Obito's MS has not caused him blindness?

[Jusanbi]

This is merely but a short and sweet thought out of curiosity. I had originally skimmed and searched for any other threads about this idea and have found none thus far. Therefore, I shall begin.

As we know it has been known and said that if an Uchiha has utilized their Mangekyou abilities in excess amounts, they not only subject themselves to inevitable blindness, but hasten the process in overusing their eyes as had been shown with Sasuke abusing all of his MS abilities within a short time period.

However, upon viewing Obito, and[while being a moot point] Kakashi as well, there appears to be not a single hint of reference to the famed blindness that is caused by the overuse of the Mangekyou Sharingan. This of course has caught my attention as baffling, as we all know Obito's signature move is Kamui and he is able to use in versatile to suit his needs. He tends to use his Kamui above all other abilities and yet has not attributed any form of blindness within his eye(s). Why is that? If he has yet to obtain the eternal Mangekyou, as well as the consideration of the factor that he relies somewhat heavily upon Kamui, and is age even accounts as a factor, having obtained Kamui at the time of Rin's death around the age of 15+. Why is it then, that he appears to be such an exception out of all of the Uchiha? Could this possibly be due to his body being constructed of Hashirama's cells by nearly half? Allow me to know your thoughts, and please spare me the infatuation comments and offer sensible and noteworthy thoughts.

Thank you,

I shall now return to fathoms beyond reality and the universes, consuming all around.

It is indeed hashirama cells

Obito uses visine and eats a lot of carrots........no blindness

 

[Moss]

We haven't seen Obito use Tsukonomi or Amaterasu, or Susano'o, and he did go blind in one eye when he used Izanagi, but Nagato's Rinnegan solved that

 

[Avery Uchiha]

That's a good question, it could possibly be a special ability of his eyes seeing as Kakashi hasn't suffered any sort of blindness either after using it quite frequently.

 

[GwemBaba]

Yes, it is.

 

[The Necromancer]

Obito's sight can be well enough explained by him having Senju DNA. (I won't like the answer, but i can accept that.) However, kakashi's lack of blindness is nothing less than a plot hole. People saying "he's not an uchiha so he can't go blind" are being ignorant. Why wouldn't it affect him just because he's not an uchiha? Kakashi is just a plot hole to me.

Indeed I have mentioned and thought of Kakashi as well, though I as it says within brackets I considered him only a moot point.

It is more probable and logical that he would become blind far more quickly than an uchiha.

 

[RikudoKami]

Obito is the 4th Sage of the Six Paths, he won't go blind because he has Uchiha and Senju Dna.

 

[Thundercles]

This has been discussed before. Anyway, its more than likely Hashirama's DNA.

 

[Jusanbi]

It is indeed hashirama cells

*chuckles* While it indeed would appear as a viable answer, I am afraid I would be more than dissatisfied with that as it appears to be the answer to too many inquiries already and only comes to lessen the complexity and complicated web of the series I enjoy within a story, though I am fine with it being the answer, but wish it to be that it only prolongs his usage of the Mangekyou before becoming blind. I would be more intrigued and content I suppose if it were to due to another reason.

I had found nothing related in the search results, however that is fine.

Or maybe Kamui has the property that it doesn't make the user blind?

 

[FlemSmack]

He might have EMS. He did study under Madara after all. More illogical things have happened.

 

[Nakamazi Itchigo]

The reason is Hashirama's cells, definitely

 

[Hyugaaa]

It is indeed hashirama cells

^^ either this, or due to the fact that he doesn't have the susanoo or amaterasu ability, which that can be because of him only having one of his sharingans.

 

[Saiyansnake]

I think that using an enormous amount of chakra to the point of eye bleeding is what causes the blindness. Having half a body of Hashi cells eliminate this problem.

What about Kakashi, though?

His eyes would look different from Kakashi's if that was the case.

What about Kakashi, though?

His eye is transplanted so different rules apply in his case.
