The friendship and rivalry of these characters is healthier and makes them the best duo
One of the things Masashi Kishimoto did very well with the series of Naruto and Naruto Shippuden was the theme of rivalries. And, throughout the franchise, several examples of colleagues and rivals are presented to us, like Naruto and Sasuke, Rock Lee and Neji Hyuga, Jiraiya and Orochimaruamong others. However, some think that the most iconic duo is that of Naruto and Sasuke, but this is not so.
And we no longer refer strictly to the most powerful duo, where obviously they are, but there are two other characters that have a great friendship and rivalry that has been embodied throughout the work, with intense moments, other emotional and others quite comic. We refer to Might Guy and Kakashi Hatake, two powerful, intelligent ninjas and with quite opposite personalities.
Kakashi and Guy's friendship/rivalry has no comparison in the work
These characters starred in many fun moments in their healthy competition
Kakashi and Guy are two characters that, beyond being extremely strong, are also very different. In fact, on the one hand, Guy is more cheerful, positive and even innocent compared to his friend. But it's not all, since they didn't have the best beginning either.
The series tells us that both met when the entrance results of the Ninja Academy were published, where Kakashi did classify, but Guy no. The young Hatake did not give importance to the boy, But his father, Sakumohe saw the training signs in the body of the young Guy, so he suggested to his son to ask him his name, because he would become stronger than him. And so this rivalry was born.
Since then, periodically, Kakashi and Guy have friendly clashes where one or the other can leave. These can be crazy challenges or even Ninja duels. But despite Kakashi's cold personality, The truth is that he enjoys his friend's company, since he is the only one who has left.
At first, Kakashi didn't want to have anything to do with Guy
Kakashi and Guy are promoted and motivated to get ahead and become stronger, all in a healthy and friendly way. Even though Kakashi I didn't want to relate to someone without “talent” as was Guy When he was a child, he ended up recognizing his power and confirming that he had overcome him.
The friendship and link of these characters has always been very strong and has managed to resist until the worst traumas of this Ninja world. And when the events of the fourth Great War Ninja occurred, These characters only became even closer.
Kakashi and Guy faced Tobi together until he revealed himself as obito, What impacted Kakashi. However, Guy was there to make him come to reason and support his friend at this difficult moment. This is a great example of his solidarity and companionship.
The challenges and duels among these characters helped Kakashi a lot
But it's not all, since after the battle between Guy against Madara, when he opened the eight internal doors, Konoha's green beast was in a critical state, although he was saved by Naruto. However, its lower part had been very hurt, so he had to retire. AND Despite having to wear wheelchairKakashi was there to help his dear friend.
It was, in fact, during this fight against Madara that Kakashi acknowledged that Guy was much stronger than him. The friendship of these characters was so great That, even after becoming the sixth Hokage, Kakashi walked and pushed Guy's wheelchair along the village while talking and enjoyed the current peace.
And when Kakashi withdrew from his role as a ninja, We could see what happened even longer with Guywhile they talked and remembered the old days. This is a clear example of fraternity and friendship between the characters.
Guy was always a pillar and a positive force in Kakashi's life, which It was fundamental considering all the tragedies experienced by the young Hatakeso, without Guy, we don't know what path he could have taken. This friendship may not have as important as that of Naruto and Sasuke, but without a doubt it is the best and healthier.
