Genin-Hinata post graduation- maybe a jutsu or 2, can handle bandits and weaker fodder ninja.

Chunin-Sasuke post graduation-can comfortably fight decently strong ninja, has a few jutsu.

Special Jonin-Hayate-Same as Chunin except in one area they’re so good they could be considered Jonin level in that specific area. Ex. Kenjutsu

Jonin-Kurenai-can fight other elite ninja, has a decent amount of jutsu under their belt.

Genin is known to greatly vary in strength, due to it containing both ninja who barely passed the academy and prodigies who just haven't had a chance to take the Chunin exams yet. 

Iruka is the average strength for a Chunin. I feel like that's the rank that is most consistent in strength because it's shown that ninja are often quickly promoted to Join from Chunin if they're strong enough (in the anime, they can skip Chunin all together). 

Jonin is also hard to average because while there is a floor in strength level, there's no ceiling as there isn't a higher rank besides Kage. Maybe around Asuma?

This is a deceptively difficult question as most of the ninja we follow are not typical. All the sensei are above average Jonin, and all the genin of the Konoha 12 use incredibly unique fighting styles.

Genin: Sakura or Ino

Chunin: Izumo or Kotetsu

Special Jonin: Gemma & Radio (excluding FTG)

Jonin: Hayama Shirakumo, or Tekuno Kanane (these are filler characters, but they are the most detailed examples of regular jonin actually fighting) as even Asuma or Kurneai are far above your average Jonin.

Anbu: Fu & Torune, they are the best of Root, but based on our limited insight fairly representative of an average Anbu.

Anbu Captain: Part I Kakashi, Yamato, Kid Itachi.

Everyone but leaf ninja are mostly garbage except the kage and their aids

Genin: You have just graduated the academy, you might be like Neji who was a prodigy or you could be just barely able to make a sufficient clone to pass. Varies wildly.

Chunin: You have grown a decent amount, you are someone who shows sound decision making and can be trusted to lead a team. You might not have as much brutal strength or power but you have shown capable in the strengths you do have and your leadership.

Jonin: Big leagues now, you should be able to lead a team with no issues, you should have a good arsenal of jutsu and picked accordingly to your nature. You should also have a secondary or third nature that you are comfortable with and have honed into your specialty to the point you can be seen as a teacher not just for your own skills but basics of others.

Special jonin: You are one thing and one thing only. Whatever your specialty is, you might not be jonin normally but due to some aspect of your skills and abilities you have set yourself aside and shown promise that your abilities no matter how weak or strong have value in a way others cant. It might be special abilities or just raw talent but you are a cut above the rest.

Rank 255 on day 413

I accidentaly deleted my acc twice. And if i recall both were above 150 in lvl and total 500 days - 700 days

207/338

345/1022

I’m Ninja rank 283, I’ve been playing since day one.

Tbf to mizuki the chunin exams are not that difficult they consist of a writing test in which you just need to cheat without getting caught 5 times or just dont do anything and decide to stay for the final question which ends up getting you an automatic pass then its running through a forest while evading monsters which was considered easy enough to only be a distraction from the real test being not opening the scrolls which is not that hard if your not stupid
the only real issue would be the fighting exam which entierly depends on who are you facing in the exam if you are facing fodder then its easy to pass by just doing some cool tricks
he also had to fight literally a 1000 narutos with nothing but 1 big shuriken and he was also not a ninja sent to combat
a better complaint would be the oni brothers(or demon brothers in the localization) who were supposedly chunins from the village known for having the hardest and cruelest tests to a point the konoha ninjas are seen as pussies who live in peace in comparison and yet they only have a single jutsu for hiding and they both get styled on by fresh from the academy genin sasuke
even tho its stated genins go from D rank jutsus at minimum to C rank at maximum and chunins are supposed to use C rank jutsus at minimum and B rank at maximum no chunins we know actually do anything on that level
the only characters who actually show capabilities fitting of what we know about chunins are the sound 4(not including their curse marks)

As brutal as the exams seemed at the time, if you stop and go over them point by point (and exclude the parts that were the result of unique circumstances) it's not that bad:

1. The forest. It's pretty rough; but it's obviously survivable. All it's going to do is remove the lowest-performers in a particular generation.

2. The test. This is honestly mostly played for laughs? It was a difficult test but, like, Sakura was able to pass it without cheating and cheating didn't seem that hard. And ofc you can also pass it just by getting to the end and being too determined to give up.

3. The duels. People like Gaara are outliers. Most of the duels are more like the ones we see for side-characters, which are... fine. On top of this, you don't even have to win, as Shikamaru showed. IMHO this is mostly testing maturity. Shikamaru was the most mature of his generation and showed a realistic understanding of his capabilities and limitations; this is the main attribute they're looking for in a leader, not raw power. They want S1 Shikamaru to be the one giving orders to S1 Naruto or Sasuke, not the other way around - and that's entirely reasonable; Naruto and Sasuke acted like angsty children!

