i just think that he had one eye, would you believe for someone in his condition to wander around collecting uchiha eyes, which btw would have been destroyed by the hunter nins when the shinobi would have died. i just think that he managed to get his hands on just one eye
he may have manipulated how obito ended up in that cave in using some other method like the multiple zetsus he had lying around. i just dont think izanagi could have been used for this situation
besides if izanagi were to be used there would still be an eye left, albeit blind
Again, I don't understand how "he used Izanagi" is a good explanation, at all, for how Obito was "drawn" to Madara. At least, it's no better an explanation than saying he had Zetsu to track and manipulate Obito and their enemies, or whatever.
I mean, explain to me how he would've used Izanagi (a technique basically for changing your own fate) to draw Obito to himself. I just don't see how it could be used in that situation.
I'm not saying that Madara didn't manipulate the events to get the outcome he wanted, I'm just saying that it doesn't necessarily make sense for him to have used Izanagi to do it.
Izanagi effects only your own personal existence. It can't direcly influence other events. Like say use Izanagi to move Naruto from point a to b or whatever.
you mean he used izanagi to save Obito from rocks? then why is he half mutilated, izanagi would make like it never happened.
My question is why he only got one eye(Sharingan), i mean he was so powerful that he could use zetsu to set a trap for a uchiha and steals his/her eyes..
And another thing madara is a beast with a simple sharingan(stolen) not MS, to have that kind of genjusu..
As far as I see it, being a free-willed ET ninja seems to be massively advantageous to Madara than being a living breathing ninja.
Madara already knew of the ET ritual, so it was well within his abilities to teach that to Obito.
Is it possible that Madara wanted to be brought back by the rinnengan techniques because otherwise there was no way that he could become the 10 tails jinchurichi?
Perhaps ET ninjas can not change - and will forever remain at the condition that they were brought back at. Therefore, this would stop him being able to become the host to the 10 tails. Therefore, he would not have the ability for his IT technique.
This means that Madara is entirely in the palm of Obito's hand, even though he is much more powerful.
There could be a way to bypass the whole ET not bein able to change. I think do what Tobi did to the jinchuuriki and use the chakra rod to temporarily give Madara all the chakra he needs.
If I had to guess, I'd say that Madara knew how to cancel or resist the effects of Edo Tensei, but probably didn't know the inner workings of the technique, and didn't consider being revived through it to be ideal (it's worth noting that Kabuto has "perfected" the technique far beyond what would've been possible in Madara's time, and I assume that modifications, such as the introduction of Senju cells, were probably not possible either).
If I had to speculate further, I'd say that he and/or Izuna probably did battle with Tobirama enough to learn how to deal with the technique. In fact, one theory I had was that Tobirama actually used it to reincarnate Izuna, of all people, because beyond the Uchiha and Senju brotherse themselves there aren't any impressive (or dramatic) candidates from that time that we've actually heard of. I like to imagine that Izuna was reincarnated and actually broke free of Tobirama's control, and went after Madara personally (revenge for fraticide and eye theft).
I'm not sure if they got extra power, but they definitely got the bijuu's power without becoming a jinchuuriki again. I think this is the six paths technique. Dunno why it wouldn't work for Madara since it worked for the jinchuuriki as well.
The connection to the bijuu through the rods (connecting to the Mazou) that Naruto experienced may just be a quirk of the technique (6 paths one) and the nature of the bijuu connecting him directly to their souls or something?!?
No, I think Goku himself stated the stake/rod was the reason why he was in his jinchuuriki's body, if I recall. I posted the link in the Chapter Discussion, maybe you might have a different or more correct interpretation than I did.
good inspection. Now question is why Madara died at all? He could have him self ETed by someone, and work with Obito all the time. For example, Oro worked for Akatsuki/Obito for some time, he could ET Madara and have him included in the game of collecting bijus.

But Madara definitely didn't planed to be ET, but revived properly, so theres a good question why? What is his 'weakness' in ET mode?
