Why Does Sakura Love Sasuke?

[Shruikan]

A child being conceived means Sasuke loves Sakura? XD

Kishi emphasized this "connection" Sasuke and Sakura had but he never describes them in the way he does NH for The Last where he says repeatedly that they're IN love or meant to be and how close their LOVE story is to himself and his wife's.

Sasuke said it himself pretty clearly in Gaiden: He and Sakura are connected because Salad exists. Therefore, if she hadn’t been born, he wouldn’t have anything to do with her. They are connected by the child, not their own love. :lol

Also notice how Sakura never tells Salad anything about her relationship with her father while when Hinata tells her and Naruto’s story, Boltsays “I’ve already heard it 100 times!” You’d think Sakura of all people would jump at any chance to tell that story and when we see Salad as a toddler asking Sakura about Sasuke, its been established that he wasn’t on a secret mission (not that it would’ve done any harm anyway) so what’s her excuse?:tea: Oh hey, that's right, she knows jack squat about Sasuke!

Sasuke being all lovey dovey around Sakura is too OOC for him. It cant be shown. He isnt Naruto. Not saying the relationship isnt shit but you cant make a "The Last" just for Sasuke without showing him like his RTN self which was a joke. I think if Sakura had actually joined the Akatsuki with Sasuke it would have been better to develop the relationship from there. Instead Kishi introduced Karin there and she was a joke and in the end both characters suffered badly.

Sasuke has had a dark past. The story isnt worth telling to someone like Salad.

You SS fans really are like little children, aren't you? This is pretty much what every scan there amounts to :lol Just using the first scan as an example, but you can hopefully see how garbage these part 1 (lol) "moments" are.

OOC? A man supposedly loves a woman and it's too OOC for him to show any romantic affections towards her? I've seen plenty of pipe dream SS fan arts that actually do a good job and having SS be mutual w/o making Sasuke OOC. It is possible. Fact remains however, that Sasuke just does not love Sakura. Caring doesn't equate to love. Having a child doens't equate to love. As Shelke ha said many tims, it's nothing more than a marriage to bare a heir.

That pink stain got nothing more than the tips of Sasuke's fingers touching her forehead and she lost her mind over it.

I'm talking about how they fell in love after that, which Sakura can't since they aren't.

After that, Sarada asked Sasuke whether his and Sakura’s hearts are truly connected (thus basically asking him whether they truly love each other), to which he offered an affirmative answer:

Sarada then asked Sasuke how he could be so sure about his and Sakura’s connection and he immediately offered this meaningful answer:

As it can be seen above, in the official Viz Media translation and in the raws for this chapter, Sasuke actually replied with this: “Because you exist, Sarada.”, which literally offers all the explanations we need.
What Sasuke meant while saying that was that Sarada is the living proof of him and Sakura being connected, thus basically stating that she is the proof of him and Sakura loving each other.
Therefore, he basically said that, if he and Sakura hadn’t loved each other, Sarada wouldn’t have existed. She wouldn’t have been born.
But she exists and her simple existence basically represents the love between her parents. They decided to transform their love into a beautiful, precious child and this fact is what is connecting their feelings.
And Sarada understood this right away, as right after hearing Sasuke’s words, she started crying happily and was exremely relieved:

Naruto and Chōchō immediately understood the meaning and importance of Sasuke’s words, as well:

Sasuke catching Sakura after being exhausted really isn't a strong argument in regards to proof of Sasuke caring but....

You must be registered for see images

Ever since he was a child, we all know that Itachi used to poke his forehead in this way; Sasuke never knew the meaning behind it until Itachi’s death. Itachi himself had a huge impact on Sasuke. He was Sasuke’s drive - the one who was behind Sasuke’s path, downfall, and everything that made Sasuke who he was. Just imagine how much Itachi meant to him.

Then, he realized what the gesture itself meant - love.
After the war, he shared something he cherished from Itachi to another precious person in his life: Sakura. Because, in his perspective, this is how Itachi showed his affection for him. This is how Itachi showed how much he loved Sasuke.
And Sasuke wanted to share that love to Sakura.
Basically, this gesture relays a lot of messages:
“I promise I’ll come back to you.”
“When I come home, let’s work something out.”
“Wait for me.”

I'll wait...

So a platonic forehead poke (unless you ship ItaSasu or SakuSalad) that Sakura doesn’t even understand the meaning of. Once again proving that Sasuke views Sakura platonically and that Sakura knows nothing about Sasuke.

You sure showed me.

