Though I am aware of your tendencies, having fought with you a few months ago, PLEASE refrain from insults directed towards other members in this thread.

SARCASM is acceptable, as that can be effectively used to help others "remember" something they "forgot".

Insults are just plain rude, and you're always calling people an asswipe.
ironic and hypocritical

Deidara ****ing BLEW UP and yet we see him whole and healthy. If he blew himself up, by the dumbass logic some members put up on the board, he wouldn't be summonable since he'd be dust in the wind. He wouldn't have ANY arms whatsoever.
I agree with your post though ( :.

another interesting fact that I just rediscoverd from reading the fight with the third again.
on chapter 121 page 2 the third sais that edo tensei is not dispersed even if he killed orochimaru.
so I think that from this we can also conclude that the actions of the summond one no longer depended on the chakra's of the caster, and thus is not a drain of chakra for the caster.
and so far we only know that sealing the soul is a working way to defeat edo tensei, but somehow I think there must be another trick to defeating it. one we just don't know about yet.
only 2 options I can think about at the moment (purly theoretical with no basis at all I admit)
1) perhaps it has something to do with that funda tag that they put in the head. perhaps if you can remove or destroy that the soul will be cast out of the sacrefice body
2) or if you can completly destroy the body of the sacreficed person that houses the summond soul

just a though, feal free to smash it to smithereens :p

Dumbass.

Just kidding :-D

Oh, I am going to add to my original post that Edo Tensei does NOT use the actual bodies of the dead. That seems to be a big confusion there that makes me wonder how people can not understand a simple jutsu.

You get a dead body. Summon the soul of someone else into it. Dust and ash surround the body which gives it a certain appearance. You use a special tag to restore original appearances and brainwash the summon. The summon gets their memories, Kekkai Genkai, and jutsu.

@apple pies of doom, thanks man. I make better threads when I'm pissed haha.

Itachi and Nagato has eyes why would Edo Tensei not revive eyes when Deidara's whole body was blown to the wind. If thats the case Edo Tensei can't revive a byakugan user.

Dust and ash surrounds the body to give it the appearance of the person summoned.

this thread needs to be stickied.
Sorry laughed a bit.

And regarding Edo tensei
"Before the technique can be performed, a living sacrifice must be found. The sacrifice's body is used as a vessel for the soul of whoever is being revived, with dirt and ash encasing them to resemble the original body of the person being resurrected. The end product is stored in a casket until summoned by the user."

Some people should watch Orochimaru pwning the 3d hokage again for an explanation...seriously.
They need sacrifices that the soul of the summoned one can inhabit the body, wich wil ltake the appearance of the person the soul is from and ahve his powers.
For example:
Kabuto sacrifices Sausgay and wants to summon Danzou.
Danzou's soul will go to Sasuke's heavily mutilated corpse and take Danzou's appearance and full powers, as when he was alive.

I think you need to re-read my post.

You DON'T need the actual body. You need ANY body.

So if I came over to your house and killed you, or you killed me, and you wanted to bring back your great-aunt Jackie, you could use MY body to bring HER soul to.

Dust and ash would then form around my body, giving me your great-aunt Jackies appearance. Then. Her soul would inhabit my body, which then turns to her body.

Did anyone else remember what Itachi said Kakashi about using sharingan?

He clearly stated that, one has to have a REAL UCHIHA body to use sharingan efficiently and he explained the reason, STAMINA. And this is directly related to physical thing i mean DNA.

I am coming my point now, :)

So how will summoned uchiha will use his sharingan powers efficiently in a non-uchiha body. ( i dont think he will be able to use Tsikiyomi,Susano and ameterasu).

what you think?

PS. I am not sure whether same rule appiles for rinnegan users.
