Maybe the word you're looking for is weak or flawed if you think weak is inappropriate.
Bearing in mind I already gave the meta reason for their placement as "bad" characters:

Nagato arguably terrorized and then finally subjugated an entire nation. He systematically slaughtered his entire opposition down to the babies in their cradles. He was not merely a weak or flawed individual.

Itachi thought the only way to peace was the complete annihilation of an entire group of people. He committed genocide in hopes of stabilizing a region of the world. He was not merely a weak or flawed individual.

They, and others, may have had high ideals or end goals that were idyllic, but they still committed truly bad acts, sometimes even evil, in order to attain their goals. Now I agree that you do not have to be "evil" to be a bad guy (thank you Ralph ), but mass murder is a bit different. They were ultimately bad people.

But neither of them have ever kicked a puppy or anything equivalent.

Both of them also happen to have taken responsibility for their actions. So no they're not bad people. Just wrong.

I think mass murder is a little worse than kicking a dog...

Why can't a bad person become a good person? It's called redemption for a reason...

As it is, I still am unsure if I would classify either as being "good" (mass murder is a little hard to wipe away, even if you do have the power to resurrect many of those that have died or you're really really sorry).

(btw, I do agree that both admitted to being failures.)

Hm... It's hard to explain what makes kicking a dog worse than mass murder. Maybe it's one of those things that you either "get" or "don't get". Some people here should get what I mean tho.

It's a personality-defining thing.

Fair enough. Personally, I think you are talking about a sociopath, not simply a "bad" person, but we seem to have differing opinions on the issue.

So what you're saying is, your definition of "bad person" is "a person who does bad things" whereas mine is not.

It's the same reason James Cameron decided to make his blue people look like cats, with those noses and big ol' eyes, to get the audience to instantly take a liking to them. We like cute animals, that's just the way it is. That's why it sucks when they die in movies, cause they're completely innocent, and don't know anything about evil and stuff.

Conversely, whatever you may think of the whole "one death a tragedy, a million a statistic" thing, in fiction it actually does apply. Why do you think everybody was annoyed during the war that none of the named good guys were dying, just nameless ninja? We didn't know any of those casualties. We didn't care about them, or have any sort of connection with them, not even through one of the characters we do know and love. They weren't even real people, just narrative bowling pins for the villains.

That's pretty much the difference.

By james0246's definition since Naruto changed them they are now good. In case of Nagato it was clear that he was bad before he changed his mind in the end. But in case of Itachi it's quite debatable, but going by james' strict definition he was bad. By debatable i mean killing some people to prevent the death of many more people is debatable (for example dropping the atomic bombs on japan killed a lot but saved many more on both sides), the 1st hokage or Naruto wouldn't kill anyone for this reason while someone like the 2nd hokage would do it.

Yes. And, on a meta level, it is anyone that disagrees with Naruto or opposes him.

I know Kishimoto is tryin to make it out like they were "segregated" but segregation in the USA involved blacks being powerless, not heading the police force.
The Uchiha still rationalizing that they are somehow the victims is just laughable. Wanting to revolt just because they didn't get good real estate IS a good reason to be put down by Itachi.
Tobirama gave them a chance to regain the village's trust and they blew it. So what if they were suspected for the 9 tails' attack? An Uchiha WAS responsible for it. They should have just swallowed their pride and slowly regain the village's trust instead of plotting a revolt and confirming Tobirama's sterotypes of them.
After reading this chapter I'm glad Itachi did what he did. The clan was hopeless from the start.
Last I checked, he put them in a so called position of power because he was fearful of their mental condition making them more powerful + crazy and wanted to keep them in check. He was trying to use their condition soley for the benefit of the village, nothing more. That's his opinion on the Clan, he saw them as emofied and hopeless and doesn't regard their welfare unlike his brother Harishima.
Oh and speaking of powerless, they were, they had no Uchiha clan member involved/representation in the governing of Konoha's affairs, hence they had no voice or input into the runninngs of konoha (a village they had a hand in forming). That's what the Military Police was for, remember? They didn't revolt to get real estate, they just wanted the village elders to hear them out.
And with regards to the nine-tails attack, keyword: suspected, the clan didn't get a fair trail/hearing, they knew they were already being prejudiced by the village elders. This was due to the mistrust already planted by Tobirama and later on fueled by the false accusations of the 9-tails attack which led to Danzo's massacre order to gain their eyes for his nefarious ends.

