not to be a sasuke basher, but i'm personally not particularly a fan. I mean he is a jerk to naruto (and everyone for that matter), and I dont think he is the strongest ninja around (granted he is strong enough to take on kage with zetsu's help). Not trying to sasuke rage but unlike half of nb im not hanging out for his new ems. Just wanted to know what people think because obviously lots of people like him---am i missing something important?

its the way mashishi kishmoto layed it out he made sasuke look all awesome compared to the main character that probably the main reason why people like him so much.i aint a fan of sasuke but i prefer him more then naruto only reason is naruto only uses shadow clones and rasengan and naruto wins all of most ever fight so its kinder more predictable when he goes into a battle mashishi kishmato fatal mistake was to call the manga naruto apart from that he is the greatest artist and manger writer in the 20th century

Well, I can't speak for other people, but i'll boil down my reasons for liking Sasuke to three things (in no particular order):

1. He is a handsome character. This just has to do with nature: people like other people who are "good-looking". I like to associate myself with characters who are good-looking like Deidara, Sasuke, etc. I feel like the character you like most is a representation of who you are and what you like. Sasuke represents an image that I personally think looks cool. (No, I am not a homosexual, in case you are wondering). This aesthetic appeal also includes his jutsu, his sword, etc.

2. He's an avenger. Tell me, who doesn't like revenge stories? I'm not talking about petty revenge like when your sister drinks your soda so you decide to hide her belongings. I'm talking about justice. Granted, Sasuke is being manipulated and we may or may not agree with his own idea of 'justice', but I think Sasuke truly believes that he has to do what he's planning on doing. He truly believes that by destroying Konoha, he will be avenging his brother. I don't condone his actions, but I sympathize with him, which brings me back to my next point.

3. He's a victim. Some may be quick to jump on the band-wagon when it comes to hating Sasuke, but some forget that Sasuke is a victim of his clan's legacy, a victim of the leaders of the Hidden Leaf Village, and also a victim of his brother (who was also saved by Itachi, ironically). I'm not saying that being a victim liberates him from the wrong he's committed and the evil he's embracing -he's still responsible for the choices he makes. Nevertheless, despite the fact that Sasuke is still responsible, he's still a victim of his environment (aren't we all?), or so to speak, and I sympathize with that.

In the end, I don't like what Sasuke is becoming, but I do hope that he will be saved by Naruto: whether it means being transformed, or being killed by him. There's a lot of depth to the character of Sasuke, and that's why he's my favorite character in the Naruto manga.

he's a "victim" and an "avenger", yeah right,honestly he's tha most messed up moron there is in Naruto. It really p**sses alot of people and sometimes i hate Naruto himself because of Sasuke and him being his "friend", alot of people around me say Naruto may hav some kind of gay attachment to Sasuke. if anything, Sasuke should never have been created.

I don't like Sasuke at all. I always thought he was a jerk in the first part. My percentage of likeing him was 0.02%. In part, one decimal was taken away because of how he carried himself throughout the part.

When he killed Danzou, he gained a few points (I hate that dude so much). He lost them when he tried to killl Karin as well (I may not like her, but I didn't want her dead by the hands of Sasuke. I prefer Hinata or Sakura's hand).

Then, I gained an interest in the SauNaru pairing, which furthered my hate at Sasuke because he practically just left Naru-chan to die.

The only reason I'm hoping the bastard stays alive is for Naru-chan's sake as well as SasuNaru.

so true everything he does is about the nine tails even his shadow clones... i like sasuke because he gets shit done when he is in the manga it is interesting and exciting
Sasuke fanboys...

He gets shit done? lolwut? All his power has been given too him. Nothing special about that.

Naruto OWNED the kyuubi with SM. SM was achieved through hard work.

Itachi ALLOWED Sasuke to win.
