1. not being able to do mange sharingan
2. not being able to fight against a mange sharingan
cuz don't you have to be a full uchiha? or am i wrong?
CONFUSING, NO? </td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'>
The "half uchiha" thing isn't right. If an ability like that is linked to blood, it would be genetic. Dominant and recessive genes work this way:
There are two gene types, dominant and recessive. Let's call the dominant Sharingan gene "S", and the recessive non-Sharingan gene "n". Given 2 gene types, there's only four combinations:
SS Sn
nS nn
In 2 out of 4 cases, the user would have the dominant Sharingan gene, and would possess the ability. In one of the cases, they will be like Itachi and Sasuke, and ... I guess, it'd be called having the bloodline limit, as in the most powerful it can be. In the last case, the "nn" case, the person would have no ability at Sharingan, and wouldn't even be able to pass it down.
Now, assuming Sasuke is "SS", he could continue the family by having children with anyone, because 3 out of 4 of his children would have the ability. It gets tricky afterwards, because his children have children with other people (assuming they aren't incenstuous), and then depending on which child it is (SS, Sn, nS, or nn), their chances are either 1 in 4, or 1 in 2, for their children to possess the ability. Those children have to marry other children with the trait for the family to continue.
Easy, no?
