How did kakashi get a mangekyou?

[Jokule67]

hey, what if thats what it sez on the stone tablet, but that was the only way theyd found out so far? what if the elder son did that?

yea tobi must have only told itachi one way in order 2 get inside his head. get him used2 killing his own, rest of the ways may be on tht tablet.

he used it when he faced Itachi in Gara rescue arc and itachi was surprised and said " you couldn't have.." or something similar..

Kakashi saw it the first time when itachi used it against him in KOnoha.. that's why I said he copied it- I know it's a speculation and rest of what I said were jokes but I was half serious..

give me the link of that episode please

no, the key point here is that he did copy it. he jus used his past emotions to use it. like i sed, he is always late coz he visits the epitaph all the time. he has very fresh emotions about the ppl he has lost, but he wouldnt have been able to awaken it unless he'd seen it first to copy, since its a bloodline technique of the uchiha.

He did not/cant copy a Ms
The sharingan is a kekkei genkai So the sharingan and its abilities can not be copied not even by another sharingan

I said I was still speculating. And I don't remember the anime episode. It has been a while since I last saw one.

Don't be literal. Tobitaka explained the reasoning about how he could have copied it.. it wasn't like copy, copy but more like learning the possiblities and abilities and acheiving them through training afterwards. kakshi had seen enough deaths and he has enough emotional trauma in his bag.

At this stage this is the best how we can explain it.. or we can wait for Kishi to give details if ever.. just IMO.

I actually have a theory on this, You see he fealt like he couldn't protect his sensei, his best friend, Rin, his father, and many others Im sure. So finally after Sasuke left the village he probably just snapped, now his prized student had fallen to evil s well, and he cared about team 7 more than anyone else when it happened. This probably put him through a sadness and all of the nonprotection made him feel totally worthless. This is the feeling that I believed awakened his mangekyo.

Hah, I was about to post a thread on this - good thing I used the search function xD

If emotional trauma is sufficient for Mangekyou Sharingan, then why didn't Sasuke have it prior to killing Itachi? Seeing members of his clan (including his parents) slaughtered, and working with Orochimaru should have been emotional trauma enough. Granted Orochimaru will have helped kill his emotions eventually, but still.

The comment about Kakashi copying the Mangekyou Sharingan can't be right - the Sharingan's forms are all Kekkei Genkai, which can't be copied anyway xD
