(Did someone already brought it here?)

 

 

I gonna ctrlc/ctrlv what I saw in a Narusaku group in facebook: 

 

first I saw it: 

 

the photos are actually Tachibana cards from official Naruto Shinobi collection
as said by an SS fan
the part i hated is
Naruto: Hikoboshi
Hinata:Orihime
Sakura:Orihime's prayer
Sasuke:Tsukoyami illusion

as far i know this festival (Tachibana or tanAbata) is union of Hikoboshi and Orihime 

Can anybody translate the quotes
and why the hell second version (not single ones) are NH and SS version?!!!

url for more about the festival:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tanabata

10492148_640059359423479_684250034175380

 

 

but then I saw it:

 

TANABATA CARDS NARUSAKU AND SASUHINA

"Chinese version stated that Orihime Tanabata (Zhinu) bore (actual color for princess) pink or red cloths while Hikoboshi (Niulang) wearing green cloths"

"The Japanese version stated that the Goddess would Tanabata blue or red light (symbolizing she is the goddess of the sky) and Mikeran wore blue and purple (the color of energy). Necklace beads or" nenju "(" accounts of Thought ") used as a Japanese rosary to pray for the gods. every beads represent the" sins of man "or earthly desires.'s largest account is" Magatama "owned Amaterasu (Sun Goddess)."

who is right?? could someone clarify this for me???   :huh:

The SS and NH one is official. If you can call it that way.

Naruto just says "write on this card I will be Hokage". Hinata, I don't know, it's too small to read, Sakura "Sasuke-kun I want to deliver you my feelings", Sasuke "A wish eh... I desire power".

And I woud be surprised if Naruto and Hinata are also Orihime and Hikoboushi, I can understand it for SS, because Orihime and Hikoboushi are lovers separated by Orihime's parents, but NH are not separated. It's not logic. 

Plus as I said, the SS one is like a parody of the legend, while the girl (Sakura) is wishing for her lover (Sasuke), Sasuke just wants power, while the real lover (Hikoboushi) was madly in love with Orihime and wanted to see her, he was crying to see her with their children. You see the cynism in Sasuke's sentence?

Could you give me a bigger picture of Hinata's card?

Anyway, it's just a card game, we don't care, and we already talked about it when Azure Water posted it some days ago. You can check it if you're interested. 

 

EDIT: Found a bigger picture of Hinata: 

3224563253_1_2_WUHWdFaN.png

She says "Naruto-kun... What can I do to make you happy?"

 

EDIT2: Naruto and Hinata represent 七夕Tanabata, here is a represttation picture of the 2 lovers that are dressed like Naruto and Hinata: 

20140702102031545.jpg

 

All in all, I think these cards represent the event of Tanabata more than the story itself. Because of this legend, people are writing a wish on little paper on the 7th of July, like the one Sakura, Hinata, Naruto and Sasuke have in these cards. And the sentence they are telling are the wishes they write on the paper, that’s why Naruto say “write on the cards/paper I will be Hokage!” That’s his wish on this 7th of July, just like Sasuke is wishing for power, Sakura for her feelings to attain Sasuke, and Hinata is wondering what could make Naruto happy because she wants to write a wish that would make him happy.  Though it’s funny for someone so in love with Naruto since so long to not guess that the thing that would make him the happpiest man in the world would be to become Hokage.

They are just dressed as the protagonist of the legend to make a reference to it and because it’s always cool to see manga heroes dressed as ancient Japanese style. I don’t think there is really a connection NH and SS. It’s just Sakura and Hinata’s feelings being overexposed once again. I don't think they are incarnating Orihime and Hikoboushi. They are just their normal themeselves dressed as Orihime and Hikoboushi. And it's more logical to think that way since Naruto and Hinata have never been separated.

 

 

 

Kishi confirmed that Naruto will have a son by the end so we know its not going to be open-ended and in one of the NS events he heavily implied that Naruto will marry Sakura "If my wife married someone like me then Naruto will probably end up marrying..."

