Description ...''Out of the huts of history's shame
I rise
Up from a past that's rooted in pain
I rise
I'm a black ocean, leaping and wide,
Welling and swelling I bear in the tide.
Leaving behind nights of terror and fear
I rise
Into a daybreak that's wondrously clear
I rise
Bringing the gifts that my ancestors gave,
I am the dream and the hope of the slave.
I rise
I rise
I rise.''

Still I rise by Maya Angelov.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
For those who says Sasuke should have given up on ''the whole revenge thing'' How dare he not be a perfect saint like Naruto but instead a human being against whom the repeated mind-rapes and manipulation attempts by minds far more brilliant than his since early age showed effect and thus made him insane and mentally unbalanced.

Yes, it is amoral and wrong what he does but it is not like it is unexplained or anything. Or even that much different than what most people in this manga do. It is not like he is the only shinobi who is killing people for no sufficient reason. Unless you count being paid money for it as sufficient, you know, the way the ninja villages, like Konoha, are funded.
Really, Sasuke choose to be mindraped by Itachi multiple times, had a CS implanted which was stated to affect his mind and draw out his more aggresive nature and he also choose to end up in Madara's hands who did who knows what to him while he was asleep (the first time after Itachi fight)

Everytime Sasuke tried to be a good Shinobi he had people like Oro and Itachi force him in the other direction. He also stated it quite clearly when he left, he didn't want to go, he had to.

Sasuke has a lot to answer for, but its questionable how much is truly his own doing and how much is due to 3 people screwing around in his head.

If people really think Naruto is going to fight Sasuke and kill him..They're delusional. Sasuke will live, and he will be redeemed by saving the world. Him dying, means Naruto failed, and I don't think Naruto will fail.

I'm sorry the pic looks kind like uncompleted. I'm now terribly upset as I type this, and have not the will to force myself to finish it at all...

Thank you for viewing my work!

Contructive critique most welcome.

I completly agree with you. Of course Sasuke's not going to be alright after all the mind fucks! When peolple say that, I feel its more of an insult to Kishimoto! >

But on a side note, luvin you gallery, you've got alot of nice works. XD

I got teared up by the description of this.. You have no idea how much of a void you just filled by saying those things about Sasuke's redemption. I feel the same exact way, and I thought I was alone. People spend so much time resenting Sasuke that they don't realize just how powerful he really is.. Not because of mere skill and will to fight, either. But the fact hes been battling himself in an eternal war this whole time.. A tragedy just shouldn't end in a tragedy
I've always had faith in him, I have more faith in him than any other person, like Naruto

And this piece is simply beautiful.. Its exactly what true art looks like Definitely one of my most favorite deviations on this site, by far. It depicts him what he should be known and loved for.

OH MY GOS I LOVE YOU! Like, you have the SAME thoughts as me! And when you said this: "If people really think Naruto is going to fight Sasuke and kill him..They're delusional. Sasuke will live, and he will be redeemed by saving the world. Him dying, means Naruto failed, and I don't think Naruto will fail." I totally agree, like I mean, if Sasuke dies then... well, Shippuden is pointless, because Shippuden it's self is about trying to bring Sasuke back! It'd be stupid if he died, the art is really good, you draw pretty kewl btw, if I were you I'd have chosen to draw a Hawk (heart) instead of an eagle, because well, Sasuke's team is called Taka (Hawk) after all.. Awesome drawing.

I can say I'm kind of unhappy with Sasuke right now, but I can't stop loving him, I've never stopped loving Sasuke since the first time I saw him on 2002, he was just so damn AWESOME. I adore him because some what I can relate to him, always being a shadow. Sasuke has been my favorite char of EVERYTHING since 2002, the first time I saw Naruto I dreamnt about him leaving Konoha, I cried, and I didn't even know that he was leaving at all at that time, I had just watch the first chapter and I dreamnt of him leaving... what a creepy little thing, ne?

Also, I cannot say I'm sorry for Danzo or Karin. I hate them both. Really, Danzo is a fucking bitch that made Itachi kill everyone and Karin is a stupid weak little fangirl, ugh she is so damn annoying.

Well, awesome drawing. I just love the colors and how Sasuke looks.

I don't verry like Sasuke, not because he leaves Konoha. But because he change so... cold I miss the old Sasuke, when he protect Naruto from Haku, something like that...
And i miss Deidara and Itachi xD
The picture is so awsome I don't found words for it I love the poem

Thank you, I'm unhappy with the current Sasuke too. Back then he was awesome, but with all those lies and everything he had to undergo, I understand why he turned so cold. At least up to chaper 480...

Oh wow! The rest of your icon is this drawing! It looks great; I don't think I've seen a drawing of Sasuke riding on a hawk/eagle before. Also, I agree with you about Sasuke. Finally, his reasons for revenge are clear, but yet, so many people still don't understand him. It's sad. I support Sasuke and I'm glad we think similarly. ^^
