indeed, a stunning turn around. I really hope that Obito is just merely hurt by the attack and not actually defeated otherwise Kishi would have just gone and pulled off the biggest upset in the series to date.
You must have missed the part where he was able to create a Susano'o large enough to cover Naruto's Bijuu Mode without Naruto's chakra amping him.
Or the part where he created an Amaterasu Arrow with enough chakra to match up perfectly with Naruto's Giant Rasenshuriken.
Or the part where his Susano'o's hand stopped Ten Tailed Tobi's chakra construct from getting through and killing Naruto.
The Power of Friendship will always trump World destroying power.

Also, what was the reasoning behind putting in a Naruto (Power Lending) and Naruto (Full Partnership), as opposed to just one entry?

Because the former is a significant strategic ability that he didn't have when he first made full partnership, and when he got it that's when people decided to put him at SS+.

*These characters have jutsu that require specific preparation that can't be done mid combat but increase their ability significantly, such as Edo Tensei, preparing multiple sage-mode charges, or readying unusual amounts of explosive tags.
^These characters have high-level Biju control of tailed beasts outside of their bodies.
I disagree with a few characters' placements (like non-Edo Tensei Tobirama and Hiruzen should both be bumped up a spot imo) but overall a solid tier list.
I don't think non-Edo Tobi has shown himself better- or heck, equal- to basic Minato.
And Hiruzen still hasn't *done* much! I do want to bump up his healthy version, since he's a Kage he should be at least S, but he's yet to show off his jutsu and it looks like he may never do so.
Didn't he beat both Hashirama and Tobirama at the same time though? I understand that they were not going all out, but still that's a really good feat.
I know that, I meant why not just one entry for the current Naruto at SS+?

to Bentley: I suppose, but still it could have been a bit more climatic or something given how Obito has been dominating everything prior to this chapter for the most part.
