[@thorn62_yt53]

He got his arms sealed which mainly caused him intense pain and not being able to use chakra with his hands but cause he kept swapping bodies more often then the 3 years the bodies normally would’ve lasted due to his arms practically dying. But when he did swap he was able to sort of use his arms just not to mold chakra for jutsus

[@airricoutdoors2045]

True^^ The arms Hiruzen took was basically the arms of Oro.’s soul. So after that, he’d have to transfer bodies more frequently to use his arms, but couldn’t do Justus. Even that didn’t completely stop him cause he could easily fight using seals and summonings, which he was capable of doing without even weaving hand signs.

[@Uknowjusticemill]

He meant no arms, as in no ability to use hand signs and Ninjutsu, he could use Taijutsu however.

[@redtube8667]

Nagato dogwalks Itachi. A Nagato on Autopilot came very close to soloing KCM Naruto, Bee, AND Itachi. Like, there is no debate on this. It literally took the help of the two strongest tailed beasts for Itachi to have a chance. I'm convinced most fans of Naruto don't actually pay attention.

[@TrafalgarWaterDLaw-dl5cm]

@@redtube8667 Well not autopilot. Kabuto directly controlled him. Didnt know of his sensory and used him and his ability poorly because of it. And still nearly won a 1 v 3. But totally agree people really dont pay attention.

[@jamessauls7533]

​@@TrafalgarWaterDLaw-dl5cmand honestly, Nagato is smarter than Kabuto and has a very keen sense of what weaknesses he has which is why he created the puppets to begin with. The man used his powers unlike any other user in the series by far and he never slips up at all, he is definitely underrated on intelligence too

[@matijajunger4800]

Bro watch the show. Itachi saved Bee and Naruto from Nagato. They were not even a factor. They together destroyed the chibaku tensei yes. Because Itachi wanted to make the point that Naruto shouldn't try to do everything by himself like he did. Killer Bee could have made a way bigger or more Bijuu bomb, Naruto Multiple or/bigger rasenshuriken and Itachi throw more Yagatama beats with his full susanno and enhanced them with amaterasu. Each of them could have used way stronger attacks but it wasn't necessary.

On the upside real life is also like this too so you have a better advantage against people like this when it comes to making money businesses etc so personally I can appreciate stupid people.

[@jonassorensen347]

being edo tensei gives Itachi way more advantage because his sickness and natural lack of chakra compared to other fighters of his level. I do agree Nagato wins if he is at his strongest but if he is as frail as he was resurrected then i thing itachi will win. Itachi is just so crazy overpowered with infinite chakra but i don't think it will be 100% free even if nagato is at full strenght I think he will win but it will be medium-high difficulty

[@SpammytheHedgehog]

[@alexanderatanasov5837]

Honestly, the only reason people underestimate Nagato against people like Itachi, Obito or Madara is because Nagato got so little screen time, while thw rest were actually used well by Kishi, that it's too hard to remember the tiny bits which tell us how strong Nagato was

[@sixpathshashira]

One really big issue that people forget about Edo Nagato, is he was still being controlled by Kabuto, someone who was shown several times not knowing all the ins and outs of each character he revived and their respective abilities. With Nagato he just spammed abilities without much thought and didn't even use his sensory ability (Which would pretty much make Nagato impossible to sneak up on along with the shared vision of the rinnegan)

[@akhilscott2817]

@@sixpathshashira he absolutely did use the sensory abilities. It just that Itachi was there and aware of those abilities so he went for the eyes with shurikens imbued with phoenix firestyle. I still agree that it would’ve been difficult if it was Nagato who was in control

[@sixpathshashira]

@ When did Kabuto use Nagato's sensory abilities? Nagato only used them himself when he still had white hair, but after Kabuto took full control it didn't show him using them. I feel like Nagato would've been able to sense Itachi's full susanoo hiding behind smoke given he sensed amateratsu before it even activated. Itachi went for the eyes yes, which stopped shared vision from working but Nagato himself is a sensory type shinobi

[@akhilscott2817]

@ I just went back to watch the fight to see if I was chatting shit. He 100% uses the sensory abilities. It was when he was pulling Naruto’s soul out so bee had to intervene, but the summon thing that sucks souls and the frog summon both saw him before nagato did

[@akhilscott2817]

