What's not debateable is the fact that Kakashi has NEVER started out with Kamui and has never even thought about starting out with it against Itachi, not even once. Again, that fact remains.

Kakashi did not even know he possessed the Mangekyo in his first fight with Itachi, and could not properly aim or maintain it by the second time he fought against Itachi, nor have the chakra to spam it. None of those factors exist here. Here he knows exactly what Itachi is capable of as per the intel specified and can Kamui Itachi before Itachi can hit him with Amaterasu or Genjutsu, and he has no reason not to seeing that now he can aim and maintain Kamui very quickly without significant drawbacks, or at the very least, not with the same degree of drawback Itachi gets from using his Mangekyo Techniques[ ][ ][ ][ ].

Strawman. Where did I deny Amaterasu not being usable over 15 meters?

When has Itachi used Amaterasu immediately? He didn't use it against Kakashi in Part I. He didn't even use it against Jiraiya in Part I until he had to flee from the Frog Stomach. He didn't use it immediately against Hebi Sasuke, only using it after a lengthy exchange. He didn't even use it immediately as an Edo Tensei with unlimited chakra (he fought with Killer Bee and Naruto in CQC, used a Katon, standard Genjutsu, threw some shuriken), and even if he did use it instantly as an Edo (which he didn't), it would be due to the fact he didn't have to worry about chakra depletion.

Kakashi used Kamui immediately against Deidara. He used it immediately against Obito. He used it immediately against Gedo Mazo. He used it immediately upon the appearance of Jinchuuriki Madara.

What you continuously fail to take into account:

(1) Kakashi has full knowledge here. This changes a fighter's entire approach to battle.
(2) Kakashi can actually aim Kamui with high accuracy now. He isn't going to miss like in Deidara's battle.
(3) Kakashi can spam Kamui more than Itachi can use his Mangekyo techniques, if speaking strictly feat-wise. He does not need to be as conservative with it as he was back when using one Kamui was a big deal to his chakra pool.

With all three points above, of course Kakashi will "suddenly have a change of heart."

The second he broke out of Edo Tensei (and was in control of his movements) he used it. He used it immediately. Him not using it while he was under ET is irrelevant because his own choices of attacks weren't his own. They were Kabuto's.

Kakashi didn't use it immediately against Deidara. He didn't use it immediately against Obito. He didn't use it immediately against the Gedo Mazo.

1. If Itachi has full knowledge as well he can simply shunshin like this above him and nail him with an Ama.
2. He won't get the chance to use it.
3. Come again?

Precog, sufficient speed feats, crows blocking Kakashi's vision as well as him confusing a bunshin for the real Itachi, and Itachi having him and mixing himself with his clones provides a perfect opportunity for him to hit him with Amaterasu. Let's say Kakashi does use Kamui off the bat. Itachi has been able to weave signs for clones faster than even a Sharingan eye can perceive. People have saw Kamui in action, yet they've never seen Itachi's hand seals, meaning that means that Itachi will be able to feint with bunshins before Kakashi can hit him with Kamui. When Itachi has his bunshins out, Kakashi cannot use Kamui for fear of him hitting a clone instead of the real Itachi. While Kakashi is distracted with his clones he can shunshin above him to hit him with Ama, or he could shunshin with his clones to use Ama while hiding in the midst of them. There are too many options for Itachi with intel for him to lose.

He knew he had MS in part two and he also fought him there yet he didn't use it. He suffers from stamina and chakra issues regardless.

Because he couldn't aim it or maintain it properly, as I said in the post you replied to. The stamina and chakra issues are nowhere near the same in early Part Two compared to what he is capable of in the war.

Within the gap of time between him ambushing Obito with Guy and Kurama giving him chakra, Kakashi was able to use Raikiri (and its variations) at least 5 times, chakra-halving Kage Bunshin twice, Kamui 5 times, and a Doton wall before getting exhausted, with special mention to the fact that before this battle he had expended his chakra fighting and sealing Haku, Zabuza and the rest of the Seven Swordsmen of the Mist, where he also used Raikiri at least two more times. That is in stark contrast to using Kamui twice and being exhausted.

As I've said earlier, he had the luxury of unlimited chakra. Your mindset when you have unlimited chakra versus when you have a 2.5 in stamina isn't going to be the same.

Kakashi didn't use it immediately against Deidara.

, Kakashi begins prepping it immediately.

He didn't use it immediately against Obito.

, shortly after Obito appears, Kakashi attempts Kamui.

He didn't use it immediately against the Gedo Mazo.

Corrected it to Juubi before you posted.

1. If Itachi has full knowledge as well he can simply shunshin like this above him and nail him with an Ama.

2. He won't get the chance to use it.

Itachi isn't outrunning Kamui.

3. Come again?

Amaterasu spreading through a forest isn't a product of Itachi's chakra, just like if I set a leaf on fire with a match and the forest catches on fire, it isn't the power of that match that caused the ending result. The fire spread through the forest, far larger than what Itachi is capable of.


