The Uchiha were a very small clan, they didn't kill any innocent women and children!, they all knew the plan and had a united front, Sasuke was the only child and the only one who didn't know what was going on! It's too bad the Uchiha had to go but they were clearly in the wrong... Sasuke has very poor footing for his vengefullness!!At the moment his clan was murdered by his own brother (whom he looked up to and admired) he was just a kid. You expect a kid to understand why his clan was slaughtered? Yes, he was training to be a shinobi but at that moment he was still a kid.
Plus even though the Council was kind of justified to stop the Uchiha's from taking over the village, that didn't mean they had to kill the whole clan. Innocent children, women and even men were slaughtered; most of them didn't even knew about the plan to attack Konoha. You think that's fair? You think that a village is allowed to kill innocent people just to stop a few of their clan?
It would have been fair if they had stopped the ones who planned to take over the town. They could have been killed. But they had no reason to kill the innocent clan members.
So sorry but I don't agree with you. You can't expect of a child, who has just lost everyone in his clan by the hands of his own brother, to understand why they were killed. That's asking too much. And in this case, while Sasuke should have respected Itachi's wish to not attack Konoha, I can understand why he still wants revenge.
Of course killing everyone in the village is not justified, but the council just has to accept that they can't control everything *shrugs* They think they can get away with murdering a whole clan, with a lot of innocent people in it. They should have expected that Sasuke would want revenge *shrugs*
Question is if Sasuke will get his revenge or Naruto gets him first and convinces him to not do it
Well do u remember why the uchiha were suspected? Cos Madara Uchiha attacked Hashirama, thats why it was some of the top knots was suspicious. If u also remember, Hizune settled the matter by creating the konoha police force which comprised only of the uchiha (But danzo kept an eye on their activities, plus being spied, is not a valid reason for a coup cos u wldnt know if u were being spied), the were the protector of the konoha citizens and they were turning against those they were supposed to protect. Also ONLY the danzo and the council treated the uchiha bad, did u see anything in the civillian attitude that insulted the uchiha in any way? No, they all loved and respected them.According to what I remember from the manga, I may be wrong. The Uchihas started to be treated as second rate citizens. Moved to the borderparts of the village and then spied on, so they simply retaliated. To simplify, in Pein´s words, EVERYTHING IS MEANINGLESS UNDER OVERWHELMING POWER. Konoha had the upper hand so it did what it needed to do for self-preservation. In the real world that overwhelming power is usually the country with the most influence, strength and control. I see your point but since you do realize the difference between a national act and an individual act, you should be able to see Sasuke´s reasoning. He is no longer a soldier, he is a mercenary.
yep and wanting to justify his actions despite that they dont make sense at all is sort of fanboyishit's because people could understand what sasuke did until he decided to kill every citizen of konoha. until then his actions were more or less reasonable, which is why people now are trying to find reasons for his doings. nevertheless, his current reasoning is a big plothole and doesnt make sense at all.
Well if uchiha wants the kage title they are going to just kill off the current kage and hand over the title? They wld have to perticipate when there was an election after the kage died. Also if u remember, Hizune formed the Konoha police force which included only uchiha's and effectively gave them control of konoha law and order in their hands. Also do try to remember the council ppl were scum and uchiha-phobic, so they are the source of all the trouble. Sasuke can kill them off anytime or better have them publicly humilated after making them confess and then execute them. But what did the other ppl of konoha do?again i ask this question what did the uchihas want power(hokage title) right so what prevented the village from giving it to them to enable peace continue instead of marginalizing them and then expecting them to accept it after all u cannot say that jiraiya who they wanted to be the fifth or kakashi had more will of fire or passion for the village compared to itachi or shishu, and besides those who say that sasuke is in the wrong u all simply do not get it no one in their right minds would stay peacefully in a village that is responsible for the losses in their life this is the reason why itachi never wanted sasuke to find out about what he did and seriously i would have been a shocked if after hearing the story sasuke went back
Nicely put, sasuke is in fact a victim and a kind of a tragic hero, all he did till he killed itachi was good works, but after that he joined akatusuki, attaked bee and the summit he became a criminal. Even that is forgiveable as he did not do much lasting damage (Raikage wld deny that but he DID lose an arm) then again his drive to kill innocents of konoha is understandable but not justified (u wld mad to justify mass murder). The elder deserve their punishment but not others. Do u think EVERYONE in konoha deserves to die?I would feel bad for Sasuke, getting your whole family killed in front him by his older brother, then waste he whole life training to kill said older brother and once you do, you learn that your supposed evil older brother was ordered to kill your family by the very village that you grew up to protect (Except Sasuke betrayed them) That'll mess anyone one.
