Someone
Fucking everyone did you schlomo
So many people knew it was Obito that they had to loop back around to say it was too fucking obvious. This was before people were really willing to call Kishimoto a fucking retard because Part II just started.
i mean if kishi didn't want to make it obvious maybe he shouldn't have named the guy tobi
Everyone knew. Kishimoto gave him a mask with only one eye hole even though he had transplanted a new sharingan AND named him Tobi (Tobito was his nickname for the longest time). It was so fucking obvious people thought it had to be a red herring because Kishimoto couldn't possibly be this retarded.
His original plan was to name him Toobi
I think it was obvious since Kakashi backstory.
Literally everyone on here and gamefaqs called tobi = obito during rescue gaara, zoomer. That's why kishi tried a bait and switch with Madara when he revealed Pain's name and face after H&K arc
Maybe the red herring was making us think it was a red herring.
Everyone at least had suspicions.
The only difference is that some were certain, and others thought it was too obvious to be true and overthought it.
You don't need to bring up some random fucking chinese forumposts to make predictions everybody and their mom did for shit so obvious, that it was a point riding against it that it couldn't be that obvious like Naruto's dad being the 4th hokage
idek what this is sAYING
I knew it and I've never even read Naruto
IIRC someone predicted itachi was a good guy.
u had to follow it to know it
based
You know if everyone is throwing out theories someone is eventually gonna guess it right just by sheer numbers logic.
I don't know who that is since forever
it didn't take a huge leap of logic to make a connectiom between the guy named obito that gave an eye to kakashi and the guy named tobi that has only one eyehole in his mask
This is something you say when a twist happens but a small handful of people theorized it beforehand. Tobi being Obito was called so early and by so many that a friend of mine who was trying to sell me on Naruto in high school brought that up when giving me a synopsis. This was in 2007
I was in the group that believed Tobi was Madara, am I retarded?
there are people who unironically felt for the madara meme
I believed Tobi was Madara because I never wanted him to be anyone else. Obito had a great ending and I didn’t want another evil Uchiha
That's actually big brained stuff
I've only watched Naruto up until Pain kills the whole village. Isn't Tobi Madara, the strongest Uchihara and strongest ever that has a meme about him?
Anyway, I'm disappointed he wasn't just Tobi, the funny henchman.
Tobi being Madara with Obtio's sharingan makes a lot more sense than Obito going from a complete scrub to being able to control the kyuubi and give the fourth trouble within a year
Who the FUCK didn't know Obito was Obito?
reveals that Tobi is Madara and pulling the strings while Pain is still alive making Pain look like a bitch
the real asspull was Obito's other sharingan still working after that half of his head got crushed
one eyed guy in a mask appears
"hey maybe he's this other one eyed guy"
wow, real hard hitting analysis there
It was fucking obvious. Introduce Tobi, then have arc about when kakashi was a kid and how he got his hax eye.
I thought it was Shisui with Obito's other eye.
I remember someone predicted Tobi is Naruto's dad
Not as impressive as people calling out the fucking leap second before it was revealed.
Everyone ITT pretending they knew who obito was in 2006
by 2008-2009 it was obvious, but not 2006
I had a weird crank theory after Kabuto appeared that somehow Madara had managed to split his essence or whatever in half, and one of those was Tobi.
The fucker didn't even change his hairstyle.
that was a redherring, Madara was merely Obitos mentor. Later on the real madara is brought back and Obito/Tobi just became a henchman that was dealt with power of friendship
Was it running out of ideas, editorial intervention or did Kishimoto just get burned out by the weekly schedule?
Naruto just started drifting more and more away from what made it original good.
my man, 10 year old me who couldn't speak proper english yet guessed it was Obito back in 2008
It was so fucking obvious people thought it had to be a red herring because Kishimoto couldn't possibly be this retarded.
Oldfag here. A lot of people dropped when it started looking for real like Yondaime was Nard's dad, completely negating the chapter one premise of him being shit on by the village for hosting Kyuubi. Why in the FUCK would they be so mean to their savior's only son? Kishimoto being a retarded storyteller had to be known at least by this point.
No editor-san to tardwrangle him when he needed it.
I did like the idea of Naruto being a Fox spirit rather than just having it inside him.
Hey Anime only zoomer
Kakashi gaiden happens before the time skip in the Manga, so it was actually obvious from the very second Tobi appeared
It was one of the leading theories back then, yeah. Tobi = Minato had more meme potential and was more popular, though.
Yeah, it's kind of retarded how Hiruzen managed to sweep that shitfest under the rug and sentenced an innocent kid to a childhood of neglect and bullying.
hurr muh yondaime enemies could seek revenge by killing his son
Bro, it's a miracle a random villager or a mob didn't break in his welfare apartment and lynched him. The Kyuubi killed a lot of people.
It would also make sense as to why the entire village ostracized the Fourth's own 'son' and Sarutobi did absolute jack shit about it. On the other hand, Naruto would actually look like this.
haku could've been a bear
zabuza could've been the twink
officially we are in the bad timeline.
Tobi is clearly Danzou. They are both OLD and are hiding an eye!
If you considered that Tobi might be Obito, but wrote it off as being too obvious and thought he was Madara instead, then you're not retarded. You were just overthinking.
If the thought of Tobi being Obito never crossed your mind, then you are retarded.
I remember there was one chapter when Itachi and Sasuke's fighting where Itachi puts on a crazy act and starts ranting about how he only kept Sasuke alive because he knew he'd need a replacement set of eyes some day. When that chapter first dropped, people praising the plot twist that Itachi was actually just a power-hungry cunt the whole time. (although that lasted two chapters before we found out he was lying)
Bro, it's a miracle a random villager or a mob didn't break in his welfare apartment and lynched him. The Kyuubi killed a lot of people.
That doesn't make sense because nurutu never asked to have a demon put in him.
I actually respect Kishi for making a twist so obvious that people thought that couldn't actually be the answer, and sticking to his guns and making it true.
