Kishi would have definitely put thought into how Danzou looked at this time. Therefore, I don't think its a mistake.

We know that Danzou had the bandages as far back as when he was in cahoots with Hanzou. We also know he didn't have those bandages back when he was on Hiruzen's team.

For me, this implies that he started wearing those bandages soon after Hiruzen became Hokage, around the time he formed Root. As to the exact reason he began wearing them... well we can't say for sure, but I assume he did have either a wound on his eye or a sharingan at that time considering he stated "nothing is out of the question when it comes to the village" and was pressing his hand to his eye.

If I were to guess.... ya I'd assume he had a sharingan under his right eye bandage and was undergoing senju DNA experimentation in his right arm.

Best reason for this? Well if he was referring to sacrifice for the village, than pressing his hand against an eye that he obtained from possibly killing an uchiha for it (obviously this eye would not be shisui's but someone elses) would make sense. Also, if it were for the village, he would gladly undergo risky experimentation in regard to Senju DNA if Oro had confidence in it.

As for the sharingan's on his right arm, we have to assume that did not happen until after the massacre, case in point, the metal arm guard/ seal he wore on it afterward.

I don't know why he had to have used an ability on the Mother. Just because he was playing with his face doesn't mean he has a Sharingan and used a Genjutsu on her. He 100% did not have Shisui's eye, and I think it would be a little strange for him to have another random Uchiha's eye. Wouldn't anyone notice the eye went missing? A Sharingan is a very secretive eye, they wouldn't let a missing Sharingan go without knowing exactly what happened to it. And I don't think the Third Hokage would just let Danzo have a Sharingan. Maybe he just was always wearing the eye bandages because he knew he wanted to obtain a Sharingan and didn't want it to look weird when he actually got one, this way he didn't have to explain why he has bandages on when he finally obtained the eye.

Same goes for the bandages on his arm. But to refute Floydicals point about him already having Senju DNA. I don't think he has in implanted into his arm yet. For one simple reason, if you look closely the bandages on his arm do not cover his entire hand. He still has half of his hand uncovered. If he had Hashi's DNA in him already, his entire arm, hand included, would look a weird color, and people would notice. So for that, I don't think he even has Hashi's DNA yet. Oh and another reason I just thought of, I don't think he would even have access to Hashi's DNA yet. He obviously got it from Orochimaru, but Orochimaru was still a part of Konoha in this chapter. Oro didn't get Hashi's DNA until he defected and robbed Hashi's tomb when the Third Hokage came to kill him.

It appears as though that scene and Orochimaru's departure are very close together. Danzo didn't get Shisui's eye from the Uchiha massacre, he got it prior to that from Shisui. There should be a big enough time gap from when Shisui killed himself to when the Uchiha massacre occurred for it all to fit within the timeline.

Kabuto and Sasuke are around the same age, so if you compare Kabuto's age at the point he's recruited by Danzo to Sasuke's age around the time of the massacre it all fits together.

I'm sorry but Kabuto is older than Sasuke, they are not about the same age. Sasuke is 16, Kabuto is 23. Danzo going to the orphanage happened 17 years ago. Sasuke wasn't even born yet. The Uchiha massacre happened 8 years ago. Danzo is years away from getting Shisui's eye.

Well I said Shisui died a couple of days before the mission, but as for Kabuto and Sasuke being around the same age, i don't think so just, remember Kabuto was at least 16? During the Chunin exams when he met Team 7.
