Itachi Uchiha
Ngl Uchihas are hard to draw š©
I was thinking why is that so, why Uchihas go blind while Hyuga feel no side effects from using byakugan? (Aside of that fact that Kishimoto loves Uchiha clan, so they expirience the most angst and suffer)
And I have had one semi-biological conclusion.
So, some of you may be familiar with the theory that people have a lot of diseases that develop with age or appear in old age because that's how evolution and natural selection work. In other words, most people manage to pass on their genes to the next generation (that is, become evolutionarily successful) before they get diseases that most often appear at a certain age. Evolution filters out those mutations that are incompatible with reproduction, because it is through reproduction that all living things fix useful traits and pass them on. Accordingly, evolution has almost no effect (or it happens by chance) on traits that do not prevent a person from successfully surviving to pass on their genes to their children. If an individual lived to have children, it is already a biologically successful individual. Then you can die. Evolution is cruel and unempathetic.
I looked at the sharingan from this side. From the evolutionary side. Sharingan as a biological trait should take a very long time to form, mutate and change in the process of evolution. He would improve due to the fact that the Uchiha with the stronger sharingan would successfully survive and reproduce. But at the same time, evolution would no longer affect what would happen to the Uchiha's eyes after they would produce offspring at a young age. Since the genes have already been passed down, the next generation will have the same trait as the parents. Regardless of what happens next with the parents. So since blindness was not a trait that would have prevented the Uchiha from living to reproductive age, it was not weeded out by evolution in any way. In conclusion, we have a biological trait that was evolutionarily strengthened and developed, because the ability of the Uchiha to survive depended on the power of the sharingan. Uchiha with a weak sharingan died before they could have children. But the gradual loss of vision did not interfere with the clan's survival, so it was not evolutionary screened out. In this way, the sharingan was formed, which is an incredibly useful and powerful trait, but at the same time, evolution did not affect the subsequent loss of vision. Blindness isn't biologically disabling, so the Uchiha's DNA doesn't have to mutate to compensate for it. Uchih's eye blindness is just a biological process, a consequence of the fact that there was no evolutionary stimulus in their eyes to compensate for it. The Uchiha with the strongest sharingan became reproductively successful, but subsequent vision problems did not affect this. Evolutionarily, there was no need for the sharingan to find a middle ground between power and not straining the eyes and going blind as a result. Evolutionarily, their eyes improved the power of the Sharingan, but did not improve endurance. Therefore, the Sharingan is an incredibly powerful force, but there is no mechanism to overcome the consequences of using it.

Those who shall guide you are The Uchiha.
Obey!
*headcanon - sharingan memories, madara, and izunaās eyes.
A little known canon fact is that Sharingan users who take the eyes of another Sharingan user can recall the recorded memories of the original owner. When Sasuke took Itachiās eyes, he commented that his brotherās memories wereĀ ādisgusting and sadā.
So letās think about Madara. Madara who, nearly blind, took the dying Izunaās eyesĀ on his request. Madara who didnāt merely watch his brother receive that fatal wound and die later on, but also got to see everything firsthand as Izuna saw it, who would remember everything that Izuna ever saw with those eyes for the rest of his life.
(You know he absolutely went knee-deep in everything Izuna left behind, even if it hurt him. How does it feel to relive the world through your dead brotherās eyes?)
The Sharingan never forgets. All the memories recorded by them ā the original trauma that inspired their manifestation, every battle situation that necessitated their use, every kill made with the Sharingan on⦠is remembered in perfect detail. Every. Single. Thing.
No wonder the Uchiha have a reputation for going nutty. These are killers under extreme stress and they canāt even forget the worst of their memories? Fucking hell.
On the other hand, this makes me wonder if their infamousĀ ādeep loveā is caused by this. I personally headcanon that the Uchiha record good memories (to offset the bad) and some of them use it to commit details of their loved ones. What must that be like? To remember everything about someone you love, to never forget their face, to see them so clearly that not even a lifetime will wipe their memory away? What is it like to remember them even when they are gone?
Maybe the Uchiha donāt let go, not because of sheer bloody-mindedness, but because they physically canāt.
We've seen Madara's incredible finesse with the Sharingan in battle, but his specific set of eyes possessing eternal light are so handy even in normal life. Things he would probably do for/with you:
Help you sleep. It never fails, even when all your other sleep medications have. Too bad he doesn't help himself sleep more
Defend against nightmares. He'd ensure your mind is instead safely swaddled in pleasant dreams if he knows you were having a bad one
Of course he brings his Sharingan for more intimate times. He has extremely clear vision and perception in the bedroom, all the better to see and take in all of you. Maybe heād cast some light genjutsu to enhance your experience
Not sure if he can see in complete darkness, but pretty sure he can see better in the dark than you. And he can still see your chakra even if he canāt see everything else. He likes to play in the dark sometimes. How you get when he can see/sense you, but you canāt see anything except the glowing fire in his eyes, excites him as he takes you repeatedly
Memorize endearing moments with you
Copy your movements when you touch yourself and bring yourself off so he can do it just as well as you. Madara is good at everything he does, so once he figures out your good spots, he'll touch you better than you do yourself
We don't see his Mangekyou ability in the manga or anime (because he was already so strong Kishimoto couldn't defeat him without bringing in an alien woman), but Madara's Mangekyou ability in the game Ultimate Ninja Storm was to record an event and rewind time for a few seconds...talk about OP. If he's a pervert, and I believe this touch-starved man is certainly horny with his S/O, he can rewind his orgasm with you and have another one, then spam this to get his rocks off multiple times using his Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan. If he wanted, he could do that for himself too when he touches himself. Anyone with prudish parents who think excessive masturbation causes blindness clearly never heard of Uchiha Madara
