==Summary==
Hidan (飛段, Hidan) is an S-rank missing-nin who defected from Yugakure and later joined the Akatsuki. There, he was partnered with Kakuzu, despite the two's somewhat mutual dislike of each other. He was also the second newest member of Akatsuki at the time of Tobi's introduction. Kisame Hoshigaki laughingly referred to Hidan and Kakuzu as the Zombie Combo (ゾンビコンビ, Zonbi Konbi).

*Immortality (Type 2. Hidan is incapable of dying from virtually any injury, allowing him to survive things that would be otherwise fatal to others,Naruto Chapter 322 including perforations in vital spotsNaruto Chapter 322Naruto Chapter 323 and any form of dismemberment.Naruto Chapter 325Naruto Chapter 326 His immortality not only prevents him from dying from injuries but also renders him unaffected by injuries that should normally maim him despite being immortal, such as bone and muscle damage. This was evident when he pierced his own femur during his fight against Asuma and continued standing and walking normally.Naruto Chapter 324 Asuma, who suffered similar injuries due to Hidan's curse, could hardly stand and was limping by sheer willpower.Naruto Chapter 325 Even when decapitated, he remains conscious and retains his ability to speakNaruto Chapter 339)
*Regeneration (Mid-Low overtime. Most of the damage to his body, such as being pierced by two kunai blades,Naruto Chapter 322Naruto Chapter 323 piercing his own leg,Naruto Chapter 324 getting his whole body perforated by Shikamaru's shadow,Naruto Chapter 325 stabbing his chest with his retractable spear,Naruto Chapter 326 having his scythe pierce his abdomen and go through his back,Naruto Chapter 326 getting his neck sliced then reattached,Naruto Chapter 326 as well as the burn scars inflicted by Asuma's Fire Release: Ash Pile Burning,Naruto Chapter 323 show to completely vanish after 6 daysNaruto Chapter 332)
*Curse Manipulation, Damage Transferal and Durability Negation (The Curse Technique: Death Controlling Possessed Blood allows Hidan to link his body with that of his target by ingesting their blood and standing at an insignia of Jashin, drawn with his own blood.Sha no Sho, Page 267 This essentially turns him into a living voodoo doll for his opponent; any damage inflicted on him is also inflicted on the opponentNaruto Chapter 323Naruto Chapter 324)
Attack Potency: City level+ (Traded blows with Kakashi,Naruto Chapter 334Naruto Chapter 335 and is stated to be far stronger than AsumaNaruto Chapter 323)
Speed: Massively Hypersonic+ (Can keep up with Kakashi HatakeNaruto Chapter 335)
Lifting Strength: Unknown
Striking Strength: City level+ (Stronger than Asuma, and can trade blows with Kakashi)
Durability: City level+ (Withstood Kakuzu's Wind Style: Pressure Damage with no visible damage to his bodyNaruto Chapter 334)
Stamina: Superhuman (Hidan was able to face Asuma and Shikamaru and endure massive fatal injuries for considerable periods of time. Shortly thereafter, he participated in the sealing of the Three Tails and Two Tails, remaining awake for 6 days with no signs of fatigue. Hidan possesses tremendous pain tolerance, to the point that he doesn't even mind being pierced by enemies or even himself, even in vital spots like his heart. When sharing his pain with others through his Death Controlling Possessing Blood, he sees the pain as nothing more than pleasure)
Range: Standard Melee Range, Extended Melee RangeNaruto Chapter 333 to Several MetersNaruto Chapter 312 with Tripe-Bladed Scythe
Standard Equipment:
*Triple-Bladed Scythe: The Triple-Bladed Scythe is the primary weapon of Akatsuki-member Hidan. Its main purpose is to aid him in collecting blood for his curse ritual. Because of this, it is designed not so much to kill the target, but to wound them, no matter how big or small the wound. The three blades get smaller from top to bottom, giving the scythe a larger range despite decreasing its lethality. The scythe is attached to a long metal cable, wound around two spools on Hidan's left hip. This cable is strong enough to block kunai and allows Hidan to further increase the scythe's range by swinging it through the air. The scythe can split up and it has various other functions that were never shown. Due to its large size, Hidan claimed that it greatly inhibits his attack speed, and it makes him the slowest member in Akatsuki. Despite this, he is remarkably nimble in manipulating it, even being capable of using the scythe to deflect incoming shuriken. 
*Retractable Spear: This weapon is used by Hidan mostly in his Jashin rituals. The spear is a retractable cylinder that can be extended to its full size quickly. It is regularly used as Hidan's main killing move during his ritual, by stabbing himself in the heart. Hidan's rituals are usually long due to him liking to toy with his opponent, such as stabbing himself in several different areas of his body, to make them suffer before finishing them off. Hidan may also use it for combat, although this has only been shown to be used as a last resort when his Triple-Bladed Scythe was unavailable to him. He is shown to hide at least two of these spears in his Akatsuki cloak.
Intelligence: Average (Hidan's intelligence is not very high, yet is he capable of fundamental analysis after he was captured by Shikamaru's shadow several times)
Weaknesses: The Death Controlling Possessing Blood requires two special conditions to function: the user drawing an insignia of Jashin on the ground with their own blood and standing at the center of it, and ingesting the blood of their intended victim. If these two conditions are not met, the damage to Hidan would not be shared with his victim. Hidan is unable to move his body if it is separated from his head, such as by decapitation, thus rendering him helpless unless the head is reattached to the body. Although unable to die from most causes, Hidan can still die from malnutrition.
Notable Attacks/Techniques:
*Jujutsu: Jujutsu (literally meaning: Curse Technique) are a type of techniques that harm the enemy by cursing them. They work similar to juinjutsu, however, the user doesn't have to apply a seal on the enemy to curse them.
**Curse Technique: Death Controlling Possessed Blood: The Curse Technique: Death Controlling Possessed Blood is the exclusive jujutsu technique of Hidan and his primary method of killing his opponents under Jashinism. The technique requires two special conditions: One being that Hidan must have drawn an insignia of Jashin on the ground in his own blood, to which he must remain in the centre for the technique to function properly. The other being him to acquire and ingest the blood of his intended victim. Once ingested, his skin then turns black with white markings which makes him look like a skeleton, a symbol of absolute death. This serves as the link between him and his victim. Once his sacrificial ritual takes place, the victim's body is linked with Hidan's curse until he either steps or is forced out of the circle. Any kind of injury that Hidan inflicts upon himself (or the injury they inflicted on him) is reciprocated on his target, be it a mere scratch to a pierce in the heart. If Hidan is forced to step out of the circle, the link is temporarily broken and the victim is set free, but only as long as Hidan has stepped out of the circle's reach. Basically, this technique makes Hidan a living voodoo doll.
