Background / History
Kagami is a distant blood relative of Qile through the Uchiha Clan. He accompanied Qile when the latter secretly listened to Madara's clan meeting, then worried that he had abandoned Qile when the situation became dangerous. Madara dismissed him without punishment, greatly relieving Kagami. 1 2 4
After learning that Qile had moved into Madara's residence, Kagami apologized for leaving him alone and was invited to join Qile's training. Qile falsely presented the invitation as Madara's order, but Madara tacitly allowed Kagami to remain once he saw Kagami's admiration and discipline. 22 26
Kagami trained alongside Qile in stance work, sword swings, and hand seals. Madara later acknowledged his perseverance and talent by giving him the scroll for Dragon Flame Song, a privilege especially significant because Kagami's family lacked the merit needed to access many high-level clan techniques. 22 27
He became the only Uchiha child enrolled in the Ninja Academy at the time, reportedly sent by Elder Yan to demonstrate the clan's support for the Hokage's education system. During the entrance examination, he defeated Longtao and Senju Kaze, earning placement in Class A. 36 38
Personality
Kagami is unusually gentle and considerate for an Uchiha in Qile's view. He feels genuine guilt over leaving Qile during the clan meeting, worries about Qile's decisions, and repeatedly supports him in training. 22 25 27
He is intensely respectful toward Madara and highly motivated by the Uchiha Clan's honor. When told of the demanding training schedule at Madara's home, he accepted it without hesitation and declared that he feared neither hardship nor fatigue for the clan's glory. 22
Despite his discipline, Kagami is socially straightforward and easily embarrassed. Qile's loud cheering during his entrance match flustered him, and he is frequently late to morning training despite otherwise being dependable. 24 36 38
