REACTION VIDEO | "Shippuden" Clips - Danzo The Coward!

- Reaction video time again, and given all the miserable qualities I already knew about Danzo, I guess I shouldn't have been surprised to learn that many of his issues are a direct result of how own cowardice.

Okay, gang, as this comments section is going strong right now, I have an unrelated question. (Although, this vid couldn't have been posted on a better day, as I was on edge all day and looking for a fight of some sort.)
I'm referencing a very important character in Rauha, and I was wondering if you guys - particularly those of you in, or with ties to, that region - could give me a hand?
What is a good name for a Finnish male? I looked at some online lists, but I have no idea which ones are truly indicatively Finnish and which ones are more ancillary... I don't mean that the name needs to be the most popular, just one a Finnish person would likely be familiar with.
And just after I posted this, I realized it's about 3AM in Finland... This post was probably not particularly well-timed!
Spaz Boys Comedy yeah
Finnish is a good Finnish name. :) notice me senpai?
"Finnish" seems too on the nose. :-D

To be fair to danzo, i wouldn't call anyone refusing to take on a suicide mission a coward imo.
Its the act of selflessness,u willing to sacrifice your self in order to protect 10 members of your family,or youre just gonna stand still until someone has to do it(your other fam member).its happening during war when you have to save your comrades.yet the choice is yours,btw youre not going to get medal and promotion without superb act in war isnt it?
he was still trying to convince himself. it's not like he was just saying no. inside his mind, he wanted to fight his cowardice.
No, he was not a coward for not standing up for the sacrifice. He was a coward for his later choices in life selfishly sacrificing OTHER shinobi for his cause instead of sacrificing himself for the shinobi cause.
And he was a coward for giving up on fixing his flaws. It is one thing to be flawed yet acknowledge their existence. It is another to admit your flaw and then not only never try to fix it but to double down on the flaw for every life choice to come.
So he was definitely not a coward in the flashback but he was the biggest worst kind of coward for the rest of his life.
The hate from the fandom is exceptionally well deserved.
@@pspublic13 not really. he has enough experience to know that few people share his perspective such that he can entrust his dreams to them. since that isn't the case, he has to be the one to do it
@Thus Spoke Zarathustra In Naruto they would, they're shinobi. Samurai in the real world took their lives like nothing, danzos a punk
Danzo Is a realistic character in an unrealistic world.
SnowyWolborg
Bruh........
SnowyWolborg yeah. He acts as a real politic/leader of black ops. I really like him.
Argreed
Never thought of it that way
one of the only characters that behaved like a ninja too..
At 10:38 when Danzo said he’d protect the shinobi world from those two, I kinda felt bad for him because he obviously did a lot of bad things, but in the end it was all for the protection of the Hidden Leaf.
after all, people show their true colors when they are about to die. while it doesn't redeem danzos evil doings, its still reassuring that atleast he tried to protect the hidden leaf.
Yeah he gathered all those sharingans to protect the village, its only thanks to that that he saved the leaf village from pain.. oh wait, he didn't even try.
no he didn't? or at least not in the first place... in the first place he did everything to become Hokage (and Hokage needs village)
...like killing the Messanger frog huh?
He killed frog cuz he didn't want pain get the nine tail. Well he is stupid thinking someone take on to beat pain and maybe pain kill tsunade so he can be hokage.
I think you were way too hard on Danzo in that flash back... 99.9% of people wouldn't have had the courage to sign up for a 100% guaranteed suicide Mission... Even someone as powerful as the Second Hokage died taking the mission... none of them stood a chance and they knew it.
Nope Danzo is 100% a yellow bellied craven coward and every decision he made was objectively the wrong choice every shitty thing was eother directly or indirectly is 100% the fault of Danzo really look at it Orochimaru, pain, the akatsuki, massive lives lost in the 3rd shinobi war, etc etc etc etc literally every decision danzo makes is wrong
@@christophercombs7561 no

Jokes on you...a shinobi life is measured by his/her death :p
LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
@@valeriansage too bad for you shinobi from naruto don't exist then ":p"
Actually Sarutobi was going to be made Hokage no matter what, he said it himself, out of all of them, he was the strongest.
P.S. Fun fact - The girl in the team and the guy with the glasses are the other 2 elders that always argue with Tsunade.
CrazyHynter I hoped Sasuke would go after those two and left the villagers alone
these 2 are the real pusses
Yeah, it infiurates me that everyone on the comments think Tobirama made the choice based only on that scenario, that was the last test but he trained them since they where child, the choice was probably made when Hashirama was alive and they saw that Sarutobi was a genius with great potential and have the will of fire, this scenario of giving his life for his comrades was the final test of his will of fire.
No Curtis, you're missing the point with Danzo. Danzo always looked up to the Second Hokage because he was his teacher and his hero. Danzo wasn't blessed with the same unwavering courage or talent that Hiruzen was, and he resented himself for it. Danzo did truly love the Hidden Leaf village in his own way, and only wanted to prove himself as a sworn protector of the will of fire. Of course he was an asshole and the things he did were underhanded and seemingly selfish, but he did deep down have the best intentions at heart. Over the years Danzo became the way he did to be the Yin to the Third Hokage's Yang. He knew he could never be what Hiruzen was for the village, so he tried his best to be what Hiruzen could not be. Deep down, Danzo really did do everything for the village, and if nothing else he did it to prove to his beloved teacher Tobirama that he was worthy of carrying on his will of fire. Say what you will about Danzo, because he is a massive cunt, but he's also a tragic and relatable character.
Danzo was the most hated character in Naruto history!
Anyone else surprised by the love Danzo is getting in the comment section??
I know, right?
