TL;DR Power rankings in Naruto are often debated and vary based on criteria such as combat ability, intelligence, and versatility. Characters like Ōnoki, Danzo, and Ay frequently appear near the top due to their unique abilities and strategic importance.
Criteria for Ranking
The criteria used to rank characters can significantly affect their placement. Some lists focus solely on combat prowess, while others consider factors like intelligence and support abilities [2:2]
[3:1]. For example, Karin is noted for her intelligence and Uzumaki clan abilities, making her a strong support ninja despite not being at Kage level in direct combat
[3:1].
Top Tier Characters
Characters like Ōnoki, Gaara, and Ay are frequently ranked highly due to their powerful jutsu and strategic value in team settings [5:1]. Ōnoki's Jinton technique is particularly praised for its ability to bypass defenses, while Gaara's sand manipulation offers both offensive and defensive capabilities
[5]. Ay's speed and strength make him a formidable opponent, though his versatility compared to Tsunade is debated
[5:7].
Controversial Rankings
Danzo's ranking is contentious due to his possession of Shisui’s Kotoamatsukami and the ability to use Izanagi multiple times [5:3]. While some argue he should be above the other Kages, others point to his struggles against Sasuke as evidence of his limitations
[5:2]. The power creep introduced in Boruto has also led to debates about characters like Borushiki and Kawaschiki, with some arguing they should be higher due to their Otsutsuki heritage
[4:6].
Intelligence and Strategy
Intelligence plays a crucial role in determining a character's effectiveness in battle. Characters like Shikamaru and Itachi are often highlighted for their strategic thinking, which allows them to leverage seemingly low-tier abilities to great effect [3:3]
[3:5]. However, this doesn't always translate to higher power rankings, as raw combat ability remains a significant factor.
Overall, Naruto character power rankings are subjective and depend heavily on the criteria used for evaluation. Discussions often reveal differing opinions on the importance of combat skills versus strategic acumen and support roles.
I guess the main surprise for me was seeing Akamaru ranked so highly.
Cute puppy in og Naruto, good boy in shippuden. Isn't much to hate as someone who loves dogs as much as I do
How tf did you forget rin she is basically the reason for the 4th great shinobi war.
I don't remember faces of characters I don't find interesting
Yet karin is on there
You put Rinn under the “who” sections. BRO SHES DEAD lol
The who section is for people I don't remember
Based on what?
How much I enjoy them as characters. If this was power scaling it'd probably be the most inaccurate list of all time
Temari deserves better.
Yeah, I was just curious what your criteria were 👍
Looks at name of lowest tier.
Correct.
Needs more tiers.
Yeah, I felt the same. Any ideas for extra tiers?
I feel like legendary is a little vague. Below 6th paths the rankings I use are:
Nation level (Minato is probably the weakest person here)
Multi Kage Destroyer (5ks Sasuke could be the weakest person here if you're optimistic on him)
High Kage (I normally have ohnoki at the top of this)
Mid Kage (I don't normally use this actually but you're including a lot of characters)
Low Kage (Tsunade is probably at the top of this. Combat only obviously she has out of combat healing others don't)
High Jonin,
Mid jonin,
Low Jonin,
Chunin,
Genin
Civilian
You've got some good takes on here and some I strongly disagree with. (Raikage way too high, but glad to see more people are ranking kimmimaro kage level. If you add more tiers it will become easier to engage with.
Well going from the top to the bottom, Hamura was said to be on par with Hagoromo before he got ten tails so he should at the very least be right behind Madara since Hamura also had the tenseigan. The next row has edo Madara below alive final valley Madara even though edo Madara had rinnegan and infinite chakra.
The kage tier is by far the one filled with most of the problems. Why are so many people below berserk Obito? There's no way that version is above Tobirama, ems Sasuke, both forms of Itachi, the third raikage, Mu, Ohnoki, etc. On top of that, you have yellow mask Obito above orange mask, even though orange mask Obito is the more matured version.
