Akatsuki

Yahiko (aka Pein)

The leader of Akatsuki, and the superhero team known as the Power Peins. He is regularly refferred to as Pein (which is actually Nagato's chat nickname), to most characters except Nagato himself. He's been killed off at the end of episode 25 in a situation very similar to his death in the comics. Nagato has been controlling his body along with the other Power Peins ever since.

Driven to Suicide: Hanzo takes his cereal for ransom and forces Nagato to kill him. When Nagato refuses, he kills himself instead.
A God Am I: He has a pretty inflated view of himself.
Killed Off for Real
Of Corpse He's Alive: Nagato has trouble explaining that he died on his wedding day, and tries to manipulate his body to convince everybody that he's alive.
People Puppets: Nagato can cotrol him via remote thanks to his piercings. and later via music.
Spell My Name with an "S": Lampshaded. His name is 'Pein', not 'Pain', as indicated by his T-shirt, which has the 'a' crossed out in the word 'pain', and an 'e' written beneath it.
Trademark Favorite Food: He loves his cereal.

Konan

The only girl on the team. She's engaged to Pein, and generally fulfills the role of a housewife. She's often the target of several guys' advances, most prominently Hidan. Currently married to Nagato.

Hidan

Pein's rival. Sometimes Ax Crazy, sometimes scheming. He's often making advances towards Konan, which always fail spectacularly. Is currently a head in a jar.

Cassandra Truth Once he went to a fortuneteller, who predicted that he'll be killed by a cigarette or a lighter, which he dismissed as "utter bullsh*t" since he doesn't even smoking. Then it's subverted when he's blown appart by Naruto's Rasenshuriken instead of by Shikamaru's bombs.
Cluster F-Bomb: He swears. A lot. Ever heard people say that Hungarian is the best language for swearing? Well he loves to abuse this to hell.
Gosh Dang It to Heck: He spends the entire movie doing this as part of a punishment for running off with Pein's body after a Freaky Friday Flip. His lines are so bad, Pein finally allows him to swear normally.
Humiliation Conga: In episode 24, he's shredded by Naruto, and later buried. In episode 26 he makes it out only to be hit by a stray bomb. In episode 30, he's finally rescued, put in a jar, and mounted on the head of a purple bear. Also, while underground, he was repeatedly bombed by Worms.
Mistaken for Gay: When he admits that he considers Kakuzu his rival.
Not Quite Dead: Hidan returns in episode 30. Except he's reduced to a head in a jar, mounted on the head of a bear.
Precision F-Strike: His first words after Pein allows him to swear again.

Kakuzu

Generally acts as The Big Guy. Kakuzu is said to be extremely violent and responsible for the deaths of his previous partners (including Kenny), but generally acts friendly. Whenever he's not sleepwalking. Died in episode 24, though he does call back from the afterlife occasionally.

Body Horror: Happens a lot when he's around.
Famous Last Words: "Faaaag..."
Humanoid Abomination: He's depicted like this, much like in the original. The series takes it a step further by making him an actual Eldritch Abomination underneath his stitched up skin. He looks like a monster while sleepwalking, and is also implied to have tentacles coming out of all the wrong places.
Killed Off for Real

Kisame

He takes on the role of the Token Black Guy, due to the different skin color. He also likes to rap, and speaks in a vaguely Russian accent.

Author Avatar: Every now and then he will speak for the author. His first Rap number is basically about the creation of the series.
Expy: Of Eminem. And sometimes Norville Rogers.
Soul Brotha: He's got the weird accent, uses some odd slang, and often engages in rap.
Sweet Tooth: He loves candy. A lot.

Itachi

Secretly a good guy. First he's trying to keep it a secret with interesting results, but most people know that already. He was killed by Sasuke at the end of episode 27.

Emo Teen
Gag Penis: It's mentioned briefly as the reason why Orochimaru wanted to take over his body. It's later confirmed, when Deidara discovers it the hard way.
Killed Off for Real
Large Ham: When confronting Sasuke, he tries to act as much like a villain as possible. It's hillarious.
Token Good Teammate

Deidara

Regularly mistaken for a girl. Deidara is usually seen crafting various things out of clay, that usually meet explosive ends. He seems to be obsessed with blowing stuff up, and past incidents have left permanent marks on the HQ. blew himself up to avenge the deaths of his two hands, forgetting for a moment that they were dead to begin with.

Ambiguously Gay

Butt Monkey: All the time.
Dude Looks Like a Lady: A running gag.
Killed Off for Real
Senseless Sacrifice: blows himself up to avenge Elton and Leonidas. Except they were ghosts to begin with so getting killed just means they lost their bodies.

Sasori

He rarely gets any spotlight and is rarely seen without his armor. When he is, he sometimes wears it's head like a mask. He was killed off in The Movie, and his puppet body is exhibited in the living room.

Bad Impressionists
Killed Off for Real: The first in fact.
So Unfunny It's Funny: his puppet skits

Nagato

A late addition to the cast. Nagato made Pein's piercings that allow him to control him with a remote when he wants to. He still loves Konan and eventually gets her to marry him. His hair started out jet black, but was later dyed red by Kisame.
