Information
Manda is Orochimaru's largest and most powerful summoned snake. He demands one hundred human sacrifices ready for him after his help in combat. Should he not receive his sacrifices, or if the person who summoned him isn't Orochimaru himself, Manda would not hesitate to kill his summoner. On top of that, it is only Orochimaru's power that he respects, not Orochimaru himself – Kabuto Yakushi believed that Manda would have betrayed (or at least abandoned) Orochimaru had he learned that the latter couldn't use jutsu at the time. Manda is very fast when in combat, and is able to shed his skin in order to evade attacks. He has a very poor disposition, and he clearly doesn't like either Gamabunta or Katsuyu, and only savors killing both of them. During Manda's first appearance, Gamabunta's sword is driven through his mouth to keep him pinned, preventing him from eating Orochimaru after the latter is defeated. Before departing, Manda warns Orochimaru that he will eat him the next time they meet.
In Part II, Manda is summoned by Sasuke, who hides in Manda's mouth to escape an explosion made by Deidara at the cost of Manda's life. To control Manda, Sasuke had to use genjutsu, an act for which Manda cursed him with his last breath.
