Is Sakura a rip off?

[Sennin of Logic]

Well the personality is a bit generic in Japanese manga and ur wondering about why lead heroines in many mangas have an overdose of pink? Its often the usual norm.

Also u missed a greater example of plagarism .... er 'inspiration' ..... Naruto-Sakura-Sasuke relationship has a near 95% similarity with Hanamichi-Haruko-Kaieda relationship in Slam Dunk at the roots (Cos Kishi intially didnt find Sakura cute enough, and thus gave her a spunky personality to make her interesting).

Never read or heard of Slam Dunk, so I'll have to take your word for it. However, it's not just personality. They look similar to. Similar hair style, and her dress in part 1 was even more similar than it is now.

Im going to be an Actress/ Spy / Graphic Designer



Lol, I dont mind being the villian, but i must be a beautiful one, inside and out.

I would say that's not MAIN but close to main, like members of K11. They aren't fodder characters cause the add to the plot but they aren't main characters either.

Yes, and the Juubi is a rip off of this sexy beast.

Nope. There's no similarities between biolizard and the juubi. The juubi is unique.... except for the bud on its back. Bulbisour anyone?

zomg liek itz called Final Hazard, thez nuubz 2day dn't no nothin!!!!

 

[Sennin of Logic]

Yeah it is, same goes for:

FTG is based off Chaos Control,
The run style of ninjas and Sonic characters are very similar,
Juubi based off Perfect Chaos,
Both series have something do with an orbiting satellite,
Both series developers seem like they are spending too much time on the crack pipe.
And many more!

FTG is just teleportation. Chaos control can be used to slow down or stop time itself. Shadow's usage makes Dio look like a wuss.

How is perfect chaos similar to the Juubi?

Never seen a satellite in Naruto.

 

[Miiami]

Sakura was based off her name lmao.

Final Hazard is a lame name since it sounds like a stage, not a villain. I've played Sonic Adventure 2 on my gamecube ever since I was a little kid, so yeah, I know what I'm talking about.

Never seen a satellite in Naruto.

Chaos Control still can teleports the user.

Juubi transforms, Chaos Transforms
Juubi needs tailed beasts perfect Chaos needs Emeralds.
Juubi was sealed away Chaos was sealed away.

The moon is classed as an Natural Satellite

 

[Atalaya]

I believe she was based off of SAKURA. =D

Lol! That's hilarious!

I have to point one thing out on Sakuras behalf she desplayed the basis of how she uses her insane strength in the chunnin exam arc don't know the year that came out but she used precise chakra control and releasing it at the right moment to cause damage which is how she is able to change the battle area physically a feat most other bad ass ninja would be praised for yet is over looked in one of the most hated naruto characters.

But I see that all other evidence points towards her being influenced by Amy

I hate Amy, I don't hate part 2 Sakura. Hated her in part 1 though.

 

[thatsAslap7]

No, she wasn't.

She's an original by Kishi but there are plenty of characters with personalities like Sakura or appearance.

But both at the same time?! I have to wounder about that.

You may have a point there... Hanamichi is basically Part 1 Naruto with red Hair ... Rukawa is Sasuke, hands down... But Haruko IMO is Hinata fangirling over Sasuke.

 

[thatsAslap7]

If both were out the same time then it would be understandable. If Amy debuted before Sakura then it would be safe for you to assume that Kishimoto developed Sakura based off of Amy's character. But again, there are other characters with similar appearance or personalities. It's nothing to worry about.

i like Sakura and i think not
