If he somehow were able to put a mark of Itachi(which would be hard) he could just bypass those defenses.

Itachi can seamlessly replace himself with clones, on a level that even the sharingan cannot perceive. Including explosive clones.

please stop copy pasting from naruto wikia

why? because you want to?

Itachi has Susano'o, and the Totsuka blade and Yata mirror, the ultimate defence and offense. How can Minato stand up against that?​

did you read the thread?? i mentioned about that... minato fought A, which has his defense armour, similar to susano when fighting

Itachi is better, i'll debate anyone on Minato vs Itachi

debate me then... madness check the thread below this one, saying love for minato, and tell me how itachi can beat that

They're on equal levels, although Itachi is waaaay cooler.

I agree and in my opinion they are equal. They are both my first favourites.

I'd say minato is slightly stronger, but not by much, and i also think they are the coolest in narutoverse

And Machiko cooler for being quiet, not having many friends and stuff>?? I know it loks cool, but minato seems that he's happy and still cool... try to act like itachi personality and you'll know what i am talking about

Minato is fodder, Bro.

Even Hashirama admitted Itachi is better than him.

fodder? in what universe?

Minato wins this,he has all the answers to Itachi's attacks and can come out as the victor if the two of them were to face each other in ideal conditions.

Read the following

Minato vs Sharingan Itachi :

Minato can beat Sharingan Itachi.

Minato has more speed,raw strength,chakra, powerful summons, seals.

Further he did beat Sharingan Tobi [MS Obito].


Minato vs Amaterasu :

A Few thing from wiki :
A using his Lightning Release Armour enhanced Body Flicker Technique avoided a short-range Amaterasu launched at him by Sasuke in an instant.

The only thing that the flames have failed to burn into or through is Gaara's chakra-infused sand. However, the flames burn fairly slowly, sometimes allowing anyone struck by Amaterasu an opportunity to remove whatever clothing or body parts have been caught ablaze. Nagato was able to deflect the flames from his body using Shinra Tensei. Use of the technique also puts a great deal of strain on the user, usually causing their eyes to bleed.

Minato dodged A's FULL speed the picture is in the Susanoo section below.
We've seen that A who wasn't even using his full speed dodged Sasuke's Amaterasu [Which according to Shee was better than Itachi's] at very close range. So Minato can do the same with more ease.

So even if Minato gets hit by Amaterasu he being the fastest of them all and thanks to s/t can save himself by teleporting himself back to his safe house. He did this when Tobi had bombed new-born Naruto.

Plus Itachi can't use Amaterasu very often it affects him badly because he lacks the Eternal

One more thing Jiraya sealed Amaterasu. So its safe to assume that Minato being the sealing master he is can do the same with more ease.

Minato vs Tsukuyomi :

Tsukuyomi requires eye contact to be performed. Its a short Ranged Genjutsu and to my knowledge the root knew about it and It hasn't killed a single soul.

Guy was confident to go up against Itachi w/out Eye contact a Jounin os his calibre can fight w/pot eye contact. Further its common knowledge that when fighting a Sharingan user avoid eye contact and that can be done.

For Itachi to trap Minato in tsukuyomi Minato need to look directly into hie eyes and that to at a cllose range which Minato will never do.

In fact Itachi can't afford to keep Minato at a close range because Minato is bad close range match up.

I mean look at all his fights all he does is to get close to the opponent, All those fodders, Tobi even A the raikage...all those pictures are posted below.

Minato vs Susanoo :

Minato can get past Itachi's complete Susanoo -

Here are some photos that shows that Minato can teleport in a radius of few meters around the FTG Kunai

Look at the distance

Appearing directly above Tobi

Marked Tobi's Back but attacked from the front

You must be registered for see images
Teleporting himself to the Kunai

You must be registered for see images
This is the width of Itachi's Complete Susanoo
You must be registered for see images

From the above data its pretty clear than minato can get past the susanoo via FTG Kunai i.e. Teleporting Inside of it.