You have Danzo above the fourth raikage, Killer Bee and Ohnoki, all of which beat mangekyou Sasuke with ease. Hebi Sasuke is way too high and is high jonin level. At that point in the series, Sasuke can't beat any bloodlusted kage in a straight one on one fight. Another extremely glaring issue is that you have Darui at mid jonin level when the dude beat Ginkaku AND Kinkaku, both of which are high kage level on your list.
Hidan is low kage level even though Shikamaru beat him and he's only chunin tier. There's still a lot of issues to go over and another thing is that I feel like there might need to be another tier added because way too many people are in kage tier that definitely don't qualify
Your ranked kid Obito far too high. He has not mastered Kamui at this point and has no feats besides beating some fodder. I wouldn’t put him above Hebi Sasuke. Also I would rank Itachi above sage mode Naruto.
well you put goza and meizu above a sasuke that’s stronger than the sasuke that beat them and you think sasuke retrieval arc butterfly choji is stronger than war arc choji. this is actually the most insane list i have ever seen. excellent rage bait i give it a 10/10
There are a lot of characters to analyze, so some choices might come off as strange 😅
As for Chōji, I don't actually think War Arc Butterfly Chōji is weaker than Sasuke Retrieval Arc Butterfly Chōji — I just believe that any version of Chōji with Butterfly Mode is way stronger than any version of him without it, regardless of the arc.
Appreciate the comment though, loved the energy lol
Haku is not genin bro he is chuunin at least
Yeah, I was wrong about him :(
This list has way too many problems
Every list does
Deidara, Kakazu, and Killer B should be a tier higher. Everything else looks fine for the most part.
I think all the tiers are REALLY broad but I think you’re seriously underrating the Sannin, Pain, Hiruzen, but most egregiously Karin. Karin is one of the most sheerly intelligent characters and her Uzumaki clan abilities are beyond immensely powerful. She’s possibly the best support ninja in the series
That doesn't make her kage level in terms of ability though. If intelligence is what determined rank, then shika, itachi, and kabuto would be god tier lol
I think intelligence is a major factor in how strong a ninja one is. Shadow position jutsu is a low tier jutsu but the way shikimaru uses it makes him a great ninja. Then again I think Karin is in the correct spot because she is exactly that, a support ninja. She would likely lose a one on one fight between everyone else ranked on this list
Hinata should be a little higher
Doing my man yamato dirty
very cool idea.
Sameer
Boruschiki and Kawaschiki aren't that far away in terms of powers. How can an Otsutsuki not be Otsutsuki level? That doesn't make any sense. Lol. Plus...Naruto in the same tier as Boruschiki?
Momoshiki isn't able to use his full strength yet inside of kid Boruto. And what do you mean Six Paths Naruto in the same tier? Naruto was able to hit the Truth Seeking Orbs using the signature Uzumaki Dab Kick. So i don't really understand what you mean by Naruto being there
The powers are there though. You can't put an Otsutsuki on a level that isn't Otustsuki. It doesn't make any sense. It is like not putting a Kage on Kage level. You did several stages of Otsutsuki, so if Borushiki can't use his full power he should be at least Otsutsuki level.
Naruto was able to hit the Truth Seeking Orbs using the signature Uzumaki Dab Kick.
So? And that alone puts Naruto on Otustsuki level but an Otsutsuki himself not, just because he can't use his full power? Whaaat?
They’re far away . Isshiki is much stronger than momoshiki and their powers are based on the otsotsuki .
I was asking the same. How can an Otsutsuki not be on Otsutsuki level?
Forget borushiki this whole list seems to have been made without taking account of the power creep that was introduced in the series.
It is not my intention to be rude but sorry, some rankings are a disgrace to the characters.
Oh my god. This list. Lol. KARMA Boruto in low Jonin. I just spit out my coffee. Dude are you serious? BASE kid Boruto was already confirmed by Kakashi to be on Chunin Level while he was still an Academy student.
And Boruschiki who is on Otsutsuki is not on Otsutsuki level?LMAO.
