I don't think Sasuke can use amaterasu anymore

[ninthgate]

EDIT: After seeing the kabuto fight again, I know I'm wrong, but...

I still think we're not going to see Sasuke use it much, at least to one shot a major opponent anymore.
It seems like Kishi is trying to steer Sasuke Into more of the enton sword/arrow/magatama direction

Correct me if I'm wrong, but has Sasuke ever used amaterasu since he got his EMS eyes transplanted?

It seems like he can only spawn enton around him, or in his susanoo arrows/magatamas...

We know Itachi imparted his MS powers into Sasuke, so I believe now that Sasuke has ditched his original eyes, the amaterasu is technique isn't available anymore, but only his unique power (enton flame control).

Would be convenient for Kishi too, considering that amaterasu was a little too overpowered of an ability (with it spawning at the focal point and all). Having that ability with 20/20 eyesight would be too much.

Enton is an advanced form of Amaterasu. It's the ability to control and give shape to the black flames. In a way, a lot more effective than Itachi's version.

 

[ANiMUS]

Another baseless claim. NEED PROOF!!

 

[Champ]

He used Amaterasu against Kabuto, to protect Itachi

 

[tristan]

This is a stupid thread...enton is an amaterasu manipulated technique..
Just like a chidori which was run through the sword / ground / etc...

This is also what makes sasuke better than itachi since he can manipulate his amaterasu at will: to serve like a shield / an offensive projectile / etc.

 

[Ninpou]

He used it agaisnt Kabuto and Enton doesn't make his eye bleed.

 

[kamizon]

Enton is a flame release.. meaning he has mastered amaterasu enough to control it

 

[tristan]

Another baseless claim. NEED PROOF!!

Check the fight against raikage...the lightning shinobi there mentioned that sauceke might be better than itachi since he can manipulate his amaterasu...

 

[ninthgate]

Amterasu is clearly different in it's method of application. Amaterasu spawns at the location of the eye's focus, whereas enton spawns at some point surrounding the user.

We know Itachi imparted his MS power into sasuke.

We also know Sasuke had the unique ability to control the flames and that Itachi had no such ability.

Therefore its safe to assume each of their eyes have their own unique powers.

Ask yourself, why does Sasuke not use amaterasu anymore. And yes yes, I'm well aware that they both involve black flames. But amaterasu and enton are completely different names, and have completely different delivery methods.

 

[johnny335704]

I think Sasuke can use amaterasu but up to a close distance only, not far.
Otherwise the time, Sasuke arrived on the battlefield; he would have used amaterasu on Juubi and finished it off already.

Also May be, Juubi can not be defeated by amaterasu only.

I'll check that.
Anyone have a direct reference to the chapter?
I've forgotten the exact specifics of that fight ><

You're arguing Oranges and Tangerines OP. That's like saying Rasenshuriken isn't a Rasengan variant because it's thrown instead of thrust into the enemy. Amaterasu spawns at the focal point, this is correct. In the case of controlling Amaterasu with Blaze Release, the focal point is given shape. (i.e. a sword, covering the susano'o ribcage, etc)

Why don't you read the manga. Sasuke with the Eternal has already used Amaterasu

I'm tempted to say...that Itachi could have been the only one using amaterasu there, and sasuke subsequently/simultaneously used enton on those black flames to help expand them, seeing as the text "amaterasu" is only in Itachi's panel. But I admit, that could be little far fetched

ty...

I was just wondering that's all...and forgot about some of these fights, seing as I read it like a year ago. why sasuke wouldn't use amaterasu at all during this recent fight? Seems weird. He could just snipe at Juubi right?

 

[Zebstrika]

He can still use Amaterasu, however he prefers to use Enton I guess.

Also if Amaterasu hit the Jubi it would still get burned. The fire would have spread slower, the attack would have been smaller, but it would still burn the Jubi and continue to grow on the Jubi's body.

The Rasenshuriken operated as a catalyst it helped speed up the process.

enton to amaterasu is like rasenshiruken to rasengan
its just better

I think Kishi wanted to have some teamwork going between Sasuke and Naruto. Given amaterasu's clear ability to engulf all of 8 tails in flame during the sauske vs Bee fight, I'm pretty confident he could've sniped at Juubi's face from the start of today's chapter.

He used it agaisnt Kabuto and Enton doesn't make his eye bleed.

Yeah , you are right
