Ranking The 5 Nature Transformations in Naruto
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 7 ต.ค. 2023
- The 5 Nature Transformations in Naruto are supposed to be balanced, each with wakenesses and strengths, but the 5 elements are clearly not equally powerful. Fire Style, Water Style, Lightning Style, Earth Style, and Wind Style are very different, some being strong, others actually being weak.
Let's rank all 5 Nature Releases using characters and feats as examples to how powerful each one of the basic Nature Transformations are in the Naruto series.

What's your Ranking?
Electricity can take out both Water and Earth.
1. Lightning
2. Wind
3. Fire
4. Water
5. Earth
@@Tojo_BorsalinoYamato says wind is inferior to fire though.
1. Earth
2. Water
3. Lightining
4. Fire
5. Wind
@@justinarzola4584wind is not inferior to fire, wind is weak against fire, there is a difference
The universal rule of anime is that if there are fire based attacks they are either too op and have to be nerfed and barely appears or doesn't burn anything
Naruto doen't follow that rule.
Couldn't the same be said for lighting being too OP.
@@breathair69420how does it not
except for roy in FMAB
true, fire-based attacks in anime can often be portrayed as either extremely powerful and needing to be nerfed or not causing much actual damage or burning. It's a common trope in anime that adds to the excitement and drama of battles.
My main issue with fire style in naruto is that almost all the jutsu are the same thing, they just throw fire(even though they have different names), and some might say that's a dumb complaint but look of all the creative ways that firebenders use their powers in ATLA for instance
They mostly release fire from the mouth in the Uchiha's case.
I get what you say buddy . Fire jutsus are verry redundants in their form and purpose. But there int much more variety in ATLA
FIRE BALLS , FIRE STREAM AND FIRE WHIP AND KNIVES thats pretty much everything
@@Lysiodelet's be honest, fire knives and whips sound ridiculous as hell😂. I understand that these are animations and shouldn't be taken too seriously in terms of realism, but fire knives???😂😂😂😂that shouldn't be cutting anything, and the whips shouldn't tie round anything since they aren't solid in the first place.
@@t-masterrules5085 yeah sure. In my head fire whips act more like fire rubbon its juste a way to bend fire precisely at long range. The fireball is dodged when its dodged . The fire rubbon( whip) is more persistant menace.
Fire knives...😅well its very useful in subnautica
I really would have liked a jutsu that covers your katana in fire giving both cutting and burning damage
Fire style getting roasted for 30 mins 😭😂
Earth is underrated, it's the most flexible with strong defence, crowd control, stealth, both melee and ranged attacks and even flight. It's also part of some of the best kekkei genkai like wood release, magnet release, lava release, dust release etc
It's the best, no question.
Stealth, done.
Defense, done.
Attack, done.
Battlefield manipulation, done.
Yea earth style is cool. I just hate the constant "mud wall" stuff because it is very underwhelming. But the dudes that create those mountains ti hold down ten tails are fkn awesome!
ppl forget about fudos crazy earth jutsus like impermanence and corpse soil
earth is versatile and powerful, offering a range of defensive and offensive capabilities, as well as unique kekkei genkai like wood release, magnet release, and more.
Overshadowed by the more favoured Wood style
Ice is in fact pretty insulating and resistant against open flames, thats why you can make fire in an igloo without it melting, so the fact that is fire wasn't doing much against hakus mirrors is damn accurate
Wind is my favorite because I love seeing things like Danzo enhancing his kunai to make a wind blade or Asuma with his chakra knives.
So they use wind release to make their knifes that are already sharp cut through things that can be cut?
@@youtubestudiosucks978 It increases the cutting power to cut things that a simple kunai and knuckle knife can’t cut. More importantly it adds length to the weapons and can be used as a medium to perform other wind style jutsu without weaving hand signs making those jutsu twice as fast but just as strong if not stronger.
