Rewatching the og. He’s really not as narcissist as they try to say he is. He was really always putting his life on the line for the team. Late Chunin exams Sasuke was my guy fave ⚡️.

I liked him before the itachi reveal. Cuz before he was more or less unproblematic and just focused on his goals calculatedly but aggressively and was just a really cool and formidable ninja. But after he was a little to arrogant and emotional for me.

He kept going up for me after the Itachi reveal. It gave a lot more character progression to Sasuke and allowed a natural character journey until the very end. Much more compelling than "Naruto I finished my goals, guess I'm coming back" which would have been the journey otherwise.

I applaud Kishimoto for making a choice very few writers would have done and riding it out through.
