im gonna go back to jojos bizzarr adventures now. where battles can turn around in an instant with out involving some lame power-up.

ps: this is not to compare naruto with dbz. to be more like this battle would have began with naruto going super kyuubi and sasuke going level 2. someone would have been at a disadvantage from the very beginning. then would get really pissed off and tap into a new power. afterwards instead of ending the fight then and there the person would get into their whole "saiyan pride" thing and would perfer to humiliate them by allowing theme to tap into their ultimate strength, but still being at a disadvantage the humiliated person would then pull out their ultimate trump card: blowing up the planet.
