Their dynamic explores themes of love, duty, sacrifice, and the burdens of family, culminating in their fated battle and the revelation of Itachi's layered loyalties.

The Truth Revealed: After Itachi's death (which he orchestrated), it's revealed Itachi acted out of deep love for Sasuke and loyalty to the village, bearing immense pain and responsibility.
Impact on Sasuke: Learning the truth about Itachi profoundly changes Sasuke, shifting his focus from revenge to protecting the village in his own way, often becoming a darker figure.
