I still expect that Obito will somehow become a Narutard
So i don't think he will be killed in a battle, i mean not by the good guys. I don't know how we will get to that point, but with all the build up until now i would be disappointed if he just died in a big fight. Now he even met Minato, and the only one who's missing now is Rin. I wouldn't be surprised if for the next chapter Kishi went for the extreme: suddenly we are inside Obito's eternal tsukiyomi where Rin is his girlfriend, the Uchiha clan is alive in Konoha and Naruto is hokage as he promised to him, etc. An idyllic world that would slowly fall apart or Obito slowly realizes how empty this fake world is. Also Sasuke and Madara could have a major role in breaking the idyllic picture because their eyes should give them some level of immunity against the tsukiyomi (especially Sasuke since he has Itachi's eyes). For this dream world Kishi could also create some interesting artistic drawings, that would be fun. We know that the 10-tails that he is using is imperfect, that is an obvious sign that Obito's dream will have to fall apart when the 10-tails inside him breaks down. If he breaks down when his dream fails and cries or something like that i'm sure Naruto will be there to help him (at that point Madara should try to use him again, also the alliance along with Sasuke will try to kill him) and at that point Obito will be convereted by Naruto.

When I saw the title of the chapter, I automatically assumed that it had to have been Madara... Was pleasantly surprised by the twist.

Felt a little too convenient for Minato's mark to still be present on Obito's body, but I like that the Fourth is aware of who he's facing now and who he faced then.

That's an interesting take on what'll happen next. Though I don't see Obito, as broken as he is, having the kind of feelings that would lead him to realizing that life inside the genjutsu Matrix is empty. As "real" as Tsukuyomi's impact on the senses is, I think he'd be satisfied.

But having the dream world break down and dissipate because the Ten Tails was incomplete.. that'd make sense. And I'd expect that you'd be right about Sasuke/Madara being able to resist Tobi's illusion to some extent, especially since we've already seen Sasuke overcome Itachi's Tsukuyomi.

On another note: I kinda want to see Obito wreak havoc on the Alliance first. That's a more Madara-esque course of action but after that nonsensical flop of a fight Obito put up against Kakashi... c'mon. lol

I don't think you understand what linear thinking means.

It has been hinted that Obito intended to double cross Madara since a little more than 70 chapters but if you think this made a difference in the discussion about his worth as a villain you really don't understand the reason people have a problem with Tobito.
Perhaps, however, people in this forum sometimes dissect the manga chapter by chapter. And when they do that, they miss the big picture

Quote:
I remember debating whether Obito's jutsu requires MS, and i thought it shouldn't since he is spamming it and that would require not only much chakra but also his eyes should burn out like Sasuke's did.
but back when we had this debate it was speculated that it's due to his zetsu body and hashirama cells that obito can spam whatever he wants. so far, i see no reason to think otherwise

Quote:
I did double-check the chapter for signs of that, but i couldn't notice any. There should be at least a minor hint about that happening, otherwise what would be the point of showing us how crappy Obito performed there. If there was a hint we could argue if Obito deliberately missed Kakashi's vital organs with his black rod. Or maybe i missed something in that chapter...
i agree there are no hints, but we do know that obito (as tobi) encountered kakashi several times and never tried to fight him or more significantly, he never tried to take kakashi's sharingan. that was one of the biggest sellers to me of tobi being obito. so now we have this horrible fight where obito seems to barely try compared to what we know he can do. my hunch is that there will be an explanation in the future than obito can't bring himself to kill kakashi out of friendship and that he does still harbor feelings for this real world.

my problem with obito throwing the kakashi fight is that obito started it in the first place...

That was a little confusing. Madara was indeed going to use the Rinne Tensei, but at the end he seemed fine with how things played out. So Minato figured out it was Obito he was fighting years ago. Though how did Obito become the jinchuriki after he was slashed by Minato. Did Obito call Mianto the friend of the traitor? Did he mean Kakashi for letting Rin die?

Well at this point it is more likely than not, obito thru the fight against Kakashi... My best guess is that you can't be influenced by tsukiyomi if you are dead.

Anyways, yay obito for becoming the jinchuriki. I hope you shrink back to regular ninja size

Something has been bugging since the 3rd and the rest was brought back to life.

Does this jitsu brings them back at the age they die or in their prime?

Because the 3rd was brought back the same age(from looking at him) he died. But in Madara case he was brought back to life in his prime state. If you check out the first page it shows Madara when he was old and about to die, in the flash back panel. Or did I miss something important in the past chapters about Madara saving Obito?

Wasn't the White Fang(Kakashi's father) called a traitor? Maybe Mianto and Kakashi's father was best buddies.

I'm pretty sure I got Kakashi's father's nickname wrong

Might have been already said but I think the reason Madara wasn't to upset of his failure. Was because as soon as Obito becomes jinchukwhatever it would get out of the 1st jitsu and barrier.

That will give Madara the chance to get a full swing at the first. But I'm pretty sure if that happens the 1st will just put him down again and put his focus on Obito. Leaving Madara to dye his hair pink and going into full emo mode.

kabuto modified the jutsu to bring madara back at his prime state. basically it's plot-kai since edo-old madara would have sucked

Yes I understood that, no need to tell me about the forest and the tree next. I'm only asking you to elaborate on what you had precisely in mind when you said this.

