[Naruto_T7]

When the hell is Kakashi Gaiden going to be animated? The people who don't read the manga won't have a clue what he's talking about when he mentions Obito or Rin

Anyone know?

lulz, I know. The animators will be like, WHAT THE HELL, WE HAVE 1 HOUR BEFORE THAT PART WHEN KAKASHI SAYS RIN AND OBITO, WHAT THE HELL ARE WE GONNA DO. WHO HERE READ THE MANGA

[Nee-sama]

They will probably put it in the anime like a filler arc. My best guess is that we'll see it before or after Jiraiya's fight.

If you think thats far-fetched, then listen to mine.

I think that Kakashi has always had Mangekyo Sharingan. Yes you heard me right. Now before you guys go saying that impossible, let me support my theory.

Now lets begin shall we? We all know as Itachi said, in order to gain a Mangekyo, you need to kill your best friend. This is what confuses me. How the hell does your sharingan able to determine whether or not a person is your best friend? Now, my theory is this:

In order to gain Mangekyo, you do not need to kill your best friend, but go through severe emotional trauma. (For example watching someone close to you die.)

This would explain how Kakashi got the Mangekyo without killing his best friend. ( There is a loophole in this, we do not yet know how Rin died, but assuming from Kakashi's choice to leave Rin behind in Kakashi gaiden, i think that Kakashi never really cared for Rin as much as he did for Obito. Oh hush Yaoi fangirls.....) This would also explain why Kakashi had mangekyo sharingan from the start, he witnessed Obito's death which brought about a change in him.

Same with Sasuke, Sasuke didn't kill his best friend, lets say it still is Naruto. He killed his brother, who was really close to him despite Sasuke's murderous intent. He after this gained his very own mangekyo sharingan.

Now as for more evidence to support my theory, remember when Itachi first came to capture Naruto and had a showdown with Asuma, Kakashi, Gai, and others? (We now know that this visit was not to capture Naruto, but to let Danzo know of his presence.) Kakashi stated that Itachi was slowly losing his eyesight due to his mangekyo sharingan, to which Itachi replied yes. Now how would Kakashi know of this fact without having the MS himself and noticing the degredation of his own eyesight. Unless Kakashi had a friendly chat over a bowl of ramen with Itachi, I don't think there was any other way to know since there at the time there was only one other person who had the Mangekyo Sharingan, Madara.

Make any sense?

yes but mine has two parts. first, maybe obito already had it. i have no founding theory on this. NOW

2, Kakashi said that everyone hes ever cared about is dead. he could be talking about other people than his team, such as his family, another friend, w/e. but away from the "best friend" deal, emotional trauma may be the key, then again, it may also be a catalyst for what really causes the MS to form and trauma stimulates that element.
