The Best Tobi Theories That Never Happened (Evil Naruto Timeline)

There were several Tobi theories back in the day regarding his identity. Of course Tobi turned out to be Obito Uchiha, but many people had different ideas before Tobi's unmasking in Naruto Shippuden. Some people thought Tobi was Shisui, others thought Tobi was Izuna.
The craziest Tobi theory was that Tobi was Sasuke from the future. He came back to the past frmo a timeline where Naruto became eveil and he has to fix things. Let's take a look at the best Tobi theories from back in the day and determine if they would have been interesting if implemented in the Naruto story.

[@JakeSmith-mq5dc]

Shisui was also nicknamed the teleporter but before we actually saw what that looked like, the only teleporter we'd seen onscreen was Tobi which likely gave further credence to the theory.

[@extremelegendsupreme4596]

Biggest problem with shisui was his age, shisui was only like 6-7 years old during the nine tails attacks, meaning it would be impossible for tobi to be shisui.

[@JakeSmith-mq5dc]

@@extremelegendsupreme4596 Not necessarily. It all depends on how the author writes it, like for example The Masked Man that fought Minato could've been an aged up Madara using a Zetsu body, but later passes the mantle and identity onto a younger successor, but in this case it's Shisui rather than Obito for whatever reason. No one said that it HAD to be the same Masked Man in all of their appearances. Comic book writers pull that stunt a lot.

[@DaedricPrinceNamira]

I actually had a friend who had no idea who Tobi was, I introduced Naruto to him and I got the PLEASURE to watch his reaction to Obito's reveal and Madara's presentation first hand

[@saltysweatyhands]

I got my cousin into watching the anime but I think halfway through shippuden I think he found out one way or another even tho I told him to not look up anything Naruto related lol

[@SlimeGreenBeam]

I’m doing the same with my friend. I tried so hard not to spoil anything. While watching an ep with Tobi, He asked, what’s that guys name with the mask again? I said Obito? My heart dropped. I fucked up. He said no not the kid! I said oh yeah Tobi, sorry their sames are similar. LMFAOOO so far he hasn’t mentioned them being the same person. We’re on the episode where Naruto goes to talk to Nagato (the real pain) .

[@ShadowFiend777]

Izuna being Tobi would've been possible. He had the MS like Madara and was about as powerful, not to mention I see no reason he wouldn't have access to Izanagi. He would of course know the history of Madara and Hashirama and the alias "Tobi" makes just as much sense here as it goes with Obito, since Tobirama was his rival. Izuna's long lifespan could easily be attributed to either the gedo statue or Zestu, with Pain being used to bring Madara back alongside him. Dreams of a far future indeed!

[@mfsalatino]

And Madara could revived him with the Rinnegan

[@xhenkai0001]

b4 i found out i thought it was a unknown Uchiha member tht wanted to js randomly wanted to end the leaf due to itachis actions

[@kaciallen2974]

To me, Tobi was always obviously Obito. It took me until real Madara showed up for real for me to refer to this guy as Madara, in order to keep his identity a secret for my brother who was behind

[@gemini.saga3]

Same had to keep it a secret until he revealed

[@doejhonny]

He could have been madara and sill kept wearing the mask if his battle with hashirama left him horribly disfigured.

[@connorwilson6543]

That's cope. Even if he had been disfigured to such an extent it still would've made a lot more sense for that to be revealed much earlier instead of halfway through the final arc.

[@austinfuller8323]

Everybody can speculate and say what that want, but at the end of the day. I love the way Kishimoto did the story especially in the Edo Tensei 4th Shinobi Alliance Reveal whilst Tobi fought elsewhere meaning he couldn't be in two places at once (besides shadow clone jutsu maybe 🤔)

[@HistoryUnveiled150]

I first I thought that madara can transfer his conscious through his mongekyo sharingan. The other theory i had was that maybe tobi was shisui uchiha

[@maravreloaded]

I mean. We can change the whole "Naruto becomes evil" to "Somebody takes advantage of Naruto's naïveness and takes over the most powerful Kage in the world, crumbling the new ninja society." Somebody like one of the martians, because of course Kishi wants them FOREVER.

