Why I Love The Five Kage Summit Arc
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 14 окт 2024
- The Five Kage Summit Arc is not well liked by Naruto fans. A lot of people have complains about the 5 Kage Summit, but this is an amazing arc. It shows Sasuke slipping further into darkness and it presents the 5 kage for the first time together. We see great fights such as Sasuke vs Raikage, Sasuke vs Danzo, and Sasuke vs the 5 Kage.
There are a couple of disappointing such as the Kakashi vs Sasuke fight, but overall this is a great arc. Sasuke going mad and stabbing Karin, developing his Mangekyou Sharingan and Susanoo is great.

What's your favorite moment from the Five Kage Summit Arc?
Sasuke vs 5 kage
1. Sasuke almost getting killed.
2. Karin getting stabbed.
3. Raikage not listening to Naruto
Shinobi alliance
Tobi casually stalking Naruto
When Sasuke said “it’s Sasuke time” and Sasuke’d all over his haters by being the main character.
This is honestly news to me that people don’t like this arc, I love this arc
During the time of the arc and its conclusion everyone loved it and was hyped. It was only after the "fell off after Pain Arc" taking point that sprouted during the War Arc did everyone suddenly start ignoring the Kage Summit that was heavily enjoyed because it didn't fit what they had to parrot. Too many clown in this community that just repeat what's popular or "cool" to say. Can't respect these buffoons.
For real. 😅
Only Sauce fans like it because they truly believe he won and didn't got his ass beaten by 3 out of 5 kages
The emo kid died 3 times there but plot armour saved him
I don’t like the War Arc in general so that includes this arc
They don’t, that’s cap, people LOVE the 5 Kage arc, dyingknight just wanted a reason to make a video on this arc I’m sure lmaoooo
I love the summit because it kind of exposed how hypocritical everyone in the world is. Sasuke is an irredeemable criminal because he wants to kill the shitty old man responsible for his families genocide? Well everyone treats Gaara like he’s an exemplary moral figure despite him having been a literal serial killer who killed hundreds more people than Sasuke ever did and all his crimes are wiped away because he’s a Kage. The Raikage is furious that Sasuke kidnapped his brother as a means to an end but is totally fine with kidnapping peoples toddler aged children and ripping their eyes out.
Good point. I didn't think about that
Yeah. Guess things are a bigger problem when they arrive at your doorstep, eh? Sasuke's whole clan was murdered, innocent families and children included and for what? Some temporary peace? I just find it funny how almost no one wonders if maybe this whole mess was caused because of the village's hypocrisy and unwillingness to acknowledge the mistakes it made. Even Itachi admitted that he regretted his choice and wished he could've done things different. He laments that he wasn't brave enough to tell his brother the truth. And yet, Danzo just acts like it's some righteous goal while flaunting his special arm embedded with the stolen eyes of the clan he had killed.
One aspect of that is how not even Naruto wasn't safe from that thinking since, while the story itself doesn't acknowledge it, his expecting the Raikage to forgive Sasuke for seemingly kidnapping Killer B partly comes off as self-centered in forgetting how bad he wanted to kill Pain to avenge Jiraiya. For years I disliked that scene but seeing your point, it makes more sense more than ever.
That's an ad hoc rationalization of bad writing, it isn't the intended message of the arc. You literally like the arc because you inject something of yours into it.
It shows how the villages treated everyone not in power as lower.
This was peak shippuden for so many reasons. The biggest reason the arc is so impactful is due to the truth of itachi getting revealed. Obito’s speech to Naruto about sasukes ninja way still gives me goosebumps to this day. All while sasuke is literally wreaking havoc at the summit. A good hearted kid turned into a unrecognizable monster because the place he called home was responsible for the death of his family. It’s this character development that takes sasukes character from great, to legendary. Kishimoto created such a masterpiece with him.
I personally loved the arc because it felt like the naruto world was actually alive. Like it wasn’t just naruto and the leaf now. Now it’s the whole world and it all feels just so much better.
Yes! And that's was amazing! Sadly from now on, world building was on a descending.
And Boruto is making it stupidly worse.
And you just have to admit that the bodyguards of the kages dashing out to protect their masters just looks sooooooo badass
For me peak naruto shippuden is between the start of the itachi pursuit arc till the end of the 5 kage summit.
We had only great figths, world building, amazing character arcs in that period for naruto, sasuke, jiraya, itachi and pain but even for minor interesting characters like deidara, danzo, the kages, kisame, bee, taka members who shine aswell.
The start of the war was slow but it became peak again with madara's introduction up until juubidara vs naruto and sasuke but it get ruined with kaguya and black zestu.
True say, pain assault was hard aswell tho and war arc had some of the greatest moments in the show but like u said it was a bit slow and it became sloppy towards the end
I like how the Five Kage summit arc was focused more on drama than action and the arc had the characters( besides naruto) all wanting to kill sasuke instead of rescue him like other arcs,the anime version was very boring however.
I liked the anime version I found it pretty engaging ngl.
@@NotEnoughSwvyI’m saying lol
I like it because it was Sasuke best arc. He revolted against the shinobi world that exploited literally all shinobis including the Uchihas. He spat on the kages went in to fight and was leading the fight until Ohnoki stepped in which i dont blame him because Sasuke hadnt matured completely yet. Sasuke did the thing that soo many shinobis in this world want to do-escape / upend the way the world works. Sasuke in this arc is not just a rogue nin but a SYMBOL of all the grudges the Kage system has caused for 3-4 generations of shinobi.
