This and Shippuuden being about Naruto chasing Sasuke around are the biggest issues with this anime. There's a lot of shock value, but it makes no sense. If someone is due diligent enough to kill his entire clan because of a "what if scenario", the same person would also try EVERY SINGLE THING before resorting to this solution. Yet, he didn't try anything. Just went with the BS that "it was the only way".
Itachi cared more about the village than the clan, meanwhile loving his brother. It might have been pointless a little and kinda a rushy decision but Uchiha was on the hatred path anyway, it was in their nature to be against the village one day. The suspicion of them pushed them to plan an attack too. Konoha was much safer without them, their death got rid of the stress of possibly taking over the 9 tails one day. I would say Itachi made right decision, even his parents understood it immediately, as well as Sasuke when he grew up. It’s a sad clan story
This line of thought is very dangerous. Let's kill these guys because it seems like they might attack us anytime soon. This was very hard to believe, both because Itachi was 1 dude (ok, Obito helped, but still, Uchiha were pretty weak then, right? So what threat could they pose?) and the whole clan was A LOT of people; second because if Itachi cared so much about the village, how could he care so little about his own family in order to kill everyone without even trying alternatives? Just because some old people told it was the only way? Nahh... Very hard to grasp.
@@scepto924 the whole reason as to why they were tryna overthrow konoha was because they were being oppressed, had the leave village been a little more inclusive there would’ve been no room for hatred to be born
@ You’re wrong. I think you’re forgetting of the Uchiha clan curse. I love Uchiha but they were a threat unfortunately. The suspicion pushed them to plan the attack but it would happen anyway. Adding up to it Uchiha was very mistaken and manipulated by black zetsu, where he changed the whole clan purpose with the stone text that could only by read by sharingan. Uchiha was purely bad and Itachi was right
@@scepto924 no dude, Itachi didn't know anything about any curse, we do know after a terrible and miserable retcon that surely was created after the story of Itachi.
@@madizaxs if he didn’t get rid of the clan they would have continued plotting the coupe which could eventually lead to another great ninja war if enemy villages knew the power structure weakened within the leaf. Itachi hated war bc of his childhood, risking the future development of the same coupe by only killing certain people in the uchiha didn’t make as much sense as murdering everybody. He used that genjutsu on sasuke to give him a reason to hate him and a reason to be strong to ultimately protect him. It’s not that hard to understand
@ honestly he could’ve tried to have a talk with everyone before offing his whole clan doe, like you don’t think the uchiha clan and hokage having a heart to heart talk could’ve atleast fixed things?
@@madizaxs his own clan already didn’t trust him because of his ranks within the anbu, there’s no way trying to reason with them would come to a peaceful conclusion especially since their marginalization had been deeply rooted for so long. Dangerous friction between the uchiha and the leaf higher ups is inevitable because of the line of succession with the senju seizing power after they originally unified. Pay attention gang

@@scepto924 yeah but those suspicions were purely false allegations as they weren’t actually plotting on doing anything until they felt threatened
Did you watch the show?
I don’t think he did
@@nothisispatrick6832 clearly i watched it if i’m talking about it

Yeaaa he did not have to kill his entire clan and family, i still dont get it.. wasnt there any OTHER way to prevent a civil war?
I swear like a simple tea party could’ve prob fixed this
