Who Tobi was, who the final villain would be, the ten tails- ALL OF IT. Have you ever had an amazing theory that Kishimoto didn't go with? If so, i'm here for ya- it happens to me all the time.
Theory #1 - Tobi's Identity
Although I knew that this was VERY unlikely I really hoped that Tobi would turn out to be a future/alternate world Sasuke. It would add SO much to the plot and we wouldn't have to have so many flashbacks explaining Tobi's background. It would also explain why Tobi was always so interested in Naruto as a person as well as a Jinchuuriki and
why he was treating Sasuke like an apprentice.
Sadly, this reveal didn't happen and it turned out to be Obito Uchiha, which is fine I guess but hardly anything revolutionary or unexpected.
Theory #2 - Kabuto's Vendetta Trump Cards
Kabuto lied and had special Edo Tensei coffins prepared for both Sasuke & Naruto as he held personal vendettas and is quite the twisted bastard. He lied about Jiraiya and had Kushina, Jiraiya & Minato in one unit and had the Uchiha clan or maybe just Sasuke's relatives prepared for him.
Kabuto got taken out, Minato is under Orochimaru's control and Jiraiya really IS lost under the ocean. So, fair enough.
Theory #3 - Remember that Yamato guy?
Here's the one I was most passionate about. I always thought it was odd how they focused so much on Senju DNA before in the show, way back before the war even started- it seemed random and oddly convenient to introduce a character like Yamato who had Hashirama cells. Then he got captured and hasn't been seen since. What if Yamato was Orochimaru's scheme all along? Especially with an Edo Madara on the battlefield and seemingly nothing being able to stop him I was convinced that the 1st would be reincarnated through Yamato/Yamato would get the first's full abilities and enter the battlefield. It'd be a surprise & a total gamechanger because most people had even forgotten about him and nobody would have seen this coming. Especially with the whole 'Scroll that could change this war' and the fact that reviving the First was IMPOSSIBLE a few weeks back- I was CONVINCED that this was going to happen.
It didn't. Orochimaru is currently talking to the First Hokage right now. Yamato is forever lost. Numbers is sad.

So, discuss! Do you like my theories? Got any crushed theories of your own? I know most people wanted Tobi to be Izuna but that looks pretty dead now too huh.
