Given how intense the training Might Guy put them through honestly without his heart Guy was pretty much next to Danzo and the Blood Mist Village training the closest thing to Spartan training. Guy had to know Neji and Lee were possibly gonna fight in the Chunin exams in character Neji and Lee would both know they cannot hold back though I am 90-95% sure if Lee makes it to 5 Gates Neji is royally screwed I mean weightless Lee is one thing but 5 Gates Lee speed blitz Neji and beats him bloody. The only way Neji can win in like 1-2/10 scenarios is if he manages to chakra block Lee's points to the point Lee cannot use the gates though for all I know activating the Gates themselves could just be a repeat of what Naruto did to Neji so theres that

In relation to the Drunken Fist, one could say Lee is actually getting stronger via a shift in his mental energies which composes his chakra. Gaara's automatic sand does actually seem like it cannot move when he is paralyzed. Momoshiki gripped him in his hair then knocked him out without his sand responding when they went to rescue Naruto. The databooks typically do not list hand seals for jutsu, though the Raikiri and Chidori both eventually need none, so it is indeed a moot point regardless. (The highlighted symbols are the jutsu catagories, not the seals.) Naruto was able to intercept Gaara and shield his toads from the sand attacks somewhat even before his mental amplification, though some would just say Gaara was toying with him.

Naruto was significantly mentally strengthened against Neji, particularly just before their clash with the rotation. Indeed, without that mental boost from the Hokage statements, he would have been defeated by Neji before their final clash. However, it was evident that he was even more mentally fortified when he summoned the 2,000 clones and Gamabunta, as those are what I consider protective amps. Either way he was mental amped vs neji.

Specially since Sasuke stamina is lower than lees. He’ll tire out faster. And further range Sasuke doesn’t have hard hitting jutsu either. Fireball is a joke and never kills anyone. Only Madara used it effectively. Chidori is deadly but why would neji let Sasuke charge up? Neji uses shuriken shown against Naruto. And even if Sasuke manages to launch forward towards neji, neji can just dodge it. Dude dodged kidomarus arrow that is much faster. Then proceeds to poke Sasuke.

He definitely is reacting to a human running straight at him with the speed of his teammate who he washes everytime. Rotation isn’t even needed.

It is manga-cannon that he can handle everything up to 4th Gate Lee WITHOUT the Byakugan, as shown when he was observing Lee's fight with Gaara, so he's not overwhelming Neji with speed, ever. And Chidori is NOT getting through Rotation. It pulverized Naruto into the ground despite the Kyubi energy protecting him, and later on, it deflected the ENTIRE JUUBI ARM which was like the size of a MOUNTAIN. Sasuke is literally getting crushed beyond regocnition if he dares to approach Rotation with Chidori alone. Sasuke is literally obliterated in Part 1 against Neji. The w ankery for Sasuke nauseating.

As far as Chidori. Keep in mind precision is needed. An interference of chakra that is rotating will not allow Sasuke to get the sure hit KO. We’ve actually seen this with Kidomaru. Unlike Sasuke HE had far more experience with a piercing ability that regardless of what anyone thinks had more destructive power off of feats than THIS Sasukes Chidori AND it was also amped by level 2 curse mark. It too was then increased by a slingshot/bow but It failed to hit its Mark by Neji only emitting a small amount of chakra. Neji didn’t get in a full rotation against Naruto. Why is this never stated? Neji’s own insistence to start it followed by the immediate clash suggests it was released late. Narratively makes sense. Before he was able to clash with Naruto, and he’s prepared to do so again, but he realizes that with each step Narutos taking the chakra itself is becoming a force. That’s why he released it late he was prepared for another Taijutsu skirmish. Neji would have more time against Sasuke.
@allmight32212 ай бұрын
@cunningfox7838 indeed, I've created a detailed video on this topic for the channel, regarding on everything about rotation vs chidori. The reality is that Neji's speed far surpasses Sasuke's, rendering rotation unnecessary for a direct Chidori, particularly one as sluggish as the one used during the exams. In the preliminaries, Neji would overpower Sasuke, not to mention in the finals. Neji's speed is even greater than Lee's at the second gate. The first gate alone represents an entirely different level of speed, offering a true perception blitz level boost, unlike the Chidori. The latter, if judged solely on speed, is easily countered or avoided, as Lee suggests. Essentially, I'm suggesting that Lee without weights at the first gate would blitz Lee without weights, but Sasuke with a standard Chidori from the exams wouldn't blitz his base, non-Sharingan self with Chidori because it's slow enough to be easily countered or avoided. The Sharingan alters this, not by its blinding speed, but by preventing you from reacting in time. Regardless, it's refreshing to see someone who understands the manga well. I don't want to reveal too much since I'm creating content, but your comment compelled me to reply.

