I'm not seeing how it matters either way, both Minato and Itachi can transform quickly and it's not like Itachi can touch Minato even when's transformed into Susanoo.

@Quaking You also need to stop ignoring how the entire Manga has never ever portrayed how Itachi is capable of reacting to lightning strikes, how Itachi at his best can't react to Kabuto, how Itachi was stated to be invincible by Zetsu who also didn't know what a susanoo was, how Itachi's so-called "invincibility" was never ever brought up or mentioned again in the series, how his totsuka blade only sealed two stationary and disadvantaged opponents, how his mirror was onlyshown blocking snake heads and explosive tags. Yet Itachi is "very nearly invincible".

@Rachin That's true, but Itachi did state that the susanoo was why he survived and right after he forms his whole susanoo.