@ not only that but Itachi timed his attack at the perfect moment. The 2 summons that had noticed bee were then sent to deal with bee, so pain was on Naruto, and the summons were in bee, so there was a moment where Itachi could dash in without being seen. Rinnegan sensory abilities r kinda mid compared to Sage mode sensory abilities

[@sixpathshashira]

@ I think we're talking about two different things though. You're talking about the rinnegan's shared vision, which like you explained is how the frog and king of hell (thing that sucks souls) saw Bee allowing Nagato/Kabuto to react to him. What I'm talking about is the sensory ability of Nagato alone, separate from the rinnegan. It's how he managed to detect where Kabuto was hiding (which is how Itachi knew where to find him later on), and sense Itachi using Amateratsu. Think of characters like Karin, Minato, or Tobirama... they all have insane sensory abilities just because they are sensory type shinobi. Other examples are Mu and Ino

Imagine an AU where Pain finds out that Itachi was a Leaf spy and decides to deal with Itachi, himself.

Itachi fans takes debates too seriously. They have fragile ego. They cannot acknowledge how much of a beast Nagato is. They just can't conceive their fav character is beaten by someone of the same tier of level, they won't have trouble accepting Itachi being weaker than Hashirama or Sasuke bcs It's an obvious thing, but when It's Nagato or Obito who are closer to him It hurts them personally.

[@DavidLucian]

