I figured it out

[Nidaime Pupil]

Yes I feel like this topic warrants its own thread.

Why is Izuna not in the Edo Tensei?
Kabuto had access to Madara's body to get some of his DNA not to mention several other obscure ninjas, I mean the third Raikage come on. It would make sense he'd be able to collect some of Izuna's DNA to bring him it would also make sense because he was regarded as "Madara's equal". And MAdara was Kabuto's trump card.


Answer and Potential SPOILER: Izuna is Tobi.

Flame on

I disagree.
That's the nicest I can be, sorry.

I searched, and all other Tobi=Izuna theories aside (I'm not here to argue what has already been argued 2000000 times.) I'm simply introducing a new piece of information.

Fair enough can you at least answer the question?

Why is Izuna not in the Edo Tensei?

 

[adiamaan]

Ya i 2 thought that...But as told by Tobi Madara took izuna's eye but being izuna he might have lied.... but have u not realised that when sasuku saw tobi's sharingan first amaterasu as planned by itachi was activated which means it must be izuna with Madara's eye...

Why is Izuna not in the Edo Tensei?

because he died without his eyes, as shown he was put into his coffin missing his eyes, and edo tensei get revived in the same state they died in
also izuna used to be madara's equal before he gave his eyes to his brother, after that madara got EMS and after that he activated rinnegan.

cause if it was really like tobi said then izuna let his eyes have taken by madara and didnt died from it which would mean if kabuto summon inzuna he would summon a blind uchiha without sharringan , very frightening... or since izuna died some time before madara his body could already have been this rotten that kabuto wouldnt be able to impure worldresurekt him.. how about that?

 

[Nidaime Pupil]

if kabuto summon inzuna he would summon a blind uchiha without sharringan , very frightening...

This makes sense I'm sure he thought why summon a useless Uchiha, makes sense.

This information is in no way, shape or form new.


Izuna could be Tobi, but there are many other possibilities too.
Just because it can't be disproved due to lack of information doesn't mean it's right.

This also makes sense. Looks like I figured nothing out. The point is Kishimoto is ****ing with everyone and enjoying it I'm sure.

It was rigged to go off at the sight of Tobi's eye as far as I understand which Itachi thought was Madara. I'm starting to think there still may be a lot of validity to Tobi still being Madara.

dats nt true itachi has his eyes does that mean sasuke didnt implant them

 

[Honest Criminal]

Izuna wasn't revived because he lost his eyes BEFORE he died. And the Edo Tensei revives you back in the same state before you died. ^_^

 

[kisamexRocks]

Who cares, Izuna was good then he lost his eyes and would be useless in battle unless he was a sensor type daredevil ninja. Why is the 1st Mizukage or the 2nd Mizukage, or 2nd Raikage not revived? Why like some lame ass Magnet guy from the cloud revived? Just to fill some spots, I want to know what powers the previous Kages of each country had. 3rd Raikage was insane, could beat Madara. Tobi is Madara.

Maybe.. Just Maybe... He couldn't locate the DNA/Body required to bring it back? And the point earlier made about being revived in the state he died leaving him with ZERO eyesight could have something to do with it:shrug:

 

[lightning f57]

Tobi can be Izuna for these reasons

• he does not have his original eyes, you can tell with his countless sharingan collection
• he reffered to pains rennigan as his which is correct as madara took his eyes to gain the EMS to then awake the rennigan.
• izuna was as powerful as madara, they both woke MS around same time, this helps explain his advance spacetime jutsu.
• Tobi seems to possess deep knowledge going quite far back over lapping story of 1st and madara battle, he also seems wrinkly and quite old

 

[Klaus]

Hmmm who knows.

 

[Rexoniel]

Maybe Kabuto or Kishimoto just decided Izuna would be a distraction. Its enough that Madara is on the field. I'm not particularly fond of the Uchihas so I'd find it annoying to have the both of them around while we already have Itachi and Sasuke as well and possibly Tobi depending if he is in fact an Uchiha. It'd just take away from Madara's spotlight in my opinion if he had to sacrifice screen time for Izuna if Izuna wasn't Tobi. Izuna is to Madara what Obito is to Kakashi. BG filler to explain their sharingans.

 

[Altair2309]

also izuna used to be madara's equal before he gave his eyes to his brother, after that madara got EMS and after that he activated rinnegan.

All edo tensei bodies has one rinnegan and one sharingan right?, so if izuna was revived he would have the same.

 

[Sasuke2]

Yeah, I'm sure Tobi is Izuna all along

 

[narutodarkfox]

that's awesome

 

[kibaclaw]

If it is izuna then he was resurrected by madara with the outer path after madara unlocked the rinnegan.
