sasuke ftw

I'm sorry but thats a weak reason..its not enough to keep his character in naruto. In any good series you need popular characters to be killed off, and you can see it coming depending on their role in the manga and whether or not their purpose has been served. Jiraiya was exactly the same..

Being there to teach sakura genjitsu is def not a reason to stay. I personally am bored of seeing them train. I'm sure many would agree we want to see them making their own plans/decisions as adults now..i dont want to watch them being taught or protected like children.

but, like i said, kakashi is a hero on his own. his purpose is not limited to teaching naruto, sakura or sasuke, its protecting konoha in general and fighting a stronger enemy.

sasuke ftw

Alot of the characters in naruto are hero's. Its not enough to keep him alive. And how can kakashi be there to help defeat a stronger enemy? He just got owned by pain.. he lasted what, a minute? naruto sasuke and sakura can hold their own alot better than kakashi can now. Dont you see my point? Its not that I hate kakashi and want him to go, I just think his time is up. Im surprised more people dont agree >.>

i dont kishimoto will cut him out of the manga yet.
naruto yet isnt the herotype that kakashi is

Scarecrow

it only seems he got owned but he was actually pretty close...

sakumo (kakashis dad): kakashi, u need to unlock the hidden potential, that way u will increase your chakra 10 times....
kakashi: ok

kakashi wakes up with the aura of white chakra around him...

im just kidding.

but u are discussing with a fanboy here.

kakashi doesent fight the same way naruto or sasuke do, he fights against the odds and comes up with more or less complex plans. that is why he will always be a challenge, and that is why he will have a good fight against guys that are on his lvl or stronger than him.

Once again i agree, except with the Sakura comment. She sucks big time and is no where near Kakashi's lvl. I know you like her but the manga speaks loud and clear and super strong ninja she is not.

Lets call her a really good nurse.

As for Kakashi, i like him as a character but as of now he has nothing else to add to the series. He was a mentor to Naruto, Sasuke and Sakura until they moved on to different masters. He helped Naruto complete a tech that even the 4th could not. He has done enough to prepare them for what is to come.

sakura still has room to grow, she needs to learn stuff from kakashi too

i am not a big fan of watching naruto and sasuke fight alone to the end of the series, other characters need room to show what they can do too.

kishi has really overpowered both naruto and sasuke, now its time to give other characters he developed room to shine as well.

if its just gonna be naruto and sasuke to the end, then kishi can kill kakashi, but that is not going to be the case.

I think Sakura will surpass Tsunade which means she will soon be on Kakashis level some way or another. Also she will be be a medical ninja surgeon and one of the best also, maybe she will even learn slug katas and become a Sage with her Homie Naruto. That would be NEATOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!
Yeah Will of the Fire Whoaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

There is no such thing as a slug sage. Its an unique ability to the sages of myobokuzan alone. also Sakura does not have the immense chakra reserves needed to attract NE so the Sages have no interest in her.

People need to understand Sakura's situation. She doesn't have a ridiculous amount of chakra like Naruto, and she doesn't have Sharingan like Sasuke. She ill never touch them in terms of power. Her chakra control is great for Med ninjutsu which requires a ton of precision. Thats the path she is walking on now and thats where she will remain.

I have to call into question Tsunade vs Kakashi in terms of power. Its highly unlikely that Tsunade is stronger than kakashi as he was before his unconfirmed death. He had a ton of jutsu, MK Sharingan and was a master strategist. Tsunade can Heal, summon that gimp slug and punch hard.
The manga supports Kakashi as very strong shinobi. Tsunade on the other hand, tough she is a med nin with out equal she sucks on combat.

First off you are right she does not have as much chakra as sasuke and naruto, but she is still on thier level thru medical ninjutsu and chakra control.
I never said Tsunade is better than kakashi but she is a more experienced ninja and a powerful med nin which lead her to be part of the legendary senin.
Her and kakashi are even because if that wasnt true than kakashi should be Hokage and not Tsunade. and Tsunades alot better and has to be better at taijutsu/hand combat because she needs her chakra for medical ninjutsu so that means she indeed is one of the best in konaha because of this reason.

Your argument is completly one sided.
If thats the criteria than Sakura is on par with naruto, Sasuke, kb..the list goes on since none of them can use med ninjutsu. The argument is in terms of power. Sakura is an average ninja when it comes to battle and an exceptional med nin because she learned from the best. As for tsunade being better than kakashi in taijutsu, that argument is ludicrous.

Tsunade's taijutsu is laughable. It consists of swinging wildly at her target hoping to land a hit.

As far as med nin go Tsunade is legendary and Sakura will be the best in the future. However when it comes to battle both Tsunade and Sakura are nothing special.

Just to bring up a point here:

Kakashi's "run out" of chakra before, or came really close in Kakashi gaiden. Cus he uses chidori and then completely blacks out and he's thinking that he's dead before he opens his eyes and sees Minato

Naruto2008

I'm not gonna lie, that is a pretty good point. lol.. His Sharingan especially his MS drains him incredibly. He has most likely passed out due to lack of chakra.

Ok, look. I've been yelled at more than once for continuously sayng that kakashi isn't dead, but i am pretty damn sure i'm right. The whole kakashi gaiden-passing-out-thing is great evidence, so thank you Kakashi_Rocks. Plus also, as i have mentioned numerous times, Kishi hasn't told us how Kakashi got his MS. Oh, and if Tobi really is Obito, and not Madara Uchiha (which personally i think obito is dead for good, but i'm just making a suggestion) then you would think kakashi would live long enough to at least find out, huh? I mean come on, people, you gotta have faith in kakashi. I should know, all my friends are kakashi haters. >_< but yeah. He's gonna make it through.
