Self-explanatory title.
1. Itachi creating a big multi-step plan that involves making Sasuke fight him, getting pressured just enough to still believe it was a real fight, but also not get seriously hurt or killed, then getting pressured so that he'd rely on Orochimaru's power and release him, so that Itachi would seal him away and rid Sasuke of him, then manipulate Sasuke into awakening the Mangekyō through his death, and then awakening the EMS thanks to his eyes. He did all that while he had a failsafe in place to deal with "Madara's" interference through an implanted Amaterasu booby trap, and a plan to use Kotoamatsukami on Sasuke in case he went rogue through Naruto. He put all that together while dying of a terminal illness, and covering his tracks from both the Akatsuki, Konoha, and Sasuke; all while giving an Oscar worthy performance to boot!2. Naruto and Tobirama's Hirashin-Rasengan Combo against Jinchuriki Obito after Naruto figured out that Senjutsu works on TSO and Obito without even having to talk about it with Tobirama.
3. Hiruzen breaking down the TSO's Effects right after getting hit by one.
4. Jiraiya figuring out Nagato's secret, all while dealing with the Rinnegan's abilities on the first try.
5. Kidomaru analyzing Neji's fighting style, and discovering all of the Byakugan's weaknesses.
6. Minato expertly countering Kamui on his first encounter with it.
7. Sasuke had some crazy big brain moments in his fight with Deidara. Figured out that his bombs are weak to Raiton, neutralized them, cleverly used genjutsu to trick Deidara, pretended to drop his sword and allowed himself to get mortally wounded just so he can get a chance to get close to the airborne Deidara, among other crazy moments. Oh I almost forgot his quick thinking that allowed him to survive C0 by summoning Manda, using genjutsu on it, having it take the brunt of the blast, and cleverly using reverse summoning.
8. He (Itachi) also quickly figured out how to counter the Rinnegan against Nagato, something that Naruto couldn't pull even with prior knowledge. And he figured out how to stop the seemingly flawless Edo Tensei, almost singlehandedly ending the war.
9. Minato thoroughly broke down the TSOs and their range, and was the first to do so to such an extent.
10. Shikamaru VS Temari.
11. Shikamaru had a multistep plan to get Tayuya's summons under his control, then used the shadow posession to break him out of the genjutsu, and used Tayuya's statement about her only having a flute as a weapon to his advantage, intentionally throwing out a kunai as a ploy to get Tayuya to come close so he can trap her with his shadow strangle.
12. Minato and Tobirama's Double Hirashin Manuever, capitalizing on Naruto and Sasuke's Amaterasu Rasenshuriken rush, against Obito without even having to talk about it with to Naruto and Sasuke.
13. Naruto figuring out how to incapacitate the 3rd Raikage by using his Hell Stab attack against himself.
14. Itachi knew Kabuto would go after Sasuke and protected him instead. He also figured out he and Sasuke could use genjutsu on each other to free themselves.
15. Naruto transformed into Kiba to confuse him and Akamaru, then when Kiba sniffed him out and smacked him, Naruto transformed again into Akamaru to play mind tricks on Kiba, then when Kiba punched Akamaru away, Naruto caught him slipping.
Hope this is fun or interesting. So, let's list?