Biggus Greenus I'm gobsmacked tbh.. Of all the characters people would go against Curtis on Danzo is unexpected.. f**king Danzo, always causing trouble 😂
Not surprising tbh I myself do like Danzo
Gazz 1 Same here lol
Sasuke just doesn't care he's a full-blown Villain at this point
U r missing point here. Danzo didn't used Itachi to kill his whole clan to only obtain Sharingans. He needed Itachi cuz Uchicha clan wanted to take over Konoha and that could bring next war in which Konoha would lose. He just used the fact that whole Uchiha clan was eliminated to get more powerful to become strong enough to defend Konoha no matter the cost. He is kinda psychopatic but all in sake for Konoha. And Itachi chose by himself to make that move. Danzo tried to manipulate him about talking shit about Sasuke safety but that was only obvious that if Uchiha would try to take over control Sasuke would be put in danger.
Konoha wouldn't necessarily lose the civil war, but the fact is that it would be extremely costly for both sides.
LunaticThinker They stated if a war were to break out between uchiha and the leaf the other nations would use that opportunity to join in and there would be a another big war
Never knew that, I've only read the manga.
it's still his fault, danzo killed shisui
@@ta724 Not to mention that he was willing to let the Akatsuki destroy the entire village and kill everyone, all in order to rebuild and run the leaf village his way.
See, I LOVE the character of Danzo. Danzo is a product of his age and is honestly one of the most realistic people on the show. People look up to idealists, those with morals, the heroes willing to self sacrifice. But Danzo understands that dead heroes are meaningless and words can only take you so far. As Sarutobi rose to power, Danzo rose above himself and weaponized his cowardice. While Sarutobi went on about peace and love to the people, Danzo sat in darkness and did what had to be done. He assassinated enemies, protected borders and identified every threat. Even going so far as to turn those threats back into assets at times. He did the dirty work nobody else was willing or able to do. All so Sarutobi could rule and the people could live in peace. As much of a dick as Danzo was, everything he did, he did for the village, even if it was wrong. And he died trying to save it
The ends don’t justify the means, the “dirty work nobody else was willing to do” included stuff that did not need to be done at all. Allowing innocents to be killed, brainwashing and killing innocents himself, experimentation, making people suffer, and so much more heinous acts. He caused more trouble and pain for the leaf than any good. Even if the intentions are there, it doesn’t matter. He was doing things the villains were doing but too underhanded to show himself doing it.
I hate Danzo, too.
but in his defense, I do not think that he is a pussy.
it was pretty a pretty human reaction, I wouldn't sacrifice myself, either :D.
Let me say something in defense of Danzo: his character is perfect. Fist of all: he is a legitimate
badass. Second, he does what a ninja should do: he operates in the shadow.
When we watch the anime (or read the manga) we see the world through
the eyes of Naruto, which is basicly a naive boy, so we obviously hate someone like Danzo. But
Danzo is not just a shinobi. He is a politician, he MUST play the long game. He experienced all
the three great ninja wars, he knows how the world works better than Naruto does. Let's be honest:
the idea of exterminating the Uchihas was not wrong. The village was on the verge of a civil war,
he had to be tough. Yes, of course, he exploited the opportunities and took the Sharingans to
become stronger. So what? The whole anime is about getting stronger. He worked with Orochimaru just
like Sasuke did. Yes, he wants to put his hand on the Nine Tails. Ok guys, lets think about it. In
Naruto's world the Tailed Beasts are a sort of nuclear weapon. And who has the control of the nuclear
weapon of the Leaf village? An edgy teen. Oh wow guys. Is he wrong when he desires to control the
Fox? Mmmh, nah, i don't think so.
And lets be honest for the second time: his order (as Hokage) to kill Sasuke is
perfectly understandable. After all Sasuke is a rogue ninja who betrayed his own village.
The idea that the whole world should act according to the feelings of that screaming bitch called
Naruto is just senseless. Yes yes, i know, Naruto wants to do what Jiraya teached him. But this
changes nothing. Naruto is not right because he is the main character. Danzo is not wrong just
because he does not follow the teaching of another shinobi's sensei. In fact the idea that
killing Sasuke could start a circle of revenge is ridicoulous. The Leaf village doesn't give
a damn about Sasuke. Shino, Shikamaru, Sai, Yamato, Choji & Co. don't really care about Sasuke.
Have you ever seen one of these character ever care about Sasuke? No. The only
characters who really want him back are Naruto and Sakura. Stop. What circle of revenge? Just kill
the traitor and let those two cunts cry, they are not the center of the world.
And in the end Danzo shows that he is willing to sacrifice himself for his own village, while
Naruto wants everyone to sacrifice their interests because he wants to have sex with Sasuke.
The idea that Kishimoto wants to give us is obvious: the separation between the good guys and
the bad guys is very unclear. And this message is perfect with Danzo. And when he dies the fans say
.
C'mon guys, seriously?
I'll press F to pay respect.

Sorry for possible mistakes, i'm not a native english speaker.
Boii well said

i agree 100% danzo doesn't deserve all the hate

Me and my friends have daily contests to guess what pic from the ep curtis will use as thumbnail everyone guessed it would be sasuke full evil face today and we all failed
You weren't far off, though. It definitely came down to a screen grab of Sasuke or Danzo. The only reason I went this way is because I was SO appalled at Danzo's cowardice.
I understand that you hate Danzo (I don't like him either), but I feel you just trash on him for everything he says or does for no good reason, especially when you call "Mr. Pissy pants" just because he is scared of death.
Considering he says he does everything for his village and we got to see Itachi did some episodes before, Itachi was truly devoted to his village. Itachi sacrificed himself including his death at the hands of Sasuke. Danzo just didn't do anything (or barely anything), and he mostly stayed in the shadows. I don't like-dislike Itachi (but I dislike Itachi toxic fans, and I liked Kakashi's story better).
