Sasuke Vs. Kimimaro

[Aeon]

I meant sasuke's prespective on it after seeing the huge hole in the back.
What about gambunta? I don't follow that sentance at all...

You can't exactly call Sasuke being pissed at the hole Naruto made being shown up. The only way one of them could show up the other in that situation would be if they both used Chidori to see who could make the biggest hole in the front or if they both used Rasengan so we could see who would make the bigger hole in the back. Part about Gamabunta was to you saying he would'nt have any problem against Gaara's defense. What I meant to write was Gamabunta didn't even wanna bother fighting Shakaku(sp) when he was summoned so what makes you think that he would fight regular Gaara?

Ya but lee's leg got caught right? That was after the first gate opened and everything so he did hit him when he was moving (what I assume to be) faster than sasuke can go.

That was with the help of the cursed seal, with out it he wasn't able to touch him. Dunno if you seen the latest ep but Gaara just said before Lee was faster and his moves had more edge. That to me means he's moving at a slower speed then Sasuke since Gai said that's Lee's speed during the final exam not that's close to/near/almost Lee's speed.

I meant in the arena when the chidori pirced the sand ball(with spikes) and only cut gaara's cheek.

It wasn't his cheek but his shoulder, here's the pic. That proves that Chidori was not only strong enough to go through Gaara's real ultimate defense but also his armor of sand at the same time.

Hmmm.....

Sasuke doesn't have much to go with, imo- Pro-Sasuke people keep going on about "Sharingan" this and "Sharingan" that, when Sharingan (at Sasuke's current stage) is only a move that analyzes the opponent. That, and it's reportedly more or less useless on Taijitsu, as shown in the episode where Lee and Sasuke first spar for a moment- If the eyes can't keep up with the motion at all, they're useless.

Kimi can handle linear attacks really well, which he points out when he's able to block Lee's attacks, pre-sake. Chidori = linear motion. Kimi > linear motion. tf, Kimi > Chidori.

*edit*

Really, what would happen, is in the time for Sasuke and Kimi to go through flashbacks and speechs, Rock Lee would have had time to fully recover and train for a month, come back to the field, surpass himself and open the 6th gate, and plaster Kimi & Sasuke in one powerful combo. And then go after Gaara for good measure. XD

after all these episodes......i still feel like i dont know sasuke. We see his fighting, we see his jutsus....but we're always caught off-guard about what he's capable of. I can never accurately gauge how he'll perform against another person, because he either succeeds in pulling off some crazy new stunt, or tries a move we're familiar with, fails, and is beaten instantly.

Sorry, my mistake, it ws indeed his shoulder. However the assassination technique did not kill it's target, this would say to me that it failed. Even more so when all it did was get gaara mad and have him go demon and what not.

I know lee was injured and not moving as fast as normal HOWEVER he also opened the first gate, we don't know how much of an boost this gives him.

I may not remember completly all of gambunta's fight but I thought it was because gambunta was a little scared of him?

got to go with Kimimaro on dis one. everyone is saying heck if Lee could touch him it would be that more simple for Sasuke. Actually you have to remember that Lee was drunk and Kimimaro didn't take things seriously until he got pissed off and Lee never landed a punch kick even with his renge lotus. Knowing how far Kimi could go I would say he wins. Sasuke probably has a chance but he doesn't even use his chidori correctly of course da onlee wai ull kno dat is if u read the manga. den we go to his sharingan he could possibly project the path and this and that but dose dances kimi does seem pretti fast. even Sasuke's sharingan can't keep up with dat speed at dis point. Sasuke get owned hands down.

Wow, I can't make out half the stuff you "wrote" potential. What's the point of spelling a word completely different with only 1 or 2 less letters? On top of the negligible gains some of the words are difficult to understand in this poor phonetic style of writing.

[potentialflip]

Oh I just wanted to get my point out as fast as possible. You do not have to read the whole thing and make sense of it if you do not want to. I am pretty sure you were able to make out what my position is on this topic. If you cannot. I will gladly repeat myself and write Kimimaro wins against Sasuke in a fight. There I am sure you are able to understand that now.

Next time I will write it like this:

Heh for some reason I've never actually thought of pairing up these 2 in a match for some odd reason...But all in all with what everyone's saying, I think as of the CURRENT moment, without giving anything away or anything, I think Kimi would come out on top for tons of reasons plus all the ones people have listed, because sasuke isn't developed enough yet, he has way more room to grow. BUT, extrapolating to a later time, let's say when sasuke is developed, like Itachi is (who, as strong as he is, is still like what...16?17?), then Sasuke might be the one who come out on top. A very perspective-driven argument hah (on a side note, since I'm Pro-Itachi, I'd probably go with sasuke in a later scenario hah =D).

i voted sasuke only because i like him slightly better but i seriously have no clue who wud win if these two did clash. We nevr saw wat kimi cud do in stage 2 but we nevr saw wat sasuke cud do in stage 2. wat assertn said about sasuke always surprising us, i'm not really sure he did... up to now i remember the only thing that really surprised me was pretty much in beginning during the genin exam when sasuke cud alrdy use fire attacks. but his sharringan was expected and so was chidori because he went with kakashi (mayb this wuz jus me) i forget how many dances kimi said he had butif u think about it he'd probably use them in order from weakest -- strongest so his final dance would probably be the final move to go against sasuke's chidori again but with sasuke in stage 2? i'm not sure if sasuke got any other abilities through the whole procedure of him becoming stage 2 and all but i'm pretty sure he wudnt know of it.
