Naruto features a lot of deaths more deaths than your average shown in enemy while characters can come back to life it is rare there's no wish-granting dragon here that'll bring your friends back to life deaths in Naruto can run the gambit between extremely satisfying to heartbreakingly sad today we'll be looking at just a few of those characters in Naruto who deserve to die and a few we would much rather have around we'll begin with the ones who deserve to die as these are just so satisfying [Music] Danzo is what writers would call a Machiavellian character someone who has good intentions to rule over a people as effectively as possible but will employ immoral and shady tactics to do so in short Danzo Shimura embodies the phrase the end justifies the means Danzo preferred to do his dealings in darkness and go behind the Hokage is back in order to protect the village in his own way while he would be involved in super-dead down Zoe's decisions have affected the history of the leaf village for years when tensions rose and a coup was planned by the Uchiha Danzo took matters into his own hands the coup is to be stopped with diplomacy and one prominent member of the you cheok Len Shi Tsui proposed the plan to the village Danzo instead stole one of Shi Suey's eyes to ensure the villages safety or so he said perhaps his biggest crime though and why we're glad to be rid of him is that he ultimately convinced Itachi Uchiha to slaughter his clan manipulative shady and always acting on his own perceived interests Danzo is a figure the village is better off without black zetsu is a being that seemed inevitable no matter how badly we wanted them not to exist formed as a physical manifestation of Princess Kaguya at Satsuki's will and formed after she was sealed by her two sons hagoromo and hemara black zetsu is just one half of the Akatsuki member known as zetsu black zetsu is the one largely responsible for the feud between Indra and Asura they would meet with Indra and goad him with praise and adulation 'he's pushing indra to pursue more and more power enough to rival the sage of six paths this feud would last for generations and every step of the way black zetsu would be behind the scenes with their true intentions secret to everyone in short black zetsu is a being of pure evil and malice due to black sets whose creation many people lost their lives not all of them from the good guys side black zetsu was more of a force of nature than a being with set motivations with their only true loyalty being to Kaguya which makes sense since they came from her and whatnot do we even need to go into why this snake needed to die since the original Naruto all the way back in the Chunin exams Orochimaru was plotting his evil schemes the dude has a laundry list of crimes that would make his death more than justifiable for starters he was responsible for the attack on the leaf village during the Chunin exams killing the sand villages Kazakh Agha and taking his place to kill the Third Hokage his lifelong ambition of immortality led him down a dark road using jutsu that would be a taboo for most ninja and how can we forget his entire plot to manipulate Sasuke into leaving his village with a great promise of power and preying on Sasuke's thirst for revenge Orochimaru took Sasuke away from his friends in his village of course he intended to take Sasuke's body for his own to extend his own life of course that backfired on him and Sasuke showed that he was using Orochimaru as much as Orochimaru was using him Sasuke absorbs the snake man good riddance a fitting end to a villain like Orochimaru qidan is what we call one sick monster we would use more apt language but we're trying to avoid due monetization hidan was one of the newer members of the Akatsuki and was a defector from Yuga quarry he dawn craved immortality and instead of snatching bodies like Orochimaru Keaton instead worshipped a deity named Joshi this granted hidan immortality but in order to keep this gift he needed to make human sacrifices one of his more insidious tricks is his Zhi Shan ritual which links him and his opponent any damage done to him is done to the linked person coupled with his immortality this creates a deadly scenario for his opponents unfortunately Asuma fell victim to the curse not by being struck down himself but when after being linked he down cut himself in his vital organs with his own sight if killing ASIMO wasn't enough to put this scumbag on the list the fact that he attained his powers by slaughtering people in his own village should be enough for us to completely be done with this character immortality or not everyone is glad he's dead to end our list of scumbags who deserve to die we have Raza an easy contender for worst dad of the decade Raza was gaara's father and the fourth Kazakh oggi of the sand while he was in charge of the Sand Village he made some questionable decisions that might make Danzo think twice faced with his villages extinction Raza has to make one of the toughest decisions a father could make he had the shukaku the one tailed beast sealed into Gaara his youngest son in order to make his village more sustainable he focused almost exclusively on strengthening the villages ninja and that also meant making Gaara into a living weapon to show off the strength of the Sand Village like Naruto Gaara was ostracized by others in the village despite being the Kazakh Aggies son