Firstly, he doesn't have curse mark anymore. secondly, it wasn't a gift. It was forced on him, same as the kyubbi was to naruto but people seem to forget that fact. Thirdly, sasuke didn't get mangekyo from itachi. what have you been reading? He gained it from the pain he felt after he learned the truth about itachi. you can't be given MS, pay attention. fourth, sasuke has worked his ass off with just the MS that he earned. 5th, Ems wasn't something he wanted to use, he fought plenty of battles without it because he refused to follow that sort of path even though madara insisted on it. Everyone forgets about that as well.
None of them were at his level, including yamato. Sasuke was far beyond their fighting skills, FAR.
Well if you are going to be a douche about it well then
I will give you the personality points you mentioned, Sasuke DEFINITELY worked hard starting off when he was younger though saying he's like Minato was is a BIT excessive, I mean the main reason that Sasuke has such a skill difference is purely based on his upbringing. I mean Naruto didn't have anybody to teach him this stuff but Sasuke was constantly exposed to it with Itachi and then his dad. So i think calling him a genius is a bit of a stretch, I mean Kakashi made Jounin when he was like 12, THATS GENIUS. but I digress, look seriously, I'm not a Sasuke hater, he's actually a pretty cool character and depending on my mood I like his cool attitude more than Naruto's constant yelping. All I'm saying is that his Mangekyo Sharingan, in particular is sort of ridiculous. I mean it envelops him in this ridiculous spirit body guard that has immense attacks and amazing defense (Susano'o). I mean with Itachi, he got tired using Tsukyomi and Amaterasu (Once for each one) in one day and Sasuke just blows everything up with Amaterasu and to him, Tsukyomi is like nothing, it just seems unfair, JUST his MS I'm not saying Sasuke is an unskilled ninja or something
But it would kind of silly for Kishimoto to introduce a cool new technique and never show it being used. But I agree, constant Susanoo does become a little boring and hax, I prefer his fights with killer bee and deidara. Anyway I think Sasuke was just testing it out and trying to perfect it besides he's blind now. And in Itachi's case he was sick and almost blind so the mangekyou techniques were more taxing. And Sasuke's genjutsu as stated is a far cry from Itachi's.
Thank you. I mean come on, all naruto really did to get sage mode, which he spams the hell out of now, was sit still, then sit still and get beat with a stick. WTH! But sasuke is the over powered one? Just wow
*cough cough* you have to kill your closest friend, in this case it's either itachi or naruto in order to gain MS, and not through pain. The pain is only exceeding his power limits which can be seen when he fought Danzo. He didn't earn MS... for you defeating a half-dead man, you can call a fair earned reward? And it's not just the MS hence it has it's best abilities he has gotten so far
