The point of this thread is to discuss what exactly happened during Kakashi vs Orochimaru 'fight'.
After some pages of talking, it all came down to this. Kakashi tried to take on Orochimaru and was convinced he could at least compete with him.
But what happens next? Take a closer look on the second scan here. Kakashi looks terrified and sees his head getting cut off.
What's interesting is that we get to see them strange 'star-like' things (I don't know how to call it) on Kakashi's face not on 1, but on 2 panels. From what I know, they mean 'action' in manga. They mean that something has happened.
Let's take a look here to prove it.
Same 'star-like' thing near Hashirama's face. We know he thought he killed Madara, but eventually he didn't. So here we had some hidden action as well, that caused Hashirama to make a wrong conclusion. Was it a.. Genjutsu?
So, getting back to Orochimaru. I believe that what he did there with Kakashi, was putting him under Genjutsu and traumatize him so badly, that he went from 'I'll take on you and kill you' to 'How can I even compete with him', even though it might've looked as if Orochimaru hadn't done anything in the meantime back then.
I want to start a discussion about that, because I cannot be sure that it surely was a Genjutsu. But databook gives Oro 5 points in that area.
But anyway, whatever it was, Orochimaru managed to break Kakashi's will and make him tremble in fear in a mere second with something, without even looking at him or making any hand seals.
Hope you enjoyed it and I'm looking forward to your feedback.