In my opinion Itachi is one of the most Unique, Authentic and Influential characters from the series. The thing that people underestimate about Itachi fights/encounters, isn't just his power, (it's mainly writters or Kishimoto's fault for making Itachi seem or to look very powerful throughout the series) but how smart and intelligent he is during various situations, he never, ever underestimates his opponents because of his composure and his way of being, the level of thinking he's on honestly dwars most people in the series, with only people like Minato and Shikaku comparable with him. More precisly, Itachi isn't just any ordinary Shinobi also, he pretty much knows and he's also aware that all strong opponents have weaknesses (including himself), and he specializes in finding those "weaknesses" and exploiting them ("*Even the strongest of opponents always has a weakness*" - Uchiha Itachi) because he's that type of character who can exceed almost any expectations. Itachi is very unique and authentic, especially in the factor of facing various encounters approach, his unpredictability in his way of fighting style approach it's his key factor in all of his encounters. Being blind or nearly blind has never slowed him down (especially when he's pretty much serious, but that's the point, he has never go all out against anyone during the series.) Itachi it's that type of character who can exceed almost any expectations. (at least that's what we were shown in the anime by the creator Masashi Kishimoto). Moral of the story, never underestimate Itachi. He did more sick than most healthy ninjas do in their entire life. In my opinion No One should underestimate such an unpredictable Shinobi like Itachi, even Madara (I won't say that Itachi can beat him, but at least he will be pretty much able to put a decent fight that Madara will also be impressed in my opinion). Also how can some of you guys even consider that Totsuka Blade it's slow when no such speed feat has been shown through the Shippuden that state it that it is slow? All of you are assuming it to be slow it may not be the case... Its not that the sword is unavoidable but it clearly has a very long range and is a very long blade. If you look at the manga, Naruto, Bee and Itachi are all relatively small from Nagato's point of view, and you can see the Totsuka Blade extending all the way from Itachi, piercing through Nagato, and still managing to nearly pop out toward the reader out of the page. I would say its fast because Kabuto coudldn't even react to it, and its not like Nagato was completely immobile to the point that he couldn't sidestep the blade. Also, Kabuto controlling people from far away is never stated to inhibit the Edos' reaction speed in any way. Being controlled by someone thousands of miles away didn't stop the Third Raikage from dodging KCM Naruto's Rasenshuriken. And as for Orochimaru, the sword struck him in between syllables of a word during his speech. I think that that is pretty fast. Pair the Totuska Blade with a good feint and its lethal because its ethereal, meaning it can pierce through any object. If the sword didn't live up to its reputation then Orochimaru wouldn't seek it out. People need to stop downplaying Itachi and denying the very clear speed feats of Totsuka. There is no room for interpretations here. The advantage of being an Uchiha, especially for Itachi and Madara, is that during an encounter against them, they always have a counter because of their unpredictable way of fighting factor, they don't run out of options or techniques, they almost always have a counter in their arsenal, even forbidden jutsus seems irrellevant against them, only a few Uchihas know a certain way to approach the situation with a certain and effective technique, that's why is hard/difficult to fight against them in my opinion. ☯️ 🤷🏻‍♂️ Here are the things that make Itachi so formidable. Tsukuyomi - A genjutsu so powerful that you literally can't escape it unless you have the same blood as Itachi, as stated by Itachi himself and proven later by Sasuke, or you're a jinchuriki. Jinchuriki are supposed to be immune to genjutsu but it hasn't been proven, but when Bee was fighting Edo Nagato and Itachi with Naruto, he said to watch out for Tsukuyomi explicitly. Literally 99% of all opponents fighting Itachi have no way of stopping Tsukuyomi. You could have the power to split the planet in half and it wouldn't matter. (Want to know why? - Kakashi pretty much state it in the actual anime and manga that Tsukuyomi it's such a dangerous Genjutsu Technique because it happen in a instant, even if you realize that you are trapped in the Tsukuyomi, it will be too late, because Itachi could approach you during that time in the real world (or he can use an Explosive Clone to approach you without you even realizing it in time and he can pretty much finish you before you can even realize, - 72 hours in Tsukuyomi realm means 1 second or a couple of seconds in the real world. Tsukuyomi can't be broken, when used to it's fullest.) The Sword of Totsuka and Yata Mirror - The Susanoo itself is a near invincible defense but these two weapons take it to the next step. The Sword of Totsuka can seal "anything" if it even touches it. It's completely OP. It's hard to fight a guy that can seal you away if his sword even touches you. The Yata Mirror is even a bigger deal in my opinion. It doesn't block attacks, it's "negates" them. You could throw an Amaterasu covered Bijuu bomb at Itachi and the Yata mirror will negate it, making it so the Susanoo doesn't even need to take a blow. You could punch the Yata mirror and the force will completely be negated. His biggest strength of all: tactical intelligence - Itachi always outsmarts and plans for everything because the plot demands it. You're physically strong? Itachi is already 2 steps ahead of you knowing exactly what to do. You're extremely fast? Again, 2 steps. You're going to try and outlast Itachi in a fight? Good luck. To add to this, some of the 3 most powerful techniques in the verse are due to his intelligence and planning ability; Izanami, Izanagi, and Kotoamatsukami. Izanami - A forbbiden genjutsu technique that allows you to alter someone's destiny. Impossible to break out of even if you know you're in a genjutsu without complying with the users set destiny for you. Even someone like Bee, a perfect Jinchuriki, can't escape Izanami unless he does what Itachi wants him to. Izanagi - You somehow gained an advantage over Itachi? He makes it so that advantage never happened. Kotoamatsukami - Though Shisui's technique, Itachi has his eye which effectively makes it his weapon. A genjutsu so powerful that the person it's cast on doesn't even know they're under a genjutsu. Like the Tsukuyomi, completely OP. To add to all of this, Itachi is pretty good at hand to hand combat, is great with shuriken, is extremely fast, is great with regular fire techniques, is slippery and unpredictable, and has the extremely dangerous and fast Genjutsu style of fighting approach that can caught you off guard almost at any time. With all of these things considered you've got one dangerous ninja. Lastly but not least Kishimoto made sure that Itachi was seen as someone special and he did an incredible job in establishing that in the story. When Itachi Uchiha awakened his Susano'o, he was seen wielding legendary weapons of the Totsuka Blade and the Yata Mirror. The former allowed Itachi to seal anyone he pierced in a world of genjutsu forever, while the latter gave him the ability to deflect any and all attacks thrown towards him, regardless of whether they were physical or spiritual in nature. According to Zetsu (who was around since the period of Kaguya time era until the present of Naruto) he state it in the anime and also in the manga that these weapons, when combined with his Susano'o, made Itachi Invincible. This is why Kishimoto basically had to give him a handicap: Naruto AIDS. 🤷🏻‍♂️ ☯️

[@TrafalgarWaterDLaw-dl5cm]

One mistake i noticed in the vid. The reason White hair Nagato did not react to amaterasu was actually because Itachi only reprogrammed himself with the crow. Nagato was not programmed to fight other Edo Tensei, thus did not fight back Itachi at all in that stage. As we for example see Nagato warn Bee and Naruto when Itachi was charging his MS way ahead of anything before. He himself if having the choice there would not want to fight back anyway, but defenately could have absorbed Amaterasu like any other ninjutsu. He did not have to physicly move to dodge when he can simply activate a preta path shield even without any physical motion as we saw in the fight after. It was why Kabuto was forced to intervene in the first place.

