Itachi vs Pain
1. Itachi, Naruto & Bee Vs Nagato (controlled by Kabuto) There's a huge difference. Kabuto almost forgot about Chibaku. The real Nagato wouldn't have just stood there like a puppet. Nagato has sensory to spot Kabuto for Itachi to find. He'll easily spot Itachi nearby. Plus, Itachi had to remind Kabuto that Nagato had sensory. Itachi was finished when Nagato casted Chibaku (Planetary Devastation). The real Nagato wouldn't allow Itachi's Totsuka blade to reach the core too.
2. Naruto vs Pain = Pain (after Konoha destroyed)
- Jiraiya's info
- Prep time with 2 Sage clones
- Needed help from Frog Sage to reverse summon Naruto's clones
- Tsunade's slug advising Naruto, maybe healing too
- Pain almost made Naruto lose hope when he pinned him down until Hinata SUPER triggered him.
- Minato had to reseal for Naruto, and rebuild his confidence.
- Naruto gained Sage mode after being saved by Minato.
- Naruto fought drained Pain after destroying the whole damn village!
- On top of all of this, Pain never attacked Naruto with the intention to kill. Naruto attacked purely to kill.
Naruto would've been SUPER dead if it was truly 1 vs 1. They both were taught by Jiraiya, and came from the Uzumaki clan. Pain, "You and I are sibling disciples. As students of the same master, we ought to be able to understand one another." (A joke with truth)
3. Itachi Vs Pain = Pain
Ultimately, it'll come down to who has more chakra, Nagato. Pain is too much of a powerhouse for Itachi to last. Itachi is finished once his Susano'o is gone, assuming he's nearly or is out of chakra. Think about how well Nagato was able to control the Six Paths simultaneously. Even Pain's puppet uses advanced technologies greater than ours, like lasers and homing missiles.
Amaterasu will do absolutely nothing because it'll get absorbed or pulled off immediately! Not to mention, Amaterasu could get absorbed with a scroll, like how Jiraiya did after Itachi and Kisame ran away from Jiraiya's jutsu. I'm sure Jiraiya taught him about it. Raikage dodged Amaterasu against Sasuke, which means it's not as fast as Sasuke's Kirin (lightning). Gaara easily pulled out Madara out of his Susano'o. That means Itachi won't be perfectly guarded. Maybe Pain could pull him out because when he pulls, I don't think anything must enter Susano'o to grab Itachi, however, a push seems different. If Itachi's Totsuka blade can't reach the core of Pain's Chibaku, then he'll get trapped inside along with Susano'o. Susano'o won't be able to move.
(Proof): Naruto chapter 677 page 9 aka page 678. Infinite Tsukuyomi does not work on three things that were stated in the manga; Perfect Susano'o, Rinnegan and the reanimated (undead). Black Zetsu, "The light can't penetrate that Susano'o? His Rinnegan can deter even this jutsu?" This means not even the Infinite Tsukuyomi can work on Perfect Susano'o and Rinnegan. Even ChatGPT stated that Pain would win (just for humor about ChatGPT, but it's true that ChatGPT stated that Pain would win).
Rinnegan requires Uchiha and Senju blood to activate. It is extremely rare and powerful. Why would the author make Rinnegan so LEGENDARY? The story made it clear that it was more powerful than any eye, including Mangekyō Sharingan. All that legendary talk for what? All that we know for sure is that the author, Masashi Kishimoto, stated that Pain is the strongest Akatsuki.
"The strongest man in Akatsuki heads for Naruto." Some people try to curve this by stating the time when Itachi gave Naruto his power, but obviously, it was referring to Pain because he was FINALLY being revealed.
Here's another question. Why didn't Itachi use Tsukuyomi right after Nagato casted Chibaku (Planetary Devastation), nor at all? Itachi knew he had infinite chakra too. He could've disable Nagato so easily with it. Itachi probably knew that it wouldn't have worked against Rinnegan. If he wasn't sure then he would've at least tested it out because it's better than risking death or being captured. Itachi used Amaterasu multiple times, but he wouldn't even use Tsukuyomi once? It's because he never used it that answers the question about Rinnegan able to block all visual genjutsu, including Tsukuyomi.
There are so many ways this fight can last long. Pain will keep reviving. Itachi will have a tough time catching him. Nagato, aka 7th Pain, can summon the Gedo Statue that's even bigger than Choji and his dad. Even they needed help. If used right, it can hurt a lot. Itachi's Yata Mirror is strong, but it doesn't cover everywhere. Susano'o can only handle so much against multiple attacks simultaneously. There are ways for Pain to grab Susanoo's arm that's holding the Totsuka blade, like his lizard's tongue or other animals biting it. Pain could even absorb away the Susano'o because Susano'o is chakra construct. Pain could use his Almighty Push hidden under the ground to blow away Susano'o while Itachi is being distracted fighting others. We all saw how much Itachi lost chakra each time he used his eye powers.
Eventually, Itachi will deplete all his chakra. Pain will rip out Itachi's soul with one touch while the others attack (not all 6). Itachi can never waste his chakra against Pain. Nagato is from the Uzumaki clan, which carries the most chakra. If this fight drags, it'll come down to who has more chakra. Pain wins. (6 Pains)
Itachi's two eyes versus 6 Pains + 7th Pain with All Powers. Izanagi will be useless against Chibaku because he'll just get pulled up again. It won't matter how long his Izanagi lasts. I doubt Izanagi and Izanami link all the Pains. Itachi might have to fight blind against the 7th Pain. And that's IF Itachi could figure out how to kill him without chakra. Either way, one touch is all Nagato will need to rip out Itachi's soul.
Pull + Rip = dead.
Or another Chibaku (Planetary Devastation) while hidden and ready to absorb powers.
I understand Itachi is extremely intelligent and powerful, but Pain is just too much of a powerhouse for Itachi.
Bro no one is reading all of that take a rest 💀

This was really well done. You brought up basically everything to do with the fight and went through it.
With regards to the time itachi tagged nagato with amaterasu the reason the auto counter seems to do nothing may be due to itachi not being alive as the Edo counter is a result of them being forced to fight the living. Nagato himself also knew exactly when itachi was building up chakra for amaterasu so no matter how fast the attack was absorption chakra could have been put up in advance. Nagato also flat out stares at it, acknowledging that itachi broke free before he eventually fell of.
Yeah I think it’s general indication MS techniques are just way too fast for Grey Haired Nagato
@@ThunderGodTGeh not quite sure as he knew it was going to happen
One mistake the video was ignoring is that white hair was "Tasked" to fight bee and Naruto.
Itachi just reprogrammed himself thus, white hair didnt react at all. He did however acknowledge his chakra built imidietly.
Red hair was under DIRECT control by Kabuto. So all the mistakes he did that the paths of pain did not are on Kabuto. He even confirms to not know of Nagatos insane sensory wich would have made it easy to see Itachi coming wich is how he got hit in the first place
We also know:
-Deva can speed up the pulling of chibaku significally, and Nagato not only has a better chibaku but had infinite chakra to just speed seal them all without worrying about stammina.
-Deva harassed Six tailed Kyuubi mode so it couldnt blast the core. Nagato has lasers and rockets but Kabuto let him kick back and watch.
-Nagato can fly forever, he has zero mobility issues as Edo and zero limits to speed because he can increase his speed like how the Deva path outran/flew six tails kyuubi mode wich was very very fast with a mix of the deva path and the bodies own speed to get close to the main body for chibaku.
-In all pain fights his summonings scatter and stay mobile, kabuto had them positioned as sitting ducks and easy targets.
-Kabuto never properly split the dog to avoid it being one shot. Aka just push off any burning parts as single dog just how Naruto uses kuramas chakra to catch and throw off amaterasu. It is also why the dogs vere so broken. They multiply by pain, but for some reason Kabuto chose not to split them.
-That you just stand in a half Sussannoo from Madara, thus can be removed from it. Gravity pull should do the trick.
