Description
Death Battle (Animal Kaiser/Naruto)
Connections (credit to u/Kaiser_Isaiah_Foo):
- Older brothers of one of the main protagonists of their series (Kaiser Blue and Sasuke Uchiha), both caring for their younger siblings very deeply
- Both commited the ultimate unthinkable act to protect their younger brothers and for a greater good. (Brutus learns the Forbidden Arts to protect his family and friends from an Enemy Clan while Itachi slaughters the Uchiha Clan to protect Konoha from a Coup d'etat and)
- For their acts, they were then branded as traitors and cast out from their society
- Their unthinkable acts would be a driving force to push their younger brothers to growing stronger (Blue to try and reunite with Brutus again and Sasuke to kill Itachi)
- Both then were part of a villainous team for a majority of their time afterwards (Villain Beasts/Joker Gang and Akatsuki)
- Eventually by the end of their journeys, both would redeem themselves (Brutus becoming an Animal Kaiser himself and Itachi through his death)
- Both happen to be fan favourites of their respective fanbase, with a lot of them wishing for more coverage on their stories
- Contrast in that while Brutus' younger brother Blue still does care for his brother despite what he had done, Itachi's actions led to Sasuke swearing to kill him
