Some Interesting Facts about Kishi and Sasuke

Hakuren · 12-22-2012, 07:02 AM

There are credible sources, such as the interviews and talks he had in the past. However, linking them would be against the rules of Viz's illegal image and linking.

However, whether you want to believe such a fact or not is entirely up to you. I don't stand here to argue over, but to simply discuss about such facts that can get some parts of the fanbase thinking, even myself.

The first and most less known statement is that Kishimoto thinks Sasuke is the worst type of character, because nobody can relate due to his genius.

The second and more well-known fact is that Kishimoto never intended to create Sasuke. To put it simply; everyone's favorite character was created at the urge of Kishimoto's editor. Without that editor, Sasuke might not even exist.

It's rather interesting to think about. If Kishimoto never intended to create Sasuke while he was rough drafting and creating the manga. Makes me truly wonder if he was going to create a character like him but not exactly as Sasuke is. How successful would Naruto had been and what kind of plot would it take before, if anything he had in his mind for before the idea of Sasuke Uchiha came along.

No one still likes Sasuke..

Souret · 12-22-2012, 07:49 AM

In that case I don't like the editor. Didn't he prevent Hidan being given more abilities too?

Sort of.

Kishimoto intended to give Hidan's scythe numerous tricks but he didn't have time to draw them all out.

Wow. That's crazy. I like sasuke when he is not a psycopath.

Kakashi Hatake_Yamato · 12-22-2012, 09:00 AM

i thought kishi loved sasuke

Black King · 12-22-2012, 09:02 AM

I'm pretty sure it was Mr.Yahagi. He suggested that the main character should have a rival, thus Sasuke was born. I don't think the story would've picked up speed without Sasuke.

Ironically, Sasuke was named after a ninja series that Kishi read, called Sasuke. That's kinda why Sasuke was designed to be all formal and whatnot.

Fun-fact, Tenten was a fan made character. Haha!

Hakuren · 12-22-2012, 09:12 AM

It never said Kishimoto did not like Sasuke.

He simply stated he thought Sasuke to be a bad character type to relate to.

Souret · 12-22-2012, 09:18 AM

I like which ever fan came up with Tenten XD

LilHinataGirl · 12-22-2012, 09:20 AM

I never liked Sasuke

@BK that's so cool I never knew that o.o

athoatho · 12-22-2012, 09:24 AM

I think sasuke will be good and not psychopath ( my knowledge is almost limited to the anime )

JLI2infinity · 12-23-2012, 06:15 PM

This is cool. It would be hard to imagine the series without Sasuke no matter how much he irritates me. I wish Kishi had time to give Hidan more abilities.

The relationship between editor and mangaka is strange. A lot of times I want to side with the author on things, but at the same time the editor helps keep the author focused, punctual, and efficient.

Either way when it comes to the stories of big mangas I think it's cool for the editor to be involved in the early stages but once the author has crafted his or her vision the editors need to back off. It was editors who pushed Toriyama and Togashi to extend DBZ and YYH past their primes and although those two great authors were able to pull off good endings a lot of the final arc seems forced with the authors seeming constipated when it comes to creating new powers to challenge the main characters.

Then again I did hear that Togashi originally wanted to end YYH with them all being actors in a movie with personalities completely different than their characters and that it was editors who spared fans from that tragedy, but that just sounds like a rumor.

PrinceofPeace · 12-27-2012, 03:36 PM

I love saskue cuz he stopped narusaku

Azal · 12-27-2012, 04:03 PM

I'm now trying to imagine Naruto without Sasuke

Really, entire story arcs would be missing. Orochimaru wouldn't be as important(though he really isn't that important anymore), all the story would be about is the akatsuki trying to nab Naruto and the other jinnjuriki(sorry for bad spelling)

Sasuke is that needed ingredient in the story

Sir Michael · 12-29-2012, 09:43 PM

Kishi makes out with a Sasuke poster.

Hakuren · 12-30-2012, 07:48 AM

It's quite funny, though. Kishimoto must've been really grateful to his editor for the idea of Sasuke since he wanted to make a movie with Sasuke as the main character but couldn't. Poor man.

A MOVIE WITH SASUKE AS THE MAIN CHARACTER KISHI DO THIS NOW and as to sasuke not being a character i honestly think naruto would not have made it to shippuden without sasuke he is as much a part of the naruto story as naruto himself how he dosent appear in the series as much as naruto yet still makes such a big impact on naruto as a character and the series itself is what makes me love the series and i especially love how he is an uchiha i think it adds so much more to the story f the cursed clan that its amazing without sasuke naruto would be a completely different show and as to him not being a relatible character he is actualy a wierd case he may not be relatible but he makes naruto that much more a relatible character in a way its more like he is not relatible to me but to some one i no now a series without sakura that would work

I think Sasuke may have turned evil and stupid as Kishi's way to get back at the editor for being stupid, though this just might be conspiracy theorising at work.
