      note that they originally didn't allow Naruto to join the war because 1. he's a Genin and 2. he's a Jinchuriki. (well, mostly because he's a Jinchuriki) Naruto basically had to brute force the Raikage so he could join the war. Sasuke on the other hand is a terrorist and the village rules don't apply to him.

    Let's also add in Itachi and Illumi. Both are older brothers, incredibly powerful, who constantly beat up their younger brother in order to make them strong enough to protect themselves. Itachi constantly beat Sasuke to make him stronger to protect the leaf and himself. Illumi put a pin in Killua's brain to make sure he never fought someone stronger than him to keep him safe. When Itachi dies, Sasuke gets his eyes and becomes much more powerful. Illumi scares Killua using a pin as a sort of mind control the same way Itachi terrifies Sasuke with genjutsu showing Itachi killing the clan.. When Killua pulls Illumi's pin, he is no longer held back and can now fight stronger people to further improve himself. Both end up being extremely stronger than they would have been and they have their brothers to thank for that.

    I think Naruto is the pefect example of being inspired by something else but still is uniqe.
    I always loved HxH and watched last year Naruto for the first time. I immediately recognised the similarities and I loved it.
    Booth Anime/Manga are great and in art it´s normal to be inspired by something else. Just make youre own thing and don´t just steel without credit.
    And Kishimoto never denied being isnpired by HxH, he said himself he is a big Fan of it.

    Surprised you didn't mention the similarities between Kurapika's Emperor Time and Sasuke's Sharingan/Mangekyo Sharingan. Red eye upgrade that lets the character better interpret, understand, or otherwise utilize techniques and abilities that they don't normally have access to. This even includes a downside that imparts physiological degradation with prolonged usage.

    7:01 "In the Chunin Exams, only one person passes" i mean, while there is only 1 winner, I think that multiple people could become Chunin in the exam, just it was merit based.

      @@NCHammer23 yo hammer I have a theory. That theory is that Sakura is a senju. Sakura has multiple connections and I think that she is a far descendent of the senju. She has pink hair the combination of white and red senju and uzumaki. Maybe the reason she has the healing ability and Jutsu as the senju is because she is one. She could be a descendent just like sokumo hatake the senju replaced their name for the wife’s name. The haruno are senju. Also the reason for her one hundred healings seal is because she is one because only senju and uzumaki have had it. Also only senju have been able to summon katsuyu. The team seven mirroring thing does not have to do with that either because rin can’t summon her. Then the other two summons are related to the natural genius and the underdog. Minato is actually the underdog because he was able to take on supposedly stronger ninja. Sunade chose Sakura because she was a descendent of the senju. Katsuyu is like the monkey kings which only the sarutobi can summon. Also she was able to activate and use her seal multiple times for longer the sunade.

    Yoshihiro Togashi and masashi kishimoto are friends in real life. They shared ideas to each other. Its just that when kishimoto wrote naruto, he wrote it with more style. For example the red eyes of uchiha sharingan comes with abilities and secrets whereas toshiro's kurapika clan red eyes is just beauty and thats it.
    Edit: credit to ham sarris for reminding me. Scarlet red eyes enables the user to use all nen types not just beauty. 1 second of its usage comes with a cost shortening his lifespan by 1 hour.

    But Shisui would have been no different than Madara. Not to mention using kotoamatsukami is not a permanent fix. And the guarantee that it would work on Fugaku was never verified beforehand, so he was just going to waste his dojutsu one the one person who is possibly immune to it.

      It doesn’t matter how strong their dojustu is. First of all,Kotoamatsukami doesn’t need eye contact to work.

      My guess is your implication is EMS makes you immune, but this isn’t the case.
      However you have a point that there was no way of knowing if changing one persons mind would be enough, and it’s implied that it may not have been.
      However there was an easier solution, and nobody ever talks about it. Without itachi they weren’t sure if their coup would work, so if itachi, and shisui both declared they would actively work against the coup it would have been stopped in its tracks, because without their 2 best fighters it would be an uphill battle, but if these 2 were added to the other side it would be impossible. In fact without shisui they couldn’t even attempt to kidnap the hokage. It would have made itachi, and shisui outcasts to their clan, but this would have been a much easier solution, and given the hokage the time and leverage he needed to force them to negotiate their differences.

    Okay so I'm just forming this theory in my head man but feel free to talk about it I don't think Tsunade is using a transformation Jutsu anytime you see a transformation Jutsu in Naruto there's always a giant puff cloud now I'm willing to agree that she's using the seal on her head but she's using it to replace her DNA telling me is to regenerate fast enough to keep her youthful appearance because in humans that's why we get older that's why we get wrinkles we lose the telomeres at the ends of our DNA strands which gives us our gray hair our wrinkles and our fragile bones what if she's just using mitotic regeneration to rapidly repair her telomeres that's just a thought cuz anytime you see Tsunade revert to her actual age her skin turns slightly Gray and she wrinkles up like she's rapidly aging

    • @baibac6065
      @baibac6065 2 роки тому

      Tsunade is using regular transformation, but using little bit of the chakra stored in the seal to passively maintain it. That's why when she uses almost all her chakra including the stored one, she goes back to how she really looks (which is older than her age due to the cell regeneration side-effect of aging her faster).

  • @zararkhan3499

    Kishimoto wasn’t actually gonna do an exam/tournament arc, he was just gonna focus on fleshing out a side cast, but his editorial staff said that it be best he do an exam arc (which in my opinion was better than the hunter exams). Also, in the Chunin exams, it’s not just one person who passes, it’s based on how suited they are to be ninjas/leaders, hence why Shikamaru became a chunin, eventhough he forfeited the match and lost, he still became a chunin.
    Regarding Kurapika and Sasuke, Kishimoto had already produced a one shot called Karakuri in 1995, where there were red eyes that had power in it, so Kishimoto already had this idea in mind. The revenge story of Sasuke (and maybe Kurapika) is based on a person in Japanese folklore called Sasuke Sarutobi, who appears in a tales that Kishimoto took a lot of inspiration from, the tale of Jiraiya the Gallant. Sasuke Sarutobi is even mentioned by sasukes mom as being the reason for his name in the kushina flashback.
    The rest are pretty similar when you boil things down hard enough.
    Btw, I’ve seen some of your videos…stop calling shit which aren’t plotholes, plotholes, and stop calling anything in Naruto plot armour, when we see how chakra is used, through Itachi passing on his chakra to sasuke, and hence he could use Amaterasu on Obito.

    Otogakura is the most underrated hidden village in my opinion. Imagine how powerful shinobi who've perfected using sound waves in combat could actually become if given a few generations to grow. High frequency sound waves can penetrate anything in theory, and be uses to create barriers. Orochimaru was only using the sound ninja as tools but if he'd have augmented even the fodder sound ninja and perfected the augments they used as well as improved the ways in which they fought and their shinobi level in general the sound village could have become very dangerous very quickly.
