You could argue the same of Naruto via his usage of Senjutsu, yet he still wastes chakra in the use of regular jutsu like no one else.

Besides, isn't Sasuke's use of natural chakra via his cursed seal augmented by Juugo?

I'm not saying I'm right and you're all wrong, it's just my head-canon, tt's how I percieved it reading the manga and in the anime *shrug*. I don't have (or plan to) have evidence to argue either way.

Sort of true, although stamina and chakra are very related to each other since stamina represents the physical energy aspect of chakra, which is both made of physical energy (stamina) and spiritual energy (most likely whatever the tree had).

His stamina was affected because he was sick, thus affecting his usage of chakra.

He was handling Senjutsu chakra himself. Naruto's Chakra Control is far inferior to Sasuke's by canon manga. So yeah, he can waste chakra all he wants.

Yeah I know, was just addressing the first part of stamina not equaling chakra. It should be obvious that a healthy Itachi would be better than sick Itachi in practically every category Lol

Itachi at 5 years old could use the Katon jutsu.

Notice how Sasuke still wasn't at Itachi's level:
You must be registered for see images

Even Genin's should not have enough chakra to use that jutsu:
You must be registered for see images

And yet five year old Itachi could use it? Simple conclusion, Itachi does have a lot of chakra.

As the OP explained, there is a difference between stamina and chakra.

What's funny is that the dude that's in IB is talking shit to op, in a thread about Itachi.
Ot: great read. Whoever thinks Itachi had a small reserve is obviously fallacious.

Great thread.

two things though:

1. I remember that fire ball was deemed impossible for sasuke only due to his age. i.e. his chakra pool at that age shouldn't have been enough for that jutsu. But for all we know chakra pool grows with time. Nonetheless Itachi still managed to produce a continuous fire ball that almost stalemated sasuke's CM enhanced version, which is pretty impressive.

2. When the shadow clone goes "poof", shouldn't the remaining chakra in that clone return to the original? or does that only apply when the original actively disperse the clone jutsu?
Only when the original cancels it. This Clone was destroyed.

He managed to spam those jutsus because of the potency of his chakra not the amounts. He never had sufficient amounts to get used to the Mangekyo that's why Sasuke was a better candidate for EMS. Itachi had less chakra than MS Sasuke, KCM Naruto still shits on him.

There is no potency of chakra its just the amount you have and all uchiha chakra pools are higher than average
