You are confused, sir or Ma'am. An anti-hero is someone who a) does the right thing for misguided reasons or b) who acts outside of conventional methods to do the right thing. Example: Sasuke fighting Itachi. At that particular point in the story, Sasuke was not overtly antagonistic, and was actually doing the heroes a solid by fighting someone who was, at that point, considered evil; yet, he did so due to a lust for vengeance, not due to any moral drive.

A villain is someone who does the wrong thing for reasons outside of common moral bounds, or performs actions so egregiously contrary to the moral norm as to ignore moral bent altogether. Obito is a classic example of this: he destroyed Konoha with Kurama in tow, was indirectly responsible for the death of Minato, Kushina, and the majority of his clan (therefore causing the chain events that led to Sasuke's rampancy), likely killed several during his stint as Tobi, aided in the capture and sealing of the Biju, destabilized the government of Amegakure twice (once in instigating the Ame Orphans' formation of Akatuski, and once by killing Konan), aided in the killing of Konoha's appointed leader, Danzo, declared war on the ninja world, killed several hundred during this war, unsealed the Juubi, used it to kill hundreds, and attepted to destroy society as Juubito. These actions are morally inecusable by normal human standards. Upon his redemption, he began to show heroic tendencies again, but this makes him no less a villain than the Joker occasionally teaming with Batman makes him a hero.

dude there are no mam's here....just random guys with random nicknames....and second, I always thought of obito like he did everything for a better world like "the project, the big dream and Rin and etc and all the way, as we learned in the end he was just a puppet until Kakashi ripped the seal out of his heart (as an expression). All I want to say I cant list Obito in the "worst character", cuz he doesn't even deserve it and he got the best ending, plot twist, over surprisingly all the time of all the character in Naruto saga
