This thread is to look on the things people hold back on Sakura. This isn't how Sakura is usefull or not, there has been plenty of thread made for that. No I'm not a Sakura wanker or fapboy, just a simple fan. I'm analyzing some of her actions on a logical stand point. Please this is a serious thread, I don't want any trolling or bashing going on. Btw this will be a long read and tell me if something doesn't make any sense, I'll try my best to explain it/make it clear.

Sakura's comment about Naruto's parent
This is when Sakura talked sh- about Naruto not having parents. I agree, what she said was horrible and disrespectful. But, let's analyze why she said it. Sakura must have been like 11 or 12 at that time and she was blindly in love with Sasuke just because he was the "cool" kid. Sasuke and Naruto pretty much hated each other at that point. Sakura also thought Naruto was annoying at time and she was desperately trying to get Sasuke to notice her. Maybe that was a way for Sakura to tell Naruto stop coming in between her and Sasuke. What she said was 100% uncalled for, but are you going to hold her back for it? You're going to hold what a 12 year old girl said. That's just sad, like a 12 year old would know of the consensus of the things he/she does/say. She may be intelligent, but she isn't perfect. She said something really f-'ed up, but like we never haven't. Especially at that age, where you're not mature. You people act like she still feels that way and she hasn't for at least 500+ chapters now. She may be a ninja, but kishi tries to make her as normal girl as possible. I personally believe in forgiveness, now why can't you forgive her?

Fake confession/Team 7 reunion
Yes she was acting selfish and dumb. Yes she lied about not having feelings for Sasuke with her "fake" confession. And yes, she tried to kill Sasuke but failed to do so.No excuses there, it happen and that's how kishi wanted it to happen. But why did she hesitate on killing Sasuke? Just think about it, can you kill your old teammate and person you still have feelings for? Even though Sasuke declared that he would destroy Konoha and become a dangerous rogue ninja, she couldn't kill him. It's not that she was too weak(my man Sasuke was blind) or that she was deeply in love with him. Something inside her was fighting, the old memories and feelings vs what Sasuke has done/become. It's in human nature, point blank and simple. Ever time you do a big decision, many things come to your mind. It's like a tug of war with your feelings, positive vs negative. Now don't come with me "Oh she's a ninja, how can she not kill Sasuke after everything he's done, she still wants his...". That's a load of bull, just because she's ninja doesn't mean she's not human. She doesn't want his__ anymore like she used to, yes she still has feelings for him. But to be honest it's been fading for a while now. She's been training for 2-3 years with Tsunade learning to how save lives, not end them. I'll ask again, can you kill an old friend/teammate even he/she did something similar to Sasuke, without hesitating? Yes she planned this and should have been prepared, but it's not easy. It's not easy to kill your old crush, who you have been idolizing since you were a little kid. It's not easy to kill an old friend. No matter how prepared you are, killing is a tough thing to do.

War arc/Sannin parallel(my opinion on what she meant)
"I have finally caught up to you guys". Let's be real, she was never on par with them. every time she got an power up, they were leagues above her. But don't take it as if she literally meant she's on par with them. You're a wanker if you believe that. What I believe she meant was that she finally got a note worthy power up. I mean she got a very impressive power up. She a got an S-ranked forbidden jutsu that only two people in NV have been known to have(her and Tsunade). Let's be honest, before that power up she didn't really have anything special except for strength, intelligence, and medical ninjutsu. I just think she meant she finally has a note worthy jutsu just like Naruto and Sasuke has had for a long time.

Chapter 674
"You had one job and you failed""Stupid b- can't do anything right". Well firstly nobody knew Madara was going to pull a Danzo and steal Kakashi's sharigan. Not to mention he used it as if he knew how it worked.*side rant* that was really dirty on Madara's part, Kakashi :c. What do you want? She's of course hesitating, I mean she's about to stab the guy who saved a friend she really values, in the eye. That's just pure gruesome. I don't think any medic wants to stab a live patient in the eye.You people act like you won't hesitate. Yes she's a ninja, but again she's also human. She finally trusts him and now she has to hurt him. Was she slow about it? Yes. Would she have eventually done it? Sure, no doubt. But it's not her fault Madara is thirsty for the eyes.

