I'm just wondering who do you think would win. A crazy evil sadistic Ninja trying to learn techniques for Immortality and is one of the Three Sennin and was able to beat the 3rd Hokage of Konoha or the also crazy evil sadistic half-demon who wants the Shikon no Tama so he can purge himself of his human beginnings and become a full fledge demon who can reincarnate himself?

WTF? :questioning:

i agree. WHAT?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!!?!?!?!? And I need you to ask one question at a time and in simplest form possible.

Everyone in the thread, you made no sense whatsoever. I'm confuse! :0_0:

I'm asking in a head to head battle who would win.....Orochimaru from Naruto or Naraku from InuYasha

Naraku wins, GGPO (Good game, peace out), Orochimaru. His miasma alone could kill him (maybe).

I don't mean to be immature, but I think Naraku can kill just about anyone; even Goku, Vegetta, Sesshoumaru, Kikyou, Inu-Yasha, Super Man, Magneto, Jesus, etc, etc...Think about it, no one person/being can kill him, he can't be rendered unconscious, his miasma can melt just about anything with EASE, he can send an army of powerful demons to protect or fight for him, and just when you think he's hurt or in danger, he's not! Someone can pound on him for days and he still won't die...He's unfair.

I'd say that Orochimaru would win. Well, first of all. Naraku's miasma isn't THAT strong even if you think about it. People who aren't normal just don't die that easily from it. I've watched both animes(and have gotten pretty far in them). I've watched the entire series of Inuyasha and read up to the latest chapter of Naruto(so I know what they've done before).

I'd still say that Orochimaru can beat the hell out of Naraku. He knows tons of jutsus(even ones that are forbidden and haven't been seen in the show/manga yet). He also has imortality(the same way that Naraku has it).Both Naraku and Orochimaru are shapeshifters. If you want to put Naraku's demons against Orochimaru, Orochimaru can summon his giant snake god and basically have them all eaten. But I think that Orochimaru has something above Naraku that basically is what puts Orochimaru over Naraku.

Hah, I don't like these tournament threads so I think I sound kind of like a repetitive dumb a** who's droning on. But, I think I've made my point(not really). Orochimaru'd probably win.

Naraku's Miasma never has got anyone, directly (except for Kikyou). However, the fumes from far away are very, very harmful. If it were to directly get anyone, their body probably would melt in seconds (he probably can make it stronger and stronger if he wants, too).

If a fight were THAT dangerous, most likely, he'd use an infinite number of demons and Offsprings to fight for him (he's never fought at his FULL potential, so who knows how powerful he truly is-- it's already been officially stated that he's the most powerful IY character). Plus, he's too skilled in sorcery, illusions, tricks, tricks and more tricks, traps and the works. However, his lack of fighting skills is a disadvantage, so maybe Orochimaru would beat the crap out of him if he were to get that close (I doubt it though, because Naraku always has 100 back-up plans and options even when there's only 20% chance that he'll be in danger). Oh, but even if Naraku did get beat up, he'd just regenerate and he wouldn't feel the pain...I've never heard of ANYONE who can't feel pain, at all (freaky).

Anyway, I agree with a lot of what you wrote, and no, you don't sound like a jerk or anything^^ These threads are kind of...You know. I don't really like them, either but, most of the other good threads are dead, so I'm desperate :blue20:

Bye.

You can't be serious, Goku or anyone from Dragonball Z can obliderate EVERY trace of Naraku. Plus Naraku is a coward who never fights.

What he said^

No, I am serious. DBZ characters can FEEL PAIN, and a big hole in their chest or stomach (Vegeta, anyone?) can seriously hurt or kill them, but neither of that has ever hurt Naraku. If Goku's head were to be chopped off, he'd die, obviously, and of course, Naraku wouldn't. Actually, I'm only talking about Naraku's FIRST form, I ain't getting started on his current/second form; and I forgot to mention his nearly unbreakable barrier. He's not a coward. I may sound as if I'm defending him, but stop believing you're little Kagome and Inu Yasha; they know nothing about him and they often accuse him of doing things he didn't do. By the way, Rumiko Takahashi OFFICIALLY said that Naraku is more brave than most of the cast; he just doesn't feel that the tasks are hard enough, so he has no need to show up .

And just because a lot of you guys hate him, doesn't mean that he'd lose. Let's stay on topic, shall we? Thena again, this topic sucks, anyway.

I wish Naraku would die or get beat up, but it ain't gonna happen anytime soon.

Naraku would get kill by ANY DBZ character. All they have to do is blow up Earth.

that's true....personally I think Orouchimaru

Naraku will win.

Then he'd just regenerate somewhere in space...He said that his Castle is airless and the air is so bad, that a human never could live in there, so I'm almost certain that he can breathe in space, as well (it might be a little hard on him, but who knows?).

