I think he's well developed the many changes he went through makes him a great character. What about You?

As long as he honors queen Sakura, and worships princess Sarada he is alright with me. I do like Sasuke though, I never hated him, I didn't like him when he was being a jackass, even though he still answered Sakura.

But in terms of being a ninja, which this manga is about, he did great.

Known Nrutobase Uchiha hater here.

I want to root for him often, especially when he comes across as human, has a varied moveset and cares about anything but 'revenge'. Forest of Death, Sasuke Retrieval Arc, Boruto, Killer Bee battle and meeting the Hokage are all great times for the character.

Adult Sasuke is a fantastic character but he took a long time to get there for a 15 year-long manga. His tear at the end of the Valley battle is one of my favourite moments in the entire manga, says it all. Maturity and vulnerability that should've been there since the start rather than robotic, Uchiha power fantasy.

He's an easy character to project onto or read into because he has as many expressions as Kristen Stewart in any given Twilight movie. I love how his arc is being a tool of many other people's agendas and through Shippuden in the War he's finally able to come to a place where he can truly make his own decisions about his fate rather than playing to somebody else's tune. His static expression can just sometimes ruin all nuance of that progress. The way he treats others can also make him off-putting but it's all understandable. His cold moments or involvement/interaction with Naruto, Sakura and Itachi for most of Shippuden are usually his weaker moments.

I never say it enough on here, just because of the overwhelmingly loud Uchiha fanbase doing it already- but I really like Sasuke. Adult Sasuke has the sense of humour and grace of his brother with his own sense of mature, learned humility and respect. But he's still no Zuko.

His story was touching and his character overall is just badass consistently throughout the series. I need to see how farther he develops in Boruto

Disrespectful characters are unappealing to me and I usually like it when the likes of Bee, Madara and Sasuke discipline him

His moveset is really great up until the Itachi battle. Him using Kirin is the last moment where I liked him.

sasuke the wondering god. choosen to walk on the earth to take in its vast glory and might and learn secrets beyond anyone's belief/comprehension, to witness the beautiful gifts the gods before him has left, that only a few could only fantasize about.

a worthy end for a true king, simiular to the end with thanos in the infinity wars. spoiler alrt: be becomes a farmer.

and then thiers naruto who stayed

Part 1 and most of Part 2 Sasuke is immature, cynical, selfish, illogical and just a terrible person. Placing revenge above everything even his own health. Endangering and using every person around him without remorse and then coming back like nothing ever happened without so much as a sorry and claiming to be the next Hokage?

How people can love anything except Adult Sasuke is well beyond me.

Cliche edge lord so to speak.

Never found his character very appealing.

There are tons in NV, whose character is easily superior tbh.

His blunders and act of nonchalance is what makes him a better character imo. He's not the most mentally stable.

Is he not nice, and naive enough for you? Realistically, Naruto and Sasuke would have been QUITE similar if it weren't for Naruto's unrealistic personality standards.