so I'm guessing your'e okay with mass murder when one clan member does something that his clan wasn't remotely responsible for but since they're from the same clan, it's all the same to you: peter pay's for paul paul pay's for all

I'm sure if Harishima would've reigned a little longer, the Uchiha might've actually gotten proper representation, learn to trust the Senju clan more, close old wounds and actually got along. Why else would Harishima try to call out his brother on bad-talking the clan. After all, it's this same evil clan that outsed their own maniac leader Madara for this guy.

Tobirama did what he did because he lived through those war-torn era battling with the Uchiha Clan back & forth and still didn't trust them, the agreement was made between Madara and Harishima (I'm sure Tobirama didn't like it since he still sees them as oil & water). Which is why he seems prejudiced to me and I can also see where Danzo got this ideal of the village stability over others, it was from him.

If you wanna call yourself a bigoted hater that's fine by me but think before you actually post and don't get blinded by the haterade

You're not putting things in proper perspective at all : /

The two most powerful clans in the ninja world eventually made peace and created a village together, yet the Senju ended up holding the top-tier positions in the government. Despite being a position of authority, the police force's power was relatively limited and kept the Uchiha clan from participating in the top-level governing the affairs of the village, which they felt entitled to considering they were a founding clan of Konoha. This was one of the major causes for the gradual resentment brewing between them; they did not plot to overthrow the village because they resided on undesirable real estate.

Personally, I don't completely condemn Tobirama for his choices, yet I don't believe they were the best possible. On the other hand, the author seems to be sending obvious hints to us that Tobirama was wrong, especially considering his resentful, prejiduced attitude towards the Uchiha, and Hashirama's passionate disaproval.

exactly. itachi was a double agent, meaning that the uchiha needed him as a spy too. meaning that the konoha anbu and root were doing things and deciding things that the uchiha were unaware of. so basically the top tier of konoha from the hokages down throughout the anbu ranks were all operating without much, if any, knowledge and opinion from the uchiha who were supposed to be equals with the senju and lead the village together. the uchiha were screwed

You're also assuming that the village runs on a representative government; it doesn't. From what we have seen it is a dictatorship. The elders advise the kage but the kage has the last say. Or the dynamos do. So all your talk about "having a say" is rubbish.
I said real estate because the only indication that they were segregated was that they were on the outskirts of town.

There was a healthy amount of prejudice against the Uchiha because their leader already tried to revolt. And the 9 tails attack WAS done by an Uchiha. As far as I can tell, the Uchiha continued as the military police and not in a concentration camp. Ask what if they got some dirty looks. They should be glad that's all they get. You act like they were all put in jail without trial or something. That just isn't the case. If anything they are the jailers in a very literal sense.

That was one long sentence. Why would Tobirama trust the Uchiha? They have not given him any reason to. And while he may have been prejudiced against him he still gave them the power to arrest other ninja. How was that a bad deal for the Uchiha?

Again, the Uhiha were hardly mistreated. Kishimoto's definition of segregation is hardly the same as the Americans' (or Nazi Germany) definition. The Uchiha had their own compounds and the power to arrest and detain people. Think about that for a moment and tell they were powerless. And yet they still wanted more prestige and were willing to start a civil war to get it. That's just plain greedy, especially considering the trust Tobirama placed on them.

You base your arguement on what again? Democracy? Something that doesn't exist in this universe. Even the kages are selected by the Dynamos.

Um yeah it so I guess they don't need the friggin votes of respectable Jounin & Elders from the village to nominate a Hokage right? the Daiymo agrees with the elders and jounin's nomination. After that the village pretty much is governed by said elders and the selected hokage . So you tell me where the dictatorship lies? Since dictatorship means sole role by one person only having a say everyone else's decision doesn't matter. If it was a dictatorship Danzo would've taken over by now and wouldn't need Elders/Jounin and the Daiymo's blessing to run the village.

