Danzo really went through life wondering why Tobirama didn't pick him as his successor when Tobirama's biggest legacy on Konoha was the academy and Chunin exams to make sure children didn't have to face the horrors of the shinobi world and Danzo saw that and made the root where he straight up physically and psychologically abused children to make good ninja
@Truffle more like Hiruzen is just a better person and a stronger ninja than Danzo will ever be. I mean Hiruzen is considered the God of shinobi in the 2nd ninja war.
To be fair... Hiruzen doesnt really give a shit about kids either... As long as your talented he'll put you on the battlefield or if your unlucky you'll be placed on someones who's talented's team and die doing missions with them... Kinda like Obito and Rin... Yeah...
Sasuke is actually living out a version of his plan at the end of Shippuden. He mentions doing things from the shadows like Itachi did. While it’s not exactly the same he did fulfill part of his ideology
ACtually, that's why he made shadows clones. "Shoo, man. I need someone really cool to be my shadow. Someone close to my awesomeness. No one is! Except... me. I'd need another me. That's impossible." (Looks into a mirror) "MF, you know what..."
True. Everyone was too cowardous to make those choices and Tobirama didn't give af. He made his choices and stood by them in the open like a man. If he needed a body studied he did it himself, if he needed someone to be watched than he said and did so himself. I think that's why he was such an effective leader, he was perfectly balanced. The edge of a "Shadow Kage" but the optimism and long term vision of an actual Kage. He did both roles well.
The term "shadow hokage" was indirectly mentioned when the 2 leaf elders (Hiruzen/Danzo) teammates said that Danzo Is the dark (shadow) and Hiruzen is the light.
@@hunter7593 it was in the anime after the Momoshiki fight. When team seven were on the hokage heads talking. Maybe it was the translation of the sub I was watching but he said it anyways.
@@JJ-xs2vs yes sasuke makes the philosophy cannon by saying itachi was the real hokage. Basically arguing either that the shadow hokage is the “real hokage” or that itachi was simply the ultimate embodiment of a shinobi, even more than a hokage. & boruto Carries on the idea that he will be the ninja that seeks no glory and protects the village. The fan base did make the term less exclusive by giving jiraiya the title, and tobirama for hiruzen. But it’s noted every hokage needs a key advisor either way.
Your Sasuke commentary is my literal favorite. It’s like listening to a sibling apologize when their mom says they have to. They are told to say it but don’t mean it 😂
I love how the way you show your hate to Sasuke. You were all high spirit and happy and full of life and energy while talking about all the other Shadow Kage, when comes to Sasuke, I can feel the energy getting taken away hahaha
@@newt2120 yeah, man. All the kages are just an element and shadow. Fire shadow, wind shadow, etc. I find it funny that people make fun of dbz names, but at least those are a different language from the original. Naruto names have to sound kinda lame in Japan 😂
@Newt if you think that's bad, think about how dumb naruto's name is. Naruto is just short for narutomaki, which is just that white and pink thing with the spiral on it that they always have in the Ramen. Uzumaki just means spiral or whirlpool. Like, that's it. That's like naming him Fishcake Spiral in English
He hates Sasuke😅 but can't say he sorry because he's backs Naruto guarding Konoha Village from the Shadows and his brother Naruto gave him Shadow Hokiage title
@@alluuskomaton8333 I'll translate: In Boruto, the kids play a ninja card game which features ninjas like Naruto, Minato, Orochimaru, Shino, Kiba, Sasuke etc. Pretty much every notable ninja has a card made of them. Just like every collectable card game, cards come with a rarity attached. Sasuke's card is an extremely rare (SSR, aka super secret rare) card that Boruto desires the the most, because Sasuke is Boruto's teacher and Naruto's rival. Sasuke's card is called, "The Supporting Shadow".
you can SEE the pain when he admits that sauske is good. It must suck hating someone who can pretty much become main character for a good number of episodes whenever he wants, and has the ability to do so EVEN AFTER HIS BEST FRIEND LOSES THAT ABILITY (except baryon mode but theres a cost to that)

no rinnegan , not sarada's father , not boruto's sensei , not enough modern knowledge , not strong enough to beat even toneri. so.... yeah still sasuke
yeah did he beat up the mummy and the guy with the big nose befor he was exiled? i though he threatened the other nations to deter them from fighting the leaf.