 

That’s a false rumor. Kishi never said anything of that sort. He wasn’t even present at any NS event. He would kill his romance subplot if he, on one hand was gone on a pairing event, and on another hand, did kill the romance suspense by blatantly saying that Naruto can marry Sakura if he himself married a girl like Sakura. I think this rumor come from some NS fans saying that Oda said Sakura is like his wife and that Kishi said he was like Naruto. Theses 2 informations are true and valid, I know it, but fans interpretated it as “if Kishi can marry someone like Sakura, so Naruto can do it.” And through the time it became Kishi said” ...” 

 

So at what point do you guys think Sakura decided to stop pursuing a relationship with Sasuke? (Not fall out of love but just stop pursuing him romantically)

 

My guess is probably around the beginning of part 2 everything around that point started to revolve around Team 7 rather than just Sasuke.

 

On a seperate note I'm kicking myself here in frustration because I just realized a friend of a friend of mine was interviewed by Kishi himself (he was a producer on TASM2) If I knew about it ahead of time I could have asked him to ask Kishi about some of the confusing kitten after the pain arc. Off the record ofcourse.

When saving him from Orochimaru and bringing him back to Konoha became more important than being in a relationship with him. So overall, I think she never really decided to stop pursuing him. She doesn’t have the time to think about it, all that matters for her in Part2 is to bring him back, as a member of Team 7.

 

You mean Kishi was interviewed by a friend of you, not the way around, right? I think it wouldn’t have changed anything, his responses are always more confusing, not only for the romance subplot, most recent example being Sasuke who Kishi represented as a “pure” character. 

 

Oddly enough, this would be a good time for Sakura to confirm the world about the dropping the love to us. Maybe, maybe not. I'll wait on the next chapter to see the whole view.

Sadly, I think she won’t confirm anything. We’re meant to assist to some Sakura’s feelings for Sasuke scene. Given that everything is leading to that. First, they have cooperate to leave that dimension, I hardly see Sasuke being as harsh as he was in the recent chapters while he can’t leave the dimension without her. Then, Sakura proved that she was aware of her change of feelings, if Sasuke does something impressive she will “fangirl” over it, by “fangirl” I mean being impressed by him, like Susanoo some chapters ago. And finally, I can easily see her being relieved about not being useless if Sasuke says something, not a big thing, just an approval of her usefulness.

 

The best thing I can expect, is that everything will go normally, that’s to say, just 2 teammates giving their best to cooperate, without Sakura exposing her feelings for Sasuke. That’s what I would like to see. But I think my first option would fit better to the Kishi’s way of writing. He’s always exposing girl’s feelings, especially Sakura (not only for Sasuke) and by feelings I’m not talking about romantic ones, for example being impressed is not a romantic feeling, but this example is less likely than her being relieved of being useful.

@luffyq1
 
You didn't have to dissect my whole comment...


Sorry. I make it habit with posts I find long lol.
 

But why would he not know? I can't point out any straight out "evidence" but he's been a part of Team 7 for a long while, and he's grew a bond with them. He probably knows these two pretty well, because he's spent time with them, he's trained with them, he hung out with them, he went on missions with them. Team 7 become an important part of his life, because he felt that feeling of friendship and companionship, that feeling of caring for people. And from that moment on Team 7 made an impact on him. So knowing that, he would be aware of the love triangle. I'm not saying he acknowledges it.


Why would he not know? Because they're certain things that each member of team 7 didn't know about each other. Naruto didn't realize Sakura's genuine feelings she had for Sasuke till the end of part 1. Sakura didn't realize Naruto's feelings till part 2 where Sai told her. Just because they spent time together and bonded together doesn't mean they know every little thing about each other.

