Too bad the creator thinks its funny that until now we only seen Naruto use it when he's all out of options and cannot do anything else than call it up (fight against Neji) or when he's in distress (summoning Gamabunta when he's falling down that ..."thing" [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img], or in the fight against gaara when he's in a _tight situation_ like desert coffin [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img])Originally posted by: Y The Alien
Not really. Naruto has an ENORMOUS damage soak and also, thanks to the training with Jiraiya, can call upon the Kyuubi pretty much whenever he wants to kick someone's ass.
About the "i say he's too strong for me so i can't beat him" thing in naruto, why do most people go comparing ninja's on that?
There's a difference between saying u can do something and actually doing it with success.
The whole ninja comparison based on the things characters say in Naruto is just rubbish, u cannot do such a thing.
Naruto can say (out loud [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]) that he can beat Kakashi (by instance) but he can't.
U need actual fighting scenes to compare the strenghts of the characters, and even then u can be off, cause they all specialized in different jutsu's and moves, so an overall weakers ninja could defeat a stronger one if he does moves the stronger one cannot counter or if he's smarter
The whole Naruto series is just too much full of suprises, and with some characters getting more and more stronger, or some revealing more special moves its almost impossible to compare em
