Appearance

Susanoo initially appears as a skeletal or partially formed humanoid avatar surrounding its user. As more ocular power is invested, it develops muscles, armor, weapons, additional arms, wings, and eventually a complete body. Its color and aura vary between users rather than following a single standard appearance 238 442 782.

• Golden: Hyuga Kagami and Uchiha Ryota.
• Emerald-green: Shisui.
• Dark green: Uchiha Shinichi.
• Red: Itachi.
• Dark crimson: Danzō’s Demon Susanoo.
• Purple: Sasuke.
• Emerald-blue or turquoise-blue: Obito’s Susanoo 487 489.
• Complete-body forms may possess wings, four arms, flame armor, and a diamond-shaped space at the forehead where the user is positioned 231 391 643.

Abilities & Skills

Chakra Avatar

Susanoo combines Mangekyō Sharingan ocular power with chakra to create a massive humanoid construct that surrounds and protects its user 442.

• Provides powerful offense and defense.
• Can progress from bones and ribs to a half-body warrior and then a complete-body avatar.
• Can physically wield weapons and interact with the battlefield.
• Its strength, size, color, weapons, and special traits differ according to the user.
• The basic skeletal form is not invulnerable; Mei Terumi’s Boil Release and the Fourth Raikage’s Lightning Release Chakra Mode can damage it 993.

Complete-Body Susanoo

The complete-body form is the highest documented conventional manifestation of Susanoo. It possesses a full humanoid body and can be large enough to dominate an entire battlefield 231 1147.

• Can reach nearly 100 meters in height 262 391.
• May possess wings and fly.
• Can use enormous weapons capable of devastating terrain.
• Places the user within a diamond-shaped space at the construct’s forehead 231 1147.
• The ground beneath its feet remains a tactical weakness if the user is enclosed within a sealed area 643.
• Dust Release can penetrate or destroy even a complete-body Susanoo 1288.

Susanoo-no-Mikoto

Susanoo-no-Mikoto is a specialized Mangekyō Sharingan technique that enhances Susanoo rather than functioning as a standard form 234.

• Uchiha Ryota’s left eye increases Susanoo’s power.
• His right eye reduces Susanoo’s chakra consumption.
• The enhancement can produce a golden, winged, four-armed complete-body Susanoo.
• Kagami’s use of the technique allows his Susanoo to fly and generate powerful wing-driven shockwaves 391.

Flight and Mobility

Complete-body Susanoo can fly when equipped with wings 231 391.

• Kagami’s wingbeats dispersed the mist across an entire valley.
• A single ordinary wingbeat generated wind comparable to a standard B-rank Wind Release technique 391.
• Flight provides a major advantage against ground-based opponents.
• Sasuke’s winged Susanoo is especially effective against aerial targets because of its speed and bow attacks 996.

Weapon Manifestation

Susanoo can wield weapons formed from the user’s chakra and ocular power.

• Kagami’s forms use enormous flaming swords capable of devastating terrain and spreading golden flames 391.
• Sasuke’s complete-body Susanoo uses a giant bow and arrows; the arrows can be combined with Amaterasu and Kagutsuchi 1055 1147.
• Itachi’s Susanoo wields the Totsuka Blade.
• Shisui’s Susanoo uses the Yata Mirror defensively 654 655.
• The Totsuka Blade and Yata Mirror are separate divine artifacts rather than universal Susanoo abilities 280 655.

Tailed Beast Integration

A complete Susanoo can absorb a Tailed Beast’s power and combine with it to form Majestic Attire Susanoo 1137.

• Greatly increases the construct’s strength.
• Improves its endurance.
• Combines Mangekyō ocular power with Tailed Beast chakra.
• Gives the user an additional method of suppressing or overpowering Tailed Beasts.

Limitations

Susanoo places a severe burden on the user unless its ocular power has been stabilized.

• Ordinary Mangekyō Sharingan users suffer declining eyesight and physical strain with repeated use 30.
• Sustaining Susanoo for too long can rapidly exhaust ocular power and cause the construct to collapse 334 996.
• Shisui’s First Hokage Cells prevent ocular power from declining, but his ordinary Mangekyō Sharingan still limits him to a form below true complete-body Susanoo 654.
• Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan or First Hokage Cells can stabilize ocular power and permit more sustained use 376 489.
• Eyes transplanted into a body with poor compatibility consume more chakra and are more difficult to wield efficiently 243 334 391.
• Susanoo can be destroyed by sufficiently powerful techniques, including Bone Release, Dust Release, and Danzo’s Sanzu River 487 1288 654.

Story Role / Major Arcs

Shinichi’s Susanoo

Uchiha Shinichi first uses Susanoo after falling behind Hyuga Kagami in close combat. His half-body form protects him from Kagami’s conventional attacks, while his later armored, four-armed form allows him to fight at full strength 123 124.

Flame Demon and Shisui

While disguised as the God Organization’s Flame Demon, Kagami activates his golden Susanoo against Shisui. Shisui responds with his emerald-green Susanoo, creating a public clash that helps preserve Kagami’s disguise and clear Shisui of suspicion 238 239.

Kagami’s Battlefield Spectacle

Kagami uses a complete-body Susanoo with four arms and two wings to intimidate Kirigakure’s pursuit force. Its flight disperses the valley’s mist, and its flaming sword devastates the terrain. The display is primarily psychological warfare, but maintaining the form severely drains Kagami’s ocular power 391.

The Power of All Things

During Danzō’s attempt to evolve his eyes, Kagami’s golden Susanoo clashes with Danzō’s dark-red Demon Susanoo. Both eventually reach complete-body forms, and their battle damages the surrounding island and threatens to destroy it 598 600.

Battle on Bird Crossing Island

Danzō’s Demon Susanoo initially overwhelms the incomplete forms used by Shisui and Itachi. Kagami joins the battle with his Golden Flame Susanoo, allowing the three Uchiha-related fighters to damage Danzō’s construct. Danzō then reveals the Sanzu River, which dissolves part of Kagami’s Susanoo 652 654 656.

Sasuke’s Mangekyō Awakening

Sasuke first manifests a purple Susanoo when Kagami’s provocation pushes him into awakening the Mangekyō Sharingan. The sudden appearance saves Sasuke from defeat and transforms the arena battle into a confrontation between two Mangekyō-level fighters 990 991.

Kagami defeats Sasuke by exploiting his knowledge of Susanoo’s weaknesses and the instability caused by Sasuke’s excessive use of Mangekyō techniques 993 996.

Sasuke’s Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan

After obtaining the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan, Sasuke manifests a nearly 100-meter-tall, winged complete-body Susanoo. Its bow and arrow destroy large-scale ninjutsu and overpower the reanimated First and Second Hokage’s weakened bodies 1147 1148.

War Against the Six Paths

Sasuke’s complete-body Susanoo is later sliced apart by Dust Release, demonstrating that even its strongest conventional form is not absolute defense 1288. In the same conflict, Obito possesses a Susanoo described as operating at the Six Paths level 1345.
