View Full Version : Spoiler: Why Obito Could Have Gotten MS So Early

The is just a theory I'm throwing out, but listen to this:
The Sharingan is an instinctive attribute. Its awakening cannot be controlled anymore than a person growing hair. His two-tomoe Sharingan awakened itself because Obito was in a situation where death was a possibility. A one-tomoe Sharingan probably would not have been able to keep him from dying because he needed to see chakra (so far, we haven't seen anything from the one-tomoe). That Sharingan awakened because of Obito's instinctive need for one (and because he's uchiha).
When Obito was piled under the rocks, his two-tomoe Sharingan would not have been able to save him, and neither would have a three-tomoe. So, after Kakashi and Rin leave to go kill the other guy, Obito is presented with a situation where death is a possibility, and where his current abilities won't save him. Once again, his instinctive need for a higher power kicks in, and his MS is awakened. Then, he simply phases out of the rocks.
Think of it as an action of the universe kind of thing. I know it sounds cheesy, but also try and remember this: we have never seen an Uchiha knowingly die with only a basic Sharingan (because of this instinct).

Your not the only one who thinks this :lol: That's honestly the only legit explanation for Obito surviving the rocks. Don't wanna hear any of that " someone decided to look inside a fallen cave for no friggin reason and saved him"

We saw him under rocks, and he had a two tomoe sharingan activated.
Is it possible to awaken MS in one eye only? I think it appears in both at the same time.

I think you can get them one at a time.
I remember hearing Sasu/Itachi saying "those who control the double mangekyo" implying you can get one at a time
He most likely got it as the cave was collapsing. Assuming Obito really is Tobi :lol:

Zetsu could also have watched their battle like he usually watches battles, and saved him in the last moment where nobody would notice it.
For the purpose of getting the sharingan? Some other message from madara?Who knows, but i think developing MS right there seems a bit unlikely.
Tobi has a bond with Zetsu (the goo on his arms when he gets damaged in fights) he might aswell have established that bond that day.

I thought about this for a while. I just could not convince myself that its true! HOWEVER!! and I put this out there because I refuse to discount a decent theory, If you think about Naruto for a bit, in the beginning he was really an unimpressive punk with no natural abilities what-so-ever, but he had that power inside him and his incredible body strength that no one knew about.
Obito is kind of the same in the sense that he was seen as a loser, with no potential ability, a "black sheep." That said, you potentially could be right in terms of his awakening the MS. However, we've never seen an MS awaken without a killing! Sasuke got his from killing Itachi, Itachi probably got his from Shisui dying and likely the potential to awaken the MS for Kakashi came from Obito (or Rin) dying (even though it didnt activate that early.
I am not saying that the individual had to KILL their closest friend, but the loss or the death of that individual has something to do with the MS awakening. I don't know if Obito was able to or not, but its certainly a good question.

If Obito IS Tobi, then the killing HAS to have something to do with Rin.

Yeah, I forgot. :)
But, I won't be surprised if Tobi uses Susano'o with just one.

It's like an Uchiha's instinct, right ? Yeah I agree its possible but here comes another question:
Why didnt he do this right after the rock smashed him or.. as you say his specific sharingan abilities unlock in the suitable specific moment. When Obito saw the upcoming rock falling over him why didnt his Mangekyou Sharingan reacted (activated), as an Uchiha's instinct, and saved him ?

We could say thats pretty impossible. Susano'o is ability which is granted after the user learns Tsukuyomi in one of his eyes and Amaterasu in the other.
So its pretty impossible for Tobi to have Susano'o cuz he has only one MS eye.
However we still dont know what if Kakashi learns Amaterasu and Tobi learns Tsukuyomi (or the reverse) will they be able to use Susano'o ? :D

Itachi said that Susano'o is the power of those who awaken Mangekyou in both eyes, and that it's the 3rd power that awakened besides Amaterasu and Susano'o.
Maybe If Kakashi had two Obit's eyes with MS, he'd have a new haxx jutsu like Susano'o!

I like this idea for Obito's escape, if he's Tobi. And the way he said kakashi's power is borrowed, without suggesting his own eye is borrowed... suggests Tobi is Obito. Or at least a Uchiha.
The boulder may has crushed Obito, but you could say theat after a dieing person sends their friends away.. or have to go in this case, Obito might have changed his mind and not been accepting of death.
This stress and feeling your self start to die, could be recognized by the body and released a life and death reaction. In real life, it might be adrenalin, to lift the back of a car off somebody run over. This has happened a number of times.
wiki: hysterical strength.

Obito was saved by Kagami, his father!
Note how sasuke and itachi are the only ones with amaterasu and tsukoyomi.
Obitos bloodline, possibly izuna's, was the time/space one. He feared his power and gave his eye to madara.
That is why Madara has susano, but izuna didnt seem to have it

You know whats interesting? When obito was under the boulder while Kakashi fought the guy, the guy returned, looking down at Rin. She got scared, but Obito told her not to be scared, but to look, and sure enough kakashi came and the bad guy was actually dead.
How did Obito know that when his right eye was taken away? This shows that his eye under the boulder wasn't damaged and he could still see chakra throught objects with it.
It shows that Kishimoto already back then thought about using obito's eye/whole body for later.
