Kabuto just pierced him a new one...But did he really?

Itachi is currently using Izanami which is similar to Izanagi(which btw makes me think Itachi can use Izanagi) and it is said to determine the outcome of the fight. So my question is...

1: Is Itachi really dead now?

2: Is this Izanagi? (Him being impaled....)

3: Is this Izanami we are seeing? If so, why did this happen?

Any thoughts are welcome,frankly I find this fight a little dull compared to recent events...

1. He's an edo so theoretically yes.

2. Edo's repair, you could slightly see the skin on his face repairing itself in one panel.

3. Not sure, I don't even know if he's used it. Fact of the matter is I don't understand the technique at all yet.

Also I totally agree on the fight being dull, I was really let down. Kabuto seems stupidly OP while it seems like we don't get to see the best from the Uchiha brothers because they're trying not to kill him which, in all honesty, it seems like they couldn't do if they tried.

not dead yet, Sasuke's Amaterasu somehow stooped the attack mid-time.
Itachi is currently recuperating and has not used Izanami yet.

What I got from it was that Itachi used Izanami and it caused the stalagmites (?) to attack him. Kinda like it backfired on him. I know that I am way off but I need to read again so don't take my word for it. Although, if I remember correctly, Kabuto explained Izanami which I find perplexing.

Still confused. (._.)

A lot of people say he's an Edo so he can repair.

I believe that Edo's only repair when they are under the control of the master puppeteer and Itachi is now free. Kabuto will not repair him...maybe re-write him as he intends,but not repair with no reason.

Nope.. Though Technically he is already dead..
Kabuto was going to override that tech and make Itachi his puppet again but Sasuke's Amaterasu stopped him..

Itachi seems to have not used Izanami yet but the stalagmites attacking Itachi were caused by Kabuto's justu. His jutsu lets him put life into lifeless things like weapons, rocks, etc temporarily and use them to attack.

Disagree.

Itachi said that Izanami had already been started/prepared...thoughts?

I believe what we saw in manga 582 for example itachi being impaled and kabuto revealing about his life is izanami working it's magic, saying that isn't it funny how kabuto says he can't imagine himself dying especially being that izanami sounds like it could be the opposite of izanagi where instead of turning reality into an illusion for example the danzo vs sasuke battle sasuke was using techniques that should have killed danzo and he did die but then he didn't because whenever sasuke and karin thought danzo was dead he turned the reality of him being dead into an illusion basically faking his death, izanami is the exact opposite turning illusion into reality using imagination for example as we saw kabuto made the cave come alive impaling itachi in the process but itachi while using izanami wanted kabuto to think that it was him that got impaled when actually while it appeared that itachi was impaled outside of the izanami tech something might of happend to kabuto and as for kabuto revealing about his life that is itachi being a genius.

If you have no clue what i'm talking about think about it itachi didn't say to kabuto that he reminds him of his old self and that's why he'll lose for no reason no sir he said that because he wanted kabuto to feel as though he can confide in itachi and begin to talk about his life and why he is what he is now but what kabuto doesn't know is that itachi doesn't really give a **** about kabutos backstory or how he got his glasses all he's interested in is ending edo tensei and i believe he's setting up bait for kabuto making kabuto feel at ease while he reminises about his past and play about with kabutos mind causing him to feel mentally vulnerable causing kabuto to make a mistake and that mistake could be that he'll accidentally release edo tensei because not only do i reckon that itachi is using izanami but also tsukoyomi, why do i think this i hear you say well let me explain it basically i believe that without kabuto noticing itachi has placed kabuto under tsukoyomi which he's using to get the truth out of kabuto and kabuto doesn't know he's under a genjutsu because izanami is also activated basically while izanami is activated kabuto doesn't no he's under itachis genjutsu because he's distracted by what he thinks is going on because he believes that he really did impale itachi etc etc but little does he know that's what itachi wants him to believe and as for kabuto saying that nothing will work on him and he can't imagine himself loosing i'm afraid he couldn't be more wrong and itachi knows this and so i believe that once kabutos finished telling his sob story itachi will say something like this to kabuto " kabuto you said that nothing can work on you, that you can't imagine yourself loosing this battle well i would like to say that i've just imagined you loosing this battle and if you don't believe me you'll find out for yourself oh and kabuto before i forget thanks for releasing edo tensei i couldn't have done it without your help" then izanami would have ended and one of itachis eyes that used izanagi would have closed and kabuto will have a look on his face like he didn't know what hit him and will feel strange and then it will become obvious to him that he's been tricked into releasing edo tensei and not only that but he's severly injured and he will try to heal himself then sasuke will use amaterasu on him then kabuto will die and with kabuto finally out of the picture after underestimating the uchiha brothers itachi will use izanami on sasuke with his other eye and force sasuke to become good and help the alliance and just as itachis about to disappear he will give sasuke one final message which will probably be something like go do the right thing and help the alliance your friend and everyone else needs you, they may not forgive you right away but always remember naruto has never given up on you and never will sasuke you may not want to hear this but even though bloods thicker than water naruto uzumaki will be a better brother to you than i was he's so pure and cheerful and everyone he meets sees in naruto what i see in him and that is that he has determination not only that but he has one hell of a strong will, i guess that's what they call the will of fire, sasuke i want you to follow the right path, a path unlike mine, it may take time but i believe that everyone who hates you will start to like and trust you again once they find out that you played a part in ending the edo tensei technque sasuke i'm about to dissapear now but there is one more thing i like to say to you i've always loved you even while i was with akatsuki i never stopped thinking about you and i knew that you would supass me someday and after today being able to fight alongside you for the first time and seeing how accustomed you are to your new power i believe that you can go a long way and sasuke when you meet naruto don't be jealous of him even though he has become more powerful and become stronger remember this he's only become that powerful through his determination to save you now he needs you by his side because right now he's fighting a battle of his own which is his biggest battle yet and even though back up is on his way he still needs you sasuke you and naruto are like bread and butter, you can't have one without the other, you and naruto can teach the world something new through your bond and break the curse that has caused the senju and uchiha to battle from generation to generation, your bond is strong enough to break the cure so go sasuke make everyone proud go help naruto save the ninja world forget about the past, embrace the future fight for the now not for the past GOODBYE SASUKE UCHIHA, I'LL ALWAYS BE RIGHT BY YOUR SIDE IN SPIRIT.

Edo Tensei anyone? oO You know, that thing that makes every attack except sealing techniques useless against you? -_-
