Am i wrong? I mean Gai is the perfect ninja to take out itachi 8th gate not needed.

Some may say he needs 8th gate to get around susanoo blah blah but when you logically think about it he doesn't and here's why.....

That kills any use of susanoo. Tsukuyomi is also a non-factor as eye contact is required for you to fall for it and Gai has already found a work around here:

Just in case picture doesn't work here is the link:


That leaves Amaterasu, basic taijutsu(which itachi would be a complete idiot to challenge Gai with) Ninjutsu(katon & suiton) and shuriken jutsu which would easily be overpowered by Gai's gate attacks.

Amaterasu and better intellect is Itachi's only hope but TBH the pressure Gai puts on his opponents with speedy attacks will make it hard for itachi to come up with a effective counter. Though itachi is itachi and you cant count him out completely.

That concludes my thread on why Gai > Itachi mid to high diff simply because itachi doesn't posses the raw power and stamina to stand up to Gai who thrives in those categories.


Here's extra just for fun:

I believe firmly that Lord Gai has The Best chance to defeat Itachi but Yata Mirror blocks Taijutsu of ANY Kind and Totsuka seeals at the speed of sound(MangaFact I have evidence if you want) and one Gai Goes 8 Gates and he collides with Yata Mirror Gai will be demolished because the will hurt himself from the impact because just kicking Madara with the Night Moth broke his legs so Imagine Kicking Yata Mirror which can't be broken and Gai Has never seen also Yata can be activate faster than sound(Can prove that too)

It proves he can beat Itachi, but that doesn't make him outright better. There isn't always going to be reflective surfaces so his defense against Tsukuyomi isn't absolute. Plus, totsuka blade.

Both have the chance to beat one another depending on how the battle goes about.

They are not in same league.

And no finger fodder genjutsu or Tsukiyomi won't change anything.

Manga already proved that Gai >>>>> Itachi.
