Naruto to Boruto Discussion Thread

Something else you discovered?

I didn't discover it, but it was pointed out to me that this statement is whack.

"ナルトお前は確かに強くなった オレと肩を並べるかそれ以上だ。。

Naruto, you've certainly gotten stronger. You might be able to stand shoulder to shoulder with me… or even surpass me.

Which to me implies parity between them, at least more so than the Viz version.
And to me that makes a fair bit of sense given that BoS Naruto wasn't terribly far off of Kakashi, so him getting to Kakashi's level after training for a bit and "surpassing him" with the FRS makes a lot of sense to me the more I think about it.

Interesting that you brought this up.
Based on this, how strong do you think Sasukemaru (Hebi Sasuke basically) actually was?

Personally, there is no real difference. Sasuke was already stronger than Orochimaru’s Yin Chakra at that point with just his CSM 1 + 3 TM and he was actively suppressing that power after he overtook Orochimaru.

This is going to be a nuanced take, but this is essentially how I see it breaking down: In order to gain the increased healing benefit from the Power of The White Snake, Sasuke has to be using Oro’s Yin Chakra to some degree (Just like Naruto get’s his healing factor through Kurama’s chakra influence), but at the same time, Sasuke is mostly suppressing Orochimaru’s power.

So for the same reason Tsunade is argued to not be at 100% output due to keeping her youthful appearance, it could be argued Hebi Sasuke isn’t 100% due to actively keeping Orochimaru suppressed.

If it were a point system it’ll be:

1. BoShippuden Sasuke = 100%
2. Orochimaru’s Yin Chakra = +1
3. Sasuke Suppressing Chakra = -0.95

So in this Example, Hebi Sasuke would be basically equivalent to Sasuke w/o Orochimaru because in mostly suppressing that power, he makes the gains negligible (Hebi Sasuke = 100% + 0.05).

NOTE: The numbers are arbitrary, just to illustrate my thinking on it. It’s unquantifiable at the end of the day.

Errr

This number 9 large will rickroll any filthy, simping Uchiha in sight, Harambe will revive and take his rightful place above these inferior creatures

Yeah, nobody is forced to do this at all, but it sure does help us visualize and keep track of large scaling chains. It also helps us take notice of any circular scaling more easily. Won't be surprised if this practice becomes more common among future HST CRTs Arc, KT, & US69

Gotta say, Slayer's bible of a retort is more convincing to me atm. Especially since he's negging that poo poo SM Nard physicals ~ SM RS scaling finally

I need to read/watch that as an Aka stan (even though I hear it's very different from Oshi no Ko)

It's pretty great, highly recommend.

Pretty sure he was talking about Zetsu's mama tho? In which case, L take

There are not more than like, 2 women at most on here.

Why did they only use the 30% clones once? That's such a good jutsu.

Tenchi Bridge is the worst arc in Naruto imo, but that's praise for the series as a whole more than criticism of the arc; I love Sai and Yamato, and the 4T Naruto vs Oro fight/Sasuke reunion are peak

Also this is your first full read of the series right?

W takes. (I think some portions of the WA and IPM are slightly worse tho imo)

 

[MinatoSparkle]

Yeah

What are ur initial thoughts on P1 as a whole?

 

[SlendVeny]

SFT arc. They wouldn't have to run. Oro could use it during the SRA while he was going through his procedure.

Many more too.

Not sure what you're referring to

Oro could use it during the SRA while he was going through his procedure.

Many more too.

He can't use it, it's Pain's jutsu. Also I doubt he could focus on maintaining it and controlling it while in that state (we know after all that Itachi and Kisame had to sit still and keep a hand sign up the whole time)

 

[Ped2018]

Pretty damn good, every arc is better than the last and Sasuke Recovery Mission is easily the best arc in the series (of those i've read of course)

And yes, i'm saying that Search for Tsunade > Konoha Crush > Chunin Exams > Land of the Waves

 

[UchihaSlayer96]

Don't like the LoW/CE downplay, like the Naruto praise, so I'll let it slide (also CE and KC are the same arc imma be so fr)

nah let him, Chunin Exams HELLA glazed
Land of Waves deserves its flowers but its a lil glazed

Sasuke Retrieval and Search for tsunade deserve all the hype and lowkey dont get enough

I think SRA gets enough, SFT not so much

 

[UchihaSlayer96]

SFT not so much

Not nearly enough imo.

 

[MinatoSparkle]

Not nearly enough imo.

Kinda wild considering it introduces Itachi and has Naruto learning his ultimate move for the rest of the series p much, ig they just don't appreciate Tsunade enough

 

[UchihaSlayer96]

ig they just don't appreciate Tsunade enough

DING DING DING

 

[NeoKingOfLight]

For me, the worst arc is Kazekage Rescue Arc but it’s not a “bad” arc though.

 

[Ped2018]

Don't like the LoW/CE downplay

Not downplay, it is a good arc.

The thing is, it is just too raw/crude if compared to later arcs.

 

[Ped2018]

Hidan's first line in his introduction is his own downplay... He's ass man

 

[MinatoSparkle]

Not downplay, it is a good arc.
