"Rinnegan? What's that?

Ohhhh. Is it that thing I gave an Izanagi up over? Well, no problem, it's not like I need to use it at all. I'm just going to channel my skill from when I was 12 and use that to beat Kakashi! Look out Kakashi, here I c-"

Like, seriously. Kishi better explain this convienent moment of Obito forgetting he has Rinnegan, and then losing to Kakashi.

as far as we know: Obito never really 'used' the rinnegan before... he never used any of the paths techniques so we might assume you either need both rinnegan for it or that he's simply not able of using them for another reason..

Bypassing is a violation of NB rules.

Too bad I didn't bypass it, since it's censored.

Bypassing it would be if you could see every letter.

Also, it's not directed at anybody. I mean, it's not like they ever curse in the Manga, right? (They do, without censors)

No Mokuton or Rinnegan during his fight with Kakashi clearly is for the sake of plot not jutsu!

The main reason why he needs the Rinnegan is to control the Bijuus and Gedo Mazo. He lacks experience on it though, and possibly can't use all techniques for the fact that he only had it a few days ago in NV time.

You forgot he also didn't use Mokuton.

I have a theory. Maybe Obito can't use Kamui and Rinnegan simultaneously. He definitely has the paths.

You make it seem as though he's just supposed to automatically win because he has the Rinnegan.

cus he is, wtf, kakashi couldnt even fight pain's deva path without help from the akimiche dudes and still lost to it, he even had to play dead. and now all the paths in one person + kamui + mokuton just in front of him and he wins with a chidori

Yes. That's exactly what I'm saying.

Are you suggesting he wouldn't have won if he used the Rinnegan?

I'm just saying that just because someone has something over-powered doesn't mean they'll automatically win. I'm on your side since I think Kakashi should've died a long time ago.
