How come Kishame wasn't revived through Edo Tensei?

Nor Konan. Because Kabuto didn't have time to collect their DNA.

Although, the more correct, literary answer is that they had just died within the same arc, and it would be bad writing to revive them so soon after their death.

Maybe his role in the story was finished, in Kishi's point of view. Personally I can't think of what he could have brought to the table in terms of plot, he went out like a champ and that was that.

Kisame - body torn to shreds by summonings
Can't use bodies that aren't even in this dimension, so to speak. Those shark summonings most likely returned to their Mystical Shark Tank or something

Because he was inside the belly of a bunch of sharks. Good luck finding them Kabuto.

yeah I don't think there was any DNA to collect. I think Kabuto was able to obtain the others because of Zestu after most of the battles with the Akatsuki Zestu would eat the bodies to keep their enemies from obtaining their members' secrets. In the case of Kisame, He was eaten by his summons inside a water prison jutsu. so nothing was left behind.

Deidara, not sure how they got his DNA maybe before hand after he lost his arm the DNA was collected?

Konan-Was done in by Obito and left in that hidden place along side Nagato. SO I don't think Kabuto knew where to get her DNA

Nagato's was probably collected early on when he was child and had his eye switched, my guess at best.

Maybe because he destroyed his body and Kabuto couldn't collect his DNA

@All the people saying the way Kisame died prevented him from being edo'd.... shame on you.

Edo Tensei only requires DNA to be used. Kisame's blood was all over that battlefield.

Its as necro said, Kabuto did not have time to prepare their edo's. He was already in the process of contacting Obito and was not on a mission to continue collecting DNA for Edo around the time Konan and Kisame were killed.
