Fun fact: Sasuke and Itachi's mom Mikoto Uchiha wanted to adopt Naruto because she was close friends with his mom Kushina but the dad said no as that would put the Nine Tails power under the Uchiha and did not want conflict with the village

The Uchiha's reaction is logical and justifiable, when you are accused of something you didn't do, obviously you are not going to remain silent... You are going to defend yourself against the accusations that are against you. (Obviously, the possible coup is not the solution, nor is it justifiable).

[@dimelrussell7874]

Fun fact: in the canon, itachi didn’t slaughter his gf like all the others. He used tsukuyomi on her and in the dream she lived out the entirety of her life with itachi (married with kids and grew old) in “one thousandth of one millionth of one billionth of a second” and the shear amount of data in that space or time fried her brain and killed her basically.

Funny thing about that girl if you guys can't tell that's a touchy's love interest but I believe it doesn't show this in the anime and it's something only exclusively stated in the books that when Itachi kills everyone when it comes time for him to kill her he puts her in a genjutsu so she can live her whole life within it where the both of them experience it together

[@richardsaid973]

7:00 lmao "Im going to restore my clan!......and be held by a certain someone" 😂

[@dontmisunderstand6041]

The timelines are super wonky in this series because it feels like there should be more time involved with the history of the ninja villages. The 3rd Hokage was alive before the creation of the ninja village system. That's how little time is involved here. And remember, Sarutobi became hokage at a very young age, due to both hashirama and tobirama dying during the 1st Great Ninja War that happened very shortly after the ninja village system was created.

[@observantwonderer7401]

18:30 they were referring to Kakashi (possibly Minato aswell) come on guys yall just saw Kakashis story and Obitos infinite flashbacks 😓

[@KING_HIMSELF_GAMING]

Fr 🙄 the should have get that

[@samuelmaingi6365]

You were right in your guess being Minato. Because it was stated that Itachi had the second best academy scores in Konoha history, with the first being Minato

[@observantwonderer7401]

@@samuelmaingi6365 yeah I figured that must be part if it. But I Sarutobi and Danzo where more referencing to graduating the academy early which is more Kakashi than Minato (even tho I'm sure Minato also graduated early he wasnt nearly as young as Kakashi)

[@davidnobre5660]

20:25 1 - that happens in real life too, if your place is destroyed and you lose your home you go to where ever place can have you, you don't choose where you go... look what happened to Ukraine 2 - that part of the village was destroyed, some of them had no where to live so what do you mean by "it's horrible the whole family have to move" did you want them to live someone behind? what? it's not cool to put the police headquarters in the outskirts of the village simply because it IS the police HQ (it should be better located) and nothing else they are still inside the village and are still a part of it, none of this would be happening if Kurama hadn't destroyed part of the village As they said, other clans also had to relocate for the same reason, so this had to happen

[@neokai9395]

1.46 I'd say all the Obito re-flashblacks were that, but there the only thing we didn't get to see was Obito as a baby being roast'd by smol Kakashi. But in Itachi's case he is the mangaka inside the manga, next gaiden they'll reconfirm how of a hot topic Itachi was and is

[@Jakehatred666]

These flashbacks and insight into the villages past pre naruto only further highlight how much of a bitch Sarutobi was. Letting Danzo go about his ilicit shady shadow government crap and sowing seeds of chaos for his own benefit.

[@c3p6]

I dont love or hate Sarutobi but I can kinda understand more now that all the 5 Great Villages had shady shit going on for the sake of their own safety and security and whatnot, and Danzo was simply the one who took care of that for the Leaf ( with the Foundation), so he was important and needed in that sense. I still hate that mf tho, especially with the logic that other nations need to suffer in order for Konoha to prosper.

[@venomousteam1732]

All danzo does is spread hatred just to protect the village. He sent the Uchiha in the outskirts of thr village, stole shisui's right eye, used kotoamatsukami at the 5 kage summit

Yup. Everybody thinks he has been manipulated by danzo etc. But nope. He did it with full believe. Itachi isnt withdrawn by clans or a name. He sees the leaf the same way as his clan. He believes that being bound by a clan is the very cause of war. In the previous episode of this his father explains that all these shinobi dont hold a grudge to eachother. It's just a fight between nations. "True Change cannot be made if it is bound by laws and limitations, predictions and imagination.”