@@youtubestudiosucks978 Man look at Asuma. Kisame underestimated him to the point he didn't see through Asuma's trick and got cut thanks to extended range. Temari chopped down a big chunk of forest, think of the practical uses it implies. Not only can you make already sharp things more dangerous but also give them properties to beat the BEST element. To me, Danzo should've besten Sasuke. Of course, the plot's always in favor of Sasuke. Also, if you make your kunai more sharp you can have a better chance at cutting through your opponent's blade. Yet another reason why Kishi didn't give other wind-style jutsus to Naruto. He would've destroyed the emo avenger
wind jutsu can be pretty cool, like Danzo's wind blade or Asuma's chakra knives.
asuma and temari showcased the practical uses of wind-style jutsu, with asuma's extended range trick and temari's ability to chop down forests. enhancing sharp objects and giving them properties to overcome other elements is indeed a useful aspect of wind-style jutsu. it's possible that kishi favored sasuke in the plot, and naruto's lack of other wind-style jutsus may have been intentional to maintain balance.@@zahleer
I always felt like Kishimoto could’ve put Lightning style in check if he simply switched its position in the 5 chakra nature cycle with Earth style, not to mention to me it’d make more sense. Think about it: 1. In real life the earth grounds Lightning as it’s not a conductor though water is a conductor of lightning. So it makes sense if lightning were weak against earth & strong against water. 2. Earth being weak against cutting winds makes sense to me more than lightning being weak to wind.
The problem is that Kishimoto gave it a lightning-style property in order to increase piercing power. I suppose that's why he saw that the earth style loses against lightning, he sees it as something that should pierce and destroy, but not electrocute as its main function.
That is why this element is the one with the most diversity, it can be used to cut, it even surpasses the wind element according to Kisame, it increases reaction and movement speed, defense and physical strength.
On the other hand, for example, the fire element can only be used through the mouth, but without the mouth there is no other way to use fire. Maybe Amaterasu has that change, but in the end Kishimoto trampled Amaterasu.
Half of the video is abt firestyle 😂
My thoughts exactly. Powerful lightning bolts can appear with or with out high wind speed
I was confused about Lightning beating Earth from the first time I saw it. However parhaps due to electrical education 😅 later I thought maybe it is not as dumb as you would think. In real life earth grounds lightning - it does because the ground is treated like conductor. In real life water can be conductor but distilled water is an insulator (but of course the Water style in Naruto does not seem to have insulating properties...). While the air is the most common insulator irl, in Naruto it does make sense it is strong against lightning. And there is also the fire. It is known, the high temperature of air actually increases his conductivity, so it would kind of make Fire weak to Lightning.
But there is another side of the coin! And it also concern "piercing power" as @netero1682 mentioned. Unlike you said the ground is kind of conductor and because of this, it attracts the current. What I mean by that is conductors attract electric arcs. I think that specifically electric arcs piercing through EARTH style is a big BS. In fact isolators would be more damaged by lightning strike than conductors because conductors will dissipate the energy and isolators will not.
One thing is Deidara creations made of clay (which btw his style is mix of Earth and Lightning), but the other thing is earth wall protecting/separating a character.
But in the end in the story Lightning style really has no weaknesses. Probably it has something to do with Kishimoto being the biggest Saske fan.
To be honest I think the entrire circular diagram could be turned up side down. Even Water < Fire is not so obvious because it ends up in steam...
Wind is also a natural insulator at room temperature hence why lightning is weak to wind. And earth is strong against water because its sturdy enough to stop the momentum of water
Everybody usually got a issue with fire style because most people evade it but in reality if you pay attention its only use a smoke screen or an attack to create time for another jutsu. For example Madara used his Fire Style to create a Ocean of fire,when the Hidden Mist Ninjas countered it he sent another wave of fire balls (another jutsu) that was hidden behind the smoke screen
You can get the same usage from water style as well tho
Lighting maybe should work as well because it blinds people.
@@Sundilio Most Water Style Jutsu need water to use, unless the user is an expert like Tobirama. Fire Style can be used anywhere.
Sasuke didn’t use fire style against team kakashi in the beginning of the Shippuden, he used his “raw strength”. And to be fair, if you had an upgraded and overall superior technique, that being amaterasu and flame control, it makes sense why Sasuke didn’t use much of fire style after that. Especially if you consider the caliber of that timeframe opponents and Jutsus
Amaterasu was supposed to slowly take away Sasuke’s eyesight everytime he used it, like most other Sharingan-related abilities, but I guess Kishimoto forgot that too
It’s funny tho that the strongest version of fire (I mean Amaterasu) also happens to be countered nearly every single time and is the weakest MS ability. Kishimoto really did dirty to fire.
@@tupoibaran3706 true, very unfortunate
@@Rilteaevery ms ability will make you go blind. Both sasuke and itachi became blind/were about to become blind until sasuke got the ems and itachi died.