My thoughts exactly I thought madara was hashirama shadow hokage around the time he went to the hidden stone and beat Mu & onoki’s but in their prime I might add 😂
You've been going crazy with the uploads lately. (a good thing) Every video is a good thought provoking idea and helps breathe some fresh air into the Naruto community. Very appreciated bros
This guy really listen to his community, i was there during the live and saw him picking up this idea from a subscribers. He really is my fav youtuber, Keep going!🙌🏾
When Jaraiya was number 3, I was confused as to who could be 1/2. Then I remembered Tobirama was a Shadow Hokage before becoming a full Hokage. I always just saw him as the Second Hokage, never the First Shadow Hokage.
@@saajiddaya2152 That is curious. Aside from brooding and plotting, did Madara do anything to benefit the Leaf Village? Aside from uniting the clans of course.

EDIT: i lost the entire integrity of my shit when you made the riley reid christmas joke lmfao
That Riley Reid line again😂 Personally i would put Tobirama at number 1. If it wasnt for him, the Leaf Village wouldnt be what we know it as now, maybe not even exist which would just change the the whole naruto series as a whole. Theres a video idea. “What if Tobirama Died Before Konaha’s Founding?” or something like that
i love the fact that u accept him being no. 1 even though u don't like are appreciated him, giving by ur expression and tone and that the main reason why i still have respect on the amazing stuff u do on anime standards.
Well, that and he ended up releasing all of them from the Infinite Tsukuyomi along with Naruto 😅 hard for them to execute him if they each individually owe him their lives.
True if you take it too literally Hokage Kazekage Raikage He says Shadow Hokage throughout the video, yes the translation is Shadow Shadow THAT'S NOT WHAT'S BEING SAID It's the Other Hokage working in the shadows, therefore being the Shadow of the Shadow.
It’s crazy to think how much of the show would change if fugaku became the 4th hokage especially considering he was the best candidate he had immense power and intelligence and unlike minato was older and had more wisdom and experience.
Also he would have always put the Uchiha first. So no he wasn't the best choice. Minato was the best choice. The biggest problem is danzo. Had he been taken out the Uchiha would have never felt slighted
@@johnsonjohnny675 there’s nothing proving he would always put the uchiha first in fact it’s the opposite fugaku was objective and cared for everyone if you read the itachi novels you would know more about him he didn’t even want the uchiha coup it was the clan that forced him into doing it he would’ve been the best candidate for hokage at that time he wasn’t biased towards his own clan he looked at everyone the same. He was also 31 at the time they were electing while minato was only 22 fugaku was almost a decade older, wiser, and more experienced.
@@johnsonjohnny675 after over a decade of the clan wanting him to preform a coup that he continuously prevented he finally gave in because they would’ve done it without him and even then he tried to preform a bloodless coup and just restrain the higher ups and force himself to become hokage to stop the oppression and discrimination of their clan by the higher ups. Never was a bad dude and didn’t want to do it but had to. If he would’ve became hokage this would’ve been years before the coup even got brought up and so it never would’ve happened.
@@hollowpointz2590 i get ya with the whole sympathetic revelations about fugaku but tbh they dont say much beyond he was against the coup he could have just been too calculating to not reslise no matter the outcome of the battle between then n hokage they still would be at the mercy of the village and other clans which is what i interpret from the tale but if the leaf gave him the title of hokage after minato orochimaru would be toast danzo retired leaf having elite anbu team of kakashi, yamato, shisui, itachi naruto n sasuke being raised n trained together maybe even tsunade forced/bribed back to the village earlier this is best outcome imo
In a indirect way they did say shadow kage. In Boruto Bourto said that Sandra becomes Kage and he will be her right hand man and protect Konoha in the Shadows like Sasuke.
