I'm going to leave it to y'all to discus, but I'll just name a few things.

There are psychopaths in the word like Madara and Orochimaru.
There are young people who go down the wrong path and become criminals. sasuke, sasori, etc
There are schizophrenics like obito and gaara.
There are terrorists (deidara).
There are dictators like saddam, Stalin, etc like danzo.
There are people who love attention due to being ostracized NARUTO.

And so on and so on, Kakashi is also very realistic as he's a good example of how a good person deals with losses. All the kages have fairly realistic personalities, even other prodigies have had a matching personality and goal.

Itachi was rushed Af, when kishi wanted to change him to a good guy, sure he had a pretty hard life, but compared to people in nv and even billions irl it really wasn't the worst childhood ever. He killed his own clan and sacrificed himself, and there are different ways to protect his little brother, there's absolutely nobody who would just chose to end their future for a village that ****ed him over and took advantage of his passive nature, he didn't even get any rewards or benefits from killing his family, the least he could have done is take Sasuke and leave the village and stay out of it (maybe warn elders about details if he wants the uchihas to lose so bad) then stay away for a while till it's over. And instead of talking to Sasuke he makes him hate him so he can get stronger, horrible writing.

He overcame the Curse of Hared on his own and had the Will of Fire, he was everything Indra and his descendants weren't. Deal with it.

What do you expect. He is a god.

Wanking a fictional male character too hard bro, pretty sad.

Which is part of why he is so unrealistic, like he just happened to think on his own at age 6 and overcome it, nature and nurture ain't got shit on itachi.

I wanna add that I do like the fact that kishi made him a good guy and gave him a reason to kill his clan (and mentioning that obito did half the job, cuz that tbh makes uchihas of that time pretty pathetic if it was just itachi doing it before his prime too). HOWEVER, he could have added a few reasons to why he stood against his clan, IMO the coup is fairly justified on their part, IF they had some malicious things going on behind the scenes (eg: what they wanna do with the village AFTER. Killing the elders, not just trying to rebel at minimum casualties), or maybe the clan leaders are corrupt. But to kill his own family who didn't even resist, itss just very unrealistic.

He witnessed war at a young age, so to avoid war a pacifist likely would go to these extremes to bring about the least amount of blood shed.

In the real world this situation & Itachi's convictions definitely are plausible. One would have to question the sanity of that being though, nonetheless.

You forgot that he has to set the record straight for the Uchiha tOo! Uchiha were loosing their repute! How would he have redeemed them? No one was listening to him! And at the end he was too ashamed of his own clan being evil and all! Although I'm still against him killing everyone ! Killing is never a solution to a problem!

Well what I got from your thread is that u are mad that itachi didn't get any prize for sacrificing his clan and himself,and killing them was a foolish move. Right?
According to that,well,his goal was to restore peace to konoha and the world. And he actually did it. Isn't this a price itself?
And u are saying that he could stay away...yes he could,but at the end,he still had to choose to be with konoha or uchiha... He had to make a choice. If he had stayed away konoha and uchiha would make a war and itachi would lose both his village and his clan,specially sasuke . If u were him,would u forgive yourself???? U could do sth to stop this war and u didn't.... That's worse than killing the clan yourself!

I said unrealistic, and I agree with you, even other villains in NV like Obito and madara, are to some extent realistic as there are psychos irl who use instrumental aggression to get what they want for whatever reason, and if people had immense physical strength like NV or weapons of mass destruction at their command they would kill on a bigger scale I would think. As for Itachi, his reasons are just unjustified, that's how I think any logical person would feel.

Oh i read your threat title wrong my bad.

I agree. I never found his character that interesting anyways. He is a very shallow character with zero personality. Even his looks look so boring and bland.

It's not really about getting a prize/reward, although that Would help the case of konoha takes care of him while sending him away even if he was to be blamed, after all he saved the village's time of peace. I know he is supposed to be a big hearted character and the peace would satisfy him, enough that he's okay with being hated by his little brother.

What this thread is saying, that realistically, no one would have ever done that irl, at least not all of it. It's def possible for a person o oppose their family to stand up for their beliefs; but to accept sacrificing all his future, hiding the truth from his brother who he loved to death, and having him plan to kill him, instead of telling him why and taking care of him, he just made both his and his little brothers lives a living hell by doing all that, I don't think anyone would have ever done so.

Well, he was the exaggeration of the values he displayed... It was all for the sake of plot.

If u watch anime u should understand. Itachi didn't stood against his clan. He was their spy!!! Itachi said himself that he really didn't know which side he was on. He just thought the best way to avoid war was killing the uchiha.
Many uchihas hated the village. If he left some of them alive,they would definitely gain even more hatred against the village,becuz there was no reason for itachi to turn against them,or at least they wouldn't understand.
And hey,if he hadn't killed his family(his dad and mom),he would become a criminal anyway,and they would definitely find out that it was his MISSION to kill the clan. U think they would just sit and say OK...we was wrong...that's it...??? Of course not!!!! It would be harder for itachi too.
If u think what happened is ridiculous, then other ways to stop "revolution" would be even more ridiculous!

I...what?

Yeah I said that, you clearly have either been sheltered or don't interact with many types of people. THERE ARE BILLIONS of people who had a horrible childhood growing up, worse than itachi's. He saw people die and grew up in war, so far I personally can match that.

Like idk why you're so surprised to see someone comment that, like seriously? How old are you? Some people here act like some naruto characters have had worse trauma than anyone to ever exist, which is false.

Outside of first world countries, many societies are filled with absolute poverty (which isn't existent in Europe and NA), mass murders, civil war, war, etc...

Even in first world countries, many people grow up in dysfunctional families, abuse, drug addiction, rape, and many things. So seeing a few people die as a child is indeed traumatic, however, he still had a supportive family, loving brother, food, education, and safety (for te ninja world at least). Many people don't have that, even as kids.
