Sometimes I miss Akatsuki and with the Naruto ending you can see the importance of the group.

Formed of ninjas gathered from all 5 countries for a great cause,they believe there is more to a shinobi than his village and reject it and the shinobi system,eventually they get in Akatsuki where they can understand each other and are determined to fight to death to prove something that makes them unique individually,resulting eventually in breaking the balance in power,which ironically is what gets all shinobis from the 5 countries connected with the alliance.

They may have been labeled as terrorists,traitors,cowards etc but there was more to them than the world ever knew.
Naruto learned that when he decided to listen to Nagato's story instead of killing him and also when Kisame sacrificed his life to protect what Akatsuki believed in.

I think most of them were glad that there are others like them and because of Akatsuki they can stick to their beliefs and become stronger rather than be captured and killed in their own village,even if their beliefs are strange.

No matter how you look at it,they proved that removing the borders and barriers between people will make a new resolution that eventually leads to great revolutions in people's hearts.Forget about your village and see the world with new eyes.

Damn I'll always remember their big influence in Naruto.

Kind of a reach

They were all in it for their own agendas

Zetsu, Pein, Tobi, Konan - Infinite tsukuyomi/bijuu collecting
Itachi - spy
Kisame - idk
Hidan - sacrifices
Kakuzu - to kill
Deidara- forced/art
Orochimaru - research
Sasori- to kill

but true in the end they changed the world forever.

They're easily one of the best things to have happened to the manga, so I mostly agree.

They were some goat storywriting. They just looked powerful and feared by all. They were good villains

They were ALL thrown away as far as i'm concerned which is awful as Hidan, Kakuzu and Deidara are among my favourite characters and had so much potential.

Kisame's motivation was the same as Obito's.
Deidara was fascinated by the Akatuski's members themselves.
Sasori simply liked the protection and infamy of the elite group.
Kakuzu found it financially beneficial.

All of them, despite being minor side characters had their own motivation for being in there and that's the most awesome thing about them.

I miss the feeling of mystery they had, whenever we saw them they were intimidating asf, Boruto arc needs villains like those because Otsutsuki are too predictable