 

Sakura asks out Sasuke, Sasuke doesn't bother - Naruto goes straight to asking Sakura out, and Sakura doesn't bother. Sakura goes to sit next to Sasuke, Naruto ends up glaring at him. Sasuke treats Sakura badly, and Naruto immediately reacts. He's there through all of this. Forget the acknowledgment for a second. He doesn't have to acknowledge or care about them to know that Naruto's feelings for Sakura exist. But of course I can't completely prove this, but I don't see why he wouldn't know.


When Sakura get's rejected from the offer of going out in the form of training, Sasuke walks away and doesn't look back. Naruto then asks her out, but Sasuke is already gone. He's walking away and not looking back at all.

Naruto showing jealousy over Sasuke's popularity isn't something that's new. When she finally sits next to him he's not even so much as acknowledging their presence, not even his glare gets his attention until he directly goes straight to his face. So Naruto defends Sakura from Sasuke, and? Before he even finishes his sentence Sasuke cuts him off and tells him he wants to fight him. Sasuke simply doesn't care at all.

It's funny, all the instances you pointed out is the very reason why they find out late that they have feelings for each other. Sakura ignores Naruto and later finds out through a third party that he loves her. Naruto is just thinking Sakura is another one of the fan girls like in chapter 3, until he realizes she has genuine feelings for him at the end of part 1. So where's Sasuke's panel? It's nowhere to be found because Sasuke doesn't give a crap. Romance means absolutely nothing to him, so there's no point in him acknowledging it.

Ok, I'll forget about the acknowledgement part. But given Sasuke's character, why would he even waste his time thinking about it, especially given his mind set. Kishi could have at least given Sasuke a similar panel to Tsunade when she saw the painful look on Naruto's face in the hospital. But no. There is no such scene like that.

We all read his thoughts and we all view his actions. Sasuke caring or thinking about romance is OOC.

Thank you for your answer! I know that in the end this isn't an important thing, but since I saw two versions of it, I decided It would be better if I discovered which one was right.  :happy:

I see what you mean. Well, I can't really comment any further until the next chapter. What I want to know how the dimension bridge works. I mean is it like multiple portal to one dimension and are they located in one place? Does the bridge lead you to a specific location, or a desired spot such as seeing Sasuke in no time? Where's Naruto if not in snow world? Where are Hokages? And so on and so on. I got to wait before I can think how this is going to work.

The only thing is in a way, Sasuke has to remain an kitten or at least less of that because his heel turn hasn't occurred. I mean sure you can pull a swerve, like be all good and then do a chair shot to the back when it's all said and done. I mean it would be weird to see all good and then heel turn, only to have them to say "Oh right. Crap." Distrust continues until all is done.

I already edited my post, but I will repost it. 

 

She says "Naruto-kun... What can I do to make you happy?"

 

Naruto and Hinata represent 七夕Tanabata, here is a represttation picture of the 2 lovers that are dressed like Naruto and Hinata: 

20140702102031545.jpg

 

But what's funny is that I think it's mocking the girls feelings, because as in the manga, it's all about their feelings, they are the only ones thinking about love, while the boys don't care at all, they have their own aims and doesn't care about the girls, while in the real story, the lovers were both madly in love and would give anything for the girl. 

 

All in all, I think these cards represent the event of Tanabata more than the story itself. Because of this legend, people are writing a wish on little paper on the 7th of July, like the one Sakura, Hinata, Naruto and Sasuke have in these cards. And the sentence they are telling are the wishes they write on the paper, that’s why Naruto say “write on the cards/paper I will be Hokage!” That’s his wish on this 7th of July, just like Sasuke is wishing for power, Sakura for her feelings to attain Sasuke, and Hinata is wondering what could make Naruto happy because she wants to write a wish that would make him happy.  Though it’s funny for someone so in love with Naruto since so long to not guess that the thing that would make him the happpiest man in the world would be to become Hokage.

