Thread: Is water the weakest element ever in Naruto?

i think its not... it depends on the user... coz shark boy kisame is a water type and also the 2nd hokage... and i think and its obvious that they're not weak...

I think part of the reason Kishi's Sasuke haxing pasttime. Since lightning is Sasuke's most commonly used element he keeps showing it progressively stronger from fight to fight. Like how wind chakra was supposed to be specialised for cutting but both Sasuke and Killer Bee's lightning makes for more effective cutting jutsus than anything Naruto has.

Then again this sort of logic was never Kishimoto's strong point. Lightning beats Earth? Earth GROUNDS lightning, you dumbass! And how exaclty is lightning supposed to beat wind when normal air doesn't conduct electricity? This manga was written by a guy who came dead last in high school and never went to college(no offense meant), so don't look for scientific accuracy in it.

Win

I long ago quit trying to look for internal consistency in the mechanics of this series. baddasses win regardless. The hero will be on a perpetual beat enemy/lose to enemy/get stronger/beat enemy/lose to enemy cycle whatever his element is.