You are very biased towards Naruto. That's for sure. Borushiki should be higher in my opinion.
It's not really that i don't like Boruto it's just because Borushiki isn't at Full potential like how kid naruto was nine tails tier for example
Kid-Naruto and kid-Boruto's situations are not even remotely comparable. Naruto had Kurama sealed inside him and trying to escape. An outside power he obviously could not understand, control, or even contain without help. Boruto, on the other hand, was himself genetically turned into an Otsutsuki and suffused with the combat experience accumulated by Momoshiki. His body was turned into something that could naturally wield Otsutsuki powers without any effort or need for help.
The further the Otsutsufication of his body progressed, the more naturally his abilities came to him. He didn't need to find a means to control them. It just happened. By the time he turned 100% Otsutsuki, he said it himself that something's changed and that he could now properly use Momoshiki's powers.
Karma is that broken. It turns a child into a godlike being in no time at all. The power-creep in the Boruto series is insane. You should not take OG Naruto as a reference for how power-scaling would work.
Shisui should not be god tier
Including Danzou, how would you rank him and the 5 Kages of the Fourth Ninja War? For me:
1 - Ōnoki: Jinton that can bypass every fucking defense, can fly, best doton ever, saved the other 4 Kages from the Mokuton: Kajukai Kourin and is smart as fuck.
2 - Gaara: He can fly, turn any place into a desert, has fuinjutsu, sensory abilities, an automatic defense as fast as Ay in his V2 Cloak, can bury enemies miles underground, and is the smartest of the Kages, despite being the least experienced. (Interchangeable with Danzo and Ay, tbh)
3 - Ay: Easily the fastest, the most durable of the Kages, the second strongest, with an arguably better offense than Tsunade due to his speed. He completely negated Sasuke’s MS taijutsu, has Bijuu-level chakra, and is strong enough to rip off the Hachibi’s horn. (Interchangeable with Gaara and Danzo)
4 - Danzo: 10 Izanagis, Mokuton, the best Fuuton in the series, would have tied with MS Sasuke if not for Obito, some of the best fuinjutsu techniques in the series, and is one of the most experienced Kages along with Ohnoki. (Interchangeable with Gaara and Ay)
5 - Tsunade: Physically the strongest of the Kages, capable of breaking a Susanoo with her punches. She has the best summon among them, the best healing abilities, probably the highest stamina, and managed to survive after being cut in half.
6 - Mei: She ranks last because her feats outside of ninjutsu are very limited. Her offensive capabilities are great, but we don’t see much regarding her durability, taijutsu, genjutsu defense, fuinjutsu, speed, etc.
Tsunade bullies Danzo. She keeps up with an amped Raikage in fighting Madara. Danzo had to take a hostage against MS Sasuke and lost.
None of the 5 kage would have struggled as much against Sasuke as Danzo did.
I think Gaara has a decent argument for being above Oonoki since you think Ay doesnt immediate speed blitz either one
You’re seriously underestimating Danzo. He only grabbed Karin at first because he himself stated that he couldn’t use everything he had against Sasuke since he still had to fight Obito afterward.
None of the Kages would struggle that much against MS Sasuke? 😭 Ay was literally planning to sacrifice his life just to take Sasuke down, how would they not have a hard time? Mei, for example, would be the easiest victim of all time.
And Ay speed is probably relative to Gaara’s sand. Plus, both Gaara and Ōnoki can fly and take him out from a distance anyway.
I’m not underestimating Danzo. I’m challenging your ranking on Tsunade. She fought full bodied susanoos and has regen that Madara concedes is actually decent.
Yes, Ay thought Bee died and didn’t care about sacrificing his own life. This says nothing about how he’d fight under different circumstances, and unlike Danzo, Ay would have also killed Sasuke doing so.
