I stopped reading after the bold in red. No wonder you made this piss poor irrelevant thread. People like you are the reason that people don't like Sakura.
Ohhhhhhh my GOD...... Did you not realize that there was a spelling mistake? What I mention is "I am not saying she is powerful, or that she should be in the top ten or twenty"

Sakura is dope af in my eyes, but you gotta just accept the fact the people have different opinions and those who hate Sakura have their reasons. You can't change their mind with such feeble attempts. With some people it's like talking to a wall. You can talk all you want but they stay unswayed and in the end you look like an idiot for trying to persuade those who already have their mind set

Sakura's image and personality is the main reason why people despise or hate her. It is not odd or confusing because throughout all of part one, she was summarized as useless, annoying and completely irrelevant. Growing up with a normal family, having regular everyday boy crushes trying to please that certain guy, and going throughout the whole series not even training or getting stronger. And, you want to ask the question, why do people bash her and call her useless? Foolish.
Her only usefulness in part one was crying and complaining. Even when it came to Sasuke's departure, Sakura pleaded and begged to Naruto to bring him back, knowing that "only because it involves Sasuke" that she would even ask Naruto for help. Selfish.

Now we jump to Shippuden, which was a quick surprise and shock to most people to find out that she "just turned into Tsunade junior". No one likes a copy cat, and this is probably another reason as to why no one likes her. She has no goddamn diversity and only has the same techniques as her mentor. Look at Naruto and Sasuke. Naruto learned the Rasengan from Jiraiya and Sasuke learned the Chidori from Kakashi. Even though they learned these techniques from other people, they still tweeked the basics and made it into their own jutsu. Naruto with many versions of the Rasengan and Sasuke with multiple Chidori variants. Wha does Sakura have? Medical skill and enhanced strength which is only knock off of Tsunade. Spare me. This girl has not once used any type of nature affinities that is ninjutsu. She is a boring character. As I said before, you ask the question, "why people bash and degrade Sakura"? But what do you expect of someone is so far down in the food chain. Her not being from a special clan. Is that supposed to make her better? I don't think so. Why don't we talk about Lee and why people underestimate him and don't appreciate his accomplishments? Why not, I mean after all, he was born from just an ordinary family. What about Tenten, her usage with certain ninja tools, but, yet she doesn't get any praise or recognition. I could go on and on, but it would be pointless as you would still sleep all over her mosquito bite tits.

I doubt. She is normal, she is just ignored by everyone except Tsunade or has been holding back.
Tsunade trained her and she learned jutsu name skills fairly quickly, it probably only took her a couple of weeks, and tai jutsu being the only thing she had to train for.
Sakura skills are the most unique and can't be replicated, much like her masters.
She is intelligent
She has a strong will.
Perfect chakra control,
And mind control resistance.
She basically is like a super duper genjutsu type, who was already the she strongest of mind, but instead of utilizing this potential of hers, she first build up her weakness,
Her being weak of body,
As in most fantasy based literature , those with the mental powers and normally weak of body, but thanks to Tsunade, Sakura has one of the strongest bodies, both physically and durability wise. So now she has a strong mind which she was born with, and a strong body.

So logically should she utilized her mental prowess in conjunction with her physical prowess, she should be virtually unstoppable, and seeing as how she chakra control dominates those of others, I doubt her genjutsu would be able to be broken free of.

Lately there has been many threads about Sakura and how weak and useless she is. So I created this thread to voice my own opinion about Sakura and that in fact she is a powerful and useful character... Probably one of the best I have seen (Keep reading and you will understand).

