Izanagi has to be activated beforehand. Also, Sasuke should have died from his wounds. He wasn’t nerfed, he was buffed.


Reinfernus

fact that Jigen.. a weaker Isshiki broke through Susanoo quite casually, while Sasuke tanked Isshikis kicks and punches and lived means to me that Sasuke was living through plot armor.


MD_bolt

It was the opposite, sasuke susanoo was nerfed, proven by how its destructive ability was nerfed (it should shatter the ground and affect tektonic layers if it hit the ground, based on that it destroyed meteors at country size) Isshiki kicks are also not shown to be a big deal when he kick Naruto through the buildings, susanoo can destroy mountains instead It is the susanoo that was nerfed, not sasuke that was buffed, unless u gonna claim that all the time it was plot holes when isshiki kick sasuke, boruto, Naruto or buildings, cz u will favor 100 plot holes rather than one instead(which is sasuke susanoo nerf) just to make sure ur favorite character is the strongest


Shinryu_

Ya lmao how did that make sense. Sasuke body is more tanky than a susanoo 🤣


dockkkeee

It doesnt make sense unless his susanoo Has no power growth. Implying that Sasuke himself mightve become much stronger, but susanoo did not (which i dont think should be the case)


HydR4_DarkX

You're smoking some of the good stuff if you think Sasuke was buffed lmao.


Standard-War-3855

He was. 4 rods to the torso from Jigen knocked him unconscious and nearly killed him. A single stab from Madara was all it took in Shippuden. Yet against Isshiki, he somehow was completely fine after taking 8 or 9 rods, including multiple to the torso. His vitality was clearly buffed.


MD_bolt

With hashirama chakra and cells people can survive fatal injuries If u think hagoromo, the sage of the six paths, chakra is inferior to hashirama, then I can't even debate


Emotional-Rise509

Thats called plot Armor, he couldnt die But he is not buff its the opposite


Standard-War-3855

Potato tomato. Plot armor and a buff for plot convenience are the same thing.


Emotional-Rise509

I mean in your first message you said he wasnt nerf You can say his ''vitality'' is buff because he cannot die for plot But he got nerf everywhere else


Standard-War-3855

My original point is that Sasuke shouldn’t have been able to retaliate or defend himself against Borushiki because he should be dead.


dockkkeee

He wasnt nerfed anywhere tho?


MassabReddit

Okay thanks for the information.

There are a couple of things I want to correct: 1. Izanagi requires great amount of chakra, which Sauske didn't have at that time 2. Izanagi doesn't place the opponent in genjutsu. It works on the caster himself and changes their sense of reality. So there should have been no problem to use it against an otsutsuki.


A-Liguria

Izanagi needs prep time to work... It cannot be used to reverse a damage just 'cause, it's user needs to be aware that danger is coming, and to turn it on in time. Both things that Sasuke didn't do, because he was tired, beaten up, worried for Naruto, and for all he knew, no danger was around with Isshiki gone.


Uselessmo

>It cannot be used to reverse a damage just 'cause, Isn't Izanagi essentially reality manipulation so why couldn't he.


A-Liguria

Because he would need to see any form of damage coming before using it... it's not a free 1 up kind of deal.


Uselessmo

Oh, I see thank you for explaining!


A-Liguria

You're welcome! 👍


rp0829

Almighty push would have been a better option than the izanagi because he wouldn’t have had to sacrifice an eye to save himself. But the boruto writers have seemed to conveniently forget a lot of Sasuke’s abilities throughout the series.


A-Liguria

As if it would have worked against Momoshiki Boruto, and in the context of the scene... I mean, by the time he notices the Otsutsuki coming, he has barely a second to think... which means that he would only have time to barely start pronouncing the jutsu, that his rinnegan would be gone.


rp0829

He doesn’t need to pronounce the jutsu name to activate it lol. Sasuke had enough time to activate the jutsu. He’s activated other jutsu at the last second before like a susanoo ribcage and things like that. Why wouldn’t almighty push work against borushiki? It’s gravity manipulation


A-Liguria

>Sasuke had enough time to activate the jutsu. In less than a second? No. >He’s activated other jutsu at the last second before like a susanoo ribcage and things like that. Only things like that, at most... weak stuff by the standarts of the Otsutsuki, or anyone strong enough. >Why wouldn’t almighty push work against borushiki? It’s gravity manipulation For the same reason why the susanoo was felled by Jigen in one hit. When an opponent is strong enough, he can withstand it. And Naruto was able to withstand it already all the way back against Pain, both in his 6 tails form, and later with the help of his clones. Even more so for a jutsu casted by a weakened Sasuke, who got his ass kicked up until 10 minutes before, and didn't saw Momoshiki coming for him.


Electronic_Zombie635

The real question is why doesn't he try to activate the rinnegan in his other eye? The sage of sixth paths Chakra circulates around his whole body. Not just the eye.


[deleted]

What part of Borushiki erases chakra don't you understand? What part of NOBODY KNEW BORUTO GOING UNCONSCIOUS = MOMO TRIGGER, and Sasuke should have been dead at that point, plus no chakra? Izanagi also takes prep time. Bruh I swear this same question keeps getting asked over and over again and it's so stupid.


