Madara has been my favourite villian in media ever since he first made his appearance in the war arc. Madara is a very calm and collected individual, but he doesn't come across as boring or uninteresting, he comes off as a huge badass, imo you could take Batman, wolverine and every badass outside of the naruto universe and Madara is still more badass than all of them combined. He monologues in a way that I find very interesting and extremely convincing, he's not like so many other villains who you just want to shut up, every word of Madara's multiple speeches is very well written, and imo is the most well written character in this series. I also find that he's only debatively evil, as he seems to want world peace just as much as Naruto or Hashirama, the only difference being the means of obtaining peace. he's not evil simply for the sake of being evil, like Orochimaru was, he just had a different way of obtaining peace. he also has a very well developed backstory which is what I feel Orochimaru really lacked. I'll always like how he was the one who basically gave this story a plot. Madara was the mastermind behind almost everything in the story. I love Madara's abilities, he was huge threat, and like some other characters we never got to see his full power, which is something I really enjoy. Madara has everything that makes a villain great and more, to me he's the villain that every other villain should aspire to be. so who's your favourite villain in both the naruto series and in other media and why?
