Background / History

Academy and Uchiha Massacre

Sasuke introduces himself at the Ninja Academy with a single ambition: surpassing his older brother, Itachi. His aloof demeanor attracts intense attention from classmates, particularly Sakura, but he ignores it. 11

After returning home one day, Sasuke finds his parents murdered and is attacked by Itachi. Itachi subjects him to Tsukuyomi, forcing him to repeatedly witness the clan's slaughter; the trauma awakens Sasuke's one-tomoe Sharingan. 14

Itachi secures Sasuke's protection as part of his arrangement with Hiruzen Sarutobi, while Danzō attempts unsuccessfully to claim Sasuke for Root. During Sasuke's hospitalization, Nanfeng treats him, beginning a relationship that becomes central to Sasuke's growth. 15

Early Training

Sasuke initially treats Nanfeng as an inferior rival and challenges him while still recovering, but their sparring exposes the limits of Sasuke's pride. Nanfeng urges him to train rather than rely solely on talent; Naruto later joins them, forming a friendship and training partnership. 16 18

His Sharingan evolves to two tomoe while witnessing Naruto's Nine-Tails chakra emerge. He later develops lightning-based body stimulation to improve his movement speed, fully masters Chidori, and advances to a three-tomoe Sharingan upon confronting Itachi. 40 96 122

Sasuke accepts Orochimaru's Cursed Seal as a source of power but consciously resists becoming dependent on it. He recognizes that power he cannot control will ultimately bring disaster. 55 61

Defection and Pursuit of Power

Knowing that Orochimaru wants his body as a reincarnation vessel, Sasuke nevertheless chooses to leave Konoha to accelerate his growth and eventually confront Itachi. 123 150

His confrontation with Naruto at the Valley of the End is staged as part of a broader plan, but Naruto allows Sasuke's Chidori to strike him in order to trigger Sasuke's Mangekyo Sharingan awakening. Sasuke is deeply shaken when he learns Naruto proposed the plan. 153 154 165

After later staging Orochimaru's assassination, Sasuke forms a temporary group with Karin, Suigetsu, and Jūgo to locate Itachi. He battles Deidara and Obito while withholding his Mangekyo abilities until necessary. 237 238

Reconciliation with Itachi

Sasuke and Itachi meet at the Uchiha ancestral graveyard for their long-awaited battle. Sasuke counters Itachi's genjutsu, combines lightning-enhanced movement with his Sharingan, and summons Kirin by directing natural lightning at his brother. 247 248 250

Kabuto interrupts the battle by controlling Sasuke and making him a temporary Seven-Tails jinchūriki. Afterward, Nanfeng performs an eye-fusion surgery on both brothers, granting Sasuke Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan. 252 256

Itachi then uses Tsukuyomi to share his memories with Sasuke. Sasuke learns that Itachi was a double agent between the Uchiha and Konoha, acted to prevent war, and secured Sasuke's survival as the condition of his deal with the village. 257 258

Fourth Ninja World War

Sasuke and Itachi fight together against Killer B, Danzō, Kabuto, and later Kabuto's reanimated versions of their parents. The brothers repeatedly coordinate their Susanoo and ocular abilities against enemies who exploit the Uchiha clan's history and powers. 262 264 284 348

Madara kills Sasuke with Limbo during the war, after which Sasuke awakens in a realm for the dead alongside Naruto and meets the Sage of Six Paths. He later returns to battle with a one-eyed Rinnegan and assists Naruto against Madara. 411 417

Sasuke discovers Amenotejikara during the battle for the Divine Tree, using it to exchange the Divine Tree with his sword. He also uses controlled Amaterasu flames to support Naruto's attacks. 419

Later Investigations

Following the war, Sasuke conducts reconnaissance for Nanfeng. He discovers Otsutsuki seals, enters a white space connected to Otsutsuki figures, and identifies a golden tracking mark placed on Hinata by Otsutsuki Toneri. 455

He later investigates continuous genjutsu, Human Bomb incidents, and the surviving members of the Lightning Flash Group. Though he can be harsh and destructive in carrying out his judgment, he also protects civilians, evacuates villagers with Shadow Clones, and investigates threats targeting ordinary people. 459 463 466 467

Appearance

Sasuke is a black-haired, handsome Uchiha boy whose usual expression is cool and distant. His appearance and reserved attitude make him exceptionally popular among female classmates. 11 150

• Black hair and a pale, composed appearance. 150
• Scarlet Sharingan eyes when activated; later develops six-pointed-star Mangekyo patterns, Eternal Mangekyo patterns, and a transformed Rinnegan. 154 256 462
• Typically carries himself with a cold, intimidating expression, though he occasionally smiles to put civilians at ease. 462
• Wields a long sword in close combat. 247

Personality

Sasuke begins as proud, solitary, and intensely focused on surpassing Itachi. His coldness partly stems from unfamiliarity with others rather than simple indifference; he prefers training to socializing and reacts sharply when his clan is mentioned. 14 16

His rivalry with Naruto and Nanfeng forces him to acknowledge that talent alone is insufficient. He develops greater self-control, particularly in resisting the Cursed Seal's temptation, and becomes more willing to trust allies in combat. 18 61 264

Sasuke is observant and analytical. He studies expressions with the Sharingan, identifies flaws in enemy stories, and recognizes patterns connecting otherwise unrelated incidents. 459 463 462

Later, his pursuit of duty and revenge can make him emotionally detached and ruthless. He destroys a village after judging its inhabitants responsible for their own actions, yet continues to protect civilians caught in dangerous incidents. 463 466

Abilities & Skills

Sharingan

Sasuke's inherited Uchiha dōjutsu grants enhanced perception, predictive combat reading, copying ability, and genjutsu aptitude.

