Background / History
Sasuke is the younger brother of Uchiha Itachi and the son of Mikoto and Fugaku Uchiha. As a young child, he eagerly seeks Itachi’s help with training and is visibly attached to his older brother. At Hui Youling’s request, Itachi brings him Three-Color Dango; Sasuke accepts the gift and reluctantly declares that he can be Hui’s friend because she sent it. 4 9
After Hui begins visiting the Uchiha compound, Sasuke meets her through Itachi and initially treats her with open disdain. Itachi assigns the two to train together after Hui first succeeds with the Substitution Technique. Their sessions quickly become a competitive friendship: Sasuke practices the Three Body Technique obsessively, while their spars frequently turn into genuine brawls because neither is willing to concede. 10 11
When Hui leaves Konoha to train under Orochimaru, Sasuke reacts with resentment but converts the separation into a wager over who will be stronger when she returns. He continues receiving combat instruction from Itachi during her absence. 11 28
Hui’s return intensifies Sasuke’s frustration at being repeatedly outmatched in sparring. He runs off after losing and admits, through his anger, that Hui’s strength has become another obstacle he feels compelled to overcome. Hui’s reassurance about his own potential and Itachi’s support helps him recover from the episode. 21 22
At the Ninja Academy’s opening, Sasuke notices Hui’s absence and approaches Naruto after recognizing him as the “idiot brother” Hui mentioned. Their exchange immediately devolves into insults, establishing their early rivalry. 49
Personality
Sasuke is proud, competitive, and easily provoked when his abilities are questioned. He refuses to admit defeat, trains intensely to close gaps in strength, and reacts badly to being surpassed—particularly by Hui, whose combat ability repeatedly frustrates him. 11 22 28
He presents himself as aloof and dismissive, often hiding his investment in others behind insults or indifference. Despite claiming that he does not want to see Hui, he eagerly pursues her when she returns to Konoha; despite mocking Naruto, he seeks him out at the Academy because of their shared connection to Hui. 21 22 49
Sasuke’s strongest emotional attachment is to Itachi. He actively seeks his brother’s attention, values his guidance, and is deeply affected by the thought that Itachi cannot always remain at his side. 9 22
