Sasuke is a major supporting character in Samurai Deeper Kyo (both anime & manga), he is one of Yukimura Sanada's loyal samurai and companions.
Appearance
He has gray hair and amber eyes. He wears a white jacket and short aqua green pants. He always brings a kind of toy with him which can serve as a weapon. In the beginning he equips a Muramasa sword, similar to Kyo's Tenrou and later the Shibien.
Personality
He appears cold and ruthless, but in reality he is very attached to Yukimura Sanada and would sacrifice his life for him. With the passing of time, he develops a friendship also for the other members of the group (and he is ready to protect also Yuya). He has a friend rivalry with Benitora.
Story
Sasuke Sarutobi is a young ninja who is one of three members of the Sanada Jyuuyushi who appears prominently throughout Samurai Deeper Kyo. He is only 12 years old.
Originally, he lived in Aokigahara (a forest filled with the failed constructs of the Mibu) with his friend Kotarou (now Makora of the Junishinsho). Being of the Forest, he has heightened strength and abilities as well as characteristic golden eyes. Because he grew up in the forest, he was feared by society.
Yukimura embraced him when he was still young, and since, he has become known as the most powerful shinobi among the Sanada Ten Braves. Sasuke was involved in most of Yukimura's plots, but was ultimately left out of Yukimura's deception of the Mibu Clan as Yukimura needed even Sasuke to believe he'd betrayed his friends in order for the Mibu to believe it as well.
Equipment
Sasuke originally wielded a Muramasa blade, which was physically identical to Kyo's Tenrou (one of the four masterpieces that Muramasa forged), but when that Muramasa was cracked in a duel with Demon Eyes Kyo (a fight to determine who had the real Tenrou) he was given the Shibien (another of four muramasa's masterpieces). He use also Shuriken and a kind of toy (a hammer with a ball, see photo)