I dont really know why, but i really think that the situation of relationship between Naruto/Hinata its just the same as Sakura/Sasuke, the difference is that sakura already noticed (i hope) whos the one that she really loves (naruto) she will recognize it.

it will happen to hinata too, she will find another person who really want to be with her and stop with this amibition for naruto.

Hinata will let naruto be happy, with who he wants, that is sakura.

Well I would say that Naruto and Hinata's feelings aren't a mystery and that's a plus. Sasuke isn't a mystery as well. Sakura is the only one left. We can say we know what she feels, but in character, does she know? That remain to be seen. There's a reason why we keep seeing her moments with Naruto being more than just a normal situation. It's placed for a reason.

Okay now wait there a second. I'm not saying Sasuke knows the true extent of Naruto's feelings. I'm not saying that Sasuke knows that Naruto loves Sakura with all his heart. I'm saying that Sasuke is aware of Naruto's crush on Sakura. That's all I'm saying. Naruto didn't realize Sakura feelings for Sasuke were genuine until the end of Part 1. But Naruto knew that Sakura had a crush or had some sort of feelings towards Sasuke since the beginning of the show. You can't deny this one. Naruto knew of Sakura's crush. 

 

Sakura knew very well that Naruto had a crush on her throughout the whole series. She didn't know how genuine they were until Sai told her, but that doesn't change the fact that she knew Naruto liked her - otherwise he wouldn't always ask her out on dates. Sakura was aware of Naruto's crush on her, Naruto was aware of Sakura's crush on Sasuke, and Sasuke was aware of Sakura's crush on him. Why wouldn't Sasuke be aware of Naruto's crush on Sakura?

 

True, they don't know every little thing about each other. But it's been made clear since the beginning of the series, who likes who, who crushes on who. It's a minor detail in their characters, and it's not that hard to pick up.

 

 

When Sakura get's rejected from the offer of going out in the form of training, Sasuke walks away and doesn't look back. Naruto then asks her out, but Sasuke is already gone. He's walking away and not looking back at all.

I'm not saying he cares about it or gives a crap about any of it. I'm just saying he knows it's there. But if you really believe that he doesn't know about Naruto's crush on Sakura, then I'm not gonna push it. We'll leave it as an unanswered question.

Why do people NOT ship these two? I just don't get it.

Probably cause they hate Sakura. When she's probably the most developed female character in the whole show.

I respect Hinata, but Sakura deserves some too.

Hinata will probably move on, but not to another love interest. She's loved and admired Naruto her whole life. It'll probably take her a while to get over him, but she'll be happy for him nonetheless.

 

It's different for Sakura, because Sakura's feelings for Sasuke gradually faded away throughout the series, while Sakura's feelings toward Naruto have gradually become stronger.

I'm not denying any of what you just said when it comes to Naruto and Sakura. But Sasuke is a different case. Sasuke is not aware of Naruto's crush because when he views Naruto it only pertains to their rivalry, their brother bond, and the jealousy of trying to one up each other. Everything else that goes on with Naruto is irrelevant to him.
 

Sakura knew very well that Naruto had a crush on her throughout the whole series. She didn't know how genuine they were until Sai told her, but that doesn't change the fact that she knew Naruto liked her - otherwise he wouldn't always ask her out on dates. Sakura was aware of Naruto's crush on her, Naruto was aware of Sakura's crush on Sasuke, and Sasuke was aware of Sakura's crush on him. Why wouldn't Sasuke be aware of Naruto's crush on Sakura?

 
That much is obvious for both Naruto and Sakura. She even tells Naruto to go on a date with her to talk about Sasuke. Sasuke only found out that Sakura had feelings for him when she was shown on panel confessing to him. Plus, Sasuke has a tendency to ignore things, one of which happens to be Naruto's feelings for Sakura. Sasuke is very different from these two and his attention to certain details are vastly different.
 

True, they don't know every little thing about each other. But it's been made clear since the beginning of the series, who likes who, who crushes on who. It's a minor detail in their characters, and it's not that hard to pick up.


