Nagato did NOT die from just using Rinne Tensei.

Well look at the amount of people that Nagato brought back to life. That, coupled with the already low chakra levels he had at the time makes me see no reason why he wouldn't die. I think it would bare no risk to their lives if someone was to revive only one person using the Rinne Tensei whilst they had a reasonable amount of chakra left. Only thing contradicting this theory is Obito's recent claim "you want me to throw away my life using the Rinne Tensei". However, let's not forget that in situations like that it's Obito himself stating what he believes the effects of Rinne Tensei are (due to past experience of Nagato's usage) and not Kishi stating a fact about the jutsu. It's easy to mix the two up.

I agree with you, I think if it does kill Obito. It is due to a possibility of few things. 1. He has been fighting non-stop for how many chapters now lol? I am sure he has about exhausted all his chakra aswell. 2. He has only 1 rinnegan. 3. The extent of time that has lapses since the person died.

it might be time related like nagato had enough chakra to revive konoha but not far enough back for jiraiya
maybe obito has to use all his chakra to revive madara who died a while back

Maybe he just knows at his current level of chakra, think about how long he has been fighting straight without rest. To use Rinne Tensei will cost him the remainder of his chakra. Or because he only has one eye?

I hate the idea that insufficient chakra = death from Rinne Tensei, but it can't be refuted so I will agree.

Having one eye could be the harm too; but I'm leaning more on the chakra idea.

Well Obito basically said that in order to revive Madara with the Rinne tensei he would have to give his own life. You can argue he just said that because he's been fighting and is drained of chakra, but I'm not sure of that's actually the case.

When Nagato was about to use it Konan did say that if he used it at his current chakra level he would die, so it seems unclear at this point.

It could very well be. I just don't think the use of Rinne Tensei alone will kill you. There are stipulations that surround the current use of it.

So we have a manga contradiction currently. Im sure Kishimoto will be more clear on this in the upcoming future.

it has to cost you your life.

Or something to that effect.

It has too? Seriously that's your argument? Please do think of something more rational than, "it has to".

Thanks for atleast finding it rash to agree with me until manga gives us a clear answer to this contradiction.

Well, bro show me manga proof that states clearly that you die from the use of Rinne Tensei, cause for Nagato his death was caused by low chakra. For Obito his "sacrifice" may be caused by something else. But until I see it say that the death is caused because Rinne Tensei itself kills the user, I will stick to the current given fact which is Konan stating that Nagato will die if he uses it with that little chakra.

Maybe time lapsed since death does effect it in some form, but that has yet to be shown.

I agree... It is mere speculation. Nagato mentioned how he only had the chakra for those recently deceased...it mostly describes his chakra level at the time as well as help the whole dramatic spot of how he is going to die to atone for his actions....but could also be derived to hint that he doesn't have the chakra to currently bring back Nagato.

I don't understand why you value more Konan's info on the technique than Obito's and Madara's.

Have you thought of the possibility that Nagato told Konan that the technique did not kill, as long as you had chakra, in order so that she would accept him reviving Madara? Otherwise Nagato would have brought back Yahiko no?

Also the chakra depletion is not a valid argument for Obito right now.

Obito is connected to the largest pool of chakra conceivable in Narutoverse. Chakra depletion must not be in his list of threats and troubles.

Wouldn't surprise me if Nagato's longevity and life force was what allowed him to use the Jutsu without throwing away his life.

Nagato could only revive the recently deceased, while Obito could revive someone who died a long time ago being ancient. It seems that Obito doesn't only want to revive the long dead Madara but let him being revived in a young state, maybe by giving him even his own body.
