    I voted ninjas, but I want to change my vote. Samurai have the whole thing where they cut people with swords.

    Wait you are going to use google fight, a website that compares the number of hits on the internet between a ninja and samurai to decide which one is cooler?

    Ya'll can keep your Naruto ninja magic, because you aren't getting anywhere near this guy.

    Normally this argument would tear me all up inside with confusion..... but after the day I've had dealing with incompetent minions of distinctly demonic Italien manufacturers..... and having seen that pretty, pretty picture of Toshiro Mifune.... well, Samurai!!!!! Plus less people tend to spell their name with an evil S at the end which should be their... so they must be more respected and your repsepcted if your cool, right?

    Samurais rock! Though I am partial to ninjas these two are worthy opponents! I would vote for both, but I cant, and Samurais needed it more.

    You think you're clever ufo, but The Koga's high wisdom exemps him from your cheap tricks! You are a pirate! And you are trying to pit samurai against ninja when they are only differant in alignment instead of focusing on the pirates!

    Samurai are Jedi...
    Ninja are Sith...


    Comrade... why are we figting? We should be combining our magics to dispose of pirates and thier consumerism madness, and then checking out girls who are young enough to be our daughters but we'll cleverly use the excuse we thought they were haflings...

    You are right as always Koga! Workers of the world unite!

    I agree. Who wants a dumb, powerful ninja when they can have an inhumanly smart ninja?


    Uhh...I can't decide. I continue to think which anime has better fighters: Naruto or Rurouni Kenshin?

    As someone who gets gaara in every naruto personality test The Koga can tell you he's neither unadultrerated sexyness nor he is emo.

    Gaara actually has a decent excuse for being the brooding mess he is. And he gets better with time, eventualy becoming kazekage and actually being a softy.

    Also he's not particularly goodlooking, when you take into consideration it's anime, so thus everybody is good-looking... Gaara just looks like a scrawney boy with redhair. Which is precisely what he is. He seems to look more developed during the second chaptor when he becomes kazekage. But all in all he's no better looking then anybody else.

    And Oorchimaru is deffinitely not hot! That guy is just creepy. The Koga's suprised he didn't just offer Sasuke some candy and throw him in his van...

    Still fairly earily in the Garaa saga, I'm afraid. The only channel I get that plays it moves fairly slow.
