The MOST UNDER RATED Characters in Naruto 

You hear that Tenten,he made his time worth it

The absolute best dad on the show

@@alicetoyou448 🎯

Amen. One of the coolest too.

Honestly his tactics alone could have made him Hokage

Absolutely! It feels like Anko’s whole storyline got dropped. As the biggest victim of Orochimaru, she had an even better reason to stop Sasuke than Naruto. There definitely could’ve been an interaction with Sasuke or Kakashi at some point.

@@ironrevenger9386I swear I thought Anko was for sure gonna be more important. 😭

@@Williamjacob7789 Anko honestly could’ve been Kakashi’s ship. Bonding over their trauma and Sasuke whose capture they want to prevent most. They talk about their confrontations with Orochimaru, both knowing they were no match for him. While Orochimaru is weaker without his arms, Kabuto is formidable and there isn’t enough information on the Sound Village. The 4 ninja who used advanced Barrier Ninjutsu to keep anyone from assisting Lord 3rd are also a threat. Sizing up Orochimaru like this might require a single episode, half of it being flashbacks to those moments. All fitting the tone since there was so much action and the animation budget needs to recover. One information heavy Naruto free episode to set the tone for the Sasuke Retrieval Arc. Tsunade recognizes Anko as Orochimaru’s student. Anko tells her everything she knows about him and asks to be Sasuke’s guardian. Tsunade approves, with Kakashi hoping his words have reached Sasuke. The Sound 4 kill Anko offscreen in her attempt to protect an unknowing Sasuke. They bring her dead body to him saying “This one wasn’t worthy of the CM, so we ended her suffering by showing how it’s really done. She wanted to keep you away from the power you seek. No one can interfere with a choice such as this.” Everything goes the same with a few minor changes due to Anko’s death… 1. Naruto matures a little. He gains newfound respect for Anko and what she went through with Orochimaru. He wants to get Sasuke back for her as well as himself and the entire village (not just for Team 7 and a whiny Sakura). Motivation befitting a future Hokage. 2. Ibiki and Inoichi examine Anko’s corpse and mind for valuable information on Orochimaru. 3. Kakashi doesn’t find out about Anko’s death until after he saves Naruto. Short flashback of their recent encounters and he thinks “Another good friend gone…” A funeral is held for her during the end of part 1. He resolves to get much stronger.

I don't think that Kurenai ever being the strongest genjutsu user is canon.

And yet edo sasori did not care at all

I mean, That was the guy who kidnapped and LITERALLY killed his baby brother by extracting his tailed beast from him so yeah, That was settling score. 🖐🏻😤 Besides I'm sure Sasori would appreciate someone with the same enthusiasm and love for puppets as him would take good care of his puppets after he bit the dust. 🤷🏻‍♀️

He's also captain of all the anbu.

who is he husband to?

@@ghsrthstrhsrthsthstrh9654 Ino.

@@Jeezes718 mid tbh

Wait he's not Hinata's husband.

Damn. I don't even remember Ibiki fighting anyone in the series (it was a long time since I watched).😅

​@@Human_01I don't think he's ever shown fighting, he was on a mission to go after Kisame in Kisame's flashback but he never fought

Shizune was funny too

@@quentinjones6877he had a fight in the pain arc, he was fighting summon pain on the invasion

@@giocatic7610 I remember that in the anime but don't recall it in the manga

huuh

I don't remember that

@@bernardmartins1093 When Obito is about to give up and Madara is restrained Sai arrives and is about to seal Madara. A second before he’s able to though, Black Zetsu intervenes and latches on to Obito. Madara does Rinne Tensei and regains his physical body before Sai can complete the sealing. Happen in Naruto Chapter 656.

@@umberscholar6403 oh that moment. It's like on soccer when some player make all the hard work and pass the ball to some guy that pushs and scores

I think there is a reason why most of the Naruto fans don't care for Sai that much.... he's just mid. Let's be honest. Lol

It's basically a show vs. tell problem, and the same thing we get with Anbu. We are told Anbu is super powerful, but all the skilled Anbu people we meet aren't in Anbu anymore (and are clearly stronger than they were before), and Anbu never actually succeeds at doing anything on-screen. Some characters are shown doing cool things (or we are told they can), but are never shown actually being successful.

And honestly, a flip side is also sometimes true: I have been rewatching Naruto recently, and it occurred to me that if Neji had been paired with anyone focused on distance, like Temari or Shikamaru, he couldn't have done jack shit to them, despite being a favorite.

