Ranking The 11 Strongest Naruto Summons 

Who's the best summon?

I swear if Sakura summoning Naruto isn’t number 1 Edit wow I didn’t expect to get 1k like’s thanks guys 😁

Konohamoru never learning how to summon and utilize Monkey King Enma was such a missed opportunity

"Danzo's done nothing wrong" my eye twitched when you said that

When the main counter to a summon is "kill the summoner", you know it's strong.

Gamabunta is not equal to Shukaku. Shukaku was weak when he awakened because of the jutsu he used on Gaara to control him. He was slowly growing in power while they were fighting, and even Gamabunta mentions to Naruto that they need to end the fight quickly because they won't be able to beat Shukaku once he is full power. That's why they cheat the fight and wake up Gaara.

0:47 Danzo did nothing wrong😂😂 Bro trying to start 3rd world war🔥🔥

Strongest summoning is Sakura yelling for Naruto. Dude was able to fight pain and has his own pet fox. 10/10 summon wish she used it more

I am still subscribing to the idea that Hashirama was a slug sage and probably the only one who could have summoned Katsuyu in her entirety. Just remember how Katsuyu treated Tsunade with utmost respect not like a pal or a superior. Probably cause she knew her gramps.

To summon Katsuyu, the byakugou seal is required. Which is why prodigies like Shizune and other high class medical ninja are unable to summon her. Katsuyu is directly linked to the byakugou seal as stated that her powers are directly proportional to the strength of seal. This should also mean that Tsunade had the byakugou seal way back since the 2nd great ninja war. Many recognizable shinobi from other village referred to her as "slug princess" which means she used Katsuyu quite a lot in her fights. I made a video on how she possibly countered chiyo's poisons through the use of Katsuyu's ability to liquify herself.😊

Katsuyu’s ability to transmit intel should make her higher. When Kakashi trained Naruto on wind style, he said shadow clones were originally designed for gathering intel, not for combat. Oftentimes, intel is more important than raw strength. Katsuyu’s ability to transmit intel makes her one of the best assets in a war.

Why does he keep calling Kurama a female? Kurama is male.

I honestly think Temari's Kamaitachi weasel summon is more or at least as impressive as Danzo's Baku. It decimated the entire forest over what seems like a larger area then Danzo's Baku seemed to be able to suck stuff up from. Actually, it seems like the Kamaitachi did more damage then Shukaku's wind bullets it fought Gamabunta with. It might be the single strongest Wind Style attack we see in the series other then Rasenshuriken?

Pain’s “multi-hound” is CRAZY OP

I never really liked that the 9 tails was so so much stronger than all the other tail beast together. Wish it be closer to the 8 tails with maybe needing help from one other to tie with him.

5:40 Jiriya’s frog song genjutsu that he used against pain could also be seen as an army affecting genjutsu given its sound based

Dude seriously said "Kurama *herself* "!

We have not seem 100% katsuyu. Personally I do not doubt that Hashirama was a Slug Sage and able to summon a bigger portion of Katsuyu

5:44 there are actually three other AoE genjutsu but one is not very relevant and the other two are auditory and never on panel capture an army. So there's Tayuya's flute genjutsu (when Kabuto casts it it's far beyond chunin level in the war arc) and Jiraya's Frog Song. Theoretically they could capture a massive amount of people, but I'm not sure how loud each attack is, we can only make guesses based on the scenes we see each attack being used. The other one is (funnily enough also casted by Kabuto) is called the temple of nirvana- white feathers fall from the sky and anyone caught in it will be put to sleep. This is how Kabuto started the sound village attack in Konoah Crush arc, but part one Kakashi and Gai were able to get out of it, also the proctor Genma.

Honestly, I think people often sleep on Gamabunta and mostly because he is heavily under-underutilized. As a summon he is also using sage, and more importantly, the most OP thing of the frog summons: he can make his own Jutsu. No one ever uses this properly, but unlike other summons that come with a pre-determined skillset and basically fight in raw stats, Toads/Frogs are shown to learn, adapt and actually can use jutsu - and jutsu that uses sage/natural energy/chakra, at that. This opens the door to an endless possibility of combos and with Gamabunta's size it means all of these combos are massive in size. Gamabunta, and Toads in general, suffer from the Sasuke's affliction: Kishimoto stuff characters with OP abilities but never expands upon them or properly uses them together.

It's good to see my man Enma ranking so high.

"Kurama herself" Wait Hold up

Explain to me in detail how you came to the conclusion that Kurama is a girl because it's clearly not a mistake you actively keep referring to the nine tails like a girl. The only reason i could possibly think you'd have is the real nine tails from Japanese mythology was a girl (like a human girl with nine fox tails) but the one in Naruto has never show any sign of being a girl whatsoever. Further more the voice actors are straight up men with the deepest voices you'll ever hear in both sub and dub.