@@SSJvegito501 if it wasnt for danzo sasuke would have died as a child
Oswald Of Carim and if it wasnt for danzo then shisui would used kotoamatsukami on everyone which wouldve saved both the village and the uchiha
Jose Lopez no he can use it only on one person at a time otherwise danzo could have used it against sasuke. Remember he said he has to use it on madara and not wasting it on sasuke
Rikudo Senin yea youre right what i meant is that he would’ve used it on fugaku so he would not continue with the coup
It's kinda funny how irredeemable someone is when Curtis decides he doesn't like them.
Jarl Balgruuf hidan was redeemable
@Suhayb Ali Itachi, too... And Nagato... And Buuu... But shhh; that doesn't fit the narrative.
He didn't like Hidan at first
Spaz Boys Comedy u didn't like Itachi at first? I mean I understand the "im not gonna lile him" mindset because he was perceived as evil but it never seemed like you hated him. I recall you calling him badass. Now Nagato yea you hated him at first for sure.
Spaz Boys Comedy you definitely weren't happy with their initial actions or beliefs, but you also didn't dislike the characters either (at least not to the point where literally any action is triggering).
Apologies for the late upload, Gang! Got caught up with some IRL crap! 😡
Spaz Boys Comedy its okay bro, hope you have a good day
Spaz Boys Comedy nah man np ...we are already thankful for DST
I can probably speak only for myself, but I don't mind the late upload, because I wouldn't have had time to watch the episode anyways, but now I do.
No problem Curtis. I do have to admit I kept refreshing your page 😂
Danzo ideas how to protect village wrrent bad.. Just his way was diff form over people... danzo still one of protectors of shinobi world
I actually don't hate danzo. I do like him in a way. I did at the beginning but him sacrificing himself for the village, made it really hard for me to hate him. But rewatching the series also reminded me of the shitty things he's done. Danzo is a tricky character for me cuz I know he wants the best for the village but I think he did also want power for himself. But I think the main reason he was always "pissy-pants" as Curtis calls it (good description btw😂), was more so because he wanted to be like hiruzen. Idk just my thoughts. What do you guys think of danzo?
Collin Schaferling Yup his ending was really cool and shows us that he actually wanted to help the village
He have good objectives, but bad methods. He wasn't just manipulating Itachi, he truly believes that the Uchiha would destroy the village. I think he is not a hero, he is a coward that wants to do the right thing, but just can't cuz his ideology isn't accepted
I'd say Danzo was doing it all for the village, he always took the power for himself because he just couldn't trust others to use that power wisely e.g. Shisui's sharingan. He didn't believe Shisui's kotoamatsukami would work on the uchiha and that jutsu was also a great threat towards the leaf, he just wanted to make sure that kotoamatsukami wouldn't be used against the leaf, and so decided to take it, just like other ninja who do not trust tail beasts and seal them. Danzo strongly believed in "if you want something done right, do it yourself".
If Danzo didnt order Itachi to kill the clan, the Uchiha would've started their coup which would have gone one of two ways. One- The Uchiha succeed after a bloody coup, decimating the village leaving it open for another village to attack. Two- The Coup fails and is still extremely bloody and leaves the village open to an attack.
No. The reason people hate Danzo isn't because he couldn't muster up the courage to basically go commit suicide, nobody can blame him for doing that. Being unwilling to give up your own life is something that shouldn't ever be considered a bad thing. It's a basic survival instinct.
The reason people *do* hate him is because of what he did afterwards. Now i know you're already aware about making Itachi kill his clan and then afterwards stealing their eyes and working with Orochimaru to gain their power, or maybe the lesser known facts that he was responsible for Naruto being always alone and for Nagato's pain. However there is one more thing he did that involves Shisui that was hinted at during this episode, but never fully explained.
Shisui was known as the greatest genjutsu user ever, because his Mangekyou's ability, Kotoamatsukami was able to completely rewrite a persons thoughts on something permanently. For example you could convince someone to serve you forever, or convince another person to kill everyone they know etc etc.
The original plan to stop the Uchiha coup was for Shisui to use the Kotoamatsukami on the entire clan and convince them to work with the Leaf. However Danzo fearing that Shisui was going to use it against him and wanting it's power for himself, tricked Shisui into a meeting and stole one of his eyes, but Shisui escaped with the other, and later committed suicide so that Itachi could awaken his own Mangekyou.
So basically, the entire Uchiha massacre could've been avoided had Danzo not been a piece of shit. Pain's attack could've been avoided as well.
And before anybody starts screaming SPOILERS!!!!, no it's *not* spoilers. This was only full revealed in one of the games, or partially in one of the fillers which Curtis skips. So don't crucify me.
Lewd Angel
I agree
Lewd Angel Very well put!! Hope he sees this comment :)
I always hear people say that had he let Shisui use the genjutsu on the clan that it would have solved everything. I mean, how guaranteed was this plan to be successful? What if future generations of Uchiha decide to rise up again? Shisui only has so many eyes and a decade in between each use. I mean, I love the series but what I love more are the gray characters, and Danzo is one hell of a gray character.
He uses underhanded schemes but you saw how his and the village elders decided that extermination was the better option, but they didn't kill ever Uchiha and that lead to problems later on for the village. I can't see how letting Shisui use his jutsu would solve the problem 100%. There was no certainty and instead of the issues we have now, it would have been something different.
And let's not forget, there were problems with people hating on the Uchiha as a clan just because of the Police Force and tension would still arise.
My only question is, if it was clarified in databooks or the series, how long Shisui's Kotoamatsukami lasts? Because making every Uchiha decide to not start a coup and work with the Leaf is a tall order, and if the effects were permanent, then I can see that somewhat being a choice to go with...just...realistically, would I trust it? Would Danzo and the others trust it? Nah. Still, it's a harsh ninja world filled with war and battles and tough decisions. This is why I get behind Danzo rather than Naruto and his Talk no Jutsu.
