Sakura is SO selfish!

[solarflare012]

Then the question still is: is she really over him or is she just lying to herself? She can try to convince herself that she's over Sasuke, but who knows if that's true? It wouldn't be the first time that humans lied to themselves.
And personally if Kishimoto-sensei lets Naruto end up with Sakura, I would be very disappointed. He deserves someone who goes for him with her whole being (or his LOL) not getting picked as second choice because the first one left and she only realized he was always there for her after a few years -_-

I think, if I were in Sakura's situation, if someone I liked tried to kill me, I'd be over them in a heartbeat. I mean, who says he wouldn't do it again? That'd always be at the back of my mind.

And I think if he got with Hinata, that'd be bad because he and she don't do anything together. They barely see each other and when they do she gets flustered and quiet. There is no liesure time they spend together. They don't really know each other. There is no private jokes or build up in this pairing. At least, not on Naruto's end. He needs a woman who can be there for him. He needs someone who can handle his wild impulses. He needs someone who knows him inside and out. That is indeed Sakura.
If I was to show someone I'm the better man than who they liked, that'd be a major accomplishment in my eyes.

I never said I wanted him to end up with Hinata (though she is preferable over Sakura in my opinion). You're right about Hinata - he and she doesn't spend much time together, but that's because they are in different teams and thus don't have time to get together. The only reason why Sakura knows him well is because she's his teammate. I would have been more disappointed in her if she didn't know him after all those years. So saying she's a good match for him based on the fact that she knows him well, isn't a good argument in my opinion. Any other girl placed with him in a team would have resulted in the same thing. If Tenten had been placed in his team, she would have known him well too. Same for Hinata, Ino etc.
(And truthfully, the only one who can really handle him is Sasuke because in my opinion they have a deeper bond than the one Naruto shares with Sakura - not saying their bond isn't deep, but not as deep as the one with Sasuke. The prove being that after having had a Chidori right through his lung and after rejection after rejection, Naruto still chases after Sasuke and Sasuke still hasn't killed him despite all the opportunities he has had.)

There is so much more than the fact that she's his teammate as to why they could be together. I mean, that is a good point, but the fact that they are on the same team means they have been through SO much together. When you have a certain history of one going out of their way for the other, it shows that they truly care for each other. They've been seen together doing so much that isn't mission based. She sees him in the hospital, at Ichiraku's, on the streets of Konoha and so forth. I mean, it all boils down to history. When two people have a strong build-up together, it becomes increasingly easy to see how they may get together. So there is more to the argument that they're "just teammates" than there appears to be. If he had been paired with Ino, Tenten, or Hinata, he wouldn't have talked or interacted with them nearly as much because his personality is so different from theirs. He and Sakura are so alike which is why they spend time together.

How exactly are they alike? I'm sorry, but I don't see why they are so alike.
And the only reason why they spend so much time together is because, as you said, they created a history because they are teammates. Before they were placed in the same time, Sakura couldn't care less about Naruto - her behaviour in the beginning of the manga proves that. It's only when he started to show that he's not the idiotic dumbass everyone thought him to be, that she started paying attention to him.
And Naruto would have spend time with whoever he ended up in a team together. That's just how he is. Even if his personality wasn't compatible with others, he would still interact with them.

Actually i have to agree with solar on this one. Just because how else can you love someone without getting to know them? Its like saying you don't know who you truly love unless you date everyone or see everyone in the world.

Well, like I said, the only reason why Sakura knows him so well is because they are on the same team. If she hadn't been placed on the same team, she would never have bothered to get to know him. After all he was just an annoying kid in her opinion.
That's why I momentarily switched Sakura with Ino, Hinata and Tenten. If they had been on the same team as Naruto, they would have got to know him well too. That's why I didn't find their shared history a good argument as to why they would be a good couple. Let's be honest: would Sakura have bothered to get to know Naruto if she wasn't in the same team as him? No. Why? Because she would have nothing in common with him. Being on the same team made her share experiences with him and through that she got to know him better. Without being members of the same team, I doubt she would have ever started a conversation with him. - especially not if Sasuke was still in the village.

And yet even though Sasuke told Naruto he had severed his bond with him, he still hasn't killed him. If he had really wanted to, he would have killed Naruto. He had those opportunities every time they met, but instead of that, he talks to him and when he attacks, it isn't a killing move. If you ask me, Sasuke is hesitant to kill Naruto for some reason.
With Sakura however, it's true that he severed his bond with her - that was obvious in the chapter he attacked her before Naruto rescued her.
And like I stated in my post - if I consider someone my best friend, I would never give up on them - because I know how they really are. And you can't say that Sasuke doesn't have good reasons to hold a grudge against the Council of Konoha. That's why Naruto is in my opinion a fantastic character - he still supports Sasuke because he considers him as his best friend and because he still remembers the boy Sasuke was before he got the curse mark.
I'm sorry but I still stand by my opinion of Sakura: she's not weak, indeed, she can hold her own in a battle, but the way she handles Naruto, her feelings and Sasuke ... Sorry, but that's something I very dislike in her character. She may love Naruto - who knows, maybe it's true - but if I was Naruto, I would always be left wondering if she really loves me, or if some part is still reserved for Sasuke. And he would be right in wondering about that, considering how she acted around Sasuke for years and how she treated him first.
Now, if you like Sakura, that's fine with me - we all have characters we like more than others, but I don't like her and will never like her, whatever she will do in the future *shrugs*