[@TandJgaming]

It’s also super important to note that nagato in that fight was not in control of himself for half of it, namely the part where he actually fights itachi, that means that a guy that didn’t know his abilities as well as nagato was controlling his body from somewhere not on the battle field effectively nerfing his battle prowess.

[@thesourpatchkidd579]

Nagato and Obito's six paths are interesting because Nagato created them out of need while Obito studied what Nagato did and elevated it. Nagato's 6 paths used the abilities of the rinnegan and were extensions of him, while Obito's had a rinnegan and a sharingan but didn't use either abilities and instead used their own. Which is actually very similar to how the Shinju work who also have rinnegan but can't (so far, excluding Jura) use rinnegan abilities but do have the abilities of the person they bit. They don't even seem to have the shared vision.

@@ITACHITHEGOAT-gg4ky It depends. the Totsuka blade is chakra right? Almighty push pushes away chakra. The fight with the edos, Naruto and Bee was a team effort and wouldn't have gone down the same way had it been any of the 3 fighting solo. Itachi literally asks for their help to beat Nagato and that's Nagato fully controlled, not one that is in full control of all of his powers with an infinitely replenishing chakra. Rasengan is the same. We literally see the Deva path do it multiple times to resengans way stronger than Komohamarus but don't let actual facts get in your way. If you think frog song is "basic" genjutsu then you've not read the manga. From it's showing, frog song is top 3 genjutsu when it comes to being unable to counter it. The first being IT obviously and the second being Tsykuyomi. Every other genjutsu we see has a counter. The only reason Pain wasn't done in by frog song is the fact Nagato wasn't present. If he was then it would have been game over. Even Koto has a counter. "Basic" genjutsu isn't even what Kurenai used on Itachi, that's advanced. Basic Genjutsu is what Kakashi was using on Zabuza and even that wouldn't be able to be countered by anyone weaker.

@@teeboz6237 Don’t think of the Totsuka Blade as being made of chakra. It’s not well explained AT ALL but think of it as an Ethereal Weapon and more importantly.

I don’t know what that Itachi Glazer is on about, Nagato can ABSOLUTELY handle Rasengans. All in all between Edo Nagato (Post-Chakra Absorption) vs Edo Itachi.

