@Ultima..You do know it can be reprogrammed right lmao. And for all we know the crow was programmed a few before it got stuck into Naruto, healthy Itachi is early days Itachi, which means a nonprogrammed Kotoamatsukami.....Madara get's one shotted whether you like it or not.

Regardless, for argument's sake let's say it is part of Itachi's arsenal, I think Madara would break out of it. Koto doesn't require eye contact which makes it broken af, but Koto gets cancelled if the target realises that they are caught inside a genjutsu. It's how Mifune broke out of it. Well let's keep it that way as something you think will happen. Mifune broke out because Danzo stopped controlling him.

Madara should have no problem sensing that Itachi is using an ocular genjutsu by seeing the build-up of chakra in his eyeball, and thus the genjutsu would be broken. If a transplanted single Byakugan can detect Koto, then an EMS or Rinnegan can too. Ao only knew it was shisui's eye due to his confrontation with shisui, in other words he had experience.

Also, even if you still think that Koto would work, it depends on what you think is faster: Madara performing 3 handseals, or Itachi activating the crow which would then trigger Koto on Madara. Don't forget the time the boulder takes to land on the ground. Like someone pointed out, NAruto can spam bijju dama and destroy it.