[@Dr.LeatherJacket]

He could of just used the trasonform jutju and show his face to a few ppl. Then they see how old madara looks and he says "this why i wear the mask"

[@JakeSmith-mq5dc]

I was of the mind of Obito hosting Madara in some form or fashion because the Masked Man's monicker was the Ghost of the Uchiha, his powers made him feel like a glitch in the world, like he doesn't belong, and a dead leagend inhabiting a younger, but broken body, meddling in the affairs of the present would fit so well. Especially scenes where the Masked Man posed as Madara, reminiscing about Hashirama, or on top of the Madara statue, his connection to Sasuke and grooming him to gain greater powers could've been because he saw a lot of Izuna in him, but couldn't save Izuna. Especially with how it was being revealed. Obito never acts like the Masked Man, if the Reanimation literally ripped Madara's soul from his body and transplanted it into the Reanimated body. Then the nhilistic Obito, who wanted to live a passive life because he considered the world Hell, would suddenly be thrusted back into the driver seat. This would explain why his fighting style and personality was so different from before because Obito is a distinctive individual from Madara. Also why Madara would be playing around so much after being reanimated because if you spent the last several decades cunniving and scheming in borken bodies, a shell of your former self, then suddenly are thrusted back into your prime. Anyone might be understandly get carried away. Also the Yamanaka Mind Transfer jutsus would make the process so easy, but defintely a forbidden practice.

[@prometheusmodelow8322]

This theory actually still stands, some people calle it the "Tobidara" theory. Personally i just see it as Obito roleplaying as Madara lol.

[@PJliciousYT]

[@neo84401]

[@josephmaller592]

Back to the future, done right?

[@mldnne4725]

Naruto turning evil would not be a clear and quick evil turn. It could have been explained by the scenario but unclear to Naruto himself : have the post 4th shinobi war peace era crumbled earlier than Boruto, 5th shinobi war, to protect the village, his friends, or even a just born Boruto, Naruto is forced to uses his power to wage war against the whole world, killing thousands and slowly turning evil without being conscious of it. Sasuke by that time is working for Konoha but he is not fully in the village under Naruto influence. With an exterior point of view he understand that Naruto became what he wished to eradicated. And then he goes to the past to stop that from happening. But yes it would have been weird to implement it. It could be super cool to do like a parallel universe (because we kind of know those exist thanks to the okotsuki), and explore an evil Naruto in that universe, but no more than that.

[@themacewens]

I remember being being in a forum talking about who Tobi was back in the day and one guy said it cant be Obito, thats too obvious. People can make therories of anything, thats the fun part, but I dont see how this was a surprise to people who were theorizing at the time. I mean you can literally spell out Tobi's name using the letters in Obito and his hair is basically identical.

[@tscalf9219]

It makes more sense for it in be itachi from the future because he even tells sasuke abt itachi’s past after the fight

Tbf, Obito was the most obvious, too obvious, therefore, a lot of people (myself include) through that was a bait

Sometimes people forget that movies are scenes are not just exhibit for viewers, they should be a sense or liveness and proving of points to a scene present in each scene else it will be like a staged drama where the actors are aware of your presence but act like they are not. Showing the face to people like konan and nagato will actually prove no point. Naruto doesn't know how the first hokage looks like in real life.

It would’ve been cool if in the future Sasuke killed Naruto but encountered the Otsusuki’s by himself and they ravaged the world, stole Sasuke’s eye and sent him back in time somehow similarly to how Sasuke and Boruto got sent back in time in that filler episode. Then Sasuke took on the Tobi persona to gather the tailed beasts and the Infinite Tsukuyomi was actually needed to get him back to the future to get his left eye back and to get revenge.

My favorite theory is that Tobi is Taiyuchi, the ramen guy. Obviously complete nonsense, even back then, but it's funny to think about and there are actually some things in favor of this theory: -He was the first person to be nice to Naruto, even before Iruka (which is kinda strange considering that the ENTIRE village shunned the kid). He made sure that Naruto would see him often and trust him. -We never see his eyes, they are always closed (or, well, not REALLY closed, but he always squints so they appear closed. Important is that we never see the iris) -In the Uchiha clan photo there is a guy left to Mikoto who looks a lot like him (also squinting) -In a flashback where we see 12-year-old Minato with his sensei Jiraiya, we also see his two teammates; one of which looks - again - a lot like a child Taiyuchi (and is, again, squinting)

[@marko1263]

Well, in the end Naruto didn't really change the system that's responsible for most problems in the story so the future Sasuke theory wouldn't be so farfetched.

[@Starkiller156]

2 things 1. Sasuke stopping Naruto from being hokage could be an interesting premise without it betraying naruto's character. I see it like Naruto could be an dictator of sorts but it's an reverse of what you might think. He enforces a peace policy to a tee that an power imbalance between Naruto and the village and it's what cause naruto's downfall as a hokage. Which is why Sasuke tries incredibly hard here to stop Naruto in the past from reaching that goal. 2. The only theory here i heard before the reveal was izuna being Tobi which captivated me considering beforehand I never heard izuna in anything and never knew what his backstory was until way later.

