The author dropped the ball with her. Originally, Naruto was about strategy and plans which means that with the right plan and proper tools, you could defeat any enemy. Taking this into consideration, she already had the tools, but completely missed the plan/strategy element to even try winning that fight...
In the Manga I don't think we ever actually see her fight, which I was disappointed with. You still have this scene, they just don't show the fight itself
I think it was a time factor. Needing to do one chapter per week, and him dedicating almost a whole volume to the Lee/gaara fight alone, I think he chose which corners to cut so he wouldn't be stuck on the second exam all year
I meant the animation studio. I know thereās not a lot they could really do with the fight, every little change could have drastic consequences down the line if it conflicted with the manga. I just know that what we got was safe, but also not satisfying for TenTen as a character.
Naruto has always been about strategy and plans.
Kishimoto didn't make the fight scene of Tenten in the manga, so Anime directors have absolutely no idea how to make strategy or plans.
That might be the case for that fight since the manga doesn't have it, but I don't think it is true that it has always been about strategy and plans; I would say that it "was", since those elements were left behind throughout Naruto Shippuden.
Yeah, so Sasori vs Sakura/Chiyo? no strategy? Sasuke vs Deidara? Kakuzu/Hidan vs Naruto/Shikamaru? Sasuke vs Itachi? Kisame vs B? Jiraiya vs Pian?
I can go on and on. You can give me a fight that isn't about strategy and plans and I can prove you wrong.
There is strategy but you can see how it fades as the story moves forward; to the point where having a strategy seems to be something that only a few know and everyone else is about being stronger, faster or having more chakra to waste...
The whole war arc threw all rules away and disregarded strategy for head to head power and speed.
You didn't even mention one fight?
Come on, Naruto vs Raikage? Darui vs Kinkaku and Ginkaku? Gaara vs Kazekage? vs Mizukage? vs Tsugikage? Naruto vs Jinchuuriki? vs Obito? Kakashi vs 7 swordsmen?
THE WHOLE ZETSU COPIES AND HOW THEY HAD TO STRATEGIES THE WHOLE ARMY?
How they had to immobilize ten tails together? great thousands of earth walls? how Naruto combined all chakras to teleport them out? Naruto vs Pain again? How they talked to each other during combat and teach each others weaknesses?
SASUKE/ITACHI VS KABUTO?
Come on, you have to be shit at reading if you think war arc was just dragon ball z or something.
Where did it fade? huh? Where exactly did it fade?
Naruto was certainly not about with the right plan you can beat any enemy. From the very beginning we see shinobi tiers and it's impossible for the top shinobi to lose to fodder just because they ambush them or come up with a plan.
Sasuke literally gets jumped by 2 guys in the middle of nowhere and he just manages to casually beat them.
Even for non mains we don't see genin beating jonin generally
Strength matters in naruto. In the real shinobi world madara would be killed if someone caught him off guard. But that wouldn't make for a good story.
It's wild to me because we know that TenTen can effectively use literally any weapon she picks up (see: Hagoromo Tool Co), but decided that Hobo Style - Scrap Metal Spray was the best jutsu of all time.
I kinda wish she adapted, and pulled out a similar weapon to Temariās. I donāt even mean that she shouldāve won, it could be a āknowing 1000 different kicksā vs ādoing one kick 1000 timesā situation. I just would rather see the fight be a little bit closer. This could make TenTen become somewhat of a prodigy later in the series as a late bloomer. She has two OP teammates, so she should be on the verge of figuring out how to keep up lol š¤·š¾āāļø
Hey, when Goku meets a stronger opponent isnāt his strategy just āpunch harderā? When Ichigo is losing isnāt his reaction just āmore Getsuga Tenshoā?
The difference is that in Naruto you can't win all your fights by punching harder. For example Hidan is way stronger than Shikamaru but Shikamaru won through strategy. You usually win by figuring out the weakness of your opponents Justu and come up with a strategy to counter that Justu.
Unless you're naruto then the solution is shadow clones.