-That if you have a sussannoo out and get removed this way the sussannoo has a cooldown until it dematerializes and can be used again. Aka Madara ( whos main abillty is sussannoo and was born a child soldier prodigy on a battlefield with top notch reaction speed) was to slow to ribcage or summon sussano in time and needed the preta path to counter Naruto. Thus being removed is a window to blast him.
-Nagatos preta path is just a 360 shield he can pop off and absorb Amaterasu passively just how Kabuto used it to casually deny Naruto any chakra based attacks or push it off.
-That the Rinnegan even resisted the infinite tsykoyumi, and a genius genjutsu master as Itachi would have tried those first with infinite chakra to quickly end the fight. Not nearly die.
@@TrafalgarWaterDLaw-dl5cm hadn't thought of these, thanks a lot fam.
@@badassproductions4734 Anytime. Also still a good vid overall, but theese are very important factors i see alot of content creators ignore about Nagatos fights. And how you can't really take his edo fights as "All he can do" but "Things he could do".
Pain shows us how he "Would do" stuff. And outside info like his insane sensory.
A reference to "normal" Uzumaki sensory with Karin who could pinpoint people for team Taka all the time. And Nagato was the only one to find Kabuto who was so prepaired that no other sensory alive found him.
And thats an insane feat given his red hair edos main issue was being suprised.
And the mobility argument just looks dumb when you remember that the deva path allows you to not only float but boost your flight speed to a degree you outspeed six tailed kyuubi mode charging at you with killing intent. Obviously not Minato or Raikage speed, but more then enough to just stay out of range, or dodge most things.
Nagato wins high difficulty. The abilities from Tendo path are just way too difficult for Itachi to counter by himself. Itachi needed Bee and Naruto to help him destroy the planetary devastation.
Itachi has exploding shadow clones to punish universal pull and probably negs/resists almighty push with his Susanoo like how 6 tails naruto did to tendo pain. Planetary devastation is a problem, but it's not something that Nagato/Pain pulls out at the beginning of a fight, and also isn't exactly instant. I could also see a situation where Planetary Devastation activates and Itachi forces a draw by sealing Nagato with the Totsuka blade.
@@whispr_2ME he had to absorb bee's chakra in order to pull it off too. So depends on the edo you use. As it appears nagato struggles to even use chibaku tensei
@@LuciferArc1that’s his original form he juss died with 0 chakra/energy
Itachi, didn't need naruto or be to help destroy the planetary devastation core. He didn't even go full power on the core. The susanoo that through the beads was only in its' upper body humanoid form. We know higher susanoo stages mean more power, so the beads itachi threw weren't at full power.
Itachi can just Izanagi the Chibaku Tensei. Then we go back to the manga fight. Nagato just used his ace. He is exhausted, recharging his chakra.
Out of thin air, Izanagi makes Itachi pop out. And Nagato is sealed by the Susano blade.
Nonetheless Nagato and Itachi arsenal are just ridiculous. They both have crazy techniques.
I think something people over look drastically when referencing the Nagato vs Itachi, Naruto, and B fight is that from a writing perspective the Pain Arc had literally just ended not too long ago, so there was no way kishimoto was going to dedicate another long drawn out and full scale fight with nagato since he had JUST finished doing that shortly before. A lot of the reanimation fights were there basically as fluff and ended much quicker than they most likely truly would have realistically because Kishimoto wanted to show off so many different dead characters but also move along to Obito and Madara. So in my opinion, a lot of these reanimation fights are short, rushed, and sort of shoehorned in and do not necessarily do the fights justice. And it is also very easy to write a scenario where either of these characters stomps the other.
Its also EXTREMELY important to note 3 things.
1. White Hair Nagato didnt want to win, and idled alot. Alongside telling bee and Naruto what to do. He wasnt "programmed" to fighr or even gocus on Itachi wich is how edo work. Itachi suprisingly reprigrammed himself.
2. Grey eye Nagato after pushing anaterasu off was DIRECTLY under Kabutos control who had to rely on intel. Wich ment he never used his god level sensory, wich found Kabito in his barrier cave and tokd Itachi, thus could easily react and know the exsact location of people atound him. Kabuto stated he didnt know this. Wixh explains why he didnt have the rinnegan summonings move like Nagato did ad pain. That he didnt react to Itachi twice. That he didnt invinitely fly out of reach with tendo, ampt up the pulling speed of chibaku like he did as pain, didnt rocket abd laser harass them so they cant oeacefully charge their strongest jutsu or use his elemental realeases we know alive Nagato had from Jirayas statement. And that it was Kabutos fault for just parking him during the Chibaku.
We literary see him harass Six tailed Kyuubi mode naruto when he tried to shoot the Chibaku and almost sealing full half kurama.
But Kabuto had hin stand, watch and let them plan, charge and together take it out.
3. We never saw prime alive Nagato fight himself, and him never absorbing a bir of the chakra from the Bijuu he stored in the gedo to just rejuvenite himself and be a one man army us a bs plotthole after this
Therfor to meassure Nagato we need to mix how he fought as pain to understand Nagatos strategic use of his abilities as well as use outside info like his insane sensory that if Karin can sense a whole big ass area, and Nagato found Kabuto miles away behind barriers he would 100% sense Itachis ambushes and react to it since he is fast enough to deal with bee and kcm1. So he can deal with Itachi.
But can get a guess at how Nagato has no cooldowbs anymore unlike pain and thus in a 1v1 can oztlast, overpower and win mid difficulti at best.
We also know:
-The Rinnegan can resist the infinite Tsykoyumi. So a regular one should as well. A genjutsu expert such as Itachi would have also tried as edo with no chakra or stammina issues.
-Amaterasu would be instantly absorbed or pushed off.
-And gravity makes short work pulling Itachi out if even Madara can be thrown out of his half sussannoo.
Meanwhile nothing Itachi does can do to much to him.
I honestly think this is where Kishimoto went in the wrong direction in the anime. Instead of having pointless fillers to stall the anime, he should have extended the fights and added relevant fights into the anime. For example the Madara vs Hashirama fight.
@@JVMC_ZR1 yeah I think a lot of shows (anime and live action) both always fall for the same trap when it comes to fights between legendary historic characters. “It was a battle like no other, it lasted 3 days and 3 nights, the very landscape itself was reshaped!!! Now here’s 10 seconds from the fight and you’ll never see the rest”
It is noteworthy how we always make Nagato to not be mobile off the bat🤷🏾♂️. Also no time in the fight did Itachi considered using any genjutsu against Nagato, while he did use it against bee.
Finally Itachi only knew how to counter the Chibaku Tensei AFTER Naruto told him about Kyubi's rampage!!!
facts although this guy did a pretty amazing video on them both he definitely focused and was more bias towards itachi, when really this goes to nagato mid to potentially high diff nothing more nothing less...
@@na.1162Nagato MID diffs at its highest difficulty against Itachi.
Put Itachi in Naruto’s place in Pains Invasion of Konaha. It’s a WASH.
I think your forgetting that the reason Nagato slash kabuto pulled out his summons was because even in his red haired state he still had trouble moving his legs to avoid itachi. This was pointed out by kabuto in his explanation of how he lost that fight. Nagato can still react to itachi but he wouldn't be able to move his legs in time.
But could react to kcm naruto and v2 bee? Does that scale itachis speed higher then? That applies to grey haired nagato after he got back his chakra he was fine
@@manny9191 Moving your arms to block is massively different to moving your whole body, obviously
Reaction speed and movement speed is different
And honestly that’s cap kabuto knows next to nothing about nagatos abilities he could have abused asura path to completely nullify his movement problems but didn’t
You mean forgetting that with deva path he can literard FLY? Tendo flew so fast he outsped full charge six tails kyuubi mode naruto. And that thing was fast af.
So i dont see why his legs matter if he has better stronger Deva techniques, no cooldowns and infinitec chakra in the case of edo. Orxso much chakra alive he filled 6 bodies, fought with eye abilities that werent his all day to take a jinchuukiri alive in a plottarmor full disadvantage fight and still revive all of Konoha.
