Excellent villain who exposes the moral hypocrisy of Konoha just by existing at this point. Underrated fashion sense (all of his followers were cunt down in that lavender Balenciaga sash). Why hasn’t he been arrested for child endangerment (I know why it’s cuz Konoha sucks). Helped Sasuke in extremely pivotal moments when none of his fake “friends” in Team 7 would. But he still should be put in jail with his pretty self.
Okay I’m sorry but I’m rewatching the chunin exams arc and with how overdramatic and fake edgy Gaara is there is NO WAY his siblings don’t mock him for it as petty revenge the second he stops being a psychopath. Baki asks him where he’s going and his completely straight faced response is “to remind myself I’m alive” like okay ebony darkness dementia ravenway, it’s all fun and games now, but it’s not gonna be so edgy when your older brother uses this line to clown you every time he leaves a room for the next 2 and a half years.
I literally just love orochimaru so much. like i’m drunk off my two mojitos but god he really is my fav character ever and now he’s canon nonbinary n hes so dynamic and compelling and interesting and theres so much more 2 him than meets the eye if u give it a minute of thought n aesthetically hes so peak n hes so intrinsically interconnected to everyone in the naruto world its like impossible to exclude him AND hes a parent a flawed parent who loves his sons AND hes a canon genderfluid whos been every gender under the sun and i love him. like look at the first pic of him in the manga. like that’s so badass how can you not fucking love him.
hes got a snake and TWO swords and theres the moon in the background what raw gay pangender villain energy. a snake and a moon. i love you
But did i say anywhere that he wasn’t evil though? Like did i? Can i post about my fav character on my own blog like can i do that ok cheers
also can i just say that idk where that interview is from but it must be decades old bc i can’t remember the last time orochimaru did something “evil”
