I know people will disagree with me, but I really like Sakura's character. I used to dislike her in the very beginning of part 1, but I started to like her during the Forest of Death arc, when she cuts off her hair in order to protect Naruto, Sasuke and Lee and tries her best. She is the most human and realistic character of this manga, she doesn't have any kekkei genkai, neither she got any power up, she isn't a member of a noble clan as Sasuke, Naruto and Hinata are...Sakura was an ordinary and weak girl that wasn't even capable to defend herself, but she got stronger on her own. She became one of the best medical ninjas, defeated Sasori, an Akatsuki member, saved many people, including Naruto and Sasuke. Many people may think that her love for Sasuke diminishes her character. I don't think so. Since every character in Naruto has someone as a driving force (Naruto's driving force to become stronger was Sasuke, Sasuke's driving force was Itachi, and so on...), Sakura's driving force to get stronger is her love for Sasuke. I don't see it as a bad thing. I see Sakura as a determined girl that doesn't give up of what she wants, I know she has MANY flaws and made many mistakes, but even though, she is a good and kind girl that did some amazing things. She will always be one of my favorite characters.

@bold: Yup I disagree with you.

It's your opinion =p


I also would like to point that Sakura almost gave up on Sasuke when she tried to kill him with a poisoned kunai, while Naruto never gave up. Naruto is even more "obsessed" in chase after Sasuke but nobody says that it diminishes his character. He lost and arm to save Sasuke and nobody says that it destroys his character development.

Please, don't be so butthurt, Kishi just made NaruHina canon and you are still angry about Sakura being the heroine.

Calling me butt hurt just because I said something Valid? How original of you . But, yes, I am upset Sakura was the charcater who became the main heroine, as she is an atrocious character with pathetic development, background, move set, personality, and motives.

Choose your battles... Sakura had more development, panel time, and relevance in the arcs than Hinata, just deal with it, you can't have it all...

The only thing she has more is panel time. Her development.... Let's see....

- Crush hard on angsty douchebag for years on end
- Abandon best friend who saved you because of douchebag, despite said friend not giving a shit when she found out you like the douchebag.
- Get berated, abused and abandoned by douchebag
- Vow to get stronger
- Retain crush on douchebag, to the point of being willing to turn fugitive with him when he becomes a traitor
- Retain crush on douchebag after he vows to destroy her home, and be totally unable to make douchebag face justice for his crimes
- Have douchebag attempt to murder her
- Resolve to step back and let the boys take care of things
- Get extremely outclassed by the hero in her major field of expertise
- Briefly cooperate with douchebag and hero to save the world; then witness douchebag declare his nonsensical intentions to murder the hero and kill all world leaders.
- Get incapacitated by douchebag like a chump.
- Douchebag says he's really really sorry about all the above
- Get impregnated by the douchebag
- Get abandoned to raise the child by yourself while the douchebag wanders the world as a brooding hobo
- Be content


And I've never said Hinata is more relevant than Sakura, just that she would have a much better choice . And that's not an opinion .

Yeah, I agree, I think she reminds us of failure and that's why people don't like her.

It is my opinion. But honestly I don't see anything good about her. She had potiential in part 2. Just never went on to fullfill it.

A person's self esteem has to be pretty low for them to become house wife to someone who tried to kill them.

What did you expect, Sakuras entire character arc has been nothing but pairing shit for the entirety of the manga bar that one arc where she fought that puppet guy. Even if she had ended up as Nardos trophy wife it still wouldn't have redeemed her character, I guess it might've made some tiers worth of difference tough: from vomit tier to all time shittiest in manga history.

A lot of them have done a complete 180 and are now bashing her.

It's wonderful, I tell you.

Sakura is among one of the worst written entities I've ever come across. Her "relationship" with Naruto (and with Sasuke as well) is complete shit and there was no inclination of either of them wanting a romantic one after Naruto shot her ass down the first time.


Even if she had become Naruto's bottom b*tch, which I thank God she didn't because she doesn't deserve it, it wouldn't have made her character arc any better. She was officially ruined and irredeemable at Kage Summit. This is just icing on the shit-cake.
