Background / History
Sasuke initially finds hope in the public revelations surrounding the Uchiha Clan’s destruction, which reignite his wish for justice and vengeance 8. After awakening and meeting Daren Yi, he is disheartened to learn that the surviving Uchiha have already unlocked Mangekyo Sharingan, leaving him feeling far behind 17.
Daren Yi becomes a major influence on Sasuke’s development. Sasuke observes Daren’s battle tactics against Root and Danzō, treating them as an example of the Uchiha Clan’s proper combat style 37. He later resolves to avenge the clan and become a better clan head than Fugaku 39.
During Kakashi’s bell exercise, Sasuke realizes the purpose behind Kakashi’s deceptive teaching method and reflects on the Uchiha’s nindō 78. At the Chunin Exam, he grows bolder, arrives with Suigetsu as his subordinate, and openly provokes the Kage 115.
Sasuke’s relationship with Itachi remains strained. He feels betrayed by Itachi and seeks Daren Yi’s support 37. Later, Sasuke is overwhelmed by the scale of the Uchiha Clan’s hidden plans and struggles to accept the brutal solutions proposed by Itachi and Daren Yi 161 162.
At the Uchiha residence, Sasuke realizes that he is content with his life and wants to protect it. This realization triggers his Mangekyo Sharingan’s unusual awakening 165. He subsequently decides to stop living beneath Itachi’s shadow and to live on his own terms 166.
Sasuke later reveals that he is seven years old rather than the two-year-old others believed him to be 173. He kills Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura, orders Root ninja to commit suicide, and becomes a decisive force in Konoha’s political upheaval 173.
Personality
Sasuke is proud, willful, and highly competitive. He seeks recognition for his strength, challenges authority figures, and initially wants to confront Itachi after discovering the scale of his own Sage Mode-enhanced power 64 115 160.
His outlook is shaped by a strong desire to protect his family and clan. Unlike the traditional Uchiha path of gaining power through tragedy, his Mangekyo awakens through happiness, contentment, and the wish to preserve what he has 165.
As his power grows, Sasuke becomes increasingly domineering and indifferent to convention. He demands to replace Hiruzen Sarutobi as the “Third Hokage” rather than succeed him as the Fifth, and later earns fear and obedience throughout the ninja world 174 175. He can also be cruelly playful toward defeated enemies, repeatedly humiliating Obito rather than simply ending the fight 203 205.
