I think they're probably referring to TakL who translated it differently. But both Ramen and 咲耶姫 personally sent me messages and translation examples a while back discrediting this.
Yes but so is TakL, hence the conflict of opinion.
According to 咲耶 Kishi went out of his way to correct some other critic or something like that.
Well I think she explained to you that this is not the case .
Don't worry my friend, once I will have send you Kishimoto's interview, you will understand why he's always so confusing, when I read it, I laugh so hard about that part.
And once again, thank you for being almost the only one reacting to my very long post. At least I know I didn't do it for nothing.
I think the critic's descriptions are right, it's not just some fan's opinion. He did some deep analysis about the manga, he's a professional, he knows what he's saying. And to me the fact that Kishimoto allowed the KB's release proves that he agree with what is said in it. Otherwise,he wouldn't have allowed it or he would have explain the meaning of the scene the critic didn't understand to him, because now, people would believe a false thing, the book isn't supposed to give you a random guy's opinion, but it's supposed to tell you the meaning of the scenes. Why would one scene of the KB be misinterpreted while all the others would be correct?
That's so sad, I guess Takl want to say what SS fans want to hear, so it doesn't create a big boom on NF.
I know what you mean, it's like sometimes in the past, I happened to wonder why there was so many NH/SS fans while NS was supposed to happen. I had my doubts about the end pairing because of the amount of fans.
I don't think I have said that. Maybe you misunderstood something? Or maybe I'm the one not understanding what you mean here? (sorry english is not my first language)
Sasuke is the opposition of Naruto in the manga. The feeling they feel for each other is altering between rejection and closeness. Ever since Naruto is pursuing Sasuke, he became a hero, but Sasuke is still considered as a “star”. It says that even if it is a male character he’s treated as a heroine lol, (I don’t get it neither) Anyway, let’s continue the lovey dovey NaruSasu. The intense affection Naruto feels for Sasuke is between friendship and fraternal love. It says that it’s a deep tenderness, but it also says it’s not a romantic feeling (lol it’s so ambiguous that you have to precise it) that is connect to any kind of deep emotion. The rest of the paragraph is talking about Sasuke’s denial of his feelings of friendship toward Naruto.
Also, about 675, I would say, if you're really biased and want to interpret this scene in your favor, it is possible, since Kakashi dooesn't say "You don't love him anymore! You're feelings have so changed that you now doesn't feel anything romantic anymore for him!" But he doesn't say neither "You love him so much now, back then it was justa crush, but now it's pure love!" But one thing is sure, it's that one of these 2 super exaggerated parodies is more accurate to the real one. Guess which one? But seriously, it's not even a matter of words, it's the way he's saying it, the context and the way he ends up his speech that tells me we are becoming closer to SS death (it is not already lol).
Kishi approves a lot of things that doesn't mean that he's agreeing with them The Naruto Games for example but I see what you mean .
Also the confession can be deemed "false" bc that was not her original intent but Naruto's safety that doesn't mean that when she said to Naruto that she loves him was false again just look at her facial expression when she hugs him and is about to say "Naruto from the bottom of my heart I......." so many miss this and Like you once said "Sakura was being honest by saying she loves Naruto but no conscious of being honest" the fact that it was interrupted when she was about to say it is Kishimoto telling you that this was not the right time and this is gonna be brought back latter .
Btw that NaruSasu thing totally made me .
As for 675 its pretty much clear what Kakashi was saying :
First you are not labeled as a "kind girl" and that its you "duty" to save the person you love if you love him then you do it because of that not because you are "kind" and its your "duty" this is what destroys SS completely and their ridiculous interpretation.
Second Kakashi speaks about the change of her feelings of love they were romantic then now its different its nakama / comrade / friendship love there is no crush love this is ridiculous only in SS twisted minds this can exist and not to mention how they are contradicting themselves .
Third Kakashi says "even if he's an enemy who tried to kill you , you still have feelings for him " which means bc of that she shouldn't have them let alone still "love" him but bc of that she's a "kind girl" Kakashi in here is not prizing her for still loving him romantically again this is ridiculous and it makes no sense whatsoever he's prizing her for being compassionate after all of that this is the context the change of her feelings and her compassion after all that has happened but leave it to SS to twist everything like always .
I almost forgot but i would like the Interview as well pretty please .