A very small clan? Where on earth did you get that from? They were the police force of the village, do you really think they would have been that if they were a small clan? And please show me the pages where it's stated that every Uchiha knew of the plan. You seem to forget that not every Uchiha was a shinobi, and I don't think they would have all agreed on the plan. And I seriously doubt Sasuke was only childThe Uchiha were a very small clan, they didn't kill any innocent women and children!, they all knew the plan and had a united front, Sasuke was the only child and the only one who didn't know what was going on! It's too bad the Uchiha had to go but they were clearly in the wrong... Sasuke has very poor footing for his vengefullness!!
Did you read all the comments? The ones, including me, who are explaining Sasuke's actions aren't justifying it. We explain why he reacts that way, but in no way do we justify his actions. Again understanding something and agreeing with something is something entirely different.yep and wanting to justify his actions despite that they dont make sense at all is sort of fanboyish
How funny ppl dont notice when other ppl say that Danzo, The elders and the ROOT deserve to be killed (cos of their crimes) by sasuke as it his right to vengeance.its funny, i see everyone talking about the poor innocents of konoha. how they had nothing to do with anything. but what about the little kids that were probably killed in the uchiha massacre. what about that old lady that was sweeping the floor. i havent heard anyone say a word about them.
its also partly hirunzen's fault seeing as how he would have to decide the next kage but instead of choosing shishu who was probably the best choice for the position he waited for one of his own (jiraiya) who was no where to be found and like i said before from what we know about both shishu and itachi it turns out they both probably deserved the hokage position so why did they not get it why wait for jiraiya all this just shows that truly the uchihas where being marginalized and please do not give me that excuse of konoha police crap imagine u want to be the president but get drafted as the state security police there is no way u accept.Well if uchiha wants the kage title they are going to just kill off the current kage and hand over the title? They wld have to perticipate when there was an election after the kage died.

sasuke only joined to get stronger and kill his brother. It was Itachi that joined first and maybe sasuke is upset Because he joined? cause ur basically sayin sasuke wanted itachi 2 joinThis is ridiculous i understand why sasuke is upset (just like the countless other shinobi how have lost so much ) but this is getting utterly ridiculous .........Ninjas = Soldiers .
If you are not ready for the sacrifice and burden of being one them dont join
Example = Me , joining the army then crying after they hand me a top secret mission to kill someone i know or love , if you dont want it then dont join ,
There is no law that states you have to be a shinobi or join the anbu etc ... itachi signed up , which meant he was prepared and knew full well that decision like that come in the field of being a shinobi
Sasuke needs to get his brain out the story books and live real life
...
Example if a soldier in a army today behaves like sasuke , he would have been eliminated so loooooong ago and dont even start with naruto..:sy:
Any way its a fictional character living in a fictional world with a fictional story but sometimes just reading it pisses me off
So u JUSTIFY sasuke killing everyone in the village?what you say sounds good on paper... but its difficult to let go when you are really angry... all logic fails when you feel betrayed.. (in short also see the emotional side!)
i know u will say shinobi has to set aside this but he is a human after all.
No, I think he's trying to say that Sasuke's actions are understandable if you look at what he has been through. Of course him wanting to kill off the entire village can't be justified at all, but it's understandable when you take into account that he probably lives by the saying 'An eye for an eye'.So u JUSTIFY sasuke killing everyone in the village?
When a dog goes mad and starts biting everyone, u dont stop it cos its mad?
Plus what is ur OFF-PAPAER experience?
Ok ur a dumba$$ now, get ur timeline right first, when tobi attacked konoha in fourth's reign (Yes Minato was hokage then and about 20), itachi was about 6-7 and so was shisui> So u say a 6-7 year old wld have to be chosen as Hokage? Also by the time Hizune died, uchiha were massacared (itachi was about 14-15 then) with with itachi fled and shisui died, so there was no chance. So get ur history lessons first b4 u post.its also partly hirunzen's fault seeing as how he would have to decide the next kage but instead of choosing shishu who was probably the best choice for the position he waited for one of his own (jiraiya) who was no where to be found and like i said before from what we know about both shishu and itachi it turns out they both probably deserved the hokage position so why did they not get it why wait for jiraiya all this just shows that truly the uchihas where being marginalized and please do not give me that excuse of konoha police crap imagine u want to be the president but get drafted as the state security police there is no way u accept.
