It would appear that we are reading very differently from this chapter.

[ioria]

Everyone would get disappointed if somebody who once played an important role in our past shows no symphathy at all.

I fail to see the issue here.

[Nate River]

Only three things to note for me:

I would think this should lay to rest the disagreement over the last chapter. I would bee odd indeed to have Kakashi talk about her love reaching a whole new level only to do this the very next week. If he was looking to troll the fandom or her character, but that's not his style.

Second, I'm in wait and see mode about what she did. I'm hoping there is more to her role in the battle otherwise, I won't be nearly as impressed as everyone. To get a power up and do that? I hope that's not all there is to it. Her suprassing Tsunade strikes me as telling not showing given that he gives us a panel show Tsunade using the same jutsu. With Naruto and Sasuke it's obvious. With Sakura, it just keeps getting stated.

Third, teamwork sucked all the way around. I bet they get a lecture or something next week. What else is Sharinganless Kakashi going to do?

[TouKen4Life3g]

To be fair, Kakashi is even shocked that this stuff is happening. 4 shadows now, small meteorites, and he pretty much said, "Screw fighting. I want to do my plan now!" So pretty much it's no longer about fighting. It's about stopping, which seems to he too late. You made it sound like if they're still in part 1 and meet kid Buu, they will know what to do.

What do you mean?
Oh to answer your last question, yes it paralyze her to the point her hand is shaking when she try to hit madara. Tsunade hit by susanoo sword this one is different.
Madara lv 300
Narusasu lv 200
Sakura lv 80
Kakashi lv 75

Interesting. Thanks. At least we know she's strong. The thing now is that Madara decided to do his plan rather than keep fighting and provided many distractions, so he can do it with no worries.

The way I see it, there is parallelism in the concern that Naruto showed her with the lack of concern that Sasuke showed her. Just as there was a parallel between on Hinata's positive feelings towards Naruto and Sakura's negative feelings towards Sasuke during the fodder ninja love letter incident.

 

Naruto was the one calling her name in panic while Sasuke was willing to slice right through her to get to the enemy. Sasuke clearly doesn't value her life and Sakura is beginning to see that more and more now. On the other hand, she knows that Naruto worries for her, "Don't worry, Naruto..." and it's saddening for her because she sees that Sasuke doesn't care like Naruto does.

 

It's a painful reality for her and it could possibly bring up the question of: "Why did I ever love someone like him?" I think Kishimoto is going about this in a logical way. It takes time for someone to get over their first love. Trust me, I'm going through something similar. Now that Sakura is really seeing what she never saw before, it will help in making her realize that Sasuke is not the one that she should love. If she sees how Naruto is in comparison, it will help to draw her more towards him than Sasuke.

 

Love is a complicated thing. It makes you do crazy things as well. After-all, this ordeal that Sakura is going through is what makes her human. Kishimoto stated that she is the most realistic person in this manga and after seeing the turmoil that Sakura goes through with her love for Sasuke, I really believe it.

He doesn't have chakra either. I think he's there
1.) to tell the readers what's going on with the battle
2.) tell the readers what they should be thinking in regards to the team members
3.) let the readers know how strong team seven have become by having Kakashi unable to follow them

[FireFox]

Ok i will put this nicely since most think that she was thinking about Sasuke's feelings for her "

 

1.Page 4/5 what do we see ? We see Madara saying that they should also consider their 'teamwork" dying with them , after that what is Sakura thinking ? She first focuses on Madara's Rinengan and the shift her focus to both Naruto and Sasuke and thinks about T7 and how is she's gonna fight with them .

 

2. Page 6 After that she looks determined and She says that she will create an opening for the two of them to attack and says that she will BACK NO MORE!

 

3. Page 8 We see both Naruto and Sasuke heading toward her with Sasuke not caring about teamwork and a about to slice her in half (that's not "teamwork" basically Sasuke destroys it )

 

4. Page 9 We Sakura saddened by the fact that Sasuke doesn't care about T7 working together because he didn't support her like teammates comrades should not because she still "loves" him .

 

The whole context of this is T7 working together but ultimately fails because there was no teamwork from Sasuke's side imo .

Also i agree with @tricksie point that her words are basically a red herring .

I'd only quibble with point 3 because they show this at one of his weakest physical moments. It doesn't mean much that he can't follow in his current condition.

I think next volume will truly become madara end, since we always say next volume is the last volume of this arc since last year lol.

I agree that sakura is strong. She just not as strong as her two teammate.

[TouKen4Life3g]

Well they supposed to work together and protect each other and what not. Sasuke is like "..." while Naruto reacted the way any partner/comrade/friend would. If you have one member that shows no concern, that's not good in a team. Again, the best example to compare is his time in Killer Bee's fight and now. Do it side-by-side and you can easily tell. Lastly, 632 gave her impression that Team 7 is back, even though her trust is being damaged. Now, she knows that he doesn't care about Team 7 at all. Complete different from Sasuke who takes away from Orochimaru when he put them in danger.

I know unless she eats the fruit. Lol.

I guess that makes sense. I got the impression that he was the odd one out since Naruto and Sasuke recovered from death, and Sakura was supposed to be suffering from chakra exhaustion. He seems to be the only one who can't recover from his physical weakened condition.

[LadyofHubris]

Sakura needs to eat the fruit. 

[FireFox]

You see this is one of the reasons I call Team 7 Team Dysfunctional. Sakura takes charge tells Naruto and Sasuke to attack, and of course Naruto and Sasuke are like this:

 

The three of them cannot really work together correctly.

That's because Sasuke is the third wheel in here   . But seriously The New T7 and Taka has a better teamwork then this three together it just goes to show you that Sasuke just doesn't fit with them no matter how powerful he might be lol.

That's because Sakura felt to be surrounded by Madara's eyes. On page 3 of this chapter, first Madara takes a look at this right side and there's Sasuke. Then his gaze moves to the center and he sees Naruto, and finally turns his gaze to his left side where there's Sakura. Sakura notices this and, mabybe for her safety and in order to not make thins worse for his mates by stading at attention, she moves back. I think that Mangapanda is more accurate here, when Kakashi thinks "I can't blame here, with that eye power..."
What's one of the rules when you face the enemy in battle? Gunning down, if there're some, medical ninjas earlier. Sakura just thought that Madara would attack her first, since his finale look has been placed on herself. And, instead of waiting the first madara's move towards her, he preferred to launch a desperate counter-attack. Not exactly a perfect scheme of teamwork but I honestly understand her pov. For this reason she activated her Byakugou technique (whose uses this are in fact immortal) and used herself as a decoy, so that it can distract Madara from Naruto and Sasuke.

[rocci]

I will say it again, sai is the side kick character sasuke cann't become.
Narusasu is too big for team seven.
