Apart from character designs and animation,Narutopeaks in terms of its plot. The growth and development of characters hook the readers and viewers onto the series. But most importantly, its complexities make it rather familiar.
Undoubtedly, Masashi Kishimoto does a great deal with his characters in terms of their development and progress in the series. In his writing of Sasuke, however, he underlined a feat that most fans often overlook.
From his proficiency in Genjutsu to his mastery of Chidori, the Uchiha prodigy is unparalleled in yet another feat. Amidst his genius, fans recently pointed to his underappreciated milestone in the series.
Interestingly, it also ties well with Zoro’s accomplishment inOne Piece. Rather, it eclipses the moss-haired swordsman’s victory against Mihawk’s baboons. And though it may seem a bit of a stretch, the Pirate Hunter is second to none.
Sasuke’s underappreciated feat in theNarutoseries
Apart from being one of the coolest characters in Masashi Kishimoto’s seriesSasuke Uchihais a skilled shinobi. Rather, he is a prodigy who achieved numerous feats as a kid. Along with his brother, he is one of the very few prodigies from the Uchiha clan.
From mastering the Sharingan to learning his clan’s fireball jutsu, he is truly impeccable. This also applies to his mastery of nature release and chakra control. But that is not all considering his consequent growth and development inNaruto.
To begin with, he has fluencyin both lightningas well as fire release. This is evident in his fire-release techniques. But most of all, he is the only person besides Kakashi to use Chidori effortlessly. This was heightened with his Curse Mark transformation.
In retrospect, however, there is an ability so goated yet underrated which is often looked down upon. Amidst his genius feats, most fans overlook his finesse in Taijutsu which was revealed during his fight in Chunin Exams.

Recently, Redditorsacknowledgedhis mastery of Taijutsu in 9-days which is a feat in itself.
Above all, though, he may have surpassed his predecessor Madara in every aspect. From his Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan to Kirin, his feats are unparalleled considering his intellect and genius.
Despite his shortcomings, he lived up to his status of a prodigy through his training and expertise. This could even overshadow the moss-haired swordsman and his duel with the Babboons in theOne Pieceseries.
Zoro is second to none with his victory inOne Piece
Roronoa Zorois one of the most badass characters in the One Piece series. His flashy green hair and his sword-fighting sets him apart from other characters. And whileMihawk’sstyle represents elegance and precision, the mosshead is downright devilish.
Interestingly, he often refers to himself as a demon, considering his intensity in battles. Rightly so, he incapacitates his foes through his signature three-sword style. This, however, was an arduous task against the humandrills.
In Post-War Saga Arc, he encounters a bunch of baboons, also known as, humandrills except they’re no ordinary apes. This is especially true for their mimicking abilities and menacing nature. After a long arduous fight, however, he incapacitated the creatures.
Though this has been a running gag within the fandom with his battling apes, a victory is a victory nonetheless. He managed topass Mihawk’s testwith flying colors through his perseverance and relentlessness.