I loved it , perfectly captured sasuke's badassery. People hated it basically cause it focuses more on sasuke than naruto
I loved this arc. Never knew people thought it was boring. But having only read it, seeing that maybe it's because of the anime, that makes sense
Anytime sasuke takes center stage in an arc, his fans just eat it up. We only got to see a truely bloodthirsty sasuke a handful of times in the whole series so seeing Sasuke just storm the summit, killing samurai easily, and facing kages with little to no fear
It’s just peak for a Sasuke fan in my opinion
And he’s just more entertaining to watch then Naruto. Remember how boring og Naruto show was when sasuke left. And even in shippuden his fights are just far more interesting and exciting
@@newlife6265Agree Naruto boring as hell, preaching the same shit and fighting the exact same way in every fight. It's the same thing on repeat with him
agreed.Sasuke's arc and character development here was packed with emotions and you can really feel and understand his pain to the point where you even started to root for him,even if he was on a vengeful war path of destruction..
then the war arc started and he was just kind of left in the background.his anger faded too quickly and even his last fight with Naruto was just unimpactful...
i feel like we got robbed of the true final delve to darkness in Sasuke's character arc
@@newlife6265it's boring because it's filler with bad writing. Nothing to do with naruto
@@theflashgordon193 true but Naruto fights just really aren’t that good in the whole Naruto series. It’s either he goes auto pilot with the nine tails or one shots Sombody with a rasengan when after getting knocked around the whole fight. We rarely see him use his cleverness and skills to win a fight. At least not how other characters do
It's also where Sasuke was at his best. I would have liked to see Jugo's and Suigetsu's reaction to him sacrificing Karin. Would they have attacked him?
I honestly loved seeing Sasuke go down a dark path like this. And hey, I wanted Danzo dead just as much as him.
Na sasuke suck for being in that situation
Nope they wouldn't
Suigetsu would probably just run away and Jugo would remain loyal to Sasuke until Sasuke eventually kills him, since Sasuke wants to sever all bonds.
Yeah, it is true... If Karin croaked, they would've just lost their "healer"... That's it. 😐🙃~need get replacement [healer] medicine 💊✨
If this arc never existed there wouldnt be any worldbuilding in Naruto world at all lol
Very true,This arc is where we get introduced to all the kages and other villages besides Konoha and Sand village.
Land of waves kaze kage rescue
Good catch about Sasuke's perception of Kakashi as someone who's abusing his clan's power by using it for the Leaf village. Especially after seeing Danzo's right arm full of stolen sharingan.
Bro Five Kage Summit is PEAK Naruto!!! Who doesn’t like this arc!?? Great video 😆😆😆!!!
Naruto’s breakdown is so painful. It’s him realizing all his friends and comrades have turned against his decision, and that entire world have wants Sasuke dead. It’s him realizing how low Sasuke’s stooped and the darkness he’s going through. It’s Naruto realizing Sasuke might actually die.
Yo I didn’t know this arc was getting so much flak. I constantly go back and revisit it. It has what I consider multiple amazing fights.
- Sasuke & Co v Raikage & Co
- Sasuke v Gaara (not a fight per se but amazing still in terms of character insight)
- Bee v Kisame
- Sasuke v Danzo
I know all these fights bar one include Sasuke but the awesome thing about them is that there’s still plenty of involvement and things to enjoy from other characters EVEN in the Danzo fight where it leans much more on sasuke.
I love it, too! It's so drama-filled, it's so tense and I love Sasuke Vs Danzo. The entrance of Sasuke's in the Summit Hall is epic, as well! 😊
The only minus I will give it is that Sasuke Vs Kakashi was too short... 😢
I speak with mixed feelings about the Five Kage Summit.
Sasuke had every right to go after the folks who ordered his big brother to wipe out his entire clan.
And I get what's going on here; he just found out that Itachi was protecting him the whole time, and Danzo (Hiruzen's right-hand man) was the guy who caused the Uchiha Clan Massacre to happen in the first place by taking Shisui's eye.
He's obviously taking this personally!
Plus, Sasuke vs Danzo was one of the best technical fights in the anime and manga.
But this was also the start of Sasuke's heel face turn when he pierced straight through Karin with a Chidori Sharp Spear just to get to Danzo. And then he called her a burden for being taken hostage.
Karin should've smacked him across the face for that. XD
Sasuke is my FAVOURITE character of all time. The only reason why I watch Naruto.
From what I understand you don't need hashirama cells for Izanagi. Danzo needed it to survive having so many Sharingan and to also be able to extend the time its active. But to use it for a few seconds didn't require the cells
one of my fav scenes is when gaara relates to sauske and crys for him
#DygoKnight
I loved ALL of the arcs. 😭 I’d be willing to wipe my memory just to experience the Naruto universe again. Personally, nothing will top the feeling of watching the Chunin exams and Konoha Crush for the first time. Those two are what officially drew me into the series.
I love Kages Arc, introduce all Village, Kages, even the Shinobis uniforms for the first time, sensor Shinobis, other elite Jonins, the tension after all the were countries with war backgrounds, we all knew they were insane powerful ninjas we wanted to learn their skills, Sasuke was a beast facing all of them, for me it was even better than the Pain Arc
The arc is not bad, it just happens very quickly after pain's defeat. I would rather have shorter stories showing each village and the other konoha's teams, and a timeskip before the summit.
Exactly. Kishimoto could have finally put some focus on people like Shino, Neji and Lee; and showcase their abilities.
11:08 The plan was to confront Danzo on the way back to Konoha as Karin said earlier. That's why Sasuke didn't attack when he saw him in the hallway. They infiltrated to identify him so Karin could track his chakra signature. Chapter 457 page 5.
