    If you watch the fights you'll see that there are numerous fighting styles and a lot of versatility in Avatar.

    Toph is a prime example. Sandbenders use a whole different set of techniques for different purposes, and there's plantbending, metalbending, lightningbending, bloodbending, and tons of fighting styles for each.

    They get rarely used though.

    Same move over and over again gets repetitive. Shadow Clone Jutsu ring a bell.

    Ah point taken. But so does using the same element over and over.

    You guys are really repetive you talk about Naruto being repetive then you are surely mistaken none of you watch Naruto to know that or the manga for that matter. You guys are saying the same things but resiting it again, thats pathetic. Naruto is made up of original villains maybe a few have charcteristics for another show. The villains are unique rather than the taking over earth thing.

    Right, what's so unique about Naruto's villains?

    Well they have a cool design and nice plan and plot. Plus they have their own charctersitics and own special attacks nothing you guys would know since this show marely has any attacks besides's the element bending.

    If you're going to say that "the only attacks in Avatar are bending" (which they're not, swordsguys have kicked serious bendeer ***) then I can say "the only attacls in Naruto are jutsu". Bending is extremely versatile and not only used for fighting. Just because there's only four materials to use (five I guess, what with Toph's metalbending) doesn't mean there's not tactics and special techniques and stuff.

    Also, Avatar characters can come up with something new if they're good enough with the basic understanding and technique. It's not memorizing moves and then perfecting them, it's perfecting the bending as a whole and utilizing the full versatility of their powers.

    There have been Swordsmen and other fighting techniques in Naruto as well. But anyways Im not done yet I have to leave you guys may have won the battle but not the war! Thats also because all these Avatar fans are crawling in and stuff. I'll come back in 2 hours, but we manged to do a good job of holding you guys off. With just 4 people.


    Yeah, Because crying like a ***** in the shower is toally an awesome

    Meh.

    Ya but every1 except the Avatar can only bend 1 element. Also the attacks in Naruto are way more diverse than Avatar attacks.

    One element, thousands of possibilities. Airbending can be used to keep your opponent away, blow stuff at them, blow them into something, blow them off of something, move faster, fly, acrobatics, etc, and that's an extremely broad way of putting it. Waterbenders can freeze water, therefore can trap their opponents, can use quick strikes like the water whip, cause a huge tidal wave to wash the opponent away and smash them into the ground, or even bloodbend them to your will. I think you get the idea.

    Don't confuse Nick's stupidity with the show.

    Then don't confuse fillers with the actual Naruto.

    Completely different. If Cartoon Network did some screwy censorship or poor marketing or did what they did with Avatar, I'd be like "Aww, sorry " We accept fillers are part of our show, why can't you accept yours?

    Fillers in Naruto don't count because they're not from the manga. If it's not from the manga, it doesn't count.

    This topic is about the shows if I remember correctly. Not the manga.

    There basicaly the same thing, are you mad because avatar doesnt have one.

    They're not the same thing, you just said the anime has 160 episodes of filler And in fact I'm EXTREMELY EXTREMELY happy Avatar doesn't have a manga, because this way WE don't have to sit through filler.

    85 episode's and that was to get ready for Naruto shippuden. Avatar does have fillers it doesnt have as much becuase it had no time to waste because it's such as short show.


    So you admit Naruto wastes time.
    No it doesn't, DBZ wastes time.
    DBZ is allot more interesting then both Naruto and Avatar, so whatchu talkin bout?

    You wish. DBZ is a has-been. Besides, Naruto is, in a way, based loosely off of DBZ itself.
    Loosely? DBZ alone is the only reason why crappy animes like Naruto are made, not to say DBZ is crappy though, just all these cliche Shounen that they keep coming out with

    You don't know what you're talking about.

    DBZ had no real story. Just a bunch of people threatening to blow up the earth.
    Okay, and Naruto has a bunch of 12 year old ninjas, dressed in bright colors, preaching about the Will of Fire fighting with gardening knives? Come on, Naruto sucks. Fake kid ninjas, fighting crappy liche villains in a Candyland type of world

    Congratulations, Im an S-class retard.

    You better go to Iraq or Burma and witness what you refer to as Candyland.


    OMG...you did not just compare a cartoon with the real life sh*t storm that is Iraq.
    He called himself a S-class retard There's nothing more you can do, other then acknowledge it
    Im estupid
    Fixed.

    Also you're the moron, they are 12.

    Only in part 1, dummy. In part 2, they are 15. Either you're still in your mother's womb and found some way to access the internet or you're horrible at math.
    Okay,so now they're 9th graders, lol, 9th grade "ninjas", dressed in orange jump suits fighting evil....its still pretty much the same crappy show, only Naruto is going threw puberty

    Well, this was fun to lurk in-
    but, it suddenly got a bit boring for me. Like I said, I really can't counter much except defend the slander people think of Avatar (most of which being completely untrue), as I haven't fully watched Naruto nor do I expect to.

    So, I'm pretty much useless to the fight. 0.o

    Bye guys. Wonder how long until this is trashed...

    Ozai has the ability to generate a constant stream of near white lightning.

    Azula can bend blue fire that possesses extreme concusive force.

    Zuko utilizes swords to cut through anything with fire (Or without them)

    Ty Lee uses natural agility to dodge attacks and the uses pressure points.

    Sokka uses a boomerang to kill a guy who could make explosions using his brain.

    There's a guy who can make explosions with his brain.

    Jet uses his hookswords.

    Mai uses her daggers.

    Zuko also uses stealth.

    Iroh breathes fire and redirects lightning (As does Zuko)

    Aang uses airbending.
