Some time ago I saw bleach on first arch and liked the start, about couples was really confusing because Ichigo is somewhat indifferent to his love life, and both Rukia and Orihime have development and interaction, I don't really know what paring support, both have things that I like and are funny, maybe my personality is more on Rukia in her fight style and feel like, but  I think that paring theme confusing me in bleach, I wanted to keep watching bleach but when I finished the first arc bored me a lot and was forcing view in it, when compared to the development and complexity of the characters of Naruto makes me don't want to see more of bleach.

Do you think my following rant could explain the reason of Kishi’s interview about Sakura’s feelings and the reason why this confession was still false? So here is my thought about it.

 

I was wondering, since Pepsi is often bringing this interview on the matter, could it be possible that Sakura’s confession was false back then, not meaning that she didn’t love Naruto, but that she didn’t think it when she was saying  “I love you” to Naruto. Now, saying that she didn’t thought it at the time she was saying it would be considered as lying, while Kishimoto clearly stated “I felt like depicting an honest girl”. But what if he had said such a thing because he knows Sakura loves Naruto, but when she said it herself at the Iron Land, she was not yet conscious about it. Thus explaining why Kishimoto said in the same interview “Naruto is close but as expect… It’s Sasuke.”

 

So all in all, my thought is that Sakura was honest by saying she loves Naruto but not conscious of being honest, thus making a false confession on her part, since she didn’t believed what she said, but it doesn’t degrades her feelings for Naruto, it doesn’t mean she doesn’t love him. It just means she doesn’t know yet that her confession was true. So I think that in his interview, Kishi’s word weren’t directed towards the story plot itself when he said he was depicting an honest girl, but towards the feelings of this girl. Don’t know if this statement is clear enough, it’s kinda confusing to write it.

 

But one thing is sure, it’s that this confession was not meant to just being played and then, not being brought up later on. There was a purpose to this love confession. If he wanted it, the author could have not do this. The confession was not necessary, to the plot, Sakura could have just said to Naruto that she wanted him to go back to the village, but she choose to say that she loved Naruto and not Sasuke anymore, rather it’s true or false doesn’t change the fact that it’s a crucial point in her character development and that it can’t be let out without a proper conclusion to this confusing scene. Kishi must be aware of the mess he created in the Naruto fandom, not only in the pairing fandom, but all the fandom. Nobody understands what was up with this confession, and I’m sure it’s intentional, it’s because it will surely get resolved later on.

 

So if someone took the time to read that little rant, could you give me your impression on it? What do you agree with? What don’t you agree with? What could be possible concerning this confession and what couldn’t be possible in your opinion?

So ichiruki already canon or not? Can someone give me the answer since I don't really follow bleach.
Bleach, ft, and onepiece are the type that don't have definite pairing in the end.

Bleach is gonna be open-ended

Fairy Tail is gonna be NaLu

One Piece is going to be open-ended

The suppose sexual tension and opposites attract seems to be one of the famous answers I've heard. 
 
I used to ship Ichihim pretty hard, but not anymore. I re-read bleach again and realized that imo he's better off being alone lol.
 
I ship Robin and starfire a little bit, but my fav paring of that show will always be Robin and Raven xD.

 
I actually loved ALL TT characters. I didn't mind Raven and Robin at all.

 Bleach: No

FT: The author confirmed the pairings already.

I used to watch one piece but it's sooooooo LONG. But if I had to ship anybody it would be Nami and Luffy.

Thank you!

As little girl I remember watching Samurai X. I never knew about shippings or anything then. I was barely in high school. But I remember hoping Kenchi and Karou got together and they did. -cries- They even had a son.

SakuraxSyaoran, Ichihime, Kataang, and RobinxStarfire?!

 

The feels.

 

 

Anyway, the confession is extremely confusing. It can be taken both ways, however I side with she doesn't consciously know she loves Naruto, so to herself she felt like she was lying when she's not. Even if people choose not to believe she loved Naruto at the time, there were signs she liked him. Like when she found out Hinata loved Naruto, she had that same sad look Naruto had when she was hugging Sasuke in part one. That's why it's obvious to those around her everyday to see that she loves Naruto, because she displays it in actions not words.

 

I also think her feelings will be concluded during the N/S fight. She's already witnessed Naruto on the brink of death, so him fighting against another villain won't mean much. However, Naruto fighting with Sasuke will really bring forth her emotions and she will realize who it is she truly loves.

I agree with it 100% .

[Gojira]

I'm not entirely sure, would it still count as her being honest if she thought she was lying?

[咲耶姫]

Her heart would be honest but her mind wouldn't be honest, since her mind wouldn't be aware of what her heart truly feels. 

 

But as I said, I'm sure your question about this matter will soon be answered, just wait for the end of the manga. Again, it's impossible for the subject to not be brought up later on. It's too confusing for everyone. 

[redrose3443]

Yeah, I do.

