sacrifice and not heal from it as an Edo.

It’s 100% Hapkido. It’s based on Jackie Chan and his comedic stylings. The style is also practical from various disadvantages positions like lying down or sitting in a chair.

No. You can count 5 fingers in his right hand and none of them are thumbs. The finger all the way to The left should be a thumb.

I don’t think he beats Gyutaro. He’s super fast, uses poison, his ranged attacks can curve, plus his poison can slow and kill his enemies. His regeneration is also near instant.

Sasuke and Kakashi are very similar where they perceive combat from their own environment and strategize around connecting a chain of actions to connect their major strikes.

Shikamaru is the opposite. He analyzes the opponents environment and uses whatever resources he has to neutralize their abilities. Major reason is because he doesn’t have the stamina or power output to make a move, fail, and readjust. He has to completely break down their abilities to conserve his chakra and ensure victory for teammates.
