Madara also said it was a miracle he survived, and Obito didn't escape getting crushed, his entire right side is fukking gone from the nose down! Wtf?That doesn't answer my question. You can't brush it off as some sort of miracle.
No, the Sharingan doesn't work that way. Tobito's S/T thing only works when he has MS activated. There is NO f*cking way in hell a 2 tomoe Sharingan could've allowed him to use those same powers. End of. Stop pretending Kishimoto is infallible. It's a huge, glaring plothole. Period.
Madara even said about Obito's survival, and I quote: "I don't know how that rock didn't crush you. It's almost as if you were able to slip away from it..." (chapter 602, page 5)
If that's not a bullshit plothole, then I don't know what is.
Do you honestly believe Kishimoto would contradict himself on something as obvious as that?