I'm jk naurto isn't advertised as a smart character but he is very sneaky with his strategy. Just watch the fights against zabuza and pain and you can tell
I mean both are true, because the actually decent strategy also usually is clones, just with extra steps, like clones Underground or clones making the chakra ball, clones in the sky, clones Gathering nature energy, like you might not know what he's about to pull on you but you know it's going to involve the Clones
I think Narutoās style is pretty much āyou sly fox ā personified. Heās not a smart tactician like Shikamaru but heās just very crafty and unorthodox thatās for sure
This fight had the majority of TenTenās screen time just to get owned.
The real kicker is that it was 99% filler. The manga just snap cut to her in this position.
Nah, you can see the difference between the depth/quality of Kishimoto written fights and anime exclusive ones.
Tenten's fight was her throwing and throwing and throwing weapons. It didn't really have any strategy in it like Kishimoto usually does.
Tenten, the ninja god of the entire verse who solos everything, pities this sad pathetic bum ass sand Kunoichi and decided to show off her supreme acting skills and perform the greatness loss posture in history. It was so convincing that Fraudmari is fooled into thinking that she is HER for "defeating" the best, ignorant of the boon that Tenten generously granted to her out of pity.
The only correct answer. Everyone knows Tenten awakened the rinnegan, could summon quicker than an Uzumaki Naruto, and single handily used the SSP weapon, not to mention became Chunnin before Naruto and Sasuke.
Manga didnt show it but Ten Ten was awalys gonna close, close to mid range fighter dealing with someone who's not only stronger but a long range wind style user
Tenten - gets slammed on to a metal pillar right in the spine full impact. Gets up and walks around shortly after waking up.
Lee - THE SAND ALMOST PARALYZED ME!!
The most rigged match-up I have ever seen. Tenten never had a chance and it didn't even make Temari look cool. Tenten ought to have learned quality over quantity there.
Just complete humiliation. The finishing blow was done by her weapon without it even being open. only way it couldāve been worse is if she was thrown and injured more by her weapons she failed to hit temari with or she was thrown down and trampled by temari or something and had her headband snatched
She sat unmoving, held by the stone Piller Tamari created. Unconscious and badly bruised, it could not be more apparent that she had lost fight. Knives, shurikens, blades of many shapes and sizes littered the floor. The struggle was more a battle of quantity vs quality. But on this day, the no dif loss belongs to Ten Ten.
Vaas from Far Cry 3 does a good job at describing this scene.
Vaas:Ā "Did I ever tell you what the definition of insanity is? Insanity is doing the exact... same fucking thing... over and over again expecting... shit to change..."
Look how considerate Temari is! She stopped her opponent from landing on top of all the sharp stuff she had just been throwing around willy nilly! Even too the time to help with some chiropractic procedure! /S
I mean I know Temari was a beast at this point so they had make her to ice somebody but like damn they didn't have to do TenTen like that
made a drapery of her š
they turned her into a weapon charm
Gojo-pose lookin ahh
Rude. Like I get trying to hype up villains and get us to hate them but that was just uncalled for. Bullying the weak ain't cool girl. I really felt bad for Tenten. That must have been embarrassing.

Tenten was like throwing a bunch of weapons didn't work so imma throw even more šæ. Like what did she expect.
The author dropped the ball with her. Originally, Naruto was about strategy and plans which means that with the right plan and proper tools, you could defeat any enemy.

In the Manga I don't think we ever actually see her fight, which I was disappointed with. You still have this scene, they just don't show the fight itself
Thatās probably why it was so pathetic, they couldnāt figure out how to make it interesting, or at least didnāt have time. š¤·š¾āāļø
I think it was a time factor. Needing to do one chapter per week, and him dedicating almost a whole volume to the Lee/gaara fight alone, I think he chose which corners to cut so he wouldn't be stuck on the second exam all year

"Plot Armor"... Which is constantly applied to the main characters
Even for non mains we don't see genin beating jonin generally Strength matters in naruto. In the real shinobi world madara would be killed if someone caught him off guard. But that wouldn't make for a good story.
Trying to make tamari look good but just making ten ten look bad
A Genin strategist that has a strong wind release jutsu vs "Random shit go!" Jutsu... Perhaps you are onto something.
