Yata's Mirror seriously underrated?

Here we go. So i believe that Yata's Mirror is really really really underestimated and many people think that it can't block high level attacks, but here is why I think that's wrong.

Firstly, in the 3rd databook, it said that Yata can counter a technique by using the opposite force to cancel it out. Most people think that this only applies to ninjutsu, but i think it completely applies to anything else as well. As we can see here, Itachi's susanoo is almost defeated, but Yata is still able to block explosives:


IMO, i know the bombs aren't strong, but it was still able to block it even with Susanoo almost being released.


As we heard from Madara (black zetsu), the shield is impenetrable:

As we can see, MADARA, someone who I trust the most with any information due to his wisdom and vast knowledge of the Narutoverse, says that this shield can turn back any attack. At first, this seemed like nothing because it was only Zetsu's opinion. But now that he know that black Zetsu is Madara, it adds a great amount of credibility.

Now for my last and final point, the juubi's TBB:
As we can see, this is the strongest TBB, much stronger than kurama's and 8-tails'. But look here!



As we can see, Kurama's chakra tails are able to defend against the strongest TBB!! IMO, this attack is the strongest technique, besides deidara's C0. (this is irrelevant, but I just want to say that the Juubi's TBB is super strong). IMO, if kurama's chakra cloak, something that is only a fraction of the power of the Juubi, was able to block the Juubi's TBB, then something legendary and whose power was recognized by Madara, could also do the same. It just doesn't make sense that a chakra cloak from Kurama is a stronger defense that Yata's mirror in my opinion! I don't see how a legendary item that is said to be able to block any attack, stated by Madara himself, could not block a TBB!

Therefore, I must say that Yata>TBB, which also basically means Yata> almost every technique in the narutoverse. What are your thoughts guys, remember be nice and no flaming! If you put in a good effort, I'll repute you :D

Perfect Susano'o >>> Yata Mirror. lol @Madara saying it was invincible though. His will =/= his thoughts or mental processes. Black Zetsu is merely a being who possesses Madara's will, nothing more. Less we forget that black Zetsu was outwitted by the likes of Chōjūrō [ ]. Are we saying that this is the actual Uchiha Madara thinking here? Yeah...no. Perfect Susano'o has just as much hype as the Mirror, since it was said to be able to destroy all creation [ ]. Yet, this weapon actually has some sort of feat to back its claims [ ]. Yata Mirror has what? Defending against paper bombs? It wouldn't surprise me if super Jintons or Bijuu Damas from Naruto or the Jūbi could eradicate it.

Since most people blindly accept it as some sort of omnipotent weapon, you'd have to say that the Yata Mirror is overrated.

Yata Mirror is overrated, especially since we have no durability feats on it, "reflecting all attacks" is pure hyperbole.

Also, Madara didn't recognize anything, Zetsu did.

This is just like Itachi's Susanoo which was said to be invincible....more hyperbole.

Op i agree yata mirror is underrated. Sure it hasn't been truly tested however some argue with confidence almost as if its cannon that a technique would overcome it. Some of these assumptions are viable, others not so much

Shinobi in the Narutoverse tend to call anything perfect what is representing an outstanding force or defense. So the sword of one of the seven swordsmen was called perfect attack, able to smash all defenses, so Gaaras sand was called perfect though not being able to repel anything. This, however is a featless hype given by Shinobi who are only shaped by their imaginations of power; the word perfect and absolute wasn't used for once. The hype turning around Yatas mirror however is stable and was given by the probably most knowing character and the even databook. People underestimate black Zetsus knowledge since not acknowledging him to have Madaras knowmedge, but this however isn't true. By giving him his will, he left also a portion of his power, his memories and imaginations. Not once, Black Zetsu acted as an explainer when it came to explaining certain techniques. He perfectly characterized Tsukuyomi, Amaterasu and even Totsukas sword and Yatas mirror, what shows indeed that the merely will leaved by Madara included by far more. The databook as well characterizes Yatas mirror as the ultimately spiritual defense, able to repel and neutralize any attack which gets in touch with it. And as long as it wasn't proven otherwise, the databook is the the most reliable source for sure.

Tbh I agree it's like kakashi kamui where there is no defence against it. From watching the lastest fight against obito apart from obito's kamui there seems to be no defence just like the eye is known for.

Yata Mirror another MS tech which is known to defend against any attack. Obviously not 100% anything but I believe most attacks used against this will be blocked.
