Why is it about Sakura that you dislike the most?

[Kazehime Seirin]

Other than her 'Love' for Sasuke....nothing.

 

[123fire]

I don't dislike her . She's good

 

[JStar King]

omg lol the level of hate in some people for this story book girl is baffling the rage in this one is strong.

If you feel so strongly, you should go break the hands of her creator.

I just hate how she was developed. If I had a manga or a published story of my own, I would never disrespect my female character like Kishi did with Sakura.

 

[Konoha Orange Spark]

discuss. Also, refrain from character bashing.

that she's not a fodder

 

[Livenojutsu]

i dont dislike her now but i used to in part 1 before chunin exams.

 

[Amenotejikara]

She represents everything wrong with kishi.

 

[whiteboy2345]

Her character is pathetic and she settles for nothingness and uselessness, unlike Sasuke.

 

[Akro]

Only people who are jealous of her and losers could hate her.

 

[roark]

she's shallow, dumb, toxic friend, toxic mother, manipulative, envious, obsessed fangirl, despise her parents.
What's there to like her?

 

[Hakke]

8. Sakura was a waste of ink and panel time in Part I.

you have a point here

 

[Hakke]

I don't dislike her , but she was really a waste of ink and panel .

 

[NarutoX28]

People generally have a bias against her, it's really nothing to question about at all. It's one thing to be revolted by her "abhorrent" characteristics, but it's another thing to poor evaluate her skills which is done constantly on this forum. You have idiots claiming that every medical ninja can replicate Sakura's feat of mastering Byakugo.

 

[UnknownJin]

Ever since she made an orphan joke and she is annoying

 

[NarutoX28]

Ever since she made an orphan joke and she is annoying

Yes, she was a d!ck in Part 1, but that stopped being the case in Part 2.

 

[UnknownJin]

Yes, she was a d!ck in Part 1, but that stopped being the case in Part 2.

Still most of the times she is annoying... but sometimes she is alright...

 

[JStar King]

Yes, she was a d!ck in Part 1, but that stopped being the case in Part 2.

Ehh....then she just started to become an emotional mess with the crying, especially when it came to Sasuke. Did she let Naruto get beat up by Choji's future wifey while crying on her knees about Sasuke?

:lol

 

[NarutoX28]

Still most of the times she is annoying... but sometimes she is alright...

Annoying ... I can see that, but being straight-up obnoxious and naïve the way she was in Part 1 is literally absent in Part 2.

 

[Hakke]

come to think of it , I think Kishimoto really destroyed her character in the Five Kage Summit arc

here is why
(believe me it worths reading )

Things that Sucked: The Assassination of Haruno Sakura’s Character by the Author Kishimoto Masashi

let’s try to approach this particular gripe from a different angle than the usual.

Kishimoto: Hey, Sakura!

Sakura: Yes, Kishimoto?

Kishimoto: I’m about to make you relevant again! Just wait for your cue.

Sakura: Yay! I haven’t had a chance to shine in about 200 chapters! Will I get a fight scene?

*Omoi and Karui enter. Omoi jump kicks Sakura in the face*

Karui: Hey! Aren’t you the chick with a crush on that Sasuke guy?! Well, he’s now working with the Akatsuki! Just last week he attacked several Kumo citizens, captured my master, and wore a shirt with a popped collar! Just a head’s up! BTW, what do you see in that guy?!

*Karui and Omoi leave. Sakura cries. Sai enters*.

Sai: Hey, Sakura? You know that romance subplot you’re a part of? Well, you’re really going to hate this.

Sakura: What? Why?

Sai: You’ll see in a moment. But anyway, you realize that Naruto has feelings for you?

Sakura: OMG, I did not realize such a thing despite the fact that my team mate, who I work with almost every day, is not the least bit subtle about his interest in me.

Sai: Also, I’m here to remind you that for someone who promised to work with Naruto to save Sasuke, you’ve been awfully willing to let him shoulder the burden. Seriously, what have you done lately? BTW, it gets worse for your character.

*Sakura cries some more*.

Sakura: Oh God, am I crying again? As if my haters don’t have enough of that to mock me till Doomsday! Tell me it gets better for me throughout this arc!

Sai: …

*Shikamaru enters*.

Shikamaru: Hey, we’ve all decided that since Sasuke has made himself an international issue, we’re all gonna kill him, m’kay? Now listen to my bloated and moronic explanation of how Kumogakure killing Sasuke would set off a cycle of revenge that could be easily rectified if you, Ino, and Naruto had the brains to realize that it would be really, really stupid to attack a Kumo nin for carrying out the law. Oh, and also, Kishimoto’s going to really shit all over your character for the rest of the arc.

*Shikamaru, having made his less than stellar case, leaves*.

Sakura: Oh well, time to recruit some guys to tell Naruto what’s up. All right, Sai aside, I’m going to need a couple of dumbasses to track Sasuke without being smart enough to realize I’m planning something.

*Kiba and Lee enter*.

Kiba, Lee: Did someone say that they needed a couple of dumbasses?

Sakura: Perfect.

*Naruto enters*.

Sakura: Hey, Naruto!

Naruto: Yeah?

Sakura: I need to talk to you. It involves the romance subplot sticking its head out in the most awkward manner possible.

Naruto: Oh. ****.

