I posted this because only 10 people say it last time -_- and it disappeared, it's actually really good
So after the last chapter I got thinking how and when did kabuto get caught in izanami. So I briefly thought about Izanagi and how it worked and remembered to activate the jutsu you have to do hand sign's:

But then I thought this is irrelvent itachi didn't do any hand sign's.. Or did he. I wasn't sure so I went back to the beginning of the battle when itachi first arrived and re-read. It turn's out there was one point in battle were itachi did do hand signs to activate something but it was never shown what.

After these hand sign's nothing happened no jutsu no nothing (re-read if you dont believe me I assure you) so what was it for.. After these hand signs there was a lot of talking, so he does hand signs then talks
So I believe these hand signs were to prepare for the activation of izanami(my theory) after a hell of a lot of talking itachi goes "sasuke do you remember the task of dealing with Inoshishi years ago". I bet we all thought well they didn't achieve anything after this.. but didn't they?. After kabuto's snake tail was caught, by sasuke's arrow itachi rushed to kabuto and got stabbed. So easily? that's unlike itachi to lose his cool:

Yes this is izanami people the start of the loop. I don't know if itachi needed the contact between them or just the to be close to kabuto and look at him. I am not sure how kabuto was caught :shrug: But anyway this is activation of the beginning of the loop.
After this there is a lot of talking until

We can see in later chapters izanami is still not active:

Read the second panel itachi said's right now he's in control of the battlefield. At this moment izanami is not in effect an as I said "the loop is still not in effect and what ever happens now is still real which means sasuke can die"
Finally izanami is ready to take effect and itachi put's kabuto is trapped in the loop:

The loop:
The loop will keep repeating until kabuto decides the right path that itachi has chosen for him, if he decides the wrong path the loop will start again.
The path itachi most likely has chosen for kabuto is to end edo tensei and kabuto must accept it.
How the loop goes:
As kabuto is now in the loop it will go like this if he doesn't decide the right path itachi has chosen for him:
Itachi get's stabbed (start of loop remember), crows appear puts kabuto off guard, itachi grabs sword slashes at kabuto, kabuto dodges, horn comes off and they clash (end of loop) IZANAMI. After this clash feathers will appear around kabuto and the loop will start over. It doesn't matter how itachi get's stabbed or how they clash after but it will happen ! Re-read today's chapter and you will see this is always the case.
Now the hand on kabuto's head thing will be revealed to us next week. Is this just a genjutsu and sasuke and itachi are just standing there. Or was the hand on kabuto's head just kabuto being so confused and in sock and it really is itachi's hand over kabuto. Either way my loop explanation is the same. We will find out what the last page means next week
Edit: Why did izanami take so long ? No senju DNA most likely, with senju dna danzo was able to increase the activation time of izanagi to 1 minute for each sharingan. Maybe with senju DNA izanami would of been put into effect a lot sooner.
