** His short second life is even worse for him. He defeats Hashirama and Tobirama (though in their Edo, thus weaker forms), becomes the Ten-Tails Jinchuuriki, enacts the Infinite Tsukuyomi, has essentially turned into the most powerful being on the planet...only to get promptly betrayed and backstabbed by a supposedly-loyal minion, his body taken over and converted into a vessel for his PhysicalGoddess ancestor, and ultimately dies stripped of all the powers he worked so hard to obtain and knowing everything he did was AllForNothing. His only consolation is Hashirama's pity.

* HatedByAll: By the end of the series, he's flat-out the most hated individual in shinobi history. Even his own protege Tobi/Obito hated him, [[spoiler:and that was before Obito found out that Madara deliberately engineered Obito's StartOfDarkness by arranging Rin's death]]. Not even Naruto made an effort to try and redeem him. The only people who still care for him at all are Izuna (who died before Madara committed his worst crimes and [[MoralityChain whose death is why Madara turned out the way he did]]) and Hashirama, who gave up redeeming him after the severity of Madara's crimes became too much, [[spoiler:eventually settling on forgiving Madara while the latter was on his (second) deathbed]].

Not even Naruto made an effort to try and redeem him. him, though that can also be attributed to a general disconnect from and lack of knowledge of Madara's past. The only people who still care for him at all are Izuna (who died before Madara committed his worst crimes and [[MoralityChain whose death is the catalyst for why Madara turned out the way he did]]) and Hashirama, who gave up redeeming him after the severity of Madara's crimes became too much, [[spoiler:eventually [[spoiler:while still eventually settling on forgiving reconciling with Madara while the latter was on his (second) (third) deathbed]]. Madara acknowledges this and doesn't seem to mind too much.



** On a more tragic note, for all his overwhelming arrogance and conceit, a large part of what drove him off the deep end was also due to his personal sense of failure over protecting his brothers--of which he had ''four'', all dead before the founding of Konoha.



* TheSociopath: By his adult years, Madara turns out to be a complicated example of this; his genuine love for his brother Izuna, his concerns for his clan and him genuinely wanting peace may seem to subvert Madara from being a sociopath, but he still maintains a number of symptoms associated with that mindset. He leads life in a parasitic way, manipulating and twisting others into doing his bidding, a massive refusal to admit to his wrongdoings, an obscenely arrogant and narcissistic attitude that has him claim himself to be better than everyone else, prioritizing his own needs above everyone else's, and generally being very ecstatic about violence and destruction. Of the whole series, Madara is the Uchiha closest to being a sociopath, and while his affection and friendship with others are indeed genuine, they are not enough to completely overshadow his more negative traits.
* SoreLoser: A big part of the series is due to Madara not being able to cope with Hashirama beating him in everything.

traits. The chronology should also be noted, as it's very safe to assume that the Madara before Izuna's death and during Konoha's early days would ''not'' be the type of person to do the things he did after his defection and reanimation----he had a literal ''decades'' worth of time to fully transition into the more villainous Madara we were first introduced to.
* SoreLoser: A big part of the series is due to Madara not being able to cope with Hashirama beating him in everything. More smpathetically, it was also due to his inability to accept the deaths of his brothers.

* {{Jerkass}}: Even before his HeelFaceTurn, Kurama claimed that [[EvilerThanThou Madara's chakra is more sinister than his own]], and when he recognized Madara's presence in the war, he immediately pulled an EnemyMine with Naruto. Madara is pretty much the biggest asshole in the entire series, and that says ''a lot''.

* {{Jerkass}}: Even before During the process of his HeelFaceTurn, HeelFaceTurn,particularly after his defection from the village, Kurama claimed that [[EvilerThanThou Madara's chakra is more sinister than his own]], and when he recognized Madara's presence in the war, he immediately pulled an EnemyMine with Naruto. Madara is pretty much the biggest asshole in the entire series, and that says ''a lot''.



