Everybody mentions Tenten's ability. But no one ever mentions fire jutsu. That surely was presented in the lames ways. Did anyone ever win a fight with fire, did fire ever succeed? We see the strongest ninja using fire, but not even they could make any use of it. Sasuke and Itachi made fire jutsu (the great fire clan, haha), but none of them succeeded to make any damage to the real opponent. Sasori made huge fires, but Sakura and Chiyo grandma simply jumped behind a random stone (biggest LOL). Random ninja made fire in the Konoha vs Sound+Sand war, totally useless. I think Kakzu also did some fire, but i can't even remember it properly, it sure didn't make a great effect on his fight The 2 tailed girl in demon form made huge fire, the 2 akatsukians were just having fun. Jiraiya+Gamabunta made huge fire, easily neutralized by Manda+Orochimaru, it even gave an opening for them to attack.
And guess what was the only case where fire made serious damage to a ninja!
It was poor Asuma who did hurt himself with his own fire This last really made fire look absolutely pathetic as an element.

And i almost forgot, if we can regard amaterasu fire, well it was good only to escape. I know it could have been presented in better way, for example the fire kills Jiraiya, but it was not presented that way, and this is the case for all other times when someone used fire. The obvious reason if that Kishimoto never wanted to draw people burned by fire, it sure looks ugly and cannot be healed simply as a cut by a kunai.

Fire is the biggest filler-jutsu ever

I agree with all of this. Every time Sasuke used a filler-fire jutsu during the chuunin exam arc, I couldn't help thinking, "does that idiot actually think that attack will work?"

Even Itachi's Amaterasu was never used for anything more than escaping. If the MS's Ameterasu is so powerful, then why didn't he use it on Jiraiya from the get-go? LAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAME.

i dont want to admit it but yes fire jutsus didnt work well in the series so far...

just sasuke destroyed annoying kagebunshins on the roof...and he trapped orochimaru with his fire jutsu once but his level was not enough or orochimaru was able to escape...

If you run out of supplies you're dead.
And therein lies the problem. Ten Ten has an "ordinary ninja" fighting style, which makes her worthless compared to the important characters with their own styles. Only marginally better than pre-timeskip Sakura.

1. The tenten now could destroy the pre-time skip sakura...
2. weapons keep you alive, i not the kakashi gaiden. ("we're running low on supplies... we wont be able to hold out much longer")
3.Most ninja's have, ordinary fighting styles. DO you remember all the the ninja in the chunnin arc during the exams? they all looked freakishly frightening and scary but in truth they probably suck. These are the ninja that are used in the front line.
4. So, tenten, in wartime, would be a great advantage, i mean cmon let's replay the situation.
(We're running low on supplies... we won't be able to hold out much longer...
Tenten is with them- no problem!- SHOING!- 50 kunai and random weapons appear...

Yeah, but all that means is that she's a great support person...when she has been heralded as a great attacking ninja (she supposedly hits her target 10 times out of 10). I haven't seen her land a single blow in any fight I can remember. Summoning weapons is nice for those who are on support, but if you're on the front lines, and you can't hit a target, what good are you. Like I said before, summoning weapons is cool and all, but Ten Ten seems to miss a lot, so...snore.

the only reason tenten missed a lot is because she fought temari, who uses wind to block. and her clone who knew her style

And we haven't seen her in any other actual fights...training, yes...fights no...even though the odds were stacked against her, the hype of her skill suggests that she could have hit at least once...and yet she missed every time. I'm not saying she's an unskilled kunoichi, I'm just saying her special skills are snore.

Water clones, what's the point? You'll just end up getting wet compared to making an ordinary kage bushin.

I agree with you on that...

and on #3, I can't help thinking, cannon fodder! Use them to charge the enemy and hope their mangled bodies break their attack.

Most useless: Sexy-no-jutsu, it is just _that_ useless.

Worst: Rasengan, because really it's overused and is holding Naruto back in developing his arsenal and skill.

-People are probably going to make a voodoo doll of me after I say this but for me Chidori is a pretty worthless jutsu unless it is supplemented by the Sharingan. It takes a long time to set up, your opponent must be immobilized or else you are not going to hit him/her at all and it's an attack in a straight line which is necessary for momentum. I didn't include the Rasengan but it's pretty close.

That's exactly why Yondaime told Kakashi that very thing. Chidori almost got him killed before he had the sharingan. The Rasengan is different because it doesn't require high speed(I think Kishimoto must have forgotten about this when Sasuke used it on Naruto while standing still).

What if it was an incomplete jutsu maybe Sasuke developed on it and made it so he could use it in any situation btw it would be so funny if kakashi uses rakiri on itachi, itachi steps out the way and sticks his leg out kakashi would kill himself
