how old is Itachi?

[chronic]

ok we all know itachi is like a super freak who became chunnin at the age of 9 and anbu capt. at the age of 13. so how old is he now? my guess.... mid 20's... around 25 or so

[PheniZ]

He's awfully short, that's for sure http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/tongue.gif Anyways, I'd guess 18-20, judging from his apperance now and when Sasuke was even younger. http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/dry.gif

[Hanyou Roura]

Hm, lets see.
Itachi became ANBU captain at 13. And when he killed the village, he was still an Anbu. So he was probably 14 or 15. The village was killed 6 years from now. So 14 plus 6 = 20

[sangai]

he's 18 or 19 try checking narutoguide.comfor birthdays and ages

[jing]

he looks 17

[Legendary Nin]

17...

http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/dry.gif we dont really know what Sasuke is planning now do we?

[itachi_]

He want to become stronger, the only reason why he continue living is that he want to kill itachi... he feels like he must join sound to become strong....

[itachi_]

He&#39;s 17, when the story started he was 16.

[Raven]

He&#39;s 17. At least, according to NarutoGuide.

A lot of people dislike Sasuke now because of his decision to join Orochimaru and the sound. I don&#39;t think he&#39;s a maniac, but I&#39;m rather disappointed in his decision. He joined the eeevil side (not evil evil, but kinda evil side). Hopefully Naruto can smack some sense into that boy (maybe even literally http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/wink.gif ).

Everyone says Itachi&#39;s 17, so I presume he is.

[Hotsuma]

Sasuke is a genius, Death Boo. This is clearly explained in the manga.

He&#39;s nowhere near as genius as the guys you listed, but he&#39;s a step above normal people like Naruto, Lee and so on.

And, nobody knows how many gates Gai can open.

[snowball]

hes crazy strong no matter how old he is.

[Strigeln]

There&#39;s one thing I don&#39;t get. Every one says Sasuke is a genius, but Itachi must be a super genius right?

that&#39;s cuz Sasuke isn&#39;t a genious... only Ino and Sakura really believe that he is.

The rest think he&#39;s talented and probably one step above all other genins in almost everything, but he ain&#39;t nothing special...

the true geniuses are:

Neji - learning all the Hyuuga secret jutsus by himself
Kakashi - becoming Chunin at age 6, mastering over 1000 jutus
Itachi - slaughering every Uchiha at age 13, mastering the Sharinan to the point of perfection.

Lee isn&#39;t really a genious either, he just works real hard (i think that the &#39;genius&#39; comment that Kakashi said was becuase he can open more gates than Gai, but no one will ever agree with me).

[meta.4 | likwid]

Naruto is probably a true genius. I don&#39;t recall him losing any of his major battles so far. Yet, everyone else has besides Itachi.

[petoix]

i agree. i think naruto is a true genius. some people can&#39;t see it because all they see is a goofy kid, innocent and always upbeat.

at first i thought susuke was cool - but he&#39;s got a serious dose of self-pity - and he&#39;s become so moody and miserable. in a way - it is just negative energy.

my 2 cents.

Naruto ain&#39;t a genius... i agree with that sasuke thing, He&#39;s way out of line...

then how does he learn things so fast in comparison to other people...

[Nautek]

Bah I think Naruto is a genius learning that Rasengan so quickly.

[Raven]

Naruto isn&#39;t a true genius like Sasuke or Neji, but a &#39;genius of hard work&#39; like Rock Lee. He has 110% determination, making him capable of a lot more than a normal person.

[snoogins]

Back on topic Itachi is 17 i think it might even be stated in the manga. Im not sure because im updating from college and my pc isnt working. If not then i have read it on a few sites that clearly say he is 17

[Uzumaki Naruto]

he looks like hes 30 with those bags under his eyes lol jp but i think that hes around 17 or 18 cant realy say

[gaara]

Sasuke&#39;s arrogance is not a very genius attitude...

that&#39;s cuz he&#39;s the main character duh. it&#39;d be stupid for him to lose.

[DeluxSkillz]

i always thought itachi was 16 oh well good to know almost everyone agrees on 17 i needed this info for my Itachi fanfic

[Strider]

I believe Itachi is seventeen. I believe it is stated somewhere, or the information of the past is given so that the readers can compute and figure out how old he currently is upon his brief return to Konoha.

As for Naruto .. I agree with Raven. He presents genius qualities through his hard work, as Rock Lee always does.

And, Itachi has those bags under his eyes I think to simply emphasize his strength. He is only seventeen but appears to be middle-aged. His experiences and battles have aged him beyond his actual years.

.. Rock Lee still owns him, though. http://www.gotwoot.net/forum/html/emoticons/tongue.gif
