Naruto 600, Madara enters the fray

Chapter in 10 seconds:

Kakashi: Are you really Obito?
Obito: That name means nothing to me anymore!
Madara: Hey Obito, sup?
Obito: Goddamnit.

I should do that for each chapter.  Sorry this is late.  I'm a senior and all this schoolwork and SAT Prep keep me from posting quickly.  This chapter was half a flashback but the rest was interesting.  We found out that Tobi really is Obito, before it was a 95% chance and now it is more like 99%.  Anything can happen, but at this point it would be almost impossible for him to be someone else.  

Next Obito is reluctant to talk, but did reveal in that awesome drawing that Rin dying was the reason Obito turned evil.  This seems a little weak to me but oh well.  This is positive naruto reviews, I'll stick to the best parts.  So Obito uses a crazy fire style jutsu powered up by the Mankekyou.  I cant spell that.  SInce his mask is gone, that is why he suddenly is using fire style.  Naruto blocks it with the nine-tails (he seems impervious to fire style every time.)  

Then the kicker.  What made the chapter.  The big one.  Madara joins Obito on the field.  Naruto is screwed.  Madara knew Obito too.  I think when Tobi was upset about Pain dying for Naruto, it was because he wanted to use his rinnegan to revive Madara.  They know each other and that is bad for Naruto and pals.  See you later!

Obito and Tobi, putting it all back together.

Hello all!  I've been digging through my old Naruto books and found some interesting things.  For instance, there is a way to prove that Tobi is Obito which I never noticed before.

Chapter 397- Right after Sasuke kills Itachi

Here you see more of Obito's face than any other panel.  See his face lines? There are 4 which are positioned in such a way that they cannot be wrinkles.  Even Chiyo and her husband didn't have wrinkles like that.  These marks are the result of Obito's face being crushed by the giant rock when he saved Kakashi.

To support this theory we have this:
Chapter 510- Right before Obito kills Konan

As you can see, Kishi went to great lengths to ensure that you could never see the left side of Obito's face.  This is because Obito's left side was not crushed by the rock, and is youthful like Kakashi's.  That is also why Obito had bandages on his forehead, to hide the fact that is face is different on both sides. Put them together and you get this: 
Obito now

Last, Obito seemed not to care about sacrificing his left eye for izanagi against Konan.  This implies that the sharingan he sacrificed was not actually his, since he basically threw it away.  When he fought Danzou's guards, his right arm was infected and Obito just removed his own arm like it was nothing.  He lost the same limb while fighting Konan too.  Since that is the side that was crushed by the rock, it is probably just an augmentation that isn't really part of Obito's body.  Obito could have escaped from the rocks, been resurrected, or found by someone else.  Then he would have augmented himself on his right side since his limbs probably were beyond repair.

Lastly, my biggest problem with the Obito theory was that Obito had no motive.  But then I re-read this:
Chapter 241- Right after Rin is kidnapped

After Obito taught Kakashi about the rule breaking and scum thing he said, "If I'm scum... the rules are no good to me and if breaking them makes me the wrong kind of shinobi... I'll crush all the so-called shinobi."  This speaks for itself.  It is the only time I have seen Obito acting like Tobi until (Pre-Shippuden).  That's all I have to say and I hope it cleared some things up about Obito.

Naruto 599, Tobi is confirmed to be Obito!!!

The latest chapter (599) says that Tobi is in fact Obito.  When we see his face it shows that the right side of his face (on our left) is lined in a strange manner that doesn't look like just old age. his left side is youthful at least making him look Kakashi's age.  I think this means either he is suffering the effects of time travel or has had an augmentation on his right side.  The augmentation could be infusing zetsu into himself or overuse of the  other dimension jutsu that is his trademark.  That would explain why he was bleeding white stuff when his arm got chopped off.  If time travel is involved, it would explain how he was with Itachi to finish off the Uchiha and fighting Minato over the nine-tails.

But their are still plot holes.  How is any of this possible. Can his other dimension jutsu transport him through time as well as space?  Why is Obito's Mankekeyo Sharingan so different from the traditional Tsukuomi, Amaterasu, Susano'o Sharingan?  And the largest one of all, what could possibly be his motivation?  We saw in the chapter a silent flashback of his "short" life.  He was doing great and living a normal life until he got crushed by that boulder.

I don't know.  Just like every chapter, we will have to wait and see.  Hopefully it all fits and Naruto can still kick the crap out of him.  See you later!

Naruto episode... I forgot

I don't remember the name or number of the episode but it had something to do with Naruto and Bee escaping the turtle island.  I like how they showed Bee and Naruto breaking the barriers to escape the island.    I think it was done much better than it was in the Manga.  The animations of the eight tails and controlled kyubi mode were very good too.  Once again, these anime reviews are much shorter and a week behind pirate sites because I just don't care enough about the anime to support pirates.  Not that I don't enjoy it, but I already know 90% of what happens in the anime anyway.  Somehow I want filler episodes to come back, many of them were great.

Naruto 598, Shattering the Mask

Finally, Tobi's mask is shattered and I can finally say that some took a rasengan to the face!  This was a great chapter and this fight has been of epic proportions so far.  First naruto used his chakra hand thing to smash Tobi who slipped through.  Then Tobi throws three giant shiruken at naruto.  Bee catches two and the third slices a tentacle.  Naruto uses Kurama's mouth to catch the third.  Then Kakashi thinks that Tobi is Obito and gets all sad (please tell me he really isn't!).  Guy inspires Kakashi to fight, even though Kakashi is at his limit.  My favorite page is the one with Kakashi's and Tobi's faces next to each other and both are using Kamui at the same time.  This is the first look at Tobi's MS which is exactly the same as Kakashi's.  So we know for a fact that that is Obito's eye.  Since Tobi called Kakashi's an imitation, I think that means he really is Obito (Noooooo!!!).

Naruto's rasengan failed to be sucked in by Kakashi's Kamui so Tobi tries to hit Naruto.  He appears to be a clone since he vanished.  The real Naruto uses another giant Biju Dama to attack Tobi, who has to send his entire body to the other dimension.  Once inside he sees the Naruto clone with the rasengan.  Turns out the clone from before was not hit by Tobi's attack, but was sent to the other dimension by Kamui.  Now that both are inside, Naruto delivers a full rasengan to the face, shattering Toni's mask.

Behold the dirty deed is done.  I've waited so long for this.  Hopefully Tobi is down and out after this and we get an explanation as to who he is and why he is doing this.  I can't wait for next week!

Delay

I'm sorry for not posting in a while I havn't had internet in a long time. In fact I had to get a new router too.  When the next chapter comes out on wednesday (or hopefully tuesday night) I will definetaly cover it.  The Naruto/Tobi fight has been amazing so far.  I know kakashi's MS and Tobi's jutsu seem the same and some would say that means Tobi has to be Obito.  But when you look at tobi's eyes compared to Obito's they are different.  Tobi's are slender and thin while Obito's are more square and big.  Although aging can cause this same effect...  mmm.

Naruto 269

You know whats better than a 69? 269!  Bad joke aside, that was a cool episode.  I don't remember the girl's name, but she was lookin good.  Besides that, Ginkaku and Kinkaku look much better in the anime.  They were cool.  The anime also made Ginkaku's jinchuriki transformation really cool.
