I just saw something on tumblr that somebody posted. I thought folks might be interested in since this thread is about mindblowing symbolism and meaning-heavy characters:
By Tumblr user dissonant-values:
"Naruto claims his “Two Suns” are his parents. That which lights up his dark world. Hinatas name means “Place in the Sun.” Yeah, you’re welcome."

That sounds like some pretty tremendous symbolism, so why the fixation on the presence of circles indicating some sort of powerup involving Sakura when a doozy like that has been waving at us ever since Naruto made the suns analogy?
Please read and quit whining it's over for Sakura/Naruto if she's lucky she can still have Sasuke unless Karin has something to say about it...goodness people...i dont think she could have been any clearer on what shes getting at. as the pic shows, sakura's "symbol" that we dont know shit about, resembles naruto's (actually identical) when hes in kurama mode. symbolism? most likely, i mean, unless he just ran out of ideas i guess for a design, but otherwise i think thats just the type of subtle hint kishi could put in the manga symbolizing EITHER a pairing or maybe even just a fun fact about sakura might be revealed later (like idk shes a senju descendant or something)
I give props as always to one of only people on this base that can point out details everyone misses and give a highly detailed and informative description on why she thinks the way she does. Chatte you always have amazing evidence to back up your theories...im simply jealous of your observations!
there is so much crazy symbolism between sakura and naruto, if they arent hints at romance brewing in the future then they have to mean sakura is gonna finally shine like her teammates and do something (physical) worth noting besides beating sasori and being the medic nin genius. i hope so desperately.....anyways though i agree that it has to mean something for sure. kishi makes some things obvious (tobi=obito, minato=naruto's dad) but other things he hides very well and obscures his evidence of thinking (itachi = selfless good person, not bad guy)
GREAT WORK!!!![]()
Kishi himself had said in an interview that Sakura has no complicated or detailed backstory, which is why he said Hinata would make the better heroine. Unless he plans on pulling something out of thin air I think Sakura is pretty much getting ready to wrap up.Would be nice, but I can't see Kishi doing much with Sakura to be honest. He's shafted her pretty bad.
I give props to Chatte for ur excellent observation skills so as to point out the minute details of the symbols along with proofs supporting your findings and theory.... excellent work...Ok, I know you will hate me for this, I know you will call this bullshit, I know you'll call me crazy.
That's why, I am making a call to those ones who are reasonable persons.
So, I've noticed this since Naruto in Kurama mode appeared, but I didn't said anything before just because I know some fans would jump in my head... HOWEVER, after researching a bit, I came with some back-up to my claims.
Behold! Lol. xd
As we all know, this is Naruto in Kurama mode costume.

Now, before calling me crazy or anything, let's remember some things here and there about Sakura.
As we know, at the beginning when Kishi was explaining us about chakra he shows to us that it originates from the belly area, and coincidence or not, the one to explain to Naruto is none other than Sakura.

So basically he is saying that he inner strength comes from the belly area, the chakra. Also, later on, Kishi introduces the idea that true strength comes when you are protecting someone you care about. When Naruto fought Gaara, Sakura was the source of his strength all throughout the fight.
If you're saying to me that it's not true, let us remember this:

You would say at this time, nah, it's coincidence! But I wonder, is it?... How comes that when Itachi puts Naruto in genjutsu, symbolistically Sakura appears exactly from his belly?

I would say that this along with the fact that Sakura's clan symbol is on his belly seems VERY intentional to Kishi.
Also, symbolistically, Kushina's seal has a similar appearance during Naruto's birth.

Now I know all NH fans will jump in my head, but let's face it, Kushina is similar to Sakura so for once, please, just let your hatred home and let's be rational.
Before saying it has nothing to do with it, it is a simple drawing, let's not forget this: the markings of the Sage's necklace near Naruto's throat that reminds us of Itachi's necklace and coincidentally or not, Itachi's Susano'o as well as Madara's happen to hold that necklace.

So, what do you guys think it might mean? Around here and there, I found that Sakura's clan (?) symbol would mean something like a chinese symbol of the duality between heaven and earth and the connection between both.
Now, we know that in part 1, Iruka symbolistically called Naruto (earth) and Sakura (heaven).

Also, funny enough... Naruto is a city, in Tokushima... Guess what symbol has? The Uzumaki symbol within the Haruno circle...

Also, funny enough, there's this food called Narutomaki(curiously enough, resembles Ramen).

Narutomaki (鳴門巻き/なると巻き?) or naruto (ナルト/なると?) is a type of kamaboko, or cured fish surimi produced in Japan. Each slice of naruto has a pink () or red (
) spiral pattern, which resembles the Naruto whirlpools (
) in the Naruto Strait between Awaji Island and Shikoku in Japan.
Oh, about the belly thing, I reminded one thing more, in his fight over Kurama's chakra, guess who was helping him and through what area this battle was held? (sorry if it sounded weird) Yes, the belly.

Isn't funny enough that before that, in Pein arc, as his seal was broken, Naruto's Uzumaki symbol was breaking, transforming itself into a circle with that black hole inside, similar to the Haruno symbol?

So, what do you guys think?! Coincidence or not? We know Kishi doesn't add things for nothing...
Do you know something more that could complete this enigma?
Let's discuss.
But may I remind you, be polite! Any intent for flaming will be reported to the mods!
Thank you!
