In the last chapter, we see Tobirama use his Edo Tensei justu and they're basically Suicide machines, even though they can't necessarily die... I think it was good we saw the justu because it explains a few things

1) Why his Edo Tensei is not as advanced as Orochimaru's or Kabuto's: It's safe to say the reason why Tobirama created the justu is for this sole purpose, just to have them explode and clear out the battle the field and then regenerate and explode again.. That's kind of ingenious if you ask me, and it also implies that Tobirama did not intend to resurrect them with their ninjustu abilities, therefore making his Edo Tensei much weaker than Oro's or Kabuto's

2) It also explains why Tobirama labelled it a Kenjustu and forbade it, i mean even though the justu is kinda genius, it's also plain Evil and just corny..lol.. I mean resurrecting the dead and just making them basically making them blow themselves up.. It seems dirty to me, as if it's not enough to raise them from the dead..lol.. I think Tobirama realised this and decided to stop using the justu


So even though for me it's a genius idea, i think it is in a dirty, corny kinda way

Yes, I would say he is. I wonder how many times he used it before his death.

If you re - read the chapter - tobirama intentions clarify - that hes going to use techniques that go with edo tensei - meaning he's going to use his own body to go out with juuubito !

Uh... pause!

Anyway good points OP. When you think about the types of jutsu he INVENTED, regardless if you think he's strong or not, you gotta admit he's a genius.

He is a genius, imagine using 20 edo fodders with those bombs implanted, 20 of those explotions would just be like fireworks for tobirama.

He was damn rational, and he is a genius in this area. Using dead people to affect the opponent emotions, and blow them when these opponents let down their guards.

But... :) what if enemies learned about this technique?

Common sense: This is a technique is dangerous for everyone.
