Naruto defeated Nagato single handedly almost lol & Itachi CAN take on minato b/c w/ susano active, Minato's kunai he uses for teleports would bounce off just like sasukes sword did.

You really have to notice that itachi accomplished almost everything he did with a fatal disease. he knows he cant push himself because he would die. his life goal was to keep an eye out for sasuke. people don't recognize that if itachi would fight any of those shinoby you posted with the intent to kill, He can do it.

No. Itachi said himself he has limits, and all the ninja I posted are above that limit in a 1 on 1 battle.

This is just pure assumption.

I don't really see how you fans can compare Itachi to the all-time greats. He just does not have enough power. In my opinion the Top Tier characters are:

  • Nagato
  • Tobi
  • Naruto
  • Hiruzen Prime
  • Madara
  • Hashirama
  • Minato(borderline)
  • Kabuto(without edo borderline)
Itachi just cannot defeat any of the characters listed above. Also Itachi never defeated any character of significance without a decent amount of help, along with his poor stamina I don't really see how he can make top tier.

Discuss, no fanboyism.

Minato? I don't doubt his power, but I certainly doubt his heritage, where do you get that he is a descendent of the sage?

You have no proof of this I'm sure.....ok so he kinda looks like the second Hokage and he has similar abilities to him (ST and tracking jutsu), but still....no solid proof.

I think characters CAN be classified at a certain tier but they CAN'T truly be specifically ranked side-by-side on who's better than who in one list. People have so many different strengths and weaknesses.

For example, Character "A" might be of disadvantage in a matchup against B. B might be weak against C. But C might be weak against A. Like Rock, Paper, Scissors to put into simple terms.
A < B
B < C
C < A

Just like in art, there are greats but there is no greatest. But Yeah, I do believe Itachi is amongst the top tier.
