Since we're back (even though we lost all that data) I figured I would do this. List the Akatsuki form strongest to weakest (your opinion). Then list them on how you like them. 1 being the highest of course.
STRONGEST:
1)Tobi/Madara
2)Kisame-He does have the highest Chakra of all the Akatsuki. He can also make his own pool of water for his water Jutsu. Add in his skil with a blade and how he is Tobi's friend. He can't be weak just never tried hard.
3)Itachi-If he hadn't held back on Sasuke he WOULD have won. Hell he could have killed most people!
4)Pein
5)Kakuzu-He is very smart and deadly. Kakashi almost dies to him which is why he goes lower then Pein since he did kill Kakashi...
6)Sasori-Deidara did say Sasori was stronger then he was.
7)Deidara
8)Konoan-I don;t knwo why I just get that feeling that she is pretty good.
9)Hidan-The only real think Hidan has going for him is his Immortality. Hidan said it himself he is the slowest of the Akatsuki and he has the worst aim. Plus he seems kind of stupid...
10)Zetsu-I know we haven't seen him fight but his skills seem as though he is only really good at spying. This could change once we see him fight but for now that is where I put him.
FAVORITES:
1)Kakuzu
2)Itachi
3)Sasori
4)Hidan
5)Kisame
6)Tobi (Not Madara. I haven't seen enough of him to put him here yet)
7)Deidara-WOuld be higher but I like others better...
8)Zetsu
9)Konan-We don't see her enough.
10)Pein-Kills way to many people then half of them come back to life?