If he showed them like Naruto did he would end up being RtN Sasuke

Almost all SasuSaku fanarts I have seen all depict him out of character. Him giving wide grins,embracing them both,kissing etc

This is a kids show. Things arent meant to be seen that deep. SasuSaku if developed properly through chapters could have been believable and this was supposed to be the conclusion. We werent shown the development as it was rushed.

She cant state how they fell in love because it wasnt shown or developed properly. With no past scenes there is no way to show Sakura answering that question.

No. Even Madara had is more humane moments, likewise for people like Nagato and Itachi, so-called "serious" characters like Sasuke as well. It could have been done if Kishi wanted it to.

This is a kids show.

No it isn't. Gore and nudity don't qualify as a kids show.

Things arent meant to be seen that deep.

:lol Yes they are, go read the manga.

SasuSaku if developed properly through chapters could have been believable and this was supposed to be the conclusion. We werent shown the development as it was rushed.

Like I said before, SS is bad both from a meta and in-universe POV. You can argue it didn't get development all you want, but the same applies to most other pairings. Regardless, from an in-universe POV, all of them sans SS are healthy.

She cant state how they fell in love because it wasnt shown or developed properly. With no past scenes there is no way to show Sakura answering that question.

Flashbacks exist.

 

[iNotorious]

Isn't Sakura supposed to be the fangirl cliche? RIPPERINOS. I wanted her to end alone.

 

[Darth AniCetuS]

Sasuke loves Sakura so much that he left the village for years and never even once come back to meet her or their daughter in all those years despite having teleportation abilities.

 

[Made in Heaven]

And they've never kissed.

Sakura doesn't know the meaning behind it? Have you even read the manga? Your hate blinders gotta go asap!

So now your saying that he loves her at a capacity? I mean 5 minutes ago you were alluding to Sasuke not caring an ounce for Sakura but now that I owned you with a concrete argument you gotta different approach...

Also.. provide proof that they didn't kiss? Did Sakura they didn't or did she he gave her something better then a kiss?

Naruhina faps...

 

[Darth AniCetuS]

When Itachi use to poke Sasuke's it was cool a sign of his brotherly love.
When Sasuke poked his daughter's head, that was also cool as a father.

When Sasuke poked Sakura's head, it was smart. Sasuke handled her.

Yeah, Sasuke cares for her about as much as he does for any other Konoha shinobi. There's not an once of romantic love there. The decade long absence, hesitance to kiss, or even freaking embrace her after so long, and Kishimoto's own words prove so.

They have never kissed. Stop reaching.

Sakura reaction in Gaiden CHP 10 confirms they've never kissed. Look how disappointed she looks then tries to play it off. Some marriage.

SS faps are supposedly so good at reading emotions on people's faces when they pull up BS scans of Sasuke eyeing Sakura or other nonsense like that (just look at that try-hard scan spam post by Rasta), but they want to ignore Sakura's very obvious saddened look when Salad brings up if they've ever kissed, w/ the ending of Gaiden even showing Sasuke has rejected Sakura's advances MULTIPLE times.

:axedance:

In this case it does, Sarada asked Sakura to vindicate if they've ever closely acquainted or familiar with each on a depth level of fondness or tenderness. And we know for a fact that it's sasukes ultimate sign of affection but you know that and you know Sakura knew it as well, Stevie Wonder can see the context...

Yeah, Sasuke cares for her about as much as he does for any other Konoha shinobi.

Nope and this isn't factual true if we applied this to his character entirely through out his his manga but more then that has Sasuke even interacted or had enough dialogue with "every other shinobi" in the village? This part of your reply screams desperation to be right about something being that I've soloed your previous post with facts.

There's not an once of romantic love there

I won't disagree with this, nothing leads me to believe that their genuine romance between them. Mostly because of the detachment of their relationship but more so because Sasuke is closed off emotionally. If anything Sasuke & Sakura are very fond of eachother but the connection is there..

The decade long absence, hesitance to kiss, or even freaking embrace her after so long, and Kishimoto's own words prove so.

Bad writing I agree and cannot disagree.

They have never kissed. Stop reaching.

You reaching just like I am, the manga never confirmed or denied anything. It's a cheeky cliffhanger...

Naruto and Sasuke tried to kill each other all the time and I don't see anyone saying they have an abusive friendship.

These NaruHina faps (Lady Byakugan) are just as too biased. You know who trapped a fap when their only response to a manga scan is their opinion..

lmao that's all I care to hear. The two arne't in love, plain and simple.

I didn't say that, it isn't expressed in a conventional way. It's expressed through their fondness and connection. It's a lack of intelligence to for anyone not to see it that way.. I had fun countering your arguments..
