I really wish we were able to see Fugaku in combat. The fact that he was compared to people like minato and sakumo for the hokage title speaks volume. Also absolutely love his mangekyo design. It’s very unique

[sovereignblu]

I hope we to get see more of Fugaku during the Minato stories. Seeing the fathers of Naruto and Sasuke interacting together on their come up would be fan service for me.

[otimingawhika]

It'll be cool if instead of amatarasu, his eye increased an emotion in his target and he used it in war, if you have a tiny bit of fear, he can amplify that fear to make him look wickedly intimidating

[wonyadorbs]

Fugaku def got the best mangekyou design

[anthonylamonica]

I can't imagine Fugaku _not_ having a Mangekyo Sharingan. It might be a rare power in a Clan where even awakening a normal Sharingan isn't guaranteed, but there always seemed to be at least a handful of wielders at any given time for each generation, and Fugaku had to live through the effects of _two_ Great Wars, even if he wasn't old enough to actually _fight_ in one of them; that's plenty of time and opportunity for traumatic awakening to occur.

That said, I'm not so sure about the proposed Genjutsu ability... it seems too complicated for a MS Ability. I wager it's something much more simple, like instilling an _intense_ sense of terror into an opponent, no illusion necessary. Think about Orochimaru projecting his killing-intent during the Chunin Exams, then amplify that a few times over... on _eye-contact_ alone. You want to stop a conflict bloodlessly? Abuse the survival instinct that all beings possess, and make them run in fear.

[RedEyeItachi]

The only thing I’m confident about with Fugaku’s MS is that he didn’t have Amaterasu. I say this because when Itachi used it against Jiriya, Jiriya acted as if he has never seen it before and had no idea what it was until he just saw it. With Fugaku being Minatos rival and someone Jiriya most definitely would have know a lot about I don’t see how he could have had Amaterasu and Jiriya not know or see it used. So if Fugaku had Amaterasu how did Jiriya not recognize it immediately when Itachi did it? Y was Jiriya caught off guard and appear to not know what it was?

[kevikevkev]

Fugaku surely had it really hard. He had two positions that conflicted with each other: head of clan and protector of the village. He chose to go with the family. Itachi went with the village. Itachi saw the bigger picture basically, but it's not that simple given that Fugaku was way closer to his clan members. Tobirama really fostered some tough times for the clan.

[PRO]

For yall who dont want to watch the full video:

Eye 1: Amaterasu (canon) - Amaterasu is inextinguishable black flames that can be cast by the user. It costs your eye to bleed.
Eye 2: Bishamonten (custom) - It protects, bloodlessly, to a degree. It is a genjutsu that imparts the caster’s will on whoever he casted it upon. Instead of playing with your senses, it plays with your perception of reality. In a way, it forces someone to fight for the caster’s side.

You know nick, I’ve got to say you have the perfect blend of informative and entertaining naruto content. It’s so refreshing and great for both watching or just listening along. It’s like listening to my friend tell me about the new naruto lore he found out about while we’re playing games

[PumaPants]

If Bishimon is what Fugaku’s MS ability is and the link between MS abilities and family members is there a cool Kakashi and Sakumo moment between Sarada and Fugaku where he explains his MS ability to her and how it would help her against Eida would be an awesome scene

[RazorRevenge]

When I was a kid I hated Fugaku but as I’ve gotten older I’ve really started to like him and wished there was more info on him. I’m hoping to see more of him in the upcoming Minato manga 💜🖤

[buffaloandback]

One of the characters that I wish we saw more of ❤

[johnwaggner]

I really like the Bishamon ability you give him, I think it's perfectly suited to his personality and what we know of him, but I think his other eye was Tsukiyomi, for purely symbolic reasons.

In Naruto, the Sun represents Hope, Overt Action, Being a Source of Strength, Yang Release, and Asura/The Senju, while the Moon represents Despair, Underhandedness, Taking/Using the Strength of Others, Yin Release, and Indra/The Uchiha. Amaterasu in the Goddess of the Sun, while Tsukiyomi was the God of the Moon. The fact that both Sasuke and Itachi have Amaterasu is a huge symbolic thing; it represents them both being willing to take decisive action, both having confidence to stand alone against the world, and being juxtaposed to the will of the Uchiha bloodline (Itachi by choosing Konoha over the clan, and Sasuke by ending the curse of hatred once and for all). Their secondary abilities explain their conflict within that tradjectory: Itachi has Tsukiyomi to symbolize him being stuck between Konoha and his Clan and wanting to change reality, while Sasuke has Kagatsuchi to symbolize his struggle to push his power beyond its bounds and burn EVERYTHING down.

