* Obito witnesses the death of the girl he loves at the hand of Kakashi and reaches his despair event horizon. Immediately afterwards, Madara Uchiha tells him about his plans, which involves Obito convincing Nagato to use the Rinnegan to bring him back to life, presumably telling Obito exactly how this can be done as Nagato would likely not know it at the time.\\
'''You'd Expect:''' Learning that a jutsu exists that allows the dead to come back to life, Obito immediately goes to seek Nagato out and manipulate him into resurrecting Rin, or at the very least taking the Rinnegan and doing it himself, before returning to the Leaf Village with Rin and getting back on track to become the Hokage.\\
'''Instead:''' He never once considers the possibility of bringing Rin back to life whether through Edo Tensei or Rinne Rebirth, even when he himself possesses the Rinnegan later on, choosing instead to embrace Madara's plan because he refuses to accept living in a world where Rin is dead, kicking off a scheme that results in pretty much every single hardship occurring in the series.


Added DiffLines:

* Madara manipulated the Mist Shinobi to seal the Three-Tails inside of Rin in order to use her as a bomb against the Leaf Village, planning for the despair over Rin's death at the hands of Kakashi to turn Obito over to the dark side. Then when Obito is in the process of a HeelFaceTurn, Madara attempts to remove his eye.\\
'''You'd Expect:''' Madara to keep his mouth shut since no one would have any reason to suspect him and simply take Obito's eye, then kill him so he no longer has to deal with a potential problem later on.\\
'''Instead:''' He can't resist doing some EvilGloating about how pathetic Obito is, cementing Obito's HeelFaceTurn and reigniting his heroic spirit when he realizes what he's done, and his failure to kill him off allows Black Zetsu in Obito's body to betray him to Kaguya which results in Obito still being around to make a heroic sacrifice and Madara dying a pointless death.

'''Or You'd Expect''': Him to tell Naruto, who he is conversing with simultaneously, or after the defeat of Kaguya when he shows up with the kage, that Sasuke is a nutjob and shouldn't be trusted because he plans to destroy the ninja world and take rule it through hatred, so Naruto at least has a heads up to Sasuke's end goal and can try to talk some sense into him before the final showdown.

This example is not What An Idiot since is a logically justified in the universe. As explained in the canon Tailed Beast should to be sealed seriatim so it makes sense to leave Kyuubi on last since was necessary to find the other eight (information about the Jinchuuriki was secrecy in every country and some as we know traveling and not stay in place). Also Akatsuki had need to a certain amount of strong shinobi to start sealing Tailed Beasts and for this would be required 3 day and 3 night to seal at least one and herewith is necessary to take into account than fewer people in the organization the more time this occupies. Also if he took Naruto right away he would only add unnecessary problems since Konoha would immediately reacted to the loss of his only Jinchuuriki (as we know Balance Of Power among hidden villages is based on Tailed Beast and their Jinchuuriki and Konoha would definitely react to loss their only Tailed Beast) that in turn would quickly attracted unnecessary attention to Akatsuki, which (before Pain destroyed Konoha) trying to be hidden from the eyes in order to quietly perform the task. And it if is not to take into account Itachi Uchiha who in his time helped Tobi in the destruction of the clan Uchiha with the proviso that he will not take any hostile action to Konoha and that in turn as a member Akatsuki Itachi will be those who will catch Kyuubi (that he tried to perform but Jiraiya prevented this and the next 3 years it was impossible because they traveled and not stay in place).


* Tobi can teleport wherever he wants on a whim without anyone having any way of actually knowing he's done so until he's there, and them similarly having no actual way of stopping him.\\
'''You'd Expect:''' Tobi to appear whenever Naruto leaves the village, ever, and/or is either alone or with only a few people who aren't expecting immediate danger, and try and capture him. Hell, Naruto's childhood would have been a perfect time to try it (remember, Naruto was alone most of his life, Iruka and others acknowledging him is a major part of his story arc). Then he can either extract the Kyuubi to use as a weapon, or hold him until the Kyuubi is necessary. Granted, he might not have known what happened to the Kyuubi after his last intrusion into Konoha, but he could have easily infiltrated the village and kept his ears out for any information on the fox.\\
'''Instead:''' Tobi just leaves Naruto alone for 13 years instead of actually trying to capture him. Then sends Itachi and Kisame to try once, then ignores him for 3+ years, particularly while he's out in the world with only Jiraiya to protect him.\\
'''Addendum:''' Obviously this applies to the other 8 Jinchuriki as well, making Akatsuki ultimately totally superfluous in nearly every possible way, aside from unsealing the tailed beasts.