Definitely one of my favorite summons. This is the description of Baku the dream eater, An early 17th-century Japanese manuscript, the Sankai Ibutsu (山海異物), describes the baku as a shy, Chinese mythical chimera with the trunk and tusks of an elephant, the ears of a rhinoceros, the tail of a cow, the body of a bear and the paws of a tiger, which protected against pestilence and evil. Absolutely incredible summons, I'm curious as to how the hell danzo found and created a contract with this beast, it would be cool to have mini arcs on things like that.

the Geddo Mazo is definitely stronger than Kurama. well, maybe not directly. but it's chain is specifically strong enough to restrict, pull in, and absorb all the Bijuu. including the Nine Tails. also, Madara technically summoned the nearly complete Ten Tails before absorbing it.

Kabuto stated that Manda II is bigger, stronger, and has far more acute senses than the original Manda. It is easily one of the largest summons, almost the same length as the Island Turtle. The turtle itself is one of - if not the largest - creature in the series, easily surpassing the nine tailed beasts and the Sannin's respective larger summons, while rivalling the Ten-Tails

Not even a minute in and there's already a "Danzo did nothing wrong" being spilled 🤣

I love it! Thanks for uploading this!

Great job on this analysis.......did a great job capturing some of the lesser known summons! My favorites are Gamabunta, Enma, and Manda.

Honestly escaping from Gedou Mazou by performing shushin no jutsu (while you're supposed to be like easily top 5 in the ninja world) was the perfect way to tell how dangerous that thing is.

My man said danzo did nothing wrong 😂

It's sad how summonings became pretty much useless once Naruto got Tailed Beast Mode and Sasuke got Susanoo. At least the giant ones. Stuff like Kakashi's dogs and Temari's scythe-wielding weasel could still be useful

Starting the video. I’m betting Hagoromo summoning team 7 is the top spot.

Hanzo completely defeated all three sannin and could have gone another round. Also he was able to keep up with chiyo in her prime and won his fights. He is a monster, id put him around Minato level.

Imagine if Tsunade chose Naruto as her protege instead of Sakura with the size of his chakra reserves.

The strongest summon is definitely that editor's phone call to kishi

I think Ibuse is really underrated, considering he is Hanzos strongest Jutsu and Hanzo was stronger then the Sanin.

“Danzos not done anything wrong”

Imaging using the Second Mizukage's Giant Clam and hidden mist jutsu together. You would be invincible lol

I really always felt like kurama is like 40% of the juubi. That's why it had to go last. But kishimoto got lost in the end with another half, kinkaku &Co You know.... The obvious stuff

Hanzo along side his summons is what makes his summon so powerful. Hanzo is one of the most powerful characters that never got screen time.

When the Sanin were facing Hanzo I don't believe they had access to their unique summons at that time. The One Tail is not the weakest, he specifically states that the number of tails doesn't correlate to their power. The majority of times you see the other Tailed beasts they aren't fighting at full power. They're either being controlled by inferior masters, or are are not in perfect union like Naruto and the Nine Tails were towards the end of the series. 20:59 as I understand it when you make a pact with one of these summoned creatures the link/summoning works both ways, which is why not everybody is summoning such powerful creatures. They can summon YOU to their home dimension if need be. Lastly, you forgot the ability to summon Ninja tools/weapons. There are plenty of "legendary" weapons and tools that can easily make a apt shinobi able to take on powerful foes including tailed beasts. Tenten was using very powerful summoned weapons during the last war.

Love this channel man

At first I wasn't too amazed by the falcon summon Sasuke had but then I realized the tactical potential and other out of battle practical uses for it.

Baku is a mythological creature, that’s what made it so shocking. It’d be like summoning a dragon in their world. It eats dreams/souls I believe.

Gengetsu's clam should be much higher. Considering how much he relied on it.

Bro I want to apologize. I’ve been watching your videos for a while now and just realized I’m not subbed!!! I gotcha bro. Thanks for the videos. Keep them coming. I’m here for it all 🔥

I Kinda think the Rinnegan Summons are probably the strongest. Since they probably Scale with the power of Caster. Like. the more powerful the guy behind the rinnegan + the more powerful the mastery of the Rinnegan. the more powerful the summons. All the other rinnegan 6 paths scale with it's user. So why wouldn't this specific path. The Summon that Edo Nagato made was way stronger than the same version of that summon that Jiraiya fought vs Pain and even stronger than the one that seemed to be summoned by Pain against Naruto while Pain was weakened.

Should just be the 10 tailed beasts and then then probably katsuya depending on how much of her body is summoned.

I miss summoning hope they give it a chance in Borito more...

