Hmm if u look at the post i proved u wrong.weakened itachi> weakened oro. So itachi>oro. And who did nagato beat that was better than itach? Spaz

seriously? did you understand manga? nagato beat the great hanzo who give the title sannin to jiraiya, oro and tsunade. nagato killed jiraiya with ease. nagato beat 6tails naruto.nagato killed kakashi and all of konoha, you mean itachi is better than whole konoha? pathetic.


Not really...

People do overestimate him, but theres also ones who underestimate him.

And for the ones who are saying Itachi failed to kill Tobi, Oro, and Edo Madara that was plot no jutsu. If Tobi died manga ends, if Oro wouldn't come back this may have been the final arch Oro's return gives hope for another arch for Naruto (and I'm sure if Sasuke knew Oro was a live Itachi knew also, Itachi goal was to get Oro out of Sasuke, which had been done) and Edo Madara is by far the most entertaining character ATM.

Oro can have a showdown with Sasuke, or escape and lead to another arch after this war leaving a few other things unknown.

As far as I know Itachi has never been in a serious battle. Itachi VS Sasuke already told countless time that Itachi let Sasuke win.

plot affects everything, if it wasn't for plot naruto would be dead since day one. so stop blaming everything to plot.

itachi will also be long dead if it wasn't for plot. if he chose to be on the side of uchihas and didn't choose to massacre them, he'll be obliterated together with his clan.


That was blaze release not amatirasu. It controls preexisting flames thus making it allot easier to block since they are not as fast.

WTF is WRONG with this fanboys... they'll say everything just to make their itachi sounds godlike. well he is not and you are stupidly WRONG SIR.

blaze release IS amaterasu, infact its an optimized amaterasu. the only difference is that sasuke can control amaterasu's flames while itachi CAN'T. in this sense, sasuke's amaterasu > itachi's amaterasu. nuff said.


Yeah that's right, everyone who isn't an Edo has a limit, but on the other hand his stamina is underestimated, too. Itachi used a bunch of exhausting techniques then, against Sasuke. But somehow people ended up thinking that Itachi reaches his limit by using two, three Amaterasus, what is absolutely wrong. Every versus thread with him ends up with Itachis stamina which isn't even high enough to use two Amaterasu.

do you have evidence that itachi didn't reach his limits? the only time zetsu said that itachi's sickness is affecting him is when he wasn't able to dodge the rigid shuriken of sasuke. so stop ASSUMING he died because of his sickness. because if he did, we would see him cough blood before he faints but what happened is he just "facepalmed" the wall and faints. same thing that happened to kakashi and nagato when they ran out of chakra.

and if you value every comment of zetsu in that fight you should also believe in what zetsu said in this part:
You must be registered for see images

plus the fact that itachi's eyes was almost blind that moment, it clearly shows he reached his limits.

stamina/chakra is an issue for itachi, accept the fact fanboy. just go back to part 1 when he used amaterasu and tsukuyomi, I'll leave the research up to you.

I'd take your own advice:rolleyes: Aren't you the one who keeps preaching about Naruto not defeating Nagato if it wasn't for the plot:rolleyes: Yet want to come and feed me this crap. Hypocritical don't you think?

Itachi? Minato and Nagato are also on that list dear sir, these three are gods to the fanboys and capable of doing anything.

I know everything is driven by plot, nagato case was a little different than what you are saying because nagato and naruto fought 1on1 and we all saw how he was pinned down. but in itachi vs tobi or madara's case(just like what you are saying) we can't assume that he could kill this two.

well,I've seen more itachi fanboys than nagato and minato fanboys that says and entirely wrong statement like that one.

The circumstance will differ from battle to battle, Naruto and Nagato had a 1VS1, Tobi and Itachi actually didn't face each other. At the end despite you saying Nagato had Naruto pinned down doesn't change the plot, Nagato was defeated by Naruto, even Zetsu when he popped up to Tobi he stated the term defeated. As, I said Nagato lost to plot, Itachi failed to plot. And nor did I say Itachi would win VS Tobi/Madara.

I like the way characters Itach/Nagato/Minato have been portrayed. No, fanboy from either side will make me dislike either character I have my own opinion in VS thread, but it has come to the point were opinions don't matter anymore in VS threads, people will give Itachi/Nagato/Minato some next power up.

