Time and time again I see Itachi's 'questionable' chakra capacity being brought up in hopes of downplaying the GOAT [Greatest of All Time] that is Itachi Uchiha. For the simple reason that Itachi recieved a 2.5/5 in this category in addition to his illness, many have concluded that this is a major flaw and something that can easily be exploited by other combatants. Man, is this quite the fallacy. My goal with this thread is to accurately and correctly exploit the capacity of Itachi's chakra reserves.


*With a 2.5 out of 5 in stamina [According to the DB]
*With an illness that undoubtedly hinders his endurace


I present to you; the chakra capacity of Uchiha Itachi.

  • Before his battle with Sasuke Itachi sent out two Karasu Bunshins [Crow Clones] to meet both Sasuke and Naruto [ ]-[ ]

  • Itachi, not taking Sasuke serious yet, used genjutsu three times in a row as the fight commensed [ ]-[ ]- ]

  • Itachi then used another Karasu Bunshin [ ], followed by a shunshin blitz [ ]

  • Used one his chakra taxing MS techniques, Tsukiyomi [ ]

  • Used the Katon: Gōkakyū no Jutsu [Fire Release: Grand Fireball technique] not once, but twice in a row [ ]-[ ]

  • Itachi then proceeded to use his second MS technique, Amaterasu [ ] to only follow back up with using it again, in quite an alarming succession [ ] which practically lit up the entire Uchiha hideout [ ].

  • Shortly after straining himself by using Amaterasu twice in a row, Itachi is forced to throw up his third and final MS technique, susano'o, in order to protect himself from the destructive power of Sasukes' kirin [ ]

  • Itachi decided to throw up the final version of his susano'o armed with the two legendary weapons [ ] and then proceeded to battle Orochimaru's biggest transformation, Hydra, and sealed it away [ ]. Overall, Itachi had his susano'o activated for more then an entire chapter before collapsing; which should stand for more or less 4-5 minutes.

  • And to top it all off, while Itachi had already overly exhausted himself, he still managed to use a transcription seal [fuinjutsu] and sealed away one last Amaterasu within Sasuke [ ]-[ ]-[ ]



So just the quick rundown:

While being sick to the point that he was surviving on sheer willpower; Itachi was able to use 2 Karasu Bunshins and sent them to Sasuke and Naruto before Sasuke reached the hideout; he then used genjutsu 3 times against Sasuke; used another Karasu Bunshin; then Tsukuyomi; proceeded to use Katon: Gōkakyū no Jutsu twice; used Amaterasu twice; kept a full Susano'o up for like 5 minutes (Which isn't bad considering the amount of Jutsu he has used and the fact he was supposed to be dead if it weren't for his willpower); planted another Amaterasu into Sasuke; and even outlasted Sasuke given his chakra taxing MS techniques.

Thanks for reading.​

Karasu bunshins do not take a lot of chakra as said [ ] so i dont know why you would list it as a stamina feat

that being said itachi's bad stamina can indeed be exploited, he uses one MS jutsu, he falls to the ground which creates an opening, most ninjas need only such small openings

You forgot about Itachi putting out Amaterasu to save Sasukes eyes(apparently) and using Transcription seal:Amaterasu on Sasuke with his final touch as a safeguard for Tobi. Itachi outlasted Sasuke!

Sure

Any clone takes 50 % of your chakra, considering this uses crows as a medium, it is less, but wouldn't be any small number like you're implying.

As for OP , you also forgot about his use of transcription seal, which is fuinjutsu, and one more Ameterasu (Sealed)

Wow a thread from a new member that has scans and manga evidence :0 I didn't know these existed. Some fair points well made.

Itachi did spam that Amaterasu pretty hard when he was trying to hit Sasuke with it. If he had used it more carefully, things could have gone a lot different in that fight.

Still, like End of Days said, that moment where he's coughing up blood could be taken advantage of very easily by most ninja with fast attack speed, especially ftg/kamui users. Itachi's AIDS definitely affect him. But I agree he deserves higher than 2.5 in stamina

You will convince none of these idiots. All deniers use sick, dying itachi as their argument. You're just wasting your time.

He fell to the ground because of the disease, not because of stamina, or ms use. Using MS doesn't make you cough. or cough blood.

Correct me if Iam wrong but as far as I know clones chakra'll return to original after being dispelled since Itachi didn't use any jutsu's with his clones, it shouldn't cost him much chakra.

OT:Thanks for the thread.

Holllly shit, can't believe I forgot about Itachi planting amaterasu into Sasuke; that's what I get for rushing. Thanks guys. Smh, I feel like I already failed here.

Implying that it doesn't use any of his chakra...? Of course it is a stamina feat. The DB says it uses less then a Kage Bunshin [50% of available chakra] so how do you translate this into it not requiring a lot of chakra. Sasuke and his sharingan wasn't even able to distinguish the real Itachi from the Karasu clone, much like how any Dojutsu wouldn't be able to distinguish a Kage Bunshin from the original due to it evenly distributing chakra among the original and the clones.

As for your other scan, that was due to his illness. Itachi displayed no such sign of repercussion from using Tsukiyomi back in part one [ ]

The Greatest of All time and Itachi doesnt fit well.

Itachi fits the mold better then Minato though :)

Itachi's clones used genjutsu on both Naruto and Sasuke. Not quite sure if the chakra returns back to the user, however. And thank you.

I agree i think its time he gets bumped up to a 3 in stamina. While his stamina isnt pitiful, if he attempts to use 1 or 2 MS techniques and fails then that fight is pretty much over. He made it clear his limit isnt very high when it comes to eye techniques. You cant have powers as powerful as tsknuomi without serious drawbacks.

I think a 3.5 is a little more appropriate given all his feats while harboring a terminal illness. And that draw back he displayed while fighting Sasuke was mainly due to his sickness. A "healthy" Itachi back in part one should no such repercussion after using Tsukiyomi [ ]

Part one Itachi wasn't sick
