my takeaway on the infamous “sasuke’s a bitch” debate A THREAD
⚠️MAJOR NARUTO SPOILERS⚠️
ft. kingweddie & imaslutforsasuke on tiktok 🤩✨🧚

(don’t come for me I’m not hating I’m just spittin fax!!)
ok so imaslutforsasuke explains that sasuke isn’t a bitch for leaving the leaf bc of how the leaf wronged him. she also says that kakashi had no reason to hate the leaf & naruto remained positive even after how the leaf treated him bc he had support.
her whole argument is that sasuke isn’t a bitch for leaving bc the leaf wronged him & while she isn’t wrong, she isn’t entirely right either.
sasuke’s initial reason for leaving the leaf village was for power, he wanted more power and felt that he couldn’t achieve that residing IN the village.
sasuke had absolutely no knowledge of how much involvement the leaf village even had in his clan’s massacre let alone that his brother was forced to eradicate their entire clan. so how could his hatred for the leaf be the reason he left ?? it wasn’t.
sasuke left to get stronger to eventually be able to kill his brother. NOW it was ONLY AFTER ITACHI WAS ALREADY DEAD that sasuke found out the true motives behind the massacre of his clan.
kingweddie’s first claim was that sasuke’s a bitch bc other characters had a worse/harder childhood but they didn’t leave the village or try to destroy it.
he compares kakashi’s childhood with sasuke’s saying that kakashi had a worse childhood but remained “good”. imaslutforsasuke then said that kakashi didn’t have a reason to leave or hate the village.
she completely disregarded that kakashi knows how sasuke feels. kakashi has seen the ppl he considered most important to him die one after the other but never left the village. he believed it ends one way for those who chose the path of revenge.
“but the final days of those who speak of revenge are never good. It’s tragic.” (Naruto, ep.107)

time stamp around 13:10
that scene provides knowledge to not only the viewers but also SASUKE that he isn’t alone and revenge isn’t always the right path. KNOWING this sasuke STILL decides to leave the village.
either way the first statement stands. sasuke chose to leave for power and then changes the focus of his resentment from his brother to the leaf making her argument redundant.
sasuke is a complex character who’s morals and actions were clouded by the actions of others but the argument of him being a “bitch” is valid to those who see what he did as unnecessary.
however that also means that those who see nothing wrong with the decisions he made are also entitled to believe he was completely in the right.
personally I don’t think “sasuke’s a bitch” but I do believe that most of what he did he needed to do in order to find not only his but his brother’s truth. sasuke is a beautifully written character and I’m tired ppl shitting on what homeboy thought was right !!
the journey sasuke took from the moment he left the hidden leaf village to well after itachi’s death was necessary for his growth as a character so like it or not it was needed in the end.
[END THREAD]

I’m so sorry this was so long the videos she made irked me not bc she disagreed with kingweddie but bc she got parts of the story wrong dispite being a huge sasuke stan and ignored other parts of kakashi’s storyline 😔🤚🏻
