Brother it can be a combat applicable reaction. They’re not mutually exclusive, it would be that if Sauske responded in a manner he cannot replicate for his offensive actions e.g. tilting the head side ways to evade a beam
You need to prove the speed at which you throw your hands, the same speed cannot be employed for slicing someone’s throat
You’re not doing that and you’re just parroting the same line about how it’s a blatant reaction speed feat and stopping there without further elaboration as to why it can’t get used for combat as well and ignoring all the points I’ve brought up so far in support of it
That's not for me to have to explain,
If
you believe that a reaction feat is combat-applicable, you need to provide evidence for that to be the case, and so far, there isn't any.
I understand precognition, you don’t have to keep repeating something I know, something that doesn’t conflict with anything I say, the Sharingan can only make your mind register something is happening very quickly but if you register an attack
but aren’t fast enough you won’t be able to dodge or tag them (ch37), whatever timed attack you launch is still relying on bodily function that works separately, no different from striking unless it’s the examples I’ve shown at the start like tilting side ways and stuff
Idk how kishimoto spelled these out for people to still somehow not get it?
You're addressing Lee's comments as if they're infallible, but that scene showed his own lack of understanding about the Sharingan.
For one, you're addressing things Lee said while Sasuke still had the 2T Sharingan, one far inferior that doesn't even provide the level of foresight I brought up in that message, and not only that, he needed a 5x amp via the 1st gate just to get around the 2T Sharingan's inferior Precog.
FV quite literally shows the opposite once Sasuke awakens his 3T Sharingan, KN0 Naruto was too fast for his mind and body to respond to, but a mature 3T Sharingan's reaction amp was so vast it didn't even matter.
- Also few attacks matter to the precog because the way he gets the images with his kinetic vision is by seeing how power builds through cells and muscles in the body. Jumping in the air and then slashing with the sword isn’t the same as moving around on the ground where you can see power in the body/muscles and the way the arm would swing. You can’t do that with swords, have don’t have different parts that tell you how they move like a body nor the tiny cells
Being on the air or ground, quite literally, doesn't matter to his precog.
Not only is that never stated to be a weakness, nor does anything imply it's less effective that way, but that also just makes 0 sense.
For one, you don't have to be staring at the muscles and cells themselves in isolated and constant movement for it to work, the same way just by having clothes on doesn't hinder Sasuke's ability to observe and precog you passively, despite it being largely muscle movement reading his precog accounts for the movements his targets clothes make along with their entire body despite being not made up of muscle and biological cells.
The Sharingan's attention to detail can go down to the cellular level, see through objects, see chakra as colors, and again, perceive things far slower than they travel, and see each individual movement as a framed picture for him to analyze.
Being in the air doesn't change the motions Mifune has to make to draw his sword, nor the force he needed to put into his legs to jump up there.
As for the sword point, that's equally irrelevant because a sword's entire trajectory is based on the physical movements of its wielder. If this were an unconventional sword that moved independently of its wielder's thoughts, then you would have a point.
Otherwise, much like how clothes are still accounted for in Sasuke's visions of the future, a sword would be too, being inanimate never mattered for his precog.
Unless you can prove Mifune's sword moves independently from his thoughts, then Mifune's physical movements would telegraph the path his sword would travel to reach Sasuke.
- Sharingan can easily be argued to amp speeds, Chapter 46, guy can react but after sasuke activates sharingan he gets blitzed. NOTHING to do with reaction instead he’s gettin sped up
Shinobi can blitz ppl whenever they want with Shunshin.
What even ties Sasuke's movement speed in that instance back to him activating the Sharingan rather than him using it to assist his foot to aim and kick a Kunai at someone trying to get away at high speeds, and then Shunshining after him?
- Lotta these arguments (precog) are stuff used to discredit people from getting scaling to the thing they dodged not to say the thing they speed with which dodged (in our case striked) regardless of speed can't be replicated
Or are people using the lore of the series to accurately depict the feats?
It's not an attempt to discredit something if it's a valid point; bringing up Sasuke's actual powers that assist him in the exact regard this feat is talking about isn't some form of gatekeeping.
Why would we try to ignore that massive reactions buff the Sharingan gives Sasuke at all times, just to force this to be a combat speed applicable feat?
Even if Sasuke's feat is pure reaction, he does it while using 3T, and Raikage later blitzes his MS basically, so wouldn't it scale to Raikage+ regardless?
He does in the sandbox, yeah.
