Joker gets by via the Insanity Defense.

Well, it is really more complicated than that.

Arkham pulls strings to ensure he always returns, because the many psychologists there want to finally be the ones to gain prestige by solving and fixing the Joker.

Lest we forget, this is the guy that refuses to kill someone that is responsible for the deaths of dozens of people. Probably thousands in the comics. 😛

If Batman killed him, Joker wouldn't have any more appearances. DC wouldn't want to deprive its fans of Joker. 😛

Also, Batkick > Sage of the Six paths & the Juubi.

orochimaru is mr. sinister

The thing about killing the Joker is Batman has handed him over to a justice system that has the death penalty multiple times. As well as put him in the hands of people who have guns and could shoot him (every arresting officer, prison guard, etc.).

It's not Batman that's mindboggling, it's the Gotham justice system.

But...Batman knows Gotham is corrupt. So why not kill your biggest threat that kills thousands?

Like I said, Arkharm uses it funds to ensure Joker always gets handed back to it.

Batman knows this.

There is no excuse for the Joker being alive. Only Harley would mourn his passing, no one else would give a shit, some would be glad he is dead.

I wanted to avoid using Hidan as the Joker since he was actually my first option. Oh well!

I would be sad if the Joker died 🙁. Does this mean I'm a bad person?

Nah.

I have no issue with keeping Joker.

It is Batman's characterization that is inherently flawed.

Batman is no murderer.

Spoiler:
Because obviously his spiritual wellbeing is more important than the millions the Joker has murdered.

Edit: Though to be fair B-man has tried to kill the joker in the past but his supporting cast always stop him. Hush is a good example.

Which shouldn't affect the Jury's decision. If/when he's ruled to be imprisoned, their influence should matter, but if he's sentenced to death they really shouldn't factor into it.

Also, so many people should off him before that point. "Here's the Joker, all tied up!" "Thanks Batman, we'll take him in! *Waits for Bats to fly off, takes out gun, BAM*. I'll lose my badge, but that was worth it,"

anyway, back to naruto

currently speaking, who do you guys think kabuto resurrected that scared the crap out of tobi? it's been a while since we last inquired about it and i can't remember what the consensus was

Minato?

Not Minato. Or any Hokage.

His brother?

it has to be Minato, who else would scare Madara like that? Only other guess would be an Uchiha. I doubt it's the sosp.

It's not Minato.

Apparently it's something that can weaken Madara.

Cannot be Minato, or any of the previous Hokage, as all have been sealed in the Death God, and ET cannot resurrect them.

Could be the actual Madara, if Tobi is not really Madara, or Kabuto could have actually somehow resurrected the Sage of the Six Paths.

The way Tobi is talking, the person seems like it would be impossible to get. Which leads me to believe the Sage is an option. However, I don't think that is likely. Given his wankage, the Sage is the most powerful force from the series. If Kabuto really had him under his control, he would not need Tobi.

Madara is a likely option but Tobi seems to know a lot about the incident between Madara and Hashirama. Only someone there could know about that and know that he got the power of the Senju. He was talking to a dying person so he had no reason to lie.

Madara says that fighting Kabuto at the time would weaken him but he had no qualms about it after obtaining the Rinnegan. He became confident enough to threaten him. So right now he is either not interfering with Kabuto because his help is useful or because that body is linked to his power.

The sage is the only one I can think of who really fits. Perhaps it could have been one of the founding brothers of uchiha or senju? Actually, I wouldn't be surprised if it was a totally new character.

Could be Madara's original body or something like that. Shifting bodies/minds isn't an impossible concept in Naruto, and Tobi seems to be rather unique, almost wood/plant like. He's snapped off his arm with a 'wooden' sound when Torune infected it, and then regrew his arm near a Zetsu-like structure. His body also exudes a weird substance whenever it is damaged (when he snapped off his arm, and when Minato hit him with the Rasengan)
IMO, Tobi's body seems to be an artificial creation.

Though that begs the question, what would Madara's original body mean to 'Madara' in a new body?

Spoiler:
So, seeing as Naruto dodged a full speed punch from A, just like Minato did all those years back, this means that Naruto's faster than Minato's natural speed/on the level of FTG, and that his reflexes are likely on the same level, if not better.
Admittedly, Minato was caught by surprise, while Naruto was expecting A to strike, but A is likely faster now than he was all those years back.

Spoiler:
Turns out that Naruto really is the only way the SA can detect the White Zetsu. However, Shikaku might not know that Naruto would run a greater risk of dying if he used Shadow Clones.

Called it, somewhat. Also, Aura, there's confirmation that he detects evil emotions, not chakra, just like I said. 😛

Spoiler:
Madara created his own version of the 6 Paths of Pain, by using the Edo Tensei'd 2-7 Jinchuurikii. He also gave each one a Sharingan in their right eye, and a Rinnegan in their left. Talk about overpowered.

Shit's about to get real.