A true ninja swallow his pride in order to speak truth, even at the expense of his own bias. Nobody really says that, but still; I respect your fact based opinions, even when it's something or someone you don't like. One of the reasons you're so likeable.
man when i watch nick i feel like im watching an actual INTERESTING documentary that is split into tons of epic scenes about something that happened in the past. I know naruto is fiction but god damn nick knows so much that it seems like this stuff happened irl and that its a damn documentary, its so great.
@Natsu Satsujinki what do you mean, such as did you not watch the show? He was the cause the Akatsuki joined obito. the ninetails attack caused more casualties because Danzo told the uchihas to stay away. Helped orochimaru in his experiments, such as creating wood release that led to the deaths of 60 children. Then Danzo doesn't even use wood release for the benefit of the leaf. Danzo was willing to let the leaf get destroyed during pain attack just so he can become hokage. Danzo was was the worst.
Didn't Madara operate as Hashirama's shadow hokage as well. We see some examples of that with onoki talking about past interactions with Madara and the 2nd tsuchikage
Itachi used Jiraiya, a member of the Sannin as the perfect excuse to back off of Naruto. We all know what Itachi did to arguably the most powerful Sannin when nobody else was around 🙃. This was also part 1 when the Sannin were so prestigious and held in high regard. Wasn’t the case in Shippuden as we know the powerful people don’t care if they are Sannin bcus they are just as powerful if not more than they are. It was simply a badge of honor for surviving long enough 💀
Word probably got around about what Jiraiya and Tsunade were doing since retirement. Earlier, people must have thought they'd be doing better than Orochimaru lol
I definitely saw Tobirama as Hashirama’s S.H., but could you also make the argument that Madara was just as much the H.S. as Tobirama was? (At least for a little bit before he went full “F the Leaf” mode)
Well done. This was an important video to shed light on the characters that have done so much without getting too much recognition. It's especially important for tobirama and danzo, who have done so much good for the village long term, but obviously have also done messed up things. It's important to talk about the grey areas of rule.
We actually saw a little about Tobirama's life so he actually might be #1 shadow Hokage, but Sasuke, yeah we saw everything about his life, so I vote for Tobirama
Everyone in the comments talking about the Kage Kage word play but it makes sense when you think about it. The kage stands before the village and casts their shadow over it. The shadow Kage stands in the villages Shadow, protecting it from 'behind'. As the Shadow Kage, you're The Shadow within the Shadows.
He definitely was It was stated he went to other villages under the hidden leaf, pretty much to tell them that the hidden leaf is not to be fuc*ed with. But he was only a shadow for about 6 months or so.
It makes sense when you think about how missions are ranked and given out. I'm pretty sure there some missions that needs a high possibility of success to a point failure can mean the end of a village
Honestly I feel like sasuke should be in jail because he practically started a war and tried to kidnap the 8th tail jinchuriki and he literally committed treason multiple times on purpose.
I sent it to a friend lol.. but I love the way that u show ur true disdain for sasuke by jus shuffling thru his feats like u had somewhere better to be.. lol great detail when we all kno ur attitude towards sasuke. ✊🏽✊🏽 10/10 and also the fact that u put itachi as a possible shadow hokage in the 1st 3mins was a great move to keep people engaged.
Tobirama is, based on the facts, is the best shadow hokage even though they technically facing Gods. Sasuke is that father who always forgets the milk 🤣
This was probably outtake of this video: "Well, that's it. Obviously Tobirama is obviously the best shadow hokage-" Sasuke: *Clears throat* NCHammer:... Sasuke: You're forgetting someone. NCHammer: *Glaring at Sasuke*
There sounds like a lot of pain in his voice for sasuke. I wonder what could have happened if Obito saved sasuke during the 5 kage summit but didn't appear with sasuke in his arms.
Danzo really went through life wondering why Tobirama didn't pick him as his successor when Tobirama's biggest legacy on Konoha was the academy and Chunin exams to make sure children didn't have to face the horrors of the shinobi world and Danzo saw that and made the root where he straight up physically and psychologically abused children to make good ninja
Lmao for real! Agreed.