Danzo admitting inferiority to Hiruzen throughout their lives means any Sannin will scale to a Hokage in base: Jiraiya was begged to become one, Oro was a contender, Tsunade was one. Since all the Sannin are relative to one another in base, and Oro nearly beat Old Hiruzen who trains Sasuke, the idea Danzo > Tsunade is cope bro
Mei bullied sasuke in their encounter tho. Normal MS Sasuke is not that strong and got carried by zetsu chakra supply
Ay's speed is Not relative to gaaras sand lmao Ay in v2 isn't always going max speed gaara just blocked a lightning speed drop kick which really isn;t that impressive considering Ay can go way faster than that .
Yeah Danzo is too old and way past his prime
I guess the same goes for Ohnoki but he’s not really a physical fighter
Honestly I’d put Danzo above any of the 5 Kage. Dude has Shisui’s Kotoamatsukami AND the ability to spam Izangi 10-11 times in a row. Just based off of that alone he could win 1v1’s with most characters in the verse. Because even if your fast enough to blitz him before he activates Koto he can just return from the dead and try again
Also a lot of people hold it against him that he lost to 5KS Sasuke but
The version of Sasuke that he fought was stronger than the version of Sasuke that the other Gokage fought
Danzo couldn’t use Kotoamatsukami on Sasuke because his eye was recharging from using it on Mifune earlier that day
Danzo was holding back against Sasuke to have enough chakra to fight Obito afterwards
Ay needed the Onoki backpack amp to match Tsunade's AP. He's not better offensively than Tsunade.
So you completely ignored when i said “arguably”, and i said this cuz:
They are relative in offense.
Where are you getting that Ay is 1000x faster than Tsunade? What feat does he have that's scales his speed like that? He's fast but not fast enough to blitz her. Tsunade shattered Madara's Susanoo with one punch while Ay could only crack it and that's with Onoki's amp. Also how the heck is he more versatile? Everything he has is offensive, Tsunade can heal and has a boss. summon.
Why is Naruto’s face up Onoki’s ass?
Ranking not based in 1v1 but as value in a team.
This is my attempt to make a tier list for Naruto characters in 1 on 1 combat. This will list their overall power level or threat level in the verse in terms of 1 on 1 combat
Hard to do since Naruto is more complex then just a base power level system but I tried. This will take into account feats as well as portrayal and authorial intent via lore, hype, statement etc etc
Note some abbreviations have been used such as
SM = Sage mode
P1 = Part 1
WA = War Arc
I also didn’t go into founders tier or anyone below kage level
Here’s the list!
Beyond Conventional kage level Nagato [Edo] Kabuto Yakushi [WA, no ET] Minato Namikaze [Hokage] / Itachi Uchiha [Edo] KCM1 Naruto / EMS Sasuke [Kabuto fight] Obito [Orange mask] Tobirama Senju [Edo] Killer Bee [WA] Hanzo of the Salamander [Prime] Pain [PA]
High Kage Naruto Uzumaki [PA SM] / Sasuke Uchiha [Hypothetical V4 Susanoo] / Sakura Haruno [WA] Itachi Uchiha [Sick] Sasuke [FKS Danzo fight V3 susanoo] Orochimaru [P1 & ET] Might Guy [WA, No 8G] / Kakashi Hatake [WA, No DMS] Jiriaya [SM] Third Raikage Mu [WA] / Gengetsu Hozuki [WA] Orochimaru [P1, No ET] Danzo Shimura Hiruzen [Edo] Sasuke Uchiha [V2 Susanoo] Onoki [Will of Stone] Tsunade Senju [WA] Fourth Raikage A [WA] / Sasuke [Ribcage Susanoo only] Gaara [WA]
Average Kage Level Base Orochimaru [P1] Old Hiruzen A4 [Third Shinobi War] Hebi Sasuke Onoki [Pre will of Stone] Kisame Hoshigaki Mei Terumi Naruto Uzumaki [V2 four tails] Kn4 fight Orochimaru / Base Jiriaya Sasori Animal path Deidara Third Kazekage Base Tsunade [WA] Rasa / Bos Gaara P1 Edo Hashirama Kakashi Hatake [PA] / Gai [PA No 8G] Kakazu Konan Chiyo P1 Edo Tobirama Hidan
are the members of one tier ordered in power or are they all supposed to be similarly strong?
