It's because compared to the 3 main characters of the story
Sasuke,Naruto and Kakashi. Sakura is very little on development compared to them.
sakura went out of her way to ask Tsunade for training , all by herself, asking a Hokage for training. That's pretty bold.
Part 1 Sakura was honestly nothing but a burden to the team, and she herself acknowledges this. She didn't do anything part 1 to help the team besides protecting Naruto and Sasuke during the chunnin exams, but that is it.
She protected Sasuke/Naruto in the forest while they couldn't defend themselves. If she hadn't then Lee would've gotten their too late to help at all. She had nothing to do with Sasuke / Naruto trying to kill each other on the hospital rooftop. She tried to stop them.
She didn't progress until part 2 which is sad as hell. .
who else progressed in part 1 besides Sakura?
Now part 2, she was perfectly fine. Helped kankuro and fought Sasori, but then she went back down hill.
May I ask, how many battles has Sakura fought after the Sakura and chiyo vs Sasori and the little 15 seconds of fame of her taking down a pein summon..to bad Naruto was out there by himself fighting off all the peins.
who else fought Pein? The whole Leaf Shinobi who were their at the time aside from ROOT.
Sakura fought more than every female in the series.
She didn't even get a new damn power-up until just recently, she got 15 seconds of fame. Where she is now?
Having little orgasm on Tsunade giving her praise for healing a bunch of useless fodder who are going to be seen dead in about 4-5 chapters so we can get another life time speech.
who else got power-ups? Its not Sakura's fault for bad writing in the series
Now, it is great she is healer and all. More power to her, but the problem is. Noone really gives a damn about healing,but great. Mind going out there fighting next to your 2 teammates ?
Healing is an even bigger deal now than it was in part 1. Sakura doesn't have a "kekkei genkei" like her teammates do.
She helps to keep people alive who would die otherwise.
Sakura has times to show her prowess but Kishimoto fails to do so. Sakura had a perfect chance, to heal Shikamaru herself.Showing us them skills...nope. She couldn't even get that victory.
its not Sakura's fault. She did keep Shikamaru alive. If it wasn't for her he would have died before Naruto/Kurama and Tsunade could have helped out. So if Sakura wasn't there, Shikamaru wouldn't be hear now. Why didn't Hinata help heal him wasn't she right there as well?
Sakura can be such a better heroine. I had expectations for her, they weren't even that high. All I had for her was to be atleast to be able to be on par with the rest of her teammates.
No one lived up to their potential .. nor did the whole story.

Nope, Don't think so. Until I see her out there, fighting. Like I expected her to do in the first place.
Sakura defeated those mini Juubis the same way Teen Gohan SSJ2 defeated the Cell jr.s.

She is unique and has a likable quality about her, people who dont like and hate on her are generally, misogynist who are afraid to see/intimidated women in power, see human emotion as a weakness, only cares a bout special flashy powers, cant see that she has stretched a penny into a dollar, she turned chakra control into some OP stuff.
LolLol
I could beat her with a pimo slap she isn't strongLol

Does she credit for asking for training?
Why does she even need praise for that?
She doesn't. Shall we praise each character from Naruto who ask for training?

I just acknowledged that..I have no idea why you feel the need to add extra?
I'm sure most off the base knows what happened during that scene.


Naruto and Sasuke..although they did not progress as much as they have in part 2.
They didn't just stand there with a kunai, watching everyone else do the work.

I don't expect little to anything from side characters or fodder ninja so....
And Kakashi fought pein...unfortunately he was the one he died during the battles.
And Hinata, who can get credit for being the only one to go out there and fight him.

Whether she is female who fights more (Which she doesn't. I'm pretty sure, her and side character fight just as much, because that is where her role is more suitable) or not. Does she fight as much as her teammates? Is she engaging in battles as much as her teammates?
Everyone gets their muliple little panels arcs fighting villains except for Sakura, right?


Oh boy, look at our heroine go..

Your right it's not her fault, and I don't blame her for that. It's not like she writes herself.
She is a poorly written character,with (in my opinion) an annoying personality.
Which often leads to dislike/hate for the character rather than the writer.

