Remember when Kishimoto made us watch ino and Sakura basically slap fight?

Prob the worst fight in the series with Sasori vs Sakura ( anime wise ) when I think about it she doesnt have any good fight.

It was a developmental nerf, it gave us sisterhood, Sakura was less brutal, and showed us Sakuras special talents

You’re speculating that he would take time to train her in anyway. Why did she have to win for that to happen anyway.

Her winning would've put her in a situation where she wouldn't/couldn't just rely on her basic skills. The training would've happened out of necessity. I don't see Kakashi focusing on teaching her ninjutsu when she's not participating in the Chunin exam. Post chunin exam the story progressed relatively quickly and he wouldn't have had time to train her. It was the ideal opportunity she had the chakra control necessary all she was lacking were jutsu to take advantage of it. Whereas Naruto had piss poor chakra control so he was fobbed off to Ebisu who would teach him chakra control.

Speculation and wishful thinking on your part.

Not speculation per se, rather the rational outcome via evaluation my dear boy.

If your objective is create a character bash thread via dismissal then I think I'm done here. There's not much more to add on my part.

I’m personally curious, even being trained, who on that ce roster for round 2 would she even be able to beat?

It would be very speculative and contingent on the moveset she gains. Imagaine she was pulling of kakashi style feints coupled with subtle genjutsu and ninjutsu finishers. For that I would have to create a whole load of moves etc to which I have 0 access ad I dont know Kakashi's 1000 jutsu.

Sakura could beat ino at this point.



Sakura is cool, awesome, sexy and attractive as a character. Hail the queen.









The fairy god. The sweet honey princess.






The Kaguya equivalent.





Sakura is faster than Naruto and Sasuke and even portrayed greater by putting in middle of naruto and sasuke.





In most anime, when someone stands in middle, they are boss.

So let me get this straight. It took sasuke AND his sharingan the entire time from the first round to the second(2 months?) to learn that taijutsu and chidori and you think Sakura could of pulled off a bigger jump in skill in the same amount of time? Cause let’s be real, to get her from where she was at round 1 to be able to actually compete in round 2 takes quite a suspension of disbelief

:lmao:...the look on the match referee's face. He was already tired of watching that pathetic fight lol. It did however show us how kind and helpful Ino was towards her friends especially Sakura and how Sakura repaid that kindness with her selfish desires.

If anyone of them won that match they sure would've gotten eliminated the next round low diff.

More like two weeks in Sasuke's case and he was being trained to specifically fight Gaara.

Kishi already foreshadowed her potential via Kakashi during the tree climbing exercise. He pretty much said if you can master this then you can pretty much master/learn any technique within reason (excluding kkg etc). And then Sakura proceeds to climb the tree with 0 effort. You cant measure her potential using Sasuke as an example. Sakura has superior chakra control relative to Sasuke so her ability to learn jutsu relatively easily if we follow the foreshadow.

Sakura also has the intellect to boot so being Kakashi ish would be highly possible for her. That doesn't mean she'd win but would still undergo huge improvement nonetheless. And it wouldn't be an ass pull due to the foreshadow(tree climbing exercise) early on.

It's the perfect missed opportunity on Kishi's part.

Well this will be quick, everyone mastered walking on shit, so everyone could of mastered anything right? If they wanted Sakura to be on that level they would of put her in there, EVEN if she lost.

Your right however they took time to get there whereas hers was instant or effortless. Therefore her level and speed of mastery would be of a smilar pace.

You asked me a speculative question and I answered it. You see early on kishi wasn't about pulling things out of his behind and this would've been the perfect opportunity for no ass pull development with foreshadowing.

So you really think she would of been able to reach that level. That’s a bit much considering it took her 2 or 3 years(however long the time skip was) to master ces

I actually remember it as being something important for the series. They had a cool rivalry at that time.

I liked the fight. Gave us hints about chakra and basic but yes, it was the most boring compare with other.s
