I dunno, it's a huge stretch but maybe Kabuto could be involved, like i said highly unlikely but it would be interesting, we dont know much about him. And it's a bad guy that has already been introduced.

Just beacuse Itachi talkes to his brother doesnt mean that he is a good guy!
Itachi secret mission can be the killing of his clan.
This chapters flashback was better than the last weeks but i hope the next weeks flashback is the last cause the story has to move on.
Death B: You are right they should make good flashbacks like these about Narutos past,when they do flashbacks about Naruto i want atleast 10 flashback chapters[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
I have a feeling that the 3 guys on the last page is there to find trouble with Itachi and the one back facing them is Obito. Kishimoto might just tell us how Kakashi get his sharingan here since it was never mentioned and since its about Uchiha now. Its just an instinct that I think the guy back facing them is Obito and he is gonna lose and give Kakashi his sharingan before he dies.
okay i didnt read many of the posts since i didnt want to see more bullshit posts like deluxskillz's... these flashbacks have been very, very good. i cant tell if itachi is good or evil anymore, his father is hiding to much secrets with all these "missions" that are exclusive for the uchiha. its possible that he killed the clan for the greater good of konoha? i dont know anymore.
i agree...although i cannot say that sasuke and itachis father is up to anything siniseter...but i think that on some level itachi is doing what he can to protect sasukeOriginally posted by: Pervert-Sennin Jiraiya

i really cant say if itachi killed the clan or not...and i still think he did. if he didnt we shouldnt expect to see the truth anytime soon. this is sauskes flashback and hes clueless

Heres a theory.
Itachi's special ANBU mission involves tracking down Oro and bringing him to justice. While Itachi is away, Oro comes in and slaughters the clan. Itachi returns just after and see's Sasuke coming home from practice (the pole scene)
Itachi does not want to show Sasuke that he is weak (Itachi failed to protect the clan and let everyone die) so thus creates the illusion that he did it himself.
This theory is flexable since it doesnt have to be Oro to have killed the clan, it can be anyone. I would also like to introduce a sort of twist in to the plot in which Itachi and Sasuke's father actually betrayed the clan. (Their father doesnt really seem to be a nice guy from what we've seen)
His purpose was to get Itachi away from the village (as he is so strong) and thus the killings can happen. When Itachi returns he see's his father killing his mother and quickly binds him in some sort of manner. Itachi then kills his father execution style for betraying the clan and sasuke walks in just at that moment..
Okay I got to much time on my hands to think of all this but I think its a good theory
you guys are substituting any random character for the real killer and coming up with theories yet you guys don't/can't explain why that killer would kill the uchiha clan.
sure i could say the character X killed off the uchihas, but that doesn't mean shit if i don't say why he/she did it. it's completely useless to tell us about a theory if you're not gonna explain what the main motive is for the killer.
from the way i see it, no one who has been introduced is strong enough AND evil enough to slaughter a whole clan except orochimaru and itachi. also, it can't be kabuto since i believe is around 17 (just a guess from appearance and when kakashi said "don't mess with an adult") and there is no way he'd be strong enough at the time of uchiha massacre (i don't think he is even strong enough now). and i doubt that the real killer is gonna be someone who hasn't been introduced yet. that would be completely stupid to just throw in the real killer after so much story line has been built.
Itachi killed the damn clan. This is build-up on his motives. Nothing more, nothing less. If you don't believe me, you'll see. And if this proves to be wrong, which it won't, I never said it. (...)
the story of the uchiha's death has become more and more revealed to us.
but by the way itachi was talking to sasuke, i think that the whole clan's death is for a greater cause and it's not because itachi is trying to prove to strength.
the guy on the bottom left of the last page doesnt look like an uchiha......not only do most uchihas have dark hair, but that thing around his waist looks more "sound ninja" style.....although that cant really be the case, since the sound village didnt exist back then.....but eh i dunno
its really interesting with this flashback, because you get a perspective of sasuke that you wouldnt consider otherwise. Sasuke was always known for wanting to avenge his clan, and being all lonely and junk, but even when his family was around, he still was depressed, just for different reasons. I was kinda hoping that i would see naruto in the flashbacks of the classroom, to help support my theory about how he was in the same class as the others the whole time, and not just held back or anything. (although him being the same age alone should be enough evidence)
The whole "using itachi as a connection" sorta thing sounds fishy and kinda corrupt.......maybe itachi catches on that the whole clan is trying to take over konoha? [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img] in any case, im sure the "secret mission" will give us a big clue

need i repeat......that if there WAS someone that killed the clan other than itachi.......that we wont see that in these flashbacks, since they are from sasuke's perspective and sasuke sees itachi as the killer

The flashbacks are probably just to show us what Itachi was like and to help us make our own theories or predictions about the Uchiha massacre.
assertnfailure speaks my mind. This is from sasuke's perspective of the massacre. to find out the truth, we need to see from itachi. man, they need to have more air time for itachi, then we can understand his character more.
There's actually not that many characters that's been introduce outside since itachi and kasame, so if itachi didn't kill them, then that character is still hidden. But little is known right now that it's hard to make any possible speculations of what happened that night.
I disagree to a small extent. I'd say the reason for these flashbacks is to give grounds for Sasuke's immense inferiority complex. And hell, while we're at it, why don't we cast doubt on Itachi's character.Originally posted by: KonohamaruCorps

One possibility: if someone wanted to get sharingan, someone very powerful, they'd basically have to kill off all the pawns to get to the king, queen, and bishop pieces, who have the true sharingan. And finally, having killed off all the pawns, they get to the end of the road, and the sharingan masters do not use sharingan so that no one can steal their eyes.
Holes in this theory: not too many singular people are strong enough for this. It'd probably take a group of people, and none, up to this point, have been eluded to, except Akatsuki. If Itachi really didn't kill his family, and Akatsuki did, I doubt he'd sign up. The three guys in the last page of 221 look like Orochi-type-people, so maybe he had some help in the Uchiha clan, from guys who were a little bitter about Itachi being really strong.
I don't really know at this point. It's an exciting subplot, and I like the generation of material on Itachi. Whether he's good or bad, this arc has given more info on him than all the preceeding. Stupid people have wasted so much bandwidth on him, with nothing to go on. Now that we have it, stupid people hate flashbacks. Whatever.
liked his chapter.
wanna see the next one ,before i start making up theories
wait a sec, i thought you were only an anime watcher, mesamune

nah i started reading manga during chuunin exam or so
i just dont post that much , usually some stuff about precise moments in the anime or weird theories in open.
almost genin....w00t
The start of the chuunin prelims was when I started to read the manga too (That seems to be the big pullover event)...
These Itachi chapters are an important part to creating a large backbone of the Naruto story whether some of you realize it or not.Sasuke is second to Naruto in the characters most important to the story,it takes a large event to influence Sasuke into the "I wanna kill my brother" mindset.Next week things should really get moving.
poor poor sasuke. that inferiority really gets to him. he was a loser when itachi's was around and now he's still a loser. what a sad little MF.
i actually almost felt sad about how sasuke was treated.
