So we all know how to fight an Uchiha who is capable of using genjutsu according to Maito Guy.

It even grants you the privilege of making your opponent think that everything around you is reality but simultaneously it is all a sham.

But what i'm indicating at is that there has been plenty of times where Uchihas could of soloed a great amount of opponents just by stabbing them with a kunai after they have made contact with the godlike eyes...

Like seriously....it's over when you are in something like this.





This right here

Why wouldn't he just solo Hashirama at that instance of a glance and end the Leaf village and gain revenge on Tobirama??? But instead he had to go all badass and give a imposing threat

Of course if you have a standard Mangekyou Sharingan, it will have side effects and your opponent will be free of your illusion eventually.

And yes I know they were only suppose to capture the target and not kill bit still this proof backs up my proposition.

I still don't know why it won't budge on Raikage in this panel like wtf???

He is literary standing there point blank and u telling me a genjutsu won't register on him???

But this panel showcases the supreme power of the eyes and how overpowered it can be utilized towards opponents as strong as bijuus...

Just that easy...

Once again he easily puts another victim in an illusion but Sasuke could of put the rest in the genjutsu as well...why would Kishimoto limit Sasuke to just one victim and not the rest of the flock???

I will finalize my point by leaving u with this....

Right here he could of soloed yet another victim to his best advantage with just a glance and concluded....
Forget the small talk, different dimension mind-fu** all day baby.

The Uchiha can counter it and if they were to cast it through the whole series (e.i Itachi), it would be a horrible development. He would be label as a c**t then.

Genjutsu fights aren't as exciting as ninjutsu and taijutsu fights.

Plus, the Uchiha have a +5 advantage by just having the sharingan and mangaekyou sharingan.


A genjutsu battle between say, Orochimaru and Kurenai would be impressive. Both rank high with genjutsu and neither has sharingan to cop-out of unbreakable mental manipulation like Uchiha's do.

Didn't read, but Genjutsu outclasses Taijutsu and Ninjutsu anyNinjutsu
The only people who don't think so are haters who don't try to understand how it works.
Preach....people will deny because Kishi didn't implement on the theory behind it.

My point exactly, Kishi doesn't know how to leave his superior characters on the tip of the spear...

Sasuke's Genjutsu is too OP that's why Kishi never let him use it
Preach....

The very fact that Itachi can create a genjutsu that mirrors the exact environment the fight is happening in is OP enough.

All he ever has to do is put them in a genjutsu that mimics the environment and stab them in the face in real life.

It's no coincidence that every Genjutsu Itachi intended to work has won the battle from move one.

Already knew that... But good on ya mate, Itachi's genjutsu is far superior to Sasuke's until he gains the rinnegan...

yeah genjutsu is op but whats the point of using genjutsu it's pretty boring i rather see them fight with taijutsu/ninjutsu
I prefer taijutsu and ninjutsu but my point is that 'genjutsu' is not used oftenly because Kishimoto knows that it could obliterate almost the entire roster...

Itachi wouldn't have killed Kakashi unless he ABSOLUTELY had to, hence why he only used Tsukuyomi and then dipset on outta there. After all, he always had his brother and the village's safety in his best interest. Raikage example there is no proof they are making eye contact however I do agree with the Hashi - Madara example but not the Naruto one. Nardo has supreme genjutsu resistance with Bijuu and RSM, why do you think Nardo was never attacked with genjutsu in their whole fight? I do agree genjutsu is broken as hell and under rated though.

Sidenote: Bee is a jin so he has genjutsu resistance, so his bijuu is able to break him out of alot of genjutsu since they have good cooperation.

Itachi used tsukiyomi to avoid a protracted fight with Kakashi. Kakashi's no lightweight and even Itachi recognized that should Kakashi would Kisame, then their mission would be a bust. So Itachi took down the strongest member, until Gai showed up.

Itachi's intent may not have been to kill but Kakashi, Gai, Kurenai and Asuma's intent was.

I wouldn't be so sure about that. With the bijuus captivated and partially sealed by chibaku tensei, Naruto is limited to their chakra and only basic strength to repel against a genjutsu.(an uchiha genjutsu at that one) Yes he still had the other half of Kurama to help, but that wouldn't be enough to fight off the rinnegan's power at that level.

Genjutsu is inherently overpowered. And there's the argument that it doesn't make things very interesting.

Could you imagine if every battle ended like this?

Would be a very short manga. :erm:

Wait so are you correcting me orrrr? What does Kakashi and co's intention to kill have to do with anything?

Providing greater context to the situation.

Itachi knows and Kisame notes what using the Mangekyou sharingan does to the users eyes and how much chakra is consumes. Itachi used it on Kakashi to end the fight as quickly as possible, at the cost of his eyesight. Imagine if Itachi didn't use tsukiyomi (3 secs) when he did.

Gai would've shown up. Itachi and Gai would've been outnumbered and outmatched and their plan (get intel on Naruto/let Danzo know he was still alive) would've been ruined. Itachi and Kisame are bingo book criminals. Meaning Kakashi and company wouldn't have pulled their punches in the fight.
