Why Lightning Style Is So Broken In Naruto

- Why is lightning style so broken in the Naruto series? Out of the 5 Nature transformations in Naruto, lightning style seems to be the most powerful. Jutsus like Raikiri, Chidori, Kirin, Indra's Arrow, and the Raikage Amps make it seem like lightning style is just superior to other elements.
Besides, Sasuke was using lightning style up until the last fight in Naruto Shippuden, and using it effectively. Foe example in the Naruto vs Sasuke fight or even in the Naruto and Sasuke vs Madara fight. Other elements never got the treatment in the story. But why is lightning style so much strongers?

What's your favorite lightning style?
Lighting Chakra Mode, Chidori, and Kirin!
Kirin but can you please update the rewriting Naruto I have commented on 3 vids now
The classic Chidori/Raikiri. Never got old in the series, and it never will.
The one that Saurto uses
kamui raikiri
Lighthning was good at first because it used to consume massive amounts of chakra so it automatically balanced itself so it would make sense
They can pretty much spam lightning now. Everything else is useless in comparison
The only person burnt by fire is orochimaru and he thought it was awesome.
@@MrREAPERsz yeah remember when they used to have a limit to how many times they can use Chidori? Lol “if you use it a third time your chakra will reach absolute zero, in other words you’ll die” 😂
who told you that?
@@picassoggz6571 You're really comparing a 12yr old that can only use it three times to a 16-34yr old, acting like that person can't improve after years of training...
@@kijanajenkins2546 Except kakashi (you know, the creator of the jutsu) could only use it 4 times per day
He should have taken notes from the last Airbender to figure out how to make the other elements look cool.
Ignoring the fact that naruto came out way before avatar
@@Maja-mh6yc true
@@Maja-mh6yc Yet Avatar finished years before Naruto did.

How is that relevant to his point?
@@afro4640 lol it had 4 chapters shit went quick lol
Kirin is one of the jutsus that can inherently hurt a Ten Tail Jinchuriki, break and/or destroy a Truth Seeking Orb because it is NATURAL lighting beast that Sasuke controls.
kirin kills ishiki easily. it comes from nature which is the weakness for otsutsukis
@@tonypaca3015 in the comment section of "Why Amatarasu became a useless jutsu," video, a lot of people are downplaying Kirin, so I just did some research regarding the lore of Naruto. And it definitely does damage or extreme cases, kill, Otsutsuki's and TenTail Jinchuriki's.
You could say that I'm sick of people downplaying Kirin, and the reason why they do that is to downplay Sasuke because it's a Sasuke exclusive jutsu.
@@aut0mat1c11 people are illogical when they like some other characters. Kirin is natural and it’s the strongest natural ability, way stronger than kashin koji fire he used against ishiki. Otsutsuki can only absorb chakra based ability and not natural
So shooting fire into the sky isn't considered natural but the storm it causes is??? Nah makes no sense. That's like setting off a nuclear bomb and calling the nuclear winter natural.
@@marquisbean1752 ya. Same way (natural) climate issues are caused by artificial (chakra) human actions. You’re not dumb and you should know basic stuff like this
Kakashi's lighting wolf would most definitely be a dangerous to a Avarage Shinobi joinin. The skill required to even shape chakra like that is very underated.
yea it got shadowed by massive abilities of rinnegan/pain
Unfortunately it isnt as fast as we wish.
@@gentletal5101 That's an anime problem
@@AK-su3tz exactly in manga the wolf wasn't running to reach deva path, it was just there in next panel in front of him, i don't know how nagato even reacted to use shinra tensei.
Lighting style is OP because of it penitrative capabilities through vibrations of Lighting. It the second most piercing element with the added speed and shock factor. Plus, the main character Sasuke and Kakashi use Lighting style as well.
Yeah you see lightning for the first time and it kills someone. A decent ninja dodges every other element except lightning.
@@MrREAPERsz To be fair, no one *ever* tries to dodge Chidori/Raikiri until after the time skip. Haku literally put himself in the way. Sasuke uses it on a *immobile* Gaara. Every other time, it's explicitly used head-on against another jutsu, either Rasengan or Gaara's sand arm.
There natural affinity is lightning
I think the main reason lightning style became so powerful is that 2/4 of the main characters use it as one of the main natures so it naturally had a lot more powercreep
Also I need to say this, in Boruto 3/4 of the main characters use lighting style as their main nature with Kawaki having fire style and keep in mind the vanishing rasengan is a lighting style jutsu
vanishing rasengan is a wind style jutsu. I believe they made an error when they stated it was lightning (in the movie?)
@@druski888you’re both correct but its called kyoton when you mix the 2 elements
@@JKingMustang what?? source?
heart style is also insane, it allows you to use the art of mimetism and with that your invisible basically unless your facing a dojutsu user or a a sensory type, its also presumably is what allows onoki to fly
I think there's a few typos...
"kakuzu is fodder" kakashi literally needed 2 raikiri just to stealmate that lightning attack
Lol kakuzu gets no respect, his elemental attacks were crazy. Plot armour made them kill him
@@yaadmaan Motherfucker was told to kill Hashirama. The fact Kakuzu survived is a testament to his skill.