I see where you are coming from, but you have to remember Danzos character. As established here, hes a coward. He weaponized his cowardice into paranoia for the sake of the village. While Sarutobi took risks, made friends with enemies, trusted people to be good, Danzo was paranoid for the sake of the village, killed opponents, wiped out threats and eliminated risks before Sarutobi could take them. If there was even a hint or thought in his mind that Shisui would not go through with the plan Danzo was going to take that into account and act on it. In that paranoia of "the uchiha are about to attack" would you hedge your bets on an uchiha with amazing power , still loyal to the clan, to use it in your favor? Or would it be safer to take that power and use it yourself? Danzo always went safer. The only reason he trusted Itachi was that he knew Itachi valued the village over family so long as his brother was safe, and so he pressed that button to test Itachis loyalty before the order was given.
only games and filler? not really canon then. Unless itachi really did use sharingan to cook sasuke eggs.
Jiraya: "The true measure of shinobi is not how he lives but how he dies..."
Itachi: "We don't know what kind of people we truly are until the moment before our deaths. As death comes to embrace you, you will realize what you are."
It might have been at this point inevitable that he'd die, but he still tried to take out the two biggest threats to the Leaf and Shinobi world. He was a true shinobi of the Leaf. And before somebody says I'm defending him, he is 4th on my personal list of most hated fictional characters. I'm just stating a fact.
This parts always great for reactors when he goes right through his teammate to get danzo
Curtis! We know you hate Danzo as a person, but what are your overall thoughts on him as an antagonist?
As an antagonist he was brilliantly done! Things like the hiding out during Pain's invasion is the type of stuff that really draws out hatred for a character, and leads to a perfect antagonist.
+Spaz Boys Comedy One of the longest-lasting ones, too. This fight has really been building up from the moment you met Danzo.
Speaking of long-lasting antagonists, Kabuto out-lived Danzo.
Fuck Danzo >:v
So in the end, am I the only one who likes Danzo? I can't be the only person, right?
Connor Wood what about poor shisui ??? Oh no ! I don't hate danzo a lot but I will never like him ...
danzo is the best bro, i so much want that he can somehow survive that fight
@@cane3916 Shisui died for goods in future and stop war between uchihas, gave itachi an road to walk awakes his mangekyou saringan, gave him mangekyou saringan even after death in reanimation jutsu he could use shisui eye for disable to be control from kabuto n use kabuto to stip reanimation jutsu which helps in war a lot. If danzo wouldnot have taken his eye things would go easy as he planed to use mangekyou on uchiha, Any way Shisui was gonna die he died saving wold man
I like parts of him and dislike others.
I like Danzo too, just because he has an interesting personality
Danzo was a true ninja to the end. And that's not me respecting him, at all.
Just like a true ninja, he operated in the shadows.
Like a true ninja, his main weapon was information, stealth and backstabbing, like he did to Shisui, to the Uchiha, to Hiruzen more than once, tried to do to Orochimaru and did to Tsunade, then tried and failed a last time to do it against the 5 Kage.
Like a true ninja he was a coward, not a warrior. Yes, some ninja knew how to fight but getting away with their life and stolen intel was the #1 priority on their list.
And it is exactly because of being a true ninja that Danzo was such a piece of shit.
Naruto is a romanticized and fantasized story, where Ninja is a profession of true warriors who hold their honor high up and fight in all out wars to protect their land. This adds characteristics like pacifism, friendship, honor, nobility, self sacrifice, compassion and understanding for one's enemy; characteristics that, while I'm sure many ninja *had* in real life, really wasn't necessary or even desirable for their profession.
Danzo seems to have been based on One Piece's Marshal D. Teach, who was created about 5 years before Danzo was. The same we can say about ninjas in Naruto can be said about pirates in One Piece: there, pirates don't usually plunder, hardly any of them rape, murder is always so low on their list of priorities that most of them would rather make fun of a downed enemy than kill them. In One Piece, just like in Naruto, being a pirate is romanticized to being a person who's always looking for freedom and breaking free of the shackles of the tyrannical World Government.
But in the whole world of One Piece there is a character that is 100% a pirate. He has murdered his way to his powers, mutinied against his crew and captain, killed his former crew mates, pillages around like a motherfucker and if you don't think he raped Bonny like a hundred times you need to read some chapters again.
In a show about pirates, he's the only "real world pirate" around. Just like in a show about ninja, Danzo is the only "real ninja around".
*AND THAT IS WHY THEY ARE VILLAINS*
Real pirates didn't put their friends above everything else; they didn't set sail because of dreams of finding exotic and fun islands, and didn't stop every time they found a fascist government to kick the governor's ass and give the land a taste of their freedom. *Those* redefined pirates are the ones that are likable in One Piece.
Just as so, ninja didn't live for honor. They didn't seek respect from their peers and laid their lives down for their friends, they didn't worry about the future ninja generations and didn't strive for improving their fighting skills as a badge of pride. *Those* are the redefined ninja are the ones that are likable in Naruto.
Danzo was a true ninja to the end. He murdered, cheated, killed literally dozens of people to forward his political power just a little bit, he plotted to turn family against family with false information and assassinating key members, then took the spoils of the massacre to increase his own power. He never fought when victory wasn't 100% a certainty or when backed to a corner, he lied constantly, he betrayed his friends for more power and information and in the end he ran away until being cornered, and only then killed himself to avoid information and power being taken by his enemy.
Danzo was a *true ninja* to the end. That definitely doesn't make him a good person, in fact I myself consider him the second most evil character of the Naruto Universe (haven't read Boruto so maybe he gets further down). But two things you can always say about him: he was a true ninja, and he was one of the best written characters of this show.
