This man owned my entire being as an 11-year old girl watching Naruto. I honestly thought that no one but Sasuke and Kakashi would ever me attractive to me in the franchise but then here comes Pain, who looks like a hotter version of Naruto, and my world just about flipped.
In all honesty though, I love Pain, not just because he looks amazing but more so because of his powers (and ruthlessness). His backstory, like other villains', was tragic but propelled him to become powerful- a trope that I absolutely adore. Nagato's Six Paths of Pain continues to be one of the most iconic villains in the whole anime world.