I'm kinda glad you brought that up because Orochimaru mentioned the same thing, even though Tobirama gave them the Military Police, it was position where they were looked at bitterly (even in the real world, no one likes the cops or they are the least favored) so in a way Tobirama set them up for fall banking on the fact that their own downfall would be their mental instability.

Plus, the village already had ANBU Black Ops/ANBU Root Division who were alot higher status & rank, the Military police looked like Mall cops compared to them so they still weren't on good standing.

We don't know how their coup de tat would've gone done, quietly or otherwise and if it would've destroyed the village then the elders could've punish the ones responsible not the innocents, it because of this Sasuke feels justified in returning kind. After all there were children and civilian who were not involved in the plot.
Hell, Itachi even admitted to Sasuke that this whole situation could've been handled better but he messed up by doing things on his own and with little time on his hands.

P.S. Tobirama didn't trust them to begin with so what "trust" Tobirama placed on them are u talking bout?

I don't think anyone's okay with mass murder (here). I would like to point out that the entire clan was in on it.

You don really get how representation works in government do you? The Daiymo don't "give their blessing" they have the final say. They listen to everyone's input but I the end what they say goes. There is no majority rules, there is no vote.

Mall cops with the authority to detain you? Hey I don't like cops either but I still know not to mess with them. Why? Because they have the power to ruin me. I'm pretty sure Itachi was part of ANBU so it wasn't like they were excluded from "elite" stuff.

Negotiations had already broken down. It was stated several times already that they were dead set on revolting. Not saying the 3rd handled it well but the Uchiha put him in an untenable situation. Sit and do nothing and risk more a civil war or take decisive action? He choose the latter.

then why even have the Daiymos present for something the Chuunin exam? Why did the ninja of the village have to defer the selection of the next Hokage to them? It's not a vote; no congress was held, no parliament assembled. Many dictators, emporors, despots had advisors who debated what to tell their ruler, but the ruler had the final say. You are fabricating this system of representation out of thin air.

WHAT ELECTION PROCESS??? The Hokage picks his next successor. It is just handed down. Naruto brings back Tsunade. Did you see an election? When the 4th died was there a fierce campaign battle between the 3rd and Danzo? No and no. Like I said stop making stuff up. There is no such thing as a representive system in the village. Ninjas are from feudal Japan.
Tobirama trusted the Uchiha to safeguard the peace. And yet they became a cancer. He wanted them to use their power to make their home better. Instead they decided to revolt. He was being naive for thinking they could be appeased. They can't. Give them a 1000 bucks and they wonder why you didn't give them 1 million.

I only liked this chapter because of Hashirama.


His personality reminds me of someone. I just can't quite put my finger on it.

I don't think Tobirama was intentionally setting them up for anything. He did want to keep them in a position where they could be closely monitored, but beyond that, I believe he wanted them to be a beneficial force in Konoha. He drew animosity from members of the clan who figured out his ulterior motive, but most, (including Sasuke's father) seemed to have a great deal of pride for their role as Konoha's police force

Likewise, the feelings towards the Uchiha didn't seem to be bitter as a whole. Really it seems like the opposite. They were admired, or at least respected. Sasuke's classmates whisper in awe that he's from the great Uchiha clan. And Kakashi mentions in the Gaiden how the Uchiha are considered a genius clan. Oro only points out that police forces tend to draw resentment from the population, but if there was actually negative feelings towards the Uchiha among the general population, we never see it.

Not exactly true. The Hokage can choose his own successor and the Daimyo can place someone in the position should the previous Hokage not be able to choose a new one. But the Hokage elect still has to be officially accepted by the council of jounin. Ninja of the village (at least in Konoha) absolutely retain right to remove the new Hokage from the seat if he doesn't prove to their liking. Danzou even says this the reason he didn't imprison Naruto after he became Hokage because he knew Naruto was seen as a hero by the village and they would kick him out if he did that.