Itachi is very unique and authentic, especially in the factor of facing various encounters approach, his unpredictability in his way of fighting style approach it's his key factor in all of his encounters. Being blind or nearly blind has never slowed him down (especially when he's pretty much serious, but that's the point, he has never go all out against anyone during the series.) Itachi it's that type of character who can exceed almost any expectations. (at least that's what we were shown in the anime by the creator Masashi Kishimoto). Moral of the story, never underestimate Itachi. He did more sick than most healthy ninjas do in their entire life. In my opinion No One should underestimate such an unpredictable Shinobi like Itachi, even Madara (I won't say that Itachi can beat him, but at least he will be pretty much able to put a decent fight that Madara will also be impressed in my opinion). Also how can some of you guys even consider that Totsuka Blade it's slow when no such speed feat has been shown through the Shippuden that state it that it is slow? All of you are assuming it to be slow it may not be the case... Its not that the sword is unavoidable but it clearly has a very long range and is a very long blade. If you look at the manga, Naruto, Bee and Itachi are all relatively small from Nagato's point of view, and you can see the Totsuka Blade extending all the way from Itachi, piercing through Nagato, and still managing to nearly pop out toward the reader out of the page. I would say its fast because Kabuto coudldn't even react to it, and its not like Nagato was completely immobile to the point that he couldn't sidestep the blade. Also, Kabuto controlling people from far away is never stated to inhibit the Edos' reaction speed in any way. Being controlled by someone thousands of miles away didn't stop the Third Raikage from dodging KCM Naruto's Rasenshuriken. And as for Orochimaru, the sword struck him in between syllables of a word during his speech. I think that that is pretty fast. Pair the Totuska Blade with a good feint and its lethal because its ethereal, meaning it can pierce through any object. If the sword didn't live up to its reputation then Orochimaru wouldn't seek it out. People need to stop downplaying Itachi and denying the very clear speed feats of Totsuka. There is no room for interpretations here. The advantage of being an Uchiha, especially for Itachi and Madara, is that during an encounter against them, they always have a counter because of their unpredictable way of fighting factor, they don't run out of options or techniques, they almost always have a counter in their arsenal, even forbidden jutsus seems irrellevant against them, only a few Uchihas know a certain way to approach the situation with a certain and effective technique, that's why is hard/difficult to fight against them in my opinion. ☯️ 🤷🏻‍♂️ Here are the things that make Itachi so formidable. Tsukuyomi - A genjutsu so powerful that you literally can't escape it unless you have the same blood as Itachi, as stated by Itachi himself and proven later by Sasuke, or you're a jinchuriki. Jinchuriki are supposed to be immune to genjutsu but it hasn't been proven, but when Bee was fighting Edo Nagato and Itachi with Naruto, he said to watch out for Tsukuyomi explicitly. Literally 99% of all opponents fighting Itachi have no way of stopping Tsukuyomi. You could have the power to split the planet in half and it wouldn't matter. (Want to know why? - Kakashi pretty much state it in the actual anime and manga that Tsukuyomi it's such a dangerous Genjutsu Technique because it happen in a instant, even if you realize that you are trapped in the Tsukuyomi, it will be too late, because Itachi could approach you during that time in the real world (or he can use an Explosive Clone to approach you without you even realizing it in time and he can pretty much finish you before you can even realize, - 72 hours in Tsukuyomi realm means 1 second or a couple of seconds in the real world. Tsukuyomi can't be broken, when used to it's fullest.) The Sword of Totsuka and Yata Mirror - The Susanoo itself is a near invincible defense but these two weapons take it to the next step. The Sword of Totsuka can seal "anything" if it even touches it. It's completely OP. It's hard to fight a guy that can seal you away if his sword even touches you. The Yata Mirror is even a bigger deal in my opinion. It doesn't block attacks, it's "negates" them. You could throw an Amaterasu covered Bijuu bomb at Itachi and the Yata mirror will negate it, making it so the Susanoo doesn't even need to take a blow. You could punch the Yata mirror and the force will completely be negated. His biggest strength of all: tactical intelligence - Itachi always outsmarts and plans for everything because the plot demands it. You're physically strong? Itachi is already 2 steps ahead of you knowing exactly what to do. You're extremely fast? Again, 2 steps. You're going to try and outlast Itachi in a fight? Good luck. To add to this, some of the 3 most powerful techniques in the verse are due to his intelligence and planning ability; Izanami, Izanagi, and Kotoamatsukami. Izanami - A forbbiden genjutsu technique that allows you to alter someone's destiny. Impossible to break out of even if you know you're in a genjutsu without complying with the users set destiny for you. Even someone like Bee, a perfect Jinchuriki, can't escape Izanami unless he does what Itachi wants him to. Izanagi - You somehow gained an advantage over Itachi? He makes it so that advantage never happened. Kotoamatsukami - Though Shisui's technique, Itachi has his eye which effectively makes it his weapon. A genjutsu so powerful that the person it's cast on doesn't even know they're under a genjutsu. Like the Tsukuyomi, completely OP. To add to all of this, Itachi is pretty good at hand to hand combat, is great with shuriken, is extremely fast, is great with regular fire techniques, is slippery and unpredictable, and has the extremely dangerous and fast Genjutsu style of fighting approach that can caught you off guard almost at any time. With all of these things considered you've got one dangerous ninja. Lastly but not least Kishimoto made sure that Itachi was seen as someone special and he did an incredible job in establishing that in the story. When Itachi Uchiha awakened his Susano'o, he was seen wielding legendary weapons of the Totsuka Blade and the Yata Mirror. The former allowed Itachi to seal anyone he pierced in a world of genjutsu forever, while the latter gave him the ability to deflect any and all attacks thrown towards him, regardless of whether they were physical or spiritual in nature. According to Zetsu (who was around since the period of Kaguya time era until the present of Naruto) he state it in the anime and also in the manga that these weapons, when combined with his Susano'o, made Itachi Invincible. This is why Kishimoto basically had to give him a handicap: Naruto AIDS. 🤷🏻‍♂️ ☯️

[@AbHi12DaS]

@@cameronmynhier2628 that's the point Itachi has almost no counter for most of rinnegan jutsu .... If nagato use planetary devastation he is done ....if nagato pulls Itachi's soul out he is done ..... Itachi isn't beating nagato

[@robbieburchartz9263]

I’m very surprised he never mentioned the other Uchiha abilities. Specifically Izanagi. There’s the short period of which Itachi can counter attack with Totsuka after Chibaku Tensei. Not saying Itachi wins always but that trump card that Obito basically used against Conan is hard to predict against. Nagato uses chibaku drops his guard then Itachi shows up with Totsuka to seal him.

