I really think that it is the child of Riful and Dauf. When Priscilla killed Riful, she didn't know that Riful was pregnant. The child survived the attack and emerged from Riful's womb. That is...
October 29, 2012 02:05 PM
Agreed. With all of the hints about Tobi's identity over the past few years, it wouldn't have made sense for Tobi to be anyone but Obito. However, I think the author messed up his opportunity to...
February 26, 2012 02:11 PM
I wonder what that scroll from Orochimaru's secret chamber is. If it can change the course of the war, I'm thinking it's something big like an army. Maybe he planned to Edo Tensei the entire...

From this chapter we know that the chakra chains are a power that comes from the Rinnegan's Outer Path. I wouldn't be surprised if later on we find out that the Uzumaki Clan inherited the Sage's...

Naruto already has the Yang half of the Kyuubi sealed inside of him. The Yin half resides inside the Death God.
For some reason I think that Naruto might get his bijuu extracted. The reason I...
October 30, 2011 10:01 AM
If Kushina knew about the Death God Seal, then my feeling is that it didn't originate with Minato, but with the Uzumaki Clan. Tsunade being a Senju (which were allies and distant relatives of the...
October 29, 2011 08:50 PM
I am also of the belief that Madara will be sealed by Tsunade with the Death God Seal. Tsunade is the hokage after all. And every hokage that preceded her has ended up in the belly of the death...
October 28, 2011 12:19 PM
2. Kyuubi may have been reacting to Madara's chakra or will, not necessarily the eye. Anyway, what you're saying about Tobi's eye is in contradiction with what we've recently learned about Madara's...
October 28, 2011 09:15 AM
1. That Tobi's body is partially made out of Zetsu goo could point to Tobi = Zetsu clone theory or Tobi = Obito fixed up by Zetsu theory, or Tobi = Zetsu's other half theory, or any theory involving...
October 27, 2011 06:06 PM
My reaction to the theory is that there is not much evidence to support it. The facts that you listed at the end of your post don't point to Izuna specifically. They could be used in support of...
October 26, 2011 11:36 AM
Apparently Madara obtained Hashirama's power during their fight but did not have the Rinnegan then. Only later did he unlock the Rinnegan, shortly before his death. I think Madara spent his final...
October 21, 2011 08:00 AM
Izuna is dead. He's also not the right age to be Tobi either (way too old). Plus, where did Izuna get his Sharingan? Why would he wear a mask? Why would he call himself Madara? Why does his...
February 10, 2011 10:11 AM
I'm not sure I understand why the Sage would even have these weapons. We already know that a person with the Rinnegan has the ability to rip out someone's soul, eat it with the King of Hell, or...
January 02, 2011 03:13 PM
After Naruto and Sasuke are done getting their power-ups, they are going to be godlike. There doesn't seem to be anywhere to go in terms of power once someone becomes an uber-sage. I think the best...
December 20, 2010 08:57 PM
I'd say that the main villain of this story has to be Tobi. He had a part in both the nine-tails attack and the Uchiha massacre, which were the defining moments of Naruto's and Sasuke's lives...
December 18, 2010 10:56 PM
It may be possible but, without any evidence to suggest that Nidaime's Edo Tensei was so different from the current version, it is not likely. Plus, if Tobirama had Edo Tensei'd someone as dangerous...
December 18, 2010 09:09 PM
If Tobi were an Edo Tensei, why would he use Izanagi to survive Konan's paper bomb attack? And then there is also the issue of how Tobi doesn't regenerate like an Edo Tensei. Plus, he is able to...
December 15, 2010 03:30 PM
There are a couple problems with the Tobi=Shisui theory. One major problem is the flashback fight between Tobi and Minato. If Tobi was really Shisui under that mask, then he was already partially...
November 28, 2010 09:13 AM
The way Tobi/Madara says that the eye was his to begin with and that he was the 2nd sage of the 6 paths, makes it seem like Madara possessed the Rinnegan and then transplanted it into a baby Nagato. ...
November 06, 2010 08:29 PM
I don't think defeating the caster will stop the Edo Tensei. I think I remember Orochimaru saying that. There may be another way of defeating Edo Tensei besides using the Death God Seal. Maybe a...
November 06, 2010 01:59 PM
Even though the Sharingan is hax, there were drawbacks. You had to kill your closest friend to get MS, then if you overused MS, you'd go blind. The Rinnegan had drawbacks too. For example, Nagato...
October 31, 2010 11:05 AM
I think it's understandable for Orochimaru to have messed up. Unlike Sarutobi, Orochimaru was not familiar with Shiki Fuujin. If he was trying to summon Minato, I think it would have been a dud...
October 31, 2010 10:14 AM
Kabuto is totally trying to sabotage Tobi's plans. I think short-term, Yamato will be used to enhance the power of the Zetsu clone army. However, Yamato was one of Orochimaru's experiments, so I...
October 31, 2010 10:04 AM
To me, the opposing idea, that Orochimaru could have summoned Minato with Edo Tensei, requires a bigger leap. First it requires that Minato was, in fact the one being summoned. Then it requires that...
October 31, 2010 08:03 AM
He didn't know who was in any of the coffins before he tried to stop the third one. So, it's speculation to think that Sarutobi suspected Minato would be in the third coffin. Also, it's the...
