sasuke was a sweet kid and was manipulated by evil forces like orochimaru and tobi. if tobi is obito then madara's and/or izuna's and/or RS's elder son's influence will surely come into play in a similar fashion. my money's still on madara, but we'll see

and that is comparible to obito theory how? there is nothing that pointed to minato being pain, whereas there is plenty that points to obito being tobi. i thnk you're thinking of the kagami theory

The question is why would Obito suddenly become so important in the story. He was just one character in a side story about Kakashi. But then i realized that Obito's story was always part of the main story: in chapter 8 the ninja test of team 7, there Kakashi tells the team about Obito, and a few pages after that they pass while Kakashi tells them Obito's words exactly.
it all hinges on kakashi who is, believe it not, a main character in naruto. arguably #3 in importance and definitely top 5. tobi is important sure, but not as much as sasuke or orochimaru. and maybe not even madara.

i dont really see whats so hard to believe about tobi being important to kakashi's character. story wise, they are both on relatively equal importance on either side of good and bad in about the 3rd position from the top