[@susear5939]

Izanagi & Izanami are some of the worst things Kishimoto created. Izanagi's effect is only limited by the amount of chakra a person can feed into it. Without Hashirama cells or being an Indra reincarnate, it is just a few seconds. I should point out. Izanagi has been shown to only affect the user. Only in anime only scenes have we seen Izanagi's influence extended beyond the user. In the manga it is only shown to change the fate of the user. It is a severely watered down Creation of all Things. Nagato can just Almighty Push the sword away. The Rinnegan has sensory perception like the Sharingan. It is an upgraded Sharingan after all. We seen the paths be able to see through smokescreens and dust as well as keep up with some of the fastest in the verse at that time.

[@robbieburchartz9263]

@ firstly, it only needs to work for a second while he’s being sealed by Chibaku. Nagato cannot use Almighty push directly after using Chibaku, leaving himself open. If his visual prowess was good enough to overcome Itachi’s stealth, then his other Paths would not have been obstructed with simple kunai Itachi used to blind him. The path to victory exists and has been proven time again on the anime.

You don't understand shonen if you think all fights are simply rock paper scissors bro there's far more nuances to the characters than that. Not all rinnegan are the same and the same with sharingan different characters have different jutsus and different chakra pools different weapons and durability speed AP DC strike speed travel speed reflexes etc. If you don't even understand that much idk why you even watched the video.

It's like saying curse energy>no curse energy so that means teen Gojo wins. Notice how you would be wrong? It's because you don't take the nuances into account.

40 minute video time to get my popcorn and enjoy

[@ITACHITHEGOAT-gg4ky]

At 33:33 nick you are wrong there cuz itachi knew about edo tensei even Nagato as deidara and satori went to fight and itachi even told them how to stop it by restricting its movement

[@darianricks2050]

Already knew the sponsor before he even said the name of the sponsor lmfaoo.

[@TeonaJames]

I think you are right nick. It's nagato

[@sirdanie]

Its obviously rinnegan over sharingan

[@fredbowie1674]

Nagato is truly god level with his 6 paths of pain ability

[@MindoftheNorthStar]

Nagato claps 👏

[@ryangentry2003]

Around 31:00 you can hear Nick fighting saying “Chakra-ly”

[@TheGrossMeta]

Nagato high diff

[@4dojo]

I always find it weird when Itachi fans claim that Itachi beats prime Nagato. Nagato literally overpower three of the strongest characters in the series at once, including the two stronger tailed beast hosts, and he only lost because he explained to them how to fight him and finally was caught off guard. Even Kabuto called Nagato his strongest reanimation, not Itachi. I think that Itachi can win in a fight with Nagato, but it certainly wouldn’t be the result of being the stronger of the two, it could only happen with very careful planning and incredibly quick strategizing.

[@SpammytheHedgehog]

Nagato understood Sasuke's pain before Naruto did.

[@Sayis46]

How??

[@kaiselkamish9904]

bro's life revolves around naruto and he stills call it edo "tensai"

[@Mangaka-Knight]

This video was JUST uploaded like 5 minutes ago and I'm seeing comments already. How are there 72 likes already and comments when Nick hasn't even finished talking yet??? The video is like 40 minutes long!

[@AnimeMadMan109]

Very serious question, a reply is urgently requested. Is that sweater vest thing not itchy?

[@nvidia-rtx-5090]

I was thinking the same

[@uchuzuihamaki]

Hmm we know that main occular jutsu have resistance to genjutsu, however, his paths of pain were apparently affected by genjutsu, along with the summonings. Even if it's not an instant win, I would think his sharingan genjutsu would still work. It would also make the full power fight between the 2 closer(besides chibaku tensei scenario) still give full power fight 6 out of 10 wins to nagato

[@Shacklah]

The genjutsu used was a sound genjutsu so we can assume it didn't care about ocular abilities.

