first off, Sennin isnt an official military rank. Jiraiya is a Sennin, Orochimaru and Tsunade are not. Sennin, just means Hermit ie, wise man etc...

the Sannin are offically Jounin rank. well, Tsunade now isnt. Jiraiya and Orochimaru arent part of Konoha anymore...

and for those who are mistaken, knowing 1000 jutsu does mean you own. if someone specialises in one type of jutsu for example Neji, it will be hard for them to counter someone who realises their weakness. therefore having a variety of jutsu means you have better choice in different situations. bigger variety of jutsu = more ownage

Kakashi is the "copy ninja" he know how to counter an attack. Because he knows more than 1000 jutsus. But Gai who is good at hand-to-hand combat can defeat kakashi with less problems than others, because sharingan can't see the movements of hand-to-hand combat. So i think that kakashi is the best jounin in leaf "overall"


i really dont want to dive into another Sharingan vs Taijutsu discussion, but, Sharingan does own every type of jutsu, Taijutsu/Ninjutsu/Genjutsu. it can predict and copy Taijutsu, it can counter and copy Genjutsu, and it can copy Ninjutsu and show the person a jutsu's weakness. and anyway, Kakashi seems to have the same level of Taijutsu as Gai since he was able to teach the same Taijutsu to Sasuke in a month.

Copy Ninja Kakashi >> all
