Sasuke in fact didn't need Itachi's MS, he just took it to avoid blindness so don't include EMS in his development.

1. Sasuke awakened "straight comma" which is his MS design.

now who worked harder? Indra Sasuke or Itachi

I would say Sasuke. Itachi is more naturally gifted.

Probably Sasuke since he wasn't nearly as much of a genius as Itachi was so things were harder for him to learn

Itachi.. I think Lol , but maybe Sasuke Lol but who knows? Not Indra though.. Why did you say Indra anyway?

I don't think we could really judge the work ethic or trying harder of those two. Itachi lived with a disease though, and Sasuke was given curse seal, snake summon, jugo's "power" , Sasuke did his own research though and he did learn Uchiha moves after his clan was destroyed.

That means Naruto didn't work hard either...which you obviously dis believe.
Please give the same amount of respect of fanboism you do Naruto as Sasuke and this base will become a better place.

OT: Sasuke, Itachi got handed MS and just spammed genjutsu every chance he got, while Sasuke got handed EMS everything else was his own power.

Naruto does work hard, he's Ashura.

Alright.
There's no such thing as "natural talent" in this series. If you're OP, it's either because you worked hard for it or someone gave you a powerup. That's the way it is.

We see in the manga Itachi being a shinobi...since the age of 4. He's out there and he's doing things. He's out on missions alone at age 7. He's practicing and masters his entire 3-tomoe sharingan at age 8. He's joining Anbu at age 10 and becoming a captain at 13. Then a missing-nin at age 13 and taking down kage-level opponents. It took work to get there. We saw him training in his free time, when he wasn't on missions or keeping Sasuke happy. He worked hard. Talent is not something you're born with...it's what you work for.

Sasuke worked hard as well. However, if you look at it in comparison to their power level and how hard they worked-it's plainly evident who tried harder. Itachi worked for all of that...he took no handouts. If we take away what Sasuke got handed to him and what was planned by Itachi for him...he'd still be stuck at 3-tomoe right about now. xD

It's not wrong to include Sasuke taking Itachi's eyes. Considering that he did in fact need them in order to continue being a shinobi. He burned out his MS in 2 weeks and if he was going to stay blind, he would be an Uchiha fodder.

I like both Sasuke and Itachi for what they are. However, I doubt that you'll like my answer, considering that you're a hard-core Sasuke fan. And other Sasuke fans who think he's the best at everything probably won't like my truthful answer either.

Sasuke Itachi was born a genius so he did and got things faster and maybe effortlessly not to mention all Sasuke did was just to get up to Itachi's level.

sasuke probably worked harder since he had motivation to kill itachi, itachi was just far more talented

Itachi. Like chie said, he was always on missions and had to work for everything.

Sasuke on the other hand got free CM from orochimaru, free MS from itachi, had kakashi teach him chidori...
Nobody taught Itachi anything, he had to do everything by himself.

Itachi, he even allowed Sasuke to kill him so he unlocks the MS Sasuke didn't awaken it by himself.

You mean the Sasuke who received a curse mark? took Itachi's eyes? Got a power-up from Hagoromo?

No doubt in my mind Itachi. He was training since day 1 and through said hard work and natural genius he became anbu

Itachi worked in the way that he sacrificed everything he loved one way or another while still training/being naturally gifted.