if you used tiermaker it would've been easier to see whos in what tier
there are some weirds things like WA Gaara being one tier above the Third Kazekage despite the databook and all characters pretty much stating the Third is the strongest of all time
All the statements of the Thrid Kazekage being stronger than Gaara were in Bos or at best pre FKS
Gaara got a good buff in the war and even FKS with him blocking Amaterasu when he previously had his sand dodged by Deidara on the ground no flight
So I think the buff invalidates those statements a bit as Gaara improved, similar to Orochimaru being stated above Kakashi in P1 doesn’t mean Orochimaru beats Kakashi with the DMS
>All the statements of the Thrid Kazekage being stronger than Gaara were in Bos or at best pre FKS
They include WA indirectly as well because Rasa was able to fight on par with Gaara.
I like that the War Arc got its own little entry/part instead of being grouped into Shippuden.
Nope!!
EMS MADARA
A tier below Hashirama. Both of these guys are arguably above beyond high kage
Or at least Madara is beyond high kage at this point, same realm as BSM Naruto, Nagato, late war arc EMS Sasuke, Sage Kabuto
Then
EDO RINNEGAN MADARA
This guy you could arguably call the 3rd sage Of six paths after Nagato, and hagoromo , straight up,
ALIVE SAGE ONE EYE—RINNEGAN MADARA
Very few people can deal with him, if any, limbo is cracked , but even without the limbo factor, he’s just inane, very few are hanging with, dabs amp, so that’s also a. Huge amp ,maybe idk I csnt think of anyone.
Next
ONE-EYE JUUBIDARA
He’s a six paths/otsusuki level character, you’d need hax speed (gai) to deal with him or a six paths buff, like Sasuke or Naruto got
Then
They have a brief fight with Madara , Madara is fine,gets his eye, and we can assume this is ANOTHER HUGE AMP and guys, let’s not pretend getting a Rinnegan isn’t a stats amp
Now listen,
All we saw was him reappear with his Rinnegan, not move at all as his shadows blocked Sakuras dumb attack
Like, Madara himself didn’t move if I recall, then he said enough and flew up and did the CT that held everybody up
JUST A CT HELD EVERYBODY UP
Madara getting beaten doesn’t seem possible if he was using all of his Juubi enhanced techniques and stats we never got to see because he got backstabbed
So if you take him at his peak
3–EYE JUUBIDARA
Same as Dual Rinnegan Juubidara but with the 3rd eye and access to Tsukuyomi? Perhaps another stats buff?
Now let’s take **this version of Juubidara , and All of his abilities, base chakra, sage chakra amp, hashi cells amp, Juubi amp, regen, flight, susanno, wood style
This man realistically is still a menace in Boruto
it's not really downplay when it's true. a handful of boruto characters were affected by massive powercreep and stand leagues above any shipuuden character because of that. just Jigen alone is most definitely quite a but above Kaguya and was clearly far above naruto and sasuke in their prime
and then there's quite a few characters who are stronger than Jigen:
-Unlimited code (just generally stronger than Jigen)
-Daemon and Boruto who shat all over that code, Kawaki who with karma is even stronger than Boruto (a tier above unlimited code)
-Jura who toyed with Boruto and Kawaki, the latter said that even 2v1 they have no hope of beating him (at least a tier above Boruto and Kawaki, maybe even two tiers above them)
there's also some other shinju who may be strong like Mamushi (pushed Boruto a little, may fight Daemon later on since his target is Eida) and Hidari (was made of sasuke and may scale far above sasuke if he's affected by powercreep too). all the shinju are strong in general since even Matsuri seemingly low-diffed tf outta adult Gaara and shinki, so at minimum they're far beyond a regular kage-tier fighter (Matsuri wasn't even exhausted or injured after she beat them)
these characters just really are leagues above shippuuden. but I agree if you meant the few idiots who think the whole boruto cast is above shippuden, like some mfers saying Darui scales really high because he tussled with base momoshiki a bit. only the handful of the strongest of boruto characters are affected by massive powercreep, the rest isn't anything special by shippuuden standards. other than the ones mentioned above, only jima, mitsuki and sarada will be affected by powercreep too, EoS they'll definitely be leagues above naruto and sasuke too.
