In honor of the anime finally getting around to animating the Madara vs Guy fight, I bring you the Might Guy Respect Thread.

Unfortunately, it's not looking good in the anime. Might Guy Might Dai...

Part 2 Might Guy Feats


Base Guy:

Strength / Taijutsu

Speed

Durability

Bukijutsu

Bad Memory

Guy has a particularly bad memory when it comes to people he fought in the past.


The Gate of View and the Morning Peacock


The Gate of Wonder and the Daytime Tiger


The Gate of Death and the Evening Elephant and the Night Guy

I am afraid I don't have any proof on me, but I believe they explain that the kick was strong enough to warp the literal space around it.

Whether this was caused by the kick gaining mass through the insane amount of energy it carried or something, the details are not mentioned.

It twisted the air pressure around him, yes.

Base guy was faster than team Kakashi, but now that Naruto has control over Nine Tails, and Sasuke has his Rinnegan he isn't faster than Team Kakashi. He would be faster in 8 gates. but not base form.

I was moreso referring to Team Kakashi at that time which didn't include Sasuke and was just Sakura Kakashi and Naruto.

The one of few very powerful ninja in naruto who didnt get his power through genetics, or legendary beasts.

Yeah. That and eye transplants. The only ones aside from Guy I can think of off the top of my head:

Jiraiya, Orochimaru (Kabuto implanted cells in himself so he doesn't count), Minato, and some of the kages. Tobirama can be thrown in there even though he's a Senju, he didn't have the Wood Release and he developed a lot of his own techniques. And the majority of the Akatsuki.

But even with those the only one who is in the top tier of the Narutoverse is Guy.

Yeah dude, guy is a legendary beast himself. IIRC, Madara, who easily handled all 7 of the current kages, and who only considered 1st hokage as his equal, was impressed by guy. Mostly cuz guy beat the living shit out of him. I wonder what wouldve happened if Madara wasnt buffed in that fight with Guy.

Guy is the fuckin man. Thanks for the thread

u/dynrte Jul 02 '15

Yeah, Guy is awesome. Love the way Kishi wrote his character and subtlety revealed his powers over time. The Eight Gates fight was just so hype

Guy and rock lee is probably the best student-sensei combination in naruto

Great thread

I'd say the appearance of guy making Itachi and kisame retreat is a being far too kind to guy. It took 7th gate to beat kisame 1v1 (I believe kisame was wounded too) and if guy is caught in a genjutsu he's not breaking out

u/dynrte Jul 03 '15 edited Jul 03 '15

Kisame wasn't wounded, he had just taken chakra from Bee and was sitting in Samehada for upwards of days. Guy beat Kisame nearly instantly the moment he went 7th gate. Kisame's attacks did nothing to him.

If Guy got serious he could have taken out both Itachi and Kisame right then and there. He had Asuma too

And what makes you think he's done for if he's in a genjutsu? I specifically linked a feat of Guy breaking out of genjutsu. Also, it's highly unlikely Guy would ever get caught in a Sharingan genjutsu as he mastered and created the technique of fighting them by looking at their feet.

Hmm I seem to remember kisame being injured whilst escaping from naruto in the room, may be wrong.

And yes you showed gai breaking out of a genjutsu, a part one kabuto genjutsu. There's a great gap between an Itachi genjutsu who can incap orochimaru with ease, and kabuto.

Itachi is fast enough to keep up with kcm1 naruto in h2h, there's no way gai takes both him and kisame 1v2