That was just Kabutos lack of knowledge throughout the entire fight nothing more.
I really, REALLY don’t understand how Itachi doesn’t get absolutely stomped. He is so overrated in analysis videos so frequently, I just don’t get it. How are Nagato’s and Itachi’s feats even remotely comparable?
The fight is over in an instant. The Susanoo is just Chakra, it can be absorbed, and even if it wasn’t, the King of Hell can absorb souls. The fight is a Banshou Tennin king of hell combo away from ending, two moves. Itachi cannot counter it. Nagato is broken, like, ridiculously broken, they don’t scale to each other at all.
Great video, amazing analysis, and great presentation. Honestly, barely any Naruto channels go in such detail, and don't just give bias to one side with the other getting pushed back. A video that might be your style is Madara vs the Akatsuki but you form your own pairs however you want with the best chemistry to see who would have the best chances to beat him with all 10 picked members like originally but at different points ei: final valley, edo, revived, or prime alive with no Nine Tails. Again, this is an incredible video and amazing arguments for both! Immediate like!!
Appreciate the kind words brother ✊🏻 and yeah I’ll definitely put it on the list
Good analysis bro💯 very 50/50 fight

W cookin as usual TG
🗽🗽🗽
Thank you sir ✊🏻🔥
W video my friend. Itachi and Nagato are the goats for 80% of the show
Has anyone considered if there was some lag when Kabuto was controlling Nagato, might explain the totsuka blade stab when wielding a rinnegan. And I think Nagato wanted to just stop resisting hence why Kabuto needed to step in.
Anyway another very nuanced and in-depth analysis, as expected from ThunderGod
There is no lag. 3rd Raikage was able to outspeed KCM Naruto multiple times.
Appreciate the complements my boy 🔥✊🏻 yeah it is any interesting discussion, as it also does somewhat imply Kabuto would have to be able to keep pace with every fighter on the battlefield to perceive how his edo’s move and whatnot
Perhaps but right before Nagato was hit with the totsuka blade, his summonings were embedded with Itachi’s kunai. And given that there was summonings all over the place, Itachi either blitzed them or found a blind spot in their field of vision. It’s shown right after Itachi saves Naruto and Bee. By disregarding the visions of the summonings this should’ve immediately notified Nagato or Kabuto that something was wrong.
Bruh READ THE MANGA. it’s stated the rinnegan can’t see through obstruction by kabuto, Madara, and we see it affect nagato. As in the rinnegan can’t see through smoke, dust, fog etc. itachi stabs him through the dust.
@@MultiAssassin31 So would you state RIGHT NOW that even Madara would get totsuka blade stabbed right out of the story by Itachi once there's a cloud of smoke in the way?
Not that it can see through smoke, just how many times have we seen top-tier ninja juiced up on BIJU chakra not be able to dodge shit like this...
Overall very good analysis. The genjutsu part is iffy, considering the rinnegan hasn't directly fallen under it but this explanation is still great
@Jon Miller not all genjutsu but it should be immune to optical genjutsus of the sharingan since it's a superior dojutsu. The only relevant counter to I've seen here is kakashi having a genjutsu battle obito but we don't know who casted the genjutsu to begin with or whether rinnegan was bypassed and not obito other sharingan eye.
@Jon Miller it matters because if it's obito that casted the genjutsu then there is no point were the rinnegan has to resist anything. Obito even with the rinnegan can be affected because he has another sharingan that is susceptible to genjutsu. Rinnegan being a superior dojutsu should be immune, but the other mangenkyo eye would still allow kakashi cast it
@@daddyGbaby DUde, dont add your own head cannon :/ theres no resistance, sorry
@@kyletaylor9832 it's not head canon. Even back in part 1 Kakashi was effected by Tsukuyomi with only his Sharingan on and his other eye closed. This is obvious proof you can still be effected even with one eye. So his analysis is correct.
@@daddyGbaby Obito casted it because after they “kill” each other in the genjutsu, it’s only after Kakashi says something along the lines of enough of these games that the genjutsu disappears and shows them standing across each other. It implies that Obito was the caster all along but Kakashi effortlessly saw through it.
I'm curious why you'd believe Nagato allowing himself to be set on fire even matters. It's clearly an inadequate attack to deal with Nagato. He's edo and the attack was pointless other than hyping up Itachi breaking out of edo tensei, which was pretty damn cool.
He literally just warned everyone that Itachi was preparing an attack as he sensed it. So he clearly knew the attack was coming and let it happen. He let it happen because it's harmless even if he were alive. You have someone like Ay u bothered by the flames and calmly cuts his hand off. Edo Nagato just oushes it off because it's not even worth dodging even if he could.
The questions I have are this... why not absorb the jutsu and why is Kabuto interested so much in Shisui's eye that he's allowing any of this to go down. Who's alive that he would even care to use the ability?
The other issue I have with, not the video but the people in the comments. This fight is beyond uneven.
It's 3v1
Itachi clearly "blitzed " nagato by taking out the lizard. He did this while hiding and waiting until nagato was engaged with Naruto and Bee
We never see Itachi fighting a serious Naruto or anything beyond base Bee. Bee is blitzed twice in base but still counters everything Itachi throws at him. The genjutsu shurikan attack, for example where he counters genjutsu and that attack should tell you that he's relative in power to Itachi. This interaction is always brushed aside to make itachi seem stronger.
Literally during the fight, Kabuto is wondering what abilities Nagato has so he's clearly at a disadvantage...aka nerfed.
Speaking of nerfed, Chiyo, Hiruzen, and Nagato are all brought back past their prime or broken but Itachi is brought back stronger than he was when he died. So you have a crippled Nagato completely drained from casting rebirth which killed him versus KCM Naruto and V2 Killer Bee which he easily dispatched.
It's not debatable that Itachi struggled with a lesser version of Bee while Nagato completely removes him from the rest of the fight instantly. Again, what was the lariat really going to do to an edo? So is it really a blitz if you know you have the easiest dub against Bee up to that point.
The last part of this absolutely ridiculous comparison is the fact that Itachi says they all need to throw their strongest attacks. Are we really suggesting a half susanno yasaka bead is as strong as a tailed beast bomb from full 8 tails killer Bee or that itachi can somehow toss out enough to escape chibaku tensei?
Lastly, chap 552... Kabuto clearly states Itachi out maneuvered him by blinding the summons and that Nagato was not mobile enough.
The anime makes it seem like that dust cloud was there forever but they destroy chibaku tensei and hiding once again, itachi pulls out Totsuka for the win.
I'm now sure how or why anymore would interpret this as overpowering Nagato. Genjutsu wasn't even bothered with and Nagato, as shown in chap 551 can sense when Itachi is about to use his MS. They never once fight and nagato has better showings against Naruto and a stronger version of Bee.
This would be an absolute stomp. I really do enjoy the fact that Itachi is basically the Batman of Naruto but people give him every advantage in the world every encounter when his only strength that remotely mattered in this fight was his ability to out smart Kabuto..
Yeah so I’ll just address what you said about the vid, I was just offering a couple interpretations for the feat that was all. Everything else idk what to tell ya
Thank you!! It's not even a close fight!
Finally someone who analyzes this fight correctly ie leaning on Nagato ^^ Very well done.
Cool vid bro.😺
This video is really good.
Nagato never tried to attack Itachi
You must know why though ;)
@@xlRyusei he wasn’t program to initially. Then Kabuto was focused on Killer Bee and Naruto.
@@HC-gm4fo Is not like it takes much time to reconsider the enemy. I mean that is not like Kabuto had to code an entire app to make Nagato consider Itachi an enemy, Kabuto can do that in less than a second, if not hr couldn't react to things while controlling others.
@@xlRyuseiBut nagato wont even tryna fight NOBODY in the first place 😂 kabuto made him fight
Because Itachi never gave him the chance
Is this really a debate? Is there people believe Itachi has even a remote chance of victory? Seriously? Nagato or even pain no diffs any akatsuki member except Obito...
