Semi-Confirmed? Spoiler Summary
I'm surprised, I don't remember anyone predicting something like that as how it might turn out, but now that I think about it this was probably the most plausible way.

"Zetsu sweats" xD! Omg.
Still, the puny idea having Sasuke's forhead poked at.. well, omg that too, really.
But I guess it's better than an even more streach out fight.

So now what? Sasuke eats his eyes and achieves superpowers? *wishes this chapter was longer*
I hope this is complete bullshit, but I'm afraid it's not
I think that it could be legit. Kind of reminds me of when Sasuke was younger and when Itachi would call him over just to tap him on the forehead. I think that they are making a reference to that.

I must agree with imbtd, though that reference is ridiculously old. If I hadn't recently seen it on the US dub airing I would have completely forgotten about that habit of Itachi's. If that's how the fight ends it's sort of lame, but hey, this is how Garaa vs Kimmimaru ended too so it's not like it's unprecedented. Countering your opponent until they exhaust themselves is a legitimate strategy too.

Assertn and I briefly discussed that possibility on IRC the one day... although I admit I mostly mentioned it out of sarcasm. I doubt Assertn even remembers.Originally Posted by Yukimura

Seems Oro wasn't done for. Sounds like the poison that his white snake form releases is what did in Itachi. Now we're going to some long explanation about how whatever Itachi's sword seals away is actually sealed inside him or something along those lines.
Either that or some other explanation that says that Sasuke didn't win this fight completely on his own merit. I'd be immensely annoyed otherwise.
From the looks of the spoiler pics, I was right for once. Looks like Itachi just kind of taps him on the forehead like he used to do. Kind of funny how they were able to get that back in there within the context of him trying to steal his brothers' eyes. Nice tie-in I would say.

I wouldn't!! This blows. It makes me think Itachi only did this to get his little brother calculated to how good he thought he could get. Which totally sucks donkey dong. Because now Sasuke's path will be all fucked up unless he takes his brothers coat (which obviously won't happen) or if he goes back team Kakashi and konoha faithfully theres a good chance he won't like his welcome. Or won't go back there to begin with. Unless, of course, Naruto comes to save him afterwards. And convince him that he needs to comeback.
In the Spoiler thingy, was it stated that Itachi even died? To me, it felt he just poked Sasukes forhead and then just collapsed.
And what's with the white snake thingy? Sasuke now became a Hawk?

So itachi collapsed from what? Blindness? How does losing his vision result in that type of conclusion? Maybe walking 10 feet with susano activated exhausted him?
10/4/04 - 8/20/07
He is just probably over exausted after useing MS and it's techniques so much. I'm still wondering what's the whole snake thing about more Ore not dying crap, the guy just doesn't stay down if indeed the white snakes have something to do with him. I actually like the tap to sasuke's forehead thing it's a nice addition in my opinion.
I seriously doubt the use of MS causes JUST blindness, even if they never specifically said it causes anything else. I mean, he's been bleeding from his eyes. Plus zetsu said something about Susano being cast at a high risk. There's plenty of unexplained BS that may account for this collapse.
I bet the sheer exhaustion from using that much chakra must be intense. Naruto fainted after recovering from the 4-tails right? Both brothers seem dead tired now.
Itachi must have really wanted those eyes =/
Isn't it that Itachi used Susano`o when he had no chakra left for techniques?
I dont see how the snake could have poisened Itachi when it was Oro's soul that was absorbed. Although Oro will probably somehow pop out of that snake thats lying on the ground. There's probably some other side effect of the Mangyekou that Kishi hasn't explained yet. But man, Itachi wanting to take those eyes out slowly was really out of character (just like his spaztic moment a couple of chapters back).
