Uchiha Never Meant to Save the Ninja World Alone

[Slow-update notice: I'll work on adjusting my drawing and writing schedule and get back to a suitable update pace as soon as possible.

2026.10.12 update: I've invited Lost Garden, the composer of Emotion Recovery Station, to compose the music for Lin's theatrical version! I hope you'll check it out on my XHS/Bilibili under the same name. You can read along while listening.

2026.10.15 update: "A Thousand Dreaming Forms, Love Alone Is True" has been posted on Bilibili.]

[It's okay if you didn't know when you were born. The pride of the Uchiha is carved into your bones.

And that pride isn't in the Sharingan. It's in facing the darkness and still daring to become the light. Even if there is no more light on the earth in the future, we will burn brightly and illuminate the road ahead.

We are both the full moon and the broken sprout. Beneath the genjutsu, reality has no bounds.

Love takes countless forms, but in the end, it always comes down to those three words that cannot be expressed.

"I love you."

If we were to discuss who I am, it would be far too profound. I'd fall asleep.

But we can sit together and cheer, "You're alive... Thank goodness."

As long as you're alive, I know who I am and where we're all headed.]

Finally got a cover! [I drew it myself...]

Character card update:

[Uchiha Lin, theatrical version: A Thousand Dreaming Forms] "I'm willing to give everything for you."

A mid-length prequel that fills in the story of this work, "In the Hell of Woven Threads", is scheduled to start in February 2026. Set during the Warring States period, it follows the heroine Uchiha Ryoshu (mother of Uchiha Jiori) and [spoiler character, to be revealed when the story starts].

The Uchiha story next door, "The Shrine's Yokai, Uchiha: The Miko Says Nothing, Only Passes Judgment", a collection of short everyday stories, is now underway. Updates are irregular.

This is a male-lead story featuring an ensemble cast of Uchiha. There are many characters from the original series and original Uchiha, all with their own storylines. Almost all Uchiha characters other than the male lead have a pairing (I won't force pairings; I like open endings and Uchiha bonds). There may be canon pairings or popular ships, but I promise no original characters will be paired off... This isn't a romance, after all, so the relationship arcs are usually side plots.

[Updates are irregular. I'm not good at continuous narration, but I'll do my best to complete every storyline. I'll also try to draw extra character stories. I revise frequently because sometimes I'm in a bit of a fog while writing.

You can find various design sketches and alternate timelines on my XHS under the same name, but some are 18+ fan works that don't fit this story.]

In the villagers' eyes, being an orphan of the Uchiha clan and blind in one eye since childhood was already tragic enough. No amount of hard work or talent could make up for such hardship.

But that's all right. Compared to that, simply surviving is the challenge right now. Whether it's the Shinobi World Wars, the Nine-Tails' attack, or the night of the massacre, you absolutely must not disappear into your predetermined fate.

It's okay. You'll have the perfect teammates and teachers, an organization of your own, boundless wealth, secret techniques worthy of the strong, and custom-made ninja tools...

I, Uchiha Jiori, swear to give everything I have so you can keep saving the world.

What does it take to create an Uchiha Lin?

Feed him a few sword masters (Senju Tobirama / Uchiha Izuna: How did we suddenly end up with such a troublesome disciple...), then add some one-of-a-kind ninjutsu (May the great goddess Ame-no-Uzume bless us...), and finally give him a mission that's meant for him alone! (Inherit my Will of Fire and save this troubled shinobi world!)

And there you have it, a perfect Uchiha child!

Let the shinobi world behold the most perfect Uchiha clan!

Just to clarify, this story is a collection of the author's Uchiha OCs and contains a lot of different settings, including cosmic horror, parallel worlds, transmigration, and a pseudo-fourth-wall. These are only ways to make the characters' existence feel plausible and tell the story of a possible Naruto world where they have complete lives of their own. That's all. I'll be happy if you like the children's stories and enjoy reading them.

Thank you for reading.

This is sudden, but I'm sorry. Perhaps the day Lin's story ends will also be the day I stop writing. I'll do my best to finish as soon as possible.

Theme: Never underestimate the bonds between the Uchiha!