This is off-topic...If we're so curious, let's make a DBZ Cast Vs. Naraku thread, and we'll see what everyone else thinks :pinkusagi08:

Now you're just being silly. Did you hear when I said EVERY TRACE, the only time he regenerates is when parts of his body remain intact. A basic Kamehameha would destroy every and all parts of his body.

Naraku's barriers do not stand against any attack from DBZ, the characters are strong enough to destroy planets and galaxies. How the hell do you think Naraku can survive that.

That's because the get hit by attacks that would normally shatter planets.

And if Naraku gets hit by the Kamehameha, he'd die. But Goku won't. It's about endurance. Goku can take alot more that Naraku can. Naraku just regenerates, but his body is destroyed easily.

Being brave won't help you if you rush at a Kamehameha and get killed.

Before I can continue with this discussion, can someone please tell me WHY good old, pure, sweet Goku would destroy the ENTIRE earth just to kill one Half Demon (if it would, indeed kill him, that is)? Goku and the others didn't do that to Majin Buu, and Buu actually was a threat to the WORLD. Naraku never kills innocent people without a so-called reason and he is not a threat to the world (wouldn't he have caused more trouble to millions of people instead of 100s or less?), so any good DBZ character would NEVER be selfish enough to blow up the world...I've been watching DBZ for a lot longer than Inuyasha, so I think I would know them. Besides that, we're supposed to be talking about FIGHTING, not blowing up planets :yellowjelly:

:blue20: See guys? I told you that we should make a seperate thread for this, since people keep talking about it...It's only a friendly, silly discussion to me...Nothing serious or competitive.

Oh yes, I noted his bravery because a guy said that Naraku is too cowardly to fight (this was back when we were on topic^_^).

you gotta point there

You are missing the entire point completely.

we're going by feats. we need to list out what they can do and who they fought against.

I think so too :x_3: or well im shocked actually

Orochimaru owns Naraku hands down, he has a greater range of techniques, not to mention he's hard to kill.

Okaaay......

I hope you have seen all 167 episodes of Inu-Yasha and the current Manga Chapters. I also hope that Orochimaru can endure as much as a DBZ character; can't feel pain; be sliced and diced without even caring and able to regenerate every piece of his body, instantly; erect powerful barriers; surround the entire area with very toxic, poisonus gas which can melt the flesh off humans and animals with EASE; use unlimited power without getting tired at all; fly; take the form of anyone or anything (it can be used as an escape trick, too); ERASE the MEMORY or TAKE CONTROL of ANYONE by merely touching them(if he wanted to be a jerk, or got desperate) lift over a ton of anything; deflect/reflect and send engergy RIGHT BACK at the person who discharged it; send an infinite number of demons (or something) after the enemy and more :blue20:

This is starting to get pointless(or already is)... I've seen all the episodes of Inuyasha and read up to the most recent chapter of Naruto. I'd still say that Orochimaru can and will most likely win.

What you say about Naraku being able to take over someone by just touching them isn't true for all. It depends on how strong the person is(well the person that he's taking over). It wouldn't be easy to take over Orochimaru's body anyway(because of how strong he is).

Naraku obviously has his heart in that baby of his, but let's say that the baby was put in the same place area that was close to Orochimaru. Orochimaru is smart enough to figure out that after a few attempts to kill Naraku, that he could do something with the baby.

Orochimaru's abilities have not all yet been revealed(since it's not really over). Orochimaru can actually resurrect the dead(well, not really they're just soulless), probably seal souls and make himself immortal(he's partially done that already).

I'd still say it, Orochimaru can and would beat Naraku in a fight.

I agree, this thread is pretty much pointless-- in fact, all Naraku Vs. -- threads are pointless because like I've always thought/known, Naraku will automatically get the least votes or bets because he is everyone's most hated Anime Villain that did something to everyone's favorite characters or because the other person is "cooler". So, no matter how powerful he is or gets, most people still won't reconize that because they hate him or prefer the other character. Anyone can deny it, but I know that it's at least 75% true after observing a lot of "which InuYasha character is the most powerful/skilled/strong/etc" threads, debates and such. Other than that, most strong InuYasha characters don't believe in his power, and that's why he's still alive to this day. Even when he is pit against Kikyou, fans give her more votes because she THINKS she can kill Naraku, and because InuYasha fans don't hate her as much as they hate him. The sad part is, in actuality, Naraku has came inches away from killing Kikyou TWICE, and Kikyou has never even injured him ONCE. I know that this is never going to change as long as Fangirls,Fanboys, and Haters exist, so I will withdraw from these silly threads because again, they're pointless. However, I will say a few more things, and I don't care if they're challenged nor ignored:

What I listed about Naraku's abilities were only examples of what he can do. He is capable of doing so much more than what I listed and the funny part is, Naraku doesn't really use most of his power or strength; he relies almost solely on knowledge and intelligence most of the time. That's sad when someone is so powerful, they don't even need to show nor use their powers. Naraku sometimes says that his seemingly most trickiest, smartest and dirtiest tricks/traps are CHILD'S PLAY or "SMALL." There are 4 ways how Naraku can take over someone's body:

1) Mind control: He can control minds like how he controls Kohaku and tried to control Kagome/Kikyou (in the Anime only); he can erase their memories by touching (who knows, for a more powerful person, he may need to increase the strength of his mind control power)

2) Control of all parts of his flash: When his body is cut or blown apart, Naraku can control his pieces of flesh to IMMEDIATELY grasp and cover his opponent (which would've killed Sesshoumaru if only InuYasha hadn't used the Wind Scar on Naraku and his flesh surrounding Sesshoumaru's body).

3) Absorption: In early Febuary's Manga Chapter of InuYasha (Chapter 443) Naraku was absorbed by the powerful Demon Mouryoumaru, who's strength seemed equal or greater than Naraku's own, since Naraku helped build him and he gained attacks from InuYasha and such. Naraku was presumed dead until a couple of weeks ago, then somehow, he "ate up" or took over Mouryoumaru FROM THE INSIDE (Mouryoumaru is about 100 feet tall) and ABSORBED HIM. Now, not only is Moryoumaru dead, but Naraku also has gained the nearly complete Shikon Jewel (only Kouga and Kohaku's remain) and new powers from that ultra dangerous Demon Tree which he absorbed hours before he faced Mouryoumaru; so who knows what kind of great power Naraku will be getting in the next few weeks.

4) General Absorption: Naraku is known for sucking Demons or other powerful creatures into his body with ease.

It's true, Naraku's heart is the Baby, but why on earth would Naraku be dumb enough to keep his heart around somewhere dangerous? We forget that his creator offically stated that other than Miroku and Kikyou, Naraku has the highest level of knowledge and intelligence in the series; so that's why we often see him doing things so smart, it's almost as if he's psychic most of the time. Especially when it comes to things as important as his heart or jewel, Naraku ALWAYS plans ahead and adds extra insurance. Remember episode 165? Naraku PRETENDED to attack Kikyou so InuYasha and his friends would show up and fight him. It turned out that he was only buying time so Kanna could take his heart out of harms way (Mouryoumaru was the "bodyguard" back then, and so he was added insurance.) So yes, Naraku isn't dumb enough to do that-- heck, if he had to, he'd probably make his heart take the form of something like a stone or something just so no one can hurt it. But, if the baby/heart DID show up close to Naraku's enemy, he would just erect a powerful barrier around it, like the one he had around his Castle (which made it invisable).

I agree and read about Orochimaru; he is indeed very powerful, but I still don't get it why people are so confident that he CAN beat Naraku, yet he doesnt seem to have ANY ablity that matches all of Naraku's. He has SIMILAR abilitites, but I still have yet to hear about him not feeling pain, erecting barriers, being blown to dust, then surviving,controlling people, setting great traps, being SO SMART or POWERFUL, that he can wipe out entire cities without having to lift a finger of his own, possessing SUPER intelligence, covering 100s of square feet with poisonous gas or liquid (a deadly, vaporizing ocean) and much more... Maybe if they fought for fun (or at least fun to Naraku), Orochi might win (if a win is considered suceeding in ripping Naraku's body apart), I agree; but I don't think he can kill Naraku, since at least 10 strong characters have been after Naraku for over 7 seasons and 8 years (After the Anime ended, Inuyasha has had about 100 Manga chapters, which are equal to more than an entire Anime season or 30+ episodes) and he STILL isn't dead because he relies on 75% brains and 25% strength. Also, all of Naraku's abilities are not known, either because he doesn't get a lot of "screen time" and he never gets desperate to the point where he needs to use everything he has.

But whatever...Fans can think whatever. I'm tired of sounding like I'm defending Naraku all the time because I like being FAIR and I look at ALL directions and sitiuations.

I'm done, bye...

*Sigh*

Orochimaru can defeat an entire country by himself. During the Grass Cuntry arc, he displayed numerous inhuman ablities. He can shed his skin to heal any and all injuries, regurgitate a single or a swarm of snakes. Or make a clone of himself which is also made from snakes.

All Naraku does is try to control people, make incarnations, erect barriers and absorb other powers. He never fights unless forced to, and Orochimaru is a lot more cunning and ruthless than Naraku.

He can summon snakes of various sizes, (the biggest being Manda). He could also just plant a Cursed Seal on Naraku. If he chose to do so, Orochimaru overall has much better combat skills.