You're right. It's not hard to pick up, but Sasuke has been shown not to be picking it up. He cares very little about who likes who. Why bother paying attention to trivial things. That's just how Sasuke operates.
 
 
 

Look. There is a chance that Sasuke doesn't know s**t about who likes who in his team. But there's a higher chance that he does know. I'm not saying he's acknowledging it, or even wasting his time thinking about it. If he knows it, he knows it. Whether or not he chooses to care about it doesn't change that. Which in Sasuke's case, he doesn't care.


Exactly, he doesn't care. Which is why he hasn't been shown to care. It's never been shown to be on his radar. It's irrelevant to him. The thought never crossed his mind. I can go on and on, but the point being is that there are no panels showing what you are trying to sell to me.
 

Just because someone knows someone likes another person, doesn't mean they have to acknowledge it, or think about it, or care about it, it's just a fact that remains: This person likes this person. End of story.


You're eliminating all possible ways of Sasuke in some way, shape or form, knowing that Naruto likes Sakura. No acknowledgement? Check. No thoughts about it? Check. Those are the very things that Naruto and Sakura have been shown to exhibit. Nothing on Sasuke's end, and it should be kept that way.
 

I'm not saying he cares about it or gives a crap about any of it. I'm just saying he knows it's there. But if you really believe that he doesn't know about Naruto's crush on Sakura, then I'm not gonna push it. We'll leave it as an unanswered question.


I know what you mean. But I'm saying he doesn't know it's there because he doesn't care enough to know. We obviously aren't going to reach an agreement, so I guess it's agree to disagree.

I already edited my post, but I will repost it. 

 

She says "Naruto-kun... What can I do to make you happy?"

 

Naruto and Hinata represent 七夕Tanabata, here is a represttation picture of the 2 lovers that are dressed like Naruto and Hinata:

But what's funny is that I think it's mocking the girls feelings, because as in the manga, it's all about their feelings, they are the only ones thinking about love, while the boys don't care at all, they have their own aims and doesn't care about the girls, while in the real story, the lovers were both madly in love and would give anything for the girl. 

 

And what do you think of this explanation:

From what I gather Naruto and Sakura are the ones dressed as Hikoboshi and Orihime.

@Luffy I think Iwantbuns is right over there. I mean its definately not that hard for Sasuke to figure out that Naruto has feelings for Sakura. Someone pointed out a good point here. When Sakura stated that she would be all alone with Sasuke gone, Sasuke immediately thought of Naruto. He knew well enough that Naruto is now going be her support system. No Sakura and Kakashi or Sakura, Naruto and Kakashi. Just plain her and Naruto. He might be an kitten but he's certainly not dumb. Whoever mentioned this point, certainly does have a point here

He thought of Naruto and Sakura. Context is everything, and within that context it was about team 7. It's not the first time he thought of Naruto and Sakura together on panel.

Okay. Well, I choose to believe that Sasuke knows about NS :D. We can have a difference of opinions, right?

And what do you think of this explanation:

 

http://sashun08.devi...Cards-466749929

 

From what I gather Naruto and Sakura are the ones dressed as Hikoboshi and Orihime.

I think it's looking too deep into this. I rethhought about it and came to a conclusion by looking at theses cards once again, that's why I edites my posts: 

 

All in all, I think these cards represent the event of Tanabata more than the story itself. Because of this legend, people are writing a wish on little paper on the 7th of July, like the one Sakura, Hinata, Naruto and Sasuke have in these cards. And the sentence they are telling are the wishes they write on the paper, that’s why Naruto say “write on the cards/paper I will be Hokage!” That’s his wish on this 7th of July, just like Sasuke is wishing for power, Sakura for her feelings to attain Sasuke, and Hinata is wondering what could make Naruto happy because she wants to write a wish that would make him happy.  Though it’s funny for someone so in love with Naruto since so long to not guess that the thing that would make him the happpiest man in the world would be to become Hokage.

