I se, so the data book is wrong about ninja but not jutsu?? You only know the weakness of Tensei because Kishi showed us, if you only saw Tensei once like Susanno, you would say Pain could deflect all attacks and that is the exact problem with your line of thinking.
Basically what you're saying is this: "Pain was not invincible even though the data book said so, but Susanno is invincible because the data book says so."....................seriously? That's some of the most backwards logic I've ever seen
And btw Pain vs naruto was exactly my point, why are you acting like you got me? The data book was being poetic about pain and calling him an unkillable god, yet now we see he is very clearly no god and does have a weakness...the same is obviously true for Susanno.
I would agree with petra.
Im a Itachi fan, and as you can see my avatar is a dead give away.
However Im still realistic in regards to when a jitsu is better than another.
As we have seen in the manga this far we can classify susanoo as an absolute defense. Please correct me if Im wrong.
In the beginning of Naruto we have encountered numerous others with absolute defenses, ect Gaara and Haku and if we take Azuma's teacher with his "bhuda technique" (lol I call it this for my own ignorance to check up in the manga as what its called.)
All of those techniques are classify as high end techniques where the user have never been defeated/even got harmed in some cases, and even so we all now what happened to Haku aswell as with Gaara and those jitsus that was once feared as impenetrable and unavoidable and unstoppable ect always seem to have some weakness towards them. What then makes Susanoo any different? I would say the only logical reason is that we have not seen anybody fight a real fight or long enough against Susanoo to determine what his weakness might be.
Sasuke was almost all out of chakra when facing Susanoo. Even though he used kirin unknowingly against Susanoo, and even though kirin is described as a S class unavoidable blah blah blah jitsu, this doesnt make it the end all and be all of all jitsus.
It only proves that Susanoo is able to sustain damage from that type of jitsu.
Lets speculate then if Susanoo is a "god" and unstoppable what would you think would happen if lets say the third hokage or 4th summoned the Death "god" on Itachi, do you think that Susanoo would be able to "protect" Itachi from that? No, I dont think so, as the death god was able to seal the Kyuubi within Naruto, and the Kyuubi is said to have nearly an infinite amount of chakra.
Thus I came to the conclusion that Susanoo is a very strong jitsu, but like all the jitsu's in the Narutovers, there is a weakness and the only question is who would find out what is Susanoo if he is still able to be used as Itachi was the only know user that was capable of summoning it and its unknown whether Sasuke have obtained it, as it would be mere speculation and assumptions to suggest that he have that potential.
Another thing. If Susanoo was able to seal Oro, we all saw that Itachi needed to lure Oro out in order to seal him. If that is not the case, and Susanoo could have just sealed Oro straight away why didnt Itachi use it first on Sasuke? Why then would you think that Susanoo can seal the Kyuubi if its not released in its full form and still sealed up within Naruto, needless to say that might not even have the potential in sealing a thing with semi infinite chakra?
I would prefer that we rather speculate and give theories on what happend/happens in the manga than on some databook that is written on a certain time to spice things up for the readers only for that given moment.
