Sasuke's Amaterasu was a progression of his talent for ninjutsu


Itachi's Tsukuyomi was a progression of his talent for genjutsu


Madara's Susanoo was a progression of his chakra prowess





So do you think there's an MS ability that acts as a progression for copy technique ?



Maybe Sarada who is a reference to the Hindu goddess of knowledge might be the one to unlock an MS with unrestricted Copy jutsu. Her goal is to surpass the Kage with every element KKG after all...

Nope. They are a progression of personality traits:

Sasuke seeks revenge and is consumed by hate and grief: Amaterasu, flames of hell to burn and punish.

Itachi lived his life in lies and lied to others; his entire life was filled with lies and illusions: Genjutsu to weave more lies and a control of time to mould the lies temporarily into a reality.

Obito: He desired to slip out of situations and was obscure as a child: Kamui, where he can literally phase through danger and become obscure by leaving a domain.

Madara: He had a desire to protect his brother: Susanoo became his ultimate shield. He can make clones out of it.

Like how Rinnegan abilities work

Madara had Limbo clones bec he had the desire to exist somewhere else at a different time, in a separate space. His regrets that he didn't live long enough to realize his dream manifested in his limbo clones.
Sasuke had Ameno bec he had the desire to be in the right places at the right time at all times. His ambition to catch up to Itachi at the soonest possible time manifested in his Ameno..

That is my theory.

Edit. Ameno requires the shifting with /replacement to an object. Sasuke would sacrifice anything to hasten and exact his vengeance and purpose.

My argument is having more control over something. Madara is the most proficient Susanoo user because he can make clones out of it. None of them can.

They are both.


Amaterasu is highest level of katon, which is an Uchiha talent


Tsukuyomi is highest level of genjutsu, which is also an Uchiha talent


Susnoo is a manifestation of potent chakra, which is an Uchiha trait



Their personalities determine what abilities they awaken but the abilities are related to Uchiha traits.


You could also argue the experiences the user's faced before awakening MS determines what power they awaken.

I.e : Obito's Kamui would've been useful to saving Rin and avoiding the boulder, Amaterasu is usefull for Sasuke destroying any obsacle in his path and Tsukuyomi would've allowed Itachi to break the will of corrupt leaders without killing them.

Nope. It's an ambiguous ability that doesn't have a strict set of rules so, the readers can identify the limits of its use. Instead it's just a cheap plot tool to give characters an asspull powerup with little to no justification.

This point of view came to my mind when Obito awaken Kamui.He thought he was in hell, a dimension where everything is bad, and he gained the ability to go into another dimension, to escape from hell.
I like this idea that they gain what they truly want/need.

Where did I claim they aren't Uchiha traits?

Shelke, great post. You know Madara had a family of brothers not just one. That could also explain the Limbo Clones. Each one of them representing a significant death in his life.

Five brothers in total, I believe? I do think he was closest to Izuna.

Ehh my opinion on ms is that you get two abilities that stay the same through families.

Ex: Itachi and sasuke are brothers and have the same powers, itachi being better at genjutsu and sasuke having better ama

Obito has no living relatives and is the only one with kamui, this is the same for itachis best friend with ka

And of course we never saw either of madara ms abilities as he loves susanno lol
