Talk:Itachi Uchiha vs. Mukuro Rokudo/@comment-26363797-20171110174455

This matchup is extremely close. Like, really, really close. It can honestly go either way, but if I had to place my bets on a winner, I'd bet Mukuro would win at the end of the day.

Itachi should be the stronger and more durable of the two, but Mukuro has consistently kept up with others who are as fast or faster than Itachi. Heck, when Mukuro was incredibly weakened, he was able to create a barrier of Mist Flames that withstood Tsuna's XX-Burner, which nearly obliterated an entire island.

Mukuro can easily see through Itachi's illusions with both his experience and Daemon Spade's Devil Lens, and while Itachi's Mirror Heaven and Earth Change technique can reflect Mukuro's illusions back at him, but that can't prevent Mukuro from utilizing real illusions against him. And while this part is in theory, with the Reality Illusion Glove, he can mimick most of the techniques he sees Itachi utilize.

But what really makes me believe Mukuro takes this is his greater experience against illusions, Possession Bullet, and Realm of Heaven. Mukuro has possessed people without having to cut them with his trident before and possession is not something Itachi has a counter for.

So while I feel it's a super close fight, I believe Mukuro's speed and abilities are enough to overpower Itachi in the long run.