Danzo is like “Your gonna regret not choosing me”
But that's false danzo knew why, tobirama didn't choose him. He was a coward and self pervsering ninja in his younger days.
@Truffle more like Hiruzen is just a better person and a stronger ninja than Danzo will ever be. I mean Hiruzen is considered the God of shinobi in the 2nd ninja war.

He was also 31 at the time they were electing while minato was only 22 fugaku was almost a decade older, wiser, and more experienced.
@@hollowpointz2590 except he wanted to over throw the village... When pushed it's Uchiha first.
@@johnsonjohnny675 after over a decade of the clan wanting him to preform a coup that he continuously prevented he finally gave in because they would’ve done it without him and even then he tried to preform a bloodless coup and just restrain the higher ups and force himself to become hokage to stop the oppression and discrimination of their clan by the higher ups. Never was a bad dude and didn’t want to do it but had to. If he would’ve became hokage this would’ve been years before the coup even got brought up and so it never would’ve happened.
@@hollowpointz2590 i get ya with the whole sympathetic revelations about fugaku but tbh they dont say much beyond he was against the coup he could have just been too calculating to not reslise no matter the outcome of the battle between then n hokage they still would be at the mercy of the village and other clans which is what i interpret from the tale but if the leaf gave him the title of hokage after minato orochimaru would be toast danzo retired leaf having elite anbu team of kakashi, yamato, shisui, itachi naruto n sasuke being raised n trained together maybe even tsunade forced/bribed back to the village earlier this is best outcome imo
In a indirect way they did say shadow kage. In Boruto Bourto said that Sandra becomes Kage and he will be her right hand man and protect Konoha in the Shadows like Sasuke.
U gotta get that Sasuke hate out your heart lol
Very well done and great ending, that was funny 🤣🤣🤣
The Sasuke part was way too funny LMAO
A true ninja swallow his pride in order to speak truth, even at the expense of his own bias.
Nobody really says that, but still; I respect your fact based opinions, even when it's something or someone you don't like. One of the reasons you're so likeable.
Ah yes, the best job in Naruto, Shadowshadow.
Look at the cover to Boruto #15 for the reference of Sasuke as Shadow Hokage...
Danzo was a patriot. In his own way. He loved the Leaf.
man when i watch nick i feel like im watching an actual INTERESTING documentary that is split into tons of epic scenes about something that happened in the past.
I know naruto is fiction but god damn nick knows so much that it seems like this stuff happened irl and that its a damn documentary, its so great.
Isn't Shikamaru basically the Shadow Hokage? The stuff he does in Shikamaru Shinden fits the bill
🤣🤣Nick sounds SO MAD when putting Sasuke at #1 Shadow Hokage🤣🤣
I enjoy seeing the titles change , it makes me feel like I’m apart of a early release 😅
What was it before 😭
What was the previous title? I can't recall.
Sadly I forgot lol but great video , I’m confused on how some people were giving a review on the video when it was out 3mins 😂 the video is 15m +
Ranking is on point but also your reaction to Sasuke being one is also on point
If that's the case, then Danzo was the Shadow Hokage.
He was a village elder
@@larryfoster8820 no. He was THE shadow Hokage. One of the best actually.
@Natsu Satsujinki no he was not every decision danzo did for the greater good of Konoha came to bite them in the ass later.
@@ThanosTheTitan93 such as? And it's not about what happened to Danzo. It's about the choice Danzo made for the village.
@Natsu Satsujinki what do you mean, such as did you not watch the show? He was the cause the Akatsuki joined obito. the ninetails attack caused more casualties because Danzo told the uchihas to stay away. Helped orochimaru in his experiments, such as creating wood release that led to the deaths of 60 children. Then Danzo doesn't even use wood release for the benefit of the leaf. Danzo was willing to let the leaf get destroyed during pain attack just so he can become hokage. Danzo was was the worst.
I'm not sure if this is a thing but a video on the usefulness on the other shadow kage villages would be a nice follow-up.
