By order of Masashi Kishimoto, Kabuto cannot die in these coming chapters. Now, can he actually die? Of course. But it will not be happening. Why?

It is established that Kabuto will meet his brother again and go back to the orphanage.
And it is reiterated in the most recent chapter.

Kishi wouldn't set something like that up to just throw it away. Kabuto will absolutely see the end of the war and cannot die until he reunites with his brother and returns to the orphanage.

Something else that's thought provoking, what does this mean for Obito? After all, Obito and Kabuto do parallel each other, so is it possible that Obito will stay alive somehow?

Dr Tobirama and his expert assistant; Nurse Kabuto, will find a way to save Obito's life.

So your saying Kishi has already made up his mind and Kabuto is not going to die in this war.???

Naruto can't die either, what makes Kabuto so special...

Kabuto may stay alive after the war, but obito I don't think so. He will likely die by weakning madara somehow. So the good guys can finish him off

That's good news, kabuto is becoming one of my favourite characters so he should leave a bit longer.

Because it's blatantly obvious Naruto won't be dying. It's easy to imagine Kabuto being dead at the end of the series.

That's sort of what I'm thinking. I'd be satisfied if he died after his current business with Naruto. He'd repay his debt to the world, in a way. Plus, he could keep his very dangerous eye locked away in the Kamui dimension.

Well I think it's to late for him to die now espically since he just came out of the loop. He'll meet his brother and be a Leaf ninja

It's actually for this reason that I do believe Kabuto will die at some point. I see that Kabuto coming so close to where he was meant to be and abruptly taking it from him by killing him. That literary plot twist type of stuff, you know?

Kishi established that Kabuto WANTS to go home. Characters don't always get what they want. Kishi stressed what Kabuto wants twice for mere moments, Obito and Madara's desire for Tsuki no Me has been stressed exponentially higher, but there's no guarantee that will happen, it's actually very unlikely plot-wise, so what you makes you think Kabuto's dream that was hinted for for two mere moments will be accomplished?

Shit, Yahiko and Konan both wanted to support the bridge to peace, and that was stressed a lot while they appeared, yet they both died without getting what they wanted. Kabuto could be in the same boat.

Yeah, I see where you're coming from, but that sort of dark plot twist with such a permanent ending for such an important character is not Kishi's style. Especially for someone who just found themselves. Who is redeeming themselves.

See above. For a character who is redeeming themselves and has a shot at a new life, to simply shoot that down for no reason, isn't Kishi's style. It would be darkness, to a brief glimmer of light, then totally consumed by darkness again. Not what Kishi does, especially so late in the manga.
However, that was a solid point about Konan. While I am personally certain that Kabuto won't die, I do not shut off the possibility entirely.

That's what I was thinking, but HS convinced me otherwise

The only way I can see the shinobi alliance allowing kabuto and obito to liveand let bygones be bygones is if everyone they killed is rinne tenseid. Otherwise they kinda deserve to die they slaughtered too many people.

What I don't understand is that Kabuto is in the bingo book so his bro should have known that Kabuto was a bad guy due to him being in the bingo book.:|
