Do you think Naruto and Sasuke needed a different female teammate?

[Darth Natsu Shazneel]

So everyone can pretty much agree that Sakura is the problem. I personally don’t think Hinata would’ve been a good choice replacement thiugh. But if Kishi had given Hinata a twin sister who’s the polar opposite of Hinata (but she isn’t a ***** like alt Hinata - Road to Ninja) then it would work flawlessly.

You are asking for a abusive girl in the same mold of Sakura if you are going with Road to Ninja Hinata. If the current Hinata was with in the team she would have gotten more development with her branch and stuff. It would be less about Sasuke and more about other stuff. Lets not forget how Naruto's main issue as a character started when he started chasing after Sasuke for some girl's wish. Sakura was literally created for this weird love triangle. We did not need that.

I’m pretty sure I specified “but not a bìtch like alt Hinata - Road to Ninja.” I do not want her to be abusive.

Sakura was the best choice and im glad it happened

Good than take it as me brushing off Road to Ninja Hinata while expending upon your point.

Sakura could've been the strongest character of team 7 in pet 1 or atleast equalized had Kakashi trained her, she would've wrecked in genjutsu as her skill in it was able to resist Jonin level a rank genjutsu and completely be immune to weaker as seen in the chunnin exams . Also Sakuras perfect chakra control might as well had been a kkg , she could've mastered ninjutsu easily , and Kakashi was the master of ninjutsu , Sakura wasn't the problem , the plot was , she would've been too powerful for Sasuke to leave and Naruto and him to become rivals

Hinata's Byakugan would've been invaluable during the Land of Waves arc. Against Zabuza's Hidden Mist jutsu both times. Sakura just stood around and did nothing each time.

Most definitely.

I like Hinata but damn the dynamics on team 10 are pretty equal with Kiba = Naruto and sasuke = Shino and we saw how boring that team was imagine it was the main focal point :/

 

[The Paradox]

If she was part of some clan that had some special kkg she would have potinetial. Otherwise I saw no potinetial in a girl whose only goal was to fall for Sasuke.

That's what I meant by poor writing, my dude. Kishi himself admitted he wrote her poorly and just wrote her as a stereotypical pre-teen girl. Her first shown potential was her chakra control, which was superior to both Sasuke and Narutos in part 1 and arguably in most of part 2 pre-war arc. That's quite an accomplishment for someone who doesn't hail from a clan themselves.. considering she has two teammates do (and have had famous ninja as immediate family). Her second shown potential was with her natural ability to sense and dispel genjutsu, which could have been expanded upon. This is some what tied to her possible third potential (but mostly gag so I'm not fully serious with it).. inner Sakura. Which is even able to counter mind-transfer techs as seen with her fight with Ino in a high stakes exam (only reason why I included it).

Just look at it this way..Sarada is what Sakura could have been, had she been written correctly from the start. That isn't a bad teammate to have, especially if she later becomes a medic.

If you're trying to troll (which I never know on here anymore) You can keep ignoring all the lost potentials of her character just so you can keep hating her. To conclude my final point against you: Gai, Lee, and Kabuto aren't anything special either (no clan or KKG), but they were written correctly and became badass. I could argue that Kakashi also didn't come from a prominent clan and lacked a KKG until the sharingan, but was still badass and continued to be even with the loss of the sharingan. There are also characters from clans with KKG that are lackluster or weak by the clan standards.

If those potentials were expanded upon, she would be just like Sarada, but without a sharingan (just the abilities to copy and see minute movements would be lost as she still would be a pro with genjutsu). Clearly Sarada is the redemption character for the mistake that Sakura was, just with the added flare of being half Uchiha.

No its not just that her overall personality was shit. She never felt like a decent women. Like a real women. Kishi's failure of understanding women messed his female characters up. There is a lot of things they could have done with her but the point is there was no need for them to play her as that love triangle starter. That ruined Naruto's character, along with Sasuke looking like some emo trash.
