Sasuke Uchiha

Sasuke Uchiha (うちは サスケ Uchiha Sasuke?) is a fictional character as well as the deuteragonist in the Naruto manga and anime series created by Masashi Kishimoto. He is voiced by Yuri Lowenthal in the English version and by Noriaki Sugiyama in the Japanese version.

Biography
In the story, Sasuke is a member of the Uchiha clan, a highly skilled clan of ninjas allied to the village of Konohagakure. His primary motivation throughout the series is to avenge the destruction of his entire clan by killing his brother, Itachi Uchiha, a task he pursues at all costs. While he was initially cold and singularly driven by his revenge, he becomes more empathetic through his relationships with other characters, notably Naruto Uzumaki, whom he comes to consider as a rival. He is now currently a rogue ninja whom after finding the truth about Itachi and his clan's demise swore to destroy Konoha who ordered Itachi to carry it out. However, Sasuke is very confused about his lifepath of revenge and desired to know the truth about the ninja world after seeing his revived brother. After finding out the secrets of the village and the truth about Madara Uchiha from the revived Hokages, Sasuke redeemed himself and joined up with Team 7 to help defeat Madara Uchiha and Obito Uchiha and protect the Ninja World.

Behind the Scenes
Sasuke's design caused difficulties for Kishimoto as he drew the manga scenes, but he has grown to enjoy drawing him. Several anime and manga publications have provided acclaim and criticism of Sasuke's character. While many reviewers have noted his cold and detached attitude and abilities, he has been viewed as a stereotypical "rival" in the mold of several similar characters in other shōnen manga. His personality has also been subject to criticism, with many finding it difficult to like or sympathize with Sasuke's character.
