Background & History

Madara was the former patriarch of the Uchiha Clan and one of the dominant shinobi of the Warring States period. Alongside Senju Hashirama, he helped end the era's clan warfare and establish Konohagakure, though their shared dream of peace later diverged into opposing methods. 5 130

After awakening the Mangekyō Sharingan, Madara discovered the Uchiha stone tablet and later encountered Black Zetsu, who presented himself as Madara's will. Following his battle with Hashirama and transplantation of Hashirama's flesh and blood, Madara awakened the Rinnegan and began arranging the Eye of the Moon Plan through Obito and Nagato. 183

Ito Hirofumi summons Madara from the Underworld through a starter Golden Summoning. Madara initially believes he may have been revived through Rinne Tensei and that his plan has succeeded, only to realize that he has instead become Ito's summoned undead. 3 4 The system prevents him from harming Ito; if Ito dies, Madara will return to the Underworld. 4

Madara initially resents his status as a Summoning Beast, but Ito's knowledge of his ideals, the truth behind Black Zetsu's manipulation, and the destruction of the Uchiha Clan gradually change his outlook. He agrees to guide Ito's cultivation and ultimately accepts him as a disciple in all but formal wording. 13 17 89

Appearance

Madara is a tall, imposing man with thick, spiked black hair and a commanding presence capable of intimidating others even without releasing chakra. 3 92

• Wears red Warring States-era armor when first summoned. 3
• Has distinctive, unconventional spiky hair. 3
• Possesses the Rinnegan in his resurrected prime state. 7
• In Six Paths Form, his hair turns white, his skin pales, and he manifests a white robe marked with magatama patterns. 219
• His Six Paths Form produces a red Nine-Tomoe Rinnegan on his forehead, Truth-Seeking Orbs, and a black staff. 219

Personality

Madara is intensely proud, confrontational, and deeply conscious of his reputation as the Uchiha Clan's legendary warrior. He reacts badly to humiliation, particularly the implication that he was summoned cheaply or that he has been made to look foolish. 15 195 He is also quick to anger when Senju Tobirama calls him an “evil Uchiha,” though their hostility frequently becomes comedic. 41 42

Despite his cold and domineering manner, Madara becomes invested in Konoha and its people. He trains Ito diligently, scouts Ryūchi Cave for future Sage Art students, works with the Hokages to trap Black Zetsu, and quietly comforts Uzumaki Karin after Kusagakure's destruction. 18 196 214 347

His closest bond remains with Hashirama. Madara openly denies caring about him, yet repeatedly seeks his attention, considers Hashirama's feelings before killing Tobirama, and eagerly develops combined techniques with him. 36 42 80