The better translation reads "my fellow judas" so he was talking to sasuke, by comparing the fact that they both left konoha and tried to destroy it

I'm still confused about how this exactly resulted in obito becoming the jinchuuriki? when did he perform the seal? his white hair shows that madara was clearly planning to sacrifice him, so i don't think this is part of madara's plan at all

I can see obitio reviving madara now, and killing him so show the extent of his power (mayeb finally using the wood jutsu just ot mock madara) then there's a flashback showing how obito knew that madara was controlling the mizukage into kidnapping rin, so she'd be killed in front of obito's eyes, and that he decided to play along to get to power to destory madara with his own two hands as revenge and then revive rin, and tsukiyomi the world into how he wants it

Linear thinking is just being logical,orderly.It's not an insult.Fantasy stories usually make connections between unrelated concepts,being nonlinear.

This is an ongoing work of fiction with cliffhangers, twist and curves. Reading this forum, which I love by the way, I have seen many people get upset prematurely over recent developments. No one knows the author's intent, we can only speculate (which is one of the goals of a forum). At any given moment the Author can choose to retcon (a dirty word in this forum) any of our preconceived notions, making any previous conclusions made invalid.

Anyways I have not been disappointed yet by this manga. I think when the manga is over, and people go back and read 14 years worth of content, they might feel the same way (or not), but at least then their disappointment will be justified

So uh, do people still think it's "Blatantly obvious" that Obito is going to change sides?

To me Naruto grew less and less important and interesting over the years. I first signed in a couple of years ago to discuss Naruto topics but, in my humble and personal opinion, things got out of hand a long time ago.
I liked the beginning where team work was necessary and good thinking was needed for winning fights. Nowadays everyone has an uber attack which the world has never seen before, everyone can destroy mountains and guys who once were real monsters are sidekicks because they lack strength. That and all those plot holes disappointed me a little bit too much.
I still read the chapters but it's more because it became a habit rather than with OP where I really can't wait till wednesday morning and the next chapter is on

Juubito should be stronger than Edo madara and hashirama now right? We foresee a powerup for naruto with the other half of ninetails. Maybe madara bestows something to sasuke??
There are still quite a few ppl missing from the battlefield. With the return of the 5 kage I wonder if the Edo kages will somehow be spirited away from the conflict finally leaving it to the living to resolve this.
I do hope tho that we get some version of the infinite tsukiyomi. Maybe doing so will fill in some more gaps in the background story

in shounen series' it's a pretty much certainty that whenever a large scale technique or plan is talked about, then we will see it at some point. so the chances are extremely high for the moon's eye plan happening at least to an extent with an incomplete juubi. i wouldn't even be that shocked if obito managed to get all of kurama and hachibi and perform a full infinite tsukiyomi. that would just mean that sasuke takes over, saves the world and then resurrects naruto and bee with rinne tensei. or naruto could manage to stay alive through uzumaki prowess long enough for sasuke to finish the job and perhaps put kurama back in naruto to save him. perhaps sasuke takes minato's half of kurama for himself in that case? it is the darker half after all. in any case, usually the worst happens before things get better and in this war's case, the worst would be a complete juubi and perfect infinite tsukiyomi

No, Obito is not a genius, and by genius i do not mean having special abilities but to have a brilliant mind that can analyze jutsu and ninja moves and abilities in a very short time and solve secrets and think of a plan to counter the enemy, to learn the enemy's jutsu and fighting style, to discover weaknesses in seconds, etc. To be a genius the way Itachi and Minato are.

I agreed with that one, but that's another matter. He still can copy it or at least analyze it and come up with an effective counter move.

Well if we go by your explanation then we could also assume that the reason for that is Obito trying to prove to himself that he has not emotions when it comes to killing Kakashi. I mean he wants to prove to himself that by going into a fight with Kakashi and killing him in cold blood. But it might be that he fails similarily to how Sakura failed to kill Sasuke in the last moment. Of course not exactly like Sakura since nobody can be as lame as she is in her worst moments

well i'm not sure how this is even a debate but he is certainly a genius no matter how you slice it. is he the superior genius of the series? no. i'd probably give that to minato. like you said, itachi and minato are a little faster on their feet, although keep in mind that he fooled itachi pretty completely and got his way in the end. and minato had quite a lot more fighting experience than obito did when they fought. we saw obito learn edo-tensei instantly so he's a quick learner as well. not to mention his impressive skill right after implanting rinnegan. how can he not be called a genius? he was able to control the gedo mazo, the kyuubi, the 6 jinchuuriki, the juubi and now made himself the juubi jinchuuriki. we've never even seen someone make themselves a jinchuuriki aside from the rikuudo sennin. so yea, obito's a genius

the effect hashirama's cells has on sharingan techniques was explained during danzo's fight with sasuke. they improve their capability. it's a fact

sure, that's entirely possible. we dont have the benefit of knowing what obito is thinking like we usually do with team 7 and most of the other good guys. even some bad guys sometimes. but obito is usually pretty tough to read like when he fought minato and in these current fights. we can only know this once the revelation about him still harboring feelings for kakashi comes about