@@yaadmaan true he is underrated af, it wasnt plot armor
He fisted him from behind, caught his false darkness, and ended him with it
Yeah people are crazy. Kakazu was a problem and top 20 ninja during his lifetime. Not a joke at all
Wind Style is also broken and OP as well, despite being underrated. Rasenshuriken and Danzo Wind Style Jutsu were broken AF! With Wind Style, you can enhance your kunai and shuriken and create slicing vacuum waves or wind bullets. Plus, you can probably fly and cut through anything with powerful Wind Release Justus. A Wind Release Chakra Mode would be fast and deadly sharp compared to the Lightning Chakra Mode of the Raikages and Sasuke.
I would've liked to see a wind chakra mode
Rasengan used to destroy with twisting and great force. Now, even Sakura’s punch can make deeper holes in rocks.
@@quentinjones6877 I imagine it would look like Soi fon's(Bleach) hakuda technique
@@dark-winged-angel136 maybe, it would probably cut up the enemy if they get too close
Ok you know, i agree Danzo wind style is a monster have u seen him in storm 4?!
TBH I think Earth is probably the strongest of the five basic transformations. Heavy Boulder jutsu lets you petrify people and increase your physical hits by a lot. Lighten Boulder jutsu lets you fly (because reasons) without any special Kekegenkai while also letting you transport heavy objects and increase your movement speed. That earth style hardening Kakazu had, for as much as we meme it, gives you a really solid defense that presumably scales with experience and ability. You can make earth style golems. Earth style mud clones like Orochimaru used are some of the best clones in the series. Mobile Core lets you change the battle field in a instant. And to top it all off Earth is one half of the three strongest double element transformations, Explosion Style, Lava Style, and fucking Wood Style. If you take Filler as cannon then it’s also part of Crystal style meaning literally all of its combinations are broken.
I would personally choose earth style if I was going to be a ninja, but I'd have to avoid lightning style like the plague. Unlike literally every other style, lightning is a full counter to it's opposite element. Fire can hold up for a bit against water, but lightning straight up turns off earth element jutsus.
And the OG particle style
Yeah go earth if I was in narutoverse I would be a earth user because I'm a capricorn and my element is earth there for water = wood when combined so my ego is high because I would potential become a hashirama
Kirin ggez
Orochimaru was using the substitution jutsu, not clones
I wish the Wind Style/Wind Release had got the same or comparable treatment as the Lightning Style in the manga and show. Considering how much it's hyped up at the beginning of Shippuden as the titular MC's ONLY Nature Transformation we almost never get to see its potential. Yes, we had Rasenshuriken, which was cool, we had a glimpse of Fuuton Rasengan, which should've become Naruto's main close range offensive option instead of the regular Rasengan, IMO, and we also have seen a couple of wind jutsus done by Danzo and Sora. For a show called "Hurricane Chronicles" there seems to be a lack of, well, "hurricanes" and such, if you ask me. Imagine what could've been done if, for example, Naruto had received proper elemental training from someone capable of more than infusing a knuckle blade with chackra (no offense, Asuma). Invisible and ungodly sharp wind blades than extend from weapons, providing phantom reach, wind cannon, wind bullets, some form of vaccum style jutsu that just sucks out air from a specific area. Hell, even a Wind style version of Kirin, a natural dragon-like or a bird'like creature made out of a tornado.
U just gonna forget temari cutting down a whole forest with wind style?
you forgot that Asuam did say that Ninja with winds nature chakra is rare. If the user rare, then the number of people who try to exploit that nature in fighting is also small. Hence, the one to be used as reference would be small too.
So far, most of ninja with wind element always uses it in the shape of blade. The first time that occurs is a Ninja from sunagakure who killed that referee. And then, Temari. Then comes Asuma with his windblade. And then Danzo. You see, almost no versatility.
Asuma himself said, that manipulating the wind chakra is the hardest than the others chakra element. But his capabilities in offense is the greatest.
I'm not agree by this video about lightning style is a broken. It's about how to use it. In term of offense, indeed, lighting has better use. But Fire has wider ranger. Most ninja with water chakra has a better chakra manipulation because it is easier than the rest. And earth is more solid, good for defense.
So, it's like you compare a spear with a shield. Would you say that a spear is broken tools, and say that shield is so lame?
Lightning style rarely be used for protection. Until you find Raikage. But that's another level of Ninja.
In term of difficulty to control :
wind > lightning > fire > water > earth
In term of offensive ability
wind > lightning > fire > water > earth
In term of defense potential
earth > water > fire > lightning > wind
In term of versatility
fire > water > earth > lightning > wind
In term of area of effect
Fire > Wind > Water > Earth > Lightning
Talking about area of effect with lighting, of course it can be used for wide area. But this condition will minimize its offensive capabilities by far. Lightning's offensive capabilities come from using a bunch of chakra and condensing them into the small, making it sharp. If not, then it only gives a stun effect, not piercing.
Here pro and con that I can come up from the series.
- Water is more balance, and gives the user a better control in their chakra, but the least offensive.
- earth is more rigid, gives the user solidity, have better offensive than water, and better defensive than fire.
- Fire is more fluid, gives the user versatilities, can attack a wide area, good for crowd control, and the technique doesn't need extra ability in manipulating or controlling chakra. You don't need to control, just release them wide. It's all about how much chakra you are going to use.
- wind is more stronger, gives the user stamina. but it's hard to control and hard to manipulate.
- Lightning is more sharper, makes the user more critical in fighting, but it consumes massive amount of chakra to make it effective, while in most, it is a pinpoint attack that focus on one target. Not good for crowd control. The most chakra consumption.