Kakashi has precog too.

sufficient speed feats,

Current Kakashi is just as fast as Itachi.

crows blocking Kakashi's vision as well as him confusing a bunshin for the real Itachi, and Itachi having him and mixing himself with his clones provides a perfect opportunity for him to hit him with Amaterasu.

Kakashi has smoke bombs, elemental walls, and a variety of Bunshins as well.

None of this is happening before a Kamui execution.

Let's say Kakashi does use Kamui off the bat. Itachi has been able to weave signs for clones faster than even a Sharingan eye can perceive. That means that Itachi will be able to feint with bunshins before Kakashi can hit him with Kamui.

Kakashi isn't trying to "read" signs here. He will just burst out a Kamui here.

Kakashi has used Suiton wall and numerous Raikiri variants without even using handseals to begin with. He can erect Doton walls while just putting his hand on the ground. Even Part I Kakashi managed to react to Itachi's "hand seal speed" assaults.

- He still had enough stamina to use this much Amaterasu. Look at the black flames on the dome and then compare it to the flames on the ground.

- Thank you for proving that Kakashi does build up chakra in order to use Kamui Lol. Now I'm 110 percent sure he can react to Kamui accordingly.

- This link only further facilitates my belief that Kamui, regardless of his stamina reserves, will still affect his body negatively to the point of where he won't be able to move or do any other attacks for quite a bit. This was during the war arc when his stamina and chakra reserves had increased and he still stated that he needed Sakura to protect his body after he used Kamui. Also, this was quite a few seconds after Obito appeared. That's more than enough time for Itachi to whip out a dozen bunshins and hordes of crows (which he has shown to be able to do with a mere lift of his cape).

- I didn't say he needed to outrun Kamui. All he needs to do is start out with clones (which he has shown to be able to do instantly) confuse himself in the midst of them and shunshin above Kakashi.

- Kakashi has precog but lacks speed reaction speed to something as fast as Ama

- No, he's not. He also has a lower score in the databook.

- Kakashi has those, but like you said, he wants to use Kamui right away even though he's IC, so he won't use those while Itachi will. And yeah, it is happening before a Kamui execution, seeing as his hand-seals have proven to be faster than Kamui.


I'm logging for awhile. I can counter tomorrow or someone else can take my place seeing as how I've been debating against over a dozen people mainly by myself v.v.

Kakashi surpassed Itachi in the war arc. And in Part 2 he already tricked itachi with a shadow clone so his Genjutsu didn't work and that cost him the match since Naruto took him down with the Giant Rasengan. If itachi uses tsukuyomi and it turns out to be a shadow clone he will lose.

Again, why are you linking me to the resulting wildfire?

The actual Amaterasu used by Itachi were .

Thank you for proving that you are 110% hung up on outdated manga facts.

- This link only further facilitates my belief that Kamui, regardless of his stamina reserves, will still affect his body negatively to the point of where he won't be able to move or do any other attacks for quite a bit. This was during the war arc when his stamina and chakra reserves had increased and he still stated that he needed Sakura to protect his body after he used Kamui. Also, this was quite a few seconds after Obito appeared. That's more than enough time for Itachi to whip out a dozen bunshins and hordes of crows (which he has shown to be able to do with a mere lift of his cape).

Why are you showing me scans from 200 chapters ago? This is literally the definition of irrelevant data.

As I said earlier, Kakashi can beat Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura because he beat them in the beginning of the manga, and without even using the Sharingan. Thus, he is the strongest character in the manga because Naruto and Sasuke are currently the strongest, and even with Sakura for backup, they still lost to him without his Sharingan being used.

That is literally the logic you are using here when consistently referring to Kakashi's older Kamui usages.

- I didn't say he needed to outrun Kamui. All he needs to do is start out with clones (which he has shown to be able to do instantly) confuse himself in the midst of them and shunshin above Kakashi.

He isn't going to use Kage Bunshin faster than Kakashi can warp him.

- Kakashi has precog but lacks speed reaction speed to something as fast as Ama

For the third time, this is a strawman.

I never, ever said that Kakashi will be dodging Amaterasu. I said he will pull off Kamui faster than Itachi can pull off Amaterasu.

- No, he's not. He also has a lower score in the databook.

Yeah, based on a databook from nearly 300 chapters ago.

Since then, Kakashi has shown the ability to keep pace with Gated Gai, a V2 Jinchuuriki with both Sharingan and Rinnegan, and the ability to outright blitz Obito (upon entry to the Kamui dimension, he was up in Obito's face with a Raikiri before the latter could even get up, let alone react).

- Kakashi has those, but like you said, he wants to use Kamui right away even though he's IC, so he won't use those while Itachi will.

You have clearly proven in this thread, time and time again, that you do not know what IC is, and every time someone tries to explain it to you, you regurgitate the same line over and over again. Here it is one last time:

(1) Knowledge changes how a character would fight IC. If you know your opponent has Katon, you aren't going to stupidly use Futon against him just because you've used Futon in every single fight you've been in. The fact that you know he holds an elemental advantage over you means that you have every reason to change your tactic. This is even more so for a tactical genius, like Kakashi.

