This is ALL based off the precious Databook everyone loves. In the databook it states anything "astral (space time), ninjutsu, and physical (taijutsu, weaponry)" lose their meaning of offensive capabilities.

With this we can assume that anything that derives from Senjutsu can bust through the Yata Mirror. Not only that, the TSB most likely can break through the Yata Mirror b/c it was never stated that the mirror isn't ninjutsu (but that is debatable). Another form that is probably capable of countering Yata is Genjutsu, but that's a problem since the only genjutsu that has affected someone like an Uchiha is SOUND Genjutsu.

It also known that Yata Mirror seems to only block within a 180 Degree Radius:

Meaning someone can possibly attack from behind, as long as they are fast enough or someone else is fighting as well. Or large explosions can affect the Susanoo as well.

So what are your thoughts on this topic?

If the yata mirror changes it's properties to defend and attack couldn't it surround itachi to save him from an attack?

It should be obvious Yata Mirror can't block attacks from behind, it's a damn shield.

I agree. Yata is fairly easy to navigate around at this point in the manga. Totsuka is still pretty cool but the current fighters would dodge that shit all day.

This is why DSM Kabuto solos' Itachi. Tayuya's flute completely immobilized Itachi and disabled his susanoo, if Sasuke wasn't there Itachi wouldn't have broken out.

yata mirror is overrated just like amaterasu that was said to not b possible to put out but nobody ever has been killed by amaterasu and jiraya and sasuke were able to put it out, what was said then was to make itachi look impresive but a tool or weapon is as powerful as the user, and remember this EVERY JUTSU HAS A WEAK SPOT itachis words

This guy is so obsessed with Itachi. Yata blocks any attack, what don't you understand.

Correction Jiraiya sealed Amaterasu in a scroll, he never put it out
