A lot of people believe Orochimaru to be a Villian, and personally, I have to disagree. Sure we've always seen him in an antagonistic point of view, but if you truly think about what made Orochimaru this way, and why he does such with no qualms, or uncertainty you'd understand his true purpose. You must be registered for see links The White Snake​ Orochimaru early in his life suffered one of the greatest traumas anyone could suffer; the loss of his parents. Not wanting anyone else to feel such sadness in their lives, Orochimaru dedicated his life, his sole purpose in his misunderstood life to learn every jutsu; To unlock the secret to Immortality. Of course learning such would take an eternity, which he knew all to well, with the understanding of the basic principles of life; You live, to die. Knowing this, Orochimaru had burdened himself to make one of two choices: Would I stop my quest to finding the key to immortality, and end up like my predecessors before me? In the grave? Or.. Would I continue on my path to discover the secret to immortality, even if I become immoral, and my judgement clouded? Would I stray onto the path of darkness, even if in the end it's all for the greater good? Orochimaru chose the latter. He believed going down the road less traveled, as dark as it may have been, would lead to the greatest discovery the world knew; The solvent to death. Orochimaru would sacrifice many lives, all for this purpose, his intentions that of a pure conscience.

Oh the irony.

oh wow look who's back ._.

*reading*

edit: for the greater good or just his own selfish desires.

YowYan my buff brother. Missed ya.

Who knows really? Just depends on your point of view. I honestly think mother nature corrupted him, the dark path he took clouded his judgement, and he commited unspeakable crimes for his goal.

Orochimaru is known to be a monster just like Kaguya becoming a Demon. There are strong connection between the two.

 

[King Kendrick]

Good Thread .

Btw ... When are the Adventures Of Dr Proof and Friends coming back ???

Eh, I don't see the similarities between the two. Mind enlightening me? Also it yes Orochimaru did become a Monster, but it matters how, and why he became one which is all opinionated.

 

[Nattana]

Well, we've known all this for like several years now.

The interesting thing about the majority of characters in the series is that they can be interpreted in a multitude of different ways.

While some, if not many, would see Orochimaru as a villain due to his portrayal as an antagonist, you've shed some light on what may be a completely different interpretation of his character based on what are, seemingly, traces and indications of said persona around the manga. Well done

Never, a certain someone who is not banned snitched on me to the mods, and I got banned. Thank you btw

I hate when people do this. Also you can't "know" something when it's an opinion, not a fact. You can share it, but not know it.

I disagree with the perspective on his ideal as I don't particulary see the implication that Orochimaru did it out of a noble desire rather than his own selfish desire after seeing his parents crumbling to the concept of mortality, especially since Orochimaru has never been implied to have a more noble goal and is constantly portrayed in an antagonistic light.

However, I'll definitely give you a thumbs up for actively making this type of threads as I consider them to be a particulary more interesting read than the typical fanboy wars or ability/underrated/misconception that people spam on a daily basis.

Ignore it. The fact that people state this was a nice read or that they start considering and viewing said character in a different light should pretty much tell you that barely anyone caught onto this, myself included.

 

[Adam Driver]

Good thread but I disagree, I don't think he pursued immortality for 'the greater good' I think he pursued it for selfish reasons which was to become an immortal and learn all jutsu.
He was a villian but he was one of the best written characters and the second best villian (Pein being first)

I appreciate your effort, but it's not an opinion. Those are just some basic manga facts regarding Orochimaru.

It would've been much better if you decided to expand on Oro's future goals apart from him achieving a body-less anthology life form. On how he wanted to get rid of Akatsuki and on his vision of developing Hidden Sound. All these things were touched upon in manga and your actual opinion on them would've been much more interesting than simply stating the obvious.

 

[BlacLord™]

Orochimaru had a bad childhood and he became twisted as a result. His contemporaries have said it, and other observers have note his dark nature.

He is definitely a villain/antagonist but that's not a bad thing, it's actually suitable for him and the manga. He's by far the best villain in the manga; the warped sense of being, the charisma etc. It's easy to forget that immortality is only a means to his end; his ultimate goal was to attain all ninjutsu. A self-orientated and possibly viewed as greedy too, his motives are focused on his self, not the greater good.


But he's excellent at fulfilling the role of a villain... his air makes him excellent and my personal favourite antagonist.

No. No, it is not. Link me the specific page where it states that Orochimaru is doing it out of a noble wish. Implications aren't facts. They can be taken in very different ways depending on the perspective of the person. Besides, the only one stating directly ''We've known this already'' is you specifically. So, it's clearly not a ''we'' case.

Exactly bro. We all look at characters so one-sided, until we don't ya know? That's one of the most interesting things about Naruto imo.

Thank you btw

Rather he did it for selfish purposes or for the vast majority he still might of did such for a noble cause. Orochimaru is a mysterious guy, thinking I even understand his character would be an utter lie, but I'm damn well trying to understand him that's for sure.

And yeah, just irritates me, especially when this is opinionated..