Nagato is folding Itachi 1v1
I didnt know this was even a debate. Nagato obviously wins this. Nagato didnt wanna fight them in edo and was trying to hold himself and even like that it took naruto, bee and itachi. Because needing all 3 to deal with 1 jutsu of nagato is basically needing all 3 for nagato. And unless u think edo itachi scales above bee + naruto kmc1 together then idk why this is a debate.
It's a debate bc Itachi's win condition is so out there like Kamui or Itachi's genjutsu trump card he used against Kabuto. It's an interesting topic to talk about. A lot of the more ignorant fans speculate Itachi could win. It's easy to say Itachi needs more bodies to distract & get the better of Nagato.
Nagato can multi-task just fine against a single target. He toyed with Jiraiya for the first part of the fight & tricked him with a shadow clone. You're obviously right. Nagato isn't a slouch & in other comments I've explained how Nagato has finesse in probably more areas than Itachi as a fighter. Chakra manipulation, using multiple ninjutsu or ninjutsu mastery, mastered sensory, physical enhancement, overall speed he uses to close the gap/kite which is different from taijutsu/combat speed. He has skill sets that are clutch & make up for Itachi's overall witty / speed feats.
It is ridiculous that this is a discussion, it is a mismatch. Nagato wins in two moves, I don’t get it
@@tomasbedoya2901no he doesn’t lol Itachi would kill Nagato, Obito even knew this hence why he didn’t attack the village until Itachi was dead.

itachi without his ms handled kcm naruto and bee and with his ms and susanoo he had to save them after nagato low diffed them then blitzed nagato and 1 shot him, its very clear unless you have some sort of literacy issue that he did outscale both of them combined
My dawg🎉🎉🎉
🔥✊🏻
The Susanoo is made of chakra. Of course it can be absorbed. Same with the Totsuka Blade.
Otherwise, Itachi wins, obviously. But if it can be absorbed, Nagato wins easily.
Nagato should wipe the floor with Itchi. I am not sure it should be able to be absorbed at least not easily. I would like to think Pain would be able to disable Itchi and prevent Itchi from using his Susanoo. Although it's not put in the anime for 'reasons' Given that Mai was able to burn through the Susanoo with lava release and Tusnade was able to punch through Madara's with her fist. A Rinnegan user should be able to do something against the Susanoo. Itchi without the Totsuka blade doesn't stand a chance. But he does have it. Making it a little bit dicey for Nagato but he should still be able avoid throw stuff at Itchi and win.
Susanoo drains hella chakra and even still nagato can just summon them demon dogs that multiply every time they get cut
In my mind Itachi having to risk Bee & Naruto's death in order to get a opening is a bad sign
What are you talking about? That never happened
Itachi was literally trying to teach Naruto about team work and to stop rushing into fights…….which honestly is not something that Naruto should have needed to learn at this point but still

From memory, sussanno is just chakra. Same as rasengan, which can be absorbed.
I see no reason that sussanno can't be absorbed, though admittedly it's probably too large considering every time we see it, it's in a small cone around the absorbed.
Then again. Jiraiyas giant rasengan was basically vacuumed in. So maybe?

@@ThunderGodTG u good dw use it however you please w thumbnail to😭🤞🏾
What people don't seem to understand about naruto is that vs battles are not just straight up a>b>c like to an extent it is but characters that are in similar tiers have weird matchup specific stuff. Nagato is definitely stronger than itatchi period. Itachi is not soloing the entire leaf and naruto. Period. However 1 on 1 itatchi is insane, and itatchi can definitely beat Nagato. But I'm pretty sure nagato wins 6/10 in a 1v1.
Nagato would slap Itachi with a shinra tensei similar to what The deva part did to the leaf and that’s it 😹 you might say Itachi has the Susanoo but Nagato has something that’s way way more powerful than the Susanoo which is the Gedo Statue which can drain the chakra of anyone that’s it game over. Amaterasu and fire ball jutsu can easily be absorbed by the rinnegan.
No single sharingan or Mangekyou sharingan gengjutsu works on a Rinnegan User no matter how strong even Tsukoyomi and Shisui Mangekyou’s abilities are useless against Nagato
Itachi slaps Nagato reflecting the shinra tensei back to him with Yata Mirror.
Lol, Itachi can seal gedo mazo with Totsuka Blade.
Shisui's Kotoamatsukami one-shots Nagato.

Great video but you forgot to mention how Itachi couldn’t kill Kabuto during their fight. He was trying to keep him alive, so even in that fight Itachi got nerfed as he couldn’t kill Kabuto or the whole plan would be ruined
If you actually use your brain no version of itachi is beating pain or nagato
What is Nagoto doing to a toska blade💀
@@MT-xx5cd itachi is gonna have to break the rinnegan vision and blind nagato to be able to stab him with totsuka blade even in the fight when nagato was dealing with naruto and bee then itachi come in he first broke the rinnegan vision before attacking nagato and kabuto stated that itachi threw the kunais from a blind spot to break the rinnegan vision so even itachi knows that he has to break the rinnegan vision before being able to land anything on nagato but in 1v1 fight nagato won't be busy dealing with naruto and bee when itachi tries to break the rinnegan vision, nagato will be attacking him so how can itachi break the rinnegan vision while nagato is after him and even if itachi breaks the rinnegan vision how is he gonna deal with chibaku tensei because nagato did throw it in the encounter they had
@@MT-xx5cdwhat is Itachi doing to Preta path, the king of hell, Chibaku Tensei, soul ripper dragon, and banshou tennin combined with any other ability just mentioned? Nothing, that’s what. Itachi loses before he gets a chance to summon susanoo, and it is not like Nagato is going to stand there and take the Totsuka blade, he shinra tenseis it, grabs it with a robot arm, absolves it, he is untouchable for Itachi
@@MT-xx5cd Nagato will absorb toska blade.
Once nagato brings out the gedo statue i really don't see what itachi is doing about it. His only win condition is either Tsukuyomi or Izanami, if nagato falls for a genjutsu itachi could just walk up and stab him, but given that the rinnegan is just a hyper advanced sharingan its not clear if such jutsu would even work, after all sasuke could negate the infinite tsukuyomi with his rinnegan.
To be fair it was an enhanced 6 paths rinnegan, but a rinnegan nonetheless so I get your point
for izanami to work he has to control the flow of the battle and i don’t think he cant tsukuyomi it either his move has to be totska blade
Itachi either needs to deal with the summons right away or hit ALL of them with Genjutsu in order for Itachi's genjutsu to be able to win
Itachi literally has a Susano’o but nah I think Nagato claps him tho
Edo Nagato cannot summon the Gedo Mazo, as his pair of Rinnegan are fake and the real ones where under the possession of Obito, who can casually summon the Gedo Mazo.
I really don't know if amaterasu is truly a threat to Nagato himself, maybe it is with his summons but the fact that he sensed it and still had plenty of time to react to it but didn't, that just tells me that he wanted that to happen so that he could absorb the chakra but it clearly wasn't enough because after that he just simply pushes it away.
Bee is only in this anime to give chakra to bad guys lol
This comment changed my perception of bee LMAO
Bro nagato wins this easily in my opinion due to itachi not having an answer for planetary devastation
Why do people think Itachi could take Nagato? Nagato wins mid - high dif.
Cause he literally did beat him

The king of hell is actually untouchable and invisible then how the heck did itachi hits him with kunai ! such a stupid Plot hole this fight has.
The “ending the debate” thing is so silly, your just adding to it
It’s a thumbnail bro
ThunderGod this has to be the best breakdown of the Itachi vs Nagato match up. The only thing content creators barely discuss is that Chibaku Tensei leaves Nagato open while the energy is gathering everything around it. Itachi has time to hit him with the Tosuka blade which is an instant attack.