If you’re gonna complain about ms inconsistencies then complain about obito because he used his ms for like 2 decades and never went blind
@@Sundilio for Obito it was the Hashirama Cells, otherwise he would pretty much go blind already after the nine tails attack on Konoha and Minato fight. Doesn’t make much sense how Hashirama cells can affect blindness tho.
Funny how lightning style is supposed to be "weak" against wind style but indra's arrow was able to offset naruto's rasenshurikens anyway so maybe lightning is just that powerful
Have we ever even seen anyone use a wind style jutsu to overpower or counter a lightning style jutsu? The closest I can remember was Kakashi blocking lightning with his own lightning, lol. It sure seems like lightning is only weak to earth in theory, but never in practice.
The only other time I remember they used this concept was against the reanimated third raikage where only wind style jutsu proved to be somewhat "effective" against him, but then again Temari was only able to push him back a bit and Naruto's rasenshuriken only knocked him out for a few secs lol
It would make more sense that sasukes attack was just much stronger and the only reason it tied is becouse of the elemental disadvantage
@@AlteredNova04yes. Third raikage fight
@@keej7146Kishimoto is someone who leans a lot towards those who are his favorites, it is obvious that the lightning style is his favorite element and the one that benefits the most above the other elements.
Fire is similar to kunai knives in that the reason it fails isn't because it's useless, it's because it's too powerful. Jutsu or not, most of the characters in Naruto are still only human. Stab them, and they're gonna bleed and die if they can't heal themselves or get to a medic. Light them on fire, and they're gonna die.
only though some of them don't...
true, fire jutsu can be incredibly powerful and deadly, especially against human characters who lack healing abilities. It's a force to be reckoned with.
Me reading in manga or hearing someone in anime say *SUITON* makes me happy every time. Love the different ways it is represented and its been personal favorite since the start, and normally, one of the reasons Kisame is my favorite character.
Yes
In Naruto water is pretty strong ngl. Kisame is just a beast at it. Super strong dude and awesome character.
W water style appreciation
*After 40 something hand seals*
Water Release: Some Random Water Jutsu
suiton is indeed a delightful element in manga and anime, and Kisame's affinity for it adds to his appeal.
Fire is slow, therefore a ninja has time to deflect/avoid/substitute/ etc. Against non ninjas and as weapons of mass destruction or terror they would be VERY useful and impressive.
A fire style specialist would use a fire barrier against taijutsu and mix it with wind style to accelerate/amplify the attack. Would be interesting to see a fire rocket attack or fire tornado!
EDIT: one way to balance them is to make fire attacks spend less chakra and lightning attacks spend more chakra.
actually that true already
true, fire style attacks can be slower compared to other elemental jutsu, but they can still be useful in various situations. Combining fire style with wind style could create powerful and unique techniques like a fire rocket attack or fire tornado. Balancing chakra consumption between fire and lightning style attacks could be an interesting way to create more strategic choices for ninja.
Fire style probably can be fast. It just depends on the user and the fire style. Like Sasuke's Fire style against Kakashi in part 1 during the bell test was almost instantaneous. Generally it seems slower though.
fire style can be fast, it depends on the user and the specific technique. Sasuke's fire style against Kakashi in part 1 was almost instantaneous, but in general, it tends to be slower.@@jauneork278
fire style can be fast, depends on user and style. sasuke's fire style vs kakashi in part 1 was almost instantaneous, but usually slower.@@jauneork278
What if Hikaku Uchiha traveled to the future?
He would solo the borito verse
@@DygoKnight nah. Hed be borito nerfed and loose to metal lee
He'd appear in Borito Too Bloo Vortx and get turned into claw grime
that would be wild.
Nah, he literally takes a glimpse at Sasuke too bluh vorx version and wonders where his Uber( rinnegan) is.
13:00 you forgot the mighty Earth Style: Headhunter Jutsu used by kakashi during the bell test 😮 how could you overlook such a devastating technique??