​@@dylanmccreary2164more like rampant warf/qaurk effect xD

Characters like Kurenai, Torune, and Anko, who never won anything

She isn’t underrated… she’s just poorly written.

its true tenten is a wasted potential but I don't think it whould make much of a difference since tenten is presentation of what a mediocore shinobi is in the story so I don't think she will be any good in hidden mist even tho probably could be a little stronger than his current self because she is hard working but not half as much as other supporting nor main characters and she is definetly not working smarter so in the end she is just a mediocore character shows what a normal shinobi lookslike it could be a different story if she was trained in senjus weapon arts but it's really hard and like only way in my openion

I like Tenten. Shes been getting a lot of flak off youtuber's. But they give the false premise. 'they are only useful by how much power they have or who they beat in battle' What slips people's mind with Western brain washing. It weird to have the same standards of strength for men and women and expect them to be on par. Its like expecting a child have the same standards. The women are far from made weak. And often keep on par with the guys if not way better then many of the guys. They are just put in stupid positions and compared to the guys .

@@fullercrane1795 so you just like the characterter overall and wish that character had more screen time

@@HP-iq6kn No imo alot of character development done in anime in general is god awful. Itchi , Sasuke , Tsanade Sukura. Making some really whacky characters. Funny enough all four of these characters I've motioned. Have attacked their own team mates and children. And this line always gets me. The five kage form a shinobi alliance because they thought they were going to war with Madara. Temari says this to Marada ' dont underestimate me because am a woman'

He disabled Zaku who was my favorite at the time… can’t forgive him.

Never lost a match too

Shino needs a light novel! It's clear he was bred to be a root level Shinobi. Seeing every excuse like Sasuke retrieval and why he's never included bc he's doing something way cooler

Hats to Shino, 👏👍✨

He's technically undefeated in Naruto

Kakashi was always just such a bad teacher. Great and powerful character, but how anyone handed him a team of Genins is beyond mr

Kakashi had 1000 possible jutsus he could teach the genin with 2 extremely large pools of chakra and chose to teach him non. Yes I know Naruto likely couldn't learn all 1000 jutsus because plenty of them needed control he didn't have. Seriously in a list of 1000 jutsus do you honestly think he doesn't have any jutsus that are high cost low control or at the very least teach him something after his control got better.

@@dylanmiller6169 it’s true - I mean, Yamato had to teach them about chakra nature, and that Naruto had wind nature, and what elements beat others. That should have been a lesson pretty early on 😂

I actually liked Team Yamato, it was a good dynamic for a missing Sasuke. And he was a much better teacher than Kakashi, but Kakashi is supposed to be a bad teacher lol

@@jonnylawless6797 kakashi was so bad I kinda wanted someone to call him out on just how bad. Like I said he let a kid that had more chakra than himself at 12, not counting the foxes chakra, and he just let that kid go on with only 3 jutsus. Anyone else would be making Naruto a full blown ninjutsu specialist teaching him every ninjutsu they could, a fighting style ninjutsu (one ninjutsu so strong and versatile it becomes a fighting style), and/or a few jutsus that get bigger and stronger the more chakra you put in it.

Yeah I thought he was a cool character

I agree, Personally I low key feel like if Kakashi rejected the task of leading team 7 of Naruto, Sasuke and Sakura, Genma would be the next best option. He was under the Platoon Guard of Minato and could manage controlling the Chunin exams.

​@@eltonndimande5244ngl it would actually be pretty cool. Imagine genma learning that naruto is the 4th hokage's son from the 3rd hokage or jiraiya and then him teaching naruto the flying raijin. Then naruto would have both the jutsu's his father developed.

She doesn't really have her own ambition to do much of anything. Her personality died long ago. Being abandoned, the war and deaths traumatized her. She is walking depression. She just was existing going along with nagato ying yuck stupidity because their best friends and adoptive brother died. Then Nagato died too. She did what others wanted. She didn't really want a new family and i think she wouldn't have the mental space to have a child. I feel like even if she did prego some how she'd kill the infant just so she wouldnt go through the heart ache of loosing it to someone else. She went back to the rain village to i guess make a positive change... I dont know i feel like she'd paper her self and disolved in water after stabalizing the village (suicide). She might as well have died too in the pain arch too because her being friends with naruto didnt happen. She didnt help during the war. During the last movie wen the moon crisis went down. I think a better purpose for her would be like a big sister to Naruto and they could visit each other and trade stories. Maybe even if so just opened a origami shop that sells paper crafts like lanterns and trades paper tags to the leaf and make the rain village money.

And she does this in a village that's always wet which really messes with paper especially folding paper

"Dance of the Shikigami", shinigami means death reaper.

@@laudydorado5245ああヤバイ文法警察

Yeah! I got a tattoo of her

Definitely my favorite filler character. She has an amazing backstory, a devastating jutsu, and well-written overall.

Was looking for this comment agreed loved her as a character hard to beat a good redemption arc

I want her in a game so bad

I was thinking the same

I love guren

My fave character fr

He's my favourite character from sand siblings

I think he is underrated but he literary took sosari who should be one this list and took his third kazekage which sosari got by killing the third kazekage and he managed to turn his body into a puppet and if plot wasnt involved hide his heart and be literary invinsible and control a hundred plus puppets wtone time and granny chio said herself that he let himself be killed saying kankuro is underrated is correct but stronger than sosari is a big stretch aslo a plot hole that should have been included in his last vidoe is that sosari didnt hide his heart or use the kazekage puppet with the hundred puppets tecniqe do while people a fighting for their lives they hwve to dodge iron sand projectiles.

Right!!!! I love Kankuro!

@@jakegeraldine5149Chiyo and Sakura destroyed the 3rd kazekage puppet, but yeah when Sasori died again after Itachi and Sasuke forced Kabuto to release edo tensei, he left himself and all the puppets he had to kankuro. My man not only wields some powerful puppets that were created by the greatest puppet master of all time, he also has Sasori himself, possibly the most powerful puppet ever created. This man is stacked. He also probably has the 10 Chikamatsu puppets created by the first puppet master. Kankuro has one of the most stacked loadouts out of anyone in Naruto. He never uses Sasori or the 10 Chikamatsu puppets

I stopped watching / getting in to Naruto but I decided to get back into it earlier this year, but I know he is really underrated lol

Considering how the manga handled kakuzu vs kakashi, kakuzu was a beast, so trying to fight him 1 on 1 is crazy

I know him, I've liked him since his epic entrence at the arena during the Konoha Crush arc.

And he was only a tokubetsu jounin too.

I like the Aoba vs Pain fight

he was a weakling

Wait, this stuff was canon?

This is partly stupid by saying “you can’t blame Sakura” that’s statement makes no sense since you could say this for any underrated character ITS THE AUTHORS FAULT. She is a fictional character you can any fictional character for there underrated stats or under use They were written ‼️

Well, Kishimoto does seem to have an issue handling female characters. Sakura was horribly used; ill decisions when she was showing development or growth, lack of impact after Sasori, etc. Aoba is really cool, though. Sakura deserved better.

@@letstalkwhy93lol no

@@franciscocota6440 The easiest way to use her would be making her the brains of the operation. Instead of Sasuke coming up with clever plans and codes let Sakura do it. Let Sasuke lead and implement but defer to her superior intellect.

@@letstalkwhy93 yes, exactly. Unless there is someone or some group who forced the author to sideline a main character, it's 100% the author's fault. Otherwise, who would you blame? You literally can't blame Sakura. She's just a fictional idea who doesn't have a mind of her own. That's like blaming the door for being noisy when you slammed it shut. Like, the door didn't do anything--you're the one who slammed that door! Likewise, Sakura's just an idea. She wouldn't be the way she was if Kishimoto didn't write her like that. Also, you have to remember that Sakura is being hated and called useless is partly because she was supposed to be a main character. "Underrated" characters are usually a testament to how good an author is, because they can write really good side characters. Calling a character "underrated" is a compliment, not a critique.

Oh nice, the scene she chose to cut her hair to get away from her hold instead of using the kunai like an actual weapon and defend herself. Such a true shinobi worthy of praise /s

@MibuInMalibu Yup. That scene. The one where she threw shuriken and all her other kunai at the sound ninja. Ya know. As weapons. To defend herself. So what's your point?

@MibuInMalibu And let's just ignore everything she did after that with the substitution jutsu. A strategy very becoming of a shinobi.

Yup, Shino has the attitude and skill set of a real world ninja. Aloof, never underestimates his opponent, and hiding his appearance

I love him and i found him to be a much better sensei to Naruto than Kakashi (I won’t say better than Jiraiya but close). Yamato was the one who would always tell Naruto the truth, and he responded the best to Yamato’s straightforward teaching. Yamato is the one who told Naruto, “look, you’re the one that hurt Sakura when you let the nine tails take over. You have to learn how to fight without letting that happen, or you’re going to hurt people.” And that was one of the most important things Naruto was ever told!