Now, you need to compare them in the same level of jutsu class. Don't you ever compare a Kirin with Kakuzu's earth style solidifying technique. Don't compare Gamabunta's Mizurappa with Asuma's wind blade. Don't compare earth wall with Raikage's lightning protection.
Lightning was always a power I wanted when I was a kid
I think water style got done dirty. There's just so much you can do with it. And memorable and powerful shinobi like Zabuza, Haku and Kisame helped cement it as something to be taken seriously.
I still remember when Kakashi got caught in the water prison and Zabuza said that it's stronger than steel lol.
I guess that that's a joke in late-game Naruto, but Water Style definitely could have used a boost to catch up with all that power creep.
All the elements easily can combat power creep
We later see earth style: sand witch mountain
In boruto Water style is kinda OP. They did a better job of respecting in like part 1.
Elements of written correctly ard buff in boruto honestly think they tryna fix a lot of issues they had towards the end of shippuden going back to the roots for exsample taijustu way more used. And they said natural elements that come from the environment are immune from getting absorbed so basically any earth style , water , wind , ( lightning if it’s kirin, fire like what koji did )
Haku was more ice style
You can use it. But its manifested quicker and amplified if it has a nearby water source the only dudes who dont need it are Tobirama, Darui and Zabuza.
Kakuzu's lightning jutsu had a huge area of effect lol, all his elemental jutsus looked crazy
I have no idea why this dude keeps saying that Kakizu is fodder, dude survived a fight with hashirama, plot armor did him dirty but one can't seriously say a shinobi that has +100 years of experience, all chakra natures, 5 "lives" and is a beast in close combat to be fodder....
Exactly why I am not subscribed to this dude, I watch sometimes some of his more interesting stuff that pops up on my board but in general he has very shallow thinking.
@@MegaSupernowa Exactly my reason for not subscribing either
Dude came straight out of fucking Dark Souls just to fuck with ppl
Could it just be that people with different nature transformations advance in their respective arts at different speeds? And that in each generation, there is an uneven distribution of geniuses and innovation per element? For what we saw in the series, in this specific time frame it just happened to be lightning. And Kishimoto particularly enjoys drawing and writing around that element in particular.
You know what’s crazy? Did you know that Hinata has the same chakra natures as Sasuke originally did? Those being Fire and Lightning. Can you imagine how insanely powerful her or any Hyūga, like Neji, would be if they utilized nature transformations into the Juken?! Especially Lightning to increase speed, power, their strikes into the tenketsu, and even into Vacuum Palms?! I’m pretty sure Kishimoto knew how OP this would have been so he didn’t even try it, but still, I feel like a lot of people were robbed of this. Especially those who wanted to see Hinata kick some real ass and have more moments than just her clashes with Pein and to a lesser extent Neji.
Her twin lion fist is literally lions of flame lol.
Hyugas would literally have paralyzing palms if they used Lightning Style with Gentle Fist and the Trigram Taijutsus.
@@KaiKrimson56Hinata lion twist is actually combination of fire element with her chakra.
⚡️Lightning Style is overkill ⬇️
▪︎enhances attack
▪︎enhances defence
▪︎enhances speed
▪︎enhances weapons
▪︎strong against 2 of the natural 5 elements
▪︎has an after affect after impact
▪︎can create a move without chakra
Lightning is just so op as a nature 💯
You forgot, lightning Style takes the most Jutsu so it balances out
@Sly I didn't forget anything, my list is purely some benefits of the style
i hear its gonna be buffed next patch bruh.
Funny how he remembers boruto has lightning style but only mentions the flash bang with the shuriken and forgets thunder clap arrow which i know might not be the strongest but on his weight class at the time it was pretty decent
Goes to show he doesn't truly care for Boruto or the fact that Boruto's generation actually use hand signs and nature transformations like Lightning Style and Wind Style.
Exactly especially with the karma power boost he used against code and Naruto, just shows didn’t care to research
It's funny cuz Sasuke could easily have used all the chakra from the 9 bijuus to use a fire style jutsu and use against rasenshuriken, cuz he would have elemental advantage, but despite this he use a lightning jutsu that have disadvantage just because it's too strong 🤣
Just look what happened when the entire wind battalion all combined their attacks against just one lightning element jutsu, and then Naruto finished it off with a rasenshuriken. Absolutely nothing. Because lightning doesn't have an elemental weakness.
@@ClashBluelight it does have a elemental weakness but since wind style is pretty rare (I think) and no one mastered it to a level that it could counter kage level lightning style.
It seems to be unbeatable
@@friendlycreeper1045 Rasenshuriken is S rank. It's also the strongest wind element jutsu of all time, and is a forbidden jutsu. There's literally no better jutsu in the world to hit the raikage with, and that one was landed after 1000 others.
@@ClashBluelightit literally went through the 3th Raikage's lightning cloak and made alot of cuts and lacerations,just because he stood back up due to Edo tensei Regen doesn't mean it wouldn't have been the end for the Raikage if he was alive,reminder that that was one of thousands of Naruto clones having access to one 1000th of his chakra and 9 tails chakra yet it still injured him,a full grown battle hardener 50yrs+ man who had decades to master Lightning style and cloak while Naruto was a 16yrs who had Wind training for a max of 2 weeks, that's impressive
@@superoakwood5513 Explain chidori outperforming rasenshuriken then. Sasuke got his hand buried finger deep in the raikage's chest with a normal chidori, which is a lethal blow. Also, Naruto's age and training time don't matter if he's using the best wind jutsu ever developed, nor does chakra amount. He had enough chakra to make the jutsu, therefore he was able to use the jutsu.