The Headhunter and Dig Like a Mole jutsus as a concept for espionage, evasion, and ambush is actually pretty broken. The Jirobo earth dome that had the Sasuke retrieval team shit outta luck. The earth walls that block pretty potent justu. The Earth Grudge justu from Kakuzu that made him crazy durable. The Tsuchikage using the lightening/make you heavy justu. Earth bullet users that were going to kill the sannin. Earth wedges that were pinning the Gedo Mazo. Earth golems and other constructs, along with massive upheavals like Jirobo v. Choji, or Hiruzen vs Orochimaru. Earth release has crazy feats, it’s just that it isn’t used very much.
Easily the most versatile release, it can remove anyone from a fight. Be used for stealth, demolition, espionage, construction, traversal, and defense. Best one by far. Water is 2nd.
@@clonedrone3084 amen my guy
@@clonedrone3084 amen my guy
@@clonedrone3084 i kinda come to the same conclusion, Earth is stronger by default in many triavial cases (i left a long comment explaining more)
earth release is indeed a versatile and powerful element with a wide range of applications, from espionage and stealth to defense and construction. It has shown impressive feats and capabilities throughout the series. Water release is also highly regarded for its versatility.@@clonedrone3084
You forgot to mention the time during the fight between Naruto and Sasuke where Sasuke used his dragon flame jutsu which hit Naruto directly and left him motionless on the floor. Sasuke was then able to go for the killing blow on him with the piledrive.
Anime only
@@tonyinfinite5174so what's wrong with anime only battle scenes? It's still canon.
@@rabbss830 fire style still suck
S
Lightning was my favorite in terms of useage post hebi sasuke. He just made it so op.
Fire in a senin series would actually damage or end people like when we saw orochimaru skin peel off so it was definitely nerfed.
Wind had more potential but we hardly saw it used on naruto as he could have done more if he asked hinata or someone.
Water style i loved a ton but nobody really had a use for it aside tobirama and kisame who basically were so busted with it.
Earth is Useless.
Like I said. Earth is Useless
@@XpathTheChojiro Nah earth is cool. it was used to crush the ten tail or Gedo stadue(I forgot) Used to block a tailed beast bomb, and is used to Cary island and fly. Earth style haves the most hax an can be use he is if you someone like Onoki or his Son(I forgot his name). Earth style is good it yes the under use it by using it for things like EARTH STYLE: MUD WALL.
lightning was op with hebi sasuke, fire was nerfed in terms of damage, wind had untapped potential, water style was loved but limited to tobirama and kisame's busted abilities.
I love the way the raikages use lighting style! That lightning cloak is incredible man frfr
Hey, I got a good suggestion for a video for you. Why now talk about why the Hyuga don’t just mix nature transformations into their Juken? I thought about that idea ages ago and wondered why it never happened. My thought is that it’s another tradition in the clan to not over rely on it or you’ll focus more on that than perfected your Juken correctly or something of that nature. Personally, that’s one of the biggest Naruto questions I would ask Kishimoto because someone like Hinata who has fire and lightning release as her affinities (ironically the same as Sasuke’s) and just transfer lightning or fire into an enemies Juken! Now, I know she wouldn’t use the most destructive natures on a person, but on creatures like the Zetsus?! I would actually pay to see that!
I'd like to see a Hyuga none tails jinchuriki. Image rotation and gentle fist techniques with the power of KCM. Poke an enemy they explode. Rotation would gain a huge advantage depending on the attack say fire ball water style rotation. Wind style rotation would slice people up and block lightning style attacks. Wasted potential.
@@joshfarrow9707 8 TRIGRAMS: FURRY ROTATION!
The problem with the fireball technique and its variants is that they're too flashy and block the users' vision, and it's (relatively) slow moving (especially late series). It's pretty much a crowd control ability that is spammed as a main attack. You either need to make it soo big it's impossible to miss, and powerful enough to destroy enemy defenses or do something completely different like an ability to create pillars of flame at a location you can see, or shoot thin filaments of flame from your fingers that you can use like a whip. But no, we see absolutely no creativity when it comes to fire style techniques. It's like the moment the Uchiha clan created the fireball technique, everyones brain fell out and collectively said "-*_This is perfection! We will need literally nothing else ever again! No one is allowed to be creative with fire unless it's to iterate on this!_*-" and we only get to see people actually be effective with fire style in filler, and even then it's only kekkei genkai so it's arguable not even then.