Appreciate it 👍🏻🔥
Nagato actually is not open to attacks during chibaku tensei this was literally shown in the pain vs 6 tails fight.deva path was shown manipulating gravity deflecting chakra blasts AND what most don’t mention is nagato has the ability to interrupt opponents trying to destroy chibaku tensei and strengthen the gravitational force of the Justu also shown in the deva path fight vs 6 tails naruto
@@sixpaths66 I'm not talking about Pain with the Path's of Pain. I'm talking about Nagato vs Itachi in a 1 v 1 match up. What this whole video is about.
@byronjohnson9542 I know that.
I'm just saying what nagato himself is capable of without being controlled.
Nagato has no cooldowns and can overlap all of his rinnegan abilities while being a sensory type and probably the best sensory type in the verse till this day no other character to my knowledge can sense someone's attacks before they are launched nor track someone behind barriers like he did kabuto
Exsactly. Nagato not flying during the fight to remove the lack of mobility AS WE SAW DEVA ALLOWS YOU TO DO. And not just slow float, Deva outsped full charge six tail naruto pissed and ready to kill using flight and surfing where Gravity moved him. Thst was mid charging chibaku so its even a passive ability the path has.
Nagato just letting them chat and figure out chibaku is all on Kabuto. He could increase the pull even greater then Deva based on the fact his version of the abilities are far stronger, and he has infinite chakra now. No stammina issues.
Being blitzed/suprised also only occured because as Kabuto states, he didnt know of Kabutos sebsory ability.
How did the summons get all blinded? Kabuto left them as sitting ducks. Didnt keep them mobile as Nagato did ad pain every fight. Dudnt even bother keeping the charmeleon invisiblr or split the dogs! Naruto catches amateradu on chakra he tosses away. The dogs can just split amaterasu off.
All based on white hair is "tasked" to capture Naruto and Bee. And itachi reprogrammed himself. So Nagato is easily able he prepairs amaterasu, but not tasked to fight his ally in the task.
This forces Kabuto to DIRECTLY control him. Wich we see in how he fights, and by how he hokds the handsign and directly commands/comments what he does
So you downplay a 3 on one, imply Kabuto scales to Obito or Madara which is unbelievably absurd as he doesn’t even seem to scale to White Zetsu Orochimaru who in turn doesn’t scale to Tobirama. And now because a sound based genjutsu works a doujutsu should work against a stronger Sharingan… it should also go without saying Nagato was Way stronger than any individual Path’s. Bringing up Nagato’s summons like that isn’t 100% his own power set while ignoring B and Naruto to try and scale Nagato vs Itachi is absolute clown shoes.
Cuz I will throw Jamba Juice at you
The bijudama probably did most of the work blowing up chibaku tensei. Nagato is also once again fighting to capture not kill. Kabuto is ignoring itatchi.
You should do lord mu vs gengetsu hozuki next
Personally, I don't agree that itachi is suppressed. It is stated many times that edo tensei bodies react automatically and their will has nothing to say. So while Naruto may be limited to talk (while alive), there's no evidence that itachi is limited in speed here, rather it's his top speed with a basic sharingan. Pretty good movie
When I say suppressed I just mean not FP via not using MS. Which I agree is a result of the Edo Tensei auto counter
@@ThunderGodTG However, sharingan does not change the speed of movements, which was proven by the fight between rock lee and sasuke, only reaction, so even without MS it should be the top speed of his body.
And another maybe flaw, when you said that sasuke's rinnengan is higher than nagato (which is of course true) it canceled out the genjutsu cast by madara's 3rd eye, which is also higher than the average rinnegan.
I will keep the rest of the comments so that there is something left for my channel and a movie about this popular topic xd
Yeah that's mainly why I said perception capabilities and arguably stats, at least when an MS user actually uses their MS. So Itachi/Sasuke would just see attacks coming better and be able to respond accordingly if they're able to. If you wanna say it amps everything when they do that's fine I was just being conservative for the video.
ThunderGod said "Okay Itachi simps, cut that shit out"
Nah I’m gonna be honest both sides are meat munchers 😂 they both have arguments that don’t make any sense to me
I was wondering
Could you do a video of who would win between movie momoshiki and anime momoshiki
One of best duo ever in anime history
11:59 I know this isn’t what we’re talking about, but kakashi is a genjutsu god in order to go toe to toe with obito who can control perfect jinjurachis. And I don’t want to hear that obito was going easy, because easy would be controlling kakashi to remove the tag.
That...... is actually a very good point 🤔
Maybe when Kurama gave him a massive amount of chakra, he also amped his sharingan?
@@taecampus true, obito had been controlling jinjuriku and fighting for a while at that point whereas kalashi just got all his chakra refueled and maybe more from kurama.
@@taecampus still very impressive in my eyes though, saying that kakashi was never really showed to be a genjutsu user despite having a sharigan. He realeased himself out of a weak genjutsu that Sakura was able to release from in early part one and was bodied by itatchi and those are the only genjutsu moments I can think of off the top of my head that involves kakashi.
If ur talking about inside the kamui dimension, it’s highly possible obito could have genjutsu stunned kakashi long enough for a kill if he rly wanted but the purpose was for obito to fuck with kakashis head and I’m pretty sure the entire time obito had literally no fear of kakashi actually ever killing him. Obito let kakashi stab him in the heart to destroy the tag but also show kakashi how”heartless” is he
Yes, the RimmingGun is a great eye technique ^^
When itachi was talking to naruto and bee over a tree then nagato showed up and shot a shinra tensei the whole forcet got destroyed and then nagato went after bee and naruto and itachi was off screen for a long, that shinra tensei definitely killed itachi even naruto and bee felt it

Cool, Okay
The lack of mobility and the difference in speed is what ruins it for Nagato. Nagato's AP is stronger with Planetary, sure. But in a death match he never even gets that far, Itachi blitzes with the Totsuka Blade basically just as he did in the series at the end. In the end they are very relative though, they're comparable in almost every aspect.
I don't have a ton of faith in Tsukuyomi being fully effective against Nagato because his dual Rinnegan likely retain some of the Sharingan's own ability to resist and counter ocular Genjutsu. It probably would still work, since like Kakashi, Nagato does not have the kekkei genkai to match his eyes, BUT, this is dual Rinnegan we're talking about, not a single base three tomoe Sharingan. Amaterasu gets pushed off or absorbed, so Itachi would have to result to his spirit weapons. But here's an interaction NOBODY ever talks about except for me...
If Itachi were to get caught in Planetary Devastation, and let's say he tries Yasaka Beads first and that doesn't work, he still has his spirit weapons to fall back on. He can either try to use the Totsuka Blade to destroy it, or, and this one is far more likely to work, allow the gravitational pull to draw him in, aim the Yata Mirror at the core, when the core hits the Yata Mirror, all of its gravitational energy will be reflected back onto itself, completely obliterating the core. A basic understand of energy transfer would lead anyone to this conclusion. The Yata Mirror negs Planetary, so it doesn't matter if Nagato's AP is higher, Itachi can reflect it. The Yata Mirror followed by a blitz with the Totsuka Blade is all Itachi needs to deal with Nagato or really 99% of the verse honestly.
Ayyyyy reupload 😂
When both are alive and healthy Nagato slams itachi no doubt. Edo itachi vs edo nagato is a little closer to a draw but I still think nagato wins high diff. Alive itachi would just end up going blind mid fight, nagatos chakra is on a whole other level when he was healthy. Now if itachi had ems that might be a different story.
Edo Nagato seems to have been purposely nerfed by Kishimoto to easily write him out of the story. He was for some reason brought back with no chakra and kept crippled despite him both having the Edo healing factor & access to the Asura path which should easily be able to fix his legs. It was purely plot induced stupidity that Nagato was even comparable to Itachi. Pain who is weaker than Edo Nagato bodied all of Konoha BEFORE he even began fighting Naruto… do you realize how much Chakra that means crippled near death Nagato had to have had? And even after the fight he still had enough chakra to Dragonball everyone back to life but for some reason he was Edo’d like he was immediately after Rinne rebirth.
