Every time is has shown Tobi teleport he's had his sharingan on so who knows maybe it is connected. I always thought the final secret he unlocked was to control Kyuubi.

For some reason I still think Pein is stronger than Tobi while Tobi just has his immortality and his spacial warp jutsu that makes attacking him pretty much useless. He just created the Akatsuki and that is why he leads. I mean if he has become weaker than he was when loosing to Shodaime and Pein was able to kill Jiraiya who was using a mode that made him even stronger says something to me.

Good point. I shit my pants when Jiraiya pulled out that Ultimate Rasengan. I literally said "HOLY SHIT!!!" and started laughing because it was so huge. Masashi Kishimoto knows how to make some "WTF!!!" moments.

Yea I was like ****ing hell and started laughing, that was a great fight I can't wait to see it in the anime.

Yea that's one of the fights I'll definately have to watch in the anime even though I haven't seen an episode of Shippuden that fight deserves to be watched. I've always liked Jiraiya. To bad his only real fight scene is his death. Against Oro he was drugged so he didn't get to show much skill, and all the other fights he's been in usually ended before they began like against Kisame and Itachi.

it was a LONG fight. but it had the classic naruto elements. although i am getting a little sick of kishi pulling dues ex machina to make sense of the story at times. i mean, naruto is supposed to be one manga which DOESNT do that{its still better int he department than other shounen titles right now make no mistake} but the introduction of jiraya's past/prophecy/nagat yahiko as akatsuki leader/rinnegan/madara being behind everything when he is an unknown character/uro's real motivations. sigh, again, it was soooo much better when it was just uro and itachi as the main villians. the akatsuki screwed it up too much. itachi shudv just been the head of the akatsuki and the kyuubi shud have been the ultimate evil.

To each his own. I love how complicated its getting. The more I guess on a story the better. From watching so many movies and reading a lot of books/manga, I can pretty much guess a story's plot. They get pretty boring after a while when you see the same things over and over again. With Naruto, there are plenty of "WTF!!!" moments and twists and turns that always keep me guessing. I think that is one of the reasons Naruto is so popular.

The only reason Naruto stood out to me was because everyone was fleshed out to an extent. You knew everyone's backstory and everyone's motivations for doing things the way they do; not just the main characters and villains but even the side characters like the rookie nine and such.

Too bad he's not really doing that now... 😬 As of late it's been all about Sawsgay and Akatsutski... I Was like "yayyyy Shino!" " And then it ended in three panels and I was like "aw... Shino."

I do gotta agree with dadudemon the reason Naruto keeps me coming back for more is it's not as predictable all the time as everything else usually is I watch or read.

Ban from Get Backers has the Evil Eye or Jagan or whatever you want to call it.

Yukimura Sanada from Samurai Deeper Kyo has Eye of the Wagtail.

You forgot that in Basilisk, there is the n"injutsu" annulment technique employed passively by Oboro. "Mystic Eyes" was the technique.

ummm. do shinigami eyes count?

Gease in Code Gease.

Okay...this doesn't make sense to me.

Naruto Shipuuden 55 is out now.

In the manga, Kakashi says Naruto has twice the Chakra as he does. See first panel in this image:

In the anime, Kakashi tells Naruto that he has FOUR times as much chakra. Read the text at 4:11:

YouTube video

What I REALLY don't get....IF the Chakra is evenly split up amongst the clones and the user, then Naruto would have to have 1000 times the Chakra as Kakashi because he can produce 1000 and Kakashi can produce only 1. I'm going to go out on a limb here and say the Kakashi probably could produce 5 IF he really put some effort into it. So I would say that Naruto has 200 times as much Chakra as Kakashi.

Also, why is there a difference from the manga and the anime? True that the Chakra difference in the manga is obviously flawed...but the anime still isn't even close. At least the anime went in the right direction with their numbers, though.

Well if you really want to get in to it chakra amount should not matter as it says it splits your chakra up evenly between the clone, technicaly every one should only be able to do one shadow clone going by Kakashi's definition so It doesn't make much sense.

naruto has like infinite chakra(kyuubi enhanced), but i think he gauges his chakra at four times without kyuubi's chakra. naruto is one of the most potentially powerful ninja in series, as kakashi stated in the manga
"only you can surpass the fourth".

and is it just me or is shino getting shafted by the writters because he is the best actuall ninja in the series and would beat most of the other characters? i mean, he is like garra but methodical and can accually use taijutsu also.

Shino's technique is not as powerful or diverse as Garras in my opinion.

@dadudemon - It's Kyuubi that gives him the ability to spam shadow clones. Wasn't Kakashi only talking about Naruto's own chakra being twice his own? Naruto usually has his chakra always meshed with Kyuubi.

I think Shino's attacks are more practical than Gaara's. Everything done is mostly relied on by chakra and since the insects feed on chakra they take away the ability for people to do anything. Gaara's attack is more powerful sure and probably more versatile but powers isn't always everything.

why is Kakashi called the copy ninja??

wouldn't every member of the Uchiha clan be a copy ninja??

or did he only get that name after the clan was wiped out??

Because it's just a nickname. And it never says when he got it but I'm sure the nickname didn't come to long after Obito gave up his eye to Kakashi. He's had to have the name for a while and the Uchiha never actually use techniques they copy. What's Sasuke use, Chidori mostly, and Itachi uses Tsukiyomi mostly. Maybe he always use to do like he did against Zabuza with the whole copying him as he did it and that's why he got the name.