What's everyone's fascination with flames spewing out their face to begin with? Why must it come out of their mouth? To simulate a bellows gusting air into a fire? You can also do that with a fan, and we know the Uchiha clan knows that because the fan to fuel the flame is literally their clan symbol! So why not sweep your hand through the air as if fanning the flames to start burning shit? If you're going to keep breathing flames, at the very least, get creative with it! Like spit out a cone of literal fire needles, sure, it's not likely any needle that hits would do much, but hey, they are small, so no one would expect much, and it would look badass.
Raiton will always be my favorite, in any instance
Kirin and Black Panther are so awesome.
I remember when making an OC with a fire style affinity, the main way he went about using it was to burn the oil on his skin to light himself ablaze. He’d then use this to augment his taijutsu. Other uses were creating fire walls or fire clones. The other elements he’d used were lighting and water.
It's very interesting to see how fire is used in jutsu release manner. Like the characters are supposedly (technically) normal human. They just play creatively with their jutsus so they can be effective. I'm currently exploring the idea of firebending, so the thought of the jutsu version mechanic is interesting
@@tiosevenstarsThat’s pretty much how I thought of using fire style. A combination of fire style and ace’s techniques from one piece.
bro talked about fire style so much that i forgot this video was about all natures lol
Suigetsu Hozuki is also pretty good in water style jutsu
Really love this video
You’ve been dropping banger content after banger keep it up 👍
Appreciate it!
Keeping what you said about firestyle mind I appreciate that you added real consequences to it in your rewrite with yamato
For me from weaker to stronger is fire , water , earth , wind , lightning
I think this is the best way to rank them
Lightning style is the only one that has multiple extra skill trees that will boost things like the fence and speed/stats If you were making a character in the game, he would definitely pick the lightning simply because of the lightning cloak or the speed boost techniques. Along with the debuff or stun moves plus is probably the fastest
Water style definitely my favorite, wish we got to see more of it
Lightning use to be well balanced to the others in part one.
Yes it was op but it had many draw back first the chakra consuption was intense
Then the time taken to do it.
Peoples spaming in part 2 kinda ruined the balance
It shouldn't be the go to.
I would have liked it if there was a fire release that hits an enemy and then the chakra goes into the enemy's chakra network. Then after that the fire release chakra would burn all there chakra until there's nothing left.
I think my most favourite use of fire style was in the first Naruto Shippuden movie.
With moves like fire run and the circle fire ring thing. It seemed the most poweful in this movie
Fire style could have had some interesting uses by applying the heat of it instead. Imagine a firestyle jutsu that super heats all the metal in an area. No more metal ninja tools and equipment unless you choose to be burned. Can fatigue and slow down enemies as well as create an indirect way of removing water from play over time. Could be used for genjutsu via mirages or another form of stealth jursu to hide your appearance. Sasuke used his Fire style jutsu against Itachi to help set up Kiran after all by heating the air. Same idea in support form and more interesting than another fireball.
I cant believe you forgot the iconic a
Earth Style Fanged Pursuit Jutsu
I don't think Lighting is actually strong against Water style jutsu: We never see lighting style used to cancel out or overpower water jutsu, just to electrify it and presumbly amping it like how Wind boosts Fire jutsu. It's just that Suigetsu is MADE of water so he's personally damaged extra by it.
We've seen this in Boruto actually in the chunin exams were he electrified a bunch of ppl in water using Lightning style.
yeah, you're right. Lightning style jutsu in Naruto doesn't necessarily have an advantage against water style jutsu, it's more about electrifying and amplifying it. Suigetsu being made of water does make him more susceptible to lightning attacks.
It’s advantage is speed. You don’t need to clash when you can just outpace most water techniques.
true, speed can be a major advantage when dealing with water techniques.@@cloudcoastgaming
shouldn't lightning style be hot enough to instantly vaporize water style?
The closest thing to a fire style specialist is the 5 tails jinchuriki who covered his body with hot lava. Fire style is only good when its part of a kekkei genkai. Scorch style is also powerful and it uses fire style.
It's the 4 tails that use lava style and the 5 tails use Boil release but good point.
I feel that Kishimoto's pulse trembled in making people very burned, or he had no appreciation for the fire style, you just have to see what Amaterasu became. In addition, it is the most limited element, it can only be used by mouth.
Ye that’s the problem, fire need to be combined with other elements to get lava Release and Scorch Release. Meanwhile lightning and wind fucks everyone up on their own.
Very good video, dude.
Glad you liked it!
Fire by all animation logic can only look cool and can’t damage anything or anyone.
