A very good quality about Naruto is that he doesn't hold grudges. He gets bashed for believing in the good of everyone (like how Hashirama thought of Madara; that empathy was probably a character trait of Asura). I am of the belief that Naruto knows that no person starts out evil, but is well aware that it is a terrible past that dictates the horrible actions of a person (akin to him having a hard childhood). Obito and Kurama are the ones responsible for the death of his parents and the cause of almost everything negative in Naruto's life, yet Naruto feels sympathetic towards them and shows them a great amount of his gratitude. I don't hate Obito, but in his case... he lost a girl. A girl that didn't even love him back. And because he's an Uchiha, he went crazy (Both Uchihas and jinchuuriki go crazy). Basically, this was Obito's mentality: "A friend doesn't keep his promise... now the world must die" (Got that from a meme, lol). I admire the sacrifices he made for Kakashi and the fact that he gave Kakashi his eyes and all, but don't forget how sinister Obito was at @Elveo pointed out. I'm neutral on him. It's just that someone of Naruto's character is rare, but not necessarily unrealistic. In Sasuke's case... hell, we don't even know his intentions, so I can't say much.