Didn't Madara operate as Hashirama's shadow hokage as well. We see some examples of that with onoki talking about past interactions with Madara and the 2nd tsuchikage
Love the enthusiasm talking about Sasuke XD
Itachi used Jiraiya, a member of the Sannin as the perfect excuse to back off of Naruto. We all know what Itachi did to arguably the most powerful Sannin when nobody else was around 🙃. This was also part 1 when the Sannin were so prestigious and held in high regard. Wasn’t the case in Shippuden as we know the powerful people don’t care if they are Sannin bcus they are just as powerful if not more than they are. It was simply a badge of honor for surviving long enough 💀
I mean, them 3 are crazy powerful and deserve that title. Way more than a badge, and I can fully argue and support it.
Word probably got around about what Jiraiya and Tsunade were doing since retirement. Earlier, people must have thought they'd be doing better than Orochimaru lol
My man was hurt giving Sasuke his flowers. But I tip the cap cause I know that was hard 🤣
I definitely saw Tobirama as Hashirama’s S.H., but could you also make the argument that Madara was just as much the H.S. as Tobirama was? (At least for a little bit before he went full “F the Leaf” mode)
Well done. This was an important video to shed light on the characters that have done so much without getting too much recognition. It's especially important for tobirama and danzo, who have done so much good for the village long term, but obviously have also done messed up things. It's important to talk about the grey areas of rule.
I am convinced Itachi could take on Jiraiya by himself, let alone with help of Kisame
The way you explained Sasuke is hilarious 🤣🤣
We actually saw a little about Tobirama's life so he actually might be #1 shadow Hokage, but Sasuke, yeah we saw everything about his life, so I vote for Tobirama
Everyone in the comments talking about the Kage Kage word play but it makes sense when you think about it. The kage stands before the village and casts their shadow over it. The shadow Kage stands in the villages Shadow, protecting it from 'behind'.
As the Shadow Kage, you're The Shadow within the Shadows.
And Boruto wants to be the Shadow Hokage.
Me a Sasuke fan: I agree completely
was madara technically a shadow hokage?
He definitely was
It was stated he went to other villages under the hidden leaf, pretty much to tell them that the hidden leaf is not to be fuc*ed with. But he was only a shadow for about 6 months or so.
It makes sense when you think about how missions are ranked and given out. I'm pretty sure there some missions that needs a high possibility of success to a point failure can mean the end of a village
Im really confused about the tone here.. I thought you love Sasuke with all your heart and believe hes the best written character of all time🤔
.. 😂😂😂😂
Stop fighting it Nick”You Know Nothing About Sasuke”you know you wanna do it bro
Honestly I feel like sasuke should be in jail because he practically started a war and tried to kidnap the 8th tail jinchuriki and he literally committed treason multiple times on purpose.
Naruto wouldn't let that happen
I sent it to a friend lol.. but I love the way that u show ur true disdain for sasuke by jus shuffling thru his feats like u had somewhere better to be.. lol great detail when we all kno ur attitude towards sasuke. ✊🏽✊🏽 10/10 and also the fact that u put itachi as a possible shadow hokage in the 1st 3mins was a great move to keep people engaged.
Tobirama is, based on the facts, is the best shadow hokage even though they technically facing Gods.
Sasuke is that father who always forgets the milk 🤣
I love you dude so unenthusiastic about sauske thanks for putting the pride in the pocket
So happy you got this sponsor, I been planning on buying a bunch of these
This was probably outtake of this video:
"Well, that's it. Obviously Tobirama is obviously the best shadow hokage-"
Sasuke: *Clears throat*
NCHammer:...
Sasuke: You're forgetting someone.
NCHammer: *Glaring at Sasuke*
great video and the rankings was pretty spot on imo haha
There sounds like a lot of pain in his voice for sasuke. I wonder what could have happened if Obito saved sasuke during the 5 kage summit but didn't appear with sasuke in his arms.
Tobirama 1st all day. His decision to sell the Tailed Beasts is the only reason Konoha remained relevant moving forward.
Visibly in pain when discussing Sasuke's accomplishments LMFAO
