Lmao Genjutsu wasent an Option because it was an Edo Tensei, the only Genjutsu that has been shown to be stronger than Edo tensei's controll is Shishui's Kokoamatsuki, which is stronger than Itachi's Genjutsu. But Genjutsu works on the real nagato since jiraiya proved that.
And the Yata Mirror isn't "ANY" shield, its said to repel all attacks, in the manga its been proven in the manga. . but shinra tense may still knock it back.
And Kishi most likely wanted to show us ANOTHER secret itachi has been hiding instead of him using Amaterasu, kishi showed us Yasaka No Matagama.
but Amaterasu should disenegrate it since its only rocks and chakra..
lol stfu
stop making excuses genjutsu is a genjutsu no matter how strong it is. just as you said sound genjutsu work on nagato why not visual genjutsu then if you think properly you should think also that koto amatsukami is a genjutsu,why would itachi's genjutsu will not work against edo tensei?lol
you're contradicting yourself dude. clearly shows how bias you are. so you FAIL with your assumptions..
bold part is the most funny assumption i ever read. WELL GUESS WHAT, maybe kishi wants to show us how dumb itachi is, why seek help from other people when he can do it by himself?? why not ask kishi yourself dumbass? lol
there is no prrof against genjutsu not working on nagato, and it says in the manga that susano can block any attack and shinra tensei is an attack. Itachi blocked kirin a really powerful attack why not shinra tensei.
its also the same way that there is no proof nagato can get caught by itachi's genjutsu. either way you're just assuming non sense things.
think of this kid, BANSHO TENIN is an attack. can you imagine how yata mirror can block it?
AND if yata mirror can block any attack.why not use it against chibaku tensei? what excuse can you think? you fail kid.