At 3:00 and the next 40 seconds, you said Itachi is overhyped, talked about people hating Deidara fight with no reason being absolutely wrong and implied that Sasuke is the best character. I subscribed right after that. FAX
Thank you. This arc deserves More love
The Five Kage Summit Arc is one of my favorite arcs besides the Pain Arc....why? Because it felt like there were worldwide consequences for Sasuke's actions, and had a lot of conflicting ideologies. It felt a lot more rooted in realism and I enjoyed it a lot. It allowed the Ninja World to feel far more fleshed out and like, you know...an actual world.
Kage hypocrisy isnrealism
@@eavyeavy2864it very much is. Same reasoning as with real life world leaders. They preach peace unity and prosperity publicly, but behind closed doors oh boy do they have skeletons in the closet.
Sasuke really does get away with it all. Consequences from his crimes? from basically being killed by the kage (plot armor)? what consequences? he just lmao'ed it all off every single time.
@@KajukaiKori the war started right after idiot, and sasuke was half the reason they won the war, ofcourse he deserves to be forgiven
psychopath sasuke is my favourite version of him
Also, how the Mizukages jutsu also melts Susano, obviously not the complete one but it still brings more Kage level mystery.😮
Also, Naruto stands up for Sasuke for no reason. When his next mission is to most likely have to bury Sasuke. But those Cloud ninja wouldn't have taken that up with Danzo or Kakashi. I mean what tools he's only in the same squad. What a friend tho. He always does the right thing.
I really like how Kishimoto introduce the kage and their jutsu even if we already know of Gaara and in the manga is really good in that pacing
I blame the studio for the loss of fans after the pain arc, the fillers after the pain arc even made me stop watching for a while and read the manga, I came back during the war arc so I actually had to go back to see this arc, which I’m sure not a lot of people did
And they are the reason on why sakura was hated because of the anime especially fillers she is completely terrible in the anime but in the manga she is not bad kishimoto can write a female characters like tusnade and choryi and kushisna he give sakura her best arc and fight but because of hate because of the anime the editor probably told him to change it to hinata because of her being pupuler because of fillers sakura obissan with sasuke what killed her she was supposed to end with Naruto just look she and Naruto get more screen time than Naruto and hinata and the studio can't be trusted with anything just look at the stupid the last movie kishimoto wasn't involved and tha movie was bad
@@ayhamahmad2277 naruto and hinata were always going to be a thing lmao get real it was set up since the ep hinata was first in, if naruto and sakura were together fans would riot, sakura would cheat on him with sasuke after a week
What i like about the kage summit is that it shows that the five vliages and kages were responsible for creating the akatsuki since every member of akatsuki came from the five vliages
Not true, Hidan was from Yugakure.
No akatsuki members from the cloud but I get what you mean
I love every arc dealing with Sauske!!! It's just fun and exhilarating to see him use his Uchiha powers which was hyped since he got his mangekyo from Itachi. You wanted to see how he measure up against the strongest ninjas in the land or if he could be stronger than Itachi. Who could hate that excitement?🤔
I loved this arc it gave sasuke time to really shine because the sasuke vs itachi ended up being lacklustre once you realise that itachi was nearly dead at that point anyway. So it make sasuke seem really weak because he was giving it his all from the start of the fight.
Plus this arc was the first time I felt like the rest of the Kages actually matter and are powerful in their own right.
Sasuke only had regular sharingan vs Itachi with mangekyo and so6p tools
Honestly, when I look at Sasuke in this arc, I see someone being driven nuts by betrayal after betrayal. The first betrayal being what Konoha did to his family, clan, and brother. That betrayal would have been painful enough, but another betrayal that happens in the Five Kage Summit was when Zetsu exposed his presence, forcing him to alter his plans. The final betrayal being when Sakura came to kill him despite claiming to want to defect. It was by this point Sasuke deemed he couldn't trust anyone anymore, even if they were his former teammates. This isn't "Lol, I'm edgy and evil!" and more "Everyone has betrayed me! And so, I will stand alone!" This part would drive him to go with the procedure to implant Itachi's eyes, and escape from Tobi when he deemed the time was right. Also, Sasuke left a pretty big impact overall. Danzo would be remembered for the snake he is....or rather...was, and his attack on the Five Kage pretty much shows that the Five Kage are not untouchable, that when facing an Uchiha's wrath, there is no place to run or hide. While he only killed Danzo, he just removed everyone's sense of safety, because in a single day, one man attacked the Leaders of the Five Great Ninja Villages, and survived. Susanoo's visage would be burned into the Five Kage's psyche. Not even Tobi's declaration of war could overshadow that.
Best summary ever. Sasuke is my favorite naruto character next to Naruto and Kakashi and I think his fall into darkness and his radical view of what it should mean to be hokage was very well done
The five kage ark is my favorite point in time in Naruto, my favorite arch is the war arch but I love all the moving parts and when Naruto passes out from a panic attack made me cry. Sasukes fight with danzo is amazing, and when Naruto tells sasuke that they will both die is so idk Ig beutifull I just love the arch so much
The only thing I didn’t like about this arc was Naruto’s behavior. All the simping he did for Sasuke was sickening.
Fr
watch a different show then, naruto's unwavering loyalty to sasuke is beautiful, none of us would ever do what naruto did for sasuke
man i discovered you recently and I love your content❤keep doing what you're doing because you're doing it amazingly
Ikr? ^^
Thank you! Will do!
