is Tobi immune to MS blindness?

[gatekeeper8]

Spoiler:

ok so i like alot of you have noticed obito is the biggest spammer of MS ever and has never lost his sight and the current theory is its due to hashiramas dna well i think that is not the case due to the fact kakashi has obitos other MS and has not got blind now the theory to that was because it was transplanted now i never under stood that to begin with so what i want to no is what is really goin on with obito is he like immune to the blindness effect or something i mean i dont think it has to do with his dna but his actual sharingan is the only people who have the blindness effect the ones who can awake susanoo because so far as we have seen they are the only ones who have been affected by this affect shisui was known around the world for his MS and altho we have no proof that he didint go blind we no that danzo could use his eye with out going blind also madaras brother was not known to be able to use susanoo and was the one of the brothers who did not go blind altho we do not no if he suffers blur vision so is this a trait that comes with the susanoo or is there some kind of special thing goin on with obito

[SilentBlade]

Its likely that he is immune due to half his body being made up of a Hashirama clone. Remember back when this whole thing started, Zetsu told Obito that more power unlocks from having that Senju DNA...its likely that is the case here with Obito and his body. Its not an EMS for sure! it has combined with no other EMS.

[Devroux]

Hashirama's DNA along with PnJ are seemingly the most plausible theories.

[Maruko]

Senju DNA = Win.

[kalmeast]

that's because of his kind act of giving away one of his sharingan... one sharingan can't go blind lol....

[Maruko]

Meh. He's using the same method Danzou used to prevent himself from passin' out.
Half of Obito's body is actually Senju, so he has better resistance to damage.

[kalmeast]

lol...that's supposed to be a joke...

it's definitely hashi's dna... but why does the eye that uses izanagi get sealed? even with hashi's dna? what's the difference between that sealing away and the getting-blind sealing? just a thought

It's the price you pay. Every jutsu has a weak point.

[Werebazs]

My guess is the blindness effect only kicks in if one has both Mangekyo. Two macthing Mangekyo (the potential to awaken Susano'o) hold too much power for the chakra coils in the eyes to handle, but only one Mangekyo (and no Susano'o) can be handled.

You can't use Susano'o with one Mangekyou.
The sealing of the Sharingan is a side effect of Izanagi and Izanami.
Izanagi is one of the most powerful jutsus. There must a limit to it, or guys would just spam it.
Imagine Sasuke spamming Izanagi...ridiculous.

That's what I said. One Mangekyo= no Susano'o= the strain on the eye is weaker= no blindness

You go blind because the Sharingan seals itself away, not because it puts a strain to the eye.

That's Izanagi and Izanami, which are normal Sharingan techiques. MS techinques are causing blindness because they're overstraining the eye, it was stated the very first time Itachi used Tsukuyomi and Amaterasu.

[Naruto321]

Like Silent Blade said, you are bound to unlock its powers because of the Senju DNA since half of his body is contained with it

So its most unlikely that he will lose his eyesight

[scallanan]

I dunno, this senju dna theory doesn't fit. Like OP said, the only users who experienced blindness were Itachi, Madara, and Sasuke. And they all can use, and are the only ones who can use, Susano'o and probably Tsukuyomi and Amaterasu as well.

Kakashi isn't going blind (or so it seems, WITHOUT senju dna), and Obito spams the out of his MS and hasn't gone blind. Danzo didn't go blind, and neither did Shisui. There is something more to it, methinks.

By the way, nice thread!

Well Susano'o damages the whole body, not just eye.
You go blind of MS, too, but it's a different kind of blindness than the one Izanagi/Izanami causes.

The blindness seems more like a wear and tear thing, rather than sealing. It's fundamentally different than sacrificing an eye for a jutsu.

That's what I wanted to say.

[SenjuUchiha]

Couldve learned a trick or two from madara before he *died* or because his other half of his body is made up of Harishama's wood clone giving him senju DNA and Wood Release

Which brings us back to what I said: the power of 2 MS (which is required to awaken Susano'o) is too much to handle, but 1 MS (which means no Susano'o) is safe.