Sasuke already said he let Naruto live at the valley of end on a whim, he didn't want to gain the MS like Itachi and it was before he said he severed his bond with him. When the first met in shippuden Sasuke was going to kill Naruto until Sai stopped him then Orochimaru stopped him. Have to add that Naruto was still weaken from his 4 tails transformation. Clearly Sasuke doesn't care if Naruto dies but he had no other chances to kill him after that since Naruto gotten stronger and wasn't weaken. I'm just saying Naruto has the ability to win people over and have already won a lot of people over. Sakura should be no different.

Okay so she loves Naruto big whoop you still haven't given any reason to prove why her love for sasuke<her love for naruto. She loves two people at the same time and the question is who does she love more? The last part of your post makes it as if Sakura bases all her decisions on logic when in fact her emotions have no logical backing to them whatsoever. What made her like Sasuke in the first place and better yet what made her continue liking sasuke after he left Konoha? The thing is that as of now Sakura loves Sasuke more than she does Naruto.

As I said before, Sasuke was Sakura's first love but she started to love him for all of the wrong reasons. Just becasue Sasuke was cool and she was physically attracted to him, she never really got to know Sasuke even a little bit until he was leaving the village. Yamato saw that Sakura loved Naruto, she wanted to learn how to turn Naruto back to normal if he went fox form and be of more use to him. She was even flirting with Naruto in the first episode until he started to act childish, he even said "I got to stop acting like an idiot in front of Sakura before she kills me" (forgot what episode it happened in tho). Kushina didn't like Minato at first but sometime later he saved her and she fell for him, Sakura is always being saved by Naruto so it can happen.

She also said they will be together instead of saying they will fight together, she then adds everyone after that. I know it can mean other things but I think it was worded that way for a reason.


So from what I understand you are saying that Sakura loves Naruto ONLY because he's been around her more. Just pray to your shipping god that Sasuke doesn't come back to the village or Hinata doesn't make due on her promise.

No, I'm saying Sakura has been with Naruto for along time an have watched him grow at a person and ninja. She could always count on Naruto but can't on Sasuke. Time has passed from when Yamato practically told Sakura he could tell she love Naruto and her feelings for him would grow as she watch him grow. Like when Tobi kicked Naruto into the pond which scared Hinata but Sakura said it will take more than that to take down Naruto so focus on Tobi instead and after he beat Pain she was thinking to herself on how much he grew and I think she was blushing.

In other words, if he hadn't left, she wouldn't have looked twice at Naruto. Maybe she would have grown out of her crush (we will of course never know) but it's unlikely considering her character. And I seriously doubt she would have chosen for Naruto with Sasuke still in the village. That's the point I'm trying to make: she chooses Naruto just because he hasn't left her and because she realizes that Sasuke isn't the one she thought he was. Of course we will never know it, but if Sasuke had stayed, she would probably still be crushing on him and never think of Naruto in that way.
@Swizzik: not all girls are like that. I'm a girl and I can honestly say I wouldn't never jump from one guy to another because the first one didn't meet my expectations LOL

Well you have to remember Naruto still would be training with Jiraiya, Sakura would have been training with Tsunade (maybe) and Saauke would be focused on his training either with Kakashi or by himself. Kakashi didn't even seen Sakura that much in the 2 1/2 time skip so I doubt Sakura and Sasuke would have to. Remember both would be chunin (Sasuke might have been Jounin) so would be teamed up with other teammates too, team 7 wasn't remade until Naruto returned and even when they were missing 2 members they got 2 new members. Sakura was flirting with Naruto when they met in Shippuden until he was acting childish with Konohamaru. The more she sees how much Naruto grew, the more likely she would like him where as Sasuke would still be ignoring her.

I never said I wanted him to end up with Hinata (though she is preferable over Sakura in my opinion). You're right about Hinata - he and she doesn't spend much time together, but that's because they are in different teams and thus don't have time to get together. The only reason why Sakura knows him well is because she's his teammate. I would have been more disappointed in her if she didn't know him after all those years. So saying she's a good match for him based on the fact that she knows him well, isn't a good argument in my opinion. Any other girl placed with him in a team would have resulted in the same thing. If Tenten had been placed in his team, she would have known him well too. Same for Hinata, Ino etc.
(And truthfully, the only one who can really handle him is Sasuke because in my opinion they have a deeper bond than the one Naruto shares with Sakura - not saying their bond isn't deep, but not as deep as the one with Sasuke.

