no,
im pretty sure the caption says " its surfaced the name obito"
it does not say " his name is obito"
it means that kakashi or guy said out loud your obito ? as a question
there have been no statements in the manga confirming he is obito its just a wtf moment and if you take in account the comments of tobi last week or the week before, he claimed he acquired the eyes at the bridge and in the manner he said them he implied he collected the eye there , he did not imply he was the one who awoken the eye
im pretty convinced kishi is trolling and next week will be a plot switch to the kages or it will be shown that obito is in fact dead and tobi =/= obito
plus the time line does not match for tobi = obito
madara could not of met obito
and i dont buy into the lame time travel crap
Tobi is just an idea, he isn't any particular individual.
He's been passed down generation to generation with the knowledge transferred from the master to the apprentice.
Itachi was supposed to be the next Tobi, but then Itachi was a good guy, he almost ran out of potential Tobi's when they destroyed the village (Make it so the Sharingan can only be used (efficiently) by future Tobis by eliminating the clan) but then Sasuke came around when Itachi didn't kill him, Tobi saw his chance, and tried to recruit a new Tobi.... Doesn't seem to be working out too well so far.
(Oh, and... He's just been int he shadows, never really becoming known, except now, where he has the power/potential to bring the Tobi ideals to fruition)
("He" refers to anyone that has or will become Tobi)