Have you seen his Naruto rewrite series? It's pretty good
I really like this arc because it was the first I read in the manga. Back in the day I didn't know this manga/anime delay relation and I always prefered to watch the anime. When I discovered that the manga is always more advanced in story, I started reading the manga and it was magical to know what would happen after Pain arc.
Mei and Onoki had such a cool introduction to their jutsu in this arc
Usually they say it's not bad after the Pain arc, but I love the Kages arc.
For me pre pain arc i hate seeing Naruto on screen
When Sasuke is on screen its always hyped moment
It's an Ok Arc. The Kages are interesting. Sasuke raiding the Summit is ok overall, with ups and downs. And the fight agaisnt Danzou is good. However, everything about Sakura on this arc sucks bad. Really bad. It was the worst moment of her character, by far (and that is quite something). Not only she went to lie and try to manipulate EVERY-ONE (Gary Oldman's voice) arround her, she also reached quite a level of stupidity far beyond the aceptable. Plus, demonstrated a annoying lack of resolve when she at last had her chance to kill Sasuke. Like, you know, even a person is unfit to kill another, there are alternatives besides freezing. She could try to deliver a non fatal punch or cut. She could have fought back when Sasuke grabbed her and went for her throat. Everything, absolutely everything about her in this arc works only in making her a worse character, consolidating her as perhaps the worse character in the series. It's also the arc that consolidated Sasuke as a completely looney irrational character, after making clear his goal to amaterasu every baby in Konoha for sins commited by less than 1% of the village population (all that while it's ok to let "Madara" live).
He planned to kill Tobi for his involvement in the massacre. That's why he asked Itachi who his accomplice was. After learning the truth he wanted to use him for Biju power. Then to locate Danzo & obtain EMS. After killing Danzo he told him they weren't allies. First thing he did after recovering from the transplantation was kill Zetsu. As for the villagers. Uchiha were ordered to be wiped out. No mercy. As revenge he would do the same to them. Too cruel, but rational.
@@Sasukeis6-0againstNaruto When did he give any indication he had plans to kill Tobi anytime in the future? I read the chapters again with Itachi and he just asked him about his part and his intentions in the massacre. Not one line indicating that he searching any info before considering kill Tobi/Madara. There is no reason to believe that the killing of the Zetsus has anything to do with plans to kill Tobi, or anything besides to test his powers or because they were in his way.
But if he indeed planned to kill Tobi, that would be indeed more coherent of him. But even still, if you see any rationality in thinking that some hundred or thousands innocent babies from konoha deserve to die because some dozen uchiha babies were killed by order of a few top administrators from the village decided to respond the coup that would put all the village at risk by killling including perhaps a bit more than a dozen uchiha babies, all that while 99,9% of the village didn't even know about this order, then we have completly different definitions of what rationality and emocionality is. Also, having only hatred for the babies his because of such an abominable and unforgivable sin that neither they nor their parents had any part, while having only love for Itachi, the main executioner, just because he did this for love for Sasuke is quite emocional, and not reasonable. Sasuke himself defends his position by saying something in the likes of "if anyone disagrees with me and think that I am acting emotinal, than I will kill everyone they ever cared about. So them they can understand a bit ofm y hatred". All that after saying that he values Itachi's life, the main executioner of the clan, more than the entire village. That's impossible to obtain a higher certificate of emotinality than that. There is no reason. Just the pure hatred of a brat who can't deal his emotions. Or can't deal with the "Uchiha Curse of Hatred" retcon that Tobirama explainded.
@@ericLpereira1989 Chapter 385 page 3. The village treated Naruto like trash just for having Kurama so how do you think they treated the clan suspected to having summoned it? Uchiha were already oppressed for generations before the Kyuubi attack. Kept from any governing position despite being a founding clan, then faced further discrimination after. The problem was systemic. For example, theres a reason the Sand and Sound wanted to destroy Konoha rather than just overthrow the leaders. The citizens shared the same beliefs. They'd just replace them with like-minded people and the same problems would occur. Innocent kids will be raised to be the same. I'd prefer he only wanted to kill the elders & change the ninja system, but becoming so angry made sense.
The "Curse of Hatred" isn't a retcon. Uchiha progress their greatest power from hatred. Consistently shown with Sasuke. It could be through positive emotion but given their line of work (especially in the warring states era) it was usually negative.
@@Sasukeis6-0againstNaruto
Dude, you don't have to mention any of the 200 pages that showed the village treating Naruto as trash. I"ve read the manga. Also... chapter 385 page 3 is Itachi and Sasuke talking, with 0 mention to Naruto or 9tails, much less any village treatment. Anyway, Naruto's treatment was in part because the villagers saw the Kyuubi himself in Naruto. The bijuu they didn't have suspicion of being responsible for the huge suffering caused to most of the village, but absolute certainty of it. Also, Naruto made things worse in his michiefs and pranking just to get attention. It's a different reason than suspiciousness towards Uchiha, and there is no information towards how many of the village indeed believed in their involvement. But for all it is demonstrated, Sasuke is never showened receiving any kind of bad treatment from any of the villages in his time in Konoha. Quite the contrary, he seems to receive only admiration and friendlyness in the academy (and if you think that that doesn't count because most of the people he met there were kids and had no idea of any Kurama rampage nor suspicion on Uchihas....well, just try to compare how things were to Naruto again. The hatred and mistrust from the adults were transmited to their kids when it came to him. At the least this should indicate that the bad feelings towards Naruto were bigger than those towards Uchiha). There is no dialogue indicating any known adult characters prior to the Uchiha massacre, like Kakashi and the oher Jounins, nor Hiruzen, mistreated any Uchiha based on suspicions. All we get is some talk from Tobi that suspicion grew in the village. That's no reason to take for granted neither that there wasn't a substantial number of citizens that weren't suspicious, nor that those who indeed were treated Uchihas like trash. And when it comes to times prior to Kurama's rampage, the evidence grows even shorter. No scene demonstrating any mistreatment towards Obito being a Uchiha. Nor repports from either Itachi, Fugaku or non Uchiha characters. Off course, I'm talking bout the manga. Don't know about the anime nor light novels and don't care nor see relevancy in then when it comes to the manga.
