Everything about him was poorly handled. When he showed up he was comic relief. Then he said he was Madara with stereotypical plans of world domination. And while that on it's own is hella lame, the fact that he went all out in his attempts to achieve it made him interesting. Then the mask came off and he was 100% bitch mode.

I don't care about the in story reasoning. I don't care about him being manipulated by a guy who was just a peg lower than being as bad as Captain Broken (Aizen if ya'll didn't know). To me, I said his motivation was hella lame, but it was a hell of a lot better than him constantly whining about how the world sucks because the girl he loved was killed in it. He stopped being a menacing character who's motivation, whatever they were, did not justify the means at which he went to achieve them. But as soon as the mask came off, Kishimoto spent a good year humanizing him which, while it worked, left a sour taste in my mouth because it looked like a lot of effort to turn a super villain into a hero.

agreed; Tobi was much better as Masked Madara, he should of just been Madara in the first place.
