I agree that this chapter sucks, but I also think you guys are jumping the gun. there's clearly going to be a lot more to this story than has been revealed yet. I remember not caring about nagato's backstory for the first few chapters, but then when all was said and done I liked it. so I guess we'll see. if left at just this then yea, it sucks, but i highly doubt this is all there will be to obito's character. we may have to watch a fight (although probably awesome) before we get our answers though. naruto doesn't even want to talk right now.

naruto has no reason to know obito. he also didn't know nagato. i dont see your point. no matter who tobi turned out to be, naruto wouldn't have known him. he had to be at least 1 generation older than naruto's.

i thought this too. it's just like the crappy prequels... at least we don't have to suffer through James Earl Jones asking about Padme... but we may have to suffer through a 'where's Rin? NNNnnooOoOOooOo!'

not really. it's assuming tobi didn't improve over that time. and also naruto doesn't have those teleportation skills yet