That way, Sasuke, while still having lost much of his family, wouldn't have anyone he could take revenge on, and he'd have a loving brother who could help ease his pain, therefore giving him a lot less reason for his FaceHeelTurn. As for the rep problem, he can then encourage Sasuke to work on proving it wrong, similar to what Naruto does for most of the series.\\
'''Instead:''' He tells Sasuke that he was responsible for the attack, makes himself out to be a monster, and [[MindRape Mind Rapes]] him for good measure, before running. He does this in order to give Sasuke motivation to hunt him down, kill him, and therefore redeem the Uchiha.\\
'''Result:''' This scheme ends up working [[GoneHorriblyRight a little too well]], before [[GoneHorriblyWrong failing completely]]: In order to become strong enough to kill Itachi, Sasuke ends up defecting from Konoha to Orochimaru, a guy who wants to possess him for his eyes. And Sasuke happily embraces the possibility of this happening if it would help him get his revenge. When Sasuke does kill Itachi, he's taken into the custody of the BigBad, who explains the truth of what Itachi was up to, causing Sasuke to want to [[DisproportionateRetribution destroy]] [[MisplacedRetribution the whole of Konoha]].

'''You'd Expect:''' That Itachi would use either genjutsu or transformed shadow clones to make it look to for all other people including for Sasuke like a load of foreign ninja carried out the attack, and that Itachi killed them all. That way, Sasuke, while still having lost much of his family, wouldn't have anyone he could take revenge on, and he'd have a loving brother who could help ease his pain, pain (while also staying with him in order to avoid any of action with Sasuke, from the side Danzo), therefore giving him a lot less reason for his FaceHeelTurn. As for the rep problem, he can then encourage Sasuke to work on proving it wrong, similar to what Naruto does for most of the series.\\
'''Instead:''' He requests for help [[BigBad Tobi]] and together with him arranges mass genocide the entire clan Uchiha and herewith taking all the blame for the destruction of the clan on himself (even thinking of the fact that this makes it very convenient for Tobi since none but Itachi and Danzo even do not know about his involvement in the massacre). And later he tells Sasuke that he was responsible for the attack, makes himself out to be a monster, and [[MindRape Mind Rapes]] him for good measure, before running. He does this in order to give Sasuke motivation to hunt him down, kill him, and therefore redeem the Uchiha.\\
'''Result:''' This In the end, the destruction of the entire clan brought a strong weakening of the military power of Konoha, allowed Tobi acquire a large number of Sharingans in his laboratory and also acquire another member of the Akatsuki for sealing Tailed Beasts. Itachi scheme with Sasuke ends up working [[GoneHorriblyRight a little too well]], before [[GoneHorriblyWrong failing completely]]: In order to become strong enough to kill Itachi, Sasuke ends up defecting from Konoha to Orochimaru, a guy who wants to possess him for his eyes.

* Gaara's father needs to insure that he has control over the Shukaku to make sure that he won't lose control of him.\\
'''You'd Expect:''' Him to wait until Gaara is older and make sure that he's being treated fairly to keep him and Shukaku in control.\\
'''Instead:''' He has his uncle betray him, lie to him and say that his mother never loved him and then try to blow him up... And he had already been having a horrible day already. Not to mention he was only '''six years old!''' '''''Any''''' six-year old child would have little control of their emotions! Idiotic JerkAss...



'''Instead:''' [[BondVillainStupidity He decides to just let him go]] and decides to duel Hiruzen to the death with his Edo Hokages. Even though Hiruzen still dies in the end, Orochimaru lost the usage of his arms thus preventing him from using any Ninjutsu [[spoiler: until he regains it through an Uzumaki ritual, 4 years later]].

* During the Itachi Pursuit Arc, we learn that Jiraiya has access to a technique called Sage Mode, which [[SuperMode enhances the user's physical abilities as well as their jutsu]]. One arc later, Naruto is able to learn this technique within the span of a week, and in fact manages to surpass Jiraiya in it. He doesn't have to do anything special to be able to start learning it either; the only requirement for the student is that they have a large amount of chakra, which Naruto easily fills. Now let's go back to the [[TimeSkip two and a half year training trip]] Naruto went on with Jiraiya, which Naruto undertook for the sole purpose of becoming strong enough to both bring Sasuke back and defend himself against the Akatsuki.\\
'''You'd Expect:''' Jiraiya to have Naruto trained in using Sage Mode during the trip, so that he'll have the skills necessary to fulfil his goals. This would really have been a good idea after it became too dangerous for Naruto to use Kurama's chakra because of how weak the seal had become.\\
'''Instead:''' He doesn't, and as a result, Naruto has to fight much harder battles, and the first time he meets Sasuke after the TimeSkip, his former teammate easily overpowers him.



* [[spoiler: Nagato]]/Pain has a pretty big one. It's plainly evident for all to see that he could have succeeded in kidnapping Naruto at one point, and indeed that was the entire goal of him going to Konoha in the first place.\\
