1.He's NOT trying to become "the best" or
Hokage

2. He's sexist without being offensively sexist! i found some of his ignorant comments about women kind of funny and loved it when Temari saves him and he realizes "oh man women can be awesome!"

3. He helped a a person being bullied be befriended him, not all people would do that.


4. He has the coolest power, shadow possession jutsu!

5. He's unbelievably intelligent. Something the main character lacks ( not trying to diss Naruto though)

6. When he fought against Temari he could have won so easily, he had her on the ropes, and yet he let her win!...