Further once Minato's done that Itachi's end is fixed because his body is under enormous amount of pain He won't be able to defend himself.

There are other ways as well such as marking the ground or stones etc.
Minato can attack the susanoo itself :
Here we can see that Danzo used his Summon against Sasuke's Offensive, long Ranged Complete Susanoo

You must be registered for see images

And it reduced the Susanoo to the incomplete state, the only reason it failed becasue Fire worked against the wind.

In Minato and Itachi's case Minato can use this on Itachi's Defensive Susanoo

You must be registered for see images
Don't forget Gamabunata has water style that has advantage against Fire style.

Also this is the same summon that went up against Strong Rinnegan summons held its own against a tailed beast Shukaku and restrained a complete Kurama

Plus Minato can use this as well

You must be registered for see images
The three most powerful toads :

Also before saying BS like Itachi can control them via genjutsu Consider Itachi's state and the Chakra being drained from his body [used for maintaining MS and Susanoo]. He can't do shit against them. He is not Nagato!

In fact now that I think about it Itachi cant put up a descent fight if he has to go through all these summmons.

This could also be the thing why Jiraya was so confident when we was up against Itachi and Kisame

You must be registered for see images

I mean yeah Itachi never intended to fight but I have 1 question, Has Jiraya ever underestimated his opponent or boasted that He would kill someone who's power would be greater than his ?

Don't you remember what he did before going up against Pain?, He summoned Gerotora because Pain was the only opponent Jiraya wasn't sure about.

One more thing before posting the pic that show Itachi blocking the Rinnegan view with shuriken, The Rinnegan summons don't think for themself they just do what the Rinnegan user wishes that's why they just charge at the opponent w/out thinking or w/out any strategy.

I honestly didn't spend the time to read all of that, because I already agree with you.

I will however like to mention another possible strategy.

Minato has the space time barrier, allowing him to transport any projectile wherever he wants. This is frankly a secret OP jutsu. Just think. He could have Gama shoot a water cannonball and then warp it INTO Itachi's Susanoo. That should be entirely within the realm of possibility. Similarly, Minato could also warp one of his kunai into Susanoo, allowing him to teleport into it.

I just wanted to add another possible strategy to Minato's arsenal.

Edit: Also a possible argument to those of you saying that he would look into Itachi's eyes because he did against Tobi, a possible explanation is that Minato, knowing that Tobi was already using a genjutsu to control the fox, would be unable to use it on Minato at the same time. So Minato, understanding that he was not threatened by genjutsu, freely looked into Tobi's eyes.

Also check this thread

Edit :

Kishimoto has already answered in his fanbook that anyone with toad contract can summon Ma and Pa. If Minato does that U_U

No thanks, they start at 20 meters, both have been instantly summoned and have perfect resolve.
I'll be using Itachi with First Encounter Stamina.

If youre saying that minato can get itachi before he uses susanoo then no. Once Itachi uses susanoo its over, period

Also, all minato does to teleport is throw shuriken, Itachi at age 11-13 was fodderizing targets from with ease. It will take him no time at all to track minato's kunai and either destroy them or throw them off track.

Minato is pure close range, while Itachi can cover multiple ranges, this coupled with the fact that Itachi has counters for almost every move that minato has simply makes him better U_U

Minato is overall better but Itachi matches him with his extraordinary expertise in genjutsu field...

That's why I put them on equal level and a unique league of their own...
If ever they had to fight, one mistake can declare the outcome of the battle... This close they are(even in my fav list)

I knew people were going to use susano... do you think susano is unbeatable? minato could summon a toad over susano and others to help him break it

Itachi's eyes would lost their light over time but Minato will always have his justu so I think minato is slightly better over time

However you can try to post a rebuttal against my post ;)

It's funny how Itachi and Minato get matched in vs threads alot like they are rivals.....I guess you can say they are, they fight for being the most overrated character in the show.