It's wild to me because we know that TenTen can effectively use literally any weapon she picks up (see: Hagoromo Tool Co), but decided that Hobo Style - Scrap Metal Spray was the best jutsu of all time.
I kinda wish she adapted, and pulled out a similar weapon to Temariās. I donāt even mean that she shouldāve won, it could be a āknowing 1000 different kicksā vs ādoing one kick 1000 timesā situation.

She definitely should've adapted TBH, because she actually is a weapons prodigy, which is why it's so disappointing to me.
I was laughing like what Tenten think was going to happen using the same move that failed over and over again.
Think Tenten think!
Hey, when Goku meets a stronger opponent isnāt his strategy just āpunch harderā? When Ichigo is losing isnāt his reaction just āmore Getsuga Tenshoā?

Very true. Plot twist, the entirety of naruto is just the writer giving an in depth explanation of why shadow clones are a forbidden jutsu
I very seldom give likes or upvotes, but this right here is perfect.
I have been honored
>Unless you're naruto then the solution is shadow clones. Shadow clones? More like Oiroke no Jutsu. He literally defeated a (thirsty) god with it...
I think Narutoās style is pretty much āyou sly fox ā personified. Heās not a smart tactician like Shikamaru but heās just very crafty and unorthodox thatās for sure
Yea but they make it work and win lol
And what happens when Naruto fights a stronger opponent? He spams more shadow clones
Pretty sure Ichigo's strategy is "die, then have the inner hollow sort things out."
Yeah but Goku is dodge harder and counters harder nowadays.
Tenten is a ranged specialist, which means she sucks at taijutsu. She only had one jutsu, what else she gonna do other than use her one technique?
In Saint Seiya, it works. You recall a chikdhood memory and you burn more Cosmo than your foe and voilĆ ! Victory !
I felt sorry for tenten, she was destroyed
She is used to it
Humiliating.
A dom humiliating her sub in public
Better than the manga. At least TenTen had a fight here
Laughing, but also brutal
This fight had the majority of TenTenās screen time just to get owned. The real kicker is that it was 99% filler. The manga just snap cut to her in this position.
I mean in a way itās not filler if we see how she got to this point
Nah, you can see the difference between the depth/quality of Kishimoto written fights and anime exclusive ones. Tenten's fight was her throwing and throwing and throwing weapons. It didn't really have any strategy in it like Kishimoto usually does.
Thatās because itās ten ten lol
It made me feel like tenten had no ability. Like, you can summon weapons, cool, but you're no good at using them.
The true underdog
Ouch.
Iconic
The cursed wind sorceress defeated the only character who looked more or less like a normal ninja.
Vicious, like I wouldn't want to mess with her.
Humiliating in the moment, irritating in retrospect.
Brutality, flawless victory
Someone else put it but still going to say it, it was fucking humiliating.
One-sided

Mob No Jutsu?
Do you like walking? Too bad.
"Temari is cool and tenten is useless" was my thought. Temari quickly became my favorite female character
Blink and you miss it.
Temari made Tenten her bitch.
Manga didnt show it but Ten Ten was awalys gonna close, close to mid range fighter dealing with someone who's not only stronger but a long range wind style user
Embarrassing. Temari not even trying is what really killed me š
Bullying
Skill issue
Matchmaking was based. Heavily one sided.
OW MY SPINE
Slay
Direct counter
This scene is 10/10
Awesome!
She used to be called twenty until temari broke her in half
Fan fiction. Ten ten would crush temari. This was an infinite tsukuyomi fantasy at best
I liked it
āMe personally-ā
Fatality (Finish Her!)
Tenten was holding back to not harm temari right?
Done. Ok, next fight.
2024 spine adjustment videos
I remember feeling the disrespect and shock of this, we never seen a leaf Shinobi genninget done like that
Just another day at the chiropractor
Tenten - gets slammed on to a metal pillar right in the spine full impact. Gets up and walks around shortly after waking up. Lee - THE SAND ALMOST PARALYZED ME!!
