The problem with Yata Mirror is the fandom.

Facts:
The shield alongside its brother and sister are clearly of the highest tier in the Naruto universe.
Their origins are not known, could of existed before even Kaguya for all we know. Most people don't even know they exist and those that have heard of it just think it's some fairy tale legend.
It blocks all attacks, makes them meaningless. Kishi's own words.

I'm not sure why people have trouble accepting that the Yata Mirror is just that good, but honestly have begun to think it's because Itachi used it. I get the feeling that people are looking at Itachi himself and his raw-power and downplaying the Yata Mirror because of it... "It can't be that powerful because Itachi was using it." That's what it feels like. Sorry but the shield is that powerful. There's a reason Sasuke didn't get the weapons, Kishi would either have to retcon or Sasuke with his chakra reserves would be stupidly broken.

Lel, "Could have existed before Kaguya" Is that why the sage used them against Kaguya? And why there called the sage weapons?

Show me the panel where anyone calls them sage weapons, and I'll be happy to change it for you.

the problem with yaata mirror is that the Itachi fandom abuse Kishi not showing the limits of the mirror on panel in order to extrapolate the mirrorʻs hyperbole to its literal meaning.

Raikiri was stated to be able to cut through anything
A wind blade was stated to be unstoppable
Sandaime raikageʻs body was stated to be able to withstand any ninjutsu
Even neji said ʻchakra constructs become meaningless in front of my jyuukenʻ
a complete FRS was stated to have destructive power that canʻt be imagined.

Yaata is no different, it simply never got the chance to go up against something strong enough to break it as the greatest thing its been tested with was a couple of paper bombs.

LolIt's not the same. Yata simply is just that good. "All attacks lose their meaning." Anything that goes up against it loses it's effectiveness. There is nothing it can't block. These are facts from Kishimoto himself.

It's no coincidence that they are the only two ethereal, spirit weapons in existence. Even Hagoromo's tools aren't of that caliber.

This. The shield even cancels out attacks with similar no-limits hyperbole.

But all those hyperboles he listed are also facts from Kishimoto. :|

The fact that the Yata Mirror forces attacks to lose their meaning means they lose their hype and effectiveness, making them the same as any other attack.

Yata is said to only block/repel attacks and thats all its feats show. The attacks don't lose their meaning. A paper bomb is meant to explode, and they all exploded when sasuke attacked with them so they didn't lose their meaning at all, the attack was just blocked....:|

ʻall attacks lose their meaningʻ was attributed to susanoo itself, NOT yaata mirror. and nejiʻs jyuuken gets the hype that things made out of chakra lose their meaning in front of his jyuuken. So no, Yaata is no different, the only difference is the massive fanbase who desperately want itachiʻs hype to be true.

It would have been better if Kishi had shown Yata more, so that we could get a clear grasp of it's full potential/ limits.
OT: The whole "all attacks are meaningless" is dodgy at best. People inside NV have also said that all ninjutsu go back to So6P, but we know that isn't true. Therefore, any attack we have never seen being blocked by Yata, is possibly capable of overcoming it. I'm thinking of attacks like FRS in particular.
Also, people hating on Yata and Itachi's other abilities is all Itachibase's fault, or Kishi's for not truly showcasing them.
