...Actually, no. Not even "What if". Why didn't Nagato offer to give Naruto his eyes? Like, he and Konan both knew that Tobi was going to come for them, right? Imagine Naruto with Rinnegan, full Kurama, and RSM (though he might not have gotten/needed the latter if he did get Nagato's eyes). This has been bothering me for a while...

I postulated that for so long. It would have made so much sense at the time, but then again for the series continuity sake, him not getting the Rin'negan allowed the villains to be stronger at some point. A Rin'negan BM Naruto at the beginning of the war would have stomped Edo Madara and Tobi (masked) would have been figured out a long time before he did since he Bijuu are going down to the combined power of Naruto's Rin'negan and Kurama.

This was a legitimate possibility though. What reason would Nagato have had to not give Naruto his Rinnegan, especially knowing that Tobi was going to come take it otherwise?

Either Nagato was too emotional at that moment to think properly or Kishi is just being Kishi.

It's not in his character. Naruto would've said something along the lines of "I want to see this world through my own eyes" or some shit

Because it doesn't fit Naruto's fighting style whatsoever.

When you try and forcibly integrate styles that aren't your own, you end up weaker ​because you can't fully make use of it and you yourself are inhibited.

A physically orientated fighter using doujutsu is a very stupid idea.

I advise you to keep your distance with Fanfictions for a time and use the spare time for meditation. Seek your place within the universe.

Nagato was dumb and thought he was special because he had supposedly awoken those eyes himself.

Why would a guy who saw himself as a god think that the eyes that granted him that power could be handled by, or even given to anyone else?

Kishi just probably didn't think about it though, since he already wanted Tobi to get the eyes.

What if Kishimoto cared about Female Characters and actually gave them some urgency in the manga?

Oh lordy lordy. We might have had a well rounded main heorine with a storyline and stakes in this manga.

I think this may have had something to do with Nagato still believing that Tobi was actually "Madara"..and we all know about the hype Madara had that made most shinobi wet their pants.
Tobi did a kickass job of carrying Madara's name,his own feats under that name only furthered that hype.
Hence,i think Nagato thought that by not giving the Rinnegan to Naruto and hiding it with his body was protecting Naruto from "Madara/Tobi"until he became even stronger.I think even though Naruto kicked Nagato's ass he assesed him to still be below Madara's level atleast then.

Nagato was probably not aware that the eyes could be transplanted and retain their powers.

Also, the story could have ended at the end of that arc, which might not have been such a bad thing :)