6:25 Overall I would argue that the Earth Style Mountain Jutsu would be a Kirin level equivalent in terms of power and scale, we only don’t see it because the 10 tails brushed it off (though I Imagine he would also feel a tickle from Kirin) but from a normal ninja/human perspective, imagine a stone wall SEVERAL miles wide, tall, and thick closing in on you very quickly from both sides, and it was all done by one stone ninja (I think)
It was done by one guy, but with a chakra amp and minutes of prep time. We get to see the normal version of his jutsu, and it's smaller than Jirobo's earth dome prison.
Earth ninjas would basically be on the level of Alchemists like the Elric Brothers, Armstrong, and Scar from Fullmetal Alcehmist with that jutsu.
Boruto is the type of kid that will learn limbo clones somehow, and instead of them working for him they will just beat him up
Lightning is definitely the most direct and offensively oriented of the 5 basic elements, but it has its own drawbacks. It's insanely difficult to use Lightning Release because it typically only exists in short bursts and requires incredible control and stamina to use. Lightning Release techniques are also the most direct and focused, whereas the other elements, particularly Fire Release, tend to have much larger AoEs and persist longer, with Fire, Water, and Earth Release having persistent effects on the battlefield, whereas Wind and Lightning Release do not. Lightning Release is also typically very flashy and loud, so while it is popularly used for sure-kill techniques like the Chidori, it lacks much of the subtlety of Earth, Water and Wind Release, with Wind Release being especially devastating because it is essentially invisible and doesn't leave as much of a footprint. Furthermore, Lightning Release trades offensive power for defensive strength in most circumstances, so against sufficiently powerful jutsu of other elements, especially Wind and Fire Release, Lightning Release will lose out.
Lightning turns off all earth element jutsus. Wind has absolutely no effect on lightning. Lightning is literally the only element with no weakness.
@@ClashBluelight no, lmfao
@@Luke-cb3ly The entire third raikage fight proves my point.
@@ClashBluelight The Raikage's are some of the best lightning users.
@@kijanajenkins2546 Ok, but it was over one-thousand wind element jutsus with a rasenshuriken finisher by Naruto. Also, that same argument should apply to Deidara and Kakuzu, who both have their jutsus deactivated instantly by any lightning whatsoever.
Lightning style is OP
hebi sasuke and sasuke shinden makes lighting style look so badass
What makes this all funny is that lightning isn't even an element. It's a mixture of elements. Yet they try to make it one...
Wind is too. As well as earth. And water. Water is hydrogen and oxygen, wind is nitrogen, carbon, hydrogen, argon, and oxygen, and earth is basically the rest of the periodic table. Oh, and fire is at the very least carbon and oxygen.
Problem with lighting is that, it has attributes that it should not have. There is no reason for lighting to be piercing, the entire premise of Raikiri or Chidori is nonsensical. Wind should have been the only one with piercing properties. It also does not make sense for lighting to be very precise like how Sasuke extends it, it is lighting, not a light beam. It is also not cutting, so Kakashis lighting cord also does not make sense. Drawing such a cord makes sense, but if anything gets caught between it, it should be paralysed and maybe burned but not cut. The only thing that can make lighting cut is if you channel it through metal objects, those metal objects get very hot. But that is just the heat you can get from fire style being created indirectly, so no one that can use fire style should have used lighting for cutting.
Lighting should have been paralysing, it should have been fast, but very hard to precisely control or aim, just like how real electricity works. Instead it was paralysing, fast, precise, piercing and cutting. It received 2 attributes it should not have and was given the inverse of its weakness.
I recall that the idea with the chidori/raikiri was to use the explosive power of lightning to help the user pierce a body right through with a short burst of power that can't be blocked; IRL lightning can break concrete and pulverize rocks etc. so it makes sense for it to be able to pierce things if it's focused on a single point; and the way chidori/raikiri looked made it seem as if it was a struggle to even hold it in place, much less focus it. Remember how Kakashi had to hold his arm with all his might the first time he used it in the Land of Waves arc? Or how the chidori was created because lightning release was too hard to control to be put into the rasengan so it just collapsed and took on that form?
Later on, the amount of precision it gets it's just dumb. Sasuke just releases a burst of electricity into Deidara's bombs and it disables them? Some say that it's because Deidara's kinjutsu was a mix of earth and lightning but that just makes it even worse. Like, did Sasuke have control so precise that he voided the polarity or the chemistry of the bombs to do that? Or is it just that lightning style breaks down the clay so it can't go off but it somehow leaves no damage on his tissue? It was just absurd.
I personally would have made lightning all about speed advantage. If you use it on yourself, you get faster. If you use it on your opponent, they get slower. Lightning being able to stun opponents while boosting the user's speed would have made it incredibly powerful. We could even keep chidori if we did this. Just have Kakashi hold a kunai. He uses lightning element chakra to speed up his arm to lightning speed, and the kunai becomes like a hypersonic missile in terms of its effect on its surroundings. There, chidori without giving lightning the special attribute of wind. Then, I would nerf lightning a little bit by making it have a very high chakra cost. Lightning users would be able to absolutely dominate any 1v1 for a few seconds, then they would have to take a break to recover their chakra. It would become the favorite element for ninjas who like quick sure-kill strikes, and fast escapes. Then I would make fire the AOE type, water the all rounder, but only usable around water sources, wind would stay the cutting type, and earth would remain slow and defensive. I feel that would be the balanced way to handle the elements. If we did this, we wouldn't even need the elemental weakness system, since all the elements already counter each other as Yamato stated.
