That and what the hell is a dus ex machina? I think that's what it's called but people keep referring this image to that term.

I read somewhere that Black Zetsu is flat out undetectable(Unless you're Naruto(?)). That and his entire will was to get Madara(Or another Uchiha) to this very point so he could revive his mommy or something like that.



I mean, Isn't this consider more of a plot hole?

But no one ever says that these are.



P.S. I am not bashing. I love every character with all my heart and soul.

Deus ex machina is an asspull and that image is the perfect definition of it. Susano'o being a plot hole? -_______- Yes Black Semen is undetectable.

Indeed BZ is almost undetectable even by a JJ like madara.

Even naruto has trouble sensing him

Not a plot hole. Madara got back stabbed, 3rd time he got stabbed-three times a lady.

It's not a plot hole, they say it's an ass pull. They say that because it doesn't seem that thought out but Kishimoto foreshadowed a while back. Doesn't mean it isn't dumb though.

Deus Ex Machina: Madara was too strong and Kishimoto didn't know how to deal with him so he solved that problem by having Black Zetsu betray him.

Yata mirror and Totsuka are ass pulls as he clearly made them for convenience only.

It's a "plot-hole" because Madara was unable to predict the attack, even with his Six Paths Sage Mode and two shadows behind both him and Zetsu.

This.

Not this. U_U

The Totsuka Blade and the Yata Mirror aren't there just for the sake of being there. They were specifically included in the story to further Itachi's representation as the Shinto deities Susano'o and Izanagi.

Deus Ex Machina is when the author/creator/director/etc inputs a solution that seems to be utterly random and/or coincidental in order to solve an impossible or seemingly impossible situation.

Most of what you said is a plot hole but they actually don't affect the plot as a whole, susano being a plot hole is inaccurate...if you mean it was a kind of deus ex machina you would be correct but it did open new possibilities.

I just see it as an allusion.

Nah, not a plot hole. More like a Deus ex machina like Pumpkin Ninja described above. Seemed like Kishi was having trouble with how Madara would be eliminated so he brought in the inexperienced relic of the past known as Kaguya. At least, that's what I took from it and BZ's betrayal.

Madara doesn't have six paths sage mode, he has six paths ten-tails coffin seal. They are two different forms

BZ is undetectable. That's one of his powers. He is the land itself, he's everywhere, so trying to sense him is like sensing the earth it self.

Limbo should have seen BZ coming close to madara :/.Not to mention a stabb shouldn't harm a juubi jin that can regenerate any normal physical attack. How do I say this it was completely random and stupid.
