He doesn't have siblings, nor he is an Uchiha, so the answer would be simple,
but as we've seen, he reached a high level in the usage of the Sharingan. so,
based on our knowledge of how the Mangekyou Sharingan works, could the
combination of his and Obito's eye result an Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan?

Is it possible for Kakashi to obtain an Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan?


Technically speaking, Kakashi should be able to obtain the Eternal Mangekyou
Sharingan. But the chances of this happening are very slim.

To obtain an Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, one needs to transplant a Mangekyou
Sharingan, preferable from somebody close to them such as a sibling. Just a
normal transplant should only restore ones eyes sight with its Visual Prowess.

Yet, Kakashi may also be an exception in this case as he does not/barely seem
to lose any of his eyesight when he is using his Sharingan. This might also be
due to the lack of use, and the lack of powerful eye powers besides his Kamui.

The answer to your question is yes, **Kakashi can obtain Eternal Mangekyou
Sharingan**.

But the problem is that his Sharingan consumes a lot of his chakra. At some
stages, his overuse of Kamui made him exhausted, too. In this
**[source](http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Kamui)** , it does say that:

> "Repeated use of the technique puts a great deal of strain on the user,
> causing his left eye to bleed if overused"

As a result, **using Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan could result in a life-
threatening situation for him**. And as per the previous answer, you need to
transplant a Mangekyou Sharingan, preferably from somebody close, such as a
sibling.

Yes, Kakashi can obtain **Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan**. I would have to
disagree with [kakashi's
answer](https://anime.stackexchange.com/questions/6730/is-it-possible-for-
kakashi-to-obtain-an-eternal-mangekyo-sharingan/6760#6760) though. **EMS**
consumes **_lesser chakra_** and puts **_lesser stress_** on the user casting
it. Kakashi has to possess a Mangekyou Sharingan eye, assuming it's compatible
to him, since it's not possible to obtain EMS just by implanting another set
of MS.

So **using EMS would be less life threatening** to him than using MS, since,
there is no risk of blindness after obtaining EMS.

Realistically speaking, **Kakashi cannot gain the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan
(EMS)**.

Reread this section from Chapter 386

![enter image description here](https://i.stack.imgur.com/SZTfw.png)

There are multiple reasons why Kakashi cannot gain EMS. First, the exchange
must be done between clansmen. Kakashi doesn't fit in this category. Further
more, the manga states "simply gaining another's eyes didn't equate to gaining
this power". This is implying that you need to gain your brother's eyes as
well as a new set of eyes.

One can argue that Kakashi and Obito are like brothers, however Kakashi isn't
gaining a new eye if he swaps with Obito.

In the end, it is impossible for Kakashi to achieve EMS.

I think Kakashi's sharingan is already a mangekyou sharingan since mangekyou
sharingan users lose their sight for overusing their mangekyou sharingan but
kakashi has been using it for a while. However, he has chakra problems given
that he is not from the Uchiha clan.

Since we're stuck, let's sum up what we know:

  1. YES - but: his Sharingan uses too much chakra, therefore he would be fully exhausted/maybe dead using the EMS, or he wouldn't be able to use it at its full power.

  2. NO - because: Kakashi doesn't belong to the Uchiha clan, plus he doesn't have brothers or close ones to him with the same ability; even if he had someone, that someone must possess an MS, but we don't know about other people, except Sasuke.

So we could say that the odds are even, but it just hit me... Do we realize
that we are talking about the same eyes??? As much as I would like to see him
equipped with an EMS, if he could gain this eye by simply fusing his one with
Obito's one, it would be the same as Madara would've fused his own eyes into
one (we can argue that he would lose one eye, but the other would be an EMS),
so practically every Uchiha member could've possessed an EMS just by fusing
their own eyes.

So if we must make a conclusion, even if he isn't an Uchiha, nor he has
siblings, therefore he doesn't got a chance to obtain a new set of eyes, I
think the best answer and reason why Kakashi CAN'T obtain an Eternal Mangekyo
Sharingan (but I'm eagerly waiting for "can answers") is because fusing your
own eyes wouldn't result in EMS.

Kakashi is able to obtain EMS from another MS if obtained. He can't transplant
Obitos MS that's stupid each MS eye left, right have there own powers, besides
this they are the same exact MS so there won't be any difference. When someone
has MS and wants a EMS needs another MS from another person (Clanmate) to
obtain EMS by combining those 2 MS they both combine their forms to make a mix
like form for the new EMS.

One thing I'm curious we saw Madara with his brother when he got his eyes they
mixed and became a new form,same thing with Sasuke with Itachi eyes. But I
can't understand when Sasuke fought with Itachi, Itachi wanted Sasuke's eyes
even though they weren't MS. I thought to obtain EMS you need both users' eyes
to be MS with different form to make a new form which would be the EMS, but
the way Itachi was going its like transplanting normal Sharingan with a MS to
make an EMS if that was so and would work what would the new EMS form would
look like?