The fact that only Shikamaru passed out of that year is a bit eyebrow-raising, but I suspect it's just deliberately hard to pass on your first try (because, again, what they're really looking for is maturity) - every named character ultimately made it.

The issue really comes to Kishimoto not respecting the masses and unnamed people needing to be fodder to him, really. It ain't just a chunin thing but among all the ranks, the Jonin and ANBU are just the same- Everyone who ain't a named character is disposable test dummy only meant to be fucked up to hype someone else, what in turn undermines what the rank means and breaks the logic at times like this when you consider how strong they should had been instead

This problem crops up again and again in different ways.

Authors want to make stuff cool and flashy, so they come up with those insane institutions and practices. Like groups that supposedly train/teach people and it's really important to get in because it's your best chance at growth - but they just throw people into danger and expect them to git good (Instead of teaching).

Or like Naruto - another example of this is the Witcher. So, you survived the mutations and completed years of training and education, hours and hours of our time? Let's force you to take a test where maybe a quarter of you are expected to die. Wasted resources who? We're badass and have badass backstories - that's a requirement.

I would argue the Forest of death is 100% about leadership. It’s a team coordinated effort to survive and get the scrolls

So it’s definitely a part of the exams tbf

Super impacts are the best exp per stamina in the game right now so if you really want to level up then thats your best bet. Ramen is faster but uses up way more stamina than the 10 cost SS rank and gives less exp. So if you can farm deidara fast then thats your best bet

Other than ramen missions there’s nothing else you can do besides play the game

Pvp wins give you 10k exp per win

I’d say no. Weird thing about a lot of the part 1 genin (or well some are chunin by Retrieval Arc) is that most of them have jonin level techniques/moves but they tend to be so taxing (eg. Sasuke can only do a couple chidoris, red pill nearly kills Choji) or require certain conditions (eg. Rasengan requires a shadow clone, sand tsunami requires Gaara to put sand in the ground first to use) that they are clearly not high jonin level when looking at them as a whole.

(To clarify I think Sasuke, Naruto and Gaara are jonin level, but closer to low-mid)

ANBU Kakashi is stronger than Part 1 Kakashi who’s the strongest jonin in Konoha.

Itachi was well on his way to no-diffing Orochimaru who’s Kage-tier.

They’re the easiest to scale but I would think Nagato and Gaara fit as well.

Itachi and Kakashi in the Anbu are bare minimum elite Jonin level

Itachi is well above High/Elite Jonin level. Shortly after leaving the Ambu is when he had that fight with Orochimaru that made him leave the Akatsuki

Ambu Kakashi is even stronger than Part 1 Kakashi who is Elite Jonin Teir

This version of Nagato needed help from Konan and Yahiko just to defeat a Shadow clone of Base Jiraya. So I’d say that he’s probably not High Jonin level yet

Kimmimaro fight Gaara is definitely High Jonin level. Because he’s able to hold his own against Kimmimaro who should be High Jonin level

Final Valley Naruto is not High Jonin Teir. Kakashi while fatigued from using Kamui was still fast enough to blitz an Older 2 Tails Naruto. So if a High Jonin Teir character can blitz a Older 2 tails Naruto then a younger 1 tails Naruto isnt High Jonin Teir

Final Valley Sasuke is relative to Final Valley Naruto. So by extension he is also not High Jonin Teir

Itachi ez Kakashi

Honestly I just always thought Kishimoto kinda messed up with the ages of Kakashi's contemporaries or simply forgot some details. When we see the academy orientation, Hayate is there with Kakashi and the others. Kakashi would have been around 5 or 6, so Hayate, being a few years younger, would have still been a toddler, lol. I like your post, it's fun to think about.

Pero si, está interesante tu investigación, como lograste entender Japonés?!

Saving this because I love characters that only show up for a frame or two

Cracking post 😂😁

Holy shit this is the content I like to see

While i love the idea, my take would be maybe push the discovery to after they bring back tsunade? That way it plays into sasuke’s insecurities and could have a fun twist on if sasuke chooses to defect for orochimaru or stay for the naruto exp boost even through his feelings of inadequacy

Sasuke and Sakura would be shocked hearing Naruto didn't have access to the system and start wondering how weak they really are if Naruto was able to reach his capabilities without the cheat of a system they were using.

Kinda reminds me of "everyone else is a returnee," but he doesn't get years of frozen time to train in as many weapons as possible (or whatever was going on during that time, I haven't read it in a while)

It would have been better if Naruto was kept without system, that way his archivements would have real merit to them.

So Naruto is cracked, then?

He doesn't have a system but somehow still ends up as one of the strongest dudes in his generation? That's impressive.

I think Naruto NOT getting access to the system is better than him getting it late. Makes him more impressive.

This list is already screwed im ngl

1.8 gates guy shouldn’t be on a tier list, he can’t beat anyone at all

2.how tf is kid naruto beating adult sasuke, he was not holding back that much 😭

3,Kakashi should nto be that high

4.Minato should not be that high

Edo Itachi and Edo Nagato are the only correct answers.

Nagato

Isn’t it minato namikaze?

Come on guys Tobirama is a powerhouse.