@@thefloridaman41 All these itachi fan boys just can’t accept that fact, finally someone who actually paid attention to the show. Nagato when he was healthy could easily be close to Madara in strength without his rennegan. People just don’t realize how over powered he was, and the show never really went into much detail about his life and his feats. I believe that he was the strongest akatsuki member until obito during the war arc, I could see him taking out orange mask obito in a high diff fight. But obviously not war arc obito for obvious reasons. Think about it, every single clan feared the uzumaki even the uchiha and the senju, that’s why all of the clans teamed up and destroyed the uzumaki. They had the most chakra out of all the clans and they possessed unknown power and some crazy sealing techniques that could rival the strongest clans. Nagato is an uzumaki with a rennegan, that is a lethal combo when you really start to think about it.
Finally someone who gets it! And we not even talking bout if nagato use pain
no one seriously believes edo Itachi > Edo Nagato bro
I think nagato could win cause it took Itachi Naruto and bee to beat a nagato who wasn't even conscious .
have u even watched the video?
@@epokrandomv.2648 just did saw his argument against my point .
The thing about that is Kabuto was actually fighting BETTER than Nagato was
LITERALLY Nagato got hit by Amaterasu and was like “damn- ima die” and Kabuto had to take over to make Nagato remember that he can absorb chakra…it’s a really really dumb scene but it happened none the less
Also Itachi was going easy because he was trying to teach Naruto
In any case he can escape with Izanagi. Then Tostuka stab like in the manga.
Yet, Nagato is still an amazing fighter. It could go both ways.
Itachi has just some ridiculous (but great design) insta GG techniques.

Is this like a remaster or sum 😭?
😂 I didn’t like the original video and unlisted it like a day after I dropped it, wanted to get really into the topic
This is not a comment on the video, per se, but I feel like these are more or less the upper echelons of Shinobi when considering who they are as individuals. They are powerful as hell, like unreasonably so. But what bothers me is when people start saying that Itachi could beat Madara, or that Pain was a mid Naruto boss before the final boss, because Pain came before Madara/Obito/Kaguya. The latter three were infused with essentially the powers of literal gods, and you really can't compare an individual Shinobi's skills against alien mother of all Chakra, or guys who are reincarnation of shinobi gods infused the powers of all tailed beasts. It kinda just puts a spotlight on this insane power scaling that happend in the latter half of Shippuden. Personally, I think Naruto should have ended with Pain. He was Naruto's perfect foil, presented Naruto an opportunity to win things his way (talk no jutsu), and it earned him the ultimate respect of the villagers, which is what he was after all along.
Oh boy time for wars to spawn again
itachi catching nagat off guard made absolutely 0 sense, nagato is a sensor he should have been able to keep track of him with the smoke(and even with smoke the paths of pains weaker than nagato were able to defend themselves in the smoke), even if his summonings got his eyes filled with kunais that would have been enough to warn nagato that itachi is about to go after him next.
You almost anticipated my moves. Almost.
Great vid, just 1 thing, Kaguya effortlessly absorbed Sasuke's Susanoo
She actually melted it, she only absorbed Amaterasu, any other time she taijutsu bodied it, at that point Kaguya was able to merge with nature and use heat in the lava area, or the snow in the snow area like when she trapped Naruto appreciate the love on the vid ✊🏻
@@ThunderGodTG She did neither, I'm pretty sure she used that vacuum gauntlet attack to shatter it.
I'll talk about a few opinions on later points, particularly Gedo Statue, Planetary Devastation, and Soul Snatch.
I don't see any reason why Itachi couldn't use Totsuka to seal or injure the Gedo Statue, regardless of form, even if Nagato can summon it.
In terms of Planetary Devastation, another very valid way for Itachi to deal with it (that would ultimately prolong the fight yet give him advantage in a few ways for the "next move" is to charge towards the center and cut/stab it with Totsuka Blade, as that should basically render it useless via sealing the chakra that makes it or completely slicing the stability of it. One could counter with a potential "why didn't he" or something to that effect, but, really, it's simple to see why he wouldn't: (1) potential prolonged endangerment of Bee and Naruto and (2) there's no use in gaining a vantage point for your next move, if you have a way to perceivably end the fight with another set up.
Regarding the Soul Snatch, we also don't see how long it will last or if it would work on an Edo individual. Not to say it wouldn't move the soul, but said soul is bound to the living world and will have a body reform around it anyway, as is the nature of reanimation (that being their bodies could be completely destroyed and they'd still exist/regen). Essentially 3 issues arise. One is that it will not "kill" a reanimated individual in terms of forcing the soul to the afterlife (bound to the Edo Summon Contract). Two is that the body may die, but it will reform around the individual's soul (perceivably). Three: even if the soul/chakra body is held for longer than we see in the series, it presumably takes chakra for the jutsu to be used, while the reanimated soul being held can essentially continue to fight the jutsu without having chakra zapped away, since they have an endless supply that they wouldn't be using.
To further discuss things, there's no reason to say Itachi couldn't hold his soul, like Naruto (since Naruto used his hands as well), while he uses other jutsu to at least attempt helping himself, like Amaterasu and/or Susano'o.
In essence, then, it seems that it comes down to an eternal battle, if we don't simply say Itachi wins some way or another, as he will continue to adapt to Nagato over time, while Nagato doesn't hold the same mental capacity to keep up with Itachi and adapt as fast.
Nagato has the mental capacity to trick Jiraiya with a shadow clone, take on the entire leaf village although does get caught off guard several times. Itachi alone would not be too much for Nagato in a 1 on 1. The debate is whether Itachi is adaptable to Nagato. If he is adaptable, his best genjutsu Trump card he used against Kabuto would actually win the fight.
Otherwise, he gets blitzed up to the mid duration of a typical Naruto fight.
@@calint123 I mean EMS Sasuke Scaling dictates he isn't getting blitzed anywhere in the fight. Planetary Devastation I've given a way out to. Soul snatch is as I said debatable (not a ko either way though).
Better arguments for the dude with better physical stats (that being the one who could've beheaded Sage Kabuto, if he didn't have to let him live).
@@charlestonian7110what tells you that the Totsuka Blade, a sealing jutsu, can slash through Chibaku Tensei, a gravitational jutsu? This is just fanboying, Itachi gets cooked
@@tomasbedoya2901 I said it can cut through the core of it, as the core has factually been destroyed before and Totsuka Blade has a property of being able to cut physical and chakra bodies, as it and Yata Mirror are both ethereal.
@@charlestonian7110 same principles for the fallacy. Nothing indicates ever that the Totsuka blade can slash through a gravity orb, it is literal gravity
I know that I'm kind of late to this, or I may have missed this point of discussion in the video, however, it is worth mentioning that in a hypothetical fight between both of them in their healthy and alive versions, Nagato can summon the Gedo statue, and use that broken soul dragon jutsu that he used on Hanzo's army that may or may not end the fight right there. You could make an argument for Itachi being able to seal the attack or the Gedo Mazo itself if Nagato uses it but, I don't think there's anything that supports the Totsuka blade being able to absorb or seal another spiritual/ethereal weapon.
Also, it’s implied that edo tensei rinnegan cannot summon the gedo statue.
I do mention that in the video
I think everyone keeps forgetting that Nagano is a cripple and could barely walk. he's not not mobile like itachi. and everyone thinks itachis mangekyou is the end all be all as if he can spam it all day long. 1 tsyukiyomi against kakashi and 1 amaterasu against jiraiya put him out of commission.
It can go either way but nagato has more ways of winning. Itachi honestly only has one option which is totsuka blade. And that may not work in a 1v1 between the two since nagato can rapidly spam all his hax and can use chibaku tensei possibly multiple times. His only problem as an edo is his mobility which kabuto explained was what cost him the fight.
Tsukiyomi isn’t an answer??
