The anime put things into perspective. But Kishi did a pretty bad job a presenting Obito's resolve with the excessive Rin flashbacks.
I'll admit, Obito's resolve was instigated by Rin's death. But the question is why?
Obito was an orpahan who was lonely like Naruto.
He was probably bullied for being weak.
As a result, he hated the world and was probably on the verge of commiting suicide.
But he was saved. He found Rin and therefore finally found a friend who cared.
He also met Kakashi and Minato but Rin was the only person in his life that truly showed any concern for him.
Since he has doesn't have much else in life, he tired his best at being a good ninja but constantly fails.
He was taunted by Kakashi and nonchlantly overlooked by Minato. Rin cared, but as a man, his pride took a huge blow from being weak and recieving pity from the only person he considered a friend and potential romanic partner.
He finally became good friends with Kakashi but..
He got half crushed a bolder and most like can never reproduce and is constantly in excutiating pain. But he just shoves all this into the back of this mind, as if he was denying what happened by using his friends as a distraction.
Just look at the anime. He was so weak after being crushed, he could barely even walk. It's just so sad, but he refuses to accept reality and shoves all of this negativity into his subconcious.
But...
when he saw Kakashi stab Rin he lost trust in this world.
That because he lost everything he had. It makes sense.
Also keep in mind, he was just a kid when he faced all this. He was not ready at all to cope.