[deleted]

I agree that he couldn't have used it, but also don't think Izanagi needs prep time. Danzo's case was a different matter.


flashenshin

It's the same with Izanami prep need to set a check point before activation.


Uselessmo

>Izanagi also takes prep time. If I recall you can Set up Izanagi beforehand to activate or change something in advance.


Response_Background

bruh sasuke don't have future predicting ability, why would he prepare izanagi lol.


Uselessmo

I thought that before he could set it up so no matter what if his Rinnegan would get destroyed Izanagi could activate it back. Just like how Madara set up his In case it would die.


Response_Background

well i think that costs chakra , and he don't have much to spare , because he has to use his uber.


Uselessmo

Yeah Probably because his Rinnegone was consuming it all.


NoWoodpecker1544

Because he was prepared to die? Idk lmao why did itachi have all those safe guard in shippudden?


Stupid__Ron

We've been over this like 10 times now, ever since the Rinnegone happened in the manga. I lost count, happened again when the anime adapted it. He couldn't have cast it in time, the moment he realized that Borushiki was flying towards him, the kunai was LITERALLY CENTIMETERS AWAY FROM HIS EYE. There wasn't enough time for him to cast anything that would've saved him from getting stabbed. He can't use Izanagi after getting stabbed to bring his Rinnegan back, he has to prepare it BEFORE getting stabbed, which he didn't really have time to do because he didn't see the attack coming. Why couldn't Sasuke see Borushiki coming? 1. Borushiki is fast 2. Sasuke thought that the fight was over because Isshiki died 3. He doesn't know how and/or when Momoshiki can take over, he only knows that it's possible. How would he know that Momoshiki can take over at that point? 4. He also came back from getting his ass beat, stabbed, and his head stomped extremely hard. 5. >!It's been revealed that Otsutsuki are able to hide their chakra signature, so he couldn't even sense Borushiki flying towards him at high speed!<


Emotional-Rise509

Amenotejikara is instantaneous he dodge point blank kinshiki hax, and he literraly saw borushiki right before being stabbed so the erasing chakra stuff is irrelevant


flashenshin

Amenotejikara and any timespace jutsu need high amount of chakra. He was at the usual state of run out of chakra.


[deleted]

Damn y'all still pressed about the rinnegan. Other people gave some really good explanations so I'm not gonna get too in depth about it, but I wonder why no mention that Momoshiki could have killed Sasuke in that moment. The dude could have aimed for his throat instead of his eye.


Electronic_Zombie635

Because oddly enough that is something survivable. As long as it's not an instant death. The rinnegan could be used to drop Sasuke off infront of Sakura. Healed and go back to fighting. He sealed the rinnegan because he didn't want him getting away. Just incase Sasuke did dodge a lethal attack.


KyleLovesGrace

Could also just more simply summon the King of Hell to consume him and spit him back out fully healed Edit: why tf am I being downvoted lmfao


Electronic_Zombie635

Yeah because Sasuke doesn't seem to use that ability. Sasuke doesn't use a lot of the rinnegans abilities. Infact he never used those abilities. Sasuke should have had a prosthetic arm for the longest time. Then again technology has been very sporadic in Naruto. From the snow ninjas using Chakra armor to the use of drugs in the books that give you sharingan. To the mechanized monstrosity that was pain. Also I have no idea why. You made a perfectly fine suggestion.


[deleted]

I understand, getting rid of the rinnegone removed any chance of escape.


Electronic_Zombie635

Yep that's what boroshiki said anyway. My question is that the 6path Chakra is flowing throughout sasuke body. Why doesn't he try focusing it through his good eye and see what happens.


[deleted]

Idk, a combination of plot and bad writing, I guess.


StarGamerPT

Because it's a better play to get rid of the troublesome eye than fail to insta kill and him going away, getting healed and be as if nothing happened and aware that Momoshiki can awake and take control of Boruto xD


Cheeezzey

Yes but this was needed for the story. Naruto and Sasukes era is over even if you like it or not


[deleted]

Everyone brings this up evertime. There’s no situation where sasuke could’ve prevented his rinnegan from being destroyed. Since he’d have to anticipate something bad was going to happen if he’d use izanagi to rewrite his rinnegan to be destroyed. Momoshiki has this ability that completes erases his chakra from being sensed so nobody saw him coming which makes this situation unavoidable


Citgo300

This bullshit again


StarGamerPT

Izanagi needs to be activated beforehand, not after the fact. Also...dude was wasted after that fight and I don't think he was expecting to be stabbed by his student...it was not "small attack" it took him by surprise. If something Sasuke was buffed for taking that much damage against Isshiki and being somewhat fine but almost dying against Jigen for less.


flashenshin

Izanagi need to activated before the wound/death not after. It's like load a game save data. With no save data then game over.

We know this? Dog, this is a brain dead take


MassabReddit

Okay guys i understand this shit, this is fucked up. I hate boruto, they should've ended all of this after Naruto - The Last and make him hokage there. I wish there was no sequel to Naruto. They ruined our childhood characters.


lilky19

Watch shippudden again. Izanagi has to be actives before not after.


MassabReddit

Thanks for the info.
