We know why Sasuke is so aloof around Sakura. He can't get Deidara out of his mind.

Im on Narutoversity and Itachi’s Water Fang Bullets are translated as “Lightning Fast”.

1.) Hand to Ground
2.) Top of Snout to Manda’s mouth
All before he “himself” was hit by the Blast Wave.

The correct translation is "Speed of light".

How tf could that be so mistranslated? Lol

They always confuse the speed of light with the speed of lightning.
However, Itachi's scan has the kanjis: 光速 (Kōsoku) which has no other meaning than "speed of light"

Yeah, I concede that Naruto Characters aren’t durable to Cutting/piercing attacks outside of Cloaks and Special Cases.
Gaara’s Sand Shurikens are implied to be able to cut through steel, and Naruto tanked them in Chunin Exams (And this is before his Mental Amp). Anyone who scales over that version of Naruto, cutting/piercing them would automatically scale you over the level required to cut steel…
Base TYBW Kenpachi can’t cut Naruto 
Edit: Did I say that right?

Here on this site, as far as I know, texts in bold are considered "hype texts". So it is not taken into account. I don't know if it's a rule, but I read this in a thread in the past.
But if you want an opinion from someone who understands a little bit of Japanese (I studied a little and I have a fluent friend).There is no hyperbole in the sentence about speed.

Do we just assume that all the LS statements are hyperboles cuz I’m pretty sure there’s a couple floating around

Sasuke's Kirin, Haku, and Mifune's LS expression were not seen as exaggerations, but were considered not to measure up to the other characters. Only Attack Speeds are LS
- 18,822

No, rn Kirin’s are accepted as literal, Mifune’s is as well, and then obviously Light Fang is. It’s all context dependent. Rn on wiki we accept that the most consistent speed tier for like high/top tiers in Shippuden is lightning speed, so we look at the other statements in the light of that.
- 8,413
- 10,656
Then shouldn’t itachi have LS reaction speed? And what about the laser circus statement?
- 18,822
- 27,401
You can argue his Susanoo can form itself at comparable speeds but it doesn’t scale anywhere. Laser circus violates our laser beam standards for light speed.
- 753
- 440
Not exactly. There are ways to say speed of light in a hyperbolic context, you can see a hyperbolic sentence or text according to the way it was written. In Itachi's sentence specifically, the only argument for it to be hyperbolic is that it is written in bold text. Because the way the sentence is there is no indication of hyperbole.
- 574
- 274
He could argue that itachi has FTL reaction/perception speed, that would tie in nicely with his FTL Tsukuyomi feats
- 18,822
- 27,401
You’re wrong. Because the sentence doesn’t need to be structured in any specific way to be hyperbolic. It’s context dependent, as Japanese is a very context dependent language, you’re not going to get a special character used that always denotes hyperbole or not.
- 8,413
- 10,656
Itachi would still need to consciously activate the the technique so his reaction speed should be LS. Ya cuz they move weirdly but isn’t that due to darwi controlling them?
- 18,822
- 27,401
It wouldn’t have to be LS especially since Sasuke was monologuing a lot before throwing the bolt.
- 15,657
- 11,722
He stayed because she can break his spine and then fix it, that's the kind of energy he needed in his life.
- 8,413
- 10,656
It would because itachi never put up the sussano until after sasuke threw the bolt
- 18,822
- 27,401
Formation speed =/= activation speed

More like perception speed
But like I said a few pages ago, it's not really useful in the long run as nobody moves FTE to either him or EMS Sasuke
Didn't crosscheck the Juubito stuff so I may be wrong
- 753
- 440
Yes, it is possible. Because there are certain ways to use "speed of light" in a hyperbolic tone. You can also check the ways in which the text is structured, and whether it makes any sense in terms of technique or character. For example, Itachi's text says nothing other than "Bullets emerge from the water and travel towards the enemy at the speed of light". There is no way to see a hyperbole here, the onus is on whoever indicates that it is a Hyperbole, if he cannot, then there is no reason for us to consider it a hyperbole.

FTL eyeball speed

He reacted to it regardless so idk why your trying to downplay it
Ya which scales to his reaction speed. That’s kind of a big thing with the shargian as shown in sasuke fight with Naruto.
- 574
- 274
They be switching eyeballs at FTL speeds fr
- 18,822
- 27,401
Your translation is misleading. A more proper translation would go as follows: “Light speed bullets produced from water emerge from the blind spot to gouge out the opponent”. But regardless, yes you can deduce either translation to be hyperbolic or literal depending on the context. It is not be default either. Again you are wrong.

I’m not trying to do anything, you asked a question I gave my explanation. If you don’t feel satisfied by my explanation, feel free to construct a CRT on it to get a more “official” discussion and consensus.

Reaction speed requires actual movements
Speed
Speed is simply how fast a character can move in a given amount of time. There are five types of speed used for VS purposes: Attack Speed, Combat Speed, Reaction Speed, Travel Speed, and Flight Speed. The term "Speed" normally refers to Combat Speed. The speed at which an attack moves. For...

Factoring in the distance between the Kirin cloud and itachi, I don't think it'll result it anything noteworthy if the feat is calc'd
- 8,413
- 10,656
Ok so your telling me that the reasoning for itachi not having ls reaction is because his sussano formation speed deemed more important then him actually reacting to the bolt?
Ya which is why sauske apeed got amped mid fightReaction speed requires actual movements