I haven't read Ur description(sorry) but here's how I scale them.
Every single current kage is THE WEAKEST kage that we've seen in action from their respective villages.
Ohnoki and Muu>Kurotsuchi. Ay3 and Ay4>Darui. Mei>Yagura.
Adult Konohamaru is AT MOST Pain Arc Naruto level. And he'll still lose in a 1v1 against PA SM Naruto.
Kaguya is the 2nd strongest otsutsuki that we've seen in action. No, the guy who got killed by a regular massive Rasengan is NOT stronger than Kaguya.
3 eyed Juubidara is AT LEAST in the top 5 STRONGEST characters from both Naruto and Borutoverse.( Isshiki,Kaguya,Naruto,Sasuke,Madara)
It's not dragon ball z where "happens later=probably stronger".
But the problem becomes if you’re putting Isshiki/Jigen in the top 5 then it’s stated Code is stronger than him, and Boruto himself one shot Code.
So now you have to place everyone on Code’s tier or higher in the top five which is most relevant characters in TBV, which now scales down Isshiki/Juubidara/Kaguya etc etc
Code was only stated to be above Jigen while Isshiki is stronger than both Jigen and Code.
>But the problem becomes if you’re putting Isshiki/Jigen in the top 5 then it’s stated Code is stronger than him, and Boruto himself one shot Code.
It was NEVER stated that code was stronger than Isshiki.
He was only stated to be stronger than jigen. And we don't even know if they were talking about base jigen or karma mark jigen, or even if they were referring to base jigen or post 10 tails' chakra absorption jigen.
that's not really how it can be when we Jigen and characters stronger than him exist
Top-tier: Jura
Isshiki tier: current Kawaki with Karma active, revived Isshiki, Boruto (no Karma) and Daemon (in no particular order)
Stronger than Jigen tier: Unlimited Code, maybe some shinju (Mamushi could push Boruto a bit)
Jigen tier: Jigen
old gen top-tier: Kaguya, was clearly shown to be significantly stronger than Madara. Ig Momoshiki (fused) is around here too
last version of Madara
shipuuden Naruto and Sasuke since they had to 2v1 madara. adult naruto and sasuke may be as high as Kaguya-tier individually but who knows
Jigen already shits all over adult naruto and sasuke 1v2 with ease. revived isshiki is way stronger than Jigen, but it was never said how much stronger exactly. even isshiki>unlimited code is merely an assumption, that was never stated in the manga. from the manga all we know is that both isshiki and unlimited code are stronger than Jigen. and there are other characters who have already clapped unlimited code quite easily, them being Daemon and Boruto (+Kawaki who with Karma is above Boruto). these guys are probably around Isshiki level already as they are significantly above unlimited code who already is stronger than Jigen. Even assuming Isshiki is a tier above unlimited code, these guys are on that level
And Jura is so ridiculously strong that Kawaki thought even him and Boruto combined cannot defeat him, so it's basically a Jigen scenario all over again (the two strongest get wrecked even in a 2v1 against the strongest), he clearly stands in a tier of his own. He was able to catch Boruto with Mokuton while he was literally just standing around and not even moving
idk why you even included Naruto and Sasuke who were kicked out by powercreep. Daemon, Jura, Boruto and Kawaki are all leagues above unlimited code who >Jigen who obliterated Naruto and Sasuke combined. the strongest versions of Naruto and Sasuke barely make it into the top 10 rn and they will undoubtedly be kicked down lower too.
most of the boruto cast gets negged ofc, but the strongest characters of boruto scale leagues above him. daemon would low-diff the strongest version of madara with taijutsu only and his hands tied behind his back due to the sheer powercreep
Absurd.
