Hello Naruto fans! I've read a lot of Narutobase threads, and one thing I never understood is why a simple, effective counter was never given for Tsukuyomi: A shadow clone. The sharingan can't distinguish a shadow clone and Genjutsu has no effect on a shadow clone as seen in the manga. If Itachi were to use tsukuyomi on a shadow clone it would be ineffective, he would suffer a backlash, and drain about half of his chakra. Also, I think Itachi can only perform Tsukuyomi twice. During his fight with Naruto and Kakashi in the beginning of Part 2 Itachi told Naruto, "Don't worry I'm not going to use the Mangekyo Sharingan...or I should say I can't use it right now." After the fight Kisame stated since they only had 30% of their chakra they couldn't use their more powerful techniques. This means Itachi's tsukuyomi takes up more than 30% of his chakra which already limits him to two shots max. Although I don't think itachi would use it a second time if the first time fails as it would almost entirely deplete him. What do you guys think?

It's not really a counter, it's more a way of avoiding getting caught in the first place.

Sharingan see's through BoD.

OT: Obviously. But it's not that easy. That's like saying closing your eyes is the perfect counter to Tsukuyomi.

Yes that's true. But Kakashi managed to trick him, so it can be done.