It’s justice through irony

I honestly wouldn't be surprised if Yamato would want said job. Yamato wouldn't want anyone to go through what he did, and the best way to ensure that is to constantly guard Orochimaru, and anything FROM Orochimaru.

and somehow he allowed Orochimaru to run artificial test tube babies and create so many Mitsukis? Man Yamato is so bad at his job now. @@Sassaparilla

@@dibyaudhdas1978 they were grown from Orochimaru. You gonna get mad at somebody for deciding whether or not to grow out their hair?

I agree, Personally I low key feel like if Kakashi rejected the task of leading team 7 of Naruto, Sasuke and Sakura, Genma would be the next best option. He was under the Platoon Guard of Minato and could manage controlling the Chunin exams.

@@eltonndimande5244 Yeah, I really like that idea, mostly because he would get so much character development, and he could show what he is capable of. Maybe using the flying raijin by himself later in the story. And yes, you are right, if he can guard the hokage and controlling the exams, he can manage the trio.

She's not underrated, she just straight up sucks

Could you explain why re you think that not trying to pick a fight or something but from my view tenten is emboyment of most mediocore shinobi in the story like litterly she shows how strong your average shinobi should be for each level like genin chuunin or joinin

@@HP-iq6kn well for starters she can master any and all weapons given to her, especially the legendary fan weapon the kurama brothers ( forget their names) would use in battle that can use any elemental release but needs a lot of chakra, and since weve only seen them use it before, people that have a portion of kuramas chackras, so really strong, just the fact that she could swing it twice unless proven otherwise id say is a great feat. Another reason adding to her skillset is that she was made to be a seller in a weapons shop, she could have definatly done more but even the writer felt like just keeping her on the side lines ://

He doesn’t even use jutsu though, all he does is swing the weakest 7sword of the mist around haphazardly lol

Same I was expecting big things from Suigetsu. He didnt really do much but get punched in the face by Karin. They just made a joke of him.

@@MonroeSim He did basically reveal he can use the Hozuki Water Pistol though. Y'know, one of the most dangerous, discrete attacks of that Clan? There's a reason he points at Sasuke with a damn finger gun when we are first introduced to him.

@@Sassaparilla oh yeah I forgot about that pistol jutsu, nevermind

@@MonroeSim Yeah I really wish we saw more of the other members of Taka/Hebi. Suigetsu is just INHERENTLY a cool guy. Another character known for weapon usage despite supposedly having good ninjutsu is Hidan. Fun fact, his highest stat in the databooks is of course Stamina, but it is TIED with Ninjutsu. Yet we never see Hidan use Ninjutsu, just Bukijutsu (Weapon Techniques) and Jujutsu (Curse Techniques). Hidan was already very powerful in his village BEFORE being immortal, so I wonder what his combat style was back then.

Don't get your hopes high

And the crows were Shisui's and Itachi's thing too lol.

bro through hands with kakazu

@@chefkefatien7049 I noticed he threw hands with him but it didn't last and it looked more like they were trying distract Kakazu so everyone can get ready to pull out. Ngl I don't like those episodes due to the fact that he died in the most messed up way possible. Hear me out. 😂 I understand that he went up against the zombie duo and countless people died in some messed up ways. But they literally let him (behead) a guy, and Then Hidan's head is sewn back on him and Then he kills Asuma. They could have written that a little differently in my opinion. To me it feels like Asuma was more Robbed or Cheated of his life rather than Defeated. Which is horrible considering how great Asuma was a Jonin. He single handedly wiped out Orichimaru's pursuit force while catching up to Shikamaru.

frr I still think bout what if dosu didn’t stupidly fight gaara, he could’ve had a amazing redemption and his design is my fav in all naruto

Was dosu the dude with a hunchback and toilet paper all over his face?

@@brotbrotsen1100 Yes

Dosu should've survived of the three and gained more sound based ninjutsu.