Mordirit
I agree.
Danzo's death and his last thoughts + the music always give me goosebumps! Great character! Danzo WAS a coward. but then his ninja way became the coolest of all: a true ninja must sacrifice himself for his village. And that's what he does. He was willing to fight both Sasuke and Tobi for Konoha and die in the fight.
I still think it's weird to call someone a coward because they don't want to commit suicide... which is true for like 90% of our species.
99,99%. But they are ninjas and it's their job to risk their lifes.
It's just the scenario at the time, they were still in the midst of battle and young individuals and sometimes nerves and anxiety and fear overtake them. It wasn't that Danzo didn't want to do it, it was that his body couldn't let him speak up, and when his strength came back he was finally able to voice his intentions.
It always was a competition with him and Hiruzen, but he was a legit ninja with the ninja ideals.
Pika Pika no one else volunteered
Yeah, the music and his thoughts -> always give me goosebumps! ^_^
This fight overall is the most hilarious part of the show for me.
All the way up to this point, the show has been trying its hardest to make Danzo as hateable as humanly possible. However, in this fight, pretty much every thing he says to Sasuke is completely on point.
Yes, being a Ninja IS about toiling in the shadows, doing shady stuff to benefit your master. It's not supposed to be this noble and heroic affair all the protagonists are treating it as.
And yes indeed, Sasuke is an immature brat switching from one tempter tantrum to the next whenever the plot needs him to switch allegiances
Danzo was kind a Hokage in the darkness, always in the easy way... he played all for the village, without taking any consideration... not a villain, not a good guy, just Danzo...
idc what anyone says, i still think danzo was a great character,i like him more than sakura LOL
Agreed on him being a great character for the story. The fact that he's an antagonist and pretty much everybody hates him is a solid indicator that he's a good, well-written character... Still a douchebag, though!
Oh boy you mentioned the name. Sooner or later her defenders will be succing the life out of you .
Snitch Hinata is far worse.
Snitch Honestly I feel bad for Danzo. He spent all his life trying not to be a bitch, yet that's exactly how he lived and died his entire adulthood.
Spaz Wolvie wow its his opinion. He could like choji more than sakura and still be legit
Danzo is a manipulative coward. Short and simple. At least with his dying breath he tried doing the right thing. But that doesn't undo the horrible things he did in his lifetime.
But it does for Nagato?
Richard Ides yes because the good thing nagato did at the end actually succeeded and reversed a ton of damage he caused.
Like killing jiraiya sensei? xD
Hypocrisy at its peak, shall i say !
Richard Ides no where in my comment do I mention Nagato or my ideas on the character. Focus.
Danzo and Nagato were too different as characters.
Danzo kinda took from the second hokage since the second hokage was the one who segegrated the Uchiha and the Hidden Leaf just to protect the leaf even though that’s kinda the reason there was a revolt kinda like Danzo who does more bad than good for the Hidden Leaf
I only wanted what's best for the village.
GTFO
Fuck you Danzo lol
Danzo The Real Sixth Hokage yea you kil all of the uchiha just to save the village
madara uchiha yeah actually
Lmfao 😂😂😂
TOBIRAMA SENJU , one of my favorite characters in naruto 🔥👌
yeah just what I was thinking. there's so little Tobirama in this show you gotta cherrish every moment.
TOBIRAMYTHO my FAVORITE naruto Character.... he's the badassest one
brown pewdiepie for me no !
Hashirama is greater
Shisui is my favorite.
Why? He was one of the worst Hokage.
4:29 wasn't using earphones today so my family thought i was watching hentai 😂😂
brown pewdiepie your family knows about hentai 😂...🤔
It´s easier to explain watching hentai than a older bald guy reacting to an animated redhead bitten by a psycho
they hear one scream and think its hentai? your familie is perverted
The voice of danzo in the flashback was the same voice of kidomaru from the sound ninja 4. Interesting...
It was alwaso the voice of the first hokage
Danzo is a great character to hate
What is the jutsu at the end:
The reverse tetragram jutsu of danzo at the end was so dangerous because everything the black sphere comes in contact with will be sucked in Danzos corpse and will inevitably be sealed. Just to answer the question, why madara was so scared of this.
Thats why there was no Explosion sounds and why the bridgeparts disappeared
Danzo was a hero. He spent the rest of his life helping his freind form the shadows and being the " foundation " of his rule. Even though they disagree on many things he was the third hogages true friend.
He sacrificed him self for the village just like his freind did.
Ivan Voronov yes, he was the third Hokage's friend. That's why he constantly plotted against him and tried to kill him. He was such a good guy.
Francisco Carbajal if he truly wanted to kill the third then the third would have got rid off him.
He was the best freind the third had because he kept his hands clean. He made the uchiha decision for him because he knew that the third could not oor if he could would be plauged by guilt.
He eliminated the threats the third could not and kept the village alive
He used Yammato and other nija to kill him once. I believe, if I'm not mistaken, that he supported Orochimaru during the chuuning exam. He did try to kill him. I actually think he's a really good character in the sense that he has people discussing if he was a good or bad guy. I can see some good qualities in him, but overall I think he is more of a villain.
He pretty much caused all the pain in Naruto and Sasuke's lives. He told everyone that Naruto had the nine tails even though it was supposed to be a secret and he ordered Itachi to kill his family making Sasuke the way that he is. He took Shisui's eye and worked with Orochimaru. This guy was no hero because even without him the village still survived.
Francisco Carbajal if you are referring to the kakshi story I am not sure that Is cannon, (maybe wrong) danzo would never support orachimaru during the chunin exams because he was invading the village with foreign armies.
Danzo protects the village at all costs. The third New about yamato yet never did anything to danzo. Therefore it was either not serious or not canon.
