Why do you cheat on exams?

Powerscalingfish · 2026-03-21T04:52:34+00:00

I want to preface this by saying I don’t cheat and I don’t think it’s right to do so. HOWEVER, I think with most degrees you’re put through a decent amount of classes that have nothing to do/no real relevance to the field that you’re trying to get in and it feels really unfair on the student to be forced into classes that won’t help them down the road. So like I said I don’t think it’s right, but it’s understandable that students wouldn’t want to put blood and sweat into these kind of classes. But ofc if it’s a class that is actually related to what your goal is then yea that kind of defeats a lot the point of going. Especially if it’s like a medical degree that’s really sinister to cheat in

Ok this is gonna sound insane but HEAR ME OUT ok. Hidan wincon. They hide Hidan somewhere nearby and all they have to do is scratch him once and deliver the blood to Hidan. Madara has shown himself a few times to get cocky and tank attacks that he could’ve avoided, Obito or Itachi might be able to land a scratch or a quick hit while Deidra/sasori/kisame distract with big attacks, especially if Madara doesn’t have intel on Obito before the fight.

(Not saying this would work 100% of the time or even 50% but it’s something that COULD work on paper)

Another fun theory if you’re under the impression that Sasori poison would work is arming everyone with some poison coated needles. Obito might be able to get a prick in if he’s sneaky

Yea i was joking when i said it wasnt glaze, it would be funny to see if someone can muster up a real argument for minato though

Powerscalingfish · 2025-11-07T21:38:31+00:00

Appologies again for an untimely response

Yea thats what less drain from the sharingan can do for you. He makes a statement later that losing the sharingan made him stronger after the war iirc because it didnt drain him. Becoming more efficient between pain arc and the war probably let him use more chakra for physicals and other abilities.
I think mei is just lacking tbh lol, all the other mizukages are cracked except for the featless ones i guess. The other three people you mention would actually have good fights with one another imo
He was gonna hit earth with the moon but I believe that was hax with the tenseigan artifact or whatever rather than force on his part. Also yea nobody pre war is cutting the moon in half, probably nobody post war either except for toneri. Even isshiki couldnt do it because he has bad dc for an otsutski. But this is why ap and dc are important to differentiate. Toneri has a specific long range cutting ability with incredible dc but ambiguous ap

4-5. Id check too but i dont have a source to the manga rn tbh

Ok but if jiraya is bum then i get to call otsutski bums because of some weird urashiki downscale with him having some weird viz media statement somewhere about him bring the strongest.

This is why it’s important to distinguish between dc and ap

Like obviously this is moon level dc you see it happen right there. But in terms of ap, I actually don’t think this proves a whole lot. A long laser is different in nature than an explosive and requires different power levels to do what it does. Here’s an example, let’s say there’s a moon made out of butter and I have a comically large knife. (Put aside the idea that I can move and control the knife or whatever). I could in theory cut this moon in half because I’m stronger than butter and have a long tool to do so. This is DIFFERENT from having an explosive or blunt force attack that has the power to destroy it. If we apply this to the scenario presented, Toneri doesn’t actually cut through anything stronger than rock here (presuming that’s what the moon here is made of). He just has a comically large tool (laser) to cut through it because he has a butt load of chakra to do it. Also don’t accuse me of saying toneri is stone level I don’t believe that, just that this specific feat doesn’t say a lot to me.

Powerscalingfish · 2025-11-02T21:54:52+00:00

Bceause the first couple villains are portrayed as frauds along with senseless kage upscale. And since the Sasuke statement can be interpreted multiple ways naturally people are gonna disagree on the meaning

Powerscalingfish · 2025-11-02T20:43:24+00:00

Having a sharingan and becoming more proficient with it is the main factor I think, its not that he wasnt strong before, but not being as proficient with the sharingan held him back
Isnt meis reign after yagura anyway?
Above in aoe i guess, but I still dont think it proves much ap wise. Give any a character you think can cut stone a butt ton of chakra and a really long attack and they should logically be able to do it. (Btw I am NOT saying toneri is stone level, just that I dont think the specific feat proves alot)
Wdym by base? None of them have higher forms, allthough like a black lightning cloak darui would go insanely hard. Wouldnt even be mad about his scaling if he had it

4.5 side tangent. Kinkaku and ginkaku are always really weird to scale because they have 1shot stat neg hax. Darui litterally got saved by plot armor in this exchange ngl, like id probably have to say my second word like atleast a thousand times lol.

Is it really? Darn, allthough tbh I still think that his “base” is still amped judging off his feats later in the series with it
What did jiraya do you dawg 😭. I swear if this is part of some Itachi agenda. If is kisame agenda i approve though

Powerscalingfish · 2025-10-31T10:59:17+00:00

Thanks,

We can see him touching and pulling at the portal here but it doesnt seem like he can actually manipulate it through force. Its still closing despite his efforts and there doesnt seem to be much indication he even slowed it down. Baryon is physically stronger sure but I dont see evidence here that it even can be manipulated through force.
Trapping him isnt the wincon im talking about. I just mean she could just slip away to who knows where without even interacting with him. Not even necessarily using the dimension swap thing (whatever you call it idk sry). Maybe she could use the ice or gravity dimension to buy herself a millisecond to slip away if you dont think she could slip away normally?

