Itachi's Amaterasu-Trap SHOULD Have worked (PNJ stopped it)

[Lilt]

People don't seem to realize what happened, so here's yet another illuminating Itachi-thread (by the ultimate WANKA)

The trigger was Obito's (Kamui) Sharingan.

Amaterasu burns whatever point the eye is looking at:

So that's where the flame should have landed.

But Sasuke averted his gaze at the last moment, hitting Obito in the shoulder.

So if that Amaterasu HAD landed on the eye (as designed) and melted Obito's face.

(Before Obito could even activate Kamui... which can be activated faster than he can move)

He'd be done.

Why didn't this happen?

Just by chance. Sasuke moved his eye.

And hit Obito's Zetsu-portion (replaceable, as seen against Torune/Minato.)

Also, while I'm on Itachi's planning: Kotoamatsukami.

It didn't fail. It would have worked on Sasuke.

But Itachi improvised and used it better.

This rape would have happened twice as hard if he didn't improvise. (Naruto/Bee soul-RAPED.)

Itachi still managed to get Sasuke off the path of revenge (toward enlightenment)

Itachi also (probably) converted fricking haxxed out Kabuto

Itachi also (maybe??) influenced Orochimaru (who'd been watching in Kabuto) away from trashing Konoha

Or Obito simply dodged like a boss xd

So Itachi doesn't solo?

 

[Midday]

Itachi not soloing a superior opponent from his grave = plot no jutsu?

Obito is simply too good to get killed by a trap like that.

 

[Aertes]

Ooooooorrrr amaterasu puts much presure in the eye and makes it bleed and Obito realised it and managed to dodge it???
No PNJ for Itachi this time,sorry.

Obito thinks he's pretty lucky lol.

And really, the trap was ingenious.

We've never seen any sort of fūindōjutsu trigger mechanism like that. Even Obito didn't know how it was done.

He clearly didn't move. He turned his head to the right, because that's where the flame spawned.

Also, he activates KAMUI faster than he can move. And since he didn't, then he certainly didn't move.

 

[Frankenstein]

If moving worked why should he use Kamui? After all he is intangible.

 

[VongolaX]

Even i don't think that highly of itachi lol

 

[Lilt]

If moving worked why should he use Kamui? After all he is intangible.

Becuase moving didn't work... he had to use Izanagi (his secret) to escape the flames.

Had he gone intangible, the flames never would have hit him.

It's what he always does when he's about to be hit. (the Rasenshuriken)

So you're essentially arguing that he purposefully tanked Amaterasu.

So he could use Izanagi,

Instead of accepting my much more logical/realistic layout.

 

[rollin]

That's not plot no jutsu

 

[Lilt]

That's not plot no jutsu

It kind of is. The plan should have logically succeeded.

(Amaterasu activates, Obito's surprised, hits Obito in the eye, burns face, done.)

But it failed because of freak-chance. (Sasuke averts eye, Ama hits Obito in the shoulder, Obito uses Izanagi.)

Because it being successful would have stopped the plot development.

And a newly introduced villain would never take up the limelight.

Re: Itachi's Amaterasu-Trap SHOULD Have worked (And Koto worked BETTER))

its possible, that if landed on his face, he couldve kamuied in time. But good anaylsis regardless

 

[TouchMyMangos]

it failed because it was crap, no other reason. we're not bothered about fanboy fueled arguments

 

[KidGamer65]

PNJ is your excuse? If Obito used Izanagi to avoid the flames when they hit his shoulder he would have just used it if it his face anyway, either way this plan failed.

I don't understand how this is PNJ.It was a poor desinged trap that had many variables that could have gone wrong,as it did.
Sadly due to fanboys like you I have lost a great amount of respect and love I had to Itachi as a character.

 

[EliteKakashi]

And Naruto should have used an odoma rasengan to just obliterate Obito.

And instead of punching him in the stomach, Kakashi should have just cut his head off with Raikiri.

There's a lot of "should have" or "instead of's" in this manga, and really every manga out there. Nothing we can do about it.

.It was a poor desinged trap that had many variables that could have gone wrong,as it did.

Poor designed? Ive never seen another character in the manga do such a thing with fuinjutsu... Obito even admitted it may have worked if itachi knew some other unknown thing about him.. "luckily i managed to hide secrets from him, otherwise i'd be dead right now"
Based on what he knew, that trap would have worked on almost anyone
But you can't predict for the unknown can't you

Oh wait, he did, kotoamatsuki was for if it failed.

 

[hueyfreeman23]

actually it is pnj that obito survived but not in the way u said(to a certain extent) because logically speaking the amaterasu hit obito forcing him to kamui(intangible) but based on how it works kamui wouldve just transported his body to the other dimension but since the flames were already on him the flames shouldve followed to the dimension he most likely didnt izanagi because he was never shown to implant another sharingan so we can only speculate on that but is most likely false because they showed him implanting another eye after konan so why not show him implanting this one. so imo it is pnj he survived even though itachi is my 2nd or 3rd favorite after minato

 

[Lilt]

PNJ is your excuse? If Obito used Izanagi to avoid the flames when they hit his shoulder he would have just used it if it his face anyway, either way this plan failed.

If the eye was damaged (from his face being on fire) Izanagi would not be accessible.

Somebody else already covered why this is a foolish opinion.