The one thing Danzo never had or understood in its entirety was the Will of Fire. He perverted it as an excuse to hide his true cowardice. Shame, then some of the tragedies and problems would have never happened had he only the Will of Fire. You will not be missed, Danzo Shimura.
I am proud of you remembering Shisuis name. But you have to admit we hammered the "remember his name!!!"-thing a lot in the comments of the videos and streams XD
danzo destroying himself and shisui's eye was the smartest decision he ever made, can you imagine if tobi got his hands on shisui's sharingan.
And Karin thought Sasuke was gonna take her picture.
I will never forget Karin's PAIN.😂
soundtrack so good, even danzo's death seems sad
I just gotta day how much I love how he actually looks into the camera when he talks to you. Annoys me so much when you tubers look at the little screen on the side of their camera to look at themselves.
I don’t think I’ll ever find a better TH-camr. Awesome shit man I’m loving the series!
The hate for Danzo is not much so for his cowardice, but for his treatment to the Uchiha. Uchiha fanboys are where majority of the hate comes from (the ones you see in the comments). The real hatred for Danzo is presented in future episodes. I think Danzo is a well written villain.
Covenant Enforcer well the reason i hate him in particular is that he is presented as an anti hero or a shadow hokage but most of his actions made things worse and i could possibly say that his only good action was to kill himself so obito didnt get shisuis eye but other than that he is just power hunger who doesnt care whats most important about a village which is its people.
Danzo is no coward, an old man facing "Madara" and sasuke at the same time
Danzo was the shadow of Konoha just like Sasuke now...
I could have sworn there was pinned comment from Curtis addressing people's disagreement about Danzo........ must have imagined it.....
Danzo overcame his fear of death to protect the village, hardly a pussy :p
He went out like a true warrior giving his own life to destroy the eye inside him and to attempt to kill Sasuke and Tobi.
Great episode!! One of the best.
I like danzo more than sasuke
I like everybody over Sasuke..... except Sakura (not kidding)..
Anyway Danzo is a great character,as much as I loved the 3d hokage,he was to kind to rule over the village alone,so Danzo was a perfect contrast for him.
super hot fire really 😂
super hot fire that s insane if you compare that nasty bitch " disgrace for the uzumaki " who wanted to rap , lick ans steal everything he had ...even the umbilical cor of his wife 😂😂 to sakura (who matured a lot to the point she wanted to kill him preffering Naruto & knonha over her love ) or naruto who wanted to save sasuke from the darkness. ....that explains volumes
Smh
Btw I don't hate d anzo a lot but i hated the way he tortured shisui ....
You likely feel that way because you misunderstand him. Here's a summary I made about his character.
imgur.com/a/ncICG
I do too.
I know these specific videos are relatively old, but I just stumbled upon your channel the other day and I gotta say I love watching your reactions. It's nice to go through the emotional rollercoaster with someone who appreciates the story telling of shows like this. Keep on keeping on, I'll be subscribing to your patreon soon!
Come on, Curtis. Danzo being a coward was the whole point. There are plenty of characters in Naruto who are borderline suicidal, and treat suicidal missions like a no-biggie. Danzo did what he thought was right in spite of his own craven nature. Ever heard saying "True courage is not absence of fear, but ability to act in spite of fear"? He feels like the only human character in the sea of trope collages. Thats why people tend to play devil's advocate for him.
I was waighting this episode about 9 months......and he hust ignored Karin's death. Well played, curtis
Danzo was not a villain in my eyes. Everything he did was to better the Hidden Leaf village in the long run.
yes but this dude here dont undestand that
Austin Tyler i now man
Most of the bad things that happened in the show were because of Danzo so stfu
@@itzben499 tf is you gonna do pussy?
@@itzben499 oh that's right nothing
If nothing else, Danzo and Hiruzen form another of the tragic yin/yang duos of this series.
also Can you really blame him for being scared :P Keep up the great reactions!
Not pictured in Danzo's flashback: That one time he tried to have Hiruzen assassinated so he could become Hokage a few years sooner, which Hiruzen forgave him for since they were besties.
You're a real class act, Danzo.
Was that anime filler?
u know in the end i actually cared a little about danzo, thats one of the best things about naruto u always come to care for or atleast understand their reasons for why they are the way they are
Imagine if Dan o actually used shisuis eye on obito
It's this very battle that showed how Sasuke despite how he may act, has the best tactical mind and best analytical skills in the series during while in the heat of combat. His intellect even surpasses shikamru's who is a genius strategist but needs time in order to come up with a strategy to defeat his opponent while Sasuke can observe, analyze, and then strategize all while in the fast pases heed off battle which is what he did with Danzo and for that Sasuke is a GOAT
Joe hokage was literally hokage his entire life lol what a legend
The entire series is so unique that we get to see different opinions and ways and teachings in achieving peace.
I was hoping you would be giving a few good words about Danzo because you know, Konoha would have long been destroyed after the death of The Second if it were not for Danzo's undermining nation after nation.
The irony of the 2nd Hokage's death is that all his jutsu are made for being outnumbered.
You only remembered Shisui because we mention him almost every single livestream lol
Every thing Danzo did was correct from the villages point of view, he served it until death and he served it well.
His job was to hunt rogue ninja, he did that with the anbu blackops, he also sniffed out a coup d'etate and quenched it, taking his enemies powers as a trophy and as a weapon.
He kept the village running from the shadows, did all the dirty work, he also tried to contain the leaf's greatest weapon (Naruto) yet failed due to not seeing eye to eye with his detractors.
Danzo as a character has so much dept to him than just good and evil, and the author portrayed it at the end for everyone who didn't grasp it. Danzo was the Yang to the Yin, he died a patriot and a hero. Rest in anime peace.