The curse of hatred is new information presented without foreshadowing, changing previous views towards the story and it's characters (no one had oficial clues leading to believe that sharingan activation had, by itself, any effect in the minds of Sasuke's, Obito's or other Uchihas. Sasuke's behaviour after awakening them against Haku changed nothing. Nor when agaisnt Naruto. Nor Obito's. In fact, it would make more chance to say the contrary, not that I would believe it was. Sasuke sacrifices himself trying to save Naruto in the bridge. And when fighting Naruto he seems less psycopathic and with less killing intent than when he was just trying to kill him with a smile on his face, though it could be due to lesser influence from the curse mark as well, or due to simply considering Naruto as more of a friend). Therefore, I see it as something that fits the criteria for being considered "retcon". But whatever, it's just semantics.
@@ericLpereira1989 I cited chapter 385 page 3 in response to you claiming he never planned to kill Tobi. Things were different for Naruto but being shunned by the same village your clan founded, served & protected for generations is worse. Uchiha also realized their oppression was in place long before the Kyuubi attack. They were relegated to the Police Force to keep them isolated & away from governing positions. Face to face Sasuke was left alone but you said why yourself. He wasn't misbehaving like Naruto. If everyone was fine with Uchiha they wouldn't have been relocated to the outskirts for years. Do you think everyone was oblivious or Konoha is a dictatorship where citizens are scared to speak against government officials? It's far more likely that many agreed with them.
Sharingan doesn't change their minds. Their minds changing, typically from hatred, creates Sharingan. It's like a curse that their greatest power is gained from negativity.
14:23 In Japan samurai and ninja existed at the same time so their inclusion was probably to reflect reality. Akin to how several nations having Biju is like several nations having nukes in real life. It balances power.
18:27 - Well he was right. The Kage would hide Naruto and Bee but the war would force them to come to the battlefield.
19:04 - The alliance was getting destroyed by Zetsu's transformation trick. They survived due to Sakura figuring it out & Naruto telling them apart due to his newly obtained Kyuubi chakra mode. Tobi also had Rinnegan & Gedo Mazo under his control.
29:28 - lol literally once.
The one thing that would make this arc better would be if itachi also implanted Tsukuyomi in sasuke. Itachi knows Danzo would come after Sasuke eventually, so it makes sense for him to try and protect to Sasuke in the same way he did for Obito.
Imagine if during the fight sasuke managed to cut off the bandages around Danzo's head revealing Shisui's sharingan, and then itachi's mangekyo suddenly forms an Sasuke's right eye putting Danzo under tsukuyomi. Danzo and Itachi could have a conversation beyond the grave, and then once Itachi attacks, Danzo could use Izanagi to escape from Tsukuyomi!
Itachi isn't able to one shot Danzo like he probably planned to do, but maybe it would be enough for Sasuke to survive. In fact if you made this the way Sasuke escapes from Danzo's paralysis it would be a really nice omage to naruto being saved by Minato during the pain arc.
@DygoKnight If you think this is cool it would be so awesome to see it in your rewriting naruto series!
This is why I love the rewrite you did so much. There is actually BUILDUP to some really cool characters
I love summit Sasuke. Bro lost his fuckin mind that arc and was just a crazed maniac.
All he wanted was to go after Danzo. Sasuke is given a lot of crap such as what you mentioned but he never really started any fights he didn't deem necessary unless the enemy attacked him first. Obito also sidetracked him too much by having him fight all the kage but to his credit, I suppose it worked out for him since he needed to awaken his susano and visual prowess to even stand a chance against danzo.
This take is VALID!
Totally.
I love that anime excusive exchange where Kakashi appears and boxes Sasuke up a wall with no music playing. It was very well done but I wish it lasted longer.
I dont need to watch the video.
Acknowledging the glory of the Five Kage Summit arc has earned my absolute respect
You know what I wanted from this reunion? Fight between Sasuke and Sakura, even if entirely in genjutsu, to cap on the implied perfect chakra control she has that was a setup back from the first arc, with them having exchange in taijutsu as well, and Sakura actually going for an incapacitating hit before Naruto pops between the two, bocking both her hand imbued in Kabuto-esque medical attack, Sasuke's sword, and Kakashi, who would try to jump Sasuke from behind, all the while split in three clones, staring each of them in the eye. That would be hell of a reunion.
sakura? that's useless piece of shit who wanted to kill sasuke? nah she desvered to die. Sasuke should have ended up with karin. At least she was loyal and didn't wanted to kill him just because he went berserk.
5 Kage is where I caught up to week to week releases and thought that the 5 kage summit was the closest Naruto had to a grander scale of world building ala Onepiece and was really excited for the future of the series... and then was disappointed heavily by the War Arc. So the 5KS always stood out to me as the last great arc.
I'm at 28:14 and just wanted to add my view on the genjutsu not being used thing. I think that genjutsu mostly feels like a sharingan ability for most of the series since it's pretty much only Uschihas that actually use genjutsu. The other few times that it's used then it's pretty damn awesome, i can only remember Kakashi using that awesome genjutsu on Sakura in the bell test, the flute genjutsu that was used later by Kabuto, the frog song and that Kurenai jutsu that got flipped on her by Itachi.
