Tobi was meant to be Obito

[tamikasy]

When Tobi was first introduced as a new character, look at how he waves, similar to Obito right?

That's nice.

 

[Yusuke Urameshi]

Because that's significant.

 

[Saikyokami]

And your just now realizing this this is the reason many people believe him to be obito

 

[Supreme x Uchiha]

Yes because the way he waves directly affects the outcome of the series.

 

[Draw]

looking back at it, it kinda always made sense

 

[NicholasAkatsumi]

Of course he was meant to be Obito. Almost everybody who reads Naruto kinda figured it out. Even before we knew it was him, there were so many things that which we can relate to.. (From Obito & Tobi)

The only problem is that it`s wrong to see Obito as Tobi... It just is.. That`s why so many people think it is `wrong` for Tobi to be Obito...

 

[jaykuhz]

Yeah...lol

 

[Lilvic92]

That's just a small things in so many clues.
People fail to realize that everyone has different characteristics..such as Itachi keep one arm on his vipper.
my friends do little things that's unique to them.

But people dismiss stuff like that because it's no painfully obvious, but when Kishi did start to make it obvious they wanted to complain.
the hair, the one eye, his dimensional sharingan tech, they were all meant as clues but again people dismiss them and all people who saw them as hints because they were blatantly obvious.

 

[Saikyokami]

70% of the naruto fanbase knew obito was tobi after the moment obito's apperence was revealed and tobi's sharigan was revealed tobi's hair and the one eye? the other one kakashi took and that one eye visual was a sharigan yah

 

[The Alchemist]

Most of you guys are still butt hurt at the fact that you were wrong about Tobi's identity. I personally knew without a doubt the only plausible person he could be was Obito and when I made my theories known (on One Manga not here) people called me an idiot and blah blah blah, but who's the idiot now bitches, LOL!

Obito answered kakasi's question

Alot of people like me, who are enjoying the current storyline, and who think Kishi has done a good job of explaining how Obtio became Tobi, hated the revelation. This was not because we were wrong, I've gotten over that, but because of the cheap way Kishi did it.

Kishi obviously always intended for Tobi to be Obito, that's obvious now... however when he made it too obvious, he panicked, and desperately tried to find a way to keep the mystery alive. So Kishi inserted a large amount of evidence over time which seemed to make Obito being Tobi utterly impossible. This annoyed people like me, because when the reveal came, it didn't square well with the misdirection, and it felt like a cheat. Nobody likes a murder mystery when the big reveal is a cheat.

In particular, I'm talking about Kuruma apparently recognising Obito and saying "You!" during the 9 tails attack, and Obito somehow being able to take Minato at 14. The latter, while having been plausibly explained (though Obito's size is still completely off what it should be) also creates issues. How did Obito just sneak back into the village undetected? How did none of the sensors ever manage to detect his chakra over all these years (and over numerous battles) and be like "oh look, Obito is alive"? Why did Obtio have a grudge against the villages Uchiha, and help Itachi kill them all? How could Obito have been old enough to have caused the blood mist massacres over the years (the whole timeline is thrown out by this). Wasn't leaving Kakashi alive incredibly dangerous and foolish, given he had access to your dimension, and wouldn't it have been sensible to take your eye back (if you were going to the trouble of a slaughtering all the Uchiha's just to get some spare eyes, why not grab Kakashi's as well?) Just a handful of the madenning plot points made confusing by the misdirection Kishi insisted on.

it wasn't cheap at all
that's your own opinion

 

[ItachiStyle]

If you want to tell me who Kuruma thought Obtio was when he yells "You!" at him, I am all ears.

Yeah, you really showed him now! And it's not just his opinion, it's fact. So many things just don't fall into place. And if you think you got all the answers, please enlighten me.

Tobi was planned from the Chapter 16

Chapter 16, named "Who are you?" and who appears on the cover? Obito debut in the series. And guess what it was about this chapter 16? Who was the masked boy. Ironically the first appearance of the series be Obito in the chapter "Who are you" about a boy masked.

And guess how the Masked been debunked?