I've noticed you've referred to the Ninetails a s a "her" a number of times, where do it specify this? I've read the whole manga and watch every anime episode and don't ever recall the nine tailed be called a her.

Cool video idea: What summoning would best suit each bleach Captain or Lieutenant?

Just noticed that in the anime, sasuke's susano against danzo sometimes have 5 fingers instead of 6

Just had a thought. What if. Katsuyu main body is as big as the turtle island turtle. That sounds plausible when Tsunade and Sakura only summoned 1/3 of it.

We need an OVA of mini arcs! Like bro that’s impossible but stillll

you did hikaku dirty with that last bit

Kurama is him

The fact Kurama is such a hax makes you wonder why Mito and Kushina who both could control his power against his will never did

In fact, if Hikaku has contract with summonings, he technically could be the summoning

Kabuto's Genjutsu during the Chunin exam was an AoE Genjutsu. Kurenai's Genjutsu against Itachi and Kisame was also likely AoE

When I saw the title, I immediately thought about the multi-headed hound. That summoning gave me a hard time thinking how to defeat it.

Enma slamming Tobirama through the floor is one of the most brutal, hilarious and satisfying things in the anime.

Forgot Shiki Fujin bro ;) Love ur videos however, keep up

I thought N1 would be that Giant wood budha statue with thousands of hands of Hashirama since he fought Madara's colosal susano + Kurama

Can you doing a video on the summon creatures origin. Explaining how do you exist and how they should have been the origin of chakra or how do humans handle them before chakra. Because I it make more sense for the to. Be the original chakra user over the otsutsuki

I basically agree with all of your takes, so I'm going to quickly run down the special abilities of every summon you talked about & their abilities' feats in combat. #11 - Baku (- is much larger than mastered MS Sasuke Uchiha's Humanoid Susanoo, can suck basically anything into its mouth by sucking wind, similar to a black hole. Nearly sucked in Sasuke's Susanoo, a "perfect defensive technique.") #10 - Ibuse (- while not too large, is still is the size of 5 - 10 average - sized people. Has incredible battle experience as it helped Hanzō "win" against the Legendary Sannin, can spew incredible poison from its mouth that can defeat a large group of shinobi at once.) #9 - Gengetsu's Clam (- while it has decent combat prowess, its main ability is the illusions that it casts with the mist created by the clam. These illusions were able to basically defeat an entire battalion of shinobi at once, and took two High Kage - Caliber shinobi to take care of) #8 - Gamabunta (- is extremely large, as it can range from tailed beast sizes. Is one of the greatest summons for combative prowess, as he utilizes his proficiency with blades & his overall H2H combat and size to overcome enemies, even taking on tailed beasts for short amounts of time. He can also restrain targets with Toad Oil Bullet, create gargantuan Fire Release techniques with Jiraiya, and counter Shukaku (a tailed beast)'s Wind Release with his own Water Release) #7 - Manda (- although extremely difficult to control, still EXTREMELY powerful overall. Manda can shed its skin whenever he's about to die to an attack, which is how he survived the combined attack between Jiraiya & Gamabunta, has venomous fangs that are extremely deadly, is agile & flexible with its body, etc.) #6 - Katsuyu (- easy to control; extremely versatile. Is a master at healing, capable of allowing shinobi over the battlefield to survive large - scaled attacks, can perform long - ranged healing, can negate most attacks' damage by manipulating her body to create thousands of miniature versions of herself, can spew extremely powerful acid, and 1/10 of her is the size of the largest tailed beasts) #5 - Multi - Headed Dog (- one of the hardest summons to deal with; can replicate & increase its amount of heads & therefore attack potency every time it gets damaged by any attack {including Naruto's KCM-charged Rasenshuriken}, can split the amount of dogs by the amount of heads it currently has. Can only be countered by killing the summoner, teleporting it to a different dimension / paralyzing genjutsu, or insane abilities like Amaterasu) #4 - Monkey King Enma (- most combat effective summon on this list; is around as experienced as Hiruzen Sarutobi, was confident enough to defeat Konoha Crush Arc Orochimaru by himself, is extremely agile, fast, overall powerful, and even punched a weakened Hashirama Senju & caused him to go flying. Can turn into an adamantine staff, with adamantine being the most potent material in the series, and block attacks like Deep Forest Emergence & Kusanagi-blade swings, can push the Nine - Tails outside of a large village, etc.) #3 - Fukasaku & Shima (- greatest toad-type summons in the series. Both are Perfect Sage Mode-users & extremely experienced ones, can perform extremely powerful techniques like the Frog Song, which could put one in a paralyzing, inescapable genjutsu, the Sage Art: Goemon, which, in conjunction with Jiraiya, creates above boiling-hot waves of toad oil that could burn someone to a crisp, all attacks are amplified by Sage Mode, extreme sensory-capabilities, etc.) #2 - Gedō Mazō (- greatest summon that the Rinnegan can perform. Summons the HUSK of the Ten - Tails, and even without any tailed beasts within it, could create soul - stealing dragons & instantaneously defeat hundreds of Hidden Rain Shinobi with ease. With seven & a half tailed beasts, could fight against Naruto, Killer Bee, MS War Arc Kakashi, & Gated Guy with ease, could perform the abilities of all tailed beasts it had access to.) #1 - Kurama (- was able to take on Hashirama Senju in his prime with Madara Uchiha, could create tidal waves & terraform large countries with ease by a swipe of its tails, a half-powered Nine - Tails could create a Tailed Beast Bomb on the level of five other tailed beasts, took up more than half of the Ten - Tails' power in its prime, can sense negative emotions & was a force of nature, could continuously spam Tailed Beast Bombs, and could give its holder a power beyond even the strongest characters in the universe by sacrificing his own life / their life, that being Baryon Mode)