Out of all the characters introduced in the manga (Naruto) Sakura is the only normal one out of the bunch (Excluding Rock lee). Now what do I mean be normal..... The characters that have been created gave been given special abilities and skills:

Naruto: Blood of a uzumaki and container of the demon fox.
Sasuke: Blood of the uchiha and sharingan (MS/EMS).
Gaara: Ability to control sand and contains a tailed demon.
Shikumaru: Shadow possession and amazing mind.
Ino: Mind possession and control (Telepathy)
Kiba: Akumaru
Shino: Bugs
Neji: Byakugun
Hinata: Byakugun
Choji: Body manipulation (inlarge limbs)
Etc... Etc... Etc

All these characters have something in common, they all belong to a certain clan with a certain ability/skill or blood line. However Sakura doesn't... She is the only person that does not belong to a certain clan, ability, skil, and blood line. While everyone else used and excelled in there specific ability Sakura was left alone and used what she had (Basic power and skill that is similar to everyone else really).
Unlike everyone else within the manga (Naruto) Sakura is truly the only right and normal ninja that had to work harder then everyone else and achieve great stature. Even after the 3 year time skip when Sakura trained under tsunade she worked harder then everyone else because she only had good chakra control to work with (unlike everyone else) who just needed to up there game with there special jutsu's. But still many people bag her, even now, all her achievements that she has accomplished..... People stil BAG her.

Sakura's achievements are without a doubt very good, she has gained a very good reputation and has excelled in medical jutsu, she has gained unbelievable strength which is second to only tsunade, and in this war alone has saved hundreds even thousands of ninja's. She is also now keeping Naruto the main character alive. Sakura has fought with powerful ninja's such as Sasori and walked away with victory (A win is a win). She is also the only character that didn't need actual saving (How many times has sasuke and Naruto Been on deaths door??)

All in all... The summery

Sakura with no special gift or power (note: many people have gained haxxed powers) has excelled to become one of the best and powerful ninja. She is without a doubt a formidable opponent that can go toe to toe with many people across the Naruto world (no fanboism). There has been a few times where she did hesitate (Such as the sasuke confrontation) but if you or anyone else was in her shoe's they would have done the same thing.... It's not easy to kill a friend someone who you like. And if you bring up that madara thing then my friend you are with out a doubt a fool.

Thank you an sorry for spelling.

she still needs kitchen sage mode to enter top ten

Oh my goodness thank you :D(Finally)

Her medical skills, which she learned from Tsunade are impressive, but Shizune and even Tsuande herself also have great medical feats. Hell, even Kabuto's medical prowess surpasses Sakura when it comes to experience and knowledge. It's not a big deal when characters like Shizune and Kabuto already have medical feats similar if not better than hers who aren't from any special clans either.

Her physical strength still pales In comparison to Tsunade's, so I don't know why that's a big deal. She has no chakra nature affinity and is mediocre if not fodder level compared to the majority of characters from Naruto and they aren't from any special clans like Deidara, Sasori, Konan, Hidan, Kakuzu, Lee, Gai, etc..) Just because she isn't from a special clan does not mean you can use it as an excuse for her being considered great when it's not even the case. Lee started from nothing and look where he is. A taijutsu genius who wasn't born from any special clan and knew nothing about ninjutsu or genjutsu.

You people need to stop using the excuse of a special clan to justify for her short comings to achievements that aren't even great in an overall standpoint of this story, when other non special people (as I mentioned) are way stronger than her.
The problem with your argument is that, all of the people you mentioned except Lee are many years older than her. Of course they are stronger and better because they had more training and experiences. :cool:

People bash Sakura mainly because they don't like her personality. Same with Tsunade. :p
You don't see people calling other females like Konan, Mei or born "normal" characters useless as much as they do her. O_O

It's because throughout all of Part 1 and several parts of Shippuden Sakura did nothing but cry and rely on others.She's been saved so many times it's not even funny.

It was always my belief that Kishi intentionally wrote her to be an irritating, selfish and immature girl. From the man who created Naruto-dattebayo-Uzumaki it's not hard to comprehend that a LOT of people dislike her for valid reasons.

With that in mind I don't understand why so many people actually like her.

After the last episode of 'I hate my parents, I wish I was an orphan' - I don't think I'll ever be able to do much but tolerate her for a few panels.

... what is it that you like about the character Sakura Haruno?

When you think about it, it's actually really sad that anyone can think she's some sort of positive influence on anything or has some deeper meaning to her character. She was made to embody human weakness and irrationality.