I'm still wondering why Sasuke didn't immediately copy the raikage's lightning armour after seeing him use it.
wtf? this is one of my fav arcs and repeated it the most i recall
im surprised people didnt like this arc. i loved sasuke and this arc was like his villain era, and yet, he was just an angry emotional teen, broken, and consumed by his power. no one tried to understand him or talk him down either.
It was amazing, especially in the game also it gives high stakes and shows us that through and through
It's crazy, when I rewatched Naruto, I watched up until the 5 Kage Summit ended(mainly since I wanted to get to the point where Tobi declares war).
I only didn't continue the rewatch after since I didn't want to watch the War Arc again. I did go to the ep where Madara bodied the Alliance tho and watched that. XD
The Naruto vs Sasuke fight in Storm 3 at this time was so cool as well. It showed that, even if he was fighting a nearly-blind Sasuke, how Naruto's training had improved his abilities without having Sage Mode be required.
Also, Naruto sadly charging his Rasengan against the sadistic Sasuke, in a somber moment, really added more oomph to the "Our roles could have been reversed" moment.
Why do genuinely people defend Boruto. This quite random but 2 chapters in a manga don't make it "good". Not all of Dygo Knight's opinions are respectable but most of his opinions are valid and factual. I saw some people defending the "AMAZING WORLDWIDE KOTAMATSUKAMI" and Dygo Knight is just another Boruto hater. Ngl, touch grass and watch some good shounen. I would rather be happy you watch Rent a Girlfriend or say the Ishikki fight was peak.
This opinion might be quite a*s but I just had to say it.
Boruto supporters have no standard. Even dried, stale bread is master chief delivery standard!🍞😢 lol
The Peak of Naruto, ngl
I love this arc and the world building. The only disappointing thing was that the samurai didn’t pay off. I thought they were going to be strong and cool but they were just cool.
2:02 i love how gaara was big chillin all relaxed in the back when zetsu came through
I’m so happy someone finally made a video about this arc. It’s one of the best in all of Naruto. There’s just something so cool about raiding the biggest gathering of ninja so far in the story.
five kage arc was a great way to highlight sasuke’s progression after the big naruto spotlight in pain arc. i see it as two sides of the same coin:
pain arc conclusion shows naruto at his unflinching optimistic peak so far, while five kage arc shows the lowest depths of sasuke’s unflinching drive for vengeance. and both naruto and sasuke have to face an insane gauntlet of battles that test them to their limits at that point: naruto vs all six pain, sasuke vs five kage, samurai, danzo and team 7.
the two arcs complement each other really well
Only dygoknight would have sasuke as his favorite character
😢No me
One ny favorite arcs tbh, Danzo vs Sasuke, Sasuke running up on the 5 Kage, seeing all the 5 Kage togther, hearing the back stories of the kages and there villages, Danzo getting exposed for stealing Shisuis eye, Naruto curving Sakura, everyone finding out the truth about Itachi, Obito drclaring the 4th great ninja war, Obito telling his plans finally about why the Akatsuki wants all the tail beasts. I think this is one of he top arcs imo.
The action was top tier in this arc. My nit is that the cost of the Sasuke hype train was ultimately the esteem of the kage, especially Danzo and the Raikage. With the way Danzo was fighting, you'd be surprised to know he ever trained with geniuses like Saru or Tobirama. It was all hacks with Danzo, no strategy. Crazy that the leader of the root doesn't fight like the pensive, brooding villain he was propped up to be. The Raikage also showed himself to be temperamental and short-sighted. He would sacrifice himself at the start of a war, when his village is most vulnerable (they think they've lost both their jinjuriki), just to avenge his brother? Like yeah, maybe the ninja world gets a bit safer with Sasuke gone, but now your village is in complete disarray. I was surprised he still went on to be the leader of the joint forces after the fight.
All-in-all, it felt like a lot of potential was sacrificed to accelerate Sasuke's development as a threatening figure. I'd really prefer a prolonged tension between Danzo, the other Kage and the Jonin of the Leaf, and for Raikage's first showing to be a subversion his outward appearance. Making him as brutish as he appears was a safe, and dumb choice.
Idk why people would hate Sasuke. I've always liked his story and Naruto equally. He's basically a second main character
omg I loved the deidara and assume fight, im sooo confused I didn't even know these topics were even a thing? like I didn't know people hated that fight , cause I always hyped it up and literally had that fight on replay lol. but ya this is good to know , cause it news to me. also cursed mark sasuke was one of my favorites, I missed him being able to regenerate and use snakes and striking shadow snake , along with that hawk curse mode state in curse state two omg that shit was sick. its just super unfortunate because I wish they allowed him to retain that a little bit longer , I think they made itch remove it way to soon. that would have still worked I just wish it would've happened way later so we can see some more crazy fights with those abilities
The name "Five Kage Summit" alone is badass to say like goddamn. I love this arc so much, a calm before a shtty storm (the horrible war arc)
I love this arc so much! Sasuke is my fave character so I love everything about it. I also never though that sakura's confession was completely a lie. I think she does love naruto, just not in a romantic way like she loves Sasuke.
There were some good moments for sure, but I agree that the arc had too many plot points, it just felt less coherent than the Pain arc, in which Naruto's, Jiraya's, and Nagato's past all connected, and the connections were revealed bit by bit. I think that is why the Pain arc is my favourite, because of the great structure it had.
Zetsu's betrayal snapped sasuke and he was not his usual cool self where he analysed everything.