The only misstep I saw was that you said there was "no" genjutsu that can AOE a large group. What about Ma's song on Jiraiya?

Danzo did nothing wrong?? Yeah I’m calling the cops 😂

The clam isn't the only AoE genjutsu. Just off the top of my head, I know there is the frog song jutsu that Ma and Pa used versus Pain.

I wish they explained how the six paths justu works because it can't just be genjustu because you have essentially use the creation of all things jutsu to make duplicates of ones eyes and even in alternate size for all the summonings and of course with some beings like that dog where it can literally create copys of itself so it can't be just genjustu

We REALLY need that 3rd hokage series

Where did you find this colored manga?

I always wonder why Jiraiya didn't just sink the hound in mud like he did or tryed with Monda

“Kurama *HER* -self” 21:28

Imagine Naruto summoning Katsuyu with chakra from the nine tails or even all the tailed beasts! Would that much chakra even be necessary for 100% Katsuyu?

I love when minato summons himself with flying raijin

It’s so sad That they sacrificed 100 humans Just to make Mander happy

You forgot Hashirama's summoning the slapping statue lol

I honestly wished we saw more from the other tail beast

Now way you said and I quote “ kurama her self” go back and listen to it😂

Don’t say “3 legendary sannin”. It’s redundant. ‘San’means 3 and ‘nin’ means ninja. Legendary sannin=3 legendary ninja.

Hi dygo can make a video about all ninja war that happened? And maybe rewrite some part of the story..

Technically with his Rinnegan Sasuke should be able to summon Kaguya with the Outer Path not that he would though

Can you make a video about Danzo vs 5 Kage? 1v1 of course

Enma is my pick for best summon outside of your obvious top 2. Hiruzen was a dead man so many times without him. It’s not even like he just assisted, either. He carried the entire fight against 2 edo hokage AND Orochimaru.

Yo that claim was so OP i cant belive he was ever a kage . The hokage are always supposed to the the strongest of the kage but hes one that really makes u question, him and Mu

There is a factor here that isn't mentioned. Ofc it's just a head canon theory of mine. But still, it makes a lot of stuff make more sense imo. I think at least SOME summons scale to the power of the summoner in one way or another. Either its a direct scaling, like the more powerful the summoner, the more powerful the summon; OR, certain summons can be summoned with more or less chakra and depending on how much is used, the summon can get a direct power boost from it. Ofc Katsuyu can be summoned in % based on chakra used, but i think like Bunta, for instance was way stronger when Minato summoned him to help with kurama than he was when Naruto summoned him to help with shukaku

The dog solos Kakuzu btw

The 1 tail is not the weakest tailed beast. The 8 tail said that the number of tails do not correspond to their strength. The tailed beasts are all roughly the same in strength (Kurama being the outlier, bc he’s waaaay stronger than them)

Ngl that TWO DOTS add had me a little intrigued.

Monkey king Enma should be my favorite. Fking love this summon.

You guys selling miniature Baku’s? I need it… for research of course

I don't know if Gedo Mezo shouldn't be the first. Because of its hax, it's hard counter to any of the tailed beasts at it can chain them, nullifying their powers and sucks them up effortlessly. A ninetails wouldn't have any chance against it.

Imagine Naruto at the end of shippuden would have been able to summon katsuya with all his chakra 😅

Why is he refering kurama as 'her'??

Danzo's su mon is not an elephant but a tapir, japanese people believe that tapir can suck peoples dreams

Imagine how strange the manga drawing of Boruto would look in full color

I hate how in boruto they removed the concept of summonings,atleast in anime canon boruto had a snake named Garaga but they got rid of it

Would Sai's drawings count as summonings? Or just something entirely different?

Not a full time summon, but I love Gamatatsu. He is so funny always wanting snacks!