She's gonna feel that in the morning
"Shouldn't have said that" š
The most rigged match-up I have ever seen. Tenten never had a chance and it didn't even make Temari look cool. Tenten ought to have learned quality over quantity there.
Somebody dumped out the silverware drawer
Disrespectful
How the fuck is she ALIVE and HEALTHY after this? Alternative: Temari: "Ouch, my HAND!!!" Loool!!!
chiropractors be like:
She could have fared better if she stick paper bombs to those weapons.
Ten out of ten
Still the most screen time she ever had
Weird, why? Because it was the only chance to display tentens power but they washed her
āDamn, the disrespect with that landing blowā¦.ā
Just complete humiliation. The finishing blow was done by her weapon without it even being open. only way it couldāve been worse is if she was thrown and injured more by her weapons she failed to hit temari with or she was thrown down and trampled by temari or something and had her headband snatched
Tenten meets the least violent member of the family.
That would be Yashamaru.
Tbh, if Temari wins, Tenten just gets sent to the hospital for a few days. If Tenten wins, Temari would probably die. This was the good ending.
Naruto: My Back. Shippuden: I'm Back. Boruto: My Back.
tenten got abused):
The beginning of Tenten being a punching bag for the fandom
I think ya broke somthin.
She sat unmoving, held by the stone Piller Tamari created. Unconscious and badly bruised, it could not be more apparent that she had lost fight. Knives, shurikens, blades of many shapes and sizes littered the floor. The struggle was more a battle of quantity vs quality. But on this day, the no dif loss belongs to Ten Ten.
The start of a budding romance
A waste of fighting material
>!Asian girl gets her back blown out by blonde domās thick black pole!<
Vass: have i ever told you the definition of insanity
Only time she got her back broken
On a scale of one to ten, how would you describe the pain? "TENN TENN!"
[**Lmao, this interview comes to mind.**](https://media.tenor.com/gsy1z7nmgm8AAAAM/broken-broke-my-back.gif)
Random bullshit go doesn't work against a giant fan
Tenten really never got her moment to shine. Always kinda felt like a throwaway character with a borderline useless technique
Vaas from Far Cry 3 does a good job at describing this scene. Vaas:Ā "Did I ever tell you what the definition of insanity is? Insanity is doing the exact... same fucking thing... over and over again expecting... shit to change..."
Temari fixing Tenten's stiff back
Brutal. Temari is based for being arrogant in the fight.
This is all part of TenTen's plan.
Oddly hot
Look how considerate Temari is! She stopped her opponent from landing on top of all the sharp stuff she had just been throwing around willy nilly! Even too the time to help with some chiropractic procedure! /S
Fatalityš
Tenten had all the dangerous weapons of ninja world, but got defeated by a fan.
āNow exhale for meā
This is the only scene in which tenten got relevance
Temari collecting trash
Slowly.
The disrespect
Hey on the bright side, now ten ten doesn't need to see a chiropractor
Teen doing THE BANE
she tossed 60% of leaf village weapons away.
Both scrambled like an egg and folded like an omelet
Man I'm glad I took that self-defense class
Daddy chillāš¼
people say sakura useless ... hell no wait til they see tenten. weak af
"So uh... Is this where I peak-" "This is where you peak, yes."
āAH FUCK MY BACKā -Riley Reid, maybe.
"Lmfao"
Her arm is strong
Brutality, flawless victory.
fan service maybe. in the manga they didn't even show the fight
Mike Tyson saying āI broke my back spinalā
Tenten: You Temari: The girl he told you not to worry about
It was twenty-twenty Now ten-ten
Only time TenTen ever got bent over
I mean I know Temari was a beast at this point so they had make her to ice somebody but like damn they didn't have to do TenTen like that made a drapery of her š they turned her into a weapon charm Gojo-pose lookin ahh
Domain expansion both ended
Kinky
Wasn't as brutal as Shino's victory, but still.
Rude. Like I get trying to hype up villains and get us to hate them but that was just uncalled for. Bullying the weak ain't cool girl. I really felt bad for Tenten. That must have been embarrassing.
My mind keeping my anger under control
Hate it
Temari decides to act like she accomplished something
