Oh wow look he's back to square one, ignoring evidence at that. The novel adapted it and shounen jump recognised it. So i'm guessing they are not blinded by the truth like you are. You're not addressing the substance of my post. And despite asking you to elaborate, you chose to resort to accusations and somehow switching to another point. So, I'll start again, and maybe I'll get a substantive answer. Or not, up to you. ________________________________________________________________________

Jason: ''The manga had Obito saying Itachi killed his girlfriend, now which source doesn't contradict that..oh yeah tHe nOvEls. Obito killed Izumi in the anime so right away it's canoncity is out of the window. ''

Ninja: ''In the same speech that Obito told Sasuke, "Itachi killed his lover...", Obito said that the Kyuubi attack on Konoha was a "natural occurrence". So, Obito's words are not credible at that point.''


 * First interaction on this point.

Jason: ''There was no need for Obito to lie when Itachi's story in reality was enough to trigger Sasuke to asshole mode. The elders controlling Itachi was what made Sasuke convert so why would Obito lie about something as trivial as Itachi being forced by the elders to kill his GF.''

Ninja: ''Probably the same reason why he chose to lie about the Kyuubi attack on the leaf to be a natural occurrence. As the ramifications of that incident directly led to the suspicion, isolation and eventual Uchiha massacre. Consequently, the Izumi-line paints an even more tragic picture of Itachi, for Sasuke to be affected by.''


 * Second interaction, still looking good lol.

Jason: Lol the character already admitted he didn't lie, so stop trying.

Ninja: What do you mean?


 * Self explanatory, though don't know why you posted the last bit of "stop trying". The manga shows Obito lying, I don't have to "try" for that to exist.

Legion: [1]

Ninja: ''But Obito did lie when he told Sasuke that the Kyuubi attack on the leaf was a "natural occurrence". So what does your post mean?''


 * Literally asking for more information on your point, since you posted a link to an entire chapter without specifying what you find important and how you interpret it.

So, no hostility from my side. Only interested in the substance.
