Itachi The Smartest Character In The manga

[Devauzamaki]

Him and Shikamaru Are Like the Only One's Who Can Plan Way Ahead.

Itachi knew Sasuke Would eventually Run Into Tobi. So He Sealed Amateratsu In Sasuke's Left Eye and Programmed It 2 Activate When He Make's Eye Contact With Tobi.


Itachi Knew Sasuke Would Transplant His Eye's and Put KA In Naruto To Correspond To His MS When he Went Against Sasuke's EMS.


They Guy Truly Could See What Would Happen Before It Happen.

 

[Aznkidd]

Kishimoto is the smartest.

 

[Commander Axe]

Zetsu solos

 

[Akame]

itachi is probably most wise. Oro is probably most book smart.

 

[Bad Touch Yakushi]

I consider Oro, Shikaku & Shikamaru as smarter.

If you're talking planning skills than Hagoromo, Zetsu, Madara and even Obito have much more intricate plans in place that actually largely were successful.

Tobi even hyped the Naras. Itachi has great deception skills and was mature at a young age, maturity isn't the same as pure intelligence. He is written as manga jesus though so hell, why even argue haha

 

[Venomous Cobra]

Tobirama and oro

 

[-immortal-]

And the solo king

 

[Angelic.]

It's not that hard to plan like that

 

[Kingu]

It's not that hard to plan like that

Why you hating

 

[LightSo6p]

Wasn't it said shikamaru is the in the leaf

 

[Chie]

Well, there are different facets to intelligence.

The 4th databook mentioned that his wisdom is the best weapon in his arsenal, more than any mythical weapons/jutsu/etc. He has that category for himself.

As for other categories:

Jutsu Creation: Tobirama
Jutsu Knowledge: Orochimaru/Kabuto
Planning: Black Zetsu
IQ and strategy: Shikamaru/Shikaku

Anyone ever notice how the most intelligent characters in this series were all darker/more serious characters?

 

[NarutoX28]

Shikamaru, along with Itachi are likely the ones who are most capable of thinking ahead.

 

[~Ethereal~]

Yes, he makes it look so effortless.

 

[Tyris]

I didn't read...


Btw: Duh.

None of this deserves to be smartest ...it's all common sense

 

[Pakura]

Kishimoto is the smartest.

Kishimoto said he had trouble writing for Shikamaru, because unlike the character, he doesn't have an over 200 IQ. Tell us about it. All of Kishimoto's brilliance died in Part 1.
