First off, let me clarify something here: ALL shippers are bad about this. Extrapolating whatever their shipping moment is from something that isn't remotely related. Second, it's a shonen manga and Kishi says he can't write women or romance well. So don't expect anything amazing from the...

Just a brief summary here because there's been an UPROAR in the forums (as expected), and I keep seeing the same stupid observations over and over. Sakura is back to her old antics/hasn't matured yet. As are Naruto and Sasuke, to a somewhat lesser degree. Their team is together again; Kishi...

Seriously, it does. She showed a lot of promise of growth at the beginning of Shippuden, and since then she has proven her capabilities as a kunoichi but has regressed so far emotionally, it cripples her character. Even Hinata, who in the manga has next to no buildup with Naruto, nothing to...