You know, they may have balanced lightning a bit more if they had a specific water jutsu that makes it resistant with a little more chakra. And you can still make Suigetsu weak to lightning because the water he turns into doesn't automatically have this property running.
Also, considering they have healing in this show, they really could have had people getting injured with fire more.
this is the only youtuber that can literally make me laugh at shit I would normally not have laughed at if someone else said it
Fire style is the definition of drip over skill
⚡️style is 100% the best. It augments attack, defence and speed alongside having an advantage over TWO of the 5 chakra natures in Earth and Water styles. Finally you can apply it to your kinjutsu the easiest too so all round its the peak style of the 5.
Also the supposed counter, Wind style, just happens to be the most rare elemental style and also wasn’t used a single time in the whole anime to counter Lightning
@@tupoibaran3706 Naruto used Rasen-shuriken to hit 3rd Raikage and it did nothing to him unfortunately
@@tonyinfinite5174 you are right, I forgot about that one. I also find It pretty stupid, but whatever.
The weakness is that it's expensive I guess.
One critique. Inferno style is sasuke's unique mangekyo ability. He can manipulate and control amaterasu. And amaterasu is a fire style technique.
I fw it and the summoning vid you should to a kekei genkai and gekei totas and shit
The thing with lightning vs earth in Naruto physics is that the lightning chakra disrupts the chakra holding the earth particles together thus making earth weak to lightning.
Kishimoto should have swapped lightning and earth in the element cycle, wind erodes rocks so air should be good against earth, earth cancels electricity so it should be good against lightning, and electricity passes wonderfully through water, so lightning should be good against water, as it already is
26:34 from te chart i think the lightning + fire would be something like "Plasma release" (could be cool)... and wind + lightning... maybe a "laser realease".
Fire style was supposed to be the most powerful, but it was always used to show how powerful the opponent is by having them shrug it off.
They never said something like that in the Magma or Anime, the closer thing said to that is Wind being the rarest Nature release in the leaf.
6:52 remembering here about your rewrite and what the fire mask did to Yamato......

you should've mentioned deidara when speaking about earth style. hes an earth style specialist and is on kisames level of usage with his element.
Yeah I think he forgot deidera is definitely an earth style specialist I’d also make an argument for Kakashi
He also forgot about Suigestu & Mizukage mei for water style users I’d say they are both water style specialist
That water style watergun is probs my fav water style jutsu. Mizukage literally made finger-guns into a real attack 😂 gengetsu was such an op/underrated character. Can’t imagine any non-uchiha beating him when he’s serious.
Fun thinking about tactics,
Even funnier thinking about fantasy tactics, even more in Naruto were they are so well laid out
I dont think fire style is "trash", i think in universe its problem is that is too unsofisticated and powerful, i feel like it was the first release that was weaponized because its the only element that cause damages by default, and for a bunch of times ninjas must relied just on it to cause damage, so a bunch of parallel more sophisticated tactices to counter it were developed, like taijutsu tactics, other release tactics
But i feel fire release it is still easier to learn, like easy to learn but difficult to master, so ninjas with affinity to fire will learn it faster and will already be dangerous, but everyone is learning tactics to deal with, so the fire users always need more complementary means, but they always have that easy tactical card on their hands, so in a fight release a bunch of fire and earn a free turn to anailyze the abilities of your enemy
the same thing with kunais, is like suppressive fire, you dont fire wanting to win the fight, you fire to suppress your oponent to act at will, its like a low cost measure to add pressure into the fight
we had something similar in history, in the second world war air bombing was the go one choice to cause damage into a region, so it make air defense technology research (radars, sonars, air space law making, air tactics, the laying of air bases) skyrockting making an air bombing attack something that developed nations dont really need to worry anymore, but undeveloped regions can be obliterated in a blink of an eye
we can say air bombing is a primitive uneffectivy strike means? it depends, how sophisticated is your air defense?
