Limbo theory compilation thread

[SkyGodHorus]

I've decided to make a thread depicting mine and other's overall theories on how Limbo was made and what it represents. I'll leave a poll for the fandom to decide the most legitimate one.

1. In my original Limbo thread, I theorized it was created via a combination of Madara and Izuna's MS techniques either naturally through the Rinngan's manifestation or manually via Madara's use of the Yin-Yang release. I believed his techs were Amaterasu and Tsukuyomi. I supported this by Tobirama stating he had seen Kagutsuchi before Sasuke used it, as well as Amaterasu and Tsukuyomi paralleling Yin and Yang, in that Itachi described one as being the personification of the spirit world and light and the other the material world and darkness. Limbo's properties paralleled this in that Madara described it as being a shadow in a spirit world no one without the six paths power could see or touch, yet it could still make contact with everything.

2. An alternate theory of mine is that it represents Madara's dream of a false eternal peace in that in Dante's Inferno, Limbo is the circle of hell that represents a false heaven.

3. A third theory I came up with is that it is a technique created via the combination of the Preta and Naraka path techniques. Preta is the hungry ghosts realm and Naraka is the Hells realm. As I stated earlier, Limbo is the circle of hell representing a false heaven.

4. Finally, popular theory of late is that it represents the spirits of Madara's five brothers.

Which do you think sounds the most plausible? Or is it possible it is something else or more than one of these?

Wonder why Obito didn't get one

The Manga is over dude, so Limbo is nothing but what was told about it.

My theory is, Limbo is a secret about Madara body as stated by Tablet by Madara to Hashirama.

Thats mean, Madara power menifest it by becoming a rinnegan user only, this tech is hidden tech of Madara. Like inner Sakura that just an emotion, Limbo is a real thing, its actually a Madara clones that coming or menifested in secret or hidden way by Madara body same like visible wood clone and shadow clone

It nothing connected to his brothers or preta path or emotion etc, its is actually a spirit clone in nature created by High level sanjutsu same as Rikudou senjutsu

But in NV, the highest senjutsu that known by us is Rikudou Senjutsu only, thats why Madara said only Rikudou Senjutsu wielder the only one that can see or sense this hidden clone

I dont know how BZ or Hago know about Madara body and wrote it in tablet, its like a plot hole, if Hago having limbo also, whay the tablet dont wrote about secret of Hago body but it wrote secret about Madara body instead.

Probably because like Nagato, he couldn't use or at least handle its full power being that they weren't his eyes.

Sorry, no "other" option. XD This is a theory thread and a forum for discussion. If you have nothing to contribute to it, then there is no purpose in you posting in it.

Black Zetsu stated he altered the Tablet and Madara possessed the Rinnegan, so he may have etched info about himself into it as well. Decent theory by the way.

I chose the second one ..... I like religions parallel

 

[Zealotic]

Limbo Hengoku is definitely a rinnegan technique. We can kinda guess its only for uchiha which is why nagato never used it. Idk about all that representation stuff but Limbo(rinbo) means wheel grave which could signify the invisible shadows.
Hengoku means border jail which can represent why limbos range is very short and returns to the user after a while

1 and 4 sound the best.

 

[Garfield01]

Pls dont theorize about a god.

Just #BeliveIt


10/10 thread anyways

i honestly dunno....somehow I see the no. of madara ( 5 limbos+ himself ) as a parallel to the idea of 'six paths' , but I won't bother to build any theories.

I think the best one would explain the no. of limbo clones madara can produce

I thought of that as well when Limbo was first introduced. Can't believe I didn't add it in. Yes, perhaps it was the true form of the avatarization Nagato used.
