Kakashi Susanoo Explained: The Ultimate Sharingan Power

The Kakashi Susanoo is unique because he is not an Uchiha, which means he does not possess the Mangekyo Sharingan. However, through obtaining a borrowed Mangekyo from his comrade Obito, Kakashi manages to temporarily use this ultimate power. Because of this common ancestry, the Susanoo that Kakashi creates has a distinct design which could be affected by both his and Obito’s chakra.
Also, he combines his already known abilities with Susanoo: Kamui Shuriken becomes a tool for him just like its usual sword. This mix makes Kakashi Susanoo an unexpected and very strong jutsu.
The Sharingan and the Path to Kakashi Susanoo
The Sharingan, a Kekkei Genkai (bloodline trait) unique to the Uchiha clan, bestows an exceptional upper hand in battle. It has two central capabilities: the initial one is jutsu copying. When a person sees the movements of their enemy’s hands and chakra movement, they can imitate their techniques quite accurately with Sharingan; however fully mastering it necessitates comprehension about what kind of jutsu it is being used for its power to be unleashed properly.
The Sharingan is very good at genjutsu, which means fighting using illusions. This eye can trap an enemy into a strong illusion just by looking at them, controlling what they see and making them do things. But the great power of this Sharingan comes from its growth to Mangekyo Sharingan. This awakened state reveals a special collection of powerful jutsu that are unique to the Uchiha who activates it.
The process of awakening is harsh, as it demands seeing the death of an important person for the user. This emotional shock causes a transformation in Sharingan that gives great strength but also comes with dreadful price.
The jutsu of the Mangekyo Sharingan can be different depending on the user, but they all have great strength. They can control elements and provide teleportation-like powers.
This kind of double-sided sword is what defines the Mangekyo Sharingan, it’s both very powerful and a risky play.
The Mystery of Kakashi’s Susanoo
Kakashi Hatake, the famous Copy Ninja, surprised everyone by using Susanoo. This ultimate technique is only for Uchiha who have Mangekyo Sharingan. So now we ask: how could Kakashi, not being an Uchiha, use such power? The answer is a sacrifice of self. In a significant fight, Obito Uchiha who was good friends with Kakashi sacrificed himself and passed his Sharingan to Kakashi.
Now, Kakashi has a borrowed eye that lets him temporarily use the power of Mangekyo. This includes his impressive Susanoo but it’s not clear if handling an eye he didn’t originally possess will give him all the abilities of a real Uchiha Susanoo. We might see some interesting changes in Kakashi Susanoo, showing special features when someone uses a Mangekyo that is not their own yet still powerful.
Appearance of Kakashi Susanoo
Kakashi Susanoo is not the typical red color that Uchihas usually have. His has a light cyan color, maybe because of the mix chakra he shares with Obito. It takes on a full human-like shape, which is unusual even for those who use Mangekyo.
For those who are sharp-eyed, they will recognize details that bring to mind Kakashi: a noticeable tengu-like nose on the front armor and two hair strands that enclose the face. These small references to Kakashi’s famous mask give a personal touch to this strong jutsu.
The Power of Kakashi’s Susanoo
– Like every Susanoo, Kakashi Susanoo has an almost unbreakable shield that can sustain strong blows.
– This Susanoo is quite powerful. It has the ability to overwhelm opponents with lethal punches and energy blasts.
– With his ability to soar through the air, Kakashi’s Susanoo gives him superior aerial control and tactical agility.
– Kakashi uses Kamui Shuriken, a weapon enhanced with the power he stole from Mangekyo. With the addition of a potent ranged strike to his skill set, these shuriken warp anything they pierce to the Kamui dimension.
– Kakashi Susanoo gains access to Kamui’s warping powers through the borrowed Mangekyo, possibly enabling teleportation or deliberate phasing during attacks.
The Limits of Borrowed Power
The jutsu uses up a lot of his chakra. Unlike Uchiha who have inborn compatibility with the Sharingan, Kakashi’s body finds it hard to handle the demands of foreign Mangekyo. This means he can only use it for a limited time; he activates Susanoo but quickly becomes tired after that. Mangekyo’s notorious side effect of blindness applies to Kakashi as well.
Using Susanoo often with the eye he borrowed makes him lose his vision faster. The most important limit is that his Susanoo is not permanent.
The Defeat of Kaguya
Kakashi Susanoo helped Naruto and Kakashi with its strong defense. It kept them safe from Kaguya’s powerful attacks which gave chances for Naruto and Sasuke to fight back. Also, Kakashi’s Susanoo together with Naruto and Sasuke techniques made Kaguya too weak to take over control of the situation. Not the only reason, but Kakashi’s Susanoo was an important help in winning the last fight against Kaguya who had total power.
He used a Mangekyo Sharingan that was not his own, and with this he broke the rules by accessing a power only meant for those from the Uchiha lineage. The Susanoo was only available for a short time and required great sacrifice, but it provided matchless defense along with powerful destruction abilities plus strategic flexibility.