* NeverMyFault: Madara thinks he is living in a CrapsackWorld and blames it for the suffering that he endured in his life despite the fact that most of these problems were caused by his own actions. He accuses Tobirama of murdering Izuna even though Madara, at that moment, was the leader of Uchiha clan (whose members if you believe the words of Hashirama already understood that the Senju clan was stronger than they were) and Hashirama himself already offered him peace and if he was not so stubborn then perhaps his brother would still be alive. Also, he accuses his clan and his village of not wanting to make him Hokage despite the fact that his aforementioned behavior is a key part of the reason why they chose Hashirama as Hokage. And also he considers his suffering after his defeat by Hashirama absolutely undeserved even though he was the one who instigated the fight and he tried to destroy everything they dreamed of for years.



* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: As if there weren't enough reasons to absolutely despise him in-universe, he's openly sexist and spends much of his fight with Tsunade bashing her. Of course, it can simply be chalked up to him being a dick in general.



* SillyRabbitCynicismIsForLosers: Probably the biggest example in the series. Despite becoming one of the most powerful beings in the world capable of trashing anyone in combat, and despite the fact that he [[spoiler:did complete the Moon's Eye Plan]], he ultimately ends as the biggest loser in the series, not only failing to achieve any of his goals but only making things worse for himself and everyone else in the process. [[spoiler:Izuna's death, the destruction of the Uchiha clan, the animosity between the ninja villages, Akatsuki and their misdeeds, the Fourth Shinobi World War, all those events were caused directly or indirectly by his actions despite his stated intentions of bringing everlasting peace and protecting his brother and his clan. Even his grand plan to become the savior of the world ended in failure as it was actually the scheme of somebody else. In their final conversation, Hashirama points out that his problem was his cynicism, as he just refused to trust other people and share his burdens with them, a path that ultimately leads to his ruin. Madara concedes that Hashirama might have a point, but it's too late now.]]

* ThenLetMeBeEvil: Even after Izuna's death, Madara was willing to cooperate with Hashirama to form the Hidden Leaf Village, to the point where Hashirama wanted to make him Hokage. Tobirama, however, stated that the Hokage should be decided by popular vote, and that Madara's candidacy would never be supported, seeing as how everyone saw Hashirama as the leader. Madara, who was overhearing this, came to the conclusion that there could never be true peace between the Senju and Uchiha, and it all went downhill from there...

Seeing the tablet at the Naka Shrine is what truly made him come to the conclusion that there could never be true peace between the Senju and Uchiha, and it all went downhill from there...



* TragicVillain: While it isn't an excuse for his actions, Madara is no doubt the product of a ''lifetime'' filled with tragedy. By the age of ten, he had already lost ''four brothers'', resulting in his desperate dream for peace, which he shared with his best friend, Hashirama. However, he cherished last remaining brother, Izuna, more than anything, enough that he willingly turned his back on his friend and his dream, and continued the Uchiha-Senju feud to new heights. The casualties of this continued feud resulted in the death of the brother he sought to protect. Then, after finally giving in and joining Hashirama in building Konoha, he was denied the post of the First Hokage and learned the truth about the Uchiha-Senju feud from the tablet in the Naka Shrine, which finally drove him over the deep end and into the Madara we all know and hate. [[spoiler:The fact that he was a pawn used to revive his distant ancestor is just icing on the cake.]]

** He is also considered to be one to Hashirama Senju. Both of them were best friends turned enemies, they’re both the founders of the Hidden Leaf Village, they were both considered to be the most powerful Shinobi of all time and like Naruto and Sasuke, they are both the reincarnations of Asura and Indra respectively. However while Hashirama wanted to bring peace to the Shinobi world by stopping the other clans from fighting each other through cooperation and support, Madara’s version of peace is achieving it through total domination and later creating the Eye of the Moon plan to rule the Shinobi world as a god, this is due to the fact that Madara went mad after reading the Uchiha stone tablet, betraying Hashirama and becoming sworn enemies with him. After their deaths both became renowned figures in the Shinobi world, with Hashirama being an AllLovingHero and Madara being HatedByAll.

Both are individuals who were molded by warfare (Madara grew up in warfare whereas Zod was a military general), were considered to be among the strongest of their kind, attempted to stage a takeover because they were discontent about their former best friend's more diplomatic and peaceful solutions, and finally, both display large amounts of arrogance and narcissism, with Madara claiming that only he could save the Ninja World whereas Zod felt that only he was able to lead Krypton and its people to a prosperous era.