People these days say Juubidara is stronger than Jigen and still Madara is downplayed? Hell NAH. Stop the cap.
That is because juubidara is stronger than jigen? He isn't stronger than isshiki tho, if you meant that
I know that he isnt stronger.
You cant say Madara is downplayed when they are people out there saying Juubidara is stronger than Jigen.
Hashirama was able to beat him before he had the rinnegan. But once he got the rinnegan he's beyond ninja level and cannot be 1v1. Poêple talk about 8th gate guy, but guy needed the help of Gaara, kakashi's kamui, minato's teleports and lee's 6th gate. Literally 3 kages working and helping guy and that still wasn't enough.
Not even mentioning how he toyed with the whole tailed beasts (including Naruto and bee) WITH HIS EYES CLOSED
Well. Base momo was bullied by gaara and darui, while kinshiki was beated by kurotsuchi and chojuro.
Except Naruto and gaara, other kages are inferior versions of WA kages.
If 2 of them could defeat momo, then these guys are on relative power level. Kages were also handicapped, being unable to use ninjutsu against momo.
Edo madara shitstomped 5 kages, while playing with them for example.
Chunin level kids were shown reacting to both Momo and isshiki.
You can't have such shit happening if you want your villains to feel strong.
Imagine kid Naruto blocking or doing anything to kisame or itachi.
I disagree with nearly all your rankings respectfully:
I’d have them in this order:
1- Naruto
2- Hashirama
3- Kakashi (Novel feats)
4- Minato
5- Tobirama
6- Kakashi (no novel feats)
7- Hiruzen
8- Tsunade
9- Danzo
10- Shikamaru
Not scaling Prime Hiruzen as he’s featless.
Yeah, it's kinda funny how different our rankings are. I definitely disagree with a lot of this, but there's nothing outrageous and all your placements can be defended. However there are 2 things I'd like to mention.
I actually agree with your Kakashi placement if it's strictly using his feats as Hokage. But Kakashi was Hokage for years and quit right before Boruto, so I believe it's reasonable to assume his strength in Boruto would be about how strong he was at the end of his time as Hokage. In the Boruto anime (stated to be cannon) Kakashi goes relative to Kashin Koji, who could fight Jigen and was confident in defeating Delta. So if you're only considering feats from his time as Hokage, that's fair. But I think his Boruto feats are valid.
Shikamaru scales to adult Naruto, as he dodged a kick from Delta, who could fight adult Naruto. She's also an inner Kara member, which are stated to have Otsutsuki level power. His speed should be well beyond any of the Kage before his other than Naruto and Kakashi, so I think he should be much higher. Although he doesn't really have any AP feats so it's a bit weird. But blitz and shadow possess should be a valid win-con anyway.
Shikamaru is still planetary at dodging
saying shikamaru scales to adult naruto is crazy
I think this is just correct, or at least super close. My love of Edo Tensei makes me want to put Tobirama above Minato, but the war made them seem so relative that I think those two are the most debatable.
Kakashi > minato? (I didnt read the LN)
Naruto > Hashirama > Minato(KCM) > Kakashi(Novel feats) > Hiruzen > Minato(Alive) > Tobirama > Tsunade > Danzo > Shikamaru
I disagree with tobirama > minato, but I have them close.
I dont think kakashi has the scaling to put him that high. All we know is that hes stronger than when he fought obito and madara (thus not dms).
Naruto > DMS Kakashi > Hashirama > Minato > Tobirama > Tsunade > Hiruzen > Base Kakashi > Shikamaru.
dog's shit tbh
Why so?
Funny stuff. So many things wrong.
Which part is wrong
I don’t want to sound like a gatekeeper, I hate them, but did you fully finish all of Shippuden and Part 1? I’m not talking about 1 or 2 things wrong , more like 20. A lot of below average, exceptional and overpowered are wrong. By the way, no one on this list is below average except for Iruka and kid Kiba.
