ok ok, everyone goes on about the 4th being the strongest hokage, but in the series it said that the 3rd was the strongest in his prime.
which i'm inclined to believe seeing as he took on both 1st and 2nd hokage, as well as Orochimaru at the same time - and people still rave over Itachi even when they've seen how strong the 3rd is?
Itachi couldnt take on the 1st and 2nd, even if he could they'd regenate seeing as the only way to kill them is to seal their souls.
now i'm abit baffled why everyone assumes the 3rd is just an ordinary nin when so far we've seen hes the strongest in the entire series, Itachi doesnt even compare

why dont we have any 3rd hokage fans?
