hey guys, on my walk to work i was kind of thinking of somerhing... a question that i guess all of you had... atleast once?

my question was: why didn't something happen at the beginning when Madara applied Hashirama DNA into his body?
is Senju DNA really the solution?...

i believe that Senju DNA might be one of the head ingredients, but i kind of think that there is something else that must be added to the mix...

Sharingan...
Mangekyo Sharingan...
Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan...

all these 3 evolve after certain feelings... hatred... loss... sadness... you know this already right?

Madara didn't get Rinnegan as soon as he applied the Senju DNA, he didn't achieve it until near death...

perhaps this is the reason for unlocking the Rinnegan...

To finally forgive yourself, to accept yourself for who you are and get rid of all that hatred towards other people... to accept what has happened and that your brothers will never come back... to finally get that feeling that no matter what you do now, there's nothing else that can be done, you're finished... finally... you've done all you can and it's finally time to say goodbye?

you see, Madara had already got Rinnegan before he met Obito for the first time... so i think that Madara had already realised that he was going to fail with his plan... his plan to not become the Hokage of The Hidden Leaf... but to become the leader of the whole world instead... it was all a fail and Madara had finally accepted that. therefore unlocking the rinnegan... when Madara unlocked the rinnegan he gained a tiny bit of new hope, implanting the rinnegan in someone elses body... (and let Zetzu make Obitos work... and let's face it.. that wouldnt've been possible because i don't think that Nagato would've Negotiate without a fight)

not until finding Obito did Madara regain the true hope for his dreams to come true, because finally did he find someone trustworthy and someone that could actually help him with his plans... of course did Madara already have a tiny tiny bit of plans but Obito was the key to everything...

i'll leave it like this for the moment... because what happens after this... all of you should already know if you're reading the Manga, tell me what you guys think! and like always, have a nice day everyone! *_*

So basically after reading your whole thing

One cannot unlock rinnegan until they get rid of all the malice and hatred toward others and false hope?

So basically acceptance and peace is also needed to unlock the rinnegan?

Pretty good idea wow.

I suspect that when he awoke the Rinnegan, Madara went back to reread the tablet and when he did,, he found out something about the Sage that prompted him to destroy Uzushiogakure and give the Rinnegan to Nagato.

The Rinnegan is modeled after Buddhism.

At the core of Buddhism is a path to enlightenment - the search for the 'God within.'

There is a heretical concept within Buddhism - known as "Gedo." This is the seventh path - the "outer" and unnatural path. In Naruto - this path grants the wielder of the Rinnegan to form chakra chains (a link to the Uzumaki?... Kushina's power?), linked vision, and utilize the chakra control rods.

It is interesting that the Sage tells the tailed beasts that another will lead them 'down the right path' - and I can't help but wonder if that is a path without "Gedo."

Which is interesting - considering the Byakugan is modeled after Taoism, where the goal is to become 'one with nature' and to not seek to 'overpower' or circumvent nature - but walk within it. This is the concept known as "Wei Wu Wei" - or Action without Effort.

Perhaps the Rinnegan, itself, represents the Outer Path (the six paths being 'within' the eye of the wielder... their being representing the outer path and the rejection of nature) - the rejection of all that is natural. It is not a hatred of people - but a hatred of nature, itself, that spawns the Rinnegan.

Which is, perhaps, why Naruto will not receive the Rinnegan.

Nagato unlocked it when he was scared for his life. I agree with your theory but to add to it what if the feeling is the overwhelming desire to live and severe fear of death. It would connect both Madara and Nagato unlocking it considering both of their situations. Your explanation is great but doesn't explain how Nagato unlocked it when he wouldn't give up malice towards people. He hated the war and soldiers when he unlocked it. Just my thoughts.