@@loliH9 Nah, they said that by vibrating and refining lighting chakra, they condense it and make it pierce which does not make sense. Your version could have made more sense if it was applied to the foot rather than the tip of the hand.
Lighting pulverizes rocks, not because it is very good at it but rather because the magnitude of power a lighting has is incredible. But the only comparable thing to it is Sasuke's Kirin, not a Raikiri.
I can see lighting having one point of contact, which can create a weakness at one point, but even water is more suited towards piercing and cutting than lighting. People use lasers to cut but not electricity stream.
"who made you a jonin?"
bruh that's uber disrespectful 😂😂
I think the different jutsu types are simply what the ninja makes it. I could imagine a ninja developing a devastating water style jutsu but at the end of the day it's up to the ninja to find out how to make their jutsu more effective. lightning style is naturally Dangerous so of course it easy to make a destructive jutsu throw lighting on someone and that's going to cause damage but throw water on someone and it's just a splash lol. I do think the other jutsu types have the same potential its just being held back by ninja's creativity/kishimoto.
While yes it was big moments when Sasuke hurt Gara and Sasuke soloed Yamato. A big part of that is due to the inherent strength of lighting over the main chakra natures of the two characters.
Gara uses sand which is made of Earth, and according to the element system Kishi made, Lighting> Earth.
Yamato uses Wood Style which is made of Earth and Water. Both are elements lighting has an advantage over. Earth because of in universe rules and water because it's a really effective conduit for electricity.
Other than I agree with you. Lighting definitely has some major favoritism. I would have love to see some more variation and respect to the other chakra natures. Like why no wind dragon technique outside of video games when there are water, earth, and lighting dragons? Even in Asian mythologies Dragons are still heavily associated with the sky, so why no wind dragon technique outside of video games.
did you watch Rock Lee vs 'Old Master' ? sorry I'm being too lazy to Google his name 😅
Lightning chakra mode is op, it's only a B rank ninjutsu but it has the power of an S rank. It gives you a massive increase in defense, speed, strength and gives the Raikage chakra compared to a tailed beast.
I don't know why other characters aren't learning it , it gives boosts comparable to opening the sixth gate or normal sage mode but with no downsides
Because it would be boring if everyone used the same nature. Also every jutsu has a weakness .
It takes a lot of chakra( remember kakashi could only use 4 per day or he dies in og naruto) and it needs to be precise to cause damage ( the hospital roof scene).It is mostly the coolest nature power though.
What about Gaara's sand and the other Kazekage's sand. Naruto and Temari with wind? Hashirama's wood style is essentially earth style. Tobirama and Kisame were good with water. Sakura never used any ninjutsu in the series though (shock).
Kishimoto sleeping on water style. Remember in ATLA where the fire guys made an empire from their element. Or when Katara could use blood bending.
Blood bending was really cool idea from the writers.
She used clone jutsu, summoning jutsu, mystical healing palm
I mean to be fair, Mizuki (who's a better Brouto protagonist than Boruto) has some cool lightning jutsus.
boruto isnt canon
@@nankono oh mb
Theoretically wind style should be just as versatile as lightning style but for most of the series we get a fcking rasengan and it’s variants
I mean wind style is also broken? In part one we have Temari that clapped everyone no difficulty and there was no counter to it as well. IN Shippuden we had RasenShuriken that is a beast jutsu and Danzos wind blades were also pretty powerful.
I think its more that lightning is just cool looking and easier to milk for likes later on in the show. Part one was a lot more balanced with jutsu
She clapped everyone and used a summon just to show off. I found that funny, she didnt need him
It makes sense with real world lore. Lightening is pretty op.
Yeah being hotter than our sun and able to hit you in a flash of light is very OP I’m surprised it wasn’t even more op in Naruto how can you even dodge a flash of light?
@@jamesmadden4327 even itachi couldn't, but it can be blocked. Props Itachi. Sasuke killed team 7 with kirin in an alternate dimension.
Fire is almost always lame in anime, simply cause fire is too OP in real life, there is no way to depict the damage of fire in a kids show. So they have to nerf it to hell and make it fodder.
In reality kid naruto on the roof top being totally engulfed in flames would just be dead, or very severely and permanently injured.
Simply put in anime you show someone being hit by lightning and getting shocked and walking it off, there is no way to show someone getting 3rd-degree burns and walking it off XD.
This is why roy mustang from FMAB will always be the greatest fire user. Dude showed how OP fire really is.
Lightning is the most versatile of the 5 elements and it’s definitely Kishimoto’s favorite since Sasuke showed his progress with it when he fought Deidara.
It definitely isn't the most versatile, its just the most directly useful in battle, and the series leaned way too heavily on the ninja battles side of things.
Tbf, a kids' show isn't going to promote arson by showing fire as OP...
Not only is lightning cool, but it is also hard to imitate.
The target audience for naruto are teen boys
@OceanMan Yes, kids, minors, juveniles, people who would make a dumb decision like play with fire to look cool.
The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child defines child as, "A human being below the age of 18 years unless under the law applicable to the child, majority is attained earlier.” This is ratified by 192 of 194 member countries.
In the Infinite Tsukuyomi anime, Burrito infuses lightning style into his rasengan to... make it invisible...? (?)
