So, recently I've been reading threads only about Itachi, Nagato, and Tobi, yet I never really read too much about the rest of the Akatsuki, I'm going to bring up a few points as to why you guys are really just underrating the rest of the Akatsuki..
1. Kakuzu: No one really thinks about Kakuzu too much, and when people do, they under estimate him. For example, last thread I saw someone said "Yeah but Kakuzu's lightning style was laughable"
Obviously here, Kakuzu does indeed use multiple elements (He uses 5 but Kakashi has only seen those three at the time) and he uses them extremely well.
On top of this, Kakuzu was trolled pretty bad. Kakuzu said himself that he fought the first hokage, and he lived to tell the tale, that's a pretty big accomplishment.. Yet he loses to Naruto in one jutsu? I'm sensing a bit of plot no jutsu >.>
2. Hidan: Now, there's a couple of things about Hidan that get people annoyed. Hidan is in the Akatsuki mainly for two reasons: To be partners with Kakuzu (immortality) and to capture Jinchuriki which is his specialty seeing as how he can bring people down to their lowest points of life but keep them alive.
On top of that people always note that he's always stupid and annoying, I can somewhat understand the annoying part, but he isn't dumb, at all..
Here, you can see that Hidan is actually pretty observant as he notices the decrease in Shikamarus shadow techniques, which can prove useful in battles.
3. Kisame: An amazing character in my opinion. He was the first person to be drafted into the Akatsuki, after he killed the previous owner of Samehada. Kisame is in the Akatsuki for two reasons as well.
One reason being that he is indeed an amazing shinobi who can fight well in nearly any circumstance.
The other reason being that his specialty is obtaining Jinchuriki, using Samehada to bring people down to within an inch of death, yet still keeping them alive.
On top of this, Kisame was one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, which is full of some of the most feared ninja, Kisame was smart as well.
Here, Kisame states that he previously tricked the Raikage and Killer Bee into thinking they killed him, meanwhile he hid in Samehada, that's pretty clever.
Again, Kisame was trolled. He only lost to Guy because he didn't use chakra based moves unlike a majority of other ninja, put him up against others, and he'd do more than exceptionally well.
4. Konan: Konan, unfortunatly we don't really get to see her fight, and when she does. It's not too much of a fight so we don't have too much information about her.. So, people argue that her fight against Tobi was pathetic, because she even had a huge set-up and Tobi still won. But think about it, Konan was able to manipulate millions of pieces of paper all at once, that's A LOT of chakra, and the fact that she was also up against TOBI, one of the strongest ninja who also had to resort to Izanami, it's a pretty large accomplishment. Konan had a lot of potential they we didn't get to see. She proved to be tactical and planned out events in the one serious fight we saw her in so kudos to her.
(Note: I couldn't find Konans Databook/It doesn't exist? If someone could get it to me I'd be more than glad to put it in the thread, Please and thank you ;D)
5. Deidera: An awesome ninja in my opinion, and the usage of clay amazed me. Deidera fully thought out all of his strategies in advance with barely any loopholes in it. For example, Deidera keeps the enemy busy with his aerial attacks, while Tobi goes and puts bombs underground, keeping the enemy on his toes at all time. A seemingly unbeatable strategy. On top of this, he made himself basically immune to genjutsu.
Although Sasuke was exactly the kind of person Deidera didn't want to verse. A lightning nature to cancel out his c4, and a Sharingan to actually sense his c4. Deidera got plot no jutsu'd whether you admit it or not is up to you. (Yellow text was too bright =\)
6. Sasori: Very very underrated, also go pretty trolled in his fight vs. Sakura and Lady Chiyo. Sasori had some amazing accomplishments in his life, he killed one of the Kazekages and used iron sand for himself..
On top of that, he poisoned nearly all of his weapons and put up defense after defense (First puppets, 100 puppets, and finally himself) Also, he was very hard to kill, because the only way you could kill him was to hit that one vital point on his body. I don't see why people don't really respect Sasori as much as they should..
I would argue about Zetsu but we don't know the full extent of his power so I won't be doing him.
So, that's about it.. Sorry I sort of got lazy as I kept going.. But I hope I proved my points in this thread, if you have anything else you'd like to add concerning their power, feel free to, or if I messed up on any information. Thanks for reading all the way through^^. Hope this wasn't a waste of time =\

Here, Kakashi absorbs a lightning style attack and later acknowledges how powerful that attack was (note that Kakashi is a lightning style user as well)On top of this, Kakuzu was trolled pretty bad. Kakuzu said himself that he fought the first hokage, and he lived to tell the tale, that's a pretty big accomplishment.. Yet he loses to Naruto in one jutsu? I'm sensing a bit of plot no jutsu >.>