We have no metric to compare Kidomaru’s Bow to Chidori, while they’re both linear movement that Kidomaru scales no where. You’d have to prove one is inherently faster than the other and destructive power is just not relevant to the discussion. Why was Neji’s rotation weakened? We already see the ground is formed as it is with a complete rotation, you’d have display or prove Neji’s rotation is stronger and or faster than his initial spin. It also isn’t the main basis for Chidori > Rotation, which even if Neji can deflect or slightly throw off angle which is fair, to say he wouldn’t take damage is absurd, this all assuming Sasuke doesn’t just use it linearly and just forms it in the air or something.

Wouldn't rotation work better against Chidori than the sand defense? The sand ball is a stationary target allowing a steady surface to stab into. Rotation, however, is moving at high speed and most likely would smack Sasuke's hand out of the way. Though they are similar levels of defense they function very differently. Rotation vs Naruto's chakra aura is also different than a Chidori attack. a nebulous aura of chakra isn't a solid thing that can be struck away like someone's hand could be. That is just what makes sense to me. I think Sasuke could win in different ways but it wouldn't be a direct attack with chidori on rotation.

@@DavidLucian It’s not even close when you actually look at the evidence. Sasuke is only as fast as weightless Lee level and that’s with using 1st gate. Lee himself even admitted that he would need the gates to beat Neji, Guy states that Lee would need the speed of the “Reverse Lotus” to beat neji which requires the 3rd gate to even use, Neji wasn’t even phased by Lee until Lee opened to 4th gate where he activated his Byakugan in order to keep track of the fight. Neji takes interest at the mention of “Reverse Lotus” but he isn’t scared by it unlike 4th gate Lee awakening which forced him to activate his Byakugan to keep track of the fight. Given it took the 4th gate in order for Neji to even activate his Byakugan to keep track of Lee in the prelims we can deduce that Kyuubi Naruto was at the very least above 3rd gate level in speed and he never lost track of him and sasuke is only weightless Lee level in speed which neji can keep track of even without his Byakugan as shown in the prelims. Neji’s attack speed is roughly 4th gate level in speed and if sasuke already needs a sharingan to keep up with his own speed at weightless Lee level I don’t see how he’s gonna keep track of 4th gate speed with his sharingan if he already needs it at weightless Lee level. Neji’s speed was equal to Kyuubi Naruto both the manga and anime make this pretty clear especially the manga so that puts Neji atleast above 3rd gate level in movement speed however his own attack speed is even greater due to rotation training. Weightless Lee moves in slow motion to Neji so in all honesty neji can just grab the chidori and move it out of the way like itachi and Kakashi did, or more likely he’ll just dodge it because as deduced earlier Neji is faster.

It is incorrect to label Sasuke as a prodigy. Both Sasuke and Naruto have benefited from various plot devices and aids throughout their journeys, such as the Curse Mark, Orochimaru's assistance, plot conveniences, Itachi's intervention, and Tobi's help. Realistically, Sasuke would have been cooked by most of the Part One Genin during the Chunin Exams, with only a few exceptions like Sakura, Ino, Ten Ten, Choji, and possibly Shikamaru or Hinata. Sasuke has been saved numerous times and often receives assistance in his battles. For example, he was swiftly defeated by a significantly suppressed Rock Lee and nearly killed by him. In his base form, Sasuke is outmatched by many others. In contrast, true prodigies like Itachi and Madara are able to surpass high expectations even without additional enhancements.

