First off let's start with wrong translation:
Kishimoto never said that Hinata would make a better heroine, that's WIKI'S wrong translation. He saiid that it's fans who make Hinata into Heroine.
"People told me that Hinata would make a better heroine" he respond "I think Sakura is a good heroine and have the feeling of the heroine inside of her you say Hinata Hinata but I say it's not Hinata and from now on I will draw Sakura with more heroine image".
About fake confession:
"On the contrary…. I felt like depicting an honest girl, with a surprisingly stubborn impression."-Masashi Kishimoto. (I guess this proves that people deliberately try to search for an excuses to hate Sakura,no?
Now current chapter situation
Let’s not forget that Sakura, a 16 year old girl, managed to have a powerful S-LEVEL technique and god knows what more because her Seal can be 'released', without being part of a super powerful clan with pre-existing powers, which is admirable.
She’s been healing people the entire war, let alone storing chakra for her seal. Sakura never had any special abilities and like Rock Lee she worked hard to become strong.
Most Hilarious comment about Sakura "She's useless", well what if I told you that she is the female character that did the most in this series?
Sakura has done many good things, let's start from part 1:
1) Sakura was protecting Tazuna without getting scared while Naruto froze.
2) She was willing to give up on exam for Naruto's sake so that he wouldn't be forever stuck as genin. She said this to herself "Always acting like a fool who only knows one thing… Hokage, Hokage. I'm sorry Naruto… that impossible dream of yours… I don't want to see it crushed!" basically Sakura was the first person to support Naruto's dream.
3) While Naruto and Sasuke were unconsious Sakura proctected them both, even as far as going to cut her hair by showing that she isn't obsessed with appearence.
4) Sakura protected Sasuke from Gaara's attacks, risking her life to put herself between him and danger. Gaara used his sand to immobilise her, and as the sand slowly suffocated Sakura, Naruto fought to defeat Gaara using Sakura as inspiration to not give up, and save her.
5) Sakura realized that telling Naruto to save Sasuke for her was selfish, to make up for that she replied that, next time, they would retrieve Sasuke together, and that she would be there to help HIM from now on. Determined to never be useless again and to save Sasuke and help Naruto, Sakura then asked to become Tsunade's apprentice, a request which Tsunade happily accepted.
6) Sakura was the only one among the Genin and a few other ninja's to be able to release the Genjutsu on herself and others.
7) Sakura gave Naruto the advice that he needed to be able to walk up the trees.
8) Sakura threw the kunai that kept Naruto from falling in the Forest of Death.
9) In Sasuke's databook it is said that the one that filled his lonely existence was Sakura. (some claim that databook's are false,NO! They're CANNON it's like an encyclopedia for Naruto series and it is written by no one else than author humself, naruto.wiki writes most of info about characters from databook)
10) Jumps in and risks her life for Naruto who could've ended beheaded by Zabuza's sword if not for her.
(Let's remember that in part 1 she took no training and had NO CLAN ABILITIES)
Part 2:
1) Sakura saved Kankuro's life and easily created an antidote, which even best sand med-nins would never be able to make.
2) Sakura faces Sasori together with Chiyo, Sakura shows us her incredible regenaration, immunity to poisons, strenght,evasion and tactics. Together they defeat Sasori, Chiyo states that Sakura will surprass Tsunade.
3) Sakura heals Naruto after fight with Orochimaru.
4) Sakura found out about Sasuke's and Orochimaru's hideout.
5) Sakura told Naruto very determinedly that tears weren't going to bring Sasuke back.
6) In Hidan and Kakuzu arc: she healed the damage to Naruto's arm from the use of his new technique. Because this made it difficult for him to eat, she offered to feed him.
7) Sakura tried to comfort both Naruto and Tsunade. When Naruto blamed Tsunade for the death of Jiraiya, Sakura scolded him. She was then shocked to hear Naruto declare that he would get his revenge. She later tried to help decipher Jiraiya's dying message to find out more about the Akatsuki leader, Pain, but was interrupted by Pain's attack on the village. After saving some villagers and killing Pain's Giant Centipede, Sakura went to the Konoha hospital, where she was quickly asked to lead the medical front defending the building and healing what injuries she could, impressing Chōji through her leadership and skills.
8) Saves Hinata's life.
9) Protects Karin from being killed by Sasuke and heals her afterwards.
10) In war Sakura was healing many wounded people.
11) Sakura defeats Zetsu who was pretending to be 'Neji' After being punched the transformation technique wears off and the White Zetsu clone resumes him original appearance. Sakura then interrogates the Zetsu about how he was able to get onto the compound undetected. Together with this information and a report Yamato had compiled on Zetsu, she pieces together the Zetsu's abilities and then leaves the clone in the hands of two shinobi to inform headquarters of this latest discovery.