They are just dressed as the protagonist of the legend to make a reference to it and because it’s always cool to see manga heroes dressed as ancient Japanese style. I don’t think there is really a connection NH and SS. It’s just Sakura and Hinata’s feelings being overexposed once again. I don't think they are incarnating Orihime and Hikoboushi. They are just their normal themeselves dressed as Orihime and Hikoboushi. And it's more logical to think that way since Naruto and Hinata have never been separated.

 

To me it's clear they are all representing Tanabata's event. There is no analysis to do. And really, this analysis, even if I usually love this guy's anlysis, is too far fetched. It looks like a desperate way to make it looks like it's NS and not NH/SS. While it's clear just by judging by Sakura's words that are directed at Sasuke that he's her "Hikoboushi" if we can call it that way. Because as I said, to me, it's not a representation of the story itself, just of the event, which is to write a wish on a paper on July 7th because of the legend. 

 

I'm sorry but it's very clear to me, that if you have to take this cards game seriously and compared the cards to the real story of the legend, it's NH and SS, well as a parody as I already said, since Naruto and Sasuke don't care abaout the girls feelings in contradiction to the real legend.

ONE PIECE - Adventure journal  and NARUTO – Master Ninja, there was a collaborative campaign between these 2 in a limited time on the 17th of January. I think it’s sort of a battle, not sure.

@咲耶姫

 

No I mean Kishi was the one doing the interview. Kishi interviewed one of the producers for TASM2 (who is a friend of a friend of mine) a couple weeks before it came out, basically they just talked about stuntwork, how difficult it is to bring comics to life and Kishi saw the first 30 minutes of the movie as as sneak peek and said "kids will enjoy it for the action and characters while adults can go to the film for an exciting date"

 

I don't think Kishi cares as much about the romance rivals as people seem to think, he did flat out confirm which pairing was endgame several years ago.

 

On a separate note its a shame that those cards are pro SS and NH. I wish NS was more popular I don't get the appeal of NH or SS even with the Bulma Vegeta parallel its nothing at all like that (Bulma doesn't take kitten from Vegeta, and Vegeta tends to avoid argument with Bulma because of how stubborn she is) When were this cards released?

Oddly enough, this would be a good time for Sakura to confirm the world about the dropping the love to us. Maybe, maybe not. I'll wait on the next chapter to see the whole view.

 

It will take them longer than one chapter to reach Sasuke. Probably covering at least 4 or 5 chapters and then longer upon bringing him back.

What do you think will influence Sakura to let go of Sasuke in this situation? You think he'll say or do something negative that will push her over the edge, or will it just be a build up from past issues (and that goes back to the problem, how will it be introduced in such a situation where Sakura's showing care for his well being?) 

One good thing about this though is that it has a higher chance of being brought up without Naruto there. I know there were complaints about him not chaperoning Sakura, but this can actually be a good thing if you want her feelings for Sasuke to be resolved, one way or another.
 

@pepsi: recently, probably this month since the event was a few days ago in Japan.

i agree with u it will take time to bring (the soul of the team (sasuke) :lulz:  )back . . and about sakura . i think all the cases leads to a good thing for NS .if sasuke  thanked her and showed that he now care cause he is touched that they are helping him despite  knowing that he dont care about them . which mean he might acknowledge her(and all of this to happen once is unlikely because sasuke is a jerk but am saying that even if he did. its not about romance),..and sakura will be happy .that her teammate is kinda back .after that kish will show that sakuras tell us that her feelings are different now.and she is over him .(hope so)

 

or sasuke being him self and act like (i was going to figure something by my self. or dont say anything at all except. good .lets go to kaguya..)and kishi show us sakura saying  that why she liked sasuke from the first place. if he was this cold and mean since part 1 . and maybe the bench scene gets in here . .. lets see we will find out soon :D