[@jamestitus472]

I remember when we thought Pain was Naruto's dad, "Arashi."

[@kyotaiken]

I always wanted Tobi to be Izuna, and he would have been acting against Madaras secret real plans, and eventually Madara would come back and have to deal with the mental trauma, as well as a direct foil for his long and well laid out plans, which would have had to necessitate them to be different than the eye of the moon plan, since that would be Izunas answer to whatever Madara would have wanted.

I've played the Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm games ever since I was a kid, with my older brother. So I've kinda known everything although I'm watching the anime for the first time now, to really learn stuff especially since the games skip a lot or go fast. (Currently on the Chiyo/Sasori stuff) Tobi was always my favorite as a kid because he reminded me so much of Deadpool and had very similar characteristics and even a similar type of voice. But I learned he wasn't in the span of only 20 to 30 minutes or so because of the games so I never had that. I wish he would have been a separate, goofy character, and just remained Deadpool like! Knowing he's serious does kinda ruin it for me because I like the original Tobi's personality a lot.

[@Videospiel-Man5730]

There is spiral zetsu tho!

[@friendlykoala]

The problem with the face reveal gimmick is that it pretty much requires to surprise the surrounding characters as well as the readers to work, otherwise there would be no point for a character hiding their face. At the moment Kakashi started to face Tobi, any unmasking sequence made his identity obvious. But if Tobi were anybody else the story would probably not have let Kakashi's team unmask Tobi, and have someone more relevant involved. So I don't think the Shisui option would have been rubbish, could have just found a way to make Edo-Itachi face him for example. Let's say Shisui's plan was to cast a more powerful Kotoamatsukami on the whole world to stop wars, sounds believable. Also, Tobi didn't even have to be specifically an Uchiha, could have gotten a Sharingan like Kakashi or Danzo. Could have even been some artificial humanoid creature like the Zetsus, that's what some people assumed after seeing his injuried arms turn into goo.

Naruto didn't have to be evil for the Time travelling one. All Naruto needed to do is fail to stop war just like Hashirama. Sasuke could have had his own end of the valley fight but in his timeline the eye of the moon plan never happened. Maybe Naruto died and he needed Ashura's chakra or something, or too many biju died in a future war.... This theory fell apart from me when Sasuke's 2nd ability was some sort of short-term time travel (think 5 seconds) but instead it was just kagetsuchi. The theory had potential, very personal stakes and, so long as biju level chakra is needed for Sasuke to ever time travel over years again, Logic.

[@fabstems3388]

The funny thing is, I was literally thinking about what kinda theories people would’ve had about Tobi, and it made me very curious about the topic, thanks for this video!

[@jpcsdutra]

Personally, I've always thought it was Obito, because just like the reveal that Yondaime was Naruto's dad, it was really obvious from the get go; and I think it works well as a villain because Obito is kind of a foil to Naruto, an underdog with a very similar life experience of underestimation, failure, being overshadowed by a team mate, love triangle bs, etc. However, I think there's an universe out there where the reveal is Izuna and the war arc happens completely differently. Izuna is a great foil for Sasuke the same way Obito is for Naruto. He watches his brother being historically villifyied if he doesn't die, he'd be the one other survivor of the massacre with severe brotherly issues, and his plan could boil down to "Okay, it's either an Uchiha's Konoha now, or vengeance" and when he fails, he revives Madara proper. Sasuke fresh out of his trauma of learning the truth having to face an enemy that could be his equal in a lot of his motivations would be huge. Orochimaru, Danzo and Itachi gave him trouble, but they don't really challenge his morality or world views at the point they happen. The run to get stronger for vengeance only to have their vengeance be in vain because Madara and Itachi are fundamentally different characters having different goals could have been such a huge development.

Honestly when you were first described the Tobi=Sasuke theory (which tho insane I’m used to it because I’m a ASOIAF fan and those theories get fucking wild, there’s almost literally an equivalent to Tobi=Sasuke I’ve seen where people think Quaithe is future Daenerys or something) almost immediately reminded me of Infamous 1’s twist with Cole and Kessler, dude time travels trying to prepare his younger self to beat a threat he couldn’t in the future by trying to make him more evil and hardened. But then the millisecond you mentioned the idea of “Hinata dying” as being the reason for Naruto turning evil in this future I immediately thought of the dumb shit Snyder was going to do with Superman in his explanation for the Knightmare timeline. It was apparently going to be explained in one of the JL movies that’ll thankfully never happen is the reason that Superman goes bad in that is solely because Lois dies. Now I can’t get the image of Sasuke as Batman out of head and some random character like Rock Lee traveling back in time for a second to tell younger Sasuke “Hinata is the key!”