I agree that earth style is above fire style, but for a different reason than you pointed out. Earth style is versatile! Fire style is almost only used for offense. Earth style can be used for defense, offense, and even changing the environment. Fire style can change the environment through destruction, but that is limited. Earth style can create long lasting platforms, walls, and obstacles. The only non conventional use I can think of for fire style is to hide weapons and set up Sasuke s lightning jutsu. Besides that it is usually straightforward and one dimensional.
the ikkaku gets me every time
I've always wondered 🤔. If wind chakra turns a rasengan into a shurikin with cutting and piercing , how would it change and what properties would it have if applied with different chakra natures?
imagine a kisame and itachi filler where they hang out and kisame makes a hole fill up with water and itachi heats it up with fire style.Then kisame trolls him by putting sharks in the hot tub lol.
or when Itachi does a dozen of fried eggs for Sasuke because he wants the perfect fried egg for his dear little brother LUL (there's an ova i think already)
In a world where people can make nukes with their own hands, everyone wants that morning wood style.
Theoretically, Shisui was fire style specialist in the infinite tsukuyomi. But it was overshadowed by his powerful genjutsu.😮
28:12 When you say earth doesn't conduct electricity but the picture shows the opposite 😄
The problem with fire is it having no physical form, as in you cannot touch it, so the impact it has relied on an invisible factor of heat. As a result, it is easier for the writer to justify the target shrugging off fire attacks than other types.
On the other hand, as audiences you kinda expect wind, water, or earth to at least has some physical effects when they landed.
The only other non-physical element is lightning, but it is often associated with some degree of paralysis effects too instead of just raw, invisible damage, so some audiences might expect it to do something anyway.
The song at around 18:00 omg so many memories from roblox
You forgot about Ameyuri Ringo, and her powerful "Thunder Gate" jutsu ✨
Nice rankings. Just missed to mention the 4° mizukage mirror jutsu, no?
I think that the only person who was ever hurt by fire in the entire series, was like Sasuke in the first Boruto movie vs fused Momoshiki! 😂😂
rank all the nature transformations (including the combo ones like lava , particle style)
Probably one of the only mangas who gets fire right it's JJK for example every time Jogo hit someone with a fire technique they completely gets scar for life or burn into a crisp
A lil off topic I like all the natures equally but I only really fuck with 2 jutsu from each 1.
Lightning Style: Black Panther & Purple Lightning
Fire Style: Bomb Blast Dance & Majestic Destroyer Flame
Water Style: Water Dragon & Water Mirror
Earth Style: Dark Swamp & Mud Wall
Wind Style: Vacuum Sphere & Great Breach
Inferno Style or Blaze Release is a Kekkei Genkai, but it isn't a Kekkei Genkai like Nature Combination Kekkei Genkei. well, not two of the typical ones. if it's a combination of any two it's a combination of Fire and Yin release. probably same thing for Darui's Black Lightening. Lightening Release + Yin.
I love your "and nunber one is of course hikaku uchiha" jokes ahaha
The worst to me is earth style, its not flashy but it versatility cannot be denied, fire style is nothing but 100% offensive hence its used as a bulk attack tool, wind hits 3rd, not enough jutsu to rate it, we get 2 or 3 with filler in Naruto and shippuden. Water is second because it has a balance of attacks and defenses. Finally we get lightning ex machina. Attack 100 defense 75, versatility 75. The only lightning style that was ask was Jiriboshi (electric current) from a filler character. Theres a reason Kakashi and Sasuke throw chidori and raikiri like its going out of style.
My older brother and I used to say "no damage fireball jutsu" back when we watched the first 52 episodes almost 20 years agao
Lighting my fav tbh
Dygo did made the Fire Style more relevant on the Rewrite
There aren't any rank-A and S jutsu besides wind and lightning natures so that reflects some of the points mentioned. The best we see for all other natures is B with a couple unranked maybe being rank-A
offensive jutsu anyway
The way kashin koji uses firestyle is insane.
There is some Info that kurama is tied to the fire element. He breaths flame during the pain fight. That may be why fire doesn’t hurt him w Kyuubi cloak
In their first duel in VoTE, one tail cloak Naruto boils the water on the contact area. IIRC. My memory is hazy.
Personally I was a huge fan of the Water Element thanks to the Land of Waves arc
Fire is just the most countered style in the anime and manga, i also like to believe Tobirama used a wind infused water style jutsu to release Naruto from the tree i think, he used pressurized wanter to cut it.
Only cool usage of Fire was Shippuden movie 5's Blood Prison, the Fire Seals were awesome and creative, and definitely lethal
With you dissing fire style the whole vid, i noticed that the clounds on the akaski cloaks look like little mini fire styles to me
Does Kaguya use earth style in the other dimension to increase the weight of a planet and thereby increase its gravitational pull? Sort of the opposite of Uraka from My Hero Academia, which struck me more as an air element.
