In a way, Rinnegan Madara thought Itachi was invincible...

[Lilt]

Wow, now every major villain, bar none, has ridden the Itachi hype train:

• Orochimaru "he's an impossible dream to defeat"
• Obito "he never ceases to amaze me"
• Kabuto "you had the abilities to end the war"
• Madara "he's completely invincible"

Sure Why Not

 

[Jordanofthecloud]

what? Itachi Hype? uhhhh.... what?..

 

[Rigswattwa]

it was the white zetsu who always praise everyone
So actually Madara didn't say it himself

Incorrect. The black Zetsu was the one with knowledge of those items (made clearer in viz,) which makes sense, because black Zetsu has Madara's knowledge while White Zetsus are ignorant clones obsessed with poop.

isnt he dead? Gtfoh

 

[Lilt]

isnt he dead? Gtfoh

Hence "thought" being past tense. Or did that bit of English in the title blindside you?

 

[~Sky~]

I'm sure Madara in his current state wouldn't think along the lines of Black Zetsu, who is about 1/1000th of Madara's current power.

If that.

Nice find though.

It's more of a compliment to the weapons than anything. For years, people [rightfully] thought the databook and Zetsu saying they were a flawless defense and offense was a hyperbole and a statement born from ignorance, but now that we know that the source of the knowledge of those items was Uchiha Madara, their hype becomes undeniably more legitimate.

Yep, pretty much. + rep

 

[Lilt]

And what's more, given that Madara is the forefather of the Uchiha and probably the first Susano'o user, we can also conclude that the weapons are not an instrinsic part of Itachi's Susano'o, but were legitimate items that he used to supplement Susano'o with.

 

[Itachi Edo]

Madara's too arrogant to praise anyone first. Second Madara said that Black Zetsu is a weaker version of himself with only his knowledge and his will implemented inside of him.

Which is why he CONSTANTLY praises Hashirama, right?

 

[Simple Math]

sure.. i guess

And since Itachi has those over hyped weapons which have had their invincibility confirmed by the will and knowledge of Uchiha Madara, the bearer of those weapons is invincible.

 

[Dantee]

Epic find.

I concur imagine Ems Itachi..... He's another character they need to show some more backstory of.

How is Kakashi a side character?

Yes, and with his knowledge he deemed Itachi to be invincible.

 

[Takos]

Sorry, but you're very biased.
First of all, Madara's will is not the same as Madara's conciousness.
So no Madara's hype for Itachi. Let's be serious, Madara would laugh at Itachi's "invinsibility".
Obito said Itachi never ceased to amaze him but said that his trap was a big fail nevertheless.

And of course, there are countless side character (Kakashi, Deidara, etc.) that add to it.

You mean how Kakashi was later convinced he could take on Itachi with chunin level Naruto? Which was at the beginning of Part II?
As of Deidara, we have no idea how the battle would turn out after Deidara learned to counter standard genjutsu.