Sakura: Yeah. Anyway, I like you and don’t have feelings for Sasuke and am totally not hiding anything from you involving the childhood crush I just can’t shut up about so please believe everything I say.

Naruto: Wow, aren’t you giving Meryl Streep a run for her money?

Lee: I am now posing in a manner that matches the reaction of anyone reading this scene.

Sakura: Oh FFS, later!

*Naruto leaves*.

Kiba: Well, that was an awkward scene that totally pissed off a bunch of shippers. So, why are you acting like a stupid *****, exactly?

Sakura: Because this is apparently Kishimoto’s idea of a heroine.

Kiba: That dude has issues. Hey, I’ve tracked Sasuke! And he’s with that masked Akatsuki guy. Let’s take them on despite the fact that one, Sasuke alone managed to outclass you, Naruto, Sai, and Yamato just a few arcs back, and two, that each individual Akatsuki fought so far required either a highly skilled team or elite ninja to beat!

Lee: Good idea!

Sakura: Now!

Sai: Not so fast. I know that Sakura here is planning on gassing us and taking out Sasuke by herself.

Lee: Holyshitwhatthe****?!

Kiba: RAWR! Imma act like a dumbass despite showing a surprising amount of intelligence earlier and give Sakura an opportunity to gas us!

*Sakura gasses them*.

Sakura: Thank God for dumbasses.

Sai: Must…breathe in fumes…instead…of getting out…of range…despite…being a highly skilled…ROOT…operative.

Sakura: Now to deal with Sasuke. I hope Kishimoto wrote me a plan so brilliant that readers will be talking about it for years.

*Sasuke enters. Karin also enters, except she’s lying on the ground covered in her own blood*.

Sakura: Sasuke! Imma join up with joo now! Nothing suspicious about all this!

Sasuke: Has anyone ever told you that you’re a modern day Sarah Bernhardt? In fact, your performance is so bad that it makes me want to put a hole in your head. Eh, why not?

*Sasuke, ever the critic, tries to put a hole in her head. Just as he’s about to make the arc a little less painful to read, Kakashi enters the scene like a boss*

Kakashi: Surprise, mother****er! Damn, I’m awesome.

Karin: Damn, that guy is awesome.

Sakura: Damn, Kakashi is awesome.

Sasuke: Damn, he has a nice ass…I mean, damn you, Konoha *******s! Maniacal laugh!

Kakashi: Sakura, you’re irrelevant to the main plot right now except as walking scenery. Get over there in the kitchen and make me a sandwich. No wait, I’ve had your sandwiches, so no go on that. I’ll make my own damn sandwich. Actually, if you do want to make yourself useful, you can heal this chick here.

Sakura: Damn it, my character’s relevance can’t end here! Not like this! I know! I’ll take out Sasuke myself! That should restore some of my lost dignity.

*Sakura proceeds to act like an actual ****ing ninja and prepares to stab Sasuke from behind*.

Kishimoto: What the? A female character looking cooler than a male in the same scene? Oh no you don’t! Flashback no jutsu!

Sakura: ****! It’s a bunch of flashbacks that don’t really justify the depth of whatever feelings the author says I have for Sasuke.

Sasuke: Wow, this is so sad that I think it best to put you out of your misery right here.

Sakura: Please do. You know what would really suck? If you were about to finish me off and the moment was used to portray me as a damsel in distress that needed rescu-

*Naruto enters the scene with an epic save*.

Naruto: EPIC SAVE!

Sakura: Well, ****.

Naruto: Sakura, I think you should stand back and let the relevant characters speak.

Sakura: Wow, after hundreds of chapters in which it was foreshadowed that I would surpass Tsunade and play an important role in saving Sasuke, I am now expected to relegate myself to cheerleader status. What the hell does that make me?

Kishimoto: A heroine!

Sakura: Go **** yourself.

Kakashi: Hey Sakura, hate to distract you from that conversation you’re having with the author, but we need you to humiliate yourself for the sake of some ill-timed slapstick.

Sakura: And there goes the last shred of my dignity.

I think Kishimoto really have shitted her character in this arc
I really felt pity for her

 

[super michael]

People hate her because she hits Naruto whenever he acts like an idiot, embarrasses her, or is being disrespectful to others. News flash, that's a Shonen troupe. She's written as the gag on the Japanese overprotective housewife/lover/friend. It's for comedy purposes.

Bulma in part 1-Namek Saga was like this.
Chi Chi was like this in all of Dragon Ball part 1.
Keiko was like this in Yu Yu Hakusho
Kagome was like this in Inuyasha
Kaoru was like this in Kenshin.
Nami is like this In One Piece.
Botan was like this in YuYu Hakusho.

I can keep going. She's a gag. Western fans miss this, because it's a culture thing. Take it from someone who studied in Japan while Naruto ran weekly, Sakura isn't nowhere near as hated as she is in Europe and America.

Digimon is shoenen yet doesn't have this issue of having characters like Sakura who hits main every chance she gets by
idiot, embarrasses her, or is being disrespectful to others.

 

[Team7monaa]

Nothing really, she is a strong, competent woman. So what if she was abused relentlessly by Sasuke? Naruto took more than she did but no one is bashing him. It's double standards y'all don't blink an eye when a male charater is dependant on someone but when it's a female it's all bash and attack. She ertainly made the series more enjoyable for me and remians my favourite anime character of all time.