(2) Power changes how a character would fight IC. For Part I Kakashi, it was IC for him to only use Raikiri a couple of times in a fight. Why? Because it wasted a large portion of his stamina back then. Now he uses Raikiri like a standard punch. Why? Because it no longer wastes a large portion of stamina for him. He has used eight of them in the current war, along with five Kamui, a Doton wall, and two Kage Bunshin, not to mention days of Sharingan usage.

Now swap Raikiri with Kamui. Part II Kakashi struggled with Kamui for the most part up until the War Arc. What was IC for Part II Kakashi back 400 chapters ago back when he was terrible at using Kamui isn't going for a Kakashi that can both control it and has the chakra pool to cope with its recoil.

Same idea with Sasuke and his Mangekyo Sharingan. Same idea with Naruto and his Futon Rasenshuriken. What was IC for a weaker version of a character is never going to be IC for a stronger version of that very same character. The "power" changes a character undergoes and the knowledge a character possesses dynamically changes what the definition of IC will be.

And yeah, it is happening before a Kamui execution, seeing as his hand-seals have proven to be faster than Kamui.

Now Itachi has V2 Raikage reflexes, has the speed to physically react to Kamui, and can weave handseals faster than Kakashi can just glare at him?

I'm logging for awhile. I can counter tomorrow or someone else can take my place seeing as how I've been debating against over a dozen people mainly by myself v.v.

The fact that a dozen people disagree with you shows you just how wrong you are.

I feel like this right here needs to be highlighted, because it seems to be the most prevalent issue in this entire [increasingly tedious] "debate" (if you want to even call it that at this point):

- Kakashi has those, but like you said, he wants to use Kamui right away even though he's IC, so he won't use those while Itachi will.

You have clearly proven in this thread, time and time again, that you do not know what IC (stands in-character) is, and every time someone tries to explain it to you, you regurgitate the same line over and over again. Here it is one last time:

(1) Knowledge changes how a character would fight IC. If you know your opponent has Katon, you aren't going to stupidly use Futon against him just because you've used Futon in every single fight you've been in. The fact that you know he holds an elemental advantage over you means that you have every reason to change your tactic. This is even more so for a tactical genius, like Kakashi.

(2) Power changes how a character would fight IC. For Part I Kakashi, it was IC for him to only use Raikiri a couple of times in a fight - it was a last resort. Why? Because it wasted a large portion of his stamina back then. Now he uses Raikiri like a standard punch. Why? Because it no longer wastes a large portion of stamina for him. He has used eight of them in the current war, along with five Kamui, a Doton wall, and two Kage Bunshin, not to mention days of Sharingan usage.

Now swap Raikiri with Kamui. Part II Kakashi struggled with Kamui for the most part up until the War Arc. What was IC for Part II Kakashi back 400 chapters ago back when he was terrible at using Kamui isn't going for a Kakashi that can both control it and has the chakra pool to cope with its recoil.

Same idea with Sasuke and his Mangekyo Sharingan. With better proficiency and EMS, he has no reason to be reluctant to use it. Same idea with Naruto and his Futon Rasenshuriken. With Sage Mode and no more arm injuries when using it, he has no reason to be reluctant to use it. Same idea with KCM; with Kurama no longer being hostile, Naruto has no reason to be worried about using it.

What was IC for a weaker version of a character is never going to be IC for a stronger version of that very same character. The "power" changes a character undergoes and the knowledge a character possesses dynamically changes what the definition of IC will be. It is by no means static in a Shonen manga where characters are always getting stronger.

there were not many people arguing fot Itachi. The main argument was IC Kakashi would not go for kamui at the beginning but Itachi would go for ama/tsukuyomi right off the bat lol

Just because Kakashi can sense a build-up of chakra in Itachi's eye doesn't mean he can predict whether it's going to be him activating Susano'o, Amaterasu, or Tsukuyomi, which still grants Itachi the element of surprise, meaning Kakashi will not be able to react with Doton.

A ribcage, which is more than enough to block all of Kakashi's attacks (excluding Kamui) is enough to tank his lightning bunshins, which is pretty much his only competent offense here (which is also useless, seeing as it takes over half his chakra). Using Kamui has proven to be more laborous than Itachi using Susano'o, so when he does use it to teleport away, Itachi no longer has a large cloak of chakra around him, meaning he can easily blitz Kakashi like this and cast an irresistible Tsukuyomi.

Taijutsu isn't on Kakashi's favor if Itachi can blitz an advanced sensor type, and fight in a Taijutsu battle with the likes of KCM Naruto as well as react to Bee without even looking at him

Sharingan cannot see chakra build up. Fan fiction at it's finest. haha

Itachi wins, because of genjutsu & susano'o countering kamui.

What's up with a this kamui one-shots argument? Full intel means itachi can produce crow bunshins, at the speed of which Kakashi cannot see the hand seals for. Then the rest of the fight is hide and seek with clones and feints. C'mon read the op

Yeah, I forgot that we are dealing with the Itachi that has V2 Raikage / Bijuu Mode Naruto level Shunshin and reflexes.

My apologies.