12) After being informed by Inoichi from HQ that Naruto and B were fighting the "masked Madara", Sakura and the rest of the Konoha 11 rush to his aid. As she runs, she thinks to herself that Naruto always got left with insurmountable tasks but this time would be different as not only her, but everyone would be there fighting alongside each other this time.
13) When Naruto was caught by Itachi's genjutsu Sakura helped him by touching his body and inserting her chakra to him to stop the flow.
14) Sakura was the first one to realize how Tobi's power's works.
15) Sakura and Naruto were people who made Sai want to understand Bond's/Feelings. Sakura was the first one that started to explain to Sai what Bonds are.
16) At war Sakura was the one to heal Kakashi's wounds.
17) Healed Naruto's wounds and helped him replenish his chakra.
18) With one hit she made enough destruction to kill ALOT of Juubi's clones.
19) Was storing up Chakra for 3 years to create a Hyakugou sealing, which means in fight with Sasori she used only half of her chakra.
20) Gave courage to whole alliance.
Quotes from manga about Sakura:
"Looks like the best at controlling chakra right now.. is Sakura...... Wow not only does she know a lot about chakra, but her control and stamina are quite good. " -Kakashi
"So... this is the way of the shinobi... It's too harsh..." -Tazuna watching Sakura trying to follow shinobi saying #25.
"Sakura... you must have noticed first right? Your analytical ability and genjutsu know-how... is the most improved on our team." -Sasuke
"The ability to gather chakra from every part of the body and then using it with great timing. In just that, she's above Sasuke. Well, in Sakura's case, from the beginning... she was always great at the control of chakra." -Kakashi
"That's not even it... Sakura is the same as Naruto... her inability to accept defeat is beyond the average person.." -Kakashi
"Pft... Sakura's hiding her feelings again..." -Ino
"Sakura! It was worth teaching you genjutsu during the genin survival training... as I thought, you have a talent for genjutsu..." -Kakashi
"! ... She held her ground against Gaara... even in his current state..." -Temari
"Haruno Sakura... I've heard from Kakashi that you're intelligent and that you have a strong spirit." -Tsunade
"That beauty and strength... it would seem as though you've raised another Tsunade, no?" -Jiraiya
"Wha... What insane power! You didn't just teach Sakura medical ninjutsu did you...?" -Kakashi
"She builds up the maximum amount of chakra in her fist, then releases it in an instant... without precise chakra control, she couldn't do that. It's a real feat. Medical ninjutsu plus amazing strength... no, that's not all. Because Sakura was originally a genjutsu type... she may become an even better ninja than the fifth..." -Kakashi
"S-Sakura-chan... you're great!" -Naruto after she heals Kankurou
"This is some girl... in this small amount of time, she's already beginning to see through Sasori's attack pattern, so that even without my assistance she can do it... A girl like this... Tsunade... you have a good apprentice indeed." -Chiyo
"Her strength, evasion, and healing wounds... that has definitely used up a lot of chakra... she should already be at her limit... but..." -Chiyo
"When mixing an antidote, not even a hairline mistake is allowed... even I who made the poison would need a detailed recipe of the mixture proportions..." - Sasori
"Hmph... I'll acknowledge that you're a brat to be reckoned with... that you took out Sandaime Kazekage... at this point against you another "Human Puppet" would be useless..." -Sasori
"Oho... worrying about others even with an injury like this? What a girl. While the sword is still in her, she's stopping the bleeding and healing herself... what a skillful one." -Sasori
"Sakura... next time instead of risking your life for a dying old woman, I want you to protect those most important to you.. you are... a lot like me... After all, a woman with a gallant spirit matching any man's is a rarity indeed... Surely you'll become a kunoichi even greater than your master..." -Chiyo
"That you can use a fake smile like that... I'll remember it." -Sai
"Sakura isn't stupid. And she's not so much of a child as to not understand other people's circumstances." -Sai
"She smiled as she said she'd work with everyone else. But this time I was able to tell it was a fake smile. . . " -Sai
"You're the enemy... I don't want to sympathize with you... so .. so don't... Don't cry like that in front of me...! ... Damn it..." -Karin Uzumaki
"This girl caught me........ She's pretty sharp..." - White Zetsu
"This girl reminds me a bit of Kushina."-Namikaze Minato
"This girl, she might be even better than Tsunade!" -Hashirama Senju the First Hokage, God of Shinobi.
How is Sakura's personality described?:
Sakura has shown to be strong-willed and determined, not one to lose or give up in a fight easily most prominently seen during her fight with Sasori where despite being told to run by Chiyo, she stayed and fought. Sakura is naturally hot-headed along with being easily impulsive and stubborn, but most of the time, she is relatively kind, cheerful, and rational.
So when you start bashing Sakura, remember how immature and stupid you look. For some magical reason half+ of Sakura haters are NH fans, talk about double standarts.
By this post I have not intended to offend anyone, if you feel so I'm sorry. Please don't respond with stupid comments which would only imply that you have not even bothered to read this, thanks. *_*