October 30, 2010 02:02 PM
Yes. I already know this. That is why I said Sarutobi may have only thought he stopped it.
October 30, 2010 09:14 AM
This is debatable actually. Orochimaru would not have been able to successfully summon Minato because Shiki Fuujin trumps Edo Tensei, not the other way around. That's the whole reason why Sarutobi...
October 29, 2010 11:41 PM
I'd say we could rule out the brother. Izuna was nothing more than a plot device that enabled Madara to acheive EMS. He does not threaten Madara in any way, since he never reached a level higher of...
October 28, 2010 11:04 PM
It is not possible.
1. we already know how Kabuto's Edo Tensei surpasses Orochimaru's. Kabuto can allow his Edo Tenseis to have more free will in using their abilities. This was revealed in...
October 28, 2010 10:01 AM
Grrr. Edo Tensei does not summon the body. It summons the soul. Jeez. I should put that into my signature.
October 23, 2010 04:39 PM
There was a theory a long time ago about Zetsu having an advanced or evolved form of the Byakugan. It was based on the abilities Zetsu showed in Chapter 255. He was able to look long distances...
October 11, 2010 05:06 PM
If I go by the abilities we've seen each hokage use in battle, then I would say that Minato would be the most impressive. His space-time tech is extremely powerful, both offensively and defensively....
October 09, 2010 11:33 PM
Hinata doesn't have to recognize Tobi's chakra to be able to tell something about his body (and I don't think Ao would be able to recognize Tobi's chakra either). She would be able to see whether...
October 09, 2010 09:18 AM
I don't think that the left side of Tobi is the other half of black Zetsu. When Tobi was replacing his missing arm (after the Danzou vs Sasuke fight), we saw a portion of the left side of Tobi's...
October 09, 2010 06:03 AM
Yes, there's a seal on Danzou's arm, but the issue is that Ao's Byakugan saw the chakra lines in Danzou's right arm and shoulder even though Danzou still had the seal on his arm at that point. ...
October 08, 2010 09:44 PM
I think Hinata is experienced enough. At least there's no reason to believe that she can't see as much as Ao can. Arguably, her vision would be better than Ao's since she's a Hyuuga and she has two...
October 08, 2010 09:23 PM
But even if Ao didn't get a look at Tobi with his Byakugan, Hinata did. Right after the fight between Itachi and Sasuke, Hinata used her Byakugan to make sure that Tobi was still inside Shino's bug...
October 02, 2010 10:59 AM
It's only the soul that's summoned with Edo Tensei. We saw Kabuto killing waterfall ninjas - these were his sacrifices for the technique. The body is not summoned at all, even in Kabuto's version...
September 28, 2010 09:27 AM
I was thinking about this too, but the thing is, we've already seen Tobi's scalp (hair), so there's nothing to hide there. And I think the reason why the mask was extended in this way was for...
September 28, 2010 09:22 AM
So the idea is that Izuna never died, but willingly gave his eyes to Madara. And then when Madara was killed by Hashirama, Izuna took the eyes back and then somehow became a sage. Then, he gave his...
September 26, 2010 07:51 PM
Konan was pretty powerful. Her abilities are comparable to Deidara's in that they can both attack with long range explosives - Deidara used clay, while Konan used paper. And they each had their...
September 26, 2010 05:48 PM
Izuna never actually had EMS. He only got up to the level of regular MS, so I suppose you could say that Izuna made it to the same level of power as Itachi. Kishi didn't spend too much time on...
September 24, 2010 07:39 AM
It was a beautifully done chapter. Konan's death was very sad, as long as you don't think about how the four of them died - Nagato and Yahiko killing themselves, Nagato killing Jiraiya, and Konan...
September 20, 2010 06:34 PM
We don't know whether that eye is a transplant yet. Maybe it's Madara's eye in Obito's body. Who knows? We also don't know where the warping ability comes from. The only clue that we have is that...
September 19, 2010 04:56 PM
The argument just isn't solid enough to dismiss Obito theory. If a "death" in Naruto were conclusive, then it would be a fact that Kisame was dead the first time, Orochimaru was dead the first time,...
September 19, 2010 07:31 AM
You're right. Let's just forget about every physical clue we have about Tobi. :eyeroll
Yeah. I had the same problem. If we take the SF translation as the correct one, then Madara is supposed to...
September 19, 2010 06:47 AM
Obito is supposed to be dead, but so is Madara. So, that's not really a reason to discount Obito theory. In fact Madara is supposed to be dead for two reasons - 1. because he was killed by...
September 17, 2010 06:09 PM
One of the questions I still have in my mind is "How did Madara survive his fight with Hashirama?". Everyone is saying that Madara used Izanagi to survive that fight. But wait a second ... Madara...
September 17, 2010 05:46 PM
I don't think Nagato's eyes ever went back to normal. If they went back to normal, Kishimoto would have at least shown it to us, like he does with the Sharingan. As far as the manga goes, he's...
September 16, 2010 11:43 PM
There was an indication that he had it beforehand. When Nagato met Naruto, he recalled the two painful moments in his life. The first, was the death of his parents (before he met Yahiko). And in...
