Ay is obviously moving far faster then the chidori and they don't even mention the tunnel vision. since they don't mention it the logical assumption is that he doesn't suffer from any tunnel effect You're stating the problem wrong. It's not that you don't have the reaction time to react to the enemy's counter. It's that you can't SEE the enemy's counter, because you have tunnel vision from running at high speed with a single point of focus. Facing an opponent on your level, it has very little to do with reaction speed since your reaction speed will match your locomotive speed. Hence, only 2 tomoe Sharingan is needed, and not 3 tomoe Sharingan prediction. You don't need more reaction speed; you need a wider more detailed field of focus.

Since the Raiton armor increases not just reaction speed, but movement speed, the only effect it could possibly have on tunnel vision is to raise the threshold of it to a higher level of speed, since moving at anything less than your full speed would appear to be moving at slow motion. Moving at YOUR top speed however, would be just like anybody else moving at THEIR top speed. Tunnel vision is the result.

If the enemy is significantly slower than the person using Raiton armor it makes sense that his counter would be too slow to present a problem. It would be like being attacked by an opponent made out of molasses. However, if the opponent is in sage mode then there isn't enough of a difference in speed to make such a claim, as was demonstrated by Sage Mode Naruto. He not only has the raw speed to react to your Raiton armor enhanced movements, he has the Threat Perception to anticipate your attacks.

That's absurd. They never mention it after the time skip, no matter who we're talking about, including Rock Lee and Guy, whom we know have to be careful of it. By your logic, Rock Lee never again has to worry about tunnel vision, because he never mentions it again.

They don't have to mention it, because they demonstrate it on numerous occasions, just as they demonstrate other facets (chakra molding, elemental manipulation, genjutsu breaking) of the Narutoverse that they never again mention the mechanics of after it is well understood. Why anyone should have to have this spelled out every single time it is demonstrated is mind boggling.

They only mention one time that if your body can't keep up then it doesn't matter if you can see your opponents movements. By your logic, no matter how many times we see this demonstrated (2 tomoe Sasuke vs Kyuubified Naruto, Mangekyou Sasuke vs Kirabi, Mangekyou Sasuke vs "Tailed beast level" Raikage, etc), "the logical assumption" is that your body being slower than your awareness is not a problem, just because they never mention it out loud. Logic dictates no such thing. To the contrary, it dictates that you not needlessly generate assumptions.

Finally, this has gone so far off topic it's ridiculous. This thread has nothing to do with tunnel vision or Raiton Armor. we're literally derailing the thread. If you want to discuss this further, make a thread specifically for this, I'll join you. Otherwise, it ends for me here.