Normal gai and 8 gates gai are counted
But all the other gates are omitted
His 6 and 7 gates are still incredibly strong, and if we attribute those as techniques of his base form and leave 8 out i think he should rank higher
I didn’t choose the pictures so I only used what I saw I’m not gonna put 6 and 7 feats apart of base gai but your input is thanked
Feel like Minato would not be out of place in God-Tier. Mfs legit had a retreat on sight on him during the 3rd ninja war.
He’s only outweighed by those above him but I still consider him overpowered not god tier
How you gonna insult sasuke like that
I don’t like him. He’s a filthy Uchiher he’s lucky he’s that high I could’ve put him in with the other 🗑
Imagine calling Part 1 Neiji, Sasuke, Kimimaro, Shino, Haku and Naruto "Below Average".
The clownery.
i’m really curious what everyone thinks about how this guy ranks the “strongest” characters in boruto
Spot on but I’d put BM Naruto 3rd n drop Isshiki 4th
Baryon mode Naruto is stronger than Isshiki
If BM Naruto was stronger he would've beat Isshiki but he didn't.
In a different timeline kawaki was killed by code.... Code is stronger than kawaki
Idk if I’d put Jura that low under Boruto considering Jura kills him in multiple futures according to Koji
Code > Kawaki (assuming he still has offensive limiters)
Jura is definitely >>> Isshiki
i was thinking the same thing. i also thought about switching code and kawaki around at least until we see what kawaki is really capable of. as of right now i don’t think he’s stronger than nL code.
We will see after his limiters are off since it’s implied he can compete with the shinjus, and code was embarrassed by them
we still can't talk about Boruto and Daemon because they are very different than others. (Daemon has never started fighting and Boruto is holding back) also Jura is more powerful than boruto by what koji seems to be talking about.
Daemon isn't stronger than isshiki and Naruto, let alone boruto, Naruto in baryon mode literally clears the verse minus shibai.
Really? I'm totally bad at this.🥹
Thanks.
Respectfully this ranking is utter bullshit.
** 1. Shibai ** 2. Baryon naruto ** 3. Isshiki ** 4. Daemon (could be jura, but i just cant see him beating daemon yet) ** 5. Jura ** 6. Boruto ** 7., 8., 9., 10. The rest of the shinju ** 11. Code
naruto character power rankings
Key Considerations for Naruto Character Power Rankings:
Character Development: Power levels often correlate with character growth throughout the series. Consider how characters evolve in terms of abilities and skills.
Jutsu and Abilities: Look at the variety and strength of jutsu (techniques) a character possesses. Unique abilities, like the Sharingan or Sage Mode, can significantly impact rankings.
Battle Experience: Characters with extensive battle experience or those who have faced powerful opponents tend to rank higher due to their tactical skills and adaptability.
Tiers of Power: The Naruto universe has different tiers, such as Genin, Chunin, Jonin, and Kage. Characters who reach Kage level or possess god-like abilities (like Naruto and Sasuke in the later series) are typically ranked higher.
Fan Consensus: Rankings can vary widely among fans, so checking multiple sources or fan polls can provide a broader perspective.
Popular Rankings:
Naruto Uzumaki: As the Seventh Hokage and a Jinchuriki, he possesses immense chakra and powerful jutsu, including Sage Mode and Kurama's power.
Sasuke Uchiha: With the Rinnegan and mastery of Sharingan techniques, Sasuke is a formidable opponent with high tactical intelligence.
Madara Uchiha: Known for his incredible strength, mastery of the Sharingan, and the Rinnegan, Madara is often considered one of the strongest villains.
Kaguya Otsutsuki: As a god-like figure with reality-warping abilities, she is frequently ranked at the top due to her overwhelming power.
Hashirama Senju: The First Hokage, known for his Wood Release techniques and immense chakra reserves, is often regarded as one of the strongest shinobi.