I dunno, who did get power-ups....this whole time...did you happen to miss it?


Great...it's a bigger deal. But do you think the most of Naruto fandom, really gives a shvt about her 2 panels of her healing a fodder?

Because I don't.


I beg to differ but let's just go with you say and how it doesn't prove anything with I said in my quotes.

I said "it was a perfect time show her prowess and she didn't even get that victory"
What does have to do with anything about me basically saying, that could've been Sakura's panel instead of Tsunade. Then the little comment would've had more depth to it, rather than it being about her healing useless fodder basically.

And what does Hinata have to do with anything?
What could she possibly do? Exactly, nothing.
If that's the case. Where was everyone else?
Kiba...shino... Rock lee....tenten... Why weren't the helping as well?
Don't bring Hinata in this because she is irrelevant as to what we are discussing. Stop asspulling a way to get into a Sakura vs Hinata with me.

Once again I beg to differ. The people, I set expectations for actually met them, and the story is fine to me.


Except, Sakura went back to the regular routine of 3 panels per chapt.
Gohan actually continued on with his spotlight.

That is more in the light of the writer. We sakura fans read the same manga as you. The things you read about her that lead you to not like her did the opposite for others. We aren't forcing her on anyone(most of us).
Yet it still about why she is hated/disliked by some Sakura haters or dislikers.
I'm not saying you guys are wrong for liking but I was simply pointing out to femme other reasons as to why she isn't liked.

If you forced her on people, she would just recieve more haters because for some reason. People seem to not like characters over their fans now and days.


Anyways, Im out. Not bout to be writing wall of text each reply. XD

Naruto and Sasuke didn't just stand there with a kunai, watching everyone else do the work.
neither did sakura, she actually did a job and for a reason.
example, she was protecting the bridge builder.

And Kakashi fought pein...unfortunately he was the one he died during the battles.
And Hinata, who can get credit for being the only one to go out there and fight him.
Sakura is the one who healed Hinata after she failed to land a strike on Pein(manga/canon)
Hinata only went out there because Naruto was out there. If Hinata really wanted to do something courageous , she should have tried to change the way fo the Hyuga clan. If they allowed the branch family to gain access to the special hyuga jutsu then the Leaf would be more powerful.

Whether she is female who fights more (Which she doesn't. I'm pretty sure, her and side character fight just as much, because that is where her role is more suitable) or not. Does she fight as much as her teammates? Is she engaging in battles as much as her teammates?
Everyone gets their muliple little panels arcs fighting villains except for Sakura, right?
sakura fights: kakashi, zabuza, orochimaru, zaku, gaara, sasori,

Your right it's not her fault, and I don't blame her for that. It's not like she writes herself.

lots of characters in this manga are annoying. sakura is meant to be an annoying character.
I dunno, who did get power-ups....this whole time...did you happen to miss it?
the kids from Sakura's class all got power-ups. she is not poorly written.


I beg to differ but let's just go with you say and how it doesn't prove anything with I said in my quotes.

.
sakura kept shikamaru alive and he isn't a useless fodder, he is a genius shinobi who has helped greatly in this war and all throughout the manga. he is also one of the better and more developed characters in this story.
It wasn't Tsunade's panel, it was all their panels: Sakura, Naruto, Tsunade and Shikamaru also Ino.
And what does Hinata have to do with anything?
What could she possibly do? Exactly, nothing.
If that's the case. Where was everyone else?
Hinata is a medical ninja so why didn't she help Sakura with the healing? She has a byakugan which can see through the body and pin point any internal injuries.

Once again I beg to differ. The people, I set expectations for actually met them, and the story is fine to me.
what kind of expectations did you have for Sakura if she didn't meet them as oppose to the others expectations as well?

Except, Sakura was went back to the regular routine of 3 panels per chapt.
Gohan actually continued on with his spotlight.
Gohan still needed Goku and everyone else to help finish off an already dead character(Cell). You probably don't watch DBZ though so my bad.
Yet it still about why she hated/disliked by some Sakura haters or dislikers.

whats that supposed to mean? People shouldn't listen to others for their own judgments.

