The Uchiha clan is one of the most powerful and popular clans in Naruto. But who is actually the strongest Uchiha? We’ve looked closely at the members and present our top 7.
Spoiler Alert: In this article, you will read spoilers about the entire story of Naruto.
What sets the Uchiha clan apart? Uchihas are true masters of combat. With their famous Sharingan, their Kekkei Genkai and one of the three great Dou-Jutsu (eye techniques), they can copy jutsus and predict movements. Additionally, many Uchihas are also known for their strong fire jutsus (Katon).
With the Mangekyou Sharingan, the Uchihas gain access to even more powerful techniques such as Amaterasu and Susanoo. However, this special Sharingan can only be obtained through deep trauma or the death of a loved one.
The Uchiha clan was once the strongest clan in Konohagakure. However, the Uchihas had a difficult relationship with the other villagers of Konoha. The second Hokage, Tobirama Senju, founded the Konoha Military Police, which consisted solely of members of the Uchiha clan, to honor them.
But in reality, it was a strategic move to push the Uchihas as far away from the center of Konoha as possible. The village elders blamed the Uchihas for the attack of the Kyuubi (Nine-Tails).
In a tragic turning point in clan history, Itachi Uchiha, who was regarded as a loyal ANBU, planned the annihilation of his own clan to save Konoha from an impending coup – which ultimately led to the Uchiha massacre.
How was the ranking created? The ranking was created by MeinMMO author Fabienne Kissel, a longtime fan of Naruto. She compared all the members of the Uchiha clan and picked her top 7.

Place 7: Fugaku Uchiha
Fugaku Uchiha, the head of the Uchiha clan and father of Itachi and Sasuke, ranks last in our Uchiha ranking. Fugaku was a strict and responsible father who had high expectations for his sons. He was proud of their abilities and taught them fire jutsus (Katon), especially the Goukakyuu no Jutsu
(great fireball).
Fugaku was considered one of the smartest shinobi of his time and also possessed his clan’s Kekkei Genkai, the Sharingan. He was strongly focused on improving the reputation and position of the Uchiha clan in the village, which led to tensions with the villagers.
For Fugaku, the welfare of his clan always took priority over that of the village. Eventually, he planned a coup to regain his clan’s power. But his son Itachi thwarted this plan and wiped out the entire Uchiha clan, including Fugaku.
Even though he did not achieve the fame of his sons, Fugaku remains a significant figure. His decisions and ideals had a major impact on the history of the Uchiha clan.
Place 6: Izuna Uchiha
Izuna Uchiha was the younger brother of Madara Uchiha, and most information about him comes from tales by Itachi Uchiha, Hashirama Senju, and Tobi. He is described as resembling Sasuke Uchiha in appearance.
Izuna respected and admired his older brother Madara and trained hard with him to become strong. He was a talented shinobi who mastered the Sharingan and Mangekyou Sharingan.
The Mangekyou Sharingan is an evolution of the Sharingan. This special Sharingan can only be obtained through deep trauma or the death of a loved one. It grants the user powerful abilities such as Amaterasu (black flames), Tsukuyomi (a powerful genjutsu), and Susanoo, a protective chakra spirit.
However, the user gradually loses their eyesight through the use of the Mangekyou Sharingan, eventually leading to blindness.
The Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan (EMS) is a variant that occurs when the user implants the Mangekyou Sharingan of a close relative into their own eyes. This fuses the eyes into a permanent form that does not lose eyesight and is even more powerful.
Izuna died from injuries sustained in a fight against the Senju clan. According to Tobi, Izuna sacrificed his own eyes to strengthen Madara and help the clan, but the exact circumstances are unclear. Itachi claims that Madara forced them from him.
