It's time to face the facts guys

Obito was afraid of Itachi and here is why

Everything below is manga facts: Disregard them all you want but the truth is there


Obito before finding redemption has always been the non trust worthy, manipulative, cold hearted guy since RIN death. As a matter of fact if Obito felt you were a threat he would eliminate you. However, the only person he never eliminated was Itachi because due to Obito's belief that Itachi would kill him if he knew his secret. Obito feared him and kept his distance.

Point 1:

Obito openly attacked Minato knowing what his teacher was capable of. This is the point i'm making. Obito will attack and kill any one who he feels is a threat to his plan he lacks any respect for any one. Why would he not kill Itachi who was the biggest threat to his plan even as an adult? Answer: He equally feared and respected him.

Point 2:

Obito left Konoha alone until AFTER Itachi died

When has Obito EVER kept his part of a bargain?

Deals he broke:

Reviving Madara
Making Madara the Jin
Helping Danzo
Helping Nagato
Using his Akatsuki as sacrifices

However, there was one man he did not cross and that was Itachi.

Point 3:

Obito has said on 2 Occasions that he is really relieved that Itachi was gone.

Convo with Zetsu: "Itachi is dead I can breathe easier" or "Itachi is dead he is no longer a thorn in my side"

Convo with Sasuke: "If Itachi had known my secret I would be dead"


Conclusion:

With all this evidence AND being backed by manga references and character situations from different characters. It's safe to say that Obito feared Itachi

Thoughts?

Yeah I agree with you, Obito feared or had respect for Itachi and his potential created unease for Obito. His ability to see through people's weaknesses and exploit them perfectly makes Itachi a ninja to reckon with.

Even in the road to ninja (Naruto Movie 6)… Obito met Itachi in the dream world when Itachi was about to rescue Sakura and Obito made a run for it and said to Itachi that he is always a troublesome fellow.

But that's a panel of when Itachi was lying to Sasuke and giving him a reason for the fight...which wasn't true at all. :/

ot: It was more like he was just cautious. He stayed away from Itachi and hid his abilities, but I don't think he knew what Itachi was capable of either, considering that after Itachi died, he asked Zetsu to show him a recording of the fight he had with Sasuke.

Note: Your sig made me laugh, so I just gave you a thanks for this thread as a result. But it wasn't really fear.

Make more hiruzen neutalizer thread not itachi threads

-your first point is invalid because obito intact did NOT know what Minato was capable of, he didn't know that his mark never disappears and neither did he knew about hiraishin stage two or stage three which wasn't even used

-second point is also invalid because the kyuubi was to be sealed last, after all the other bijuus have been captured, if he told itachi he isn't attacking konoha for his sake then itachi got played for a sucker as obito cares only for the eye of the moon plan

-itachi was an eyesore, obito in fact knew everything about itachi's plan and he let him do it to ultimately manipulate sasuke into coming to his side

I agree that Itachi was powerful and without a doubt, a character to be feared but please don't hype him. We have no solid proof that Obito ever feared Itachi and please provide links to those quotes. To point 1: the reason Obito attacked the 4th was not because he was cold hearted or out of random cruelty. He did it to avenge Rin and to regain control over Kurama. To point 2: that is because Obito's objective was to capture the Jinchuriki- he had no need for the Leaf at that time. And even then, he still interfered with the Leaf via Itachi and Kisame to capture the Kyubi. And to point 3: I honestly can't remember either of those quotes. Itachi is my favorite character but I'm just stating facts.
