About Sasori

Read biography · Contains spoilers

Sasori, also known as Sasori of the Red Sand, was the grandson of Chiyo and a member of the Akatsuki before his death. He was originally partnered with Orochimaru but was later reassigned as the partner of Deidara. Sasori's parents were killed by Sakumo Hatake when he was a child, leaving him as an orphan with no one but his Grandmother to raise him. To help Sasori cope with the death of his parents, Chiyo taught him the art of puppet making. He began making puppets at the age of five, and was even able to create puppets that resembled his parents in an attempt to mend the terrible loneliness he felt. Sasori later lost interest in these puppets because they were lifeless beings unable to give him the natural parental love that he desired. Sasori was a born natural at the art, even devising masterful ways of eliminating a puppet master's weakness. Sasori was the creator of numerous masterfully crafted puppets, a number of which were used by Kankuro. Chiyo as well was a wielder of Sasori's puppets, as she was the one who retrieved the Mother and Father puppets after Sasori discarded them.
