User blog comment:Sentomaru/Doc Q.... is he powerful???/@comment-3075024-20120907022608/@comment-4311467-20120909201222

i think people go for more youthful protagnists because it shows how much potential they have when they grow up, like right now people are predicting when luffy grows up he's going to be the strongest man in one piece.naruto is going to be the hokage and the strongest ninja. ichigo will do whatever his goal is. but torikos future doesn't look as prominent since he levels up every 10 chapters.
