yea, that is true and i don't have a big problem with it. but in retrospect what could itachi really have done to justify tobi not taking action? if tobi needed help taking itachi out, he could have just asked nagato. the two of them would certainly have beaten itachi, assuming just one of them couldn't in the first place, which is somewhat likely, but more risky

I don't mind if there are such less logical parts since it's about 12 years of making a story where almost every week the author has to come up with something unexpected and cool.
i totally agree. that doesn't mean inconsistencies aren't worth talking about or having a problem with. all in all, i love the story and i think it's amazing to keep a serial going this long at such a high level. but there are the occasional bs moments like izanami
