Destroyed Itachi's Susanoo (nearly killing him in the process), and damn near vaporised a whole damn mountain. I'd say it's pretty damn strong. Probably too OP so Kishi hasn't let Sasuke use it again.

I don't think it could destroy Hashirama's Shin Sūsenju. That thing is a titan that dwarfs mountains and bijū.

We don't know what though

Character has a super shield that can supposedly defend against any jutsu but doesn't use it against super jutsu that can blast away an entire mountain?

Please. Kishimoto doesn't have to spoon feed you everything, does he?

So, I understand that Kirin did SOME sort of damage to a hollow mountain or hill or whatever, but can't the highly condensed buddha statue just block it? I mean, THAT many hands should withstand the attack and leave a decent amount of hands left for attacks. If that's the case, then the thing can most likely defeat susanoo too. Raikage nearly broke the ribcage with his hand, and Tsunade nearly broke Madara's ribcage with her foot, maybe even current Sakura can crack a susanoo if she got close enough, therefore I'm almost confident that buddha thing under Sage Mode Hashirama can crumble it (again, just my opinion)

what? lol... it's obvious that raiton > wood.

The same wood that tanked a Bijuudama?
The same wood that can surpress the Kyuubi?
The same wood that can absorb chakra?
The same wood that broke PS?
Yeah...No.

So you telling me that he didn't use yata mirror on Kirin but use Yata mirror for a mere ass katana and some kunai? naww son, Itachi pulled out that godly Yata mirror and protected himself from Kirin. Since that Yata Mirror ain't 360 degree protecting him, he got caught with some of the aftermath of Kirin!

Of course he didn't use Yata to tank it.
If he did, the attack would have been neutralized.

Kirin destroyed the hollowed out mountain which was itachi foothold and feel that why he was laying on the floor. Yata tanked the attack. This is what i believed happened or he used v3 susanoo and it got destroyed leaving itachi with little damage.

small hill?

Small hill, you can see the hideout. Same size as the other hills in the scan you shared.

In your scan, the debris were scattered, that's why it looks like the area of effect was much bigger.

we're talking about elements and you're talking about the "feats" that mokuton did? god please give me a ton of patient.

anyway , go check what yamato told naruto when he was training to master Rasenshuriken , when they were both alone... or just go check a picture of the elements... i'm lazy , so...

I think Yata Mirror came into play but Kirin is a confirmed mountain buster and the attack is near instant. Pretty solid attack but had to be nerfed because plot.

The problem with Kirin is that it needs a fairly elaborate setup, and Sasuke doesn't typically use clones to conserve chakra, so the characters that are a big enough threat for him to resort to using Kirin, probably have their own ways of stopping him from using it.

Weaker than one of Sakura or Tsunade's punches.

Listen to yourself
So because Raiton> Doton, you're saying that Raiton is superior to Mokuton because one of its components is Doton?
Its already been stated that 2 elements combined> One element, even if it has an advantage over one of them.
Not to mention, earth and wood have completely different properties.

Or he tanked it with his rib cage and took minimal damage his whole akatsuki jacket was destroyed so he must have been hit from all directions

And his cloth?

What about his coat
