after said first meeting dei developed two anti itachi jutsus. So that doesn’t mean much. And naruto plot no jutsu aside, is pretty strong. Cuz as of right now, Itachi isn’t stronger than naruto. smarts we dont’ know enough about itachi to say he is smarter.
What about susannoo?
microscopic explosions
his anti-itachi jutsu worked really well considering kakashi lopped off his arm and then sasuke took him down with the sharingan immediately after deidara mention his supposed anti-sharingan tech…note that both of those guys weren’t on itachi’s level at the time of those fights.
sasuke could fly: itachi can’t
sasuke has a lightning affinity: itachi does not
sasuke has kuchiyose no jutsu: itachi hasn’t been shown to have such.
again naruto has never been about linear fighting. It’s all about knowledge of opponent, and having a game plan they aren’t expecting/can counter.
Sasuke matched up well with deidara due to said aspects above. Not saying itachi is a chump, cuz overall i’d say itachi matches up better in a lot more ways. Just i don’t think itachi could get past deidara convincingly let alone fight pein.
c’mon son, kakashi couldn’t fly and he chopped the nigga’s arm off. sasuke didn’t even have his mangekyo shit at the time and he got genjutsu raped. dude isn’t fucking with itachi.
EDIT: i’m watching the anime version of the fight for the first time now and it’s kinda loltastic
Why are you guys breaking rule #1? Just throw him in the musolini tier and move on.
cuz theory fighter keeps this thread alive
We should change the thread title though. Something about honoring the memory of badassness that is Kisame Hoshigaki.
it’s not far fetched to say deidara can beat itachi. you guys keep thinking linear. so i’m done. w/e.
all ima say is deidara has the tools to win a fight with itachi. for you to say otherwise is w/e. think whatever
edit: deidara wasn’t trying to kill kakashi , he was trying to capture naruto btw. big difference.
itachi uses tsukuyomi. it’s super effective.
lol I honestly thought we would never see konan again. I thought she was released from the manga after the pain arc ended.
it’s be dope if konan can pull some yomiko readman level paper jutsus out and actually give madara a fight.
Didn’t you know? Madara’s weakness is paper cuts.
But…it…chakra sucking…
Dammit, that’s 2 wrong posts in a row.
But the Gates don’t release chakra (remember, the whole “it’s just sweat burning off” thing to explain Gai’s aura), so even if Kisame’s water prison did get out, 7th Gate would still in theory counter it.
what do you guys consider “more” canon, the manga or the anime?
…Are you really asking that question? Seriously?
i stopped watching the anime awhile ago and now i’m watching some of these fights on youtube and there is somewhat different shit going down, so…no. batman tas canon is different from that of the comics, so i’m asking if you think it’s the same for naruto.
I’m sure that everyone thinks she has to have something up her sleve. She knows that he can barbecue that ass and the battleground in one go so to be chillin all up in his face trash talking means she’d better have something to back it up.
They ain’t THAT stupid.
Sorry. J-man is done no matter how much we want otherwise. R.I.P.
I’m suggesting this: pour some brew on the streets for a dead homie.
Didn’t you know? Konan’s weakness is that she has a vag.
