He was able to maintain his identity as “Tobi” for almost the entirety of the Fourth Shinobi World War, only to lose the mask when Naruto hit him in the face with a Rasengan.

Aliens/gods are real
Kaguya ÅŒtsutsuki is more than a myth
The final arc of Naruto: Shippuden Took the series in a wildly different direction. The main villain of the final arc, Madara, became too powerful for Naruto and Sasuke to handle.
