Do consider him to be a character or a plot device

 

[T o b i]

Both!

 

[GwemBaba]

Plot device.

 

[Shura]

Probably both.

 

[Lucidus]

ide have to go with both

 

[Henchman24]

He is both.

 

[khaoz]

i think character, has been in it since the begining something some people believed and some didn't just like hashi the sages importance will be revealed soon

 

[sagedog]

So far plot. I do hope to this changes and he gets some real screen/page time cause so far we have seen to little for him to be a full blown character

 

[Draphsin]

He has lines...

You must be registered for see images

He's a character, but i guess you could argue that he's both (but definitely more character than plot device)

 

[Sot viing hun]

Both terms are not mutually exclusive, plot devices can be used in the form of a character, so he's both actually.

[SIR HERDERP PRESIDERP SDO]

[Penguin]

I think Plot device. Or he is a static character. Mostly Plot too help Naruto get better.

 

[Naruto KM V2]

character 40% plot device 60%

 

[Decimation206]

Well at the moment plot device

 

[Draphsin]

character 40% plot device 60%

actually its more like 60% character and 40% plot device

You cant be a plot device if you're not a character...

 

[Orochimaruofthesound]

unless the sage makes an appearence hes not a character hes just plot device

 

[Draphsin]

unless the sage makes an appearence hes not a character hes just plot device

He's made an appearance, and even has lines.

Anyways, read the earlier posts, you cant be a plot device without being a character so either way S06P = character.

''A plot device is an object or character in the story whose purpose is purely to drive the Plot or resolve situations.''

Now unless you consider the sage an "object" then he's a character by definition.