Why does younger Danzo sound like hashirama
If I were in Karin circumstances I will fucking Rip Sauske here using those Uzumaki chains
Spaz Boys Comedy Danzo makes Itachi kill the woman he loves and she felt the same towards Itachi. Which is another reason why people hate Danzo
I love that moment with Lord 2nd, he proposed a situation and the obvious answer was for him out of all of them to sacrifice his own life to protect the young like so many other Shinobi have throughout the series, but he proposed this situation as a test to his pupils under him, who ever was also willing to give up their life to protect others was also worthy of becoming his successor. Danzo failed while Hiruzen volunteered and in doing so proved to Tobirama he was worthy of becoming a Hokage knowing he had it in him to protect more then just himself when it came down to it and in the end Hiruzen did even under overwhelming circumstances.
Danzo no matter what his goal was in the end still put himself first before the village, thinking of only how he could further his own power and roll in the village rather then what he could do to protect it along with everyone else, by the end they try and make you feel sorry for him, realising what happened to him and how he tried to be Hiruzens foundation but in the end he still failed to realise what his roll as an elder of the village should be, to protect the future generation. He could of used a lesson from Asuma Sensei lol.
I dont think of Danzo as an antagonist but someone who did wrong while trying to protect the leave at what ever it takes. It was his view of how to protect the leave.
What I like about Danzo everything he did is because he truly believed everything he was doing was for the good of the village. Even to the end his only thought was for the village.
It's a ritual to watch his video reaction, I'm on it since the Kakuzu arc lol
danzo is the best shinobi period.he wanted to become hokage because no one other than him had these strong ideals that precede emotion. esp since the villege was brought up in the recent years ny sarutobi's teachings (one of the things danzo always lamented)
danzo is a very realistic character to me.. even if he appears as a villain, its still caused by his drive to protect what he needs to
That phantom of the opera quote tho
This comment section must be where the entire Danzo fan base has their meetings lmao. Never in my life have I seen any support for Danzo until reading these comments.
I know right. You can’t humanise Danzo ffs 😂 he practical to committed genocide through itachi. Indirectly started the fourth ninja war. If he never forced Kabuto to loss his orphan mother then he never would’ve been groomed by orochimaru and woudlnt have reanimated anyone
Danzo was going to make Konoha great again. You Itachi fan boys don't understand crap.
@@kronniichiwa9909 I didn't even mention Itachi
Kakuzu [Earth Grudge Fear] I don’t even like Itachi all that much and I still think Danzo is a prick
holy crap, watching naruto cured your bad memory, is it really that simple ?
dude are we just not gonna talk about how Danzo got the last minute save ? like yeah he didn't do anything heroic like Itachi or something, but no matter how twisted and sociopathic and corrupt he became he really wanted the best for Konoha ... even if that means controlling it in a totalitarian regime ... and most importantly, even tho he hated Hiruzen for being better than him, he still respected and even admired him very very much, and recognized his talent and power ... overall w very realistic character, not just plain evil ... that flashback certainly wasn't enough to make me like him, but it was enough to make me hate him less, and even feel sympathy for a minute ...
U can say about Danzo whatever u want, but in the end he went out like a boss.
Curtis, I think you were too harsh on Danzo when you called him a p*ssy. Is everyone a p*ssy who doesn't want to take on a suicide mission? And think about it: He had to survive that mission if he wanted to become Hokage. You can't become one if you're dead.
*This Wall is GRAFFITI AREA approved by Konohagakure No Sato*
I dont know why but its funny to me lol
Sasuke is pure evil right now.
Danzo always felt he couldn't go far enough, overcompensating for his crippling fear of death. A lifelong rival of the third hokage, he constantly felt that peace and demilitarization and diplomacy were weakening the village. Danzo spent his entire life making connections and networks to strengthen the leaf and push himself and other military leaders into political power. It came to a head when the third hokage died to Orochimaru in a military assault, and instead of a military leader, they choose a doctor who is practically a pacifist compared to the third hokage. Danzo and Root decided that there was no greater way to help the leaf village than to get Tsunade fired and Danzo replacing her.
He thought he was killing himself to protect the leaf but if he opened his old geezer eyes he would notice that he is just destroying it.
And this is why I fucking love Danzo. He's a coward, he knows it, he hates it. What's more, basically all he does for the rest of his life was heavily influenced by Tobirama (2nd Hokage)'s last words to him.
In many ways, Danzo is to Hiruzen (3rd Hokage) what Tobirama (2nd) was to Hashirama (1st). Hiruzen and Hashirama saw love, understanding, and diplomacy as the best way to save the world. Meanwhile, Tobirama and Danzo saw intrique, decete, and control as the way to protect it.
The difference lies here: Tobirama was strong and would take on anything in the open; Danzo was a cowerd who had to work in the shadows.
They both held their "light" (Hashirama/Hiruzen) grounded in reality. They were the *root* that nourished the tree on which the leaves waved in the wind. At the same time, their partners acted to lift them up and act as a check.
The problem, in both cases, is that they went too far. Danzo moreso than Tobirama. Danzo's actions garunteed the Uchiha masacre (though he's not necessarily wrong in saying it could not be avoided, and he didn't cause the coup itself) and bred the Akatsuki. He also harbored and aided Orochimaru, enabling him. Tobirama, on the other hand, basically caused the 2nd Great Ninja War through his imperialist policies and bull-headedness. He also created the reanimation jutsu that Orochimaru had taken into his own. And that's just what I know, who's to say there isn't more? And that's just talking heat we know so far.
That's why I love his last words. He tells Saru (3rd) to be the Hokage and lead, and tells Danzo to be the ground, to be the Tobirama to Hiruzen's Hashirama. And Danzo just takes it too far.
I'll cut off here, since this comment is getting long, but you get my point I'm sure.
