Doesn't emo mean emotion? As far as I can tell, Sasuke seems like one of the most emotionless people in Naruto. If anything aren't Naruto and Sakura the emo ones.

Not a Narutard or an emo dude. I just figured logic is logic so why is sasuke labeled emo?

While emo original meant someone who is overly emotional, it exact meaning has changed in recent times, although one meaning of the term is emotional. Emo has been associated with a stereotype that includes being particularly emotional, sensitive, shy, introverted, or angst-ridden. Sasuke fits two of those definitions, introverted and angst-ridden. That is why Sasuke is often called emo.

"Naruto is stronger than me, I must let my rage out on him"
"My attack is stronger than Naruto's, I am happy, no... wait his was stronger I'm angry again"
"My brother just killed my clan, I am now sad and angry at the same time"
"These four sound ninja are stronger than me, they shall also feel my rage"
"Danzo is a hag, I must destroy Konoha, wait it got destroyed I'll just let my rage out on Danzo"
"I don't like you Sakura because you don't know how sad it is being lonely like Naruto and I"

Sasuke definitely seems emotionless. He's possibly the most emotionless character ever, even Shino has trouble competing with him.

There's also the poser emos, who like to dress like them... Though I don't think Sasuke fits in that category either. XD

I thought emos were also supposed to be ummm what is that term... when someone does nothing, just stands by etc?

Anyway meant to say that Sasuke is the opposite of that, he is goal driven.

Doesn't anime artists usually hide a character's eyes for those who are emo? And I don't mean in a particular scene, but all the time.

I though western artists did that?

But yeah, Sasuke is over-emotional. More so than Naruto.

To tell the truth. Emo is a genre of music. Not really something a person can be. But agreed. I don't think he is emo. The label is just lame. But he does show emotion, when faced with Itachi that is.