Neji's deflects and Gaara's tanks... they are comparable but both have their own pros and cons and situations where it would be better to use one over the other... For example Gaara's would be better at stopping a physical attack like a speeding truck but Neji's would be better at blocking ninjutsu like a great fireball (in this example if the situations get reversed I believe Neji would get ran over and Gaara would be baked like he was in an oven)... Gaara's defense was penetrated by a highspeed focused piercing electric thrust ninjutsu and Neji's was with a highspeed piercing physical attack being an arrow from Kidomaru... Plus Neji can push chakra out his chakra points to avoid hits to vital spots like he did during Kidomaru fight so even if Sasuke was able to piece with Chidori it would be weaker after forcing it's way thru rotation and Neji would push it away from hitting his vital organs and with Sasuke's hand lodged in Neji's shoulder he'll be right where Neji wants him for a gentle fist barrage or 64 plams! Also Gaara's defense blocks his vision so he has no idea what the enemy is doing without making a sand eye which could be targeted and destroyed so he can't effectively plan to counter attack like Neji can...

What he can do but will do are different things, sasuke has never got hit by a shuriken in the history of the show lol hes the ninja tool god no glaze, people never mention his high iq ninja wire usage in every fight he had aside gaara whos immune, I mention this because neji cant catch him off guard, as for chidori he did it easily in the forest vs gaara and in the air vs naruto in the hospital, chunin exams was him literally feeling himself and showing off and trying to use the most momentum by having the highest distance since a idle gaara gave him that opportunity, but the most realistically situation I persomally see is sasuke wire trapping and baiting neji to use rotation then use a curse mark amp and decapitate him, its either take sasukes hand or take his loads of ninja tools in your neck, keep in mind one naruto punch knocked him out, sasuke has high resiliance sorry for the messy comment

You’re argument for Sasuke heavily revolves around just chidori. When has the chidori ever been successful at anything other than a finishing move? You act like Sasuke would just 1 shot with chidori, but even base Gaara gets hit by chidori and it wasn’t even a fatal wound. Chidori can also be countered by a simple substitution jutsu, like Deidara did. CM2 Kidoumaru’s arrows were many times faster than Sasuke with chidori, and Neji was still able to avoid fatal injuries, so it’s not as simple as “chidori, gg”. Sasuke has the CM but can’t use it, or he would be disqualified, as stated by Kakashi. But regardless, Neji doesn’t show much emotion and doesn’t even bother to activate byakugan when he witnesses CM Sasuke in the forest of death, yet Neji is blown away by Rock lee and activates byakugan when the 4th gate is opened. Sasuke is mainly a mid/close range fighter and Neji is far more potent up close. So to be fair, Sasuke would hit Neji with chidori and maybe take him by surprise his strings, but at some point Sasuke will get hit with gentle fist, losing the ability to use Ninjutsu. At that point Sasuke has no answer for byakugans near 360 vision, or rotation.

This first part makes no sense at all - Rasenshuriken never killed anybody so it’s not a good technique is the logic presented. It’s very much presented with Kakashi/Sasuke that Chidori / Raikiri is their ace with Kakashi not even thinking he can be hokage after losing the ability to use it in his novel. Gaara literally has an extra layer of defense on top of his skin that enabled him to eat hits from Gated Lee which Sasuke broke through on top of Gaara’s Sand. Stronger Neji fought Kidomaru who was low on chakra from a previous encounter with Raido & Genma you’d have to establish that arrow’s Speed & contrast it to Sasuke’s level, which doesn’t work since that Neji doesn’t scale to the one in the exams. Exams Neji doesn’t scale to that at all since we know he just objectively got stronger, to the point he can beat someone just stronger than Kyuubi Naruto. CM is irrelevant to this discussion since Sasuke would have been disqualified like you said but, Neji does call Sasuke “formidable” so that’s supreme cap. I don’t really care about the rest of this as I was pretty clear in the vid that Neji is just stronger overall where as Chidori is stronger than Neji. Just outright has higher assertions in terms of AP & Speed. Sasuke has Mid to Long range Ninjutsu to keep Neji back in the form of Fire style + wire shuriken combo’s I don’t disagree if Neji closes the gap he just wins, but this comment is inaccurate on top of just ignoring the nuance of the fight itself.

