hello everybody welcome to, Animestorypost. here i'll be talking all about the kekkei genkai in Naruto of course as the title suggests this post is going to be on the sharingan. History of Sharingan The name sharingan literally translates to copy wheel eye and like most dojutsu the uchiha sharingan is a genetic remnant of the time of their ancestor kaguya the sharingan and rinnegan both originally were a part of the same kekkei mora the rinne-sharingan. Kaguya's rinne sharingan contained both powers of the rinnegan and sharingan with some additional abilities unique only to the rinne-sharingan. like amino menaka the ability to move surrounding areas to different dimensions or infinite Tsukiyomi arguably one of the greatest genjutsu abilities that have ever existed. This isn't to be confused with other forms of rinnegan like Momoshiki and Sasuke which do look similar in appearance. The rinne sharingan kekkei mora wasn't inherited by kaguya's kids Hagaromo and Hamura instead was split into two different kekkei genkai abilities that continue on today. As two of the three great dojutsu the sharingans power is acquired when an uchiha suffers a traumatic event because a unique chakra is released into their eyes awakening the first stage of the sharingan this will continue until they fully awaken the ultimate prowess of the Mangekyou Sharingan. It's known to only activate. once in uchiha who's already unlocked and mastered their sharingan witness the death of a friend, So surprisingly there have been uchiha who've killed their clan's men in an attempt to achieve the heightened form of the sharingan's power after the loss of someone so important uchiha can also fall victim to their own despair. This is called the uchiha's curse of hatred the greatest example of this happening was after Madara's last brother Izuna Uchiha who was killed by Tobirama Senju. Though it's rare people like sasuke have been known to come out of the uchiha's curse by adopting the senju's will of fire. Moving on to the sharingan stages the The first stage contains.
