  • Itachi Uchiha is my favorite character in Naruto, and he's one of a few characters who impacted my life in a real way. He's introduced as a remorseless serial killer, but is revealed to be one of the deepest, most tragic characters in the show. His relationship with his brother Sasuke Uchiha is especially compelling. This video breaks him down a little bit, with a little commentary on how he affected me. Hope you enjoy this Naruto analysis!

    Itachi Uchiha reminded me to be a responsible older brother again. Although I can't look over that he installed a jutsu (kotoamatsukami) to brainwash his little brother after his death. From a other standpoint that would be a good thing. But compelling his brother to protect the hidden leave even though he wouldn't want to is something I can't take for granted.

      yeah I agree, I definitely was waay more satisfied when he tells Sasuke that he'll love him no matter what path he goes down right before the edo tensei dissipates

    The truth about Itachi episode came out in Japanese 3 days after my big brother was killed, and the day before his funeral. This plot in Naruto always hits so hard, and inspires me to be a big brother as great as they were to my own little siblings. Fuck

    I feel the exact same way about Itachi. He is by far my favorite character in Naruto because of how morally ambiguous he is. He also taught me the importance of being a good brother.

    Part of Itachi’s tragedy is that he was so brainwashed by Danzo and the deep state. Danzo used Sasuke as a bargaining chip pretty much, to get a powerful 13 year old boy to bend to his will. I think Itachi realized that later on and regretted that he was too naive and focused to see the other ways the conflict could’ve been solved. He was just so focused on his brother and that shameful menace Danzo knew it and took advantage of it.

    Ore wa omae o zutto aishiteru ❤️
    I will love you always. Aishiteru is a special word for love that Itachi says to Sasuke before departing. It’s the word used at one’s wedding, a child’s birth, or the deathbed of a child or spouse. This was Itachi’s last word. A man defined by love, who accepted only hatred. This seems to harken back to the two demon statues denoted when Danzo lays out Itachi’s choices. Incredible work, Kishimoto

    Itachi Uchiha is my favorite character ever. I'm purposely not going to watch this video fully because I know it will make me cry.
    I am also going to purposely understate how much Itachi impacted me in real life because, again, I know it will make me too emotional.
    So I'll just say Itachi is the greatest character ever written for me and he taught me extremely important things about life
    I know this is full of vagueness but I'm being as genuine as I can....and thank you for this video @monkfruit

    Im not really that deep into naruto shipuden but im always doing research on Naruto and i feel like the uchiha are so interesting because its like they have aren’t trusted by the village so they start to give in to hate but when u look at the sasuke and obito u can see real human beings in them because they lost their loved ones and they grew to hate the world and i kinda feel for them because im always scared of losing a loved one and then u have itachi who murdered his whole clan and i thought he was evil but then his reincarnation came bck and i cried because itachi makes me want to love my lil bro no matter what even though we dont always see eye to eye(i cried typing this even though it doesn’t seem to make sense lol)

    The love between sasuke and itachi felt artificial, that’s why their war scene didn’t work for me
    I mean , itachi wanted sasuke to hate him , but what is the point of torturing him and destroying his life ?
    Aside from his choice to murder his family which is hilarious tbh

    • @danielstarr9037

      So that Sasuke hated Itachi too much to realize it was an advantageous scenario to the leaf. In a reality defined by child soldiers and constant war, people don’t value the psyche of even their closest loved ones the way we’ve grown used to the past century or 2

      Itachi destroyed the life of a child soldier, so that the child soldier would be strong enough to survive a world so damaged that child soldiers are a reality.

    • @danielstarr9037

      The story of Naruto isn’t just about Naruto making his way to Hokage, it’s also a story of the terrible plight of living as a child soldier in a world mired by generational conflict and constant global hostilities. It may seem unworthwhile to destroy your family to prevent war, but if the alternative is world war fought by mostly children, a 13-15 year old child soldier may disagree. We have to think about the numbing necessary to quell the mind of someone killing people at the age of 4, may also be great enough to boil down casualties as a matter of mathematics, not priorities.

    6:40 - for me this is the worst plot twist ever. At the beginning he already had a compelling backstory. Itachi was a prodigy with a lot of potential and talent and he became arrogant and greedy. All he wanted was power. That's why he murdered his clan and family, that's why he wanted Sasuke to kill his best friend, to take his eyes with his Mangekyo, to cure his blindness and gain more power. He was a hypocrite who pretended to be good but in reality he is a monster. He was even more evil than Orochimaru because he committed a genocide just because he could. Now Shippuden happened and Itachi makes no sense at all. Retcons in manga, anime and even novels. I liked Itachi earlier but now I hate him with every ounce of my soul, every ounce of my heart. Idolizing a mass murderer, abuser and criminal while hating Sasuke who was Itachi's real victim. Itachi didn't love Sasuke, he only manipulated him to do what he wanted him to do. If you call that stuff love I don't know what's wrong with you. For me Itachi is the worst big bro. I would prefer hate instead of this "love"

    "But with us it's different because you and I are flesh and blood. I'm always going to be there for you, even if it's as an obstacle for you to overcome. Even if you DO hate me. That's what big brothers are"
    A part of me wonders if that was foreshadowing for when we learn the truth about Itachi.
