For those of you don't understand, this is simply an exaggeration of the Sharingan's ability to predict movements. Another reason why none of this should be considered anime material...--Cerez365™ 17:52, March 2, 2012 (UTC)

That's not how Sharingan predicts moves.Patsoumas1995 (talk) 18:01, March 2, 2012 (UTC)


 * And why is Madara Uchiha listed as a user only in the anime, when it's a game technique ? Is this even a valid technique ? --speysider (talk) 18:02, March 2, 2012 (UTC)

"none of this should be considered anime material" It's your personal opinion, everything has already been decided with the community as you know here -> Talk:Naruto_Shippūden:_Ultimate_Ninja_Storm_Generations, a debate that has lasted long enough already.

"this is simply an exaggeration of the Sharingan's ability to predict movements." It is clearly show that the EMS is used before this technique, the symbol in Madara's eye turning with a particular sound, something not necessary for reading moves as seen with Sasuke﻿ vs Naruto in the 1st part.

How about adding in trivia that this may not be a technique? Then both sides wil be happy I think.Patsoumas1995 (talk) 18:12, March 2, 2012 (UTC)

I'm guessing the way it seemed like was something like this (I don't watch the anime) but I'm doubting he has the ability to change the past. Also, can we change some of those pics used as it seems like he blocked it first and then just moved later. Joshbl56 18:13, March 2, 2012 (UTC)


 * Because it is a technique, for the reasons given above. It just seems bothers some people because it seems too strong or something like this.


 * "I'm guessing the way it seemed like was something like this", not really, the time and the sound are backward, here the link of the battle, between 3:14 and 3:28 for the technique -> Light-Revan (talk) 18:17, March 2, 2012 (UTC)


 * So... It seems like his eyes let him see through the dust and see senju but I kind of lost track from there. The root threw a shuriken, he blocked it but then it reversed and the dust cleared.... Yeah, I'm out on this one. Good luck with finding the answer. Joshbl56  18:36, March 2, 2012 (UTC)

Please to excuse me... So because he's using the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, he's lost the ability to use any of the Sharingan abilities? It's not an entirely different dojutsu it's just a new form.--Cerez365™ 18:50, March 2, 2012 (UTC)


 * "It's not an entirely different dojutsu it's just a new form" It's an entirely different technique. Madara doesn't predict anything, the time and the sound are clearly backward when he used it. The symbol in Madara's eye turns and a particular sound is played. Also, like Joshbl56 said, the dust is here before and not after the technique, seems to affect only living beings and techniques, but not the natural environment. 82.234.21.94 (talk) 19:05, March 2, 2012 (UTC)

No problem Cerez. If it was something like predicting movement, the symbol in Madara's eye would not turn, the particular sound would not play, and the time and the sound would not be backwards. And, as mentioned by Joshbl56 and the anon, the dust would be here before and after. Light-Revan (talk) 19:13, March 2, 2012 (UTC)

I would like to point out that in many anime sequences of that video game, several liberties were taken. See Jiraiya's tale for example. I agree that this seems like an exaggeration of the Sharingan's predictive ability. A poor stylistic choice by the animators. I'm not denying the possibility that such an ability can exist in the Naruto world, but between that and an animator's poor judgement, I think poor judgement is infinitely more likely.

In reply to your comments at my talk page, Light-Revan. You have a problem with "seem"? Ok, then I change my statement to "This is an exaggeration of the Sharingan's predictive ability". On them taking liberties with the scene. It is one thing to create something completely different and disconnected from the manga canon to allow the gap between manga and anime to grow. It is a completely different one to add or change something from the manga canon, this wasn't a small change like the scene of Tobi leaving to Amegakure in this week's episode that has no impact or weight on the plot, it only adds a layer, its potential to be against anything shown in the manga is minimal. Zero-Tails is a poor argument because the movies always have a plot that has nothing to do with the manga's plot. They always deal with things that only exist in the movies. On the prediction stuff: I ask you the same about the shuriken. It time was turned back, wouldn't Madara simply know it even better, and block it in a way he's not throw back by the impact, or maybe dodge it entirely? Isn't it less convoluted for Hashirama to have simply changed his mind in a split-second about how to attack Madara, after making an initial movement that Madara could use his Sharingan to predict following attacks? Or if you want something more complex, for Hashirama to anticipate Madara would use the Sharingan to predict his attack, and feint a movement that would give him a "false prediction" and try catching him off-guard? The Sharigan doesn't predict things simply just by "muscle tension", it does so by detecting the details of the movement, of what comes before the movement. Seeing a "flexing branch" could give him an equally good idea on how it would swing or move. Even the basic Sharingan spin sometimes when it does something, for example, casting genjutsu. MS on the other hand, the designs were only ever seen moving either when it's changing from the basic tomoe to it, they were never seen spinning when a technique is activated. At most, we see it dilating from the centre, as if "opening" or "zooming in/out", but never spinning. Sounds when there's a zooming in on a Shanringan is extremely common, usually done for dramatic effect, as it was done in this case. The sound of the clash between the gunbai and the shuriken could just as easily be there and be "rewound" for stylistic reasons, and the music did not play backwards. And even if it did, it could have been for the same stylistic reasons. Dust is there in both cases. When Hashirama uses the branches to attack with the swords, the dust is there, it simply clears faster because this is now "real time" instead of "Sharingan fast-tracking perception time". The dust is not a good argument because it changes direction when it shouldn't. When the dust cloud first comes from Kurama's attack it comes from Madara's right side, Kurama being to his right. When Hashirama has the branches use the swords, the dust cloud is coming from Madara's left side, as if Kurama were to his left, as if he and Hashirama had exchanged positions.
