Itachi is a clairvoyant

[Slender Man]

The term clairvoyance is used to refer to the ability to gain information about a person through special means i.e. it is a form of extra-sensory perception. A person said to have the ability of clairvoyance is referred to as a clairvoyant ("one who sees clearly").

Even though Itachi being a clairvoyant is explicitly backed up in the manga,[SUP]

Did anyone notice anything peculiar about the genjutsu in the spoiler? The only way Itachi could have casted something like that is if he had access to Naruto's memories -- which only solidifies the case that Itachi is indeed a clairvoyant.

 

[FemmeFatale]

He had access to his memeories, he is in Naruto mind sort off.

THe only clairvoyants are the Hyyuga and Pein (with his astral projection jutsu)

 

[Corgi]

He just turned Naruto's regrets against him.

Nothing special.

 

[Dark Matter Thief]

Itachi's done some shit.

1) Knew exactly what room Naruto was in when he went to the hotel.

2) Knew that Sasuke wasn't dead.

Curious things...U_U

 

[HiddenSound]

I was under the impression that Itachi didn't know what was going on in Naruto's head, just that he knew he was screwing him up.

Clairvoyance is knowing something is happening while it's happening despite not being around to witness or experience it.

That could very well be a generic genjutsu, it just turns your biggest insecurities, fear and shame against you. Itachi didn't select those memories to haunt him, the genjutsu automatically did it.

Thread=bullshit.

What about when Itachi conjectured that Sasuke was no doubt alive, even though he had absolutely no rational way of knowing this? And he wasn't being whimsical either; he seemed as though he actually knew for a fact.

When was this? After the Deidara battle and Zetsu reported that Sasuke was dead?

How did Itachi know it was specifically Sasuke that was behind them? Kisame seemed to not see or hear anyone

Not the first time it happened either

His jonin mother and father didn't even notice it

Sharingan behind his head obv

itachi didnt do anything there other that screw with narutos head in a genjutsu, and use his failure , doubts and regrets against him.

 

[Zebstrika]

Here's scene that doesn't really make sense to me:

Itachi was able to isolate the real Naruto:

Even though Naruto sent several clones roaming around the forest:

Is "sheer coincidence" the only explanation for this?

AWWW WHAT A HERO. what a fluffy little angel

 

[LeSauce]

Didn't he also know that Sasuke had absorbed Orochimaru instead of kill him? Or did he later figure it out?

 

[Lana Del Taka]

Would Karin be a clairvoyant?
