I have seen half of base saying you need Senju DNA to obtain the rinnegan and the other half saying it is EMS natural evolves (or is the next step without senju DNA) into the Rinnegan. Before I use to believe EMS naturally evolved into the Rinnegan but because of the other half of base I am now confused :shrug:

So I am asking everyone now is Senju DNA needed for Rinnegan?

Don't just give me a yes or no state your reason , providing a scan from the manga would be preferable.

i believe you need senju dna...
Sage- has rinnegan + juubi
power split EQUALLY between 2 sons:
Elder Son (ES) - has eyes
Younger son - has body

Seeing as the ES got the eyes and powerful chakra, it can be assumed that he possessed a watered-down version of rinnegan (that spiral looking thing). YS got the body and great amounts of chakra. Stamina is not a problem as powerful chakra and amount of chakra equal out, as i said in my post before.

The manga has stated that it is possible for rinnegan to be achieved by "evolving/upgrading" sharingan. Whether Senju DNA is needed is still up for debate.
Using common sense, we can infer that:
If you are a descendent of ES, you need the body, in form on DNA, which is what you are missing from your genes to unlock rinnegan.
If you are a descendent of YS, you need the eyes, which is what you are missing from your genes to unlock rinnegan.

While it is plausable that because Madara awakaned the Rinnegan conveniently after he got Hashirama's senju DNA, IMO I don't think so.

A Senju could not have the EMS as we have not seen one with it

He said it himself "It's what awaits beyond the EMS", nothing about Senju DNA.

Plus Nagato was not a Senju and he had the Rinnegan.

Madara said it himself in the Manga, what are you on?


P.S I'm curious if anyone can counter argue my statement.

It wasn't stated in the Manga if it was needed or not. A lot of the base believe t does because Madara awakened Rinnegan shortly before his death, when he had Hashirama's DNA. Some believe it doesn't because of Nagato's Rinnegan. Sure he may have had the Rinnegan, but from what we know it was given to him, not awakened.

I'm not sure what to think yet, since both sides seem logical. I'm gonna wait to see if anybody else gets Rinnegan, then that should be able to decide which side is right, hopefully.

Itachi doesn't have EMS, so even if he had Senju DNA he wouldn't have Rinnegan.

I think you either need to be related to a uchiha or a senju to have the rinnegan since Tobi gave it to Nagato, Why would Tobi give it to a random kid? My theory that Nagato is compatable to the rinnegan since his a uzumaki.

Personally I believe it is necessary for an EMS to be able to evolve into the Rinnegan. Why else would Madara want Hashirama's DNA? I think he found out how to unlock the dojutsu by looking at the Uchiha tablet, and this is what motivated him into challenging Hashirama in the VOTE battle. I also think it is fitting that the Rinnegan requires both the Uchiha and Senju DNA because the So6P, who had the Rinnegan, was both Uchiha and Senju. Just my take on things so far.

This sounds good.

aren't senju and uzumaki practically the same??
And if not, it's been started that they're related do wouldn't they have the "Ys" dna?

Here's my take on it. While, yes, Nagato was and Uzumaki and they are a cousin to the Senju clan it's plausable to think that they would have some DNA in common. The Uchiha clan has had doujustu, eye techniques, since their creation so the next step seems likely that it's natural to progress to the the next level. I believe that, while taking a long period of time and effort, the next step after the EMS is the Rinnegan to have Senju DNA makes the next step easier on the user. However, this is only my take on this.

Why of course it does. My reasoning is that an Uchiha doesn't have the stamina to wield the rinnegan to it's full potential without having Senju (or Uzumaki) cells.
