I agree with your ire, and will back it up with a Hammond Organ solo.įurthermore, not only was Mei badass enough to survive the Bloody Mist, she also survived specific persecution, and since she's the only known person in the series to have two KG, it's highly likely she'd be known to be from at least on clan that had one, and thus she'd have been an obvious target of Tobi!"Madara"'s persecution. It's only due to tactics and teamwork that Team 7 are able to defeat her.Thanks to my mobile phone browser not going to the right spot, I missed this post of yours. She's the god of shinobi and basically just has raw power. Kaguya is immensely more powerful than Naruto or Sasuke but her weakness is that she isn't a shinobi. Naruto, B, Guy and Kakashi had to use tactics to figure out Tobi's abilities and counter them for example. Yes, even in the war arc there's multiple moments of the characters overcoming the enemies' overwhelming power with clever ideas. No they just free Kakashi who then goes to overpower Zabuza.Įven if we are to make up that this "tactics > power" rule exists, it still exists throughout the series. Earlier in that same arc Naruto and Sasuke manage to trick Zabuza with clever tactics but it doesn't defeat him. Like someone pointed out, Naruto beats Haku by just powering up and punching him. Tactics come and go in Naruto depending on the situation. I feel like people sometimes make up what Naruto was about only to say it abandoned its main theme when in reality, it never was that way. "Tactics and strategy beat raw power" was never a hard rule of Naruto. And when he does come out, have it come at a cost that doesn't boil down to "Naruto is tuckered out for a bit" Treat the Kyubi as like a nuclear power that should only be brought out in the utmost crisis situation. If I could go back and re-edit Naruto into a new story, then I wouldn't really change the dynamic of how Part 1 handled it, but decrease the frequency of it and give Naruto some W's that he got on his own. Meanwhile, Sasuke is doing his own version of this where he progresses his Sharingan into 3 dots and uses the full curse. Naruto doesn't really use his tactics to outplay Sasuke's Sharingan, he mostly just keeps dipping more and more into Kyubi's power while being hyper emo about how sad he is that Sasuke isn't his friend. Tactics never left that aspect, but Naruto rarely ever brought down an opponent without the raw power offered by Kyubi.īut if there is a moment it was abandoned, it was probably the climactic fight between Naruto and Sasuke at the end of Part 1. Same thing with the Gaara fight where he used Kyubi Chakra to summon the toad boss to be on par with Gaara's giant form. It was more to establish that the Kyubi is a great power, but one that can't be relied on and when Kyubi wasn't in play, Naruto had to rely on his tactics.Īnd that's a cool dynamic, but Kishimoto both played it out too frequently and it became more and more of Naruto's main tactic.įor example, Neji fight, Naruto won through tactics by digging underground and hitting Neji where he couldn't see, but only after using Kyubi to boost his chakra stamina past where he would normally be defeated. Click to shrink.That was more acceptable as it was clearly a special moment that wouldn't really occur frequently.
