Obito took off his mask and Kisame recognized him as Madara. As far as I know, none of the living Naruto characters actually seen Madaras face and well.... Obito isn't well known in the ninja world to begin with, so probably only close friends would figure out. Him using mask on the konoha attack (if it was actually him) kinda made sense, him using mask all the time was just a cheap way for Kishi to hide who he really is.

Anyway, they hinted way too much that Tobi = Obito, to the point where it was too obvious and It would just be boring and retarded to have him as Obito... and I kinda created unrealistic expectations thinking I would get my mind blown when Tobi would take off his mask :<

No...Kisame must have known him as Obito in the underworld(?)....That big statue at the Valley of Beginning was extremely well known. There was no way for Kisame to not know Madara if he's present in front of him

Could he have been saying "Madara"-sama, as in noting that he wasn't really Madara.

well...only an instance was shown in the anime when Tobi revealed himself to kisame after Itachi's death

it's certainly a possible interpretation that kisame was being facetious. since he's dead, we probably will never know for sure, but his intonation can work both ways

now would be a good time for the current flashback to end, but since it probably won't just yet, we may very get to see kisame again along with the rest of madaras lil gang...obito and nagato

I think there will be more:

i) Obito's learning form Madara
ii) Madara's pre-planned (?) death
iii) Meeting of Obito and Yahiko
iv) Exploit in Konoha (Kyuubi incident)

Main will be the emergence of Akatsuki and its relation with the Great Five Nations
