Versus Battle Is Pain vs Itachi a debate?

Itachi will have a hard time fighting against pain. Amaterasu gets absorbed and tsukiyomi only works at one target at a time. Pain has way more win coins. Itachi healthy or not also is on timer with ms techniques.
Amaterasu only gets absorbed by Preta Path though. The rest still get negged by it. Preta alone isn't stopping Ama spam especially considering the rest are slow as hell.

Also don't know where you're getting Tsukuyomi only working on one target a time. Kakashi's basic sharingan genjutsu worked on 2 Anbu ninjas with one glare


And Itachi has far superior genjutsu than Kakashi with 3T alone let alone MS...

Itachi also put thousands of Aburame clan insects who were looking at him in a Tsukuyomi.

So Tsukuyomi is confirmed to work on multiple targets, thousands if the target is small enough.

Rest is fair. Itachi's biggest problem is CT activation and his own stamina
 
Also, the Pains are psycically linked, so it's plausible that Itachi putting one of them under Tsukuyomi would put them all under it, iirc Jiraiya mentioned something about this when he used the frog Genjutsu against them.

Pain can use summons to block amaterasu tbf and for genjutsu I am not sure whether sharingan genjutsu can affect superior eyes in rinnegan. But in this type of fights it depends on what the author wants. He can have either of them win depending on the outcome he wants.

I mean he hypothetically could but Ama is way faster than summons. His best bet is to escape the line of sight before Ama is launched.

For the Rinnegan bit, I honestly used to think the same as you but then on a reread, I realised it's never stated anywhere that Rinnegan has genjutsu resistance. Definitely not immunity to it. It's a Mandela effect which was never said.

This was the only bit I could find

but that's only suggesting Sasuke's Rinnegan is powerful enough and we know Pain's Rinnegan isn't anywhere near Sasuke's one which was amped by SO6P chakra + EMS
 
Sharingan Obito was the leader, Nagato was just the figurehead.
Obito is weaker as Pain.
And it isn't as simple as Rinnegan > Sharingan, the Rinnegan cannot do everything that the Sharingan can.
Sharingan Genjutsu is not working on Rinnegan as its higher in the Doujutsu hierarchy

And the rest is getting counterd by Tendo alone for the most part.A single CT would kill/K.O. Itachi
 
Orange Mask Obito was never above Pain lmao

White Mask Obito WITHOUT Bijuus was also not above Pain/Nagato

He himself said he can not handle the Rinnegan as good as Nagato because of lower Chakra and both Rinnegan would have killed him

Lmao no surprise you can't scale Naruto for shit just like the rest of the HST.

Rinnegan has zero Genjutsu resistance, it does not have the abilities of the Sharingan, it is an entirely different Dojutsu.

Tsukuyomi folds Tendo pain casually.
 
Is it?
Itachi's genjutsu most likely wont work on well trained rinnegan
Amaterasu gets absorbed
Itachi's only hope is his "Invincible" susanoo, but how long can he really use it? Is it evern enough to defeat Pain?
Pain is like the worst encounter to Itachi.

Genjutsu - Rinnegan can avoid it.
Amaterasu - gets absorbed
Susanoo - Pain features a bigger chakra tank and Reanimation and different bodies even if Itachi seals one of them like he did with Orochimaru.

Pain is straight up superior in every state bar Battle IQ.
