OVA
Description
Hailing from Konohagakure's prominent Uchiha clan, Uchiha Sasuke was born on July 23 as the second son of Fugaku and Mikoto Uchiha. He idolized his older brother Itachi throughout childhood, persistently seeking his company despite Itachi's frequent postponements of promised training sessions. Sasuke endured familial neglect as his father prioritized Itachi's prodigious talents, though Itachi occasionally intervened to foster their bonding.
The Uchiha clan massacre irrevocably altered Sasuke's path. At seven, he discovered Itachi standing over their parents' bodies after the clan's slaughter. Itachi subjected him to Tsukuyomi, forcing endless replays of the massacre, and commanded him to seek power through hatred. This trauma reshaped Sasuke into a solitary, cynical figure obsessed with killing Itachi. He excelled academically at Konoha Ninja Academy yet rejected social bonds, dismissing admirers and rivals like Naruto Uzumaki while privately acknowledging Naruto's determination.
Assigned to Team 7 under Kakashi Hatake, Sasuke initially dismissed teammates Naruto and Sakura Haruno as hindrances. Despite his aloofness, shared missions forged camaraderie, compelling him to repeatedly risk his life protecting them. The Chuunin Exams intensified his thirst for power after Orochimaru implanted the Cursed Seal of Heaven. Kakashi taught him Chidori to counter the seal, but Itachi’s effortless defeat of him fueled disillusionment with Konoha’s pace. Convinced Orochimaru offered faster power, Sasuke defected, battling Naruto at the Valley of the End yet sparing him before departure.
After training with Orochimaru for nearly two and a half years, Sasuke absorbed the Sannin to prevent a body takeover and formed Team Hebi (later Taka) to hunt Itachi. Post-conflict, Tobi unveiled Itachi’s truth: Konoha’s leadership ordered the massacre to prevent an Uchiha coup, and Itachi acted to protect Sasuke and the village. This revelation shattered Sasuke, redirecting his vengeance toward Konoha. He obtained Itachi’s eyes to awaken the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan, abandoning allies like Karin during his assault on Konoha representative Danzō Shimura.
The Fourth Shinobi World War accelerated Sasuke’s ideological shifts. Confronting reanimated Hokage with Orochimaru’s aid, he learned of historical conflicts perpetuating hatred. Inspired by Itachi’s sacrifice, he resolved to protect Konoha yet rejected its systems. Post-war, he attempted a revolution by absorbing tailed beasts and confronting Naruto to become a solitary "Hokage" bearing the world’s hatred. Their final battle at Valley of the End left both severely wounded. Naruto’s forgiveness prompted Sasuke’s redemption, compelling him to relinquish his revolution and acknowledge Naruto’s path to peace.
In later years, Sasuke returned to Konoha, married Sakura, and fathered Sarada Uchiha. He undertook extended missions investigating interdimensional threats tied to Kaguya Ōtsutsuki, frequently absent from the village. Though lacking an official title, he earned the moniker "Supporting Kage" (Sasaukage), operating as Konoha’s shadow protector. He mentored Naruto’s son, Boruto Uzumaki, guiding him through challenges while continuing his atonement via covert service.