She is liked because:
1. Feminists like every female character
2. "Attractiveness" which is weird, because she's a anime character.
3. Personality (some like her, some don't)
4. For a female character, she's quite strong.
5. She has done some useful stuff (healed alliance, summons Katsuyu, fought Sasori, helped figure out Zetsu's secret, etc)(
6. Pairings. Which is quite sad.

She is unique and has a likable quality about her, people who dont like and hate on her are generally, misogynist who are afraid to see/intimidated women in power, see human emotion as a weakness, only cares a bout special flashy powers, cant see that she has stretched a penny into a dollar, she turned chakra control into some OP stuff.
I don't like Sakura because she reminds me of my ex. Personality, punching, and all. She cried a lot, punched me a lot, and was too clingy. Always asking, "Are you hanging out with her?" And shit like that. That's the reason I don't like her.

I actually liked her in part one, but that was before I dated someone EXACTLY like her. Then I was like, "I wish some snake pedophile would take me away from her....Sasuke is lucky..."

But I like Tsunade. For some reason. She just seems more mature to me. That's probably because she's in her fifties though.

I can see multiple reasons, really. For one, she's more intelligent than Sasuke and Naruto, canonically. Unlike Naruto and Sasuke, she wasn't gifted with the Kyuubi or a Sharingan. Not to mention the chakra reserves of an Uzumaki or the powerful chakra of an Uchiha. She contrasts very well with both Sasuke and Naruto, and that's why I like her.

your just trolling seriously. obvious answer is because there are people that like her as a character, why does any character have a fanbase? even kiba, ten ten, and moegi have a fanbase somewhere (i have nothing against those characters personally)

everyone likes characters for a reason, if you dont like them...dont bother with them.

Now see, THAT'S impossible. Moegi hasn't done a single thing in the manga to have a fan. Whoever is is full of shit, or just trying to be a hipster and like her because she ain't mainstream.

I just want to say this as person who doesn't like Sakura cause where credit is due, it is very little.

Anyways.
One of the reason, Sakura is not liked and not given "credit" where it is due, is not because she wasn't born from a powerful clan who is just OP. It's because compared to the 3 main characters of the story
Sasuke,Naruto and Kakashi. Sakura is very little on development compared to them.

Part 1 Sakura was honestly nothing but a burden to the team, and she herself acknowledges this. She didn't do anything part 1 to help the team besides protecting Naruto and Sasuke during the chunnin exams, but that is it.


She didn't progress until part 2 which is sad as hell. Spent that whole damn time, not getting 1 feat and if your going to say genjutsu which wasn't even taken seriously, as we see she became a medic instead.

Now part 2, she was perfectly fine. Helped kankuro and fought Sasori, but then she went back down hill.
May I ask, how many battles has Sakura fought after the Sakura and chiyo vs Sasori and the little 15 seconds of fame of her taking down a pein summon..to bad Naruto was out there by himself fighting off all the peins.

Exactly none.
She didn't even get a new damn power-up until just recently, she got 15 seconds of fame. Where she is now?
Having little orgasm on Tsunade giving her praise for healing a bunch of useless fodder who are going to be seen dead in about 4-5 chapters so we can get another life time speech.

Sakura has times to show her prowess but Kishimoto fails to do so. Sakura had a perfect chance, to heal Shikamaru herself.Showing us them skills...nope. She couldn't even get that victory.

The credit can get is...

She can heal people, she fought and beat an akatsuki member, she took down the pein summon, and she now has a seal.

Good job.
Good job.


Sakura can be such a better heroine. I had expectations for her, they weren't even that high. All I had for her was to be atleast to be able to be on par with the rest of her teammates.

No , she fvcked me over.
Part 1 and part 2, and now she should get my praise?

Nope, Don't think so. Until I see her out there, fighting. Like I expected her to do in the first place.

Expect some heat from me.
lol, solo'd. Exactly my thoughts, + rep.

Dayum girl! This shit is legit. + rep.

Hinata is a medical ninja so why didn't she help Sakura with the healing? She has a byakugan which can see through the body and pin point any internal injuries
Didn't bother taking you serious after this....
You might want to look up your facts, bro...