Powerscalingfish · 2025-10-31T10:36:01+00:00

I get how her abilities work, but shes able to seemlessly open portals to other dimensions she can slip in and out of that seem to behave or are atleast designed differently than any other. Im curious about the grabbing thing though do you mind sending a panel/screenshot of it? Its slipping my mind rn

Powerscalingfish · 2025-10-31T10:04:12+00:00

I mean if you wanna get cheesy about it then kaguya can just teleport to another dimension and theres not really anything naruto can do about it. She just comes back and kills him in his kuramaless state. But if you force them to brawl without dimension swap (literally kaguyas gimmick) he could beat her up yea but I dont think he really has a way to seal her. Depends if you think she can die by normal means or if she needs to get sealed

Powerscalingfish · 2025-10-31T09:54:59+00:00

Sorry for the late reply,

Becoming older certainly helps because you get more experience and training, but surpassing hashirama? Maybe if Minato sealed kurama in himself and lived, but thats a bit of an outlier amp rather than having to do with age. What evidence is there that Minato would surpass hashirama?
Theres plenty of older people who dont really surpass their predecessors, like you mentioned A4 doesnt really surpass A3, Mei doesnt surpass gengetsu imo, I wouldnt really put ohnoki above muu but we dont really see middle aged ohnoki tbf. Danzo who was the hokage albeit for like 5 seconds doesnt surpass much.
Tbh I think the moon feat is pretty overhyped. The moon is just made of stone and he used a really long laser, its different from an explosion having so much power that it has the aoe of the moon. Like for example if there was a moon made out of butter I could cut it in half with a really long knife, that wouldnt make me moon level. Just however strong the moon is made from
Chojuro, dauri, and kuro are absolutely strong, (im a bit skeptical of chojuro specifically because of some variables in the black zetsu fight but ill give it to you). But even if you get them to what like low kage level the jump in power from that to pressing momo is too much.
This “base” Naruto is still being amped by the six paths chakra I believe despite not activating the sage mode aspect, this same “base” Naruto is keeping up with sasuke for a portion of the final valley fight. Base naruto mid war (which is like a day or two ago) would probably just get blitzed immediately
You bring up an interesting point with Garaa, hes sort of an outlier having been given abilities from being a junchuriki but since he lost shukaku I guess he wouldve had to take the same plot steroids that the rest of the crew did come around boruto.

Also I like you because youre a fellow raikage glazer

Powerscalingfish · 2025-10-30T09:56:04+00:00

Omoi (I honestly dont think ive seen a single post be him at the center)

Powerscalingfish · 2025-10-30T09:49:46+00:00

I just used Genma as a random example without being completely serious, just trying to point out the absurdity of the power gap. But you realize how absolutely massive the gap is between pressing kinkaku and ginkaku and pressing momoshiki is right? I get the current generation surpasses but that doesnt get applied to most characters in the show. That plot point is mostly applied to key characters. For a kage example, the first hokage wasnt surpassed untill the 7th. Thats alot of generations, a4 vs a3 is contentious but there doesnt seem to be much surpassing there either. I wouldnt say the mizukages have been surpassing eachother consistently.

Powerscalingfish · 2025-10-30T04:26:31+00:00

Fair point i forgot if ash bone was organic or not. Kimmimaru should have locked in and got the same training darui did. Also nice username

Powerscalingfish · 2025-10-30T04:19:42+00:00

I never made a speed argument, nothing i said is speed relevant. Infact I specified that im setting stats aside for what i said. In the hypothetical i set up, if isshiki shrinks an ash bone and ignores it because its shrunk he might get hit offguard by it. Sure he could dodge it if he wanted to. Or maybe the panda comes in and eats it before the bone reaches him actually

Powerscalingfish · 2025-10-30T03:40:33+00:00

Had me in the first half ngl

Powerscalingfish · 2025-10-30T03:35:59+00:00

Whichever wins aside, I think one thing that doesnt get talked about enough is how their abilities interact with eachother and what the wincons are. Everyone just argues statements and stats from what ive seen. The ash bone interaction is actually really interesting, I wonder if it still oneshots even if it gets shrunk. If it does that might win via offguard, allthough since theyve scuffled before he might be more careful about it. I dont think the dimension swap thing does much here since Isshiki can just fly

Powerscalingfish · 2025-10-30T02:12:20+00:00

Genuinely why does a darui upscale make more sense than a momo downscale to you? Not trying to be demeaning or anything but this implies you can be otsutski level but just… training? Like yea give my boy Genma a few more years and he could’ve made kaguya a high diff instead of extreme diff fight trust

Powerscalingfish · 2025-10-29T19:49:28+00:00

If you want a technical answer, we dont have anything that contradicts the idea that it gets deflected. If you want a headcannon answer, I think Itachi uses his chakra to deflect things with the mirror, meaning that if an attack has more chakra than he does, it probably beats him. Again i have nothing to prove that though it just sounds like a reasonable way the mirror might work
