Is Sakura falling in love with Naruto?

[Maina Deah]

I was just reading that. But no one says you're confined to love just one person especially if you're not with anyone. I'd say she has seen all that Naruto has done for her and may have started transitioning to him because he has certainly done more for her than Sasuke has.

Honestly, Sakura has done more than Hinata has so that's how she's more useful. She's proved herself useful to the series and the people around her (beyond just Naruto for the Hinata counterargument) on more occasions which is why I say if you say Sakura is useless, then you're saying everyone else who has done practically nothing is more useless. Sakura is an expert med ninja and has a powerful fist while Hinata has a neared mastery of her Kekkei Genkai. Sakura, to say she's not from any particular clan, stands up well against her.

Sakura already appreciated all the things Naruto have done for her from the time Naruto do his training with Kakashi in rasenshuriken.
You can't love two person at the same, Sakura is greedy if she's like that. I guess she sees Naruto more as a brother.
I'm just saying, Hinata can do a lot based on her capability, she got byakugan and better in fighting. Well Kishi made Sakura the main supporting character not Hinata, if its in the other way it'll be Hinata instead.

It's greedy, but most people are. That's what makes her 3 dimensional. Even if she did love Sasuke to this point, he will never return to her because he does not love her. But for her to go to Naruto, he already has deep feelings for her. In the end, there will be no decision between Naruto and Sasuke because Sasuke doesn't love her.

I see Hinata's feelings for Naruto as Lee's are for Sakura. They both make a stand for them to save their lives at some point in the series, but nothing much comes from it..

I'm glad to have a decent conversation with someone who doesn't come off as a grade-schooler. Thanks for not like flipping out and just going "There's no way!" or "Sakura is a bi*** so no."

I do provide proof to support how it appears that she is also falling for Naruto. I mean, she can't truly love Sasuke because he's gone. You can't really love someone in that way who isn't there and hasn't been there in years (going back to Academy days because he never showed any interest in her).

She still loves Sasuke!!!

Hinata has bigger boobs.........that is all.

It's not impossible but I'm really not to sure about it. It's not because i hate sakura like many of the people on here (i really don't care for her at all), it's just that I think that if Sakura isn't flat out in love with Naruto by now, I don't see what else could possibly make her go for him. You seem like a super ultra (kind of scary) fan of Sakura so i won't diss her on your thread. I'm just saying that Naruto has saved Sakura countless times, made her an earthshattering promise, went through unimaginable pain for her, went out of his way to comfort, protect, be there for her and make her happy, became an amazing, respected, powerful, somewhat mature, smart (and i must say better than average looking) man, and somehow she is STILL torn between him and Sasuke (aka the guy that tried to kill her twice). Kushina fell in love with Minato when he saved her and complimented her hair. Naruto has basically went to the moon and back for Sakura. I don't see what more he could possibly do to win her over. Even though I'm a Naruhina fan i trulely believe everyone is going to end up alone in the end (since Naruto isn't THAT kind of a manga). Kishi is most likely going to keep dragging BOTH naruhina and narusaku fans by the nose until the end then leave us high and dry.

even though i dont agree with you i repsect your points

She's been in love with him since he returned to the village. I believe I read Yamato about to state it saying "Sakura, you l..." and getting cut off. I think Hinata is a better choice though.

Nah, as for Sasuke, he just focused himself on revenge and likes so he never look at Sakura that way, though he is aware about Sakura's feelings. I guess if he'll change for good he'll consider Sakura. I really think Naruto will never believe Sakura loves him even if its genuine after the incident when Sakura 'confessed' to him.

We still dont know what will happen between Hinata and Naruto since the series isnt finished and never focused on pairings however, Kishi did some hints on Naruto and Hinata moments so we cant conclude nothing happened.

I never argue on forums and its not really my thing, your thread just attract me because I'm a NaruHina fan. Well I do respect your opinion if you think that way.

And Sasuke isnt gone, infact they seek him to come back.

 

[mcchikeneater]

no just no if naruto ends up with her i be pissed

hinata been there for him

Agreed.

 

[Rexoniel]

Sakura still has the hots for Sasuke. Naruto would be stupid to not return Hinata's affection when she's willingly to risk her life for him.

 

[Zatanna]

I think when Sakura tried to trick naruto, she did sort of realize some things and also that some of the things she said were subconcious thoughts. mean that some of it was true actual feelings.

Though I really would like to see naruto end up with Hinata.

Yeah good point. I also see it that way.

It's only my interpretation of their relationship, but I can't exactly say that I think Sakura loves Naruto in that way. When I look at them I don't see siblings or anything, but very, very good friends. I like them as friends. Of course if, at the end, Naruto does get with Sakura, I won't care. I'll be happy with whatever makes Naruto happy, because I love him so much as a character.