@ThunderGodTG You’re portraying chidori as if it’s the “end all, be all” in this fight, yet it’s never been depicted that way in the story at all. Gaara’s sand armor is irrelevant, Sasuke hit him in the shoulder with chidori, so he would’ve been fine regardless. Look at chapter 196, there’s no need to compare Sasuke’s speed to Kidoumarus arrow because common sense tells us that Sasuke has no feats that show he can cover that distance within even a fraction of the same time. There’s also no need for me to scale anything here. I’m referencing the fight with Kidoumaru to represent Neji’s general capabilities. Every ability Neji uses in that fight is an ability that any generic hyuuga can do. It’s not like Neji is using any new techniques that are different from what’s used in the chuunin exams. Sasuke can only use chidori twice without being paralyzed. So my point is, while you can say Neji will get hit by chidori, it wouldn’t finish him because he could still avoid fatal injuries using a combination of his Gentle fist abilities, similar to the kidoumaru fight. “Neji said Sasuke is formidable” Who cares? Actions speak louder than words. There’s a huge difference in Neji’s reaction to CM Sasuke compared to 5th gate Lee. Sasuke’s speed is irrelevant because it’s the same as base weightless Lee, and that’s not enough.

Sasuke literally pierced Gaara’s Sand armor wdym it’s irrelevant? Lee couldn’t even draw blood from Gaara but, it’s irrelevant for Sasuke? Sasuke also had an outside defense to break through and still performed the feat compared to Lee who even Gated couldn’t breach Gaara’s sand armor it’s not insignificant. Yeah I legit just asked for a way to display Kidomaru’s arrow speed and how that would relate to Sasuke at that time period. No shit it’d be faster than Chunin Exams, but Sasuke like Neji also just trains past that point even growing to the point he can do 3 Chidori in a day - does this on the day he fought Itachi & FV so no this doesn’t work at all, again not the same Neji. It’s so crazy how you used curse mark Sasuke as a feat for Neji and then when proven wrong it’s suddenly “who cares” especially when the character in question made the statement lmao idk just funny While I agree Base Sasuke’s Speed is = Lee his reactions are not nor is his Top Chidori Speed. The reactions are relevant as unless Sasuke’s close to Neji, Neji can’t just outright blitz him from a distance. Base Lee also just has faster travel speed than Neji which is what he uses when circling Gaara. Sasuke could run around the battlefield and Neji would never catch him unless he got Semi Close. I don’t have a problem with the Neji stance at all but, these arguments are not a good way to go about it.
@andrepayne4349Ай бұрын
@ThunderGodTG You make it sound like Gaara’s sand armor saved his life like it did against 5th gate Lee. The sand armor was irrelevant in Sasuke’s case because he was just hit once in the arm with chidori, so in that case he’s still surviving even without sand armor, which correlates to my argument about Neji surviving being hit with the chidori. Chidori is only a stronger tech strictly in terms of AP, but that doesn’t mean it’s a better tech overall. Chuunin exam Sasuke after training still loses to 5th gate Lee, and he would’ve lost to base Gaara too. Neji survives a clash with a kyuubi amped Naruto, who objectively has way more power than even CM Sasuke, so that’s plenty of proof that Neji can deal with Chidori. Also, I think the chidori’s speed never really matters. There’s plenty of times where base Naruto just clashes with it, so Neji’s rotation can do the same. I don’t understand what you’re confused about with Neji’s remark in the forest of death, but I’m comparing Neji’s reaction for CM Sasuke to 5th Lee. Again, you can see a huge difference. I think you’re argument falls apart with chidori being the main win condition because it requires Sasuke to be close, which is where Neji has the most advantage.

I interpret the Gamabunta summoning as part mental amp and Naruto squeezing out the dregs of Chakra he has left. After this point the only jutsu he uses is a transformation and then can't even get up after a headbutt and 2 haymakers. Sounds about right if Gamabunta's summoning was fueled by his own chakra. One of the themes in this arc specifically was Naruto learning to use Kyuubi chakra and just the eyes turning red for a small panel is too little of a visual indicator considering what we saw in the Neji fight and then a few minutes after this.