It's not stronger, it just turns invisible for a few seconds after he throws it and since nobody knows how to fight in that anime, it catches some people off guard.
That's it.
Sad!
Lighting is so OP because majority of the Main Cast uses Lighting Style. This we gonna see more of it and more of its versatility
Earth is the most interesting after lighting, it has Jutsus that affect the hardness of objects as well as ones that mess with gravity.
It’s funny the one of the only jutsu that lets you fly is an earth style jutsu not a wind one.
I’d still argue this is more or less due to availability heuristic. I think string Jutsu of other natures are not only less common to get screen time but more impressive due to what truth you are saying, being it’s raw power in much of the way we colloquially use it
Most being more like older folks ig. It’s how we usually it like, “we lost power”... nvm. 😂
Shout out for the menacing effect from Jojo
Honestly, fire should be on par if not better than lightning. What we see generally is a red or orangish red fire which are the lower tier colors. From coldest to hottest it goes: Red, Orange, White and Blue with some shades inbetween that I just didn't feel like writing out. But if ninja were to start using white and blue, then they would be pretty lethal, ranking probably A at lowest.
white should be above blue imo
@@wisequigon How so?
@@afro4640 the sun is white, any explosion at it's core is white, all colors combined make white, in conclusion white denominates the highest level of energy.
@@wisequigon The sun is nowhere near the hottest or largest star out there. Blue is also more energetic thermodynamically than white. Take a look at these:
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stellar_classification
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_temperature
Also, read up on black body radiation if you have the time.
When Hiruzen used fire style in the anime and the flame closest to him got blue and then white was so cool.
I wish we saw more cool things like that from fire style but Dygo is right. Fire does too much damage to be allowed to be effective. It's either a one hit kill that ruins any fight, does disabling damage harsh enough to incapacitate someone possibly for life, or it leaves a character disfigured and in pain; or all three like Dygo's version of Yamato after the fight with Kakuzu.
Lightning style isn’t OP. It just happens that lightning users have strong Justus that use lightning. These aren’t regular ass characters using this. If fire style isn’t strong, why Madara make a fire jutsu so strong that like 8 people were needed to counter. It’s just about who’s using it. The same reason Naruto has the only notable wind style jutsu, because he’s strong. It’s more character favoritisme than elements. Kishimoto had an issue with spreading power out to multiple people, you can tell who his favourites were.
The 3rd and 4th Raikage are also genetically gifted. They’re huge… maybe other smaller physically weaker characters wouldn’t be able to utilize the lightning armor to its full effect
It's just a black people stereotype. It doesn't really mean much
They never faced a solid wind style fighter. When 3rd was hit by temari, he was covered in lacerations.
There are a few topics that I think you could make videos about.
1- Jirayia’s gennin team. Who they could have been, and cool ideas about what kind of characters they could have been.
2- An analysis of the tragic storytelling in Naruto
3- An analysis of romance storytelling in Naruto😅
4- Anko’s wasted character potential
5- Potential onthology series that could have been (one about Killer B for exemple)
I like how lightning style is supposed to be earth style's weakness, yet Darui beats Suigetsu's water style with lightning style.
Yeah Lightning is able to combat both
Wind also has absolutely no effect on lightning throughout the series. Lightning turns off all earth jutsus, but wind has no effect on lightning. Totally fair.
@@ClashBluelight you are completely wrong. It has already been shown in the anime that strong wind jutsus have the ability to extinguish fire jutsus, and wind jutsus can block lightning jutsus. just like ashura did to defend himself from indra's lightning jutsu. in addition Kakashi is one of the best users of the earth style in the entire anime, he created a jutsu based on the earth style that creates crystals that can absorb lightning style jutsu. wind jutsus can cut and can also be used to increase the user's speed.
@@Luke-cb3ly How much of that is manga canon? Because I finished rereading the manga about a month ago, and I didn't see any of that. I did see an entire battalion of wind style users combine their efforts against a single lightning jutsu and have absolutely no effect.
@@ClashBluelight You're still wrong because of common sense wind beats lightning when the jutsu are the same strength. Chakra level and also shape manipulation plays more of a factor.
I suspect that wind and fire techniques were developed to kill normal soldiers and cover a wide area against fast opponents, earth was developed to defend against other ninjutsu, water was developed as a balance between attack and defense, and lightning was designed solely to kill shinobi.
I've been loving your Rewriting Naruto Series, so a video I would really like to is you finding some way to improve the Otsutsuki characters so that they are at least good.
There's a very easy way to improve them
@@DygoKnight make them disappear ??
Other than get rid of them?
Make them have a greater purpose other that the seek of power\chakra just for the sake of having more chakra... I went Dragon Ball Super way + Christian religion inspiration (we already have Shinto gods names and some Indian references so why not Christianity) and imagined a Otsutsuki progenitor\father, let's say Adam who have been imprisoned by God for consuming the first chakra fruit from the first divine tree that God created (it's purpose was to be like a light beacon for this universe as the God wanted to travel in other Univeses in search of a Goddess) and the Otsutsuki children mission is to collect all the chakra for Adam so he can get revenge on God for his imprisonment... ( the idea is more complex...maybe I'll write an essay as well :D )
Well lightning is one of the most power full and fastest elements of nature., it can shock and burn at the same time.
Boruto uses "Thunderclap Arrow" which is basically just throwing lightning, and he also combines lightning with water style.
