Long forgotten plot hole?

[leeko]

While watching some old episodes of Naruto I recall Itachi using Tsukuyomi on Kakashi. I'm sure all of you remember this too. One thing that has confused me is that Itachi used his 3T to put Kakashi in his Tsukuyomi while in Shippuden Itachi ALWAYS had to activate his MS before putting someone in Tsukuyomi. I just don't understand. He also put Sasuke in Tsukuyomi in part one using his base Sharingan which makes no sense.

He put Kakashi in Tsukuyomi using his 3T in episode 82 of Naruto.

Is this a plot hole, has Masashi Kishimoto been inconsistent, or can this be answered with a logical explanation? If you think you have the answer, please let me know.​

when kakashi fought zabuza his sharingan spinned to show he was using it lol

Actually, you made a thread saying Tobi could have a MS. In the thread you posted a pic of Itachi using a Susano'o arm with his 3T activated. Maybe the same thing was in effect against Kakashi.

He didn't go that deep into MS at that time, just like how Hashirama's KKG was called Secret Earth Jutsu instead of Wood Style back then, it was changed in Shippuden with the coming of Yamato, I guess this is the same thing.

where was it stated about hashi?

Perhaps it's like Susano'o. You don't necessarily need MS activated. Maybe he can cast a weak version of Tsukiyomi using 3T?

where was it stated about hashi?

Episode 71 dubbed, around 9:50

yeah, I was thinking about that when I made this thread. It's just, if Itachi could do Tsukuyomi with his 3T in part 1, why not in Shippuden?

Id have to say its because Kishi didnt want to expand on MA at the time

Probably not plot hole, just sloppy for the editors side
