^I have to say that maybe Itachi just wanted Kurenai to think he was helpless, so he would switch the game up on her when she least expected it by placing her in her own genjutsu, but she quickly broke out of it in a nick of time and dodged his initial assault just a second after getting out the genjutsu. I'll give complements to her for that, as did Itachi. Also, The Tree Binding technique is a technique that affects multiple targets so it makes it that more useful. I doubt that her strongest genjutsu was a B-rank if her abilities rival that of Itachi's. She probably expected it would work, her mistake. Her abilities was never fully explored and due Kakashi being thrown in middle, it was bound that he would absorb all the attention. Even Asuma at the time didn't get his full time.
