Here’s that thing that everyone on the Twitters & chatrooms & face boards have been asking for.
OMFG
What.
I guess I’m one of the few SNS artists drawing Sasuke with both arms now, and it seems mosts fanartists that do this are demonized by the fandom for doing so (especially because a certain other pairing alwsys does it for the worst reasons). So now I feel I need to clarify why I choose to draw Sasuke with both arms.
I have no problem with Sasuke having one arm. I don’t. I have no problem with him being disabled. Seriously, I don’t.
But I have a problem with why.
On the surface I liked the idea that Naruto and Sasuke lost their arms together after their fight, that it was the culmination of their battle and the beginning of a conversation they needed to have, and that Sasuke not taking the new arm and Naruto using the bandages could remind them of that battle for the rest of their lives….but Kishi ruined it. When he said he only decided last minute to remove their arms for the sake of making the scene more gory the scene suddenly felt so…cheap. Knowing he originally intended to leave them holding hands made me feel like he used tearing their arms off not only for shock value but as an easy way out of showing them more intimate. And that really bothers me.
And then to top it all off only Sasuke, out of the two of them, decides to live his life with only one arm. This only increases my horrid feeling that Naruto doesn’t reciprocate Sasuke’s feelings to the intensity that Sasuke loves him. Naruto let Sasuke leave, Naruto got married while Sasuke was away, he got a new arm when Sasuke refused for sentimental reasons. Having the bandages, which SP forgets to draw half the time, feels like an unequal expression next to Sasuke’s gesture, and it bothers me because I wonder if Sasuke feels the same way.
One-armed Sasuke just doesn’t hold the significance it should to me. And it’s not because Sasuke has one arm, it’s the reasons behind it. If Kishi had simply let things be and not opened his big mouth I absolutely would’ve accepted it, but he did, and he poisoned my image of that moment between Naruto and Sasuke and left a bitter taste in my mouth. So just like Gaiden!Sauce not having a duckbutt I view one-armed!Sauce as a seperate entity from original Sasuke, because they both represent a Sasuke that lost something to a whim of Kishimoto’s that feels cheap in the end, much like everything from that point on.
