Actually, notice how even though Obito had fire techs and Mokuton, the only technique he used throughout the entire fight was Kamui. Remember, he was still struggling with his new world view, and he probably couldn't have handled being the one to kill Minato.

I actually think that Obito pulled off the Kyuubi Attack -Which made his plans harder, actually, and which wasn't ordered by Madara- because on some level he was hoping Minato could stop him.
I believe the same thing, especially since he was berating Minato for not recognizing him/stopping him, going so far as to blame him for Kushina's death. I think the whole "I don't care anymore" thing was not only affirmation to himself, but also affirmation to Minato, along the lines of "You didn't care enough to save me, you didn't care enough to save Rin, and you don't care enough to even recognize me, fine, I don't care about you or anyone else" sort of thing, especially since, up until his redemption, that's the first time he seems to feel a tinge of remorse for what he's doing.

In the images he seems almost regretful. Also, notice, he rarely calls him simply "Minato" even as Tobi (I refer to evil Obito as Tobi) he still called him sensei, seemingly out of respect. I honestly see some massive parallels between him and Anakin, and Kakashi and Minato to Obi-Wan.

You are completely wrong. Nothing is canon unless it happens in the manga and I shouldn't have to the you that Kishi doesn't assist with the games. Just drawing the manga takes up most of his week, and he has a family after that.
Sorry bro, Battle of Gods is as canon as the manga...

Thats what I thought.
Yep, and whether the "Far reaches of Hope" was written with help from Kishi or not which I doubt he did, I think its fair to certainly assume that Kushina cared or favored for Obito, they had such similiar personalities from their youth but I understand where your coming from on terms of it being canon, and I respect your resolve.

I'd like to think it is, given Minato's interactions with Obito, and the times Obito mentioned Kushina, I'd say it's fair to assume they likely knew each other fairly well.

Thanks. I highly doubt Kishi had anything to do with it, but I wouldn't be surprised if Kushina was fond of Obito. Love is just going to far imo

Maybe, maybe not, depends on how you see things, I'm quite certain Obito viewed Minato the same way Naruto viewed Iruka, and likely loved him as if he were a father, and, being as he seems to blame Minato for Kushina dying, I think it's reasonable to assume he likely cared for her as well.

He killed her without hesitation.

Did he? As the other poster said, it's heavily implied that he wanted Minato to stop him, even so, at that point he'd already convinced himself that he could somehow revive everyone he killed, he likely thought he'd just bring Minato and Kushina back.

Nope. Killed both of them without hesitation. He just wanted to see them or actually Minato Kakashi and Rin in IT. He didn't care about their actual lives.

Except he refuses to let go of his memory of them either, even so, the whole "I don't care anymore" scan showed he was, at the very least, reflective about it. And, as I said, he felt that the IT could revive people.

Yeah he felt it could revive them in his dreams. As he said himself he didn't care.

Obi-Wan saw Anikin as a brother, he told him he was like his brother when they fought. No Minato didn't see him anything more as a student; a teacher usually view like 1 student as a brother or son but not all had this. Ex: Jiraiya voiced that he thought of Minato like a son, Gai treats Lee as a son and Lee even copied Gai's look, Hiruzen favored Orochimaru when he was younger, Tsunade probably view Shizune and Sakura as young sisters.

Minato seems to have spent more time with Kakashi so I see Kakashi more like Minato's younger brother than Obito. Minato even taught him Rasengan but Kakashi couldn't add lightning to it so made Chidori. Kakashi also was Minato's 2nd hand man as leader if the Anbu when Minato became Hokage and trusted him with the task of watching out for Kushina for months. Obito still respected Minato as a good man and teacher and Minato treasured all of his students.
