Rinnegan is better than Sharingan

Now I will proceed to refute my opponent’s arguments and defend my case. Refutations- The first argument that Pro brings up is the fact that the Rinnegan is an evolved form of the Sharingan; however, there are several problems with this argument. The first and foremost problem is the fact that Kabuto Yakushi and Orochimaru were simply hypothesizing that the Rinnegan is an evolution of the Sharingan; thus, it is not actually possible to determine if the Rinnegan is an evolved form of Sharingan [1]. In addition, Pro makes the mistake of attempting to combine our universe with the Naruto universe. Evolution is evidently not going to work in the same way in both universes; thus, even if the Rinnegan was an evolved form of the Sharingan, it would not make it more powerful. Furthermore, look at evolution in our world today. Evolution is highly dependent on natural selection and has nothing to do with which species is more “powerful. ” Rather, it has to do with which species is best suited to the environment. Dinosaurs are much more powerful than today’s animals, but the only reason they went extinct is because they could not survive in their environment; thus, the same concept applies here. It is highly possible that the Rinnegan changed into the Sharingan only because of the particular situation Madara was in and not because the Rinnegan is more powerful. The second point Pro makes is that the Rinnegan is superior to Sharingan because it is capable of creating any jutsu without any limitation whatsoever; however, I must disagree with this statement. According to Narutopedia, the Rinnegan allows the user to master all five basic nature transformations; thus, the Rinnegan certainly does have limitations in place, considering Rinnegan users are capable of only mastering the basics [1]. Furthermore, the Sharingan can copy nearly any jutsu with one exception. This exception is kekkei genkai (which are traits inherited only by blood line). In addition, Pro states that Pain/Pein was capable of bringing back the dead; however, Pain/Pein is only capable of bringing the people he has killed back to life. Therefore, this ability is rather redundant, since you can only bring someone back to life after you went through the trouble of killing them. Pro's third point is that the Rinnegan allows the user to control the tailed beasts better than the Sharingan. As proof, he provides two scenes from the show to back up his argument. Although I am not familiar with the scenes that Pro is referring to (since I am not that far into the series yet), I will do my best to refute it. Tobi is an unreliable example of showing how the Rinnegan can control the tailed beasts better than the Sharingan. This is because when Tobi was fighting Minato, he was using the normal, average Sharingan to control the tailed beast. It is almost certain that if he had used Mangekyo Sharingan or even Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan he would have not lost control of the Kyuubi (also referred to as the Nine-Tailed Fox, or Kurama). Furthermore, when Tobi was fighting Naruto, Tobi had both the Rinnegan and the Sharingan; thus, it is likely that the Sharingan played a role in controlling the Nine-Tails. In fact, it is likely that Tobi was controlling the Nine-Tails with the Sharingan alone. This is because Naruto removed the spikes, which are necessary for controlling tailed-beasts if you are a Rinnegan user. This in turn means that the only way Tobi could have been controlling the Nine-Tails is with the average Sharingan. Pro's last argument is that Jiraiya lost to the Six Paths of Pain/Pein; however, Pro admits himself that this was mainly because Jiraya was not aware of Pain/Pein's full abilities. If Jiraiya was aware it is likely he would have stood a better chance. Pro then says that Naruto was able to beat the Six Paths of Pain/Pein, but I’m not sure how this proves Sharingan cannot beat the Six Paths of Pain/Pein. Now I will proceed with my final arguments. R3: Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan This is the most powerful form of Sharingan for two main reasons. The first reason is because with the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, your eyes never decay or get worse. They will always be in perfect condition. The second reason is because all abilities from the Mangekyo Sharingan are further strengthened; thus, someone with Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan would have a stronger Susanoo than someone with a normal Mangekyo Sharingan. Other than these two factors, however, the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan is not much different from the other two. R4: Additional Sharingan Abilities There are several more abilities that the Sharingan grants the user. One of these abilities is space-time migration, which allows the user to teleport wherever he/she wants [2]. This is highly useful in battle and characters that do not possess the Sharingan are incapable of doing this jutsu. The Sharignan also allows the user to become intangible whenever they like, which means that all attacks against them will be futile, since they will simply pass through the Sharingan user [2]. The Sharingan also allows you to find others no matter where they are with ease [2]. Another interesting ability of the Sharingan is to be able to suck other opponents or even attacks into your eye and send them to a pocket dimension [2]. The Sharingan user is capable of going inside this pocket dimension as well, meaning that this is the perfect hiding place against any attacks [2]. A similar move called “Kamui” enables the Sharingan user to transport nearly anything to another dimension and then spit them back out [3]. This attack is highly damaging and is impossible to block [3]. An additional ability of the Sharingan that has been recently introduced is the Izinami [4]. Izinami is considered by some the “trump-card” of Sharingan, because it is capable of changing destiny; thus, one could simply make it their destiny to win a fight and they would not lose [4]. The only drawback is that this move may only be used once in your lifetime (similar to the Izanami). Of course, it is not yet known if one could alter their own destiny so that they could use it again, so it may be possible to use it more than once. Conclusion- In conclusion, the Sharingan has a very high and diverse arrange of abilities that allow the user to teleport; become intangible; teleport others to a pocket dimension; summon Susanoo; control humans, animals, and tailed beasts; copy other techniques and jutsu; hypnotize one’s enemies; become invincible for a short period of time; and alter destiny to your will. Clearly, the Sharingan is extremely powerful and is far superior to the Rinnegan. I would also like to thank my opponent for not only allowing me to recuperate from my mistake, but also for instigating such a wonderful debate. I wish him the best of luck in his arguments and refutations next round and hope that he is enjoying this debate. [1] . http://naruto.wikia.com... [2] . http://naruto.wikia.com...
