Obito is selfish, his love for Rin is selfish, if he wasn't then he would consider how Rin would feel about his actions, about the fact that he's trying to enslave the world's population, about the fact that he is so selfish in his grief that he's totally and completely disregarding the decisions Rin made as a kunoichi.
One of the major reasons the end of 631 made me an NS shipper (after years of debating NS was inevitable without actually shipping them, it took the end of 631 for me to actually fall in love with this relationship) is because that moment illustrated that Naruto not only loves Sakura, but he respect her. He respects that she's a kunoichi, he respects her strength as a kunoichi, he respects the decisions she might or might not make in a professional capacity. That is the difference I see between Obito's love for Rin, and Naruto's love for Sakura and IF Naruto's feelings for Sakura play into the conversion of Obito, I hope that this difference is played up. That's why I really want for Naruto to truly believe that Sakura is dead, that's why I want to see how he would react and precisely how he'd react differently from Obito because more often than not it feels as if Obito remembers what he feels/felt for Rin, but forgets who and what she was --something needs to remind him of that, something or someone needs to remind him that RIN would be very pissed at him for the way he has reacted.
She died, and he lost everything, the only reason that he found to keep on being alive is that he believed that a genjutsu world would "fix" the world.
The reason why Rin keeps coming when he's about to fail, it's because those are his fondest memories he had, the same thing Sakura was about to die against Sasori and she reminded about team 7.
@DattebayxShannaro.
His actions are selfish ofc because he's not taking into account the will of the others but his love for Rin is not selfish.
He respected Rin too, show me a panel where he forced her to love him, he sacrificed his life for her, and did not expected her to return his feelings, he died without confessing his love for her because he knew she loved another guy and didnt wanted to be a stone on her path, he was willing to fail on a mission to save her, meawhile Kakashi acting like a jerk towards her and he didnt forced his love on RIn, tell me how it's selfish?
Their interactions are pretty much similar to Naruto and Sakura, it's show both of them suporting each other;
The only thing Obi/Rin caused was to the audience feel sorry for him and hopes for Naruto to succeed on NS so he could surpass Obito.
Obito being selfish because he's entitled to his opinion has nothing to do with his love for Rin.
I sympathize with Obito in that regard because he really went through some very tough moments during his life and died in a horrible way, all leading to the the very bad choices he have made, but he is definitely being cuzão pra caraaalho! selfish. He only cares about himself/his desires and doesn't give a damn about others at all, that's pretty much the definition of the word "selfish"
Ainda assim nao torna o amor que ele tem pela Rin, egoísta.
Ele é egoísta porque acredita que o caminho dele e o correto porque o Naruto não passou pelos mesmos problemas que ele.
Mas isso não tem nada a ver com o amor que ele tem pela Rin.
