Who Should've Been the FV?

[Bad Touch Yakushi]

Get people saying this a lot. NOTE: Not JUST YOUR FAVOURITE, but who you think was the most suitable pacing-wise, had the most relationships with characters or just is the more relevant threat.

(Also feel free to move certain plot elements around if it helps, tell us about your ideal FV scenario. Oro and Sasuke don't count.)

Take your pick, I personally go with Obito. Personal connections with all the main cast and caused the history of the recent NV from the 16 year duration the series went on for from killing Naruto's parents to assisting the Uchiha genocide to converting Sasuke.

Where should the manga have stopped, villain-wise?​

 

[Banisher]

Madara, and not some whining emo kid

 

[Angelic.]

I liked how it went.
Obito shoulda brought up politics more tho he's more believable for a revolution

 

[Bad Touch Yakushi]

Madara, and not some whining emo kid

Madara is just an adult emo kid. Less depth too.

 

[Jiren]

Madara tho..

 

[BenjerminGaye]

Obito, since he had his ballsack over everything that went wrong in naruto and sasuke's life

 

[Guntah]

Obito, except less Obito, and more Tobi.

 

[Kakooli]

Orochimaru or Inner Sakura.

 

[Guntah]

THough an evil Sage of Six Paths would have also been SICK.

teh real tobidara!!!

 

[Bimbonium]

I'd say JJ Madara, but his plan for a revival was trash, he had the FV charisma on his revival tho. Evil sage might have been cool too.

Himawari ofc

 

[LoZelda101]

Danzo.

- hidden connections w/ orochi
-connections with hiruzen and the massacre
- direct influences with sasuke, itachi, hiruzen, nagato, konan, tsunade, shisui, sai, kabuto
- had shisui's eye (could've manipulated countless events)
- Raikage believes danzo had some involvement with sand's invasion. i.e hiruzen's death.
- manipulated the gokage summit with koto and he would've gotten away with if it had not meddling byakugan user noticed
- prepared to imprison naruto and use him as his pet after the summit had no sasuke led to his death. etc

Totally forgot him, he also had a hand in Yahiko's death and Nagato becoming pein.

 

[Dondaime Hokage Naruto]

Madara who was in a sense the Evil Version of the Sage.

 

[Silent Hero]

I'm going to go with Danzo. Everything about him was FV material, he leaked of malicious intent without even speaking. Not a lot of characters can emulate that.

No he can't stack up against the later series hero, but he would be the kind of FV that equals them in power by manipulating, kidnapping, threatening, and blackmailing.

Obito no question about it

See as much as I love the more mature political workings from a manga like Naruto...I think he fits being a sub-plot villain, the Uchiha history of Konoha leaves him as a Uchiha villain than a series villain or a Naruto villain. Should he have had a whole arc as villain, barricading the Leaf & desperately seizing control as Hokage using Root? Definitely. Is he relevant to the series' larger scale themes? ...Unsure.
