Kakashi Hatake Vs Raiden

#### (Naruto Vs Metal Gear)

Core Theme: White-haired lightning Ninjas who were mutilated in battle, and now wear strange bandages over their eyes. They posses glowing red eyes, whose appearances marks the full unleashing of their power. They have talking dog companions and attempt to halt a contrasting plot to revolutionize the world. They have exceptional cutting abilities thanks to the use of high-frequency vibrations, as well as ocular techniques that strongly enhance their eyesight. They both served as child soldiers, the brutal experiences from this time forever marking them in their later lives.

* Both served as child soldiers, a field they notably excelled. They were recognized as the unrivaled strongest among their unit (The Small Boy Unit and the Konoha Acadmey). Most notably, both fought in a war (The Third Shinobi World War and the Liberian Civil War) that would leave both with significant trauma
* Both are the sons of legendary soldiers (Solidus Snake and Sakumo Hatake) Both of these displayed disturbed method of showing honor would leave Kakashi and Raiden stunned from the violent display (Sakumo committing suicide after dishonoring the code of the Ninja, and Solidus stabbing a POW in front of Raiden to showcase the "honor" of the blade)\*
* Both became known for epithets referring to their cold-blooded, brutal nature on the battlefield (Jack The Ripper and Comrade-Killer Kakashi).
* As well as exceptional soldiers, both proved to be adept swordsmen.
* They would eventually join the elite black-ops wing (FOXHOUND and Anbu) of a national army (America and Konoha). Both of these units were associated with animal iconography.
* Due to the trauma they sustained in the military system, both were ravaged by PTSD and often suffered night terrors relating to their past experiences.
* Both had a somewhat romantic relationship with a brunette girl (Rin Nohara and Rosemary), this relationship only further plunging them into depression after said girl tricked them (Rin fooling Kakashi into impaling her on his Chidori in order to protect the Leaf village, Rose claiming that she miscarried with Raiden's child in order to protect said child from the potential backlash to Raiden's military activities).
* After being engaged in a sword duel, both would lose their eye only to gain an augmented replacement (Kakashi's Sharingan and Raiden's micro-camera eyepatch). Both wear strange forms of eyepatch, and are iconic for the ways in which their eyes glow red.
* Both have powerful ocular techniques (The Sharingan's "Eye of Insight" and Blade Mode) that grant them incredible clarity of perception and supernatural reflexes. They also have a second, more powerful version of this technique (The Mangekyo Sharingan and Ripper Mode). Both of these techniques are associated with their past traumas (Kakashi's Sharingan technically being Obito's, a reminder of his wartime tragedies that has been permanently etched onto his face, and Raiden's Ripper Mode calling on the manifestation of the abject brutality he displayed as a child soldier).
* Both are associated with the element of lightning, many of their attacks conducing electricity.
* Their signature attacks also focus on supreme cutting power through the generation of frenzied and conductive frequencies, with both being associated with their trademark form of "blade" (High Frequency Blade and Lightning Blade)
* Both also tend to mimic those they battle against (Kakashi copying his opponents techniques with the Sharingan and Raiden wielding the blades of the defeated Winds), and have taken up the legendary blades of swordsmen who they had a rivalry with (Raiden wielding Sam's Murasama and Kakashi wielding Zabuza's Kubikiribōchō)
* Both also have a heavy association with the color white. Both have white hair and are connected to titles containing the color (Raiden was called "The White Devil" as a child soldier, while Kakashi is the son of "The White Fang" and wielded the White Light Blade during his battles)
* Both seek to stop the schemes of a terrorist unit (Desperado and Akatsuki), who plan to reshape the world through contrasting plans (Operation Tecumseh sought to jump-start an economy of war, enriching America with a strong sense of social darwanism and rugged individualism, allowing any and all citizens to fight their own wars as they saw fit. Meanwhile, the Eye of the Moon sought to remove all free will from the Shinobi world, ending the cycles of war by unleashing a stagnant, ever-lasting peace upon it)
* Both have a rival in this unit (Jetstream Sam and Obito Uchiha), with whose ideology they strongly clash with. This rival was once a morally true figure, but, somewhere along their personal journeys, lost his way and placed his faith (Sam rather shallowly) in the terrorist plan to revolutionize the world. At the very final moment of this story, this rival is able to pass on a special weapon (Obito's Magenkyo Sharingan and Sam's Murasama Blade) from beyond the grave, allowing Kakashi and Raiden to utilize their power to the fullest and fight back against the overwhelming force of the main antagonist.
* Both also have an link with canine that is most prominent in their talking dog companions (Pakkun and Blade Wolf).
* Both have a dry sarcasm and wit that can sometimes appear unbecoming of their callous, cold exteriors.
* Both have a surprising affinity for their worlds popular culture (Raiden is a film buff and Kakashi is an avid reader of erotica)
