when i read about amatrasu in naruto base( justus ) i found it short range jutsu

and i noted that when sasuke wanted to use amatrasu on danzu who was flying that moment and sasuke was in susano
he jumped to hit him with amatrasu like he can't do this while he still stand on the ground
i just ask ,what is your opinion

No, its really an all-range jutsu. It also can serve defensive purposes.

Its not short range but the closer you are the better the chance to hit the enemy I guess

There isnt much to say. The flames materialize on whatever the eye is focusing on. That could be a shinobi 20 feet away or a shinobi 100 yards away. And Weve already seen Sasuke use it for defensive purposes on multiple occasions so thats pretty self-explanatory.

Only Sasuke can use it as a defense when also using Susanoo since he is the only one that can manipulate the flames
Yes but he has also spread the flames on the ground to stop an advancing Kabuto so Itachi could probably do the same as well.

I believe the databook said the max range someone can set Amaterasu to on hi own is 10 or 20 meters, so yeah, about short-mid range jutsu.

Actually, Itachi can't since Sasuke used Blaze Release to spread it.

Pretty much this
Sasuke is the only one with the power to control the flames once spread

Blaze release is accessible to Sasuke only... The chain goes like this;

Itachi is well versed in Tsukuyomi
Sasuke is well versed in Amaterasu
Madara is well versed in Susano'o
Obito has his own jutsu

If he chose to sweep it across the ground with his vision it would have the same effect. This may be unlikely due to his sub-par chakra levels but it is technically a possibility.

When Sasuke shot Bee with Amaterasu it proved to me it's long range

That's not the sams method Sasuke used, which was my point, but yeah, that'd have the same effect I guess.

That wasn't long range.

Yes it is, or rather, it loses is speed after it travels any farther than a short distance, making it easier for someone to dodge it at long range. In order for it to be effective, the person needs to be close up so that they cant escape their sight.

whether kakashi's kamui or amatrasu both of them appear with eye but there are deference ,when A avoid amatrasu ,it moved after that and wouldn't appear on other point ,but didra when he was avoiding kakashi's kamui as he wasn't good in kamui at that time the kamui's black hole appeared on clouds which was behind didra
