Whenever people compare their favorite characters, certain fanboys tend to claim that their favorite character can use their OP jutsu to instantly defeat their opponents. I can't stand this logic as it is so biased.

Example:

Minato Fanboy: "If Minato fought Itachi, he would FTG behind Itachi before he could react and stab him,killing him instantly.

Itachi Fanboy: If Itachi fought Minato, he would immediately look into Minato's eyes, trapping himin Tsukiyome and defeating him instantly.

What fanboys tend to not realize is that the fight might not go the way they imagine it. They always skew the circumstances in their characters favor, while completely disregarding the opponents ability to fight back.

What you have to realize is that no powerful character would just stand still as his opponent attacked, no matter how fast or long ranged the attack is. All of the most powerful characters have a sufficient arsenal to hold their own against most opponents, at least for a little.

If you look throughout the Manga, their are virtually no circumstances where one character "one shotted" another powerful character. It doesn't happen that way. All of the characters have at least some ability to put up a fight.

So for all of the jutsu like Kamui, FTG, Tsukiyome, PS, TBB etc., none of them will instantly beat every opponent because the most powerful characters will be able to fight back

agreed. thatd never happen. especially because itachi and minato are cautious fighters. they would exchange clone feints first and get a feel of each other's powers. then minato would attempt FTG + rasengan.

This thread has already been made


OT: I agree, especially with the FTG arguments now that we seen that it's been able (more than once) to be reacted too. Sadly, I used to be one of those "FTG one shots" fans.

It's manga fact that Itachi always aims to end fights quickly. Itachi always aims for 1 shots.

I love when itachi haters always like to make up a list of Bullshit to attempt to talk their way out of him canonically genjutsu'ing their fave char Lol. The rest of your post is complete unimportant, especially "What you have to realize is that no powerful character would just stand still as his opponent attacked, no matter how fast or long ranged the attack is. All of the most powerful characters have a sufficient arsenal to hold their own against most opponents, at least for a little."; tell that to sasuke, orochimaru, deidara, .... Oh, wait, shit my bad, they're all weak characters Lol