Itachi has a large fan base due to the mere factor that he has had more screen time and he is somewhat more involved in the story, than Nagato/Minato. It doesn't change the fact that all three fan base have their certain people who make entirely wrong statements.

Wow u must have made this page to be trolled. I look at every character objectively and I'm no fan boy of one or the other character, but there are just certain good characters. Itachi is the cream of the crop. You say the best itachi has beaten is a weakened oro, but what about when he blew oro out of the water when he tried to steal itachi's body. He was considered the strongest Sanin yet itachi defeated him even before their battle began. Nagato has openly said that between him and itachi, itachi was the stronger, so I dont kno where you get your argument from where we compare him to nagato, cause nagato himself thinks itachi higher. And itachi no doubt could defeat jiriyah if he could defeat pain. Comparing him to hashirama is a little extreme but not impossible. Kishi made itachi to have a counter to everything, and being able to find flaws in "flawless" jutsu. He literally pretty much brought himself back to life with the crows eye. Don't even get me started on the crows. I'm not sure how far it goes, but as far as I've seen it renders taijutsu completely useless, as he can just instantaneously turn into crows and turn back at will. I'm not sure I've ever even seen itachi get hit. Once. By anybody. (I skipped many chapters between the start of the war and pretty much after deidara died so there might have been one time, but that's only one) itachi as a character was made to meet the extremes that people set him at. The most crippling part of your argument is that excepting how sasuke turned out, itachi has never failed doing what he wants, he has never truly lost, and he comes out with a new jutsu every time it's convenient for him. Itachi himself is a plot no jutsu. But that doesn't mean you should hat hike for it.

I have no problem of saying nagato lost to naruto. I knew what happened and kishi justified that. I agree zetsu said nagato lost, same way as he said sasuke won against itachi.

of course versus threads wont end up on a conclusion unless other side will accept they lose the argument, which is hard because everyone wants to win in a debate. all we can do is gather as much evidence as possible that is shown in the manga.

first bold:lol reading a different manga? post the page pls before inventing stories.

2nd bold: his full fight that was shown is against sasuke, he was hit couple of times. and that's the only full fight he got when he was alive.

I don't care to read through 25 pages of flame but how exactly was Oro weakened when he fought Itachi...? He wasn't.....Itachi defeated him easily and chopped off his hand and thus Oro fled the akatsuki. Obviously he has been over hyped many a time over but he definitely is a very strong character. He is Pain and Tobi level and has a fair chance of defeating each of them.

I disagree Itachi just Kabuto who had Dragon SM and he could probably beat Naruto in SM as well.

Totally agree.

If I was to criticise Itachi though it would be about setting Saske on the path of revenge - seriously what was he thinking!?!

....A guy who was around Sage Mode Jiraiya's level. The most powerful guy he beat in a 1 vs 1 was a weakened Orochimaru. Stop comparing him to Nagato, Madara, Hashirama or even Sasuke. Seriously.

Silly OP, you can't criticize Itachi without knowing the rules within his infamous cult:

1st rule: You do not talk about Itachi in a negative light.
2nd rule: You DO NOT talk about Itachi in a negative light.
3rd rule: If someone fails to praise him, that person will be attacked by the entire fanbase(i.e. every fanatic)- will be forced to either change his/her ways or simply go away.
4th rule: The act of praying is necessary.
5th rule: Avoid common sense to better suit your argument (s).
6th rule: Deny, deny, deny.
7th rule: Flaming/spamming is encouraged as long as you live by Itachi’s guidelines.
8th rule: Lastly, it's impossible for Itachi to underestimated, plus any wavering will be severely punished.

Itachi's one of the strongest characters in the series, but I see him getting hyped all the way up to god-mode levels. It just gets ridiculous.

Maybe if he didn't have that illness he had, then yes, I believe he could be one of the strongest characters in the Narutoverse.

I do agree with you though; people need to stop claiming that he's the strongest character when he clearly isn't. He's my favorite character, but that won't change who's the strongest in my opinion....people just need to accept that their favorite characters aren't always number 1...

Itachi is not overrated, He is one of the best and would really rape Nagato imo, and he could have killed Sasuke, just didn't want to.. Hashi and Madara however = the death of the leaf's Itachi Uchiha
