Nagato's Rinnegan allows him to rip souls from people bodies by touching them, we saw Naruto's soul coming out of his body when he fought Edo Nagato, so I'm pretty sure its inside the body.

yea that was strange it somewhat confuses me but at the same time if the sould was in the body and not occupying another dimension then all bodily wounds would be fatal because the sould would be torn there would be no need for RDS or Pains ability.

how would obito know when to use kamui, he can only see the reaper when it grabs his soul.

His soul is bound to his body; if his body is in his pocket dimension, his soul will reside their also. But Obito wouldn't know to use Kamui since Shiki Fujin is invisible.

Maybe only certain things can touch the soul. That could be why bodily wounds don't hurt the soul but something like the Shinigami's hand can touch it.

That is a great point i have never thought of that.

But since the soul is not in the original 3 or 4 dimensions and the reaper can still reach it wouldnt it be able to reach into the kamui dimension?

First off I'll go ahead and say yes. RDS requires physical contact so it would work so long as Minato grabs Obito. We have seen that Obito has to touch someone to bring them into his demension. So the second Minato grabs Obito, or Obito grabs Minato in order to Kamui them...it could concievably be game over if Minato were to use RDS. Only issue is getting contact in the first place ^.^

Well I would say its because it resides in another dimension and also if you noticed when pain used that jutsu only he and the person it was effecting could see the soul.

Do you know if RDS is instant? Because if it is tobi is screwed because all of his attacks involve physical contact outside of kamui, but the real question i had is can the reaper reach into kamui

Didn't Bee see Naruto's soul when Edo Nagato tried to rip it out?

If he did then something changed because in nagato's attack on the leaf people wondered what was going on when nagato used that jutsu on a person. Also it could be because Bee and Naruto are so closely linked. This is all assuming that he saw it which I dont recal can you try and find that chapter?

No. Tobi's body goes in the other dimension, so minato has no chance of restricting him long enough to pull his soul out.

Once the reaper grabs hold of a sould i believe the target is immobalized i dont think you need to hold them also minato's RDS is really fast and pulls/cuts the sould in a matter of seconds i think people get the wrong idea because of hiruzen's RDS.

the kyuubi is another example. They had to restrict it's movements so it can be successful. It happened with orochimaru, the kages, and the kyuubi, that's all of them.

The kyubi I would argue is a totally different example because of its nature its chakra/soul is so much more increadible than a normal human such as tobi. The kyubii is the only time we see minato use RDS (obviously) but he does it with increadible speed which is impressive because of its tremendous power so it seems like on a lesser soul that RDS from minato would be nearly instant so the moment obito materialised to attack all minato would need to do is touch him which for minato isnt that hard.

unfortunately its a tech thats hard to analyze because it can only be used once and the only times it has been used are on a bijuu and when it was used by a hokage waaay past his prime.

You're not thinking. Tobi would just continue to dodge the hand of the reaper death seal, which is why he has to be immobilized for it to work on him. But again it's almost impossible with tobi's kamui

He tells Naruto to pull on the soul just like how he pulled the Kyuubi's chakra out.

So I still think that RDS can't hit him while he's intangible.

all minato needs to do is wait for tobi to come out of kamui and grab him momentarily if there was any delat the hand would catch tobi and he would be imobalized.
But wait wait wait how can tobi dodge it the reaper cant be seen untill it crabs your soul

That wasnt his sould nagato was sucking out his chakra like ninjutsu so thats why Bee could see it but i think the arm could get him in the kamui dimension but this other guy makes a good point without being restrained tobi could dodge the arm

Kamui is instant bro, by the time minato grabs him and tries to pull his soul out tobi would be long gone. As for your question, tobi is the outter path who governs life and DEATH he can see the reaper. He should be able to see it with sharingan as well because it's manifested chakra.
