The whole thing with the akatsuki being able to take form in another person's body is BS for kisame
If itachi couldn't use mangekyou through another body, then kisame's sword shouldnt be able to do the stuff it did either. According to kisame, the samehada accepts nobody but him...which in a way makes it like itachi's mangekyou. In any case, are we to assume the samehada was a clone, or did it just leave the battlefield and returned to kisame after the fight?
