If every time I've seen Madara being terribly mischaracterised I've got a penny I would probably be reach already T_T
At least warring states/founding of Konoha times Madara
#I'm so sick and tired of the “macho-man” Madara as I call him#oh so agressive and a conqueror the quintessence of masculinity etc#so hungry for power and wanted to be a hokage etc#so confident!#but..... he is not????#It's very obvious in the Manga that he's sad and depressed and insecure in his position#and he's not a forceful tyrant as people love to portray him#he listens to what other people want ( his clan and Izuna) he doesn't try to force them to do anything unless it's inevitable#he hasn't wanted to be a hokage he was surprised and not sure that he would be a right choice for a position#when Hashirama told him he wants him to be a hokage#when he overheard Hashirama and Tobirama speaking he clearly was going to Hashirama to talk#he didn't confront them right on the spot like he could he turned and run#he didn't confront them at all until Hashirama came to him to speak ( too late)#that's not how aggressive confident person beheaves#and even later in the 4rth war ark....#his original plan hadn't included war or big scale violence#he wanted for it to be realised without much collateral damage ( war happened because of obito)#people always basing his dominative/sadistic interpretation off this ark#but the fact is - he doesn't enjoy dominating and beating people who are weaker than him#the mere fact of victory doesn't bring him joy or satisfaction#and people almost always write him like he gets off on it...#he is bored almost the whole ark - he gets emotional and exited when Hashirama appears#because it's Hashirama and because he is a promise of struggle#the promice of fight with an equal or stronger opponent#what Madara canonically gets the kick out of is the process of the fight the struggle the fight against the strongest opponent#he seems downright joyful when his ass gets beaten he's enjoying it and that's canon#the man canonically enjoys being overpowered and getting his ass beaten#and comments on how he's bored and unsatisfied with beating and overpowering others 🤦‍♀️#the fact that he canonically represent the ying part in the yang/ying pair with Hashirama#is another meaningful matte which I won't expand on here