Sasuke only had 3 opportunities, 1st in the valley of end but he said he didn't kill him on a whim since he didn't want to get the MS like Itachi did. 2nd Sai blocked his sword. 3rd Orochimaru stopped him s they can kill more Akatsuki members. That's all, Sasuke had no other opportunities to kill Naruto. Not to mention Naruto was never fight to kill unlike Sasuke which can mean a lot in a fight. Kiba seems to like Hinata alittle, Ino and Choji, TenTen and Neji lol.

Guess you missed this.. Stated clearly that she is the exact same as Naruto from the beginning

They've gotta hate someone so why not go for the girl who hides her emotions for the main character with anger. Then go on to say she is weak useless when she's one of the few females in the show who has proved she's anything but (ESPECIALLY compared to the other girls her age in Konoha). Makes them come off as really ignorant..

The only thing that says she's the same as Naruto is her ability to never give up - that's all I could read from that page. Sasuke never gives up either, so you can say he's the same as Naruto too if you pick that ability to show they are alike. Maybe there are other pages where they show their alikeness, but I can't remember anything else

I think she was telling the truth. Like I said, it has been heavily hinted that she does have feelings for him and they've been developing since they met after the time skip. Naruto never said she didn't love him. He said she was lying to herself because she said she was completely over Sasuke. That's what made him say that. For her to suddenly say she was over him was hard to believe. But how does he know how she feels about him? He isn't inside her head. He doesn't know much about women to begin with. Sakura could have very well been telling the truth when she said she loved him. We don't know for sure. But I think from the implications, mainly from Sai, she's been falling pretty hard for him all this time.


Back to the thread. All the people who agree with it are certainly entitled to their opinions, but they're unbelievably stupid. I say that because Sakura has proven all this time that she is far from selfish. She is a medical ninja. Sworn to heal and aid in rehabilitation of the sick and wounded. Nobody forced her to take on such a task. Nobody. She did it out of sheer will and desire to protect those around her. More to the point, Sasuke almost killed her twice because she was going out of her way for Naruto. When people go out of their way to help relieve your burdens, that is called being selfless. That's what the board should read. Sakura is SO selfless.

Selfless- Concerned more with the needs and wishes of others than with one's own; unselfish

Who in this series fits the opposite of that definition? Who only thinks about their own fantasies and desires to be with someone? I'm sure you can think of someone.

Wouldnt that make her a bitch then. The fact that she runs after Naruto the moment sasuke isnt around. Sure she stills likes sasuke(bit,or alot) but that really doesnt give her the right to destroy hinata's life. Kishi made it pretty clear how much hinata likes naruto. She even goes as far as stocking him. Don't get me wrong im okaii with sakura, but i dont think hinata is really gonna let him go that easily. And Hinata confesses that she loved Naruto. So the question isnt who gets naruto, Its who does naruto pick. :shrug:

 

[zoeanna]

I think sakura and sasuke would make a cute couple and Naruto and Hinata

 

[MangaPrincessOfPunk]

Girls are like that.

Don't make such a stupid generalization.

 

[RasenLight]

Whatever you people say, love, hate and whatever...

These are my feelings towards the 4 main girls:
I Love Hinata - I think She's brave, incredibly Kawaii, has guts and is willing to sacrifice her own life for the one she loves!
I Like Ino and Tenten! - No special reason, I just like them!
I Hate Sakura - I think she's a f*cking b*tch!
I'd love Hinata and Naruto to end up together.
I'd like Sakura to die a pitiful death in this war!

But what I really Love and enjoy the most is seeing 13 pages of threads in fan wars! Keep going and good evening!

 

[jediknite2]

Kishi just kill sakura ...... End of story...lol

 

[Necron]

There is no proof she does not feel anything though... U_U

 

[SAGEPATH]

I dislike Sakura but its not because she is weak or anything like that(well that's a minor reason) but she pulled a bitch move when she lied to Naruto. I feel that it was just out of the bounds of reason to pull something like that.

1. She didn't do it in private
I mean if your going to do something like that at least do it privately love is not something you just throw around like a shuriken or something.

2.She tried to make Naruto look like a fool
I mean she was basically trying to clown him in front of his teammates, teammates that he has been trying for years to get their respect if Naruto had believed her I think people would have had less respect for him not as a ninja but as a person.

3. She did it for herself
Sakura did it to make herself feel better this is kind of obvious though. I mean she felt all crummy that well she was making Naruto feel bad so she decided to fix the situation by making him a fool in front of his teammates. She wanted to make herself feel better about the whole situation.

4. In front of Hinata too?
Damn this bitch has no heart.
