If you look through the manga, every single villain that Kishi humanized has found redemption. Haku, Zabuza, Gaara, Sasori, Nagato, Konan, Sasuke, the mass murderer Obito, and heck, even the vile Orochimaru with his mere 1 page of sob story as a kid. Kabuto is well on the path to finding redemption.
Fact is, whenever there is a sob story, it makes the villain seem more human hence, the villain somehow finds redemption.
What about villains that he didn't humanize? Gato, Kin Gin Brothers, Deidara, Hidan, Kazuku, etc. Well, they didn't have a sob story so Kishi wrote them off as opportunistic sociopaths &/or sadists deserving of cold deaths.
Madara had a sob story. Following Kishi's pattern, he will find redemption eventually.
I don't have a problem with this, though I hope to God he would not be TNJed.