@@auzzieankai8354 No…Nagato has shared vision, and if it was I’m sure itachi would’ve used it on him. Plus he has the rinnegan which is highly resistant to visual genjutsu, I mean they’re the only dojutsu that can resist infinite tysukuyomi
@@sixpathshashira nagato only has 1 way of winning what are you talking about and that soul snatching also itachi can just blitz him with ametaratsu again and seal him of just out right seal him with toska blade and itachi even stated nagato has sensory ( he winced kabuto so itachi could track him ) and he couldn’t react to itachi
@@ZaharJudah Amateratsu won’t do anything, nagato can just push it off or absorb it. And he has two ways of winning, chibaku tensei and soul snatching. Totsuka blade can be avoided by using summons for mobility or just repelling it
@@sixpathshashira chibaku tensei isn’t a win con and ametaratsu can be used since it takes a while for nagato to push it off of him and if itachi uses it on him it immobilizes him he can toska blade him while it’s burning him
Tis like saying,
Rinnegan Vs. Sharinggan
It's funny that this is argued. It depends entirely on strategy. Itachi could easily kill Nagato, just as Nagato could easily kill Itachi. They are both more than capable of instant kills, depending on how they go about it.
Amaturasu is so weird. Sasuke hits 8 tails with it and 8 tails is screaming in pain, sasuke with itachis eye hits obito with it and obito is panicking (people say obito let himself get hit with it to impress sasuke that he can get out of it but why would obito panic like that if he wanted to impress sasuke? And then say he'd be dead if itachi had knowledge on one of his abilities? It's just a weird argument). Then the flames that were causing 8 tails to tell in pain landed on Karin And only burnt her robe and scuffed up her back a bit. Then a samurai gets lit on fire and is chilling for minutes until kankuro removed his armor. Raikage gets it and is chilling but you can say the lightning armor is blocking it from touching his skin so no pain but then you're saying a kekkei genkai nature type isn't strong enough to break through a normal nature type element. Fire in Naruto is always crap. Look at asumas burning ash. Did like no damage. And you can even argue that burning ash did more damage than amaturasu did to karin since it showed real burn marks on asuma and amaturasu just showed scuff marks on karin
It's never implied for them to be relative,Nagato is levels above Itachi
💀
Nigga haven’t watched the show
The problem with this is nobody mentions intelligence. Itachi is hands down one of the smartest Shinobi which how kishimoto made him appear by not giving him a legit loss. Nagato isn't that smart when it comes to battle IQ.

How are edo characters performing animal summons if they have no blood? Maybe the rinnegan doesnt require a contract. But Ma and Pa seemed to think they knew the species
That's the thing.. there isn't really a blood contract. The summons simply belong to the rinnegan probably because of lore reasons. The first people in the history of Naruto probably assigned those summons to the rinnegan.
Well, it's Madara's Rinnegan, so perhaps it's a contract by eyes. Who knows. Each of those abilities is just way too OP.
ending the debate uh?
Nagato’s Rinnegan was an EMS though, so there’s a solid argument that he could break out of tsukuyomi
I think nagato gets this . His raw power can’t be matched. Plus it wasn’t nagato vs itachi , bee and Naruto . It was kabuto controlling him. If he himself was using his body the way he normally would . There would have been a major difference in the outcome . Even kabuto stated he didn’t know everything about pains abilities
I think itachi's intellect is a factor here. He's likely relative if not superior to Shikamaru and Shikaku in terms of intelligence and is shown to be the kind of character that sees a technique and dissects it pretty much instantly. If he's at all relative to his opponent, then this is not insignificant.
I agree, Itachi would be comparable or superior to even Minato's Battle IQ.

Also I don’t know if this is in the manga or whatever cause I don’t read it but when you watch the show and pain lures away Naruto as the 6 tails to do planetary devastation nagato says “I’ve brought tendo close enough” or something like that implying that taking the paths of pain that far away from himself and using chakra was depleting his chakra even more than usual if he was closer.
Great video
One thing I will say that is always overlooked
Itachi didn’t know about rasenshuriken or B being a jinchuriki
He says use your strongest attacks but giving he isn’t aware of those abilities it indicates he’s confident his attack can beat CT but is playing it safe.
Naruto hadn’t developed the jutsu when itachi was alive and interacted with him, and itachi never saw any long range jutsu from naruto.
B was kept hidden for years and even obito had no clue who b was or what he looked like
Itachi sees the tentacle but that doesn’t matter as nobody knew what the 8 tails or the host looked like and itachi makes 0 indication of this. Sasuke had to basically I vestigate to find out who B was
Before watching the video: as long as you're not an Itachi stan, or say "but Tsukuyomi 🤓", you already know that Tendo alone solos Itachi. High difficulty if you want to be like that.
That's when he's alive. And Pain is practically immune to genjutsu. Boom there's a massive amount of Itachi's arsenal that's useless
Edo Nagato has ALL SIX paths of pain in one. I'm pretty sure the Preta path would allow Nagato to absorb the Susano'o 😐. So there goes another thing Itachi stans bring up.
I'd argue that it's not even a fair fight. But, again, I'll throw "high difficulty" to be nice, and I'm sure there are other tricks Itachi has that you guys can bring up. But even with that, Nagato just isn't losing. Not even mentioning Itachi's Chakra AIDS. Nagato is definitely at least outlasting Itachi while alive, and even Edo, Nagato is just too broken
I'll edit this if I'm "wrong" by the end so I can say a rebuttal 🗿
And I'm an honest enough person to admit if I'm stupid on something
It is not a fair fight at all, the fact that it is even a debate baffles me
Do you have an argument against tsukuyomi?
Pain is most definitely not immune to genjutsu as we literally saw 3 of them get trapped in it. We also see rinnegan Sasuke caught in visual genjutsu.
Susanoo is spiritual, as are tutska blade, yata magatama and yata mirror, so they cannot be absorbed.
You haven't managed to get a single thing right
@@gamexyz2266 when were Pain or rinnegan Sasuke caught in a visual genjutsu? If they are spiritual manofestations, how are they not hard countered by the King of Hell? What use is any of that against a chibaku tensei? Itachi has nothing, and why would he? The Mangekyo Sharinngan was literally written to be weaker than the rinnegan
@@tomasbedoya2901 1) Sasuke in Sasuke Retsuden novel 2) Pain was caught in audi genjutsu by Jiraya, never said he was caught in visual genjutsu 3) How are they? They're legendary spiritual weapons, and King of hell was destroyed when Itachi used Yata Mirror to save Naruto from it 4) Susanos should be relative to tailed beasts, and 8 tail of HALF of Nine Tails broke out. Additionally Yata mirror ensures he cant be crushed by rocks, and Tutska blade can cut him out, that's besides the fact he can also destroy it piece by piece with Yasaka Magatama
This is severely one sided 💀
All of itachi Arsenal gets countered because nagato could just absorb them 😂
He could repel or absorb the Amaterasu
He could repel or pull itachi away from his susanoo
He could pin itachi down using the mechanical path and the steal his soul
He could use the summonings to put severe pressure on itachi
The moment chibaku tensei is used, this fight is over ☠️
You would have to be severely generous to say tsukuyomi could do nagato in
The fight is only drawn out this long as nagato is coming in this fight while nerfed(he can’t walk properly and hasn’t drained enough chakra to end it fast)
Alive nagato vs alive itachi (no sickness). Gedo statue: ☠️
Did you even watch the video or just come to comment your own ideas?
It's actually way more simple
If Nagato starts without chakra, like how he started out in edo before taking Bee's chakra he gets blitzed with the totsuka blade
If he starts with chakra, he wins high diff
Let's not forget Sasuke is basically the nerfed fusion of these two(because once Sasuke got their abilities they were either nerfed or forgotten so Sasuke wouldn't one shot Naruto)
20:38 he can put one in each hand while smacking it with the blade at the same time. My head cannon argument would be he was saving the sword to catch nagato off guard but at that point when he has to save his life he’ll bring it out as nagato still won’t understand the abilities if he doesn’t already know about the sword.
I think it’s fair to assume that, it’s just the diction Itachi uses doesn’t imply he can solo it at all. That’s just me though
@@ThunderGodTG I feel you, that’s why I said my head cannon, I know it’s a reach but that’s the only way I really see him get 3 attacks at simultaneous potency to hit at the same time.
