Naruto Fights That Should Have Been

[Warning: Don't attempt to read this blog post if you do not follow the anime or the manga, I won't be explaining anything.]

Naruto is one the most popular anime and manga. It can also be said it is the top most viewed manga and anime, and its popularity never seems to lessen or end. And neither does the story.

In this post I picked out fight that would have been a treat to watch. And here we go:

Fight #5 : Hashirama Senju (First Hokage) vs Madara Uchiha.
No doubt this would be one awesome battle to watch as both were really powerful ninjas and had an arsenal cool techniques. We could even see the full extent of Madara's "Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan" and how he could manipulate the Kyuubi.
Chances of happenning: Maybe as a flashback of the one battle which already took place at "The Valley of End".
Who might win: Hashirama Senju
Why: Duh, He has already defeated Madara.

Fight #4 : Kakashi Hatake vs Itachi Uchiha.
I know there are two different occassions where Kakashi and Itachi come face to face but that weren't the full-scale battle I was hoping for. This is one fight I was hoping would happen big-time. With both being ANBU members and taunted to be geniuses, this would have been a battle of battles.
Chances of happenning: Not happening, coz Itachi is dead.
Who might win: Itachi Uchiha
Why: Being the original successor of Sharingan and having sharingan on both eyes definitely gives him the edge.

Fight #3 : Neji Hyuuga vs Sasuke Uchiha.
Both happen to be No 1 rookie Ninja's of their age, both being as Genius of their respective clans and both having a "Kekkai Genkai". This would be a fight of eyes more than anything. The Byaakugan vs the Sharingan.
Chances of happenning: Slim chances.
Who might win: Sasuke Uchiha
Why: Susanoo, Ametarasu and Tsukiyomi [Mangekyo Sharingan].

Fight #2 : Minato Namikaze (Fourth Hokage) vs Nagato (Pain).
This here would be a fight between a fearless leader against the one with the "Rinnegan". Also, Fourth hokage could kill in cold blood and not stand and sissy chat with Pain. It would have been skills against pure power.
Chances of happenning: Not happenning, both are dead.
Who might win: Minato Namikaze
Why: Naruto did it.

Fight #1 : Naruto Uzumaki vs Sasuke Uchiha.
All the battle between them up until now are like trailers and the big battle is surely lining up. And both have grown very strong and both have defeated one tough foe each.
Chances of happenning: Soon, my dear friend, very soon.
Who might win: Naruto Uzumaki
Why: Seriously, Lead Character (LC) = (CL) Can't Lose [Mathematical Equation of Manga and Anime].

You can watch few of these battles using the Naruto Video Games. If you dont own the game, check the videos at youtube.

[NOTE: This post was written before Naruto 488 episode of manga was out.]

Until next time.

Manga - A New Addiction

Manga are comics and print cartoons, in the Japanese language.In Japan, people of all ages read manga widely.The genre includes a broad range of subjects: action-adventure, romance, sports and games, historical drama, comedy, science fiction and fantasy, mystery, horror, sexuality, and business and commerce, among others.

With the development of the Internet, manga have made their way into the other parts of the world and gained wide audiences in the youths. Most of the well known manga are also made in Anime(Animated Cartoons). Now there are many ways to obtain an manga ranging from online order and few others. And best part of all its translated into english by the publisher.

The peculiarity of manga is, unlike the comics, its read from right to left. An illustration is given below :


And before ending the post, Few suggested mangas:
Naruto:
Twelve years before the events at the focus of the series, the nine-tailed demon fox attacked Konohagakure. It was a powerful demon indeed; a single swing of one of its nine tails would raise tsunamis and flatten mountains. It raised chaos and slaughtered many people, until the leader of the Leaf Village - the Fourth Hokage - defeated it by sacrificing his own life to seal the demon inside a newly-born child, whose origins are as yet unknown. That child's name was Naruto Uzumaki.

Air Gear:
Minami "Ikki" Itsuki, is a student and a delinquent. Also known as the "Unbeatable Babyface", Ikki is the leader of the youth gang by the name of "East Side Gunz". Upon his return home after being humiliated by a street gang of Storm Riders called the Skull Saders Ikki discovers a secret hidden from him by his benefactors, the Noyamano sisters. The sisters belong to a group of Storm Riders who go by the team name of Sleeping Forest. Keen on helping Ikki to regain his confidence and pride, they supply him with a pair of Air Trecks (abbreviated as "AT"). Ikki eventually settles his grudge with the Skull Saders, but in the process he receives more than the simple satisfaction of revenge. Determined to experience the sensation of flight for as long as he can, our headstrong protagonist is quickly sucked into the mysterious, yet irresistible world of Air Treck.

Until next time.
