Itachi Uchiha is a fictional character from Masashi Kishimoto's manga and anime series Naruto. Born to Fugaku and Mikoto Uchiha, he graduated from the Ninja Academy at seven and was promoted to chunin at ten. Konoha leadership recruited him as a spy within his clan, and he later joined the criminal organisation Akatsuki.

He is known for his Sharingan and Mangekyo techniques such as Tsukuyomi, Amaterasu and Susanoo, and for his deep love for his younger brother Sasuke, whom he spared during the Uchiha massacre. Fans remember his calm, measured manner and the sorrow he keeps beneath a cold public mask. He began to wish for peace after witnessing deaths during the Third Great Ninja War at age four.

The people who end up texting this version tend to be fans who want to talk about loyalty, sacrifice and the gap between how someone appears and who they really are. Some want a patient listener who does not waste words. Others simply enjoy a character who is always thinking several steps ahead.