* ColonelKurtzCopy: Many of Madara's characteristics pay heavy resemblance to [[Film/ApocalypseNow Colonel Walter E. Kurtz]], being a highly megalomaniacal being who had ties to a military section of a society, which he had since deserted, and having very lofty goals and desires of godhood, in addition to likening himself as one. Even his main motivation seems to be due to a combination of going against his superior's wishes as well as becoming obsessed with attaining ultimate power, all in pursuit of achieving peace, regardless of how twisted the plan is.

However at that by this time he was already an a very old man and сould not make proper full use of his new abilities. Because of which this he transplanted his Rinnegan into a young Nagato to cultivate their power, and made do himself with another Sharingan eye he had acquired at some point. By this point he was near the end of his lifespan, left with no option but to use it hook himself up to the statue as a life support that left support, leaving him trapped in a small chamber.unable to move further than what the roots of the statue tethered to him could extend, relying on the Zetsu produced by the statue to carry out further machinations.

* BigBadWannabe: [[DownplayedTrope Downplayed]], at least compared to other examples in the series, but Madara is still very much reduced to this by the end. As the GreaterScopeVillain to Obito, Madara is indirectly responisible for all of his atrocities, and despite getting completely overshadowed by his ancestor Princess Kaguya he still receives the lion's share of the blame for the Fourth Shinobi War [[Manga/{{Boruto}} years after its conclusion]]. Upon being revived he joined Obito as one of the two biggest threats in the war as he soundly curb-stomped the Five Kage and most of the Alliance. By all rights, even after Obito betrayed him he should have been the BigBad proper once he was fully-revived and sealed the Ten Tails into himself. However, soon after he activates the Infinite Tsukuyomi he's betrayed by his EnigmaticMinion Black Zetsu, with his body being used as a vessel for the revival of Kaguya. He isn't even dignified with a final face-off against Naruto and Sasuke.

* ItsAllAboutMe: As per the usual for Uchihas. Which, considering he was once their Head and among the most influential in their history (founding Konoha alongside Hashirama) means he set the standard for them during the time of the Hidden Villages. First he was mad because his clan wanted to stop fighting the Senju clan ([[SunkCostFallacy because he believed that it would render the sacrifices of countless Uchiha - including his own brother senseless]]). Then after he agreed to a truce he threw ''a tantrum'' because ''he'' didn't get to be Hokage (because he believed that if the First Hokage was Hashirama it would mean that the Second would be Tobirama and the Uchiha clan would come to an end). Then he was displeased that the Uchiha clan did not listen to his warning and decided to ''forget about them''. Then he decided to read a secret tablet about the history of the world revealing that [[AwfulTruth the war-torn world they lived in had always been that way]] and that even attempt of his his ancestor to use the power of God to put an end to all wars didn't work. After this Madara in his turn ''himself'' decided to [[GenreBlindness try to get the power of God and use it to put an end to all wars]] because he apparently believed that ''he'' will succeed where his predecessor failed. Herewith he decided to completely ignore the security and life of ''all'' those who stand in his way, including his best friend, his own clan, his own village and in principle all people living on the planet. All in all, his whole Infinite Tsukuyomi plan is a thin excuse for an ego trip. Madara gets to show off being the strongest being in existence while also getting to be the Messiah of the world and ruler of it.

Added DiffLines:

* AxCrazy: His desire for peace and his condescending nature aside, Madara consistently showcases himself to be a bloodthirsty person who relishes the prospect of battle and is not above getting all giddy whenever he starts to feel a drip of his blood trickle down on whatever wound he endures. His violently insane nature is best shown when he regains his right Rinnegan eye, bites himself to feel and taste his own blood and maniacally laugh at the feeling of having to experience a fight whilst being alive. This may have something to do with a combination of the Curse of Hatred as well as living a life of constant battles between the Uchiha and Senju Clans, which would have shaped Madara to have become the deranged BloodKnight that he is.