[@Akbar_and_Shaa]

Kind of funny the guy who seems to dislike powerscaling made a verus battle that was as entertaining to hear as the ones made by swagkage and thundergod.

[@1of1MaccSauce]

32:37 I thought it was obvious Nagato simply didnt want to fight…

[@Knifeiamassharp]

Hi can you make a video ranking pain tolerance of the characters of Naruto.

[@thefgvfddsjwb]

Please do Jiraiya vs Itachi next, I beg you.

[@ikar312]

Will this man EVER say 'Edo TensEi' and not 'Edo TensAi'.....otherwise, great video haha!

[@darrolweston1253]

I wanted this for a while

[@dragondrakage2402]

16:50 in a databook it actually says kirin was light speed. Which isn't a crazy take considering how fast the high tiers in naruto are

[@princeswaggeta4406]

Im more interested in them battling as they were in akatsuki rather than in a battle that can only be won by sealing with no pressures of limitation.

[@killa2426]

Itachi embedded the amateratsu into sasuke’s eyes, sasuke didn’t implant itachi’s eyes until after danzo’s death

[@justinhale4769]

Nagato is a beast. But what if itachi never got sick and actually progressed fully into I'd imagine something weve never seen. Take away his Chakra sickness and he obtained a ems there may be no stopping him

[@calebbakare]

Let’s goooo Nick!!!

[@jordanp301]

Could you do a video of kisame vs kakuzu?

[@HellCat217]

There are a few points I find doubtful. 1. The strongest form of Nagato was the one before using the Statue the first time (no edo tense nerf, no burned legs, no rods yet). 2. Nagato didn’t “use” anything because every move he made was controlled by Kabuto. So the Amaterasu hitting the first time and the entire fight didn’t include any of the Nagato battle IQ. Even weakened edo Nagato could have started the fight with a Chibaku tensei as his limitation was physical only. 3. Genjutsu immunity is a bit of a stretch, considering 3 paths of pain were killed using a genjutsu by Jiraya. 4. Naruto said Nagato is a lot stronger when the latter was still in his weakened state not after. All in all, I love Itachi as a character but I don’t see him winning under any reasonable conditions.

[@Shacklah]

I agree with all you said BUT the genjutsu that jiraya used was a sound genjutsu which doesn't care about his rinnegan. Which i don't really know if itachi has any. But if he did definitely a big potential for some upset

[@trilllord4427]

Why bro looking into my friends group chat convos 😂😂😂

[@salomongonzalez4106]

Itachi bullied Oro so bad he didn't go "toe to toe" with Hydra Orochimaru he walked all over them

[@dovahduke4566]

Oh it's Gedo Mazdo I've been saying , Ghetto Mazda for years

[@shaunbrooks8034]

Lmao hold tf up bro “the ap to stab thought jiraya “ lol no way

[@gedrictudio]

Something I do not recall the answer to or it was actually never addressed: If the edo tensei forms have infinitely refilling chakra, why the fuck does Nagato even get reincarnated in his chakra-depleted state and then can somehow absorb chakra, surpass his initial-revived state and then return to his peak state.

[@itsyaboyjay9862]

Because it doesn't mean infinite chakra in the sense that you have unlimited access, it's regenerable. If you have less chakra than Naruto you won't all of a sudden be able to use more when you're revived. Or else they would just make infinite shadow clones or make the biggest blasts of all time. They have the same capacity as when they died.

[@sirdanie]

infinite chakra doesn't grant a larger pool you just don't die if you run out of your usual amount and over time it refills and nagato got revived in that state because that's how he died just like anyone else except madara who kabuto madara special

[@dragondrakage2402]

36:30 amaterasu diesnt have a travel time, otherwise it would look like a flamethrower coming out of the eye. It spawns on whatever the eye sees at that spot in time

[@PositiveWins69]

Bro this DID NOT NEED TO BE 40 fucking minutes of my life

[@peacefulhooligan8081]

@18:50 EMS & @19:00 FTL Please can you put what these acronyms stand for on the screen in subsequent videos

[@bloster_ant]

Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan and Faster Than Light

[@arynross9841]

I mean I feel like if itachi could get izanami on perfect sage kabuto. Then he could cast it on full power nagato
