itachi is fully aware that he screwd up with sasuke. he knows that he failed which is why he doesnt even want to see sasuke right now. he had plans for sasuke and sasuke threw it in his face.

plus. only a genius can perfectly disguise his true intentions for YEARS without ANYONE finding out the truth. you also gotta give him cred for being able to infiltrate and spy on the akatsuki without them finding out either. that takes some smarts
i wouldnt call that genius. thats deception.

I dont want to comment on itachi personal conviction but as a shinobi he is the real deal and if you dont think so look up what ninjas are and the history of them its not about holding hands and skipping in the park its life and death struggle undercover spy work Anbu Intel!!!!!

I dunno, I don't blame Itachi for his messed up plan, I blame Kishi for trying to make such a convoluted story, I kinda do think half of what he did was like wtf, on one hand he's so amazing he can kill everyone, but then on the other hand, he tells his brother to hate him and basically turns him psycho, and in the end he's a hero.

Truth be told I'dve liked Itachi's character more if he was pure villain, the whole double agent thing seems stupid, but I'm pretty sure alot of the story gets lost in translation, but it all seems pointless, if he was so good, than why didn't you just take out half of the akatsuki and join back with the leaf?

I mean I'm sure anybody below Kisame he could've offed and then just left, but he even helped capture Bijuu, in all actuality that does seem a little dumb, but thats as far as from what I can tell on the whole double agent deal, should anyone know why he did what he did please feel free to fill in the gaps

i agree but i think kishi was trying to place in the essence of what makes a ninja with the spy element and secrecy of the story. In real life ninja hardly engaged in battle they were use more as watchers from the in an outside of thing if it was just battles and no spying i think it wouldnt be much of a story of ninjas Anbu Intel!!!!!!

Nagato did not kill his own he lashed out at the ones that killed his own his problem was there was not such thing as enough revenge he became a mad dog. Itachi how ever just became a retard that killed his own for wanting equal rights. Yea that real genius there. Like is said he is only a genius when it comes to combat.

Omfg people still don't get what this thread is about. I AM NOT INSULTING ITACHI'S COMBAT SKILLS. yet you all keep bringing that up. There is more to him than his skills in battle. That is the point I'm trying to get across.

Itachi is a genius. The leaf had plenty of enemies and a civil war with the uchihas would have made them weaker and more vulnerable to all of them. The civil war causes a war of nations (orochimarus goal) that would create a greater chance for oro to destroy the village and madara have a better chance at collecting the 9tails. And pay close attention to the cuz if it werent for narutos competiveness with sasuke, Itachis plan would have succeeded.




@nd post

I sometimes honestly think Kishi is making this up as he goes along, I do not think that when he was doing the original naruto show, half of the plot that is shippuden was even thought of, that's why it sometimes seems like a bunch of little and sometimes big holes in the plot, especially with this uchiha fiasco, you coulda asked him wtf is going on two years ago, and he'dve look at you and shrugged like:shrug:, that's what I think

I am thankful to those that actually caught what I said in my first post and are responding to it(itachi as a whole) and not bringing up half of itachi(battle itachi).
