The Databook is filled with fancy language. It's also known to have mistakes. Natrix Spiritual Cloak Gleam wrote: that yata is a perfect defense hence why he said it made the user invincible. How can a defense be flawless if it only protects one side? Zetsu also said Itachi should've been able to dodge those shuriken but he didn't. Seems like he wasn't perfectly informed of everything. He also said he was the manifestation of Madara's will. Gaara's defense and Susanoo have both been called Absolute but neither was Absolute.

If it's such a flawless defense, why did Itachi not use it against Kabuto? Why didn't he use it against Nagato? Why didn't he use it all the time, in stead of blocking a few explosive kunai?

Itachi's feats are just databook hype, and even then it's not even itachi's strengths but purely his weapons. Itachi face turn was a current situation not the past. Not only that itachi couldve dodged it if he didnt purposefully get hit because he wanted sasuke to believe he got stronger which wasnt the case. Itachi already knew he was going to die by sasuke's hands so why dodge simple flesh wounds? No one does that. Only tobi knew about it. Zetsu knows everything from the past and Totsuka and Yata are objects of the past. Shikotsumayo being omnipotent doesnt take away anything from itachis weapons. BZ knows the entire stuff in the Rikudou Tablet so he wouldnt say that simply at a whim. He knew what he was saying. Databook of itachi isnt hype because it was stated to make him completely invincible in the manga. Shikotsumayo have been stated to a perfect attack? Is it? Or perfect defense? Or that physical, astral , ninjutsu and all sorts of attacks are useless against it? Nope Im sure. But for yata and totsuka, its stated to be magical matchless weapons which means its stronger than Nunoboku no ken which was stated to have shaped the world since obito didnt call it the best sword. Absolute = Omnidirectional. Perfect = No weakness. Totsuka and yata have this statement " Itachis Susanoo Boasts an Absolutely Perfect Attack and Defense"....which means the mirror is both omnidirectional and perfect in repelling everything. Totsuka has been shown to change shape and DB confirms it doesnt have physical form which means both weapons can convert or morph into any shape necessary to protect the castor hence why both are magical, they can do anything the castor wishes according to the need of the situation. Unless you can prove that page is a mistake, the manga and statement still stands. He didnt use it logic is flimsy at best. Its like saying nagaro didnt use ST and BT on itachi so hes automatically immune to it. Or maybe he might be? Lol. This kind of logic doesnt work unless there is serious point to be proven backed by manga.
