Wrong. Don't try to favor a character here, my friend. You think you can change the truth? There are 3 ">" missing, you itachi fanboy.

The point about discussions is not changing people's opinions, it's proving them wrong. Either they'll accept it or not, it's up to them. But if one lacks arguments to prove a point, he is most likely wrong, no matter what.
When reaching this point, we get closer to the truth(the argument and idea that can't be disproved is most likely the truth).
That's the point.

I feel that's hard to determine given that he only used his final Susano'o with killing intent against Orochimaru and Nagato, neither of whom lasted more than a few moments. And even then, he seemed like was being pretty casual with his trumpcard. We know he can move and whatnot with Susano'o out, so he could've blitzed like he did against Bee for additional pressure if necessary.

He also has hyped mass genjutsu that we've never seen, so far-reaching and powerful that it's evidently able to have a huge impact on a world war. Combine that with his ridiculously hyped intellect and the fact that he's always holding back for some reason, and it's hard to really get a gauge on his real power. Like I said in the OP, the only people that can be said he truly wanted to eliminate were Orochimaru and Nagato, and neither was able to last long when Itachi used his best ninjutsu (final form with legendary items.)

You're using the words "could've" and "hyped". Stop that.

He truly wanted to eliminate Orochimaru and failed :cool:

I know. I've seen it. I stopped caring about it a long time ago. I disprove them, fi they lack arguments, I simply edn the debate.

Stated capabilities are acceptable. He wanted to remove Orochimaru from Sasuke and succeeded.

I'd say in akatsuki he ranks #2

Being a student of Obito

Who went around as Madara

Stronger than any form of Nagato by a good margin


Weaker than

Obito
Madara
Hashirama
Naruto
Sasuke
Tobimaru
Minato
Edo tensei users hiding at a distance (Orochimaru)
Maybe Hiruzen by hype <---doubt it

That's it by anyone who appeared in the manga excluding the sage/juubi too.

Everybody knows BM Minato is top tier.

But people overlook Itachi being able to control armies with genjutsu, or his godly artifacts.

That makes him more fun to discuss.

Probably the only thing he ever did well in his life.

Oh Look.. it turned into Orochimaru versus Itachi...

Who's dead again? Who's alive, stronger than ever and capable of controlling three [Debatable] Kages?!

You bretrayed genma. You should be ashmaed of having his amazing pic as an avatar. One ">" would be ok, 2, meh, but 3? Things just got out of control, and I had to step in.

If he had stamina and health to back up all his power he would of have been #1

Though everyone has a weakness, and unfortunately we never got to see Prime Itachi.

It is truly terrifying to think what he would of have been capable off.

Please. Itachi didn't give a **** about being alive and chose to go on to the afterlife willingly TWICE. Orochimaru was as dead as anyone and his revival is no more impressive than itachi being edo tensei'd.
