He died at 24 and he had accomplished things people like jiraiya never could. He created a rasengan after seeing a bijuudama once. You might say Naruto made it better but Minato literarily said that chakra nature was to be added to it and he died before he could do that and if he didn't leave that info, kakashi wouldn't have had the chidori and naruto wouldn't even think of creating chakra nature infused rasengan. Tell how many people know fuinjutsu. Minato surpassed jiraiya in fuinjutsu and he started learning uzumaki fuin which is no small feat, he had perfect sage mode, he had tobirama's ftg mastered and upgraded and you think Itachi could compare to this? A guy who always relied on his sharingan? A guy who killed his clan because danzo and obito told him to? Be serious people

Yeah, the highlighted part is why i do not like Itachi's character and all the hype of him dies down on me.

he is apparently a pacifist at heart and a genius.

Last i knew pacifist dont want war, but this guy ups and kills the entire Uchiha clan in their sleep because he does not want a civil war that will result in bloodshed. so to stop bloodshed cause some bloodshed. the Uchiha at least have to be in hundreds to even think of challenging Konoha who can produce a shinobi might of thousands. and Itachi killed them all, including children, sans his brother.

that was the brilliant plan of the genius.

also a genius or prodigy are people who learn from others and make their own choices. yet here it is completely opposite. he is all reliant on Shisui and when Shisui bails out saying he cannot use Koto on Fugaku he gets goaded into killing his entire clan by Danzo and Obito.

if one thought that the way Sasuke was used by people reflected bad on him than what about Itachi? at least Sasuke did all for revenge against Itachi and then later Konoha and he knew he was being used, but Itachi did it for litterally no one. He never had his own plan regarding the way to stop the Coupdeat of Uchiha.

SO much for the genius mind rivalling the Hokage.