To identify with that is like identifying with... I can't even think of a good comparison, she's so shitty.

naruto worked way harder and learned alot more up to pain fight without using the fox, sakura just had great chakra control nothing major. I would think kakashi, gai, and lee worked alot more harder with what they dealt with. Sakure's biggest struggle was sasuke leaving lol

:snick:

True. It's probably why Hinata is vastly more popular... which itself it kind of sad considering the little panel space Hinata gets compared to Sakura.

(About Naruto and Sasuke) "Naruto's here because he's made up his mind… my resolve is nothing compared to his now! I'm supposed to be a ninja, but all I've ever done is lean on him and cry… I was supposed to change that… I came here and I thought I was ready. But I can't do anything… I can't say anything. The only thing that remains for me… is to believe in them!"
A redeeming quality is that she recognises that much - pity it took till around about the Kage Summit for her to realise it. Right after that epic-fail rogue mission of her's to assassinate Sasuke... with a poisoned kunai.

truthfully- I get your point- however, the biggest reason people call Sakura useless is not even related to Part 2 Naruto. Part 2 Sakura is obviously competent ( however with private Sanin tutoring who wouldn't).

-I imagine alot of people still remember part 1 Sakura. The girl who definitely was useless, arrogant, and downright mean to the protagonist. Sure, Naruto was a brat- but atleast when shit hit the fan he acted ( zabuza, Gaara, etc...). Remember Sakura vs Ino?
The only version of Sakura that was "useless" is part 1 sakura- however even to this day people don't forget how useless she was as a kid.

For me, I never disliked her because she was useless ( in part 1) even though she was- I disliked her because of her personality. She talked alot, loved Sasuke like a idiot, and was generally a hindrance.

So, besides from hanging on to the idea of useless Part 1 Sakura- I doubt anyone truly believes she is a terrible ninja currently. Its just that her sucking so bad for the entire part 1 of naruto kinda stuck around in peoples head and its hard to let go. For long time Naruto fans, Correlating Sakura to useless is almost a reflex.

-However, I feel that the real reason Sakura is bashed had nothing to do with ability, past or present. It has to do with character. People exagerate sakura's lack of skill because she is unliked by most of the base. I agree with them, I think sakura is a fairly terrible person, and I typically don't like it when she gets panel-time.

Since part 1 she has gained competence, however she has yet to let go of her annoying personality. Let me explain.

Why Sakura Sucks-

I felt like strangling her when she blatantly lied to Naruto ( trying to manipulate his feelings). thats such a ***** move. I doubt I will ever tolerate her, due to this event. Not only that, but even after lieing to Naruto, and poisening her comrades, she is unable to stab Sasuke. Furthermore, after being saved by naruto she ended up poisening him- which if a battle actually happened it would have caused his death.

During the juubi battle- I saw she improved- I thought I might actually like her- then she goes on and gets cocky as hell saying that she caught up to naruto and sasuke. So, she gets a little bit of power? that has a two year prep-time and she thinks she can tussle with naruto and Sasuke?- right after saying how she caught up- she needed saving- Right after saying she caught up to Naruto and sasuke- she goes right back to the sidelines...

I really don't care how strong you are- or what powers you have- ultimatly- I could care less if Sakura becomes a juubi jin- I still won't tolerate her.

- She can be the strongest ninja in the verse and she still won't have the mentality of a ninja. She still won't meet her goals, she will still be a *****, and she still won't be able to endure.

Being a ninja is about enduring, Naruto, Sasuke both endure. Sakura has had multiple oppurtunities to showcase her character but every time she screws up!!! Enduring is fighting a superior opponent, knowing you will loose ( hinata vs Pein) What does Sakura do when she see's someone stronger? that's right she stops breathing.

People don't dislike sakura because she is fodder ( she isn't, she is actually strong for her age) they downplay her because of her abhorrent personality.


Edit- For those saying she has great control- you do realize that one of the biggest reasons she has amazing control is because of her puny ( I mean miniscule) reserves. It was established early part 1 that less reserves means easier chakra control.

basically,- Sakura was a natural at chakra control because she had tiny reserves. Considering that Kyubi Mode Naruto has much more than 100x her reserves that means chakra control is 100x harder for him atleast!!..... --- Really takes away from her "perfect control" doesn't it??
