Before the Fourth Shinobi World War Arc, we knew Madara as a god. He was one of the coolest characters in the manga. He was the most powerful Uchiha and second only to Hashirama. Now, I can only see him as a sore loser. When the flashbacks started, sure it was bad ass that he fused the Kyuubi and the Susano'o. It was cool when the Susano'o cut the Bijuu bomb. He seemed pretty decent as a kid but this most recent chapter ruined my image of him. I thought he would have remained true to his word and stayed friends with Hashirama instead of just walking off. After he leaves with his dad and Izuna we go forward in time and see him get owned time after time by the Senju. The last panel is what sealed the deal for me. Madara telling Hashirama to kill himself or his brother to be 'equal.' Hashirama and Madara played by the same rules their whole life and Madara just happened to be the loser. He reminds me of the one kid everyone knows who throws temper tantrums after you beat him in a game of Halo. Madara went from a the top down to the bottom of my list of great shinobi. None of his actions are admirable and his character is poor.

Preach! I say, preach!
Seriously though, I agree. He lost his credibility

He said even didn't he? Not equal but even? We all knew Hashirama was stronger than Madara back then. You can't compare Edo Madara to the past Madara. He didn't have mokuton or the Rinnegan. Those things make him a god. Plus the fights we are seeing are MS Madara not EMS Madara. There is a power difference here. Madara is using deception to thin the Senju lines. he isn't whining because he lost.

At the expense of making him look like the biggest sore loser in history.

That guy has always been a loser, even he admitted that in a world of winners there are losers, and he's a clear example of this, Senju>Uchiha/Hashirama>Madara and it's been a manga fact for a long time now.

This chapter just makes his character seem like an even bigger loser, that's it.

Not dissing Madara as a character, just stating the way I see his portrayal.

At first, Madara was so legendary that I couldn't fathom seeing him in action. Just hearing the stories from the other characters was enough for me. It kind of makes me not want to see the SO6P in action either.

You need a nice steaming cup
Of shut the hell up

Madara is and will always be a boss
you , my dear hater, are at a loss

I'm not a hater. I was criticizing Kishmoto's bad decision making when it comes to character development.

If you took the effort to read the manga, you'd know that no person is what he seems.

How can people like villains that are bad just because?

The best, most realistic villains have a tragic past. Bad because it's fun is simply a childish way of creating antagonists.

Accept it he is no match for Hashirama until he has Senju DNA

I like the way madara is oro secret lover, but he is truly powerful
he just loses when he doesn't fight smart, or gets too emotional..

I prefer my cups of "shut the hell up" to be cold, it tastes like Pepsi.
Who the hell drinks steaming Pepsi?

I disagree with you. Jiraiya, Naruto, Minato, and Hiruzen are all noble characters who remained awesome through out their development. Kishimoto has had more successful characters than unsuccessful ones. The way he made Madara out to be was crass.

At the very last scene he had EMS already and still lost. Go back and check... Just saying
