I've kinda been bugged about how Danzo has gotten away with so many things and yet is still considered to be a "good guy". I know that most people in the village were surprised and weren't very happy when he was positioned for 6th Hokage, but they still don't hate him. I think that some time in the future, all of the things Danzo has done should be revealed. Such as:

-Grouping with Hanzo to destroy Akatsuki. (When the council suggested Kakashi for Hokage because of the reason he was taught by Jiraiya, Danzo said Nagato was taught by Jiraiya as well. The reason Nagato became the evil person he is now is because Danzo and Hanzo indirectly killed Yahiko. And his whole intention for this was just to become Hokage.. selfish..)

-Suggesting the Uchiha Massacare and going through with it. (I kind of agree to this, I mean he had a reason, because of the Nine-tails attack, but I mean I would have rather a more peaceful way to end the conflict, by going through with Hiruzen's ideas. But then Hiruzen might have died and Uchiha would have started the 4th Shinobi World War. Then that brings me to how I hate Tobi, but that's a different topic)

-Manipulating Nono into killing someone who she felt was her son. (Danzo was the one to tell Kabuto to become a spy for the Root, yet he kills him just because he become too good of a spy? Just wrong. And then manipulating someone to kill him? Someone who was very close to him? Danzo gave Kabuto a reason to become all evilish and become Orochimaru's assistant)

-He took 11 Sharingan eyes (Kind of explains for itself. Again, his only reasons were to become Hokage, and he risked Uchiha lives to do so. Good thing Itachi took Shisui's other eye before Danzo could. At least Itachi used it for something good. He also took Shisui's arm! Just to house 10 of his sharingan collection.. jerk..)

-He got help from Orochimaru in order to implant some of Hashirama's DNA (Getting help from a Konoha enemy just because he wants to become Hokage, again?! He should know by now this will all eventually bite him in the butt)

-Being against the past Hokage's beliefs and not wanting to sacrifice himself because he believes he must live for the Shinobi world to learn his way of peace. (More selfishness. All the other Hokage have sacrificed themselves for a good reason, and Tsunade would have too. She almost did already. Thinking that someone could completely change the idea of shinobi without even thinking about sacrificing himself won't work very well. Shinobi would think he is a coward who wouldn't sacrifice himself in the sign of danger, which would easily get him off as a candidate for Hokage)

-Telling the Root not to help defend Konoha from Pain (The only reason was because he wanted Tsunade to fall from the position of Hokage! God, he is so freaking selfish! Hokage this, Hokage that. He doesn't even deserve it!)

-Wanting Anko to be assassinated (Not that big, but what has she done wrong? It's not all her fault she got the cursed seal)

-Telling Root members to find Kabuto (Only to get the medical information to help for his eye and arm.. Again with the getting help from the enemy. Gosh I'm going to say Selfish a lot in this thread.. ._.)

-Manipulating Mifune (At least this didn't completely do something bad, but he still did manipulate)

-Wanting Ao's Byakugan (I'm not completely sure on this, I mean I am taking this information from Narutopedia XD. But still, he doesn't need anymore! He already has 11 sharingans, and he still wants a Byakugan?)

Well, that's it. Most of these things are circled around him wanting to become Hokage, but he did so many evil things to get there.. And he still has the guts to say "I did it for the village". He would have had a better chance if he was like Hiruzen, not staying in the shadows. Manipulating so many people, killing people like it didn't matter, and that all that mattered was that Konoha was safe. He didn't think about what would happen in the future, or how wrong the things he was doing were. He was in cahoots with so many bad people! All to become Hokage, because of some stupid rivalry with Hiruzen..

Ok, now to the manga reader opinion. Danzo is one of the main reasons for some of the villians in Shippuden. He is the one who motivated them, or at least motivated the reason for them to become evil. Examples would be Nagato, Sasuke, and Kabuto. Danzo seems to be needed in the series, but it still seems right for it to be revealed. Maybe by someone like Sai, or another Root member. Sai seems like the best person for the job though, since he has been the only one so far to be wanting to drift from what Danzo is telling him.

