Madara Uchiha (Japanese: うちは マダラ, Hepburn: Uchiha Madara) is a powerful fictional character from the popular Naruto manga and anime series. He was created by Masashi Kishimoto. Madara first appears in the second part of the manga and the Shippuden anime. He is one of the main bad guys, known as an antagonist, in the story.
Madara Uchiha has shown up in many Naruto stories and games. He is even a playable character in several Naruto video games.
The creator, Masashi Kishimoto, wanted Madara to be a very strong villain. He was designed to challenge the main hero, Naruto Uzumaki, in the final parts of the series.
Many items like keychains, plush dolls, and action figures have been made to look like Madara.
In the Japanese anime, Naoya Uchida gives Madara his voice. Go Inoue voices him when he is a child. For the English version, Neil Kaplan is Madara's voice, and Xander Mobus voices young Madara. People who review the show often talk about Madara's role. Some even say he is one of the best anime villains ever. His past story is also seen as very important to the whole Naruto series.
Madara Uchiha's Story
Madara Uchiha was one of the people who helped start the hidden ninja village of Konohagakure (Japanese: 木ノ葉隠れの里, Hepburn: Konohagakure no Sato). He founded it with another powerful ninja named Hashirama Senju. They were both very strong leaders.
However, Madara and Hashirama had different ideas about how to lead their new village. This disagreement, along with an old rivalry between their families, led to a big fight. It seemed like Madara died during this conflict.
Later in the story, it is found out that Madara had a secret plan. He used a ninja named Obito Uchiha to act for him. Madara also gave his special eye power, called Rinnegan (輪廻眼, lit. "Saṃsāra Eye"), to a young boy named Nagato. This was to keep his power safe until he could come back to life many years later.
For a long time, Obito Uchiha pretended to be Madara. But then, a criminal named Kabuto Yakushi used a special jutsu to bring the real Madara back. Madara then became one of the main villains, fighting alongside Obito Uchiha, during the Fourth Great Shinobi World War.
After a huge battle, Naruto and Sasuke defeated the final threats, Kaguya and Black Zetsu. Madara was close to death. In his last moments, he talked with Hashirama, who had also been brought back to life. They finally made peace with each other before Madara passed away.
