Kara are the villains of the new series, so due to power scale and all, they will be undoubtedly stronger than Akatsuki, but will they be cooler or pose a bigger threat than Akatsuki?

During the era of Akatsuki, they were a group of mysterious S Rank shinobi with mysterious powerful abilities, and the main characters weren't that powerful during those times against them. They barely won with combined help and stuff like that. Sasori was defeated by Sakura with Chiyo's help. Hidan was killed by Shikamaru with alot of plan and help from Kakashi and the rest. Kazuku was also defeated by Naruto with Kakashi and the rest of the team. Deidera while being outclassed by Sasuke, was still going to almost kill him at certain points. And we know the rest.

While presently, Kara so far, has a ex shinobi cyborg kind of guy(Ao), A Jiraya wanna be, a guy who can blast things, a lady who can kick things pretty hard(a dinner table), a guy who has interest over that lady and can warp out a dinner table(Boy, does Brock now have competition?) Vs The five strongest villages, allied by the tailed beast, with two of the stongest shinobi in the world against them. The tables are basically turned, with the good guys being more powerful and more of a threat agains the bad guys, but for how long?

When we see Kawaki in the future he seems to still be himself I think. Interesting side note, Kawaki's attire looks remarkably similar to the attire of one of his classmates whose name escapes me (anime only dude with the staff and the rocks). Well, last time we saw a creepy bad guy giving a kid a curse mark, was when he wanted to steal his body. Maybe Jigen is an Otutsuki? Or half of it? Or a descendent of it? Maybe he's preparing Kawaki for the vessel of someone else? Someone who's actually pullong the strings behind Kara? Thekillman wrote: If he's related to Juugo, it would actually explain a lot. After all, his clan was known for violent outbursts. Well to be honest, it seemed he was just another jerk-ish drunken abusive father. Or wouldn't Jigen have any interest on that guy too? Or maybe Kawaki has something special from his mother's side. Which brought to the father to hate him? This seal was given to the descendents of the Otutsuki's right?
