:sy:...Just a recap on that battle to put things in perspective:
- itachi was SICK before it happened. Almost going blind
- He never REALLY wanted to kill sasuke (as you see in the later chapters)
Even with these handicaps, Itachi still beat sasuke up and had him pinned up against the wall. If he REALLY wanted to kill him, he could have done it that whole time he held up Susanoo, while walking slowly toward Sasuke.
The only time Sasuke actually hit him was with the rigged shadow shuriken. THAT'S ALL. Wow, sasuke must be so bad-ass for being able to hit a blind guy who's coughing up blood.
Yet people still say Sasuke kicked Itachi's ass. IDIOTS.:flaw:
