Favorite character? Well, anyone who's seen my posts know I love Kakashi. considering his past, it's insane that he's still the exemplary shinobi he is today. His dad commits suicide, his best friend dies (sort of his fault), he breaks promise to said friend by not only failing to protect Rin, but killing her with his own hand. Then his sensei dies, while he isn't allowed to participate in the battle that took him. Then he later finds out that his best friend, who he's looked up to for so long, is actually alive and is trying to end the world as he knew it. He then is forced to battle him and stab him in the chest with his Raikiri. Which is actually the same way Rin died. Then Obito is REALLY killed, because he saved Kakashi from an attack.

The part about Kakashi having stabbed both his teammates through the chest with Chidori/Raikiri really got to me.

But he's still the exemplary shinobi and even becomes Hokage.

If someone else had Kakashi's past I think they'd have been a MAJOR villain, considering how the rest of the series is with their villains and their backstories.

Also, besides the Sharingan, Kamui and the one major a**pull Susanoo (which to me was still too epic for words), he's received the least powerups out of the main characters really, besides maybe Sakura. Idk, haven't counted hers. He's really mainly gotten powerful under his own steam. I mean, Jounin at such a young age by himself. That's indicative by itself. Sasuke didn't even develop that fast, not even close.

Kakashi's my favorite, I wish we would've seen more of him in battle, especially his "rampage."