About water style you didn’t mention suigetsu who’s able to liquified is body wich is pretty op, and fight against hachibi for a short time
Actually i would argue that now after the boruto timeskip, wind style is the strongest because boruto has rasen uzuhiko which is easily the strongest jutsu in the entire series so far...
I believe in the advantage mechanics the olaces of lightning and earth should be swapped
Next make ranking of kkei genkai elements
I don't remember if he mentioned it because I don't think so (I watched the video last night) but during part 1 in the sasuke vs naruto fight, sasuke used the chidori multiple times.and I know that was manga canon.
"She solos tenten the strongest character in the multi verse" 💀💀💀💀💀💀
8:15 ah yes… Midtachi. Of course he’d be hit with fire.
😂😂😂
Wind element of freedom, circumventing and life
Water element of change, healing and life
Earth element of substance, steadiness and stability
Fire is the element of power, destruction and warmth
Lightning is the element of coldness,no emotions can be felt from it for it is the cold blooded fire.
Fire style has a lot of potential to be very strong. It just seems to never hit. and it's not like it's actually slow. It's just that characters seem to dodge just barely because they're expecting it.
Honestly, the issue is that most top tiers don't have fire affinity by chance.
It's a real shame. Cuz a fire stlye can come out just as fast as a wind or lightning style if used by an equal strength guy with the appropriate affinity.
I always liked Fire style, I wish they let it do something for once. I almost wonder if it has something to do with censorship.
Madara devastated an army with just 2 fire Jutsu. the first would have wrecked most of them but was stopped by an entire platoon of water jutsu users. but as it was expected be stopped, Madara used the resulting mist as cover for a great fireball spam. likely killing hundreds or even thousands.
Which was epic.
The reason why fire jutsu comes out the mouth is because when you blow the air that you shoot controls the fire and makes it stronger
Despite not having many fire style specialist, Konoha itself has fire as its main style. Sarutobi and Uchiha clans too.
The Fire and Lightning placements are pretty inarguable. Fire seems to be only good for burning things and distractions, but, to be honest, it isn't really that good at burning things as you've already noted.
Lightning breaks the element wheel, but even if it didn't, it has Lightning Armor which is unquestionably the strongest basic elemental technique, being one of the strongest attacks and definitely the strongest defense and utility.
The other three are pretty comparable. I think you rated Wind a little high. Excepting Temari blowing away kunai, it doesn't have much defensive utility. One could maybe argue that flight counts, but we only really see Temari fly with it and not very well which I think is a shame. Not having proper flight through Wind is a big missed opportunity. It is supposed to be really offensive, but we don't see it beat the armor of the element it is supposed to be good against.
Earth style has good defense, offense, and utility. The mass manipulation is crazy useful. Traveling underground is useful. One could argue that a lot of its defenses got shot right through, but Kakuzu's wasn't, and a lot of the others happened after all elemental usages except lightning completely broke down in the face of War Arc power scaling.
Water also has good utility, offense, and defense. The Mist technique is really handy and was probably underutilized late in the series. The Water Prison is a great capture technique. Water Wall techniques were used to defend against a variety, and the Water Jets used by the Frog Sages and the Second Hokage have really good pinpoint damage to pair with the wide area damage of some of the others.
If the chakra absorption that Kisame's jutsu do is actually Water style and not something unique to Kisame and his sword, than I think you have to give second place to Water.
It would be cool if they developed cloaks for all the releases as like a technique developed over 100s of years
Fire style and shrukens are really good diversions though. And that matter.
I do wish naruto learned a few more wind-style techniques like danzo had. I feel like they missed a good opportunity to give him some more jutsu like that during the time skip. That’s one thing I do like about boruto’s arsenal. (Can’t believe I’m saying that) boruto having gale palm, water release surging sea and lightning arrow. I always wanted naruto to get like air bullet or something.
0:56 fire style 12:36 earth style 15:24 water style 19:19 wind style 22:44 lightning style
Reasons to like Aavtar the last airbender, your attacks have weight to them! People get burned, crushed, frozen, and blown away! If a fireball is coming at you even as the main character you better block it and even in terms of Aang defending himself he gets overpowered plenty of times because FIRE IS HOT!!!
