Re: Tobi (Official Breakdown):All Tobi theories go here:-
All right I have a lot I want to get off my chest so I am just gonna dive right in…
First of all… I think were gonna find out the big mystery in a couple of chapters, but I want to get some ideas out before we do
There are so many theories and suspects out there, some better than others, but I think it’s safe to say we can boil it down to a few
Izuna- this has probably become the most popular theory and there are a lot of reasons why
1. He definitely has motive- feeling betrayed for turning on him and his brother he wants to get back at the Leaf village, got it. He also would be old enough to have the extensive knowledge Tobi seems to have (not that you have to be old to know stuff, but it seems like the older you are the more you know). One thing people seem to point too, when they don’t think its Izuna, is that hes dead…and that maybe true. But, if hes dead, I feel like Kabuto would have revived him with IWR?! Being the second person to unlock MS, hes probably strong enough for Kabuto to try to get at him. Not only that but, Kabuto mentions he couldn’t get Shisui and Jiraya’s DNA and didn’t mention he couldn’t get Izunas? If he couldn’t find Izuna’s body I feel like he would have mentioned that, unless he knew Izuna was alive, but who knows, expect Kishi…and everyones hes told. And of course, there are other reasons why people think its Izuna..same ideals as Madara, the interchanging eyes he seems to go through (Izuna has none so this would make sense) etc
So Izuna seems perfectly probable, but Im gonna move on and tell you why I wont even entertain the idea of Obito, sorry I respect everyone’s opinion, but that one is dumb… maybe hell be brought up in later chapters, but hes definitely NOT TOBI!
Look Tobi has to be some one of age, he HASSSS too. The reason I go to this is because the Kyubbi knows who he is. When Tobi attacks the village and takes control of the fox the fox says “You!”. So he knows, him. And for many years before that, Narutos mom had the fox inside of her, so its not like he could have met Tobi during that time period. He must have met Tobi even before he was locked in Mito, otherwise how could they meet. Kyuubi-MitoNaruto’s mom naruto…had to be before he was locked in Mito, theres no other time he was free and going around meeting people, socializing. I also find it interesting that Tobi could summon the fox, if you look at the chapters where he attacks the village, he summons him to the village from where ever he had him… only other person Ive seen with this ability is Madara… interesting.
2. Tobi is Shisui
This theory definitely has merit… and ive heard some super interesting points on why. However, Im gonna have to try to squash this theory here… With Shisui, there is a Timeline error. And I am going to try to not use the “age” argument against shisui that everone seems to love so much because they think hes too youngto be tobi, because honestly, it’s a dumb argument for anything in the Narutoverse, you never know what peoples abilities are. But here goes, If shisui is Tobi then he attacked the village 16 years prior to where we are now, before his eyes were taken, using the same abilities he has with his current eyes. Then about 10 or so years later, got his eye taken by Danzo, before the Uchiha massacre and I feel like tobi, who is pretty strong, wouldn’t let his eye be taken by Danzo. Then, to what I can only assume is also before the massacre, gives Itachi his other eye and tells Itachi to help him disappear. THENN approaches Itachi (with a mask, even though Itachi knows what he looks like?) and asks to assist Itachi in the massacre, with no eyes at this point? And Itachi even mentions to Sasuke that who he thinks is “Madara” helped him kill his clan, not shisui. Sounds pretty shaky, but you never know, I cant say I have any HARD evidence to say Tobi isn’t shisui, but it seems unreasonable. I will say this though, Kabuto finds it important enough to mention that he couldn’t find Shisui’s body, something I think foreshadowed Shisui having some impact later, what impact?... I don’t know.
3. Tobi is some one from the future?...or something
I don’t see why he cant be…but this is lame, I seriously hope its not this.
4. Tobi is the Juubi, in some human form. This, IMO, is also pretty lame. I get that it might be… And the Kyuubi definitely would know him and he fits a bunch of the criteria.
First, tobi doesn’t seem to have a body, as evidenced by him just ripping off his arm and then him getting hit by Minato’s rasengan and then the goo that comes after.
Second, yeah the motives there, and the extensive knowledge seems to be as well.
Third, lets assume Kisame and Itachi know what Madara looks like, if the Juubi is Tobi, it wouldn’t be out of the realm of possibility to make his face look like madara and that is why he was able to fool them into thinking he is madara, all though that’s a stretch
Fourth the “im not complete” line fits him as well as anyone.
But, why would Juubi pretend to be Madara? Why would he need to decipher tablets (I assume he would know a lot of that stuff) And why would he hate the leaf village, specifically, like he does? Also Kabuto seems to know who Tobi is, I feel like hed be more respectful towards an unstoppable monster.
But, ill end this for now…If you were able to get through, id like to hear what you think