[Sakura~]

One of the reasons i like NS is because it has twist in it which makes it interesting and unpredictable imo. It would be boring is Sakura loved Naruto from the start. I won't like NS as muchh as I do now.So no I don't mind that Sakura was in love with Sasuke. What bothers me is that she still loves him after all he's done. I really can't wait for her to move away from him. I'm postive that's happening very soon.

It doesn't really matter to me how NS becomes canon I just hope that Kishi doesn't disappoint me, as long as there's some sufficient NS family interaction i'll be happy, but him delaying the pairing until the very, very end will definitely prove a problem with this, this is part of the reason why I don't like it when pairings aren't settled until the end because you end up missing out on all the interesting things that could happen afterwards.

[tekopi]

Wohoo, having a break at a rural town is great. Is there any new twist happening, probably from another fandom? I hope that I don't miss anything interesting

Anyway, the confession is extremely confusing. It can be taken both ways, however I side with she doesn't consciously know she loves Naruto, so to herself she felt like she was lying when she's not.

It's not confusing, it's confusing when people wants to prove she loves Naruto using that scene, it wasnt a proper confession and the point was never about she loving Naruto or not.
It was just Sakura and her decision of dropping her feelings for Sasuke in favour of Naruto, but Naruto rejected it because she loved Sasuke.
It didnt felt she was lying because she indeed lied she never confronted her feelings for Sasuke and to make matters worse her whole decision was centered on Naruto not her feelings which is why it was a lie.
How could she drop her feelings for Sasuke when just now she noticed he doesnt care about her and everyone else?
Up to that point even knowing that Sasuke joined akatsuki she wanted to believe that he was still the same.

 

Even if people choose not to believe she loved Naruto at the time, there were signs she liked him. Like when she found out Hinata loved Naruto, she had that same sad look Naruto had when she was hugging Sasuke in part one. That's why it's obvious to those around her everyday to see that she loves Naruto, because she displays it in actions not words.

Yes indeed, but those were platonic mostly resolving around Naruto's goals, and jokes moment from Naruto that leads to nowhere, the confession proves that she never took Naruto "seriously" in terms of wanting to be a relationship with him, her reaction towards Sai telling her about Naruto's feelings is pretty much telling.
The part where she finds out about Hinata's feelings, it tells nothing and those aren't similar moment, her face doesnt tell much and doenst lead to any conclusion it literally can be anything even empathy or the fact she was willing to sacrifice her life for Naruto because she loves him, or can even be the fact that she loves a cool guy like Naruto and she loves Sasuke who doesnt care about her.
 

I also think her feelings will be concluded during the N/S fight. She's already witnessed Naruto on the brink of death, so him fighting against another villain won't mean much. However, Naruto fighting with Sasuke will really bring forth her emotions and she will realize who it is she truly loves.

In all respect, i think it's really stupid this whole "Sakura realizing feelings" i mean there were too many moments where it could happen and just now? during Naruto and Sasuke fight?
It sounds like bs to me, sincerely, i know that NS development is being damaged recently and the whole romance subplot is losing appeal.
Can't she just fall in love with Naruto later after he tells her what she thinks about her and make her stop wanting to wanting to be equal towards him and acknowledge that she's a great shinobi.

It's just ridiculous to me that Sakura suddenly fall in love with Naruto when he literally did nothing to her in terms of winning her over?
I mean he didnt give a single compliment to her.

If wasnt Sai and Minato, i would say that Naruto friendzone Hinata and Sakura.

Well, after what happened in Bleach, I guess being alone is the answer. Shame.

Bleach: No, it seems like open-ended is the key. That or just tease before the series end like oh that's cute but it ended, so whatever. Kind of like Soul Eater. That made me a bit sad.

 

Fairy Tail: Pretty obvious. I keep hearing about the author said it out loud, but regardless, it's obvious. Not canon, but will be at the end. Unless nakama rules everything, then no. Lol.

 

One Piece: No, and Oda said the only romance is the adventure. Whatever that means. Either way, it could end open, so yeah.

To me her falling in love later on is even more ridiculous. But it's a matter of opinion and taste. 

 

Moreover, there are signs that proves she already has felings for him, saying otherwise is denying that fact. There is Yamato's statement, Sai's statement, and from her part, there are more subtle hint like the ramen feeding scene, the hug scene, her questionning her feelings while blushing in chapter 13 (confirming not being about admiration or whatever in the databook).

So she so has feelings for him, so why couldn't she realize that thoses feelings are feelings of love?

 

It is more logic for her to realize some feelings she has proved to have previously in the manga, at many occasions, rather than saying she had no feelings before and just happen to fall in love at the very end of the manga. THAT would be killing the romance sub plot. To me, it would be even worst than ending up the pairing with NH (not SS because nothing can be worst than SS). 

 

And while I do agree with you on the fact that she lied during her confession, I however, do think she loved Naruto, but she was not aware of thoses feelings I previously mentionned. But maybe you are dissociating feelings and love. 

[TyranntX]

So much NS.... Its practically Canon now. Even though the most recent chapter doesn't exactly ship towards anything I say that NS chances are better than ever.