Forgot to breath
You people really act like it's dumb to forget how to breath. She was in front a guy who fodderized the gokage's, edo kage's, Sasuke, and Naruto. She had a person on the line and didn't know if Madara was about to attack at any second. Shit even Minato failed to give the other half of Kurama to Naruto because of Madara. If I were in her place, I would have sh-ed myself to be honest. She has every dam right to be in fear. Fear, many things happen when you're in fear. When you're so scared for your life and the life of another person, your body just shuts down. Your brain fails to compute wants happening. Only thing that's in your mind is "Am I going to be alive in the next second, is he going to be alive?"(in the situation of Sakura and Naruto). For the last time, just because she's a ninja, that doesn't make her human.

Now you may call it damage control and excuses but it's just on a logical point of view. Again I don't wank Sakura and I'm not a Sakura fapboy. She can't fly, she will not have the rinnegan or sharigan, she isn't on pare with Naruto or Sasuke, she's not the strongest, she's not the best heroin, she's not the best written character. She has her flaws, but what character doesn't. I don't hate any character and barely dislike any. I strongly believe in forgiveness and don't see why/how people hate a character. I mean it's you're opinion and I respect that, but I just can't believe you'll want a fictional character dead. What's the point? Do you get off by hating a character and being part of a circle jerk who can't come up with new jokes. Is your life that boring/sad that if a character died, you'll feel better about yourself? There's a reason why people hate Naruto fans and believe every single one is a narutard. Stop bashing on a character just to get reps, it was never cool. Stop wanking a character, you accomplish nothing but hate from other people.
Thank you for reading and god bless.

I guess you lack reading skills, I told you to take this serious and stop trolling. Knowing you, that probably won't happen.

do you even read the manga? She's been useful since part one. Not a fanboy, just stating facts. Also, accepting and considering Obito an ally was a huge step in maturity.

Sakura is a complex character. Being blessed with the same personality I can understand her and why she does what she does, but many don't or won't take the time to see any good in her. Many hate her based on her actions as a child. As a young woman she made a few irrational decisions but so has Naruto and don't even get me started on Sasuke. No one is perfect and Team 7 is full of flawed people, but that's what makes them human and relatable.

Sakura unfortunately is also viewed poorly for her lack of power and after the garbage regarding Kakashi today, it's obvious people only like characters who are OP. Not all but most, so she will never get a break.

I can say one thing I am proud to relate to her and be a fan and she's not disappointed me once during the war. She's still Sakura, not some hardened ninja with killing intent. She even put aside her feelings for Obito and accepted him after all he did. She has an amazing heart just like Naruto.

Well knowing you hate her, you'll naturally see it as an excuse. If it was an excuse I wouldn't have said that some of the things she did was cringe worthy. Plus this was never made to change views about, at this point in the base, it's impossible. I just want to show some logical reasons on maybe why it happen.

1. Sakura's comment about naruto's parents (following in order): Any middle schooler, hell any kid from 8 to 18 knows not to talk carelessly about things of this nature. There is no excuse or exception, having said that your direction wasn't very clear on that one so I could have misread your intentions.

2. This is actually one of the easiest mistakes to understand. I don't think it can be held against her, and near exact replicated situations have occurred all over literature and media.

3. Didn't read, it was symbolic. Assume I agree with what you said.

4. She had ample time, this is war, this is the world at stake, in situations like this if you hesitate you loose. This should be apparent to every character.

4. This honestly wasn't that serious. Tense situation and constant pressure, she wss holding her breath. It's probably happened to everyone at least once.

1. No yea I agree. I'm just saying it was like a way to say f- you Naruto stop coming in between me and Sasuke. Also just forgive the girl, she was young. They all make mistakes, it's like she keep treating him that.
2. A lot of people do sadly
3.True
4.Yea but that's why I said it's an inner conflict, it may be war but everything happen so quick I can see why she's hesitating. I'm not really sure about this one
5. People bash on her for that
