Same goes for the movie, the Last. It depends on the featured content inside and if they fall in the series timeline. At any rate, they would be at least as "canon" as the anime filler, if not more so, considering that the novels are called epilogue and Kishi illustrated them himself. For me it means he had more involvement in these projects, than the movie, comparatively.

I know, I don't consider it (The Last) canon despite it being blessed and promoted as such; mainly for the simple fact that it doesn't affect anything, really. :| I'm not gonna watch it and it isn't really necessary for the story. I am fine how the manga ended which could have been a bit better, but overall wasn't bad. :p

Yeah, I agree with that, probably more "canon" than the anime filler as I don't think any of that was blessed "canon", but if they (the novels) weren't canonically blessed; they'd basically be anime filler in novel format. Regardless, I honestly expect to see SP animate them (the novels). They wouldn't have to do much work thinking up the plot; it's already done. :p

Although, Illustrations =/= Canon. But, I agree at that last point. :p

Edit: I am confused, are they "blessed" canon or not? :|


So, Man of Sin's alt? :skorm:

I will only consider them canon if news comes out that they are.In absence of information,always be conservative as one of the tried and tested accounting principlesU_U

Its completely possible.

The novels cover things that were not covered in the manga, chapter 700 doesn't have everything, just because Gaara's love interest didn't get panel time doesn't mean she can't exist.

It would actually be a mistake from Kishi to waste panel time on an unknown character in the final chapter when he could have shown more valuable things.

Well Lee was wasted there along with TenTen and they arent getting anything

Well, she has some genjutsu resistance feats.

1 canon feat during the Chunin exams. But that feat also belongs to Shikamaru and Shino.



Sakura has never cast a genjutsu. So how can she be a genjutsu type?

She broke Naruto out of the Genjutsu in the movie IIRC

I know. It was a poorly executed idea by Kishi. I only said that since someone said that the new movie implied that Sakura was one of the best in Konoha with regards to genjutsu resistance. I haven't seen the movie myself though, so I can't comment on the validity of the aforementioned statement.

They are not canon yet as Kishi dint say so.He also designed Mecha Naruto and the charas in the Storm game that came out but they aint canon are they?



But if they are blessed canon Kishi might as well also say the NH fillers which are undoubtedly gonna come up soon are canon too

Here is the scene in question

It was a benign genjutsu that showed a person their memories. Naruto though was reliving his memories as well as Hinata's memories. He goes back and forth from their time as children to scenes that happened earlier in the movie from Hinata's POV.


I wouldn't read much into the scene. It's obviously there for plot reasons.

She has got enough Yin stuff already.
Sakura is genjutsu type but not at the same level as Uchihas are.

She does?
She really has nothing but intellect, strong will and Genjutsu resistance lol.
Also the last statement is false, if she were to use genjutsu via touch,sound,smell, or taste (lol) the Uchiha would be put to shame, given her chakra control, and she is adapt in remote chakra control

Both Lord Sasuke and Naruto surpassed her in chakra control a long time ago

Indeed.Kurenai turned out to be a epic fail.Looked a little bad ass at first then Itachi made her abilites look like a complete pathetic joke and after she became pregnant needed to be rescued from a monster which Sakura soloed with one punch

She even had the badass eyes :/

I think that it's....

Chakra quality (strong chakra) - Sasuke>Naruto>Sakura
Chakra pool - Naruto>Sasuke>Sakura
Chakra control - Sakura> I don't really know who has better chakra control out of Naruto or Sasuke :/