19:40 Upon review of chapter 104, Neji didn’t lose the clash. They canceled each other out. Naruto does burrow in the ground after, but Neji does repel the attack prior to that. Naruto simply had enough chakra to do something else. And I wouldn't put Sasuke's chidori above Naruto's cloak in terms of chakra potency and quantity. Neji would have less chakra he'd have to repel against Sasuke's chidori. I think Neji blocking chidori revolves around whether or not he can react to it rather than how powerful these attacks are.

@@Telarius It is evident that the reference is to Gated Lee, which is indisputable. Weightless Lee cannot be considered unparalleled in speed if Preliminary Neji, who is less skilled than Final Neji, defeats him in taijutsu even when enhanced by the second gate. This is consistent with Lee's initial battle with Sasuke and the lesson on speed. This, along with all other achievements, particularly those against Kimimaro, solidifies the argument. While Neji's foot-speed or body flicker speed may not equate to his raw combat speed, nothing suggests it falls below Weightless Lee's level and is quite the opposite. Gai's remark about Lee's unmatched speed clearly pertains to his gated state, as the context explicitly indicates if you read the manga properly.

The video is incorrect on multiple counts. Kaiten surpasses Gaara's sand because it both blocks and repels attacks. When Neji employed Rotation against Kyuubi Naruto, he effectively mitigated the full force of the Kyuubi's chakra. This is evident in their conclusive confrontation where physical contact was avoided, yet their chakras clashed visibly. Tenten later remarked that it disperses an opponent's chakra. Chidori is lightning chakra. "Chakra based attacks are useless against the Gentle Fist." In terms of speed, Neji and Lee belong to the same category and are slightly faster than Sasuke. One of the major misconceptions in the Naruto fan community is the belief that Neji is slower than Lee or Sasuke. According to Databook 2, both Rock Lee and Neji are rated 8/10 for speed, whereas Sasuke, even after mastering the Chidori, holds a rating of 7/10. Although Sasuke has narrowed the difference in speed, he still trails behind them.

It literally repelled the kyuubi chakra which is a hell of a lot more chakra than Sasuke could output at the time. Neji can shut down his Chidori, disable his Sharingan, or kill Sasuke with a single hit. Also he defend himself against any of Sasuke's attacks.

Otherwise you would never be able to actually produce an upper limit for the rotation. Can it repel Kakashi’s Raikiri? No? How would you make that distinction unless you use the statements given. Just saying Kaiten repels chakra is not a good enough reason you have to substantiate it prove it scales above Chidori’s AP, otherwise you’re just arguing the Jutsu functionality which doesn’t give a win when against a stronger technique.

@@ThunderGodTG These are imaginary characters, of course they will be problems and inconsistencies in the Databook. Neji has to be within at least the same speed range as base Lee. If he was slower, he’d be defeated in much the same way Sasuke was. Only opening the Gates gives Lee a Speed advantage per Might guy. Neji isn't slower than Sasuke. The point I'm emphasizing is that Neji blocking Kyuubi-amped Naruto's chakra is a significantly greater feat than blocking a Chidori, which only pierced a water tank. Naruto's chakra reserves are much, much higher than Sasuke's even without the Kyuubi. During the time skip encounter with Kisame, Neji activated his Byakugan and observed that Kisame possessed the most substantial amount of chakra he had seen since his battle with Naruto. Granted this was only a 30 percent Kisame. Neji blocked that. There are other instances to compare, such as when Gaara defeated Curse Mark 1 Sasuke. Sasuke's face showed complete astonishment when Naruto powered up and used the strength he employed "to take down the Hyuga," as Gaara described it, to defeat a partially transformed Gaara-something Curse Mark 1 Sasuke had failed to accomplish.

the difference between palm rotation and Gaaras sand is that its neji himself spinning, so not only is it the chakra being emitted and rotated, but its also nejis hands so unless he goes through nejis hand neji can catch his arm or redirect the trajectory.

Again my thoughts on the chidori vs rotation can be swayed either way but logistically for it to beat rotation it would have to go through it, and if it does will he hit his body? His hand or mis time it and neji facing sideways and he grazes his front or back mid spin. I agree with your 6 or 7 out of 10 more so 6/ 10 rating. But who wins more can go either way.

