First image don't work. At least not for me.

Based on anime logic anybody could dodge lightning.

I think it is obvious that it is hyperbole. Sakura is supposed to be the normal "smart one" n'stuff and she thinks it is stupid that someone can cut a particle beam. It's like ****ing air that has a charge. You can't cut it: only redirect it.

It is almost like saying you can cut the air. Stupid. That's why Sakura is thinking what she's thinking.

This is Naruto where people can use their chakra to become gods. What you said doesn't apply.

And as for hyperbole:

^ According to the source, you need to have both Mangekyo Sharingan in order to summon Susano'o. Itachi had only one eye opened as Kirin was about to reach him.

So if Itachi's a lightning timer on his death bed, then there's nothing to suggest that Kakashi could not replicate the same feat.

Itachi had plenty of time to react to kirin so iwouldnt really call him a lightning dodger as he already knew what was coming

Did you even read what I said? Itachi didn't have both of his eyes opened which would be necessary for summoning Susano'o.

Doesn't say eyes open, just that you need the eyes. Itachi still has both of his.

Itachi was blind and still using Susanoo, so its not the case.

Madara used Susanoo without even having eyes.

Even with Itachi pulling up Susanoo to block Kirin he still wasn't fast enough to actually get out the way so he still isn't fast enough to dodge lightning 😛

Are you going by the art? Because Itachi was still able to see and nothing was said about him having gone blind. For instance, he was able to see when Orochimaru appeared out of the huge snake's body ("you finally show yourself"😉. He also 'lent' his eyes to Sasuke upon his death (see when Obito was revealing Itachi's past to Sasuke). So how could he do that if he had gone blind at the end and was unable to use his own Sharingan? Also, how does one control Mangekyo Sharingan with their eyes closed? Like Amaterasu and Tsukuyomi both require at least one eye to be open, so why would Susano'o, the third ability granted by the Uchiha eyes, be any different? Another thing to note is that Susano'o's build-up is fairly quick (Itachi set up the incomplete version instantly after it was destroyed by Kirin) and we didn't it being in the process of creation while Kirin was directed towards him. I'd post the scans, but not on a computer right now so

And Madara's obviously a special case since all the shit he's done to his body. Because him being able to summon Susano'o without his eyes doesn't match anything that Kishimoto has given us about Mangekyo Sharingan or Sharingan in general.

He obviously didn't need to dodge it. Kirin didn't do any visible damage to him, it only destroyed his cloak.

The point though is that he didn't show the speed to dodge it.

But there was no need for him to show the speed to dodge it. That doesn't prove anything in regards to Itachi's speed or reflexes.

If he could dodge it, why would he bother using Susanoo? Was he just feeling lazy?

Because he was ready to die and wanted to show Sasuke what Mangekyo Sharingan are capable of as well as make the fight more believable?

Regardless. What I'm asking is did he showcase the speed to dodge the lightning called down by Kirin? If he didn't, you can't claim he has the speed to dodge it.

@Ty: Not just the art. He was already well in the process of losing his sight. Not long earlier we saw Sasuke through Itachi's point of view and it was heavily degraded, and we know using the M.S wrecks the eyes the more you use it or the more potent the usage. Like how Sasuke's eyes were starting to go after his extensive usages, so its not unlikely at all that the already near blind Itachi who was already using M.S lost his sight after the final use of Susanoo. There was even him stating he needs Sasuke's eyes to.. something to do with getting back the light.

And Oro? People are known for sensing chakra, especially someonehe's been around for so long. Plus he knows about the curse mark.