Gaara was isolated and molded by Raza to be nothing but a vessel for the one tailed beast whether the reasons were good or not Raza made even more rash decisions the one that leads to his death was teaming up with Orochimaru to attack the leaf filly now that we've gotten the scumbags out of the way let's now focus on some characters we dearly miss and wish were still with us starting off this section we have Minato & Kushina Naruto's parents Minato was the fourth Hokage of the hidden leaf village and the one who sacrificed himself to save said village from the nine tailed fox we all know the story by now what we later learned in Shibu den however was that the fourth Hokage was Naruto's dad and his mother Kushina was the last remaining member of the yuzu machi clan not only were these two caring and loving people who gave their lives to defend their village but they also did what they could to protect their son I mean talk about survivor's guilt Naruto holds the beast that nearly threatened to destroy the leaf village and the people who gave their lives to make sure it didn't happen to his own folks we wish they were alive in the show if only so Naruto can have a little bit of closure and to see his parents in the flesh just once the tragedy of Itachi Uchiha is just that a sad and long tale of betrayal and sadness at first we had nothing but contempt for Sasuke's older brother for what he did he slaughtered the entire Uchiha clan a cool bro with Sasuke is the only survivor he dedicated his life to killing his older brother it was later revealed to everyone that Itachi was compelled to slaughter his claim he was manipulated by Danzo to do it in order to stop the you chia clan from staging a coup against the leaf village it was a mistake a big one that Itachi regretted for the rest his life more than that though Itachi wanted to keep the truth from Sasuke about the Uchiha Massacre instead Itachi created this version of himself that was a cold soulless murderer with no love for his brother all to protect him from the truth in fact the Itachi's plan was for sasuke to eventually kill him so that he could be hailed as a hero Itachi was a gifted ninja that was used by wicked yet well-meaning people not since Rock Lee did we meet a more endearing and lovable character Neji Hyuga was a gifted ninja and a fearless leader who worked hard for his teammates and his village while he might appear cold and stoic in the beginning it was just a Hugo way it wouldn't be until he fought Naruto that he realized he could actually choose for himself before the Hyuga is believed one could not change their fate that if you were destined to be a failure you would always be a failure despite his great skill and focus Neji was born to a lesser branch of the Hyuga clan and would never be head of the family in the fourth shinobi war Neji gave His life to protect Naruto his death was brutal and ultimately unnecessary such a powerful ally should not have to be killed so needlessly not what he had so much more to do even though his death was tragic it was seen as a liberating choice for a ninja he could finally see what it really meant to die in order to protect someone Naruto really has a knack for having their bad guys turned out to be misled good guys Obito like Itachi has a complicated history he was thought to have died during the third shinobi war due to a cave-in he passed his Sharingan to Kakashi as a final gesture in reality he was saved by moderate Jia and to make a long story short was disillusioned into helping Madara create an ideal world the list of sins Obito is committed rivals that have Itachi's with him starting the fourth shinobi war being arguably the worst offense this war would take the lives of many shinobi including Neji however once Obito had a change of heart he ended up sacrificing himself in order to save Naruto and Sasuke against the true villain Kaguya veto took responsibility for his actions and tried to atone by helping Naruto and the others though Obito's actions however dark they were eventually led to the shinobi alliance and world peace the cherry on top for this would be if Obito was alive to witness finally and arguably the most tragic loss in Naruto the death of Jiraiya Naruto's mentor and the pervy toad sage Jiraiya was an invaluable asset to the leaf village as Naruto's mentor he helped him learn the Rasengan and attained Sage Mode however all of his wisdom and jovial antics would come to an end when he came up against the six paths of pain despite his power Jiraiya's greatest asset was his espionage skills he deduced pains true identity but he figured it out all too late before Jiraiya could warn anyone pain killed him Jiraiya's death came as a major blow to not only viewers but also Naruto to learn of his mentors death at the hands of pain it was a lot to take in later on in the series when past warriors were being reincarnated Kabuto seriously considered bringing back Jiraiya for his strength it is perhaps better that Jiraiya was not reincarnated like the other past ninja but what a lot of people probably wanted was for Jiraiya to have never died like others on this list he was taken from us too early and those were some of the most satisfying and heartbreaking deaths in Naruto which one was your favorite if you could save one character who would it be let us know in the comments down below and don't forget to subscribe to CVR to stay