Double Amaterasu enhanced yasaka beads would go crazy
Nagato just wins. It took kcm 1 naruto, 8 tails bee, and itachi to beat him
Alive prime Nagato vs edo Itachi probably slaps. Itachi was one of the few characters who got stronger as an edo. We saw what the true rinnegan was capable of with Madara after he was revived so a prime revived Nagato would be nearly unstoppable. It’s arguable he could break tsukuyomi since his eyes are technically upgraded EMS
Itachi has great counters for the summons and their all seeing vision with his shuriken jutsu. But he doesn’t have the power to deal with chubaku tensei alone. That’s all.
False, it’d be fair to say that itachi made up 1/3 of the power to destroy CT. Using that knowledge itachi could most definitely make 2 more yasaka magatama beads.
He does have the power to deal with it alone
He only didn’t because he was LITERALLY trying to teach Naruto about team work…(which Naruto should already have known at this point but whatever)
Itachi can literally just blast the chubaku tensei 3 times instead of once if you truly believe Itachi was going all out instead of easy
Crazy how these dudes claim that he can deal with it alone then give head cannon reasonings as evidence.
@@Rck-vert what head cannon did i provide itachis susanoo can create 4 arms so it would be disingenuous to day he couldnt make 4 yasaka beads 😂Also its fair to say he used it as a teaching moment for naruto and bee considering he gave naruto a speech after the fight about relying on allies
@@2SSKenny saying Itachi made up 1/3 of the destructive power is head cannon.
I’m not saying he can’t make 2 or 4 beads at once, just that the way ur hyping the beads up and issuing “power levels” to them is head cannon.
This is not even remotely a close fight. Not sure why it’s constantly being displayed as an “it can go either way” type of battle… because it can’t.
Nagato hard counters every single thing in Itachi’s arsenal and slams him with deva powers. For the love of me I can’t see the “debate” in this fight 😂
Exactly itachi is outmatch and out gunned in every single damn way, itachi’s main win factor is the totsuka blade that’s only it. idk how long he would even be able to hold that up for anyways, he lacks the fire power to even remotely challenge nagato in this fight 😂
itachi would easily get slammed with a chibaku tensei alone that shit, even if he has his susanoo up negato will just pull him out of it like madara did with madara that’s just like 5% of his whole arsenal. Glad we got people living in reality and keeping it real, only itachi fanboys think this is a fight 😂
I think Gray-haired Nagato's feats are above Itachi's physical feats. Itachi can utilize minor genjutsu to throw Bee off & avoid being hit. But, against both Naruto & Bee I don't see Itachi putting up the same fight without susano'o.
The physically enhanced feats of their eyes are in fact different. But, their overall feats aren't. I just wanted to clarify this much for the first tenth of your video.
I also don't think Itachi's Mangekyo abilities are beyond gray haired Nagato's ability to handle or counter. You said it's heavily debatable whether or not Nagato was fighting to be passive, which is a really, really good point to make. It seems to me his summons were pre-occupied by Naruto & he was vulnerable being in the air & on top of this, Itachi is an opportunist. Every time he attacked, it was timed in combination with what was happening all around them.
Without Bee & Naruto there as extra bodies, I don't feel Itachi would have the same advantages against gray-haired Nagato.
I do see by 8:10 you're going in-depth on what I just said. You are impressive.
I also don't agree that Itachi could place him under genjutsu. Obito doesn't have 2 rinnegan. I actually don't remember him being put under genjutsu, but if memory serves right, you only need to look into a regular eye to get caught in a genjutsu. 2 rinnegan, an immense amount of chakra, keen sensory.
There's an argument to be made that Itachi couldn't put Edo Nagato under genjutsu when Nagato was consciously aware of himself - which is a dead giveaway that genjutsu probably wouldn't exist if they had a real fight.
Everything you're saying past that point is very relevant. Even the finger sign genjutsu would probably work. Anything non-visual would probably work. Also, his genjutsu trump card he used against Kabuto would 100% work IMO.
This is just my opinion. I could be wrong about the Tsukuyomi not working. I just believe any other genjutsu would work on Nagato as shown with Jiraiya & even the interrogator managing to place him under genjutsu, even though it backfired.
He's the third coming of the six paths really
Is madara second ?
I think the guy who won the first time should probably be favored to win again
This fight is a fun one to speculate: as it goes into two different ways - Who is stronger? and - Who is the better fighter? This fight really is fun to theorize about - and I still do not think there can be any genuine conditions that gurantee the two a clear cut winner. Nagato has the greater chakra pool and is thus stronger than Itachi and naturally would have the greater durability, yet cannot properly hit Itachi - while Itachi has the skill and speed to out maneuver Nagato's attacks, yet cannot overpower or outlast Nagato. Strength vs Dexterity - the legendary matchup that no one can agree which one is better.
Dexterity is heavily debatable. In terms of weaving multiple ninjutsu, altering chakra frequency, enhancing physical strength & sensing chakra build-up -> That level of mastery goes to Nagato.
It's easy to say Itachi is a better taijutsu & weapons specialist in many ways compared to Nagato.
Yet, in multiple instances, Nagato tagged people who should be really good at Taijutsu. He tagged Jiraiya & Kakashi with the rinnegan rod.
I don't think Nagato is a slouch to Itachi in every way. It's actually hard to give Itachi much leverage in this match up unless Nagato had more limitations or barriers like being in his crippled state.
Like the video creator said, the Rinnegan link is too OP & the soul snatch / king of hell are instant-death abilities. Itachi has to be inside the Susano'o to avoid that win condition.
I’m curious how we scale the durability of the susanoo, and the offensive capabilities of the planetary devastation. Because it can be argued that the imperfect full armored susanoo can break Itachi out of chubaku tensei. Madara’s skeletal form was able to break out of Garaa’s sealing pyramid that seemed big enough to engulf a tailed beast. We know that the 9 tails in its 8th tailed form was able to force himself out of it, confirming there is a limit. The full susanoo scales around the 9 tails whom is easily the strongest tailed beast. We saw Sasuke use it to seal all of them, however it can be argued this depends on how powerful the user is since he used his 6paths rennegan. I think Itachi’s susanoo would be able to manifest and force himself out of it with the totska blade piercing through the ball since there’s a limit to how much earth the ball can absorb.
Nagato can’t absorb the Amaterasu fire, and it would press a lot of the paths of pains as the fire has a non stop burning feature. If Itachi pulls out the totska blade, I can’t see the paths being able to get the bodies back because the gourd is a sealing jutsu, and if it’s a sealing jutsu, would Nagato be perceiving the same thing as that path would? As long as Itachi has the susanoo, I can’t see any of the paths being durable enough to survive and create an opening to Itachi himself without him killing them off quickly. Lastly, with the speed on which he figured out the shared vision (with no prior interaction mind you), he would likely aim for the king of hell first. Nagato would have better luck picking at Itachi till he runs out of stamina and hope the susanoo stops. But as we saw, his susanoo stood up literally until he dropped dead. I’m taking Itachi.
That Nagato did not have enough chakra because of the shinra tensei he used beforehand. Also he promts that he can make it bigger after kyubi breaks out of it.
Most of what you said is inaccurate. There’s no way the upper body Susanoo gets out of the Chibaku Tensei by saturating it, what kind of logic is that? Nagato CAN absorve the Amaterasu fire, the series does it’s best to show that Amaterasu is useless at that level, it is a no factor. The king of Hell can be made invisible and intangible as seen in the Pain arc, and Susanoo can be absorbed, it is just chakra. Even if it wasn’t, the intangible king of hell can absorb souls, Itachi has no defensive tools against Nagato. His only offense is Totsuka, and for Nagato to be hit by it he would have to just not move
I know I’m late but just seeing that Seth ripped of your video and didn’t even send you some love just a link makes me hate him even more
He followed me on twitter and stuff, so I really wasn’t pressed but, I am grateful a lot of you guys care about that super humbling to see and I appreciate it