But on the topic of Sakura's love for Sasuke... It's true that it, in a way, seems unreasonable right now, considering Sasuke has tried to kill her and has been gone for so long. But the latter could also be said when it comes to how Naruto feels about Sasuke. He still considers him a friend, because I believe they both, mutually, know they are on the inside, but one cannot deny that a lot of time has passed between them. The same goes for Sakura, I think, but on a downgraded level. Sasuke has been gone, but she still says she loves him, typically.

But you have to remember who you're talking about when it comes to love. Sakura, like the rest of Kakashi's original Team Seven, has a strong and stubborn heart. She may hold onto any feelings she's ever had for Sasuke, in hopes that one day he'll come back somehow. I think, because of that stubborn, strong heart of her's, she does still love Sasuke. No matter what. Sasuke, from what I have seen, doesn't care about her, aside from a bit, but we'll have to see what Kishi does. He's not too big on romance, anyway.

Sorry if any of this seems wrong or ignorant. Sakura isn't one of the characters that I've really trained myself to deeply look into and analyze.

 

[Nami Usagi]

Yeah good point. I also see it that way.

Why thank you

 

[MarkPaul]

No! Shes just making up with that so that naruto stop chasing sasuke

 

[Finn]

lol hinata and naruto will be together get over it

 

[Bodhisattva]

I think she may be. It seems plausible that she would be anyway. I mean, he shouldered a promise for her all that time...though it's over now. After Sai told her what she may have been blind to see, she realized how much he cares for her. And then Sasuke tried to kill her twice, I think that horse was shot in the face.

But I mean, the signs are there. While she was healing him after the Kyuubi was unleashed, Yamato hints that she does. And when she was healing Hinata, the look she had in her eyes was pretty downcast to find that she loved Naruto. The ellipsis suggests there is more to her thoughts we weren't seeing. Maybe she was jealous because she does as well... I mean, why would she care anyway? Why show us this scene? Why show her thinking this? It's pretty hint-hint if you ask me.

But I think she took the opportunity and did something the old Sakura would have never done. She hugged him. She crried out for him and he saved the village as she was hoping he would. He deserved that recognition from her. Furthermore, she also feeds him after he hurts his arm from using the Rasen-Shuriken. That's also something she never would have done.

In all honesty, she has come a long way from the Sasuke fangirl she used to be. I'd say after Sasuke left, she was able to see past him and to Naruto. When she and Naruto meet up after the time skip, she seems to think he's taller and more handsome. Another lead on that was implied well. If you consider Sasuke's feelings, he's never loved Sakura. Or was interested in her in any way beyond her being a comrade. So he wouldn't be interested in rebuilding his clan with her. I think he may go for Karin. Sakura may just want to rebuild the Uzumaki clan with Naruto... But I really think she's transitioned from Sasuke to Naruto. And given Naruto's strong will to never give up, I doubt he's going to give up on getting her to show her feelings to him/like him back (if she doesn't already).

I hope so. But I've said it before and I'll say it again...
Why can't he have both???

You have some really good points I can agree with. However, I'm not really saying anything is written in stone, I just think Sakura is in a transitional state right now. She could go Naruto, or she could go Sasuke.

I'm not gonna take you down or anything as you really came at me in a sensible manner and I thank you for that. Much better than some of the other comments that are just two sentences.

Anyway, I think if he went to Hinata, that'd be okay. But if he got Sakura to finally like him he will have something he's wanted almost as badly as being Hokage. By this point, he may have already won her over. Sakura already admitted that she was mistaken to like Sasuke because she couldn't see past his cool appearance to what was lying underneath. Like I said, I think Sasuke would probably go to Karin before he went to Sakura. He acknowledged her feelings, but I don't think he cares since he did try to make her sleep with the fishes twice in one day lol. Based on Sakura and Naruto's unsurprisingly shocking similarities with Tsunade and Jiraya and Minato and Kushina, I'd say that's part of how I arrived at the idea that she is at a turning point. He saved her and is always going out of his way for her. Any woman would realize by now that he's worthy to settle down with and start a family with.

I like where you're coming from. Though I believe even if Sasuke were to return, things would be the same as they were before he left. He wouldn't be interested in Sakura in much more than friendship. He has had no turning point in his feelings for her as of now. But yes, the story is progressing. I just think it's highly unlikely for him to suddenly fall in love with her.

Back to Naruto and Sakura, being very good friends is the basis of a lifetime of happiness together. Even if she doesn't love him that way, I don't want to say that she never could. It's likely that she has realized some feelings she may be repressing already.

Btw you did quite well analyzing her character to say you don't really think you have.

@ solarflare012 dont double post, use multi icon.

Naruto will end up with Hinata if not Kishi will piss off ALOT of people off but then again it will be the same the other way around too. So we will have to see what Kishi does but I think he will go with Hinata.
