Hidan, his background wasn't shown in the manga or anime, but in some databook instead. Although his partner has a wide array of jutsu, Hidan didn't. He has to rely on his scythe( which slows him down, making him the slowest Akatsuki character) and his technique which revolves around taking someone else's blood.

His immortality is vaguely explained, his Jashinism and Jashinism overall is quite weak/whack. Kishi could've explained more of his background, after he massacred his neighbours and before joining Akatsuki (how he was introduced in the organisation).

The only thing that made Hidan beareble (<-I don't know how to spell it) to watch, was his grim reaper appearance after ingesting someone's blood. For me, it was pure epicness.
