@Blaze Release: By surpass, I mean is he stronger than him now and can he win against him now, thats what I mean by surpass.
If you define strength by the power of your techniques, then its close. Sasuke's most powerful techniques are his uchiha based techniques and kirin and itachi still has the edge with these abilities. If by strength you mean overall therefore a blend of everything then no, sasuke is still lacking. Itachi has been shown to be a master combatant who uses his abilities to the fullest. Sasuke recent spamming ways, though he was the chakra advantage could make him run out before itachi. Sure he has more however when the person you face, knows not only when to use his technique's but also an expert at using these technique's with minimum chakra decrease he can outlast sasuke. May i also say that what is the use of having higher stamina when you can lose before your opponent runs out, both deidora/orochimaru have a higher stamina rating than itachi, but what good did that make when they lost before itachi run out.
Who would win in a fight, well due to both having similar abilities they cancel each other out, sasuke might have the edge though but at the same time he is lacking. In his recent fights, he has put himself in danger at the expense of getting the better of his opponents and has suffered unnecessary injuries in the process a fighting style that is the opposite of itachi's but at the same time if he tries this strategy against itachi he would end up worse off because there are certain opponents whom will always find the slightest of weaknesses and take advantage of them, if the opponent was to give/demonstrate these weaknesses he will surely use them against him. Anyway surely this fight cannot be analysed because ems sasuke cannot exist if its ms itachi, because its itachi's eyes that grants him ems but also we see never say itachi intent to kill which is still a mystery
After reading a lot of the comments I'm starting to think this is or is becoming a vs thread
Im thinking the same. Never liked vs threads when these two are involved because they are both my boys xd.
thats my boy
yeah exactly
sofar Itachi > sasuke
Think you are mistaken by what im trying to say
i see you on other threads saying that using the kabuto fight is useless against sasuke when it wasit his fight now you use it also sasuke could have the abilities of edo madara and would still see itachi as a monster in battle that was a very useless statement and also smarts is no winner this fight or exp when they both have mostly all the same abilities this comes down to stamina witch sasuke has the edge itachi only outlasted sasuke because he wasit forced to use amaterasu & susanoo so quick in a fight with current sasuke he would need susanoo on 24/7 because sasuke amaterasu spamming sasuke>itachi med diff
read above
Its true ive said that the kabuto isnt a good way to anaylse ems sasuke, however this is when kabuto himself is involved. Stamina helps but who said you cannot be beaten before your opponent runs out of chakra, not that im contributing to a vs thread of any kind. Sasuke has however subtle said himself that he hasnt surpassed itachi when he labelled him perfect

If both were given the same opponents fight im certain that if both were to defeat their opponent itachi would come out with less damage than sasuke because he is simple the much much better combatant. Though that is in the past ill give you an example. Itachi defeats orochimaru at the age of 12 with genjutsu even before orochimaru would get him in fushi tensei within a minute. Sasuke at 16 was poisoned, but also orochimaru managed to get him in this technique (fushi tensei) before sasuke reversed it on him. Another example is deidora. Itachi defeats him in a minute. Deidora took sasuke to high difficulty and he sustained great injuries. Both examples were in the past, however im trying to tell you that, sasuke even now is still lacking and isnt close to itachi's combat feats. Or to put it simple, if we were to take itachi out of the nagato scenario and implement ems sasuke, i believe its fair to say that both bee and naruto would've end up captured, with sasuke defeated
I try to distant myself from this topic but also on here altogether and try to ignore people who quote me in case it comes down to a long discussion that im not interested. To end on this note the younger brother believes that the eye transplant of his older brother is making him stronger. Some might say thats because he now has ems, however i believe that though this true, its only half true. What im saying is that itachi's true power, itself is adding to sasuke's. Itachi's eyes is being used as a power up for sasuke;
