    it would be unfair to ask them to look past their emotions so you can shorthand two words
    Personally, I haven't shortened Mangekyou Sharingan once in this thread, but I still think you're making a deal of this. I know someone with TB, but every time I see that acronym, I don't start telling people not to use it. You're being a bit too sensitive about this, especially since "MS" is a pretty legitimate shortcut to writing out a particularly long foreign word. You sound like the Mizuki quote in Assertn's sig, dude...

    Whatever. I didn't want to derail further, but IMO that was a pretty ridiculous thing to say.

    I kinda assumed Kakashi's "how bad has your eyesight become" question was metaphorical, as a way to reveal that Itachi has neglected to notice something.
    I agree it works in this context as well. He either said it literally to taunt Itachi, or he was hinting at something not yet revealed to the viewers. What that could be though, I guess we'll find out. In any case, I still don't buy that Itachi's afraid of him having Mangekyou Sharingan.

    Yes, but he's not deducing the effect of Mangekyou based on his experiences with his own Sharingan. He figured them out for the reasons he stated in the episode. He could have been dead wrong, but Itachi's reaction clarified this reasoning.

    <@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs

    Yep I agree completely. I was just arguing against what some people said about how Kakashi must have deduced MS's effects on the eyes based on his experience with S. Therefore, he must have researched or had first-hand experience with MS and its effects on the eyes. After he got owned by Itachi in their last encounter, I would expect that he researched everything known about MS, and that's how he knows more about it, without actually knowing how to do the technique.


    For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?

    I'm declaring this conversation over. I don't care what you call it, how you abbreviate it or what your personal feelings are about Mangekyou Sharingan, but this is getting stupidly off-topic. If you don't have something to say about this episode of Naruto Shippuuden, please refrain from posting further in this thread.

    Thank you and let's get back to what we're all here for.
    Masa

    Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity. The one who holds endless potential and displays his strength and kindness to the world. Only mankind has God, a power that allows us to go above and beyond what we are now, a God that we call "possibility".

    MS isn't just genjutsu.....
    Amaterasu is an MS ninjutsu that produces those black flames to burn through anything.

    Amaterasu -> Ninjutsu
    Tsukuyomi -> Genjutsu

    Could the Mangekyou have a Taijutsu ability as well? I would add Kenjutsu as well... but apart from Zabuza, Hayate and Kisame we really haven't seen other sword masters... (technically Tenten should know how to wield one... but who knows)