You see this is something i always wanted to see. Chunin exam Sasuke vs Neji. Most people just said Sasuke easily but I i felt like they never put too much thought in to it. I always figured from statements and reaction Lee likely needing the 4th gate at least to overwhelm Neji. I know people say he struggled and lost to Naruto but lets be honest, rewatching that fight Neji could have ended it sooner. He had a point to prove to Naruto. Something he wouldn't have to prove to Sasuke as they're both geniuses but Naruto called out Sasuke on it after his fight with Lee. Nobody trained as hard as Lee, Sasuke did not really put that effort in. Anyway not to trail off. I always saw it as Neji was fast enough in reaction, attack and defense to overwhelm weightless Lee by such a huge margin Lee couldn't even state he was close to him. So Sasuke with Lee speed with the downside of stamina draining would still get pushed back. Although the Sharringan can help the problem is he can't fully avoid the gentle fist strikes. And if Sasuke arms or legs get tagged too much he might not be able to even use Chidori. Not to mention it is game over if Sasuke gets hit with 64 palms. Granted curse mark might help if it came to that. But I haven't looked into that scenario. On the flip side chidori may not be a sudden win. We saw that people can take it and still live and function. Add in palm rotation possibly deflecting the target to a less vital area because I'm positive Chidori can pierce it albeit at reduced speed and power. So potentially Neji can still fight possibly with one arm and kicks. So i really think the fight can still be 50/50. I would honestly like to see Sasuke lose to humble him more. Although Sasuke winning just barely would have been doped for his confidence.

I will not provide an extensive list of issues but will note that my point about summoning was not refuted, not in the slightest. But you are getting closer to the actual winner. Great vid either way so hold this like and comment as usual. It's a joy to hear. your intros lol

Lol. more brainrot sasuke wan kery from fake fans. Neji disabled a SANIN'S LEGENDARY CURSEMARK with one blow, so Sasuke's transformation isn't saving him. It is manga-cannon that he can handle everything up to 4th Gate Lee WITHOUT the Byakugan, as shown when he was observing Lee's fight with Gaara, so he's not overwhelming Neji with speed, ever. And Chidori is NOT getting through Rotation. It pulverized Naruto into the ground despite the Kyubi energy protecting him, and later on, it deflected the ENTIRE JUUBI ARM which was like the size of a MOUNTAIN. Sasuke is literally getting crushed beyond regocnition if he dares to approach Rotation with Chidori alone. Sasuke is literally obliterated in Part 1 against Neji. The w ankery for Sasuke nauseating. The w ankery for Sasuke is braindead and nauseating. Holy heII. No one can actually read.

Also, against Kidomaru, Neji stands out as the only member of the squad that just decimates their opponent in head on combat. He closes the distance like it’s nothing. Can any of the other sound 4 even dispatch one another that fast. He’s clearly just a fast dude.
@navarixzen69382 ай бұрын
I think Neji's rotation would be able to repel Sasuke's chidori just because his rotation is spinning chakra and is much better in this specific scenario unlike sand, just look at how much more powerful the base rasengan is compare to base chidori, however everyone knows that if Neji uses 64 palms then Sasuke's curse mark would take over and inject natural energy in his body putting him above Neji, either way Sasuke wins even tho Neji should be stronger if Sasuke had no plot armor.

Orochimaru gassing up Sasuke and saying Naruto just doesn't have it can be dismissed as a victim of retcon. Orochimaru knowing Naruto is an Uzumaki and the son of Minato and Kushina while being the jinchuriki of the 9tails makes him sound like an idiot. And he deserves more reapect than to assume he didn't connect the dots of who Naruto having the 9tails and Minato having sealed the 9tails into a baby on the night of his baby's birth... and Naruto looking about the age that child would be at the time he met him. Not to mention he has spies in the village and he was on the akatsuki whose whole thing is capturing the bijuu

The key thing to keep in mind in Naruto Vs partially transformed Gaara is that Gaara literally didn't move at all in that fight, he stood on the same tree branch the entire time while letting Naruto pummel him. What's more, Naruto's clone barrage didn't even do much damage, all it did was peel off some sand. Now compare that to chidori which broke through the sand thrice and each time Gaara was left bleeding and wounded. So it's misleading to use Naruto's speed and AP feats (and by extension Neji's) to put him above Sasuke. Not saying you do this but it's very common.