Don't flame me, it's just that it's kinda been bothering me and I wanted to see what others thought. Danzo is indeed an important character, but he needs to be revealed. Comment your feelings! And also, please tell me if I got anything wrong, I've gotten most of the stuff from Narutopedia so..

Danzo represents the "realism" element in Naruto, which opposes people like Hiruzen who deal with morals. Honestly.. I don't think he did it for his own benefits. I believe his main goal was to truly protect the village but by using his own standards. Of course, that type of stuff isn't going to work out in a manga based on hope and never giving up. By the manga's point of view, he chose the wrong path.

he is the reason itachi killed his parents
he is the reason pain attack the leaf village because he made the leaf get involve with hanzo
His parents that were planning a coup? You conveniently left that part out.
He tried to destroy Akatsuki before they became a problem. All he did was send ROOT ninja to help Hanzo, Hanzo is more to blame for Pain's creation than Danzo, and he would've attacked the Leaf anyway for the Kyuubi.

Danzo was just bad at being a good boy :D
And he probably wanted the byakugan back (to konoha) because it is a dojutsu that has always been protected from other villages

he's corrupt but still wanted to protect the leaf so it's kinda hard to decide on of he's good or bad
Ya, I guess.. but like Sawdust said, his ways are so wrong.. ._. And he thinks he can do it by himself..

Danzo meant well, he just had a strange and wrong way of doing things.
Ya, I think so :p But this is more about how what he did should be revealed.

no his face should b reaveled when he was young tsunade and shizune saw it and blushed in a book
xD I wish I could watch that omake.

Danzo is a good person with a big heart and he loves children. whats not to like about this guy? xd
Sarcasm? XD Since when does he love children? He made them fight to the death for the Root XD. Oh, that should be a reason..

Thanks for explaining it better. I guess he's evil compared to the other Naruto characters.. But how he talks about it, he usually says he wanted to become Hokage, and not willing to sacrifice himself until the very end.. I mean Hiruzen used the Death God jutsu and he wasn't neccisarly at the end.

Pfft "good guys" and "bad guys". If only it was as simple as that.
I can't really explain it any other way XD I don't really have too many words besides Villian and evil and Hero and good XD

I never liked Danzo Shimura. He seems like an insecure person, who only ruins other people's life. I agree with your post and most of these members need to stop brownosing Danzo's ass.

Like him or hate him, he's the best at what he does. He's the leader of Anbu/Root, and an important person in Konoha. In order to better himself and his village (in his eyes) he operates in the shadows, and uses sneak attacks and stealth to get his things done.

misguided would be a good term to sum up danzo
Hmm I guess you are right XP. It just kinda bugs me... :p
Danzo prevented a civil war and a world war. Thank you Danzo.
He didn't really prevent the world war. Akatsuki wasn't a problem back then, all they wanted was peace, and they weren't like how they are now. Back then Nagato wasn't all bad and stuff :p
he is the reason itachi killed his parents
he is the reason pain attack the leaf village because he made the leaf get involve with hanzo
Basically.. but cause of the coup. I said I kinda understand that, just that there could have been another way to stop it.
danzo is kishi's take on american foreign policy just ****ed up wish my country stayed out of everyone's business
XD I guess that's how I kinda feel, but I don't like to get into politics so :p
His parents that were planning a coup? You conveniently left that part out.
He tried to destroy Akatsuki before they became a problem. All he did was send ROOT ninja to help Hanzo, Hanzo is more to blame for Pain's creation than Danzo, and he would've attacked the Leaf anyway for the Kyuubi.
Akatsuki wasn't a problem before, they were just trying to get peace, and as far as we knew, they had no idea about gathering the beasts. And if I remember right, both Danzo and Hanzo plus Hanzo's army and Danzo's Root were there. Danzo escaped from the Outer Path's wrath.
Danzo was just bad at being a good boy :D
And he probably wanted the byakugan back (to konoha) because it is a dojutsu that has always been protected from other villages
XD about the first part, and I wasn't sure about that. I guess it would make sense.