I've always viewed Danzo as an elderly person suffering paranoid dementia. Even if he killed every single human being on the planet, he would always find something as a threat that needs to be killed, wielding a kunai under his robes. "That squirrel has cunning eyes, definitiely up to something. He must be dealt with before he comes more powerful..." In his more lucid moments he still only speaks about threats. His mental derangement became apparent when he deliriously started stabbing Sasuke's Susano'o with a kunai saying "Just as I thought, a susano'o". Like it's something he does all the time, hitting things randomly with kunai, not believing his eyes since he constantly sees hallucinations. "Just as I thought, a brick wall... Just as I thought, a prostitute... just as I though, a child's throat..." 😄

I always thought about danzo like Dolores Umbridge in Harry Potter, one of the viles person that can exist, are those that not only cant see the evil or damage on his actions but BLINDLY believe its the right thing to do, no matter who get in the colateral damage of their means.

😢

​@@bastianokamiro5421Dolores Umbridge was sadistic for the sake of her sadism, using her role in the ministry as an excuse

I see him as a horrible person but I really believe that he loved the village and wanted to protect it. It's just his idea of what it should be and how to get there are really flawed.

they give Teuchi a larger shop in Boruto

Genma was really awesome. I would have loved to see his fight with Baki

Yeah genma is my favorite character he was a basic cool ninja

@@franciscocota6440 you are thinking of Hayate Gekko but I agree

Eh, I feel like Temari would be more of a honorable mention. Considering her lack of time in the show, she is well respected and loved by quite a bit of the community, she's definitely not as underrated as many others.

@@K4mui2152 That's fair, she's more of a candidate for a "You Know Nothing" style video than an "Underrated Characters" video.

While I agree, Kankuro was also a Jonin post time skip

I'm disappointed that the samurai were made useless

@@quentinjones6877 Well it is a shiw about ninjas. But the Samurai had fucking cool abilities and deserve more love. And someday, I will pester him enough he'll make a video just to shut me the hell up.

@@ShadowKatt lol sounds good

I would love to see that with Rock Lee, he is so majorly under utilized by Kishimoto

If Nick did it, Sasuke wouldn't be in the show.

I would say both choji & shikimaru are my favourite Naruto characters but I can’t agree with your choji takes on him being the strongest & having the saddest story. Imo there are many much worse stories, Sai, Yamato & rin come to mind. But he is genuinely likeable & displays main character traits. Shikimaru is just a bad ass with the coolest/most cathartic Akatsuki kill, plus he’s a better friend than sasuke!

@@danielbrowne8044 I should of clarified, choji is the most physically strong, like when they say Sakura has "monster strength". He would definitely lose to almost every character in Naruto. But physically, he is strongest, at least I'm like 99% sure that, that's canon. As far as saddest, I guess that's all up to each person individually. I definitely agree those you mentioned plus more have very sad stories. But chojis story when fighting jurobo hit me very hard and much harder than any of the other people's stories. But that's my personal feelings/view. Shikimaru is definitely one of the top most bad ass, I say it's a toss up between shikimaru and shino. Shino was just so cool. I feel like if he had more air time he would of shown some amazing fights. Shikimaru vs Akatsuki was of course amazing! Like we all knew he was going to win, but the way he did was just awesome. Love shikimaru a lot

What the hell, choji has a pretty damn mild story, sure bullying is bad but it was mundane, something people in the real world expirence regularly even. I don't see how people treating you poorly for a while is worse than losing your whole family to the person you loved and respected the most, getting oppressed and treated like a monster from a whole village, being forced to fight in wars as a child were you see your best friend die after your dad committed self deletion or living as a orphan in a village that is constantly in the center of wars. I'm sorry, you can die on that hill if you want but it's just objectively not that bad. You also said it was itachis decision but it's not like choji is forced to be fat, he could change that.

@@brotbrotsen1100 well, no one is asking you to understand my view. Everyone else you mentioned eventually or already had respect from others, they were not considered just some fat loser by the entire village. I never said others didn't have a sad story as well. Sasuke, losing all his family and clan to his brother of course is traumatic, but he had so many people who wanted to be with and around him. He was never made to feel like less than a person. Itachi DID have a choice, he chose to murder his clan to save more lives. But nonetheless he chose that path. Something he indeed had control over. Kakashi losing his father was painful for sure, but he had (again) so many people who cared for him and respected his strength and didn't treat him like less than a person. For your last statement, yes choji in fact did have to be fat. If you look at his father, and all akimichi clan members, are much heavier than the others, their genetics are heavier set people. It's like you telling a somoan person that they're fat and it's controllable. They are naturally bigger people. Extremely strong people. It's in their DNA. Every person you mentioned had respect and more than just shikimaru looking out for them. All choji had was shikimaru. Even asuma degraded choji several times. Ino as well. Enemies, everyone treated choji as less than a person. Everyone you mentioned had bad things happen in their life. But only choji was treated bad for existing

@@wowdhaewow8901 It was quite well established that choji was pretty much constantly eating, the clan pretty much weaponized calories.

