Edo tensei is ninjustu and SM enhances the user's ninjustu, genjustu and Taijustu.

What can be enhanced about it? It's just a jutsu that brings people back and they use their origional powers. It's either it works or it doesnt

Yes it would. Just adding Orochimaru's chakra increased Kabuto's bind on the Edo minds.

So then why didnt the edos grow any stronger once Kabuto entered DSM?

Makes sense to me, but I'm not sure there's much more to enhance even if Sage Mode did.

I mean, Kabuto was already able to mess with specific ET's (see: Madara Uchiha) to make them even more powerful than when they were alive, so I don't think Kabuto'd really have a need to do more.

It would make each edo stronger.

The same reason why Gamabunta wasn't enhanced by Naruto's SM. It's a summoning technique.​

I agree with the above poster, how do you increase a summoning technique? It's function is to summon.

Lord HolyEyes has solo'd once again.

Hashirama's cells make Edo Tensei stronger though :)

HolyEyes just ended it. SM only works in a user internal body. The Edos themselves has to have the ability to use SM.
