Is there a more pathetic character?

>could have stopped the Uchiha clan massacre but didn't
Why would you do that? The Uchiha were total shits and counterproductive to a functioning village.
He should have wiped them out earlier.
>wasn't even strong enough to kill Orochimaru, his former student
To be fair, by that time Orochimaru was supposed to be the stronest character in the manga

T. Tobirama. Nice job with your Uchiha problem. Now you got an Uchiha demigod.
It was a joke how nobody gave a shit about the Third when all the other Hokage came back, characters or audience

You mean how genetically the Uchiha clan is finished?
You cannot repopulate a clan with monogamy and 1 child.

I really liked the dynamic between him and danzo. Danzo was too focused on always seeing everything as a choice between the lesser of two evils with the end justifying any means necesdary, while Hiruzen was way too idealistic trying to take the path of least conflict and hoping things would eventually work out.
I feel like madara and hashirama really had it almost write but kishi wrote himself into a corner and needed a quick reason for why the hokage kept fucking up.

And then the entirety of Akatsuki showed up. Not that most of them were stronger than him. And that Oro didn't even die when he was killed, fucking cheater.
>>152689325
Are they more powerful the less of them there are? Pretty silly idea.

Dude, Itachi made him look like a fodder when we has in Akatsuki

>could have stopped the Uchiha clan massacre but didn't
He tried talking to them but nothing worked out. On top of that his Senju based council urged him not to give into their political plans and he chose to let Danzo handle it. Honestly, he really did make the mistake of not letting Sasuke's dad be the 5th Hokage since he was reported to be as strong as the 4th
>couldn't save the village from the Kyuubi attack even though he's the so called "the god of shinobi"
He was old and past his prime. The man was like 60 when the attack happened. There's also barely any Kage in history that can handle the stronger tailed beasts like Kurama and Hachi unless they have godlike chakra (Hashirama) or an impregnable defense (3rd Raikage)
>best friends with Danzo who was a piece of shit
Danzo wanted to protect the village no matter the costs. He was a slightly shadier Tobirama and everyone respected Tobirama
>Yondaime specifically asked him to look after Naruto and make sure the village understood him to be a hero--didn't do that
He wanted to keep the nine tails jinchuriki hidden. You can't do that if everyone in the village knows the 4th Hokage's son is the jinchuriki. It would have been as dentrimental to Naruto's upbringing as how he grew up alone in the series.
>only put Naruto and Sasuke on the same team so that Sasuke could eventually use his Sharingan to control the Kyuubi
Where was this said?
>wasn't even strong enough to kill Orochimaru, his former student
Old and past it by then and had to fight Edo tensei on the side.

>Now you got an Uchiha demigod
Because Itachi didn't kill enough Uchiha.
Is there a worse genre than shounen?