I dont know if I can do this but would like to suggest a video topic that NO ONE ever approached and I would like to see your take on this.
In the Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm series there are many boss battles that change the main events of the series to accomodate to a game setting. Could you look at some of these changes and give your opinion if they are better made in the game or anime/manga?
The big changes are: Naruto & Sakura VS Kakashi, Gaara VS Deidara, Naruto VS Sasuke (Tenchi Bridge Arc), Jiraiya VS Pain, Konoha VS Nine Tails, Naruto VS Sasuke (Kage Summit), Naruto & Bee VS Tobi, 5 Kage VS Madara, Kakashi & Obito VS 6 Paths Madara, Guy VS 6 Paths Madara, Naruto & Sasuke VS 6 Paths Madara, Naruto VS Sasuke (Final Battle) [This last one only has a mid battle scene]
Would really appreciate it and sorry for all the details but wanted to make all clear for you!
People hating on this arc just dont appreciate how much thought and awesomeness there is.
"Painful Decision" is the best episode in Shippuden. Change my mind.
Honestly most manga/anime have an underrated arc bleach is the perfect example people tend to hate the fullbring arc
The thing I remember about this arc (in the anime) is that the Naruto centered scenes felt like a drag and the Sasuke parts were not that hyped up because it got interrupted by Naruto and Sakura depression too often.
Shippuuden really did fuck up every chase scene lol
Every time teacher leaves the class, i get on top of a table and say: "I declare the fourth great ninja war"(and this quote is from Kage Summit arc)
I think the reason why someone would dislike the 5 Kage Summit arc is because it starts with Danzo grabbing the Hokage position in a fashion that at first feels rather contrived. And from there Danzo as a character feels forced upon the story in an unnatural way. It’s difficult to swallow at first passing. But here’s the thing, his character is actually brilliant. Well written, well executed. He is a great character, not just a great villain. But he takes away the things we don’t want taken away from us. Tsunade’s title, Sasuke’s freedom, the ability for the other Kage to conduct a summit under good faith. These are things vital to our own understanding of a better Konoha. But he’s consistent and he’s an accurate portrayal of a tyrant poetical figure. So for those who have given the arc a second watch with an understanding of the character and his delusional thought that he is making the world a safer place, it lands so much better. It went from one of my most disliked arcs into one of my favorite. It’s amazing how perspective can do that.
You sound like a Sasuke apologist, trying to justify sasuke's horrible behavior.
I don't get why People hate on Naruto taking flak for still trying to save Sasuke in this arc. Before the Pain fight, it would have been totally justified to call him out for being way too concerned about someone obviously too far gone.
But now Naruto isn't just trying to naively get Sasuke back, he has gained the overarching goal of stopping the cycle of violence once and for all. It just so happens that this entire concept is right now completely focused and centered on Sasuke on a scale that is both more concentrated and at the same time at the largest scale to date. In essence, Sasuke now embodies the entire concept globally, not just to Naruto but to the entire world. That means to Naruto getting Sasukes ass saved is the most obvious and most important step to stop hate running rampant in the Ninja world. It might never be as concentrated as now ever again, so this might be his only chance to change the world.
That is also why I believe he has the panic attack. It's not just his duty to the Leaf, the world or to Sasuke, he's seeing the whole cycle of violence unfold right in front of him and realizes that at this moment even thoug he knows all the consequences it's going to have, he's completely unable to do anything about it.
I'm saying it here, if Sasuke died here at the five Kage arc, thematically there would have never been lasting peace in the Shinobi world. There may have still been a Shinobi Alliance, but it would have gone the Tsuchikages way off splitting up again into fighting each other after the threat has been resolved.
Was fine before to. Like Iruka did for him, he wanted to save his fellow orphan, a person who risked his life to save his multiple times, from going down a dark path (Naruto hated the villagers and wanted revenge against them). He also felt he wasn't worthy of becoming Hokage, being in charge of protecting the entire village, if he couldn't save Sasuke.
@@Sasukeis6-0againstNaruto Yeah I agree. I'm just saying it's probably easier to make a case that he should have abandoned Hebi Sasuke at Orochimarus place than the Taka Sasuke at the five Kage Summit. While he was less far gone at the time, he was already pretending to be just as bad as he truly ended up being.
That being said, I'm not personally on the side of either argument, I'm just granting them legitimacy. To me, only if the Pain Arc hadn't happened but Sasuke still attacked the five Kage Summit, that is the only situation where I'd say Naruto would truly have been in the wrong to pursue Sasuke. because the Iruka and Hokage reasons alone aren't enough anymore to justify that.
My problem with this is it started the sasuke personally change i mean before this sasuke taka vs killer bee when he care about his team but when this happen he suddenly dosen’t care about them at all. Could you talk about how sasuke goal keep changing after the summit arc
It's pretty much explained before the summit when tobi reveal to taka that they fail to capture bee and it only happened because sasuke cuts one of the eight tail tentacule to save karin which is a scenario that terrefies sasuke where his bonds got in his way and made him weaker.
That's why in the summit when he's mad, blinded by rage and hatred he became stronger, abandonned juugo and suigestu because they're slowing him by their weakness and by piercing karin he obtained his goal which was killing danzo.
It was to show that when sasuke is surounding by bonds he's "weak" and not succeding like when he fougth gaara in the forest, itachi in the hotel, the nigth of the massacre and his fight bee with taka.
But when he decide to sever those bonds he's stronger and succeed like against naruto at the final valley and here with danzo.
It was his lowest point in the serie and it's one of sasuke's character theme to think "that loniless makes you strong" and one of his flaws.
