Oh with that i agree, but for a very different reason. for a character said to be a God of Shinobi and someone supposed to surpass Hashirama, the amount of fighting we get out of him is downright pathetic. Like i said, hes the God of Shinobi but we don't even know his most powerful jutsu. That's what I feel, too. Personally, I don't care much about Hiruzen. I didn't give a damn about Tobirama, either. But that was before he proved his skills and cunning against Juubito (especially the part where he hits Juubito with his own TSB). Meanwhile all Hiruzen did was use a five-elemental attack against Guruguru Tobi. I understand that Edo Hiruzen was not even remotely close to Prime Hiruzen, but Kishi seriously trolled Hiruzen like he trolled Minato, Hanzo and Neji. Minato had so much hype, but he didn't live up to it satisfactorily. His performance in the 4th War was way better than Hiruzen, but still I and a lot of fans were disappointed with him. He saved the entire Shinobi Allied forces twice. Yet against Juubito his performance was poor; he looked like a bumbling idiot compared to Tobirama, who was keenly analysing Juubito. Worse, he lost the other half of Kurama to Black Zetsu. Kishi seriously trolled us hard with the 4th War. Neji died without showing anything significant, despite him being the "genius of the Hyuuga clan". And Hanzo committed seppuku after losing way too easily to Mifune. So much for the hype.
