As the series had already said, a master with a stone can beat a rookie with a kunai.

Sasuke beat Itachi's mangekyou genjutsu with a normal sharingan. Even if people say that it's only that Itachi wanted Sasuke to win, the principle remains the same.

Just because someone has a Rinnegan, it doesn't mean they won't be caught in another Genjutsu, even one without sage mode. I think if Shisui used Koto on say, Nagato, he would have caught him in it.

Also, with the whole visual vs dojutsu thing, this is my stance. Tsukuyomi is a dojutsu and a visual genjutsu, as it requires eye contact. Koto is a dojutsu, since the ability stems from the eyes, but since it doesn't require the eye to actually even look at the target, it isn't a visual genjutsu.

Basically, if you're actually required to look at something to activate it, it's a visual jutsu. If it's not but it still comes from the Sharingan or Rinnegan, it's just a dojutsu. In my opinion anyways.