Atleast with naruto, it makes sense since they’re both reincarnations destined to kill one another so naruto not giving up on him despite this and breaking the cycle of hatred falls in line with the story. Sakura on the other hand is a different story..

@@jaybronx98 even that is dumb with how much hes done how much he's wronged them he should have been begging for forgiveness not giving in to their attempts at forgiveness

@@loganangell9905 no it’s not bc that logic goes against the main themes of the story which is literally being able to change your destiny and overcoming hatred. The reason you find it dumb is bc you look at their relationship and compare it to real life friendships which you shouldn’t. There’s nothing realistic about 2 reincarnations being stuck in an endless cycle of hatred for over 1000 years destined to kill one another.

@@jaybronx98 my guy you literally just described why it's bad it's not realistic. And the reincarnation part makes it even more dumb because they don't know they are reincarnations till the end

@@loganangell9905 my guy.. you do know just bc something isn’t realistic, doesn’t mean it’s bad right?😂 otherwise why are you even watching fictional stories? Stick to non fiction if that’s your issue. Ninjas with superpowers and magical eyes isn’t realistic but it’s entertaining. And why’s it dumb that they didn’t know they were reincarnations? That’s actually a common trope in fiction, a lot of reincarnations don’t know they are until a certain point in the story.

@@quentinjones6877 ok but that shouldn’t take away from what he has done before the anime if it means he was one of the strongest people in the land of fire

@@user-alex123. it shouldn't but it was underwhelming for someone like him

Sakura is skilled and has the strength. Plus one of the best glow ups for the Konoha 13. Adult Sakura is just chef kiss in terms of design. I think it’s just her personality that turns a lot of people off. The tsundere trope doesn’t always work for a lot of people, particularly western audiences. Pair that with some of her questionable choices and you have a recipe for disaster. Part 1 definitely has a lot to do with that. Which undoubtedly left a lot of people with a sour impression, that is hard to get rid of. But like you say, her love for Sasuke was probably her biggest weakness/most hated part of her character. At least Naruto obsession made a bit more sense in them being rivals/brother/lovers?(idk, however you want to see it. You do you.) similar levels of respect or acknowledgement of each other and their abilities. Plus having similar backgrounds. Allowing for a much deeper bond vs a girl with a crush on a guy who very clearly at most, only considered her a platonic friend/familial comrade during part I. Even less reasons for her crush to persist into Shippuuden when Sasuke outright ignored and very nearly killed/would have let her die multiple times. (Not trying to hate on Sasusaku shippers but any mutual love these two had for one another, was definitely developed after the war.) Sakura should’ve been allowed to outgrow and move past that and become a strong woman not in his shadow or at least show them developing MUTUAL feelings in non toxic ways. They have potential but the way Kishimoto portrayed their relationship and most importantly Sakura’s near dependency on gaining Sasuke’s love above all else, did a disservice to her.

Also Rock Lee is the perfect Otsutsuki buster alongside Shino because Taijutsu can’t be absorbed and Rock Lee’s should be the strongest Taijutsu user we’ve ever seen as of Boruto being Guy Sensei’s star student but it’s never been shown.

Watch Rock Lee be able to sustain 8th gates without taking as much recoil damage using the drunken fist. Get some chakra infused alcohol and he'll surpass Might Gai when the time is right.

Danzo feels very much like a plot device in the same way as Kaguya does.? why? kaguya

@@ciplk1767 Kaguya was introduced to solve the problem of Madara being too broken to be beaten in the same way that Danzo was introduced to solve Itachi's villainy.

​@@antoineguerrier2965That wasn't the reason why kaguya was introduced. It doesn't even make sense logically, why would you introduce a even stronger character, the mother of god in fact, to solve the problem that you don't know how to defeat the villain who merely copies some of her powers. Kaguya was introduced to set up boruto which is even more lame.

Exactly ❤ I love Sai for that.

Thats why sakura redeem is to kill sasuke in first place,because of what sai say that because naruto love her that he make that promise..sakura want to end naruto promise and thats why she lie to him...in fact naruto him self say that without his promose to sakura he will be bring back sasuke to the village...for naruto sakura willing to kill the man she love.

Badass? More like bad as
