Does Itachi stomp? VS section, lemme hear your views on this topic please. I side with Neji and I agree it can go either way. Stomp? Don't buy that shit.

You are approaching tier 4.

 

[Worm]

Itachi medium difficulty at best.

Finally a human soul....Why exactly?

 

[Great Master Minato]

Genjutsu GG?

 

[Apêx1]

Itachi low diffs him. No way will it approach mid diff at all. Itachi can literally shunshin blitz his ass.

Don't really see how Neji manages to tag Itachi considering how capable the latter is with Genjutsu alongside his extremely fast Shunshin which should be sufficient to escape any attempts at attack from Neji. I could see Itachi ending this fight with Ephemeral which is not really limited to a finger as Itachi has stated before. ''If I have only one finger, that is enough.'' <- The context he uses the word ''finger'' in implies Itachi could use Ephemeral with any body part he wishes to use it with, hence why he states that just having one finger is enough. Neji doesn't really have knowledge of this and I see him getting caught due to it.

I mean, if we're talking about pure speed, this could easily end with a clone blitzing close to him and then blowing up before he could react. Itachi should be aware of Byakugan's powers and that they most likely come with a weakness. He could use clones along side his kunai usage - i.e. bouncing them off of each other and them coming at Neji from various directions - and crow summonings to replicate what the spider guy who's name escapes me did against Neji with spiders when he figured out his blindspot. Attacks from all sides, essentially.

Honestly? Itachi low diff.

The starting distance is irrelevant. 3T Itachi beats Neji mid diff.

Neji isn't getting blitzed with his reaction feats and striking speed he can land a mutual strike in Cqc. A genjutsu blitz can be countered by activating Byakugan and shutting his eyes so he sees Itachi's chakra network and points even with his eyes closed. However Itachi willhave no difficulty reaching a distance and using crow clones and katon to make an opening, plus Neji can't fight the whole battle with his eyes closed.

So when Sasuke failed to dodge, Neji can? So when Itachi is clearly faster and has literally precognition they are at equal grounds on Taijutsu?

And since when has shutting down eyes even worked as a counter? Doubt it works, but Itachi still has ways to put one in genjutsu without eye contact at all.

 

[Bogard]

Honestly, what stops Itachi to genjutsu+kunai to the throat blitz?

 

[DMT]

Zabuza solos

Can you link me to the page where this happened? And what makes Sasukes reactions so much superior to Nejis?

Shutting down eyes is a counter, definitely not a very effective one, but a counter to defend against an initial genjutsu blitz. And lol no, all of Itachi's genjutsu works through eyesight. Especially the finger genjutsu, you have to be looking at the finger. Manga explains that genjutsu works through the senses.

Probably the fact that Sasuke literally has better precognition and is faster and has better feats? Let's not go there.

1. Where is it stated he needs to look at the finger? Itachi trapped Naruto again and he was not looking at his finger nor eyes.

2. Where is it stated that you need one of the five senses to put someone in genjutsu? Itachi has literally stated that there is one that requires none of the five senses, which is Izanami.

Neji obviously has the Byakugan. He can see through genjutsu. Still, though, Itachi low-diffs.
