it doesnt work since he’s dead…a better one is the fact he never killed sasuke whenever he got a chance.
Itachi ends up being a good guy and not some random killer of his clan while Sasuke’s turning out to be the killing maniac… Everything kinda switched around between the two. 
nah itachi is still random ish killer…he still offed his clan no matter what.
i think it adds up to the overall plot though. but yes it’s true that sasuke’s survival was probably the most obvious one.
A better explanation for that was that he wanted to keep him around to take his eyes. That would’ve actually made sense.
not really since he made sauske have the mission of trying to get stronger to defeat him. that can easily backfire and sasuke coulda leveled up 10x and pwned itachi. if it was just about the eyes he never had to let sasuke live in hate like that.
I’m not trolling. I’m asking for specific examples. SRKers have the tendency to hide once they’re asked to prove their argument holds water. If you think it’s true just back up your thesis with proof. What does death count prove? Kakashi has killed. He must be evil. I forsee him putting on the cloak next issue.
You guys do know that Itachi prevented another ninja war by killing his traitorous clan, right?
itachi hasnt really killed outside of his clan. im having trouble thinking of who he’s killed.
He hasn’t killed anyone in the story.
Presumably, he’s got bodies on him from his mission work… but he didn’t kill anybody in the story.
big hint of being a good guy to me. as a ninja obviously you’ve killed but if ur evil…youd expect at least 1 visible death.
I’d like to amend Rule #1. Although I’m not entirely sure of the exact wording I have an idea what it is.
First, it should be applied to ALL threads not just the Naruto one.
Second, if anyone breaks Rule #1 and replies with quote they must either delete or replace the text in said quoted post. Otherwise it defeats the purpose of the ignore user function.
Sasuke mentions Itachi’s crying in Chapter 7 - its almost like a random aside, and almost 400 chapters later, this is explained. If this isn’t planned out beforehand, then Kishi had incredible foresight in leaving himself this option. I’d be more inclined to believe it was planned.
Itachi tells Sasuke there will be three people who can use Mangekyo Sharingan, including them. This was obviously a hint at Madara. If not, then we have an unexplained Sharingan just floating out there.
Jiraiya mentions having a source of Akatsuki info. While we have no proof that was Itachi now, if it wasn’t him, then that’s a loose string just hanging out there.
Wait wasnt implied that Itachi was afraid of Jiraya? Maybe that was a hint.
very good post. i was a bit sleepy and couldn’t explain it good enough. i feel the same 
i think he was afraid by reputation only…not from his own experience wit him.
Yo i stopped watching the anime in shippuden. Igot to a fight between some dude from itachis group and some peeps with naruto. They were fighting in water there was also some cave that the good guys were tryin to get into or something. Does anyone know where i left off. How far has the aneme gone since then? Can i watch that shit on youtube.
that was a filler episode.
the anime has gone pretty far and now its in another filler now.
i wonder will this be the last we seen of Fuu and Torune.
Torune had a badass technique. I want to see him again.