However, he also combines the Rasengan with lightning chakra nature to create the Vanishing Rasengan. Unlike the regular Rasengan, this can be thrown and used as a stealth jutsu since it turns invisible before striking. However, in Momoshiki's words, it's "too weak to be a mortal blow, but still painful if it hits your vitals" (Boruto episode 218). This is due to its compressed size.
The reason Boruto's jutsu is so weak is because of how little chakra he has. He's only able to make 4 shadow clones at a time, and also has to worry about Momoshiki manifesting if he uses too much.
I thought vanishing Rasengan is Wind Release?
@@ZenoDLC No, in the episode where the 5 Kage fight Momoshiki, Sasuke says Boruto subconsciously combined the Rasengan with his lightning style to add a change in chakra nature. However, Boruto can also do a Wind Style Rasengan -- not Rasenshuriken -- and he learns this in the Deepa anime canon arc.
Edit: The episode is number 65, and the quote is (dubbed) "He used his forte, lightning style, and unconsciously changed its chakra nature"
@@ZenoDLC nope it’s lightning, but Boruto created a green rasengan which is him using wind style on it.
Yes he yeets a bolt of lightning like a javelin .. too bad sarada is the only one with potential in storm 4 on the team.
@@gentletal5101 Mitsuki also has a lot of potential with his Sage mode and other abilities Orochimaru gave him.
Wind Style was pretty broken in Temari and Tenten's fight (we don't see it in the manga, but we can assume it happened the same way). Tenten should have won that fight, but she loses solely because Temari's Wind Style blew her weapons away.
Speaking of fire style how the hell did did naruto get hit with it go through it and not get hurt that sort of thing happened a lot I just forgot who got hit with it what's up with that
Or Kajin Kojin, who was hit by Konohamaru`s Karyu Endan, a B-rank jutsu, and didnt take any dmg.
Or Jigen, who didnt taked any dmg from Kojins fire jutsu. Even the finisher needed some time to beginn to burn him.
Or Kawaki vs a no name genin. Who is hit by his fire jutsu and sayed, it is simply not strong enoiugh to dmg him.
It doesnt matter, if they are hit or not. They simply dont take dmg or much dmg.
From a physics perspective lightning would be insanely OP. Lightning can reach temperatures exceeding 50,000 degrees, which for the sake of scale is hotter than the sun's surface. Hitting someone with lightning would essentially melt them because of how damn hot it is. It's no exaggeration to say that lightning would be more effective at killing people than fire jutsus.
plus it literally tracks targets like a " lightning rod'"
Deepa Earth style was pretty sweet.
Deepa manipulating carbon. His signature ability was to control the molecular-bonding of the carbon that he is exposed to. By properly rearranging it inside his body, his skin turns dark and reflective akin to metal, which also turned the edges of his fingers into razor-sharp talons.
I thought it was cool that he can make dense carbon cube bullets, and even change the size of those cubes.
I can tell DygoKnight doesn’t pay attention to Boruto, since we learn that Boruto made vanishing rasengan by adding lighting chakra, which impressed Sasuke lol
I hope in your rewrite you will make naruto get water style since Kushina was a water style user
What about that one guy in Sasuke's novel that had the tornado kekkei genkai that went toe to toe with Susanoo? The novel that had the ketsurygan.
Typhoon style
@@quentinjones6877 Thank you
It still lost to lightning
Appreciate the hollow knight background music
IMO water is the most underwhelming of all, mostly because, without water nearby, casting water jutsu is heavily weakened (fire or lightning don't have this limitation). The only powerful jutsus are from Kisami (with his chakra levels, anything would be powerful) or kekkei genkai.
The chidori is the first thing to hurt Gaara in his entire life...
You should do a video about if an Earth Style Ninja that can do the Mountain Sandwich Jutsu could survive the Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood universe.
Great points but wager style has the bullet projectiles and pierce just like light. Some crazy shit with that one large with that doll flying around
I think a nice drawback to give Lightning release is that it requires a lot of chakra control to use to its full extent due to its volatile ecstatic nature. Makes sense cuz Sasuke & Kakashi are known for having great chakra control and use their Lightning release with shape transformations.
The Raikage got around this drawback by just using the simplest forms of Lightning release to enhance their physical strength & speed. Darui, who is more calm and focused, is proficient with the more conplex Lightning releases and also uses Storm release.
Contrast with Earth style which I think would require more raw chakra reserves to take the nature to its full extent, and Wind style which seems to rely on maybe Stamina (being able to sustain a chakra release).
Fire seems to be the all rounder of the 5 whereas Water release seems to mostly rely on Shape Transformation.
Just my little theory. If anything I'd maybe switch the places of Fire & Wind releases, making Wind the all rounder and Fire Stamina based.
Wish Kishimoto would go into the nuances of each release.
This is an amazing theory ngl
@@brianukah6100 Thanks man 🙂
Kishimoto will unlikely go any deeper but I just saw the announcement for Naturo: Akatsuki so here's to hoping we get more exposition and history
I would argue that the aftermath of an Element is also important:
- Fire means burns, and long term scars. Either the Fire is weak (therefore no scars), or so strong that the target is no longer there. It might appear that some characters as a burn face or something, but you have 2 characters maximum mostly in backstory.
- Wind (in Naruto) is more like a Cutter. It does those nice "slice" easy to draw, with some blood. Basically, the second strongest after Lightning here.