My only problem is that you never stated that chidori is cancelled by rasengan which is also just spinning chakra I get it’s more condensed but it’s still just spinning Chakra that sends people flying (Naruto vs Kabuto) I think they’d cancel out to be honest

Rasengan doesn’t function really like that it’s chakra that spinning to create the sphere not really like Neji who is rotating with the express purpose of deflecting attacks, that and rasengan is just stronger than Chidori.

Neji hit base Gaara with hands he’s just gonna have trouble actually closing that distance very similarly to Kimmimaro who makes a similar note. The series treats long range fighters as having an advantage of close range so Neji would struggle.

@Astaroth-1Ай бұрын
I think a lot of people are not noting even if Gaara’s defense is stronger, Neji’s Kaiten is actually MOVING at a high speed unlike the the sand, so even if it could pierce kaiten, the speed of Kaiten would obviously move the Chidori off course if not directly repelling the chidori and sasuke.
@ThunderGodTGАй бұрын
That’s not the issue with Kaiten the problem is directly ascertaining where its upper limits lie. You can only argue ninjutsu functionality within a certain range, the problem with Kaiten is people like to arbitrary place caps on what it can actually deflect instead of using what’s provided. I think changing the angle of Chidori is pretty fair but, outright deflecting is entirely baseless, rotation does not have the feats or statements. Repelling Naruto’s clones + Shuriken are not good enough feats, the last clash is completely irrelevant to the Chidori AP scaling over the Kaiten threshold. Kaiten also just has a max out in terms of speed based on how fast Neji himself can go.
@futur3ndings651Ай бұрын
@@ThunderGodTG The clash between Neji and Naruto at the end was more so Naruto using Kurama's chakra though was it not? I don't see that stated anywhere in the video, and that could be why Neji couldn't fully deflect the attack despite the fact he wasn't in full rotation nor took it on directly. Him being able to stand up from that imo is a crazy feat when you think about it. And if he could deflect Kurama's chakra leaking out to some degree, I feel like he could readily do so with Sasuke's Chidori. Especially since Neji would be very self-aware of how strong Sasuke is and his eye capabilities versus Naruto who Neji knew little of combat wise nor of Kurama and Naruto's link. Neji would use full rotation if Sasuke got close and has other jutsu he could combo into to attack swiftly after defending himself.

I think before the finals if Sasuke does not get cm1 out then Neji would body him. If he does then I actually think Sasuke with cm1 could beat Neji before the finals. In the finals I think Sasuke wins high diff. He beat base Gaara and he was able to hurt small one tail Gaara. The best feats Neji has is beating up base Naruto and being even in speed but overpowered by small nine tails Naruto who didn't get that much of a boost from the nine tails. People will bring up how Neji beat the spider sound 4 dude but that Neji is definitely stronger than he was in the finals and he barely won. He also one in a very specific way.

- Neji defeating Kidomaru who should be similar in strength as CM2 Sasuke per the canon statement of Sakon. - Kidomaru admited fighting Neji in close range is suicide and was a worse case scenario for Neji. - Naruto got a huge boost against Neji and was comparable in chakra levels to Kisame in his 1st fight. More chakra than Lee opening 5 gates.

@@pishia1104 1 it's never stated that that sound 4 are on Sasuke's level after he takes the pill and gets access to cm2 and his base is way stronger then it was before he took the pill. 2 yea he is a long-range fighter and is not used to fighting close range and the gentle fist is extremely dangerous I never denied that 3 it's never stated that it's a huge boost or shown to be. The one he got against Haku was considered huge because it put him on part 1 Kakashi level. The one he got against Neji is not considered to be that big. LMAO and that's such a lie. All he said was that he never felt a chakra level as big then Naruto's before. That doesn't mean Naruto's chakra is in the same level as kisame is in that moment. That's such a stretch and misuse of language.
