As title says, when we all first began part two, we were hit with a new sakura, had turned out to stepped up her game and i saw more obvious improvement from her than from naruto, the first almost twenty episodes in the anime and whatever how many first chapters of part two, it really seemed like sakura was taking up a high role, and her peak came when she coordinated well with chiyo agaisnt Sasori, but then came a slow decline of her usefulness and died until where we are today where we barely see her at all.

Does this upset you and you would have wanted her to continue to have a role in fights, or is this how you like it to have been? Share opinions!

I think Kishimoto lost a bet to one of his assistance and HAD to draw her useful in that ONE arc.

Which is why we saw such a rapid and quick decline in her usefulness, abilities, and overall character development.

She's actually been more useful in this war arc than, say, Hinata.

My point being: People often underrate the usefulness of a medical ninja.

I personally dislike fights that have Sakura as a real factor in them. Personal preference, I guess.

She should have fought Konan, besides that I don't see her having much of a place in the story after Sasori died. :|

Well in that sense, yes she is useful. But she hasn't been too relevant to the story compared to Hinata until recently.

i think that would have been cool to see, not long lasting for sakura but still, let her have her shot

I too find it boring; much like Tsunade's. It lacks depth honestly.

that's true, just raw strength and not even speed with it, too typical...i think over average strength is one of the most common abilities in main characters in naruto verse

Her fighting style is lame, wohoo I can throw punches at my opponent, thats basically all she can do beside healing, as long as Kishi doesnt give her new abilities I couldnt care less about her not fighting or being useful

Sakura will continue to get development, people overlook medical ninjas because there are only a few important characters ofcourse she will mostly be healing fodders but its not useless.

Hinatas development in this war and pain arc were to develop her into the leader she was suppose to be being branch family and all. Neji who was chosen over her dying gave her the slot, especially when she started telling the alliance they should team up and try something last chapter. She will change from the hyuga reject to something important. Each supporting character has their defining moments so i'm not really looking too deep into it.

i think for people to be willing to want to see her more in action, she needs development in her fighting skills as obito3631 said, idk y she can't have an element...smh or be given genjutsu
