I thought of it as Sasuke 'conquering' or overcoming Orochimaru's psyche. He got his jutsu and some abilities, which we can assume is one of the whole points of him doing the Body Switches in the first place. But I thought Sasuke beat Orochimaru's mind, which tried to conquer Sasuke's.Originally Posted by KCMmmmm
On the other hand, while Kabuto says that he put Orochimaru's remains into him, the fact that that part is 'taking over' his body suggests it could have consciousness.
We'll really have to see, I suppose...
Thing is, Sasuke has yet to show any sign that his mind has been altered or that Orochimaru's psyche is somehow a part of his.