Danzo... the coward? He sacrificed his own life to take out the two greatest threats to the Leaf village. You completely misinterpreted that flashback because of your bias. It's called character development. He did what he couldn't do before. You also forgot the biggest reason Danzo had Itachi kill the Uchiha was to stop the coup. They were going to try to destroy the Leaf. Taking the sharingans was just a happy consequence for him.
Seriously, Danzo could have been an amazing character portraying the nature of shinobi, but instead he just became the thing to blame everything bad that ever happens on.
Granted, I know how you are at this point. You just say dumb shit on purpose to piss us all off. Guess it worked on me this time lol you got me.
But if it weren’t for Danzo, Shisui Uchiha would have stopped the coup himself and avoided the entire massacre. But Danzo stopped Shisui and he was supposed to give him a chance before they went with Itachi slaughtering them all. Danzo might have had the best interests for the village, but he ultimately became what wasn’t the best for the village. He had to go, but he was under his own idea that he was what was best, when in truth, he became the biggest threat for the Leaf.
he only sacrificed his life here because he was dead either way
Exactly, like everything he did was for the Hidden Leaf. The end outweighed the means for Danzo. The shinobi world is cruel and is the reason for every villain in the series but for some reason only Danzo is truly hated.
There's no way all those Sharingan weren't a motivator though. He sacrificed his life, sure, but he completely failed at taking them out. And he only sacrificed it after trying to run away like a bleeding bitch. Only when cornered like a rat did he try to salvage something resembling a noble ending... and he failed at doing anything with his sacrifice. The 2nd and 3rd Hokages at least did something with theirs. Danzo's "sacrifice" just saved him from anymore pain he may have ended up suffering at Madara and Sasuke's hands - and he only did it when he was absolutely fucked and cornered. His first instinct was to RUN AWAY, just like when he was a kid. I don't see the character development.
ACGearsandArms Why would Danzo trust Shisui, an Uchiha, to stop the Uchiha? Hell, why would he trust anyone with the kind of power Shisui had? This is the shinobi world. The morals of that world and ours are very different. And if you look back, the Uchiha have proven time and time again to ve untrustworthy.
I despise Danzo but his end was quite heroic.
Madara didn’t need to step in really, Sasuke was always in control of the battle.
Danzo made the ultimate mistake that Sasuke wouldn’t shoot through Karin to kill him, and Karin made the mistake that Sasuke cared for her safety over Danzo’s death.
We get a snippet of Danzo’s past, his tutelage under Tobirama, the second Hokage and Hashirama’s brother, and his rivalry with Hiruzen, the Third Hokage, which he still held a grudge towards even up to his death.
But instead of dying by Madara’s hand, Danzo kills himself trying to take them with him, which of course goes as well as Deidara’s attempt. But now the Bastard’s dead, although his bastardy lives on
He didn't only killed himself to try and kill Madara. The right eye he stole from Sishui is VERY powerful and the last thing he wanted was for it to fall into Madara's hand. The seal he used to kill himself will make sure Madara doesn't get to pick this eye from Danzo.
LunaticThinker that part was clear though since Madara said ‘I’d be taking Shisui’s eye’
i mean... as soon as shisui's eye came back online, danzo could've literally beat sasuke anytime he wanted because kotoamatsukami is unstoppable but he didn't because then his eye would be on cooldown and he'd be powerless against madara
That’s not Madara it’s obito pretending to be him in order to launch the infinite tsukyomi and start the 4th great shinobi war 👍
bruh we know but delete your comment because you're spoiling it for future episodes unless you're trying to be a dick in which case DONT READ THIS THREAD! SPOILERS
The issue with Danzo is that, at the very end, he's a character that could exist and makes sense to exist, especially in this context of warring ninja states. In the idealistic world of Naruto, what he does seems worse than it actually is (it's still deplorable) but he's basically like...one of the only true (ninja) of the series in terms of his method.
You know what I always thought? Danzo, though unsuccessfully, was trying to be a leader like the Second Hokage Tobirama, the only man he ever truly respected as a superior. He thought that Tobirama was everything a Hokage should be, kind and gentle, strong and inspiring, yet capable of becoming hard-hearted when needed, unlike Hiruzen who couldn't bring himself to that. Danzo believed that from Hiruzen to Minato and Tsunade, the Hokages were too soft compared to the 1st and 2nd. So in his own way, Danzo was trying to be like his old teacher, but went too far and ended up being ridiculed and scrutinized for it.
Madara helped Sasuke in his last fight with his Kamui. You might've missed that.
as much as I dislike Danzo I felt some empathy at the end
Danzo was ruthless, cruel and he used ninja like tools. One of the rare REAL assholes in this show. A lot more realistic character than most in the entire Narutoverse. Especially considering what Kakashi said about ninja in really early Naruto.
You see the thing about Kishimoto is his writing style is..interesting. Like honestly his story is about forgiving the darkness in one's soul, if not just forgiving in general. You can't deny the fact that when you watch Naruto..that even the most hideous, dirty and most messed up antagonists are still human.
I’m going to be honest, as much as I hate Danzo, his last speech at the very end, I feel a little bit bad for him. A little.
4:42 Yep Karin is handy... a healer, a sensory-type who can find enemies before they find you, and one who makes enemies believe they have one last, infallible option for survival. 😂😭
Love your work curtis!
I hope Danzo is able to look upon the living and realize that no one really cares about his “noble sacrifice” and actually is happy the guy is dead
Japanese version of Tobirama is way more epic
To be honest i really was sad when many of the villains in naruto died. Eventhough when introduced for the first time as ruthless shinobi........the past and the lives of various villains like itachi, pain, gaara all changed our first impressions about them. For some reason we were able to relate to them in a good manner.
But for danzo it just never felt that way. For some reason i was more happy rather than sad that danzo died. Maybe its because i felt that most of the characters tragic past was somehow influenced by danzo .
