first of all, shino doesnt send his bugs in frontal attacks. no one ever notices the bugs till its to late. thats his style. what good is her fan if the bugs attack before she sees them?Originally posted by: Hollow
Bugs can't really put up a defence against a GIANT WOULD-BE FLY SWATTER (temari's fan).
the anime gimped it, naruto was supposed to have the kyubi eye just before he summoned gamabunta.
10/4/04 - 8/20/07
Temari wouldn't have fought Naruto, Temari was scared to death of Gaara, do you honestly think she'd step into a fight with anyone that managed to beat Gaara in a fight?
She was scared of SHUKAKU, not Gaara, per se. Hell, I still have NIGHTMARES about Tanuki...
The fights went like this:
Naruto vs. Neji -> Naruto (knockout)
Sasuke vs. Gaara -> Sasuke (as pointed out, Gaara needed time to recover)
Shino vs. Kankuro -> Shino (forfeit)
Temari vs. Shikamaru -> Temari (forfeit)
From there it's all conjecture.
Naruto vs. Sasuke -> Sasuke wouldn't be able to use his Chidori without killing Naruto, and he's just used his speed boost, so he's low on stamina. On the grounds of useful techniques (Kagebunshin > Konoha flame), stamina, and willpower, winner: Naruto.
Temari vs. Shino -> Shino would have all the upper hand of knowledge. He's gotten to see Temari in action twice, one of which was a drawn out fight. Temari has only seen him once, in which he essentially stood there. While Temari may be good at thinking on her feet, Shino seems to plan the entire battle out before the first punch is thrown. Winner: Shino.
Shino vs. Naruto -> Honestly, I think this would be one of the greatest fights in the series. On the one hand, Naruto's biggest advantage going into most fights is that his opponent invariably underestimates him. Shino, however, goes all out against anyone. The big challenge would be to see whether Shino has enough bugs to eat all of Naruto and Kyubi-Naruto's chakra. That, and as pointed out, Naruto refuses to stay down. And, he's the main character. Winner: Naruto.
Regardless, though, he'd still be a genin. His willingness to take it to the last breath doesn't exhibit good leadership qualities, since they'd have to worry if he'd sacrifice a team with the same mindset. =P
good theory.. but naruto will prob be a chuunin if others do.. cause if he doesn't.. we would have to see another long episodes of chuunin testOriginally posted by: Shippou-sama

Hmm. Well, after some consideration, I think Sasuke would more than likely use his Sharingan against Naruto. As stated, he wouldn't be able to tell real from false, but he tends to use it more for awareness and reaction speed than anything. As I said, I doubt that Sasuke would be willing to use the Chidori against Naruto in the Chuunin exam. For one, if Naruto dies, then Sasuke is automatically disqualified. For another, Sasuke may not like him, but he certainly doesn't want Naruto dead.I think Sasuke would put up an impressive fight, but it would be a matter of Stamina and willpower, two areas that Naruto excells at.
This is assuming that Naruto doesn't have to draw on Kyubi. If he did, the fight is over instantly with no disputes. =P
Oh yeah, of those who made it to the finals, I think Shino and Shikamaru would be strong candidates for Chuunin. Sasuke is a possibility, but unlikely.
Question: why would Sasuke be disqualified for killing Naruto? Rules state that there are no rules, so killing counts.Originally posted by: Shippou-sama

shippou-sama, i think you bring too much intelligence to this forum. your in depth, well researched answers just pwn.
except for the fact that if shippou's speaking in a hypothetical sense in reference to the main matches taking place with no war to interrupt it, then he is forgetting that kankuro would never have forfeited his match. Forfeiting the match was directly due to the plans for their surprise attack, and therefore to view the unnoficial matchup between kankuro and shino in the woods as the actual "no holds barred" battle between the two, then the result would beOriginally posted by: KaneInferno

shino vs kankuro -> neither (double KO)
of course, the loss of shino in this match complicates all of shippou's conjectures [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
thats what i wouldve thought too....but then when sakura lost in the prelims....well it sorta complicated mattersOriginally posted by: miaka

.... OK ... WOW. Thats interesting. Though I thought Sasuke it would be probably cool to watch Sasuke kill Naruto with chidori (not being sick or evil, just saying it would be soooooooooo cool to watch him barrying that in someone.) Other then that ... damn thats insightfull. Btw, which episode is the Garaa and Sasuke fight? besides the one running around outside in the woods. I mean the one during the exam, I never saw it I think, either that or I totally forgot about it(doubtfull... most likely accidently skipped the episode -> runs to the shadows and hides)
actually it is being sick and evil wanting to see sasuke killing naruto with the chidori

Sasuke wouldn't be able to hit Naruto with chidori because Naruto is too good with bunshin and replacement to get hit by a genin. Naruto would find a way to beat Sharingan, and by the time he goes on the offense, Sasuke will be all worn out from using Sharingan to detect the clones.
At the time of the tourney Sasuke might have stood a chance against Naruto, but where we are right now, Sasuke has no chance at all. Naruto's chakra control is far superior and his stamina alone owns Sasuke.

Naruto would get hit plenty. From what I've seen, the real Naruto is almost always the first one to jump in to fight anyway. Also, Naruto very rarely uses the replacement technique. I can only recall him using it once, and he wasn't even fighting real ninjas.
Let's not get into the whole "chidori is useless because Naruto can just dodge it" issue. Can you recall any time in the anime where Naruto actually dodged anything? He always takes the hits, even the ones that should have killed him. He's too slow and clumsy to dodge.
As for using sharingan to detect the clones, Sasuke knows better than that. As was stated with the Neji fight, kage bunshin equally distributes chakra among clones, so even the byakugan cannot tell which is the original. If byakugan can't do it, then sharingan sure as hell can't.
I would be pretty surprised if Sasuke used his sharingan at all against Naruto. He didn't need it until Gaara went into his shell, so he likely wouldn't need it against Naruto.

Consider the second exam, where the hidden rain ninjas used clones, and the sharingan could see they were fake bodies. also consider the itachi and kisame vs kurenai, asuma and kakashi fight. kakashis sharingan could tell which of the two itachis were fake (and im quite sure it was a kagebunshin).Originally posted by: Shippou-sama

hmm even they never said anything yet.... . even byakugan couldn't tell which was real him.. and it is supposed to be advanced version of sharingon... so i think sasuke won't be able to tell which one is naruto
kage bunshin is different than regualr bushin btw
Sasuke: Flying fists of TAZER!!
Naruto: WTF?
Sasuke: I'm low on chakra, work with me here.
Naruto: o_o
it woul be cool if after an arc finishes they jump a year or so and then just be in the final tournament
well one thing is to have a clone that is a fake and another thing is to do what Naruto does... if not mistaken he multiplies and divides his chakra among all the bodies... so in a sense they are all real... I could be wrong though
i think we probably will findout who becomes a chuunin the process has been slowed down though cos of filler episodes.
