well it can't really, because of his offensive weapons, the sword and that sharingan looking disk. Lets not forget amatersu tooI don't know therefore...preta path... seems to always work for Nagato fans. :|
What type of counters?I don't think Yata Mirror in itself is overrated - generally everyone knows that it's pretty much the closest defense to "invincible" in the series.
I think it's more of the fact that Itachi doesn't really have extraordinary chakra reserves to maintain Susano'o for extended periods of time in order to utilize Yata Mirror for a considerable amount of time. And Itachi has a fatal illness, so yeah.
That said, I do think there are possible counters to Yata Mirror. Just counters few ninja would be capable of executing.
The totsuke blade wouldn't be able to pierce the yata mirror.What would happen if you attack the strongest shield (Yata) with the strongest blade (Totsuka)?

Lawl, Unfortunately, totsuka doesn't have strongest blade hype, it just states it can seal anything it pierces .. but that doesn't mean it can pierce everything
its limit ? yet to be known what exactly that liquid thing can go through
For starters, the Wood Clone technique.What type of counters?
Another overlooked ability ,distant location from under the ground.
you said this cuz I said toska has no limit in sealing Right XD well Juubi is a huge chakra being i think all it has to do is kill itachi and cut the link between toska and the sealing jar as for how is he going to do that probably because even toska has a chakra sealing speed limitItachi > Juubi.
How is he going to kill him while he's being sealed and he has the yata mirror.you said this cuz I said toska has no limit in sealing Right XD well Juubi is a huge chakra being i think all it has to do is kill itachi and cut the link between toska and the sealing jar as for how is he going to do that probably because even toska has a chakra sealing speed limit
Susano'o is able to phase through the ground. But that isn't the point. How is Itachi going to get under the ground amidst his attack? Also Susano'o typically has to be either in skeletal form (without the flesh) or a higher iteration in order to utilize the Mirror/Sword (to hold it). Madara was only able to phase under the ground due to the usage of the Wood Clone and the fact that his Susano's arm was only present, not the entire or partial manifestation like Madara's was when he used it against Tsunade (only the arm/rib cage was used).Another overlooked ability ,
Susanno is also capable of phasing through earth and attacking someone
Also we don't know if yata mirror has any blindspots...Its been shown to change shape and size based on the incoming attack.. so what happens when an underground attack comes?
still a toss up
This as well. I did not see some of these scans in the translation I read. Mind showing your sources, Owariji?nice thread and where did you get those manga scans?