- Earth means bruise or crushed. Technically, the "strongest" so dumbed down to be anecdotal. Just like in combat, Hammer is more efficient than Sword, but Sword is more 'stylized'. It suffers the same fate as Fire: either too weak, or "deadly" (well, Obito kind of fit here?).
- Water is more a "support" element that can justify everything. Basically, Water can be a good element, but all depends how creative the writer is.
- Lightning has the easier aftermath: just make the character shaky a few second, with maybe some spark and its done. Not scar, no bruise, no cut. Easy element to work with as a drawer.
In short: Lightning and Wind (as Cutter) is easy to work with. Fire is impressive but too deadly to make it efficient in a universe. Earth is like Fire, except it is underwhelming. Water is a really versatile element, but behave badly as a powerboost: Water is mostly used as support (trap, ice projectile, healing...).
Kirin is a fire style jutsu too. Heating up the sky. But aight.
By giving it the piercing effect, lighting became the most versatile element.
Also worth noting is that Lightning Style is the only element not used by a Tailed Beast.
Shukaku uses Wind, and Magnet Style is a combination of Wind and Earth
Matatabi uses Fire
Isobu uses Water
Son Goku uses Lava Style, which is a combination of Fire and Earth
Kokuo used Vapor Style, which is a combination of Fire and Water
Saiken uses Water Style
Pretty sure eight tails has used lightning style at some point
@@BeegzBomb pretty sure eight tails uses water style
I mean like what can you expect a bull headed octopus to use water style ofc
@@friendlycreeper1045 eight tails uses Ink style i think
Corrosive style from Saiken
Listen guys... Expecially Naruto fans... If It wasn't for KURAMA Naruto would've freaking died
wind style will always be the best invisible blade!
I think it all just depends on the person. Its not the element that's strong, it's the person that makes it strong. Neutrally I think they are all equal yet have different strengths and weaknesses.
But they don't all have strengths and weaknesses. Lightning turns off any and all earth jutsu, while wind has absolutely no effect on lightning.
Why cant Mei use Wood release or an Kekkei Tota?
Chakra natures are just fluff. Like hand-signs, ninja ranks, etc., they're all supposed to be in-universe concepts and props that all got tossed by the wayside once the characters started becoming walking nukes.
I think with enough creativity all element could look cool, I mean water dragons was pretty cool.
Madaras Fire Anihalation jutus is pretty cool
Fire and Lightning is obviously Plasma Release and Wind and Lightning, Ion Release. It's right there... use them.
Remember the counters and buffs circle? Yeah screw that. Lightining apparently counters both earth and water while buffing water attacks. I've also not seen once wind countering lightning.
Fire is cool only when Roy Mustang uses it
I think it's just because of the users....
Technically and canonically, all 5 styles are equal....
To each is own bro
This I think it is more an issue that the story leaned far heavier into a shinobi battler, which scaled to absurdity, rather than the shinobi world and missions where things other than your combat power are shown valuable. Basically Lightning style looks the strongest since we never have to see its weak side that its a style with limited utility and all the subtlety of a lightning bolt.
It bothers me so much and makes no sense that lightning beats earth. Kishimoto clearly never played Pokemon.
@Mitistouchyamama the earth won't be charged, though. Earth/the ground neutralizes and disperses the electricity. Although this is ninja magic and I shouldn't look into it too seriously
"Lightning is strong against earth because it can easily travel through and break the ground apart but weak against wind because it is a natural electrical insulator." 🤷♂
@Mitistouchyamama that’s bs. It’s a fact that ground insulated electricity.
my head cannon is that kishimoto had lighting represent the skies and the heavens, which is where the logic that earth> lightning comes from
Danzo and the uzumakis are beast when fighting against anyone.
Danzo and Tobirma use cool and strong air/water jutsu !!
Wasn't expecting the Hollow Knight music
It should be noted that the 3rd and 4th Raikage are so broken with their lightning jutsu because their taijutsu skills, physical power, speed and durability are already broken enough...
You are adding wings to a tiger... aka, boosting what is already strong... so it's not that lightning was strong but they happened to be strong with lightning...
And actually, the Rasenshuriken DID beat the lightning armor.... it's just that the Raikage's body was even tougher...
And Sasuke had the chakra of NINE tailed beast, but Naruto still tied while using ONLY the HALF the Kyuubi.....
Can't wait for the "best kekkei genkai" video
Deidara was using Earth Style and it was pretty cool xD
Also, with Indra's arrow wind chakra literally beats lightning and they still tied.
🍃 Wind style is above lightning.
Also indra arrow is a "juubi lightning arrow"
Naruto should have learned more Wind Style jutsus.
I’m really surprised he didn’t mention lime light at least once
You make the most creative vid
I feel like this is kinda a silly argument just bc the choices kishimoto made follow pretty closely with the elements themselves. Lighting travels faster than anything else so it makes sense that it was able to help accomplish such crazy feats.
I can actually see the 3rd Raikage tank a perfect susanoo slash xD but no way to fight back... XD kinda op because he could...run away from actual threat
Well 3rd and 4th raikage became raikage because they had the lightning release mode. There is a very big difference between lightning chakra mastery and lightning release mastery.
If you have any other release like fire release mode you can become kage too, like just imagine fire release mode or wind release mode that would be super cool and powerful
Hidden mist I'd say for water. Heavy or lightening for earth style. Massive rasen shuriken is closest for wind style. Fire Is just done for outside of ameterasu
Nakama style is still the GOAT here, hands down. Lightning style thought is awesome looking :P
