Why kishimoto not giving that much screen time to Sasuke in the movie?

[Mikasa Hagaromo]

First Sarada is Karin's child. Now this shit? God.
Doesn't matter how you try to twist the end.
They are married.

Even Kishi's assistant answered



“there is no hidden side or hidden secret”

All that confirms is that Sakura is Sarada's mother.

The asst said NOTING about marriage.

And them being unmarried wouldn't be unheard of in shonen.

Vegeta and Bulma weren't married when they conceived Trunks.

Gin and Gon's mom weren't married when they conceived Gon.

And I think I read Luffy's parents weren't married either (I haven't gotten to the arcs where they expand more on his background yet though.)

Furthermore, we all saw that recent Kishi interview on wht Sasuke is doing on his travels. He blatantly said Sasuke can't live in the village as normal bc of his sins. Dude refuses to forgive himself even though everyone else has forgiven him.

He's going to be a traveler of sorts forever. He'll probably check in for Sarada's birthdays and to teach her the fireball jutsu and train her for the chunin exam though.

NH is the most unpopular hetero couple in Japan.
SasuSaku is the most popular Hetero couple.
NaruSaku is the second most popular Hetero couple

NaruSaku, SasuSaku and even Neji and Hinata are miles above NaruHina.

Hmmm...this seems off. How RECENT are these polls. I thought NaruHina took the lead after the Pein arc and Hinata surpassed Sakura in popularity *goes to google*

Why would Sasuke be a part of something that is called The Last? Naruto is the last one in everything.

 

[Kakooli]

Why would Sasuke be a part of something that is called The Last? Naruto is the last one in everything.

699 is effectively the end of part 2 and Sasuke reduced Naruto to the role of sidekick/supporting character/fodder in his own manga in that chapter.

This is after Pein arc.

Agree....although I hate Sakura and think SasuSaku is a joke, I was holding out hope that the movie would show something tht made this pairing halfway respectable.

Oh well. I shall continue to mock this pairing. LOL

I'm convinced now more than ever that they never married and Sarada was conceived in a singular night of passion on one of Sasuke's visits to the vilage. Thn he bounced. LOL. No love confession. No marriage. Just Sakura jumping at a chance to get that Uchiha D out of desperation.

Actually, this is the only reasonable explanation. He is close to the daughter, but nothing states that he loves Sakura.

Are people really still going on about Sasuke and Sakura having a mutual moment in the manga while Naruto and Hinata didnt? I'd think it'd be obvious that Kishimoto left it out because he knew there was going to be an almost 2 hour movie explicitly for their moments. If the movie didn't exist, he'd probably just have them do a conversation after Neji funeral or some shit like that.

Some slow minds will not understand this aspect.

 

[Ansatsuken]

Please invest the $25 per year or 99 cents per issue for VIZ.

Sasuke said something along the lines of "even if you accept me, what about this others?"

This shit doesn't even make sense. You ppl use ZERO critical thinking when reading these panels. It's not SASUKE who needs to accept the others, it's the others who need to accept him.

Why does this even need to be said? You mean to tell me you didn't pause for a second when you read this and said, "hmm?"

madara has use that word before infront of Hasirama

No love for SK :|

 

[Icelerate]

Maybe because the ones who are making the movie are a bunch of Sasuke haters like a large amount of NB is.

 

[salsalover64]

What do you want to see with Sasuke? He said in 699 he was going to travel the world. What, you want 20 minutes of Sasuke walking around looking at trees? You sound like an upset Sasuke fanboy.

The only Sasuke and Itachi OVA I know of is the Sunny-side up Battle, with Itachi cooking eggs for Sasuke. I really hope you didn't think that was supposed to be taken seriously...

Yes...we want to watch sasuke walk around and look at trees. In fact they should create another movie called "Naruto: Sasuke's great tree adventure".

 

[Joseph Gomes]

Sasuke is probably the best character in Naruto. Little bit emo but we can justify his craziness. Sasuke is too cool for stupid love movies

 

[Xlad]

Nah, I think it's best if he doesn't get too involved with this whole film. Lol

No love for SK :|

Karin is the most unpopular female character in the manga and her couple SK is the same.

Kishimoto even bothered to give any resolution to Karin or wasted any manga panel in 699 and 700 to show Karin and her destiny.
