Terrible logic amaterasu won't take so much out of him. he's proven resilience. after amaterasu comes the totsuka blade. ma and pa interfering would be to no real avail. they get dealt with by either of the brothers Itachi had to take an entire day of rest after (not including the regular jutsus he used) 2 Tsukuyomis and an Amaterasu. One use of Amaterasu will greatly strain Itachi. The Totsuka blade is easily avoidable Jason of the Mangekyo wrote: Well this is getting nowhere....you're manipulating the facts to suit your argument, repeating one thing over and over lol. Call it what you want, Jiraiya looked. Killer Bee got caught in Genjutsu once, but still looked at Itachi's eyes and got caught a second time. The very fact that Kabuto turn off his entire eye sight hints that at one point he is bound to stare lol, or else all he could've done was not look...The raikage was warned not to look in Madara's eyes, yet later on in the match he looked. Orochimaru didn't think Itachi's genjutsu was so potent, he was more carefree, also this is something Jiraiya doesn't know...what makes you think Jiraiya won't conveniently stare at all is something you've yet to prove. I've proven he and those characters listed in this comment has an affinity to stare. By manipulating facts, you mean including the context? Staring into someone's general direction is not eye contact, which is what is required for Sharingan genjutsu. I never claimed that Jiraiya will never be caught in genjutsu. I just denounce the premise of him stupidly looking at Itachi's eyes. Killer Bee didn't notice Sasuke's Sharingan until he got caught by his genjutsu and was tricked to look at Itachi's eyes when he was countering his fire shurikens. The Raikage was literally caught off-guard. I never claimed that Jiraiya will never be caught in a genjutsu, in fact, I've admitted that he can be tricked into looking at Itachi's eyes. I simply disagree with the faulty premise of Jiraiya stupidly staring at Itachi's eyes at the start of the fight based on the hallway scene where eye contact wasn't even confirmed.
