I love the people who say everything has to do with naruto if it has the name in it. I mean really, are you that closed minded? Read up on your Japanese histry and legends, and not just say it's from naruto.
not every name thats pops out of a japanes dictionary is from naruto and if you think that se would copy shoen jump (wich has strong ties in china)then you are sadly mistaken. naruto fans theres no point in lieing or making up things when the truth has been there to see for much longer
For all you Naruto Fans, this item is named after Uchiha Sasuke, the life-long rival of the main protagonist Uzumaki Naruto~
Also as of this update, there are 2 more Naruto based references:
Orochi Nodowa (+1) Sarutobi Kyahan
Sarutobi is the name of the third Hokage whose life is sacrificed to attempt to kill Orochimaru, which fails and only succeeds in sealing off Orochimaru's hands and thus preventing him from forming ninjutsu hand seals.
For all you Naruto Fans, this item is named after Uchiha Sasuke
Uh.
no.
it's one thing to have a suspicion that SE is referencing another franchise; but could you please do some research before spouting this crap? Sasuke's Katana is a traditional name for katana in the FF franchise. ignorance is one thing, but spouting it as truth when you obviously have no f*cking clue is just infuriating.

Thank you. Hate people who think everything that says "Sasuke" has to deal with Naruto. Sasuke was a legendary Ninja people! The Sasuke in Naruto was named after the original, sheesh ~.~
