naruto and sasukes were not friends, they were coworkers

[the big boss]

What made them friends besides their encounter with danger is that they both new what it was to be ALONE! this was unspoken however you cant deny that sasuke grew to care for team 7 ! but like i said earlier sasuke wasnt looking for friends . Revenge was the most important thing . ill give you an example why i said your partially right . Sasuke sharingan gave him the advantage over haku ( he could track her speed with the sharingan . But he defended naruto and got hurt ) later kyuubi came out and naruto beat haku . Point is he cared enough to sacrifice his body to save naruto

terrible reply ,after terrible reply

i will assume the better posters are away at the moment




you are the first real user to reply, your reply was far better than the rest on this thread

How can you be a "first real user"?

 

[Bieber]

you dont have to agree with me, your reply was almost the same quality as spam, i like good reply's

but, would you consider them friends , in real life?

I was going off of what Kishi has said himself. Being best friends in NV is completely different than being friends in real life. They're always there to make each other stronger and at VoTE Sasuke couldn't even bring himself to kill Naruto because they're friends.

real user = not a troll, not an alt, someone who posts good replys

Hurr durr because kishimoto said so hurr durr

 

[Ghost of Uchiha]

when did kishi say that sasuke almost sacrificed his life to complete a misson??

Only two people have actually risked their lifes for naruto they are sasuke and naruto

 

[pandu]

but, would you consider them friends , in real life?

From their point of view;I would say yes.Because both of them knew how terrible it is to be alone without any one to care for.It is an undeniable fact that sasuke considered naruto his best friend cuz he was the only person who tried to understand sasuke and his behaviour.No matter how detached and melancholic sasuke was,deep down he cared for them and was willing to die for them.I think this is enough for calling them "best friends"

I disagree because he didnt have to defend naruto . He could have used his sharingan to save his own ass . And let naruto get murked . Like ive been trying to tell you . He didnt intentionally start caring for naruto it just kind of happened . Somebody above said they were rivals not really . Sasuke was the superior ninja at that time . Kind of like young kakashi and obito !

kakashi and obito became friends when they went to save rin and they saved eaouther and obito gave up his eye, obito stopped being kakashi's friend when rin died

My point in bringing up young kakashi and obito was pointing out they were not rivals early on . ( addressing earlier comment by someone else that they were rivals ) they were not rivals in sasuke or young kakashi eyes because they were the superior ninja ! normally a rival is someone that is on or close to your level . WHich young obito and naruto were not on the same level as sasuke or young kakashi

i am talking about friends

i know they are rivals

rivals dont equal friends

Sasuke mentioned at VOTE that they were bestfriends, and for most of part 1 and 2 Naruto has always considered Sasuke as his best friend,they probably became like this through all the missions and the chuunin exams they had to go through which you cant really work as a team well and succeed in those type of situations unless they have somewhat of a bond, of course how big or small that bond is can vary.
of course they themselves said so and thats not something one would normally lie about.

 

[Shinobi Jones]

Your definition of "friends" obviously isn't the same as naruto and sasuke, cause clearly they considered each other as so...the writers say is all that matters, idk why people are actually arguing with this idiot

 

[Infinite Slick]

In my opinion, Naruto and Sasuke are more "rivals" than anything else. The way Naruto (the show) is set up is that the more noticeable friendships come from the most intense, for lack of a better term, rivalry. Guy and Kakashi, Lee and Neji, Sakura and Ino. It's just the way it is in Naruto. I wouldn't necessarily call what Naruto and Sasuke have to be "the best friend connection." But, both know that the other has the potential to rival their own, so they deepened their bonds based on that, I believe. If one were to die/leave, who would the other compare their strength too? Those two are the strongest of their age group/generation, so without the other they would lose all determination to become stronger, and that unwillingness to become stronger and/or lack of a suitable counterpart to challenge them probably puts fear in the both of their minds.

Furthermore, I also think Sasuke called Naruto his best friend, since he knew Naruto was the one who could match him, and remember that Itachi told Sasuke that in order to unlock the three ringed version of his Sharingan, he had to kill his best friend. But Sasuke unlocked it even without killing him. As stated by Tobirama, the different levels of Sharingan are unlocked through their feelings, mostly pain. So, I'm pretty sure Sasuke felt more heartbreak in what he was doing to Naruto as Itachi did to him, and that's cutting off "family-tight bonds." However, I don't think Sasuke truly believed in his heart that Naruto was his best friend, just his eternal rival. Sasuke cut himself away from the world in order to prevent the pain he felt with his clans annihilation, so I'd be surprised if he considered anybody a true friend, to be honest. The only emotions he has left are towards Itachi, and coincidentally enough, those feelings, basically play a part in everything he has done so far and is going to do. To wrap things up, Sasuke probably spared Naruto for two reasons: 1) Sasuke considered his life after killing Itachi, and knew surpassing and staying ahead of Naruto would be his new life goal and 2) Sasuke wanted to reach his full potential without following in the footsteps of his brother.

To sum up, Naruto and Sasuke are more rivals than "best friends." The end.