It was a great character developpement for sasuke and in the war there's another change caused by his meeting with itachi and the hokages.
Of course it was sad to see him not caring for taka but it just made him more interesting at that moment and fortunaly in the war arc, sasuke asks them to forgive him and they became friends again.
I think sasuke didn't care about karin in particular cause she didn't provide benefits other than being a healer,once she fullfilled that purpose he no longer cared.
Simple. Seeing Danzo increased Sasuke's anger and he wasn't going to let them get in the way of revenge. His goal changed once after the summit. Seeing Itachi again made him reconsider things. So he questioned the Hokage to get a better understanding. What is a clan? What is a village? What is a shinobi? Why would Itachi sacrifice our clan to protect Konoha as it's loyal shinobi?
He learned how in an era of constant war his clan formed Konoha to create peace. He decided that rather than destroy the village for mistreating them, he would ensure what they strove for wouldn't go to waste. What changed after that was the method he used. Initially he wanted to handle things alone through his revolution plan. Til Naruto convinced him to work with allies.
I agree with the same stuff you mentioned in this video. Keep up the good work! 😎👍 I'm subscribed.
No Clickbait. This is the Dygo content I love. 🙏🏽
It’s Peak Sasuke 👌👌👌👌👌
Never heard a single soul say the Five Kage Summit was ass
Because it is well writted
It's arguably better than the Pain arc. Both are similar in that they involve Biju hunts for Eight Tails, focus on the cycle of hatred & have a climatic battle with a respective main character.
Pain Invasion has an advantage of involving more legacy characters in a classic location. While the Kage Summit has an advantage of focusing on important new characters in a new setting. Sasuke's grudge against Danzo was greater than Naruto's with Pain making the battle more personal. Plus the choregraphy & character development was better with Sasuke's fight, but Pain had a better flashback than Danzo & the destruction of Konoha coupled with the "deaths" made things feel more tense. Mangekyo was executed better than Sage Mode (in lore, build up, how it was obtained, used & affected the user), but Naruto may feel more hype because he actually became competent. Doing what Sasuke does on a regular basis - pull off smart tactics.
Overall the series ends with a better shine on Sasuke's development than Naruto's from those battles. Sasuke kills Danzo, takes his role of protecting from the shadows & does it better. Whereas Naruto tells Pain he has no answer on how he will obtain peace (despite inheriting the goal from Jiraiya years earlier). Then gets lucky the villages united for the war allowing him to ride the coat tails of temporary peace. And unfortunately like with Pain, he has no answer to Sasuke on what he would do if the villages went back to fighting after the war. He just insisted on working with everyone.
Whereas Sasuke's plan for peace was better than Pain's & involved him making a self-sacrifice for peace which he scolded Danzo about when Danzo took Karin hostage to preserve his life (chapter 480 page 13). He threw Danzo's words back at him, took his role & did it better. While Pain threw Naruto's retorts back at him ("What about my family? My friends? My village?") which made Naruto shut the f*ck up (as did Sasuke's response on why the villages united, their potential separation & how he his abilities allowed him to always be around to watch over the world. Funny how Naruto questioned how Sasuke's plan would fare after his death but didn't apply that logic to himself). Granted he did good in overcoming hatred by choosing not to kill Pain. Breaking the cycle of hatred & revenge that Pain was convinced everyone was in.
I understand why most people dont really like five kage arc, but keep in mind that this arc is the first time we were introduced to the other 5 nation other than hidden sand. (atleast in the manga, i dont really know if some filler actually took place on those nations)
This arc shows that jinchuuriki/akatsuki conflict isnt all about konoha, and actually im looking forward to met a brand new character that can expand the story a lot more from those nations, much less than simply about naruto vs sasuke things...
Only for kishimoto to ditch most of them on the very next arc, and buff the hell out of naruto and sasuke just for them to get even more spotlight.
15:50 Enton would have impaled him like Naruto's clones at the Valley and or sliced him up like Kaguya's ice. Chidori penetrated his armor. Sasuke knew how sturdy it was & specifically used Enton spikes to overcome it. Otherwise he'd power Susano as he did seconds later *when needed.* TANKING the Sand siblings & Darui's combined attacks. Last resort - Tobi and Zetsu would step in as they did later. They were watching the entire time.
Dude shows panels with Raikage fighting but only mentions that Mei Interacted with Sasuke lol
Five Kage Summit arc was great and had a lot of tension. Definitely got me excited for the future. Naruto's drake moments where he was touching himself thinking about Sasuke leading up to it though were weird.
Wow the perception of the 5 kage summit arc was definetly influenced by how great the pain arc was, just speaks to kishimoto's genius
I always loved this arc too, watching Sasuke going hard out was sick!
Easily one of the best
5kage summit is just peak sasuke. seeing him go wild was sooo good
Lmao you're basically forgetting the fact that plot armor was spread everywhere throughout the whole taka team, especially Sasuke who would've died a million times already. Sasuke was also progressively getting too edgy which a lot of people hated the arc, Yeah he was experiencing intense trauma from his past but at the same time just casually betraying everyone left and right.
We didn't even get Sasuke vs Kakashi which is true that it's a missed potential and Danzo vs Sasuke was basically just another wasted potential as well with Danzo just casually wasting Izanagi, Obito vs Torune and Foo were much more interesting to see.
Sakura was just doing what sakura does all the time aka being useless, She was just spreading uselessness all around this arc like covid and there was no improvement or resolve that she passed through the War Arc, Everything was on the hands of Tsunade's training and power of friendship bs that made her (Slightly) be more useful
This arc made me actually change my mind on Sakura she’s a pretty well written character
