Yeah. People used to get ridiculed for saying " if you take the extra O out of Obito you get Tobi. Tobi = obito confirmed"I wasn't feeling when Obito was revealed to be Tobi either just because of the fact that cats on forums have been saying that for years
I wanted them to be wrong; for something way better to have occurred
" Then I changed pages and was still surprised.
The blood doesn't kill you. It just puts you under that quincy's control presumably until she's dead herself.
I think its clearly Naruto. Just in this chapter Naruto was the only one able to deal real damage to Kaguya.
I mean explanations are usually that simple. It does make sense... and I'm sure Kishi thought he was being clever ("Obito minus one O, or eye if you will, equals Tobi.") Dude was probably giggling with glee at how brilliant it was and how we'd all get our minds blown.Exactly
I remember everyone used to think that sounded ridiculous and wouldn't make sense. It still doesn't really, but not much in Naruto seems to anymore.
Exactly

I feel like a lot of people knew once they showed Tobi with a sharingan, but just didn't want it to be Obito
All of that aside, it didn't make sense because Obito was crushed by a freaking boulder. He would've died instantly to tell the truth. I could see if he fell into a chasm or something but that's like saying, "you know that character who was shot in the head earlier, turns out he's the bad guy all along."Exactly

It makes plenty of sense; you're just looking at it from the perspective of American grammar.
Obito is a perfect anagram of Tobi in Japanese. Obito could possibly be rendered as "obit" due to the fact that all words ending in a hard consonant sounds end in "O" or "U" in Japan.
So if you moved around the O and T in Tobi you would automatically get Obito.
There were other clues, too
Tobi appearing RIGHT after Obito's reveal and supposed death in the Gaiden
Kakashi somehow having a Mangekyo (also introduced at the same time as Tobi)
Obito's face under the mask being "wrinkled" like an old man and yet when he removed his mask and was regenerating his arm, the other side of his face was young, smooth, and wrinkle free
Using warp-like techniques with his Sharingan
Kishi laid the clues out for years. He wasn't trying to fool anyone. The entire point of giving "Madara" a mask was because he wanted readers to know that "Madara" wasn't who he said he was.
