Naruto Chapter 551 Discussion

I knew Itachi was stronger than Nagato. I'm glad to see my dream match which I thought would never happen, in spite of it being so short. If Madara wasn't so hax with the MS and Rinnegan, there would be no one left alive that could beat him, except maybe Sasuke with his new eyes. I wonder if Sasuke will be Itachi's undoing?

Considering they weren't even fighting one against one i don't get where you even get to such conclusions.
And there is no undoing because his already dead.

Arguments can be made. There's no way to say who would have won beyond a doubt. But it seems equally far-fetched to me to say that Naruto or Killer Bee had much of anything to do with the conclusion of that fight. It was basically one on one which is why I made that opinionated statement. If you want to say that the fight was inconclusive. That's fine.

Wasn't Nagato's technique broken because they combined their most powerful attacks? How can you say that they didn't do anything? Actually if you think about it like that, the only conclusion you can get is that Nagato is the stronger one because his powerful technique is stronger than Itachi's powerful technique since Itachi needed a lot more power than his own to break Nagato's technique. So Itachi's power alone wasn't enough compared to Nagto's power alone.
You can even say inconclusive or that Nagato might be stronger from what we saw but saying Itachi is stronger is completely hot air out of nothing with no evidence what so ever. An opinionated statement must have at least some kind of logic forming that opinion and yours has none.

The only "bad" thing is that you people don't realize that the writing never let any hope of him actually sticking around. His gonna be gone in the next few chapters and that's it.
When it's so obvious from the start that his only temporary here for a little time, i just can't understand how you people can read this staff and don't see the obvious.
You create false hopes and theories in your mind based on a complete lack of understanding on what you read and then you shout of disappointment and bad writing when things don't go along with your false logic.

Where did it say all three attacks were needed to destroy it? You're drawing conclusions from nothing as well. At least I admit my statements of being bias. If the proof is in the pudding, then how can you say Nagato was stronger when Itachi sealed him away? Rather effortlessly after Nagato's Celestrial Terra Blast was destroyed. Arguments can be made that Itachi could have easily done that while Nagato was distracted fighting Killer Bee and Naruto. If you say Itachi isn't stronger, that's cool. I really don't have enough evidence to make a real case. But you don't have enough evidence either to make a case the other way. I drew conclusions that I wanted from very little. And you are doing the same.

Itachi does things LIKE A BOSS.


I have this same feeling, too.

I'm afraid he won't stay part of the fighting force. He's just way too powerful for Kishi to have him around. He's gonna write him out of the story soon I think. Probably with Itachi sacrificing himself or something stupid like that.
