I have a question since it's been 7 years... are you over the ending yet?
Haha...Nope. Naruto and NaruSaku was a pretty huge investment in my life. Both financially and emotionally. I still remember how I felt the day the final chapter came out and how much chaos was going on here. How desperately everyone wanted 'The Last' to clear up that ending and how much everyone wanted it to be infinite tsukiyomi.
It's been almost 10 years. That window of opportunity is gone and it wouldn't pull people back if they did it now.
In summary: Sakura defeats an Akatsuki member and is the series staple white mage = Useless
Hinata defeats random Juubi fodder in a single panel and literally accomplishes nothing else of value: OMFG TEH BEST FEMALE CHARACTER EVER EVER!!!
Sakura killed ten Juubi in one punch and everyone was too busy wetting themselves over how their goddess managed to kill one...and then proceeded to trip over a rock and fall flat on her face.
There's the NH (as in NejiHina... which was probably the intended ship) doujinshi called Terrace where that happens:
But naw it was better and more beautiful for Hinata to win while Sakura is alone forever ofc. She did hit Naruto those 3 times.
I remember seeing this doujinshi back in the day. I really hoped it would happen. But heaven forbid we give Hinata any real character development. That would ruin everything.