• Progresses from one tomoe to three tomoe through intense trauma and battle. 14 40 122
• Can track extremely fast movements, though his body does not always initially match what his eyes can perceive. 262
• Can copy conventional ninjutsu and hand seals, but cannot replicate Kekkei Genkai techniques solely through the Sharingan. 40
• Breaks powerful genjutsu through ocular power, external chakra, and Cursed Seal chakra. 247 248
• Uses the Sharingan to judge whether others are lying by studying their expressions. 463

Mangekyo and Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan

Sasuke awakens Mangekyo Sharingan through emotional trauma, then receives Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan after Nanfeng fuses his eyes with Itachi's.

• Amaterasu — Produces black flames that consume ordinary Fire Release; Sasuke later manipulates the flames into alternate offensive forms. 249 419
• Susanoo — Manifests a chakra warrior for offense and defense; his Eternal Mangekyo grants a complete form. 256 284
• Eternal Mangekyo greatly reduces the eye strain associated with Amaterasu and other Mangekyo techniques. 419
• His Mangekyo is vulnerable to extreme mental and physical strain, and its power is not sufficient to fully resist Kabuto's control. 252

Rinnegan

Sasuke's left eye evolves into a Rinnegan-like eye during the war, later becoming fully recovered and transformed.

• Amenotejikara — Swaps the positions of targets; Sasuke first uses it to exchange the Divine Tree with his sword. 419
• Chibaku Tensei — Seals Tailed Beasts and allows Sasuke to draw on their chakra as reserve energy, temporarily making him their jinchūriki. 441
• His Rinnegan grants formidable perception, but it initially fails to identify the source of a continuous genjutsu affecting Haku and Zabuza. 459
• His Rinnegan chakra reserves are described as comparable to Naruto's, though Sasuke lacks Naruto's Sage Mode. 441

Lightning Release

Sasuke uses lightning chakra to enhance both speed and offensive power.

• Stimulates his own cells with lightning chakra to boost reaction speed and movement. 40 247
• Fully masters Chidori and later uses Raikiri in combat. 96 123
• Forms Kirin by using Chidori to guide natural lightning toward a target. 250
• Can combine lightning chakra with Sharingan perception to barely keep pace with Killer B's speed. 262

Fire Release and Weapon Technique

Sasuke retains traditional Uchiha combat arts alongside his ocular techniques.

• Uses the Great Fireball Technique from an early age and later clashes directly with Itachi's Fire Release. 18 248
• Demonstrates high-speed kunai exchanges against Itachi, with both brothers reading and countering each other's movements through their Sharingan. 247 248
• Uses Shadow Clones to evacuate civilians and Earth Release to repair damaged buildings during later missions. 463

Cursed Seal

Orochimaru's Cursed Seal grants Sasuke explosive power but threatens his mental stability.

• Amplifies his darkness and initially creates an addictive sensation of strength. 61
• Sasuke can regain control by remembering that unmastered power is dangerous. 61
• Its chakra can merge with his Sharingan and help him break Itachi's genjutsu. 247
• The seal later drives a far more severe full-body transformation during his battle with Itachi. 251

Equipment / Weapons / Items

• Long sword — Used in close-quarters combat against Itachi and other opponents. 247
• Kunai and shuriken — Core tools for feints, projectile exchanges, and close combat. 123 247
• Soldier Pills — Used to restore stamina and chakra during combat. 96
• Sealing scrolls — Uses or prepares sealing methods during conflicts involving reanimated shinobi and Tailed Beast chakra. 350 441

Relationships

• Itachi Uchiha — Older brother and Sasuke's original measure of strength. Sasuke initially hates him for the massacre, then learns of Itachi's sacrifice and fights beside him as an ally. 11 257 258
• Akiya Nanfeng — Rival, mentor-like training partner, medical protector, and trusted confidant. Sasuke calls him “Big Brother” and keeps the origin of Nanfeng's eyes secret. 18 126 165
• Uzumaki Naruto — Friend, rival, and “destined brother.” Their rivalry drives both their growth, but they repeatedly combine their abilities in decisive battles. 18 153 399
• Orochimaru — Teacher and would-be possessor of Sasuke's body. Sasuke seeks his training despite fully understanding Orochimaru's intentions. 123 150
• Sakura Haruno — Classmate who openly admires Sasuke. He is initially indifferent and later avoids addressing her feelings directly. 11 449
• Karin, Suigetsu, and Jūgo — Temporary companions assembled after Sasuke stages Orochimaru's death; they search for Itachi and later return to assist Sasuke and Itachi against Kabuto. 237 267
• Fugaku and Mikoto Uchiha — Parents killed in the Uchiha massacre and later reanimated by Kabuto. Sasuke is forced to fight Fugaku while acknowledging his parents' lack of control over their bodies. 348 349
• Haku and Zabuza Momochi — Nanfeng's subordinates who seek Sasuke's help during later genjutsu-related incidents and address him as “Lord Sasuke.” 459
