Hello guys!

I had a thought about Itachi's illness!
Could it be that Itachi was the previous reincarnation of Indra but because he decided not to let hate consume him, that had a detrimental effect on his health leading to his death?

( i know that the sage said that madara was the previous reincarnation, but I thought that the above could be a rational explanation for his disease!)

I like your perspective but Indra chose Sasuke at birth.

Someone made a very good theory on his illness, I think they said it was some form of tuberculosis.

I don't think sasuke was the reincarnation from birth! We have seen that his chakra started to change after Itachi's death and kept getting colder!

Mmmm It's a decent theory, but its a bit far-fetched lols. Hagoromo also stated Madara was the previous incarnation, not Itachi. I'd say he didn't have the body or genetic makeup to handle the MS abilities and that made him sick. It could have been the same for Kimimaro. There's also the MS effecting any and all bodies if it is not eternal as the same thing happened to Sasuke and especially Madara. It stated and showed illness struck Madara in his body as well.

Reincarnations rejecting someone wouldn't make them sick, but nice theory.
Indra chose Sasuke at birth.

Itachi's only symptom was coughing up blood, that resembles Tuberculosis in real life or a variety of cardiovascular diseases. But it wasn't. It was just plot so that Kishimoto could nerf him and he would die.

No Kisame feed him diseased shark meat. Why do you think Kisame is always smiling and laughing?

I am 90% certain it was continuous strain from overuse of MS.

I don't think that's plausible cause in that case sasuke might have shown as well signs that correlate ms overuse with the disease or its syptoms!

Itachi was way stronger than Itachi, he soloed him.
