I'm gonna regret saying this but..... Out of the 3 considering how bad she was in pt 1 Sakura showed the biggest change in the time skip imo, we all assumed(I'd hope) that sasuke would be pretty godly, and we(I at least) expected a similar jump for naruto. I expected exactly jack sh t out of Sakura lol and was surprised, she has one of the best fights of early shippuden

No bashing, but by best fight do you mean against Sasori where Chiyo had to control Sakura's movement for her pathetic taijutsu skills to even stand a chance against Sasori's puppets. Lol Sasori himself gave that fight away. Neither Chiyo nor Sakura stood a chance against Sasori.

I agree in the fact that without chiyo controlling her Sakura would of never had the chance to read sasoris movements or win, but she wasn't controlled that long. I also agree that neither one alone would of been able to take him out. also. It's still one of the best early shippuden fights imo. I don't mean this negatively at all, but you kinda can't deny that narutos immediate post timeskip improvements where a lil disappointing compared to the other 2
the way you spell Sakura "sonned" sound like she is toileting :lol
First of all, Sand Village got troubled by war and many evil source, so it was understandable that they didnt have strength to build up their own future.
Second, Chiyo has stopped being ninja for a very long time, probably before Sakura was even born :lol
You sound like a diaper modern child who could play FarmVille and think you are smarter than your grandmother because she doesnt even know how to open up a computer :lol

I would agree with Sasuke's development compared to Naruto but seeing the Sasori fight I can't accept the same for Sakura. But I'd say early Part 2 Sakura still had some chance to redeem her character. Too bad that didn't happen.

It was kinda sad that on the surface naruto didn't seem to gain anything from that time skip besides some slightly improved taijutsu some new clothes and a bigger rasengan. I was really disappointed in nardo for that one
I agree since if Naruto had stayed in the village i'd see him getting stronger than he was with jiraiya especially if he tells tsunade to lend him this giant scroll..

-Naruto after his fight with Neji/Gaara already had enough control of the fox that he could harness its power at will without asking the fox or being low on his normal chakra ..

Then by SRA he knew how to harness the power of KN0 Red eyes at will as he did against Kimimaro and could control 1 tailed transformation with no problems which leads me to think that Naruto would've been just fine if he didn't leave with jiraiya and could've honed his skills much better if he stayed considering all epeople he could've went to for help and along matches against Lee and traing with Gai , then he could've worked on his wind nature with asuma followed by starting his FRS training with kakashi at a earlier date.

Well that is true and i think the time skip was more like Kishi gives both of them a family moment.
There is something more than just power, love!
Naruto had grandfather and Jiraiya had chance to teach his grandson the meaning of life.

I believe Jiraiya was improving on Naruto's base skills first, working with him to help control Kurama. He would've taught him sage mode eventually had he not died against Pein.
Kishi intentionally nerfed Naruto's character at the beginning imo.

Jiraiya knew that the akasuki was after him yet all he got from that training aprt from basics was a odama rasengan , not saying anything is wrong with family bonding but Naruto left to train not bond which can be done simultaneously.

Lol he should've tried to teach Naruto more jutsu , basics are things that flow naturally and with his ability to harness fox chakra at will it would make sense for him to gain some new jutsu.. Maybe kishi didn't know wat to give Naruto which would fit his style?? For Sasuke it was easy since he already had sharingan so him dispersing the fox is ntn , then all he'd need to do is advance his chidori usage and copy past a bit of Oro along with toss in a couple pills and medicines to further explain Sasuke's growth and that was it for him.
Sakura was training under Tsunade so all he'd need to do is copy paste with her , while in Naruto's case it wasn't so easy at all as it was for the other 2.

I agree, it would of even fit the story to a agree had he went to different teachers with the whole ashura needing help from different people and friends to be strong blah blah. One thing though, I don't think he was able to harness that red eyed "mode" he had on demand. It seemed to come out of anger or desperation, he was pissed that kimmi was in his way iirc and/or desperate to get to sasuke

Yep i fully agree that it would fit and i see him easily being stronger if he did this probably even stronger than Sasuke depending on wat he learns dude probably probably learn to open 3 gates at best under Lee , imagine Naruto training with leg weights for 2 years. lol.

He could already harness the chakra mode Kn0 at will and all he'd need to do in order to gain more power is to pull out more of the foxes chakra which he could do , so the red eyes and claws are irrelevant.
Lol puppets don't move themselves, the fingers that are attached to the chakra strings control the puppet and if you're willing to suggest that Sakura observing Sasori's finger movements, remembering their pattern and evading then puppets movements as easy then your here for the wrong reason.

Sure Akatsuki was after him and Jiraiya should've taught him more in the time skip. That's why I said it was intentional on Kishi's part. If you think about it, he made Sasuke in early shippuden equally strong. See the relation between their powers. I believe Kishi wanted to show Naruto's growth from the start till the end of the manga and surpassing his rival.
I would agree with Sasuke's development compared to Naruto but seeing the Sasori fight I can't accept the same for Sakura. But I'd say early Part 2 Sakura still had some chance to redeem her character. Too bad that didn't happen.