However, Fugaku doesn't strike me as a particularly "active" character in the series. Yes, he's the head of the clan and police force, but what little of him we get to see interacting with others shows him to be a stern, quiet, and reserved individual. He doesn't give praise to Sasuke openly, he doesn't spend time with his sons, he expects a lot from people and doesn't seem to "do" a lot even when taking action. This extends to his role in the coup; at first he argued AGAINST the coup, not wanting to bring unrest to Konoha or put his clan in danger, until later he agreed to lead it on the condition that it be a targeted strike against the leadership so as to not cause unnecessary suffering. Even when Itachi came to kill their whole clan in the night, Fugaku never fought back. He accepted his son's decision and refused to fight against it.

Every action he takes is precise, secretive, overwhelming and efficient, and I believe that's because he is in true alignment with the symbology of the Moon. He uses roundabout methods rather than physical force, he uses the strength of others by using his son as a spy and relying on his clan, and he seems unwilling to take actions himself unless forced to. At the same time, his interactions with Itachi show without a doubt that he is opposed to war and the coup, which is why he brought his son to that battlefield in the first place; to instill in him the terrible reality of war. So why did he agree to the coup when he hated it and rejected it? Because he loved both his clan and Konoha and wanted to protect them both from future harm, the same as Itachi did.

Therefore, I think the familial link in MS powers is between Fugaku and Itachi with Tsukiyomi, the power to rewrite reality and dilate time within a genjutsu. Both of them felt torn between their two sides and desired to change reality, but while Itachi possessed Amaterasu, a symbol of Hope and Overt Action, Fugaku possessed Bishamon, a symbol of Duty and Protection, and so Fugaku fell in line with the Uchiha and their Curse of Hatred while Itachi chose to fight against it.

Which makes it heartbreaking to realize the reason Fugaku didn't fight back during the Uchiha massacre wasn't because he couldn't or because he gave up, but because he RECOGNIZED the reality of the Uchiha's plans and goals and knew that they were wrong. But as head of the clan, as their sworn protector, Fugaku couldn't make the choice to stop his clan from doing this, but Itachi could and did. And so by not fighting back against Itachi, both Fugaku and Mikoto were silently declaring their love for him and support of him taking on this burden that neither of them were able to. They entrusted the future of the clan and their sons to Itachi, and though it was super roundabout and needlessly dramatic, Itachi did right by their faith in him in the end.

[thedarkknight]

I love this guy he explains abilities so well

[thmistrapillay]

Hell yes, I love Fugaku, I can tell I'm going to enjoy this video. Can you make theories on Sakumo Hatake next

[Nequitvis]

Also, I doubt Kakashi would've seen Itachi's amaterasu after awakening his MS. Kakashi was quite surprised to see amaterasu after the fight between Itachi and Sasuke. So Fugaku having an Amaterasu and using it in the 3rd shinobi war might actually be the reason why Kakashi knew about the existance of Amaterasu and Jiraiya knowing to seal the Amaterasu in a scroll.

[TheCrazyCapMaster]

I do like the idea of Fugaku’s Bishamonten ability being a will-altering genjutsu; my first thought was a more physical thing, some kind of barrier he could create to shield those around him. A genjutsu boost doesn’t really seem to be necessary for controlling the 9-Tails, as Obito did it just fine without using his MS.

Anyway, having this idea immediately sent me spiraling off towards thoughts of Itachi’s Yata Mirror. Google searches then made me painfully aware of a great deal of confusion about the nature of spirit weapons in Naruto- how does one get a spirit weapon? Are they granted by some higher power? Or are they physical things that can be found like Orochimaru implies when he discovers Itachi had some? Can they be inherited from someone else who owned one? Did Fugaku have the Yata Mirror or Totsuka Blade or were those entirely new and unique to Itachi?

[thmistrapillay]

This is why a Minato anime serious would be Godtier

[agamerboss]

What if his ms is torture based like how Itachi uses Tsukuyomi but way worse as it would be solely based on torture or he can enforce his will on your body instead of your mind.. in this scenario he could control one’s body as a perfect puppet and force you to witness how he kills each of your comrades as you watch from within

[MMysticXX]

We need to learn more about Fugaku as he is literally the father of Sasuke and Itachi.
