@thousandsteps:
If Hagoromo gave the duo the seals before Madara even absorbed the tree, what does that tell you about his immortality pre-tree, let alone post tree?
He was almost killed..
And he regenerated, with a missing heart no less on the next panel. Hagoromo stated that Madara was trying to become like Kaguya. Becoming like her requires absorbing the Shinju, which grants immortality.
Post-Shinju Madara is the version used here.
Just like how Yamamato didn't back-up his planet destroying statements? He doesn't need to, since we have a reputable source (Unohana) telling us that he has indeed the capacity to destroy the SS given enough time. No reason to ignore this, as this would be going against Kubo's intent.
Same with Madara. Both Hagoromo and Madara boasted about their immortalities. Claiming Madara isn't immortal is going against Kishi's intent, and thus headcanon.
Those statements don’t coincide and by “not backing it up” i mean he never showed the level of his immortality not that he doesn’t have it.
The statements do coincide since both are statements without the on-panel showings, or "backing up their statements" as you put it. The point is, we know Madara has that level of immortality and that's all that matters.
Scratch that, they have access to Senjutsu.
I knew it, if they didn’t energy wouldn’t have properly been equalized.
I'd argue that being able to rip out a soul out of a physical body is soul manipulation, and resisting that is a feat.
Being able to rip a soul out of a body is soul manipulation though grabbing said soul physically and pulling it isn’t resisting anything manipulation wise.
These characters physically grab the soul to rip it. If ripping out a soul is soul manipulation like you suggested, so is pulling back physically then. I don't see the issue.
Reread the chapter, and yeah you're right. He wasn't doing anything, the wounds were stopping Sarutobi.
Yeah
Night Guy bent the staff, it didn't "neg" it's functions like you are implying. Then, he got blitzed by the kick. If Guy made contact with staff, he would've been a goner, bent or not.
Warped the staff to the point Madara couldn’t use it which means he negged it i’m not talking about it’s abilities i‘m talking about it’s use. If Aizen set up a hado 90 and Madara tried to shield himself with the TSB Korutsuhigi would tear it apart like wet tissue paper.
Except he didn't try to shield himself with his TSB like Obito did with the Juubidamas when Night Guy happened. He sticked his staff forward, the speed of Night Guy bent it out of the way, and Guy kicked him. So yes, if Madara tried the same thing with Hado 90, he would get nailed.
Plus, regardless of the outcome, Madara would regenerate, so it wouldn't amount to much other than slowing him down temporarily, assuming Madara would even stand still during the Kurohitsugi.
In the first instance, Madara got teleported inbetween Naruto's Rasengan and Sasuke's Chidori (both of those hands had the seals), and he was simply shocked. He was also focused with retrieving his second Rinnegan. Why should he try to absorb their jutsus (and risk getting hit with the seals) when he can simply switch places with his Limbo?
He didn’t know about the seals he could’ve absorbed their attacks and to amp himself left a limbo then and went for his other rinnegan to finish amping himself.
You are looking too deep into it. Madara was solely focused on acquiring his second Rinnegan to perform his lifelong ambition, after failing to retrieve Sasuke's. Why would he sit around and absorb techniques, risk getting nailed by jutsus, getting weakened and sealed when he can just dip to Kakashi to get his eye?
He knew those kids weren't messing around. He most likely noticed the seals too.
In the second instance, Madara got simply blitzed, nothing he could've done.
He had time to comment on Sasukes speed, he had time to absorb the attack.
You said it. He commented on Sasuke's speed. Meaning Sasuke was fast as shit. He got blitzed. Plus talking is a free action.