[@RobinNicoagain]

When Shippuden was new and fresh, the Obito theory was literally the first suspect and it seemed so obvious as well. But when Madara's name was dropped, the whole thing was dropped immediadly and everyone ate it up. I had my doubts at the time naturally since timeline didn't make sense at all but voicing any doubts on Tobi's identity at this point just brought all the fanboys at you because Tobi said he was Madara and Kishimoto never lied before. However longer the Tobi thing continued, more people started to open up to the thought that maybe whole Madara thing wasn't as obvious as they thought. Once Kabuto dropped the hint of Tobi's identity, the forums started to liven up again with different theories... only to end up in Obito's reveal. It was such a lame 'plot twist' and felt like an insult to the fans. 🤦 Like making all the hints that butler did the murder and then reveal that it was actually the maid who did it and then at the end really confirm that it was really the butler all along. 🤦🤦

[@Grim_enigma]

Ok so this is a theory me and a friend created at the time of the danzo fight just before the war. we thought that its either 1 of 2 scenarios. 1.Tobi is obito. 2. Tobi is kagami Uchiha, he has relation to danzo so he should have some level of anbu info which gave credence to him escaping before the massacre and him wanting to destroy the leaf was due to what danzo ordered itachi to do. abit of a stretch possibly

[@kaze7781]

It is interesting that you say it would be disappointing if he actually was Madara all along. Because that's how it felt like with Obito, at least within the german community xD Since we got to see very early what happened to Obito and which eye was "crushed" and which one he gave to Kakashi, a lot of people here were like: "Yep, it is Obito." When he said he was Madara the people still were like: "No, you are Obito." and when the big "plot twist came" many were laughing cause it was so obvious^^

People shout their shit everywhere and some hit it correctly and found out that it was Obito and it was and has been backed by stuff from before like Tobi Obito in the name, him being a chihuahua basically narrow it down but then you had theories about Danzo never revealing his eye cause he was indeed Tobi. Definitely from the leaf village because he knew about Madara. Even Sasuke from the future could have worked this is what is great about naruto theories. So yeah the big 3 was obito, madara and Shishui. Shisui was never realistic because he is Itachi best bro and Itachi barely interacted with the guy, do not tell me something dumb like he tried to hide his identity from Itachi... Heck when Itachi committed chihuahua genocide Tobi was there to help out, you think Shishui would have been yeah let's genocide my entire family LOLS. Madara could have been canon IF Kabuto never found out about the real Madara and Kakashi never saw unmasked tobi.

I just wanted to let you know when I saw the title to your video I got like really excited on the inside. I don’t know maybe a nostalgic kind of excitement. I don’t know I’m really excited to watch the video cause you’re funny and stuff. Also, your opinions are pretty on point although I do find you a bit negative towards Burrito. No it’s not a spelling error but I also agree I just think you have a lot of experience and your fun to listen to. You should do more nostalgic videos like this just my opinion, and maybe show your face too. I’ve been telling our KZbinrs that because I think it helps with the viewers.

kzbin.info/www/bejne/mXKoqKhteb-EkKssi=qTHJthex20iAapg8 2012 theory and he correctly guessed obito was tobi 😭

[@lightyoshiman]

I still remember those theory's that pain the leader of the Akatsuki was actually minato which when you think about it would hit so god damn hard imagen Nagato being so pissed at the leaf for all it's done to him (Jiraiya sensei aside) they killed his family and best friend so for an act of vengeance (and world peace) Nagato would get a hold of minato's corpes and use his chakra rods to control his body attacking the leaf as the leader pain

[@fenecrusader]

its still very weird to me thats they made tobi a funny or weird character and all akatsuki members just accepted him as a weak member and then they changed the story that tobi was leading akatsuki it doesnt make sense to me

[@KingDCloud]

Lmao I kept myself spoiler free recently watched it was blown cause I was thinking it was madaras will or spirit not body but I was wrong taught Naruto was getting rineggan I was wrong again

[@guyver6622]

my favorite was the ramen guy

[@Universexy1]

It was always known it was obito in my circle. Either him or Madara. But it didn’t take away the impact because at that point it was “oh fuck it really IS him shit”

[@---jj6xl]

Obito was kinda dumb when he chose a name with the same letters as his. TOBI -> OBIT, just double the 'o', that's how I figure it out back in the day

[@why-gc6vl]

Crazy title nah that’s the worst fucking thumbnail reminds me of buzz light year the movie it was okay until the producers got lazy af and just added future buzz as the enemy

[@Gonz120]

[@AYS-v6z]

[@TherefslovesMichaelJordan]
