It was lame, i have nothing against nakama power but they should had break the barrier with their powers not Naruto, Naruto acknowledged everyone has strong but at every turn he feels the need to give them powerup and babysit them, glady he's not babysitting Sakura here, the only thing i see here is that he deeply acknowledges that Sakura is strong different than he did with Hinata, called her strong but when she showed up alongside Neji and her father he suddenly got surprised why she was standing among them.
Yeah, I guess that's why we were glad Sakura was out of it and it's not even about pairing.
Hey, I am about to open a new topic in this section soon. It's something that I have gathered after researching. It's rather interesting and had my eyes open wide now. It's ironic yet it must be addressed.
