yeah thats the crappy thing about shikamaru's power's, but his father most likely got past all that(if he also got over the nara laziness trait)and is a deadly opponent in shadowy locations.
when it comes to shadow arts, shijima of the 8 devils of kimon comes to mind from the ninja sroll film, that guy was a shadow master:
His father is still pretty lazy. I also don't see how he could get past that. Well except maybe if at the split second before the person is hit he releases the jutsu. What would happen if he had two people and they went different ways from a punch?
I always think of Kagehoushi from Flame of Recca for some reason.

It was clarified that Itachi really was a good guy at the end of 401...so what Madara was telling Sasuke was the truth, for the most part. Now that book is closed.
Dude, I totally forgot about Kisame. Who is supposed to be fighting him right now? (seriously, I have forgotten because it has been over 4057 chapters lol)
Well Suigetsu and Kisame's battle should already be over even if Kisame also had to fight Juugo and Karin. I mean they started before Itachi and Sasuke, and now Sasuke's been out for who knows how long, woke up, fainted again, woke up, and had to listen to Konoha's history. So if they are still fighting I'd be surprised. I just want some closure to the fight that would have been a lot more interesting than Sasuke vs Itachi.

I doubt we are going to get to see it though. That would be such a cool battle. Maybe Kishimoto just didn't know how to draw a sword battle so he didn't do it. That and it wasn't Sasuke so he probably didn't care. I was actually looking forward to that fight more than any other fight.

I think the whole Water Style attacks along with some sword fighting would have been just awesome to see. That and we could have seen what Suigetsu could actually do, and if he deserves Zabuza's sword. And there wouldn't be any hidden stuff behind their fight just two cool people trying to kill each other. And most importantly no genjutsu. I'm not a fan of it. Which may be why I don't like the Sharingan that much.

If you read kishi interviews. You would know that this is the year of the Sasuke. and maybe some Sakura and kakashi. Naruto in a line that rivals MVA.

thats the coolest magekyo ive seen. and is it the mangekyo or the perfect mangekyo{seeing as hed already gotten itachi's mangekyo, and his own on top of it, so thats like two mangekyo together. wudnt that make it as powerful as madara's}
What's new? How many people would have beaten Sasuke without him having a MS in the manga anyway?
I'm going to with everybody knew it was going to happen.Why does everything just keep getting worse for poor old Naruto. I was actually kind of hoping Jiraiya would have been wrong with Sasuke becoming Orochimaru. At least Naruto's getting Sasuke back to Konoha though. Why does Sasuke have to be such an idiot though? Konoha didn't do anything. A small group of people that aren't even important since Tsunade came in did it.
