OP compared Korra with Sakura andyou tried to suggest it's the same thing by pointing that Kishi called her one of main characters.

Does it make any difference in my initial post?

NO. And yet you keep making so many posts about an irrelevant fact without any context then claim I put you in the spot. I think you are seeking attention and trying to be a troll to find something to claim you rustled jimmies like the trend at NB and so far that hasn't changed. Come to the point or quit it. We are moving in a circle you know.

The link I posted has Kishi quoting that there are three main characters. My point is that K11 and Kakashi are not main characters like you were saying. I was just correcting you again.

I don't see how my comment was trollish.

I explained it why in my last post you quoted. I had to edit it since I was replying two posts and mixed up the responses to two different posts.

Here you go:

You compared Sakura with Korra in your OP. ( lead with a supporting MC)

You keep posting that Sakura is one of the main and it would still be silly to compare Korra with Sakura. So was there a point?

You trying to dodge the actual discussion and divert it is what makes me call you a troll. It was likes of you who inspired me my current sig quote. ^_^

The females in "The Legend of Korra" are awesome. Suyin, Lin, Korra, Kuvira. Man, Kishimoto is a noob when it comes to women. He just can't make them interesting and awesome. I mean.. look how pathetic Kaguya, Sakura and Karin are. Only Konan and Hinata are okay.. and even Tsunade had a nice development though I don't like her design, especially her giant breasts. The other women are not even worth to mention :/

In my opinion:
TLoK final fight & ending > Naruto final fight & ending

Have you considered the fact that writer developed the characters which he wanted for his story? BTW Hinata is more like Katara here. Avatar series is an American project not a manga. It's not following the same trends in manga. You are trying to enforce that suggestive lesbian ending for Korra would work for something like Naruto and somehow make it look cool or what? But in Japan it would not be called just shonnen anymore but classed as yaoi manga.

Well the Japanese are more open towards homosexuality than the US. Just saying. Remeber Girl-on-girl/Boy-on-boy sexy jutsu? Lol

Yea they are. They also believe beauty transcends the gender and all that. They don't even mind adding stuff to make some yaoi fans happy. They still divide the genres to suit specific tastes and write accordingly.

Try Maiden Rose or something like that if you want yaoi. Though I heard it's on hiatus or long break due to the writer breaking his hand in an accident. May be dropped even. Not sure. But one of the reasons manga writers gain half the respect from me just by finishing it the way they wanted. I see so many mangas where they start with a bright idea, fine plot and then half way through they don't know what to do at all and go on perpetual hiatus.

That's not just Kishi (though he gives stupid interviews. :p) That goes for majority of shonnens. Females in this genre are for fan service or for supporting cast for main. Right there but a step behind.

Legend of Korra was terrible, I stopped watching in book 1. I hated her and all the supporting characters. She will forever be the most useless avatar of all time.

Also calling Sakura a "main character" is an insult to all main characters. We didn't even know what her parents looked like until RTN, and their still not even canon.

Yeah I know that it is a genre-thing. But I don't see why women shouldn't be able to be interesting AND support the main at the same time. That would be a win-win-situation D:

Book 1 and 2 are bad, you're right. But Book 3 and 4 are really well done, give it a chance pls.

Actually, it's stated that she accomplished more than most Avatars have.

I guess I didn't watch that far, didn't feel like it.

I probably will eventually, not anytime soon though.

What makes Kishi so special is that he gives Sakura goals, only to have her fail miserly to achieve them.

Her goal was just being a shinobi - and she is an excellent one despite her limitations due to lack of bloodline or clan techs. She is an ordinary girl with ordinary background. She never had major ambitions. She would have progressed less if she had been in other teams. In team 7 she put her best to keep up with guys with extraordinary back grounds who also had major expectations due to their special powers. It's hard to compete with that.

Still better than someone like Knuckles in HunterXHunter.

But her goal was Sasuke.

^This. lol Besides she progressed most among normal members of Konoha 11.

Yea because girls cannot have deep bonds without being lesbians. :| And adding lesbian flavour automatically makes the ending modern progressive and thus better. U_U

No, he goal was to catch up with Naruto and Sasuke, not needing to be shielded, and help Naruto bring Sasuke back. All which she failed at.

Kishi could have had Sakura train with Lee to use the 8th gate and use her yin seal to heal from the damage. That would have made her God-tier. But he just made her a weaker version of Tsuande instead.

That wasn't a real goal, just like Sasuke and Kiba when they said they wanted to be Hokage, it was meant as a joke.

And lel, yeah. Lets just give Sakura a Biju and a new doujutsu while were at it. It's hard enough to believe she was able to learn Tsunade's jutsu's.

Korra was the MC. Here Naruto is the MC. Different lives. Did you want Sasuke and Naruto to kiss under the moon light in the end? (Not that I would have mind. Naru/Sasu for the win).

:eww:

It wasn't a joke.:| She said this to herself and has been saying this since part 1. She was very serious about it and that's why trained with Tsunade.

Naruto and Sasuke had to shield each other too. That's what you do in a team. Some are on forward positions and some in background. But all have to put an effort for a team success. Without Sakura to block Kaguya from the third side Naruto and Sasuke couldn't seal her.

Sakura's expertise was as a healer. She kept her head and didn't stop making efforts to be of help. She was not always in sink with the other two but they had more experience at fighting than her and more powerful. So she got shielded a few times but she also healed them in return. It was her to whom Gara took Naruto for healing too. Can you ignore that and still claim to be fair your analysis?

As for bringing Sasuke back- it's her forgiveness to Sasuke that's helping him keep the ties back in Konoha. She has seen him at his best and at his worst and she still accepted him. Despite not supporting his actions when he was on negative road, she doesn't hold them against him. Naruto's forgiveness and acceptance had cooled his hate but it would haven't kept him attached to Konoha. Nor it would have mean much if Sakura would have been a blind supporter.

And like Lee? Come on... There are already two of Bruce Lee incarnations on the field. Isn't enough that Sakura is almost a new gen Tsunade now you want to snatch any lime light from Gai? That's not only unoriginal but would be annoying. What next, be a weapon master like Tenten too?


Oh come on ... they are so much in the sink. Why is ending of Korra is cool but Naru/Sasu won't be? Double standards much? lol Relax.

Naruto and Sasuke's goals were not like Sakura's. She wanted to stop being a dismal in distress. Did she stop being that? Nope, as she is still mostly on the sidelines needing to be protected, even in the last few arcs. She only played a major role in one fight and never won a fight on her own.

Sakura being the person who discovered a way to survive the Gates through her medical ninjutsu would have great for her character. She would have caught up with teammates through pure hardwork, without special genetic/lineage. Would have made a potienally good arc with cute LeeSaku moments. Lol

But instead Kishi trolled her...

It's unclear whether they are lesbians or not.
