Kabuto became a sage, Orochimaru didn't. Kabuto even made a specific point to brag about having achieved what Oro couldn't.
I don't think there's such a thing as a dragon sage. I think it was more of him saying that he's much stronger than any snake sage and has 'ascended to the next level'. Kind of like going from super saiyan to super saiyan 2.
Nargato would be my favorite villian before Naruto apparently convinced him that he should stop his crusade of delivering pain.The Six Paths of Pain glassed Konohagakure and brought the village to it's knees. Not only that, but they were able to kill Jiraiya.That fight between Pain and Naruto was bomb.
This. Pain before Nagato got TNJ'd was pretty boss. The back story behind him was cool, too.

I think it was off-panel, but still, that says something about the guy's strength. It makes you also kind of wonder what happened to the original Akatsuki that he formed and what caused it to become what it was later in the manga.
Quote from: Warren on January 18, 2015, 04:43:25 AMNo, he was an all-out power hungry scumbag pretty much. The uchiha coup-de-tat? Shisui could have stopped that with koto amatsukami, easily, but Danzo deliberately called him out to try take the eyes and force the coup so Itachi would have to wipe out the clan.Why? Because he wanted koto amatsukami from the eyes for himself to genjutsu others, and more sharingans for his izanagi spam.Koto only works on once, two individuals max. Even if the Uchiha Clan head suddenly said "hey, let's try to make peace", you think the rest of the Uchiha would have just went along with that? Shisui's Koto might could have stalled, but it eventually would have simply made it even harder for the Uchiha clan to be put down quietly if they ever found out what really went down. Koto is detectable by others around the target/victim. My favorite villain though would have to be Madara as well. Up until the very end of his life, he stuck to his guns, and didn't get converted like so many other of his pawns. He followed through with his vision, and his plan. There was no talking him out of the plot. He got a little too OP though in the grand scheme of things, but so did every other significant character.
