7 Strongest to Weakest Hokage: Ranked
1. Naruto Uzumaki
Hands down the strongest Hokage of the series. The 7th Hokage of the village Konoha. The initial phase of Naruto’s growing up looked a little less promising, but the amount of hard work that this kid put into overcoming his weaknesses was commendable. Naruto possessed the sage mode, the power of Kurama, and the six paths powers and this without a doubt made him the best of all.
2. Hashirama Senju
Hashirama was the 1st Hokage of Konoha, and could fight Madara Uchiha in combat. He was considered to be one of the strongest characters in the series. Using his power of wood release kekkei genkai, he was sufficient to fight Madara as well as the nine tails in the same moment. This defines why he is considered to be the 2nd strongest Hokage of all time.
3. Hiruzen Sarutobi
Konoha’s 3rd Hokage, got the privilege to be trained from Hashirama as well as Tobirama Senju. Hiruzen was popularly known as the “God of Shinobi” and was regarded as the most powerful kage of his day. He mentored Tsunade, Jiraiya, and also Orochimaru. Hiruzen earned the title of “the professor” from knowing all the Jutsu that existed in Konohagakure. Despite being 60, he fought Orochimaru and that will never go in vain.

4. Minato Namikaze
Widely known as Konoha’s Yellow Flash, the 4th Hokage village Konoha. Minato was elected the Hokage as he single-handedly eliminated thousands of ninjas during the 3rd Shinobi world war. It was unfortunate that his reign was very short-lived. He died fighting for the Konoha village and his newborn son against the nine-tailed beast.
5. Tobirama Senju
Tobirama was also a descendant of the Senju clan like Tsunade. Tobirama founded the first shinobi village Konohagakure with his elder brother and the Uchiha clan. After his brother Hashirama passed away, Tobirama succeeded as the 2nd Hokage of the village Konoha.
6. Tsunade Senju
Sunade was one of Konohagakure’s sannin. She was the 5th Hokage of the village Konoha. Tsunade was proven to be an asset during the Second shinobi world war and her medical ninjutsu was extremely helpful in the survival of the 5 kages during the battle against Madara. But irrespective of these qualities she would fall behind when considered with the rest of the Hokage.
7. Kakashi Hatake
A shinobi from the Hatake clan of Konohagakure. Also popularly known as Kakashi of the Sharingan. He was considered to be the most talented Ninja and was always considered to be someone dependable for good advice. After the 4th Shinobi world war, Kakashi became the 6th Hokage of the village Konoha. Kakashi lost his Sharingan as he became a Hokage and that makes him the weakest of all Hokage on the list. His sharingan was the one true capability that differentiated him from everyone else.
