“Naruto Fans Defend Shisui from Slander” – Fans Clash with Dragon Ball Community Over Similarities Between Shisui and SSJ4 Gogeta

Fans of Dragon Ball and Naruto have a long-standing history of passionate debates on social media. Recently, a discussion erupted on X when Dragon Ball enthusiasts compared Super Saiyan 4 Gogeta to Naruto’s Shisui Uchiha. This was seen as provocative, as Super Saiyan 4 Gogeta did not achieve much during his brief appearance in GT, despite his immense power. Similarly, Shisui is portrayed as exceptionally strong but was ultimately defeated by Danzo.

This comparison sparked irritation among some Dragon Ball fans who appreciate Super Saiyan 4 Gogeta for his immense abilities and distinctive charisma. In contrast, Naruto fans highlighted that Shisui’s significance in the storyline goes beyond his raw power, emphasizing his crucial role in Itachi Uchiha’s character development.

The Clash Between Dragon Ball and Naruto Fans Over Super Saiyan 4 Gogeta and Shisui Uchiha

To understand the comparison, it’s essential to note that Goku and Vegeta fused into Super Saiyan 4 Gogeta to combat Omega Shenron at the conclusion of GT. Despite being the most formidable character in the series, he ultimately achieved nothing due to his tendency to waste time. This reflects Shisui Uchiha’s situation, who, celebrated as one of the strongest members of his clan’s history, was easily defeated by Danzo.

The statement also caused frustration among Naruto fans, who have a strong attachment to Shisui, particularly due to his expanded portrayal in the Studio Pierrot anime adaptation. Even some supporters of Super Saiyan 4 Gogeta expressed annoyance at the comparison, asserting that while he may not have contributed significantly to the storyline, he was undeniably the strongest character in GT.

Both assertions hold truth, as Gogeta was the most powerful character yet did not achieve anything significant, while Shisui, despite having great power, also faced defeat. This highlights how a character’s influence on the story cannot solely be measured by their power level.

Online Reactions

The appeal of Super Saiyan 4 Gogeta within the Dragon Ball fanbase is clear, considering he is the fusion of iconic characters Goku and Vegeta, coupled with his natural charm. In contrast, Shisui’s popularity is intriguing, given his limited screen time in Naruto.

This interest likely stems from Shisui being recognized as an exceptionally powerful member of the Uchiha clan, noted for his optimistic and noble demeanor, a rarity among his clan, which includes darker figures like Madara, Obito, and Sasuke.

Some fan reactions on X included:

“Ok but ssj4 Gogeta is the actual strongest character in GT and Shisui is statement man,”someone said.

“At least Gogeta actually does something in games, they give this guy all these power-ups including a Kishimoto designed perfect Susanoo in a game where he’s not even relevant anymore, and he still gets clapped by Danzo,”another person said.

“Not even because SS4 Gogeta at least at one point WAS the strongest. Shisui has quite literally always been a fraud,”someone else said.

Regardless of varying opinions from Naruto and Dragon Ball fans, every individual is entitled to have their favorite characters for any reason.
