Wow, this reveal would be really shocking if it weren't so heavily foreshadowed.

On a less cynical note, I really liked the dialogue in this chapter.

I haven't felt this feeling ever since Frieza said he was going to destroy Namek in 5 minutes

I don't know what kind of feeling it is

Pretty weird how in one panel they forgot to color in Obito's hair. Plus there's that panel with Fourth being on the mountain with the other hokages.

As for the story, I'm going to assume he has another personality in him or something. If not, it's either some weird time travel stuff.
Maybe both...

Yet people kept denying that it was him for years for some odd reason. lol
Yeah because it's such an asspull. The next month and a half is probably going to be flashbacks to Obito changing from Naruto Uchiha into a jaded misanthrope who hates the world to show how he became Tobi. There's also the fact that he was crushed by a ****ing rock.

That...what a waste of a chapter. Felt like I was watching an episode of DBZ.
To me it felt like I was watching an episode of Naruto.

I still insist that if we're gonna go the route of bringing back a character that was once thought dead, that this latest chapter would have been a total mind-**** if it had really been Orochimaru all along.

As far as I'm concerned, my certainty that he was still alive somehow is what kept me reading this series. I wish it was in the context of Tobi though.

Just lead us all into believing it's Obito. Leave the dialogue-less flashback even, just to **** with us. I would have been so much happier with the next few chapters just talking about how ****in' far ahead Orochimaru planned for all of this to happen having somehow taken dead-Obito's eye, imagining Kishimoto in his office figuratively tea-bagging theory crafters with a huge-*** smile on his face.
God, that woulda been awesome





I know that's like the least practical idea ever but...
...anyway...

In Sephiroth's hands.
So what kind of BS are they trying to pull?

Wasn't Tobi the 4th's student? Wasn't Tobi like adult sized back when he fought with the 4th? Wasn't Tobi supposed to not be some kind of ****ty plot hole Device?

...I know

The intensity of the mind-**** is compounded even more so when he is somehow two places at once. It's a series like Naruto that I should just expect a chapter explaining 'why' to even the most ludicrous ideas

Not that it was shocking, it was more or less like "whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy rrrrRRRAGGGGGHH!" Clinging on to that little hope that Tobi was, in fact, someone other than ****ing Obito.

and it was all a dream, because madara enacted his moon's eye plan eons ago and the entire series of naruto was a pile of fanciful silliness all along

I think they didn't know what to do with Tobi so just went with the most popular fan theory.

Not completely sure WHY Obito was the most popular fan theory
