What do you guys think the odds of Naruto finding out about the CPR?
You mean the operation itself or Sakura's thoughts while she kept his heart beating?
I think he knows of the former. As for the latter, I think it has the same chances as the bench scene, which IMO, it could be discussed later in the manga.
Night Hawk: Actually, I think peoole like Hinata for quite a different reason. Sure, I won't deny that some may like her chest, but I think most of her fans like something else...
To me, one of the common traits some SS/NH fans have is that they support their pairing because they like the fact of one person being acknowledged and accepted by the other. In a world where negativity can hurt one's self-esteem, people look for approval, acceptance and identity. Hence why we admire heroes and characters who have qualities that we want. Now, here's something intetesting:
This is just an opinion, of course, but SS can be compared to the girl who falls for the cool guy/bad guy and wants to be recognized by said guy. We could go even further and add that they hope to make said guy change when they fall for her. And of course, it could also make some kind of symbolic social status (since, as we know, many girls likes Sasuke after all).But anyway, I feellike that sets the base for SS. Of course, not all SS fans think like this, but some of their comments make me think that this is the base for their shipping.
As for NH, this one I feel like is more common than we believe it to be. Someone with a low self-esteem looks for acceptance of someone they consider to have qualities that they would like to have. And so, in the hooes that someone recognizes their beauty, they develop an infatuation for said person. That desire to be loved without working on self-respect ia common among many people. Is not that they don't want to work on self-respect, but more like they believe this will actually help to their self-respect. This is why I believe si many people like Hinata, because they find it cute how she tries her hardest to be noticed by Naruto, even at the cost of self-improvement.
I can't blame the fans. Many factors in the world have contributed to making people believe that these type of relationships are the ideal ones. But anyway, I rambked for too long XD
Point is, I feel like people like NaruHina for personal admiration and identification rather than manga evidence and logical explanation.
