I agree, but knew from the start that Rowling was going to pair Ron and Hermoine up. (Fit the typical trope, although Ron is more a childish jerk then the usual.) And even more undeserving and more of a creep was James Potter. It definitely doesn't make sense to me that Lilly chose James, who endlessly tormented Snape from the start and bullied her. Rowling even admits that Lilly did love Snape, and if she had chosen Snape he would have never become a Death Eater and would have actually fought against them from the start. Despite Lilly's rejection of Snape, he loved her the rest of his life, and secretly protected and ultimately gave his life to save her son Harry, despite the fact Harry looked a lot like and had some personality characteristics of James. I think Rowling missed a chance at writing a better story by pairing up Lilly with James rather than Snape. (There's some great SnapexLilly fanfic out there though, most of those avoid bashing James, surprisingly, considering how much he deserved bashing...)

She was in a relationship like that for a very long time before she married her second husban. So I think that some of her past went into make the relationship work.Even thought I liked Harry and Chou together and Hermione alone. I also liked the Snape x Lilly fan fics too.

*bites lip to hold in fangirlish squee* Loved the hug, best (in my opinion) narusaku moment so far. The "Thank you" made me wonder, was she saying 'Thank you' for saving everyone, coming back alive, or just for being himself?

I may have to write a oneshot on the matter.....

Danzou.....I have a feeling something like this is going to happen:

Danzou: My first decree as hokage is to lock up the jinchuuriki
Sakura: YOU B*TCH!!! *punches Danzou towards the Hyuga mansion*
Neji and Hinata: 128 palms!! *Danzou is sent flying towards that place where Asuma's team eats*
Choji: *spikes Danzou into the ground*
Shikamaru: *captures Danzou in his shadow*
Ino: *takes over Danzou's mind and makes him walk through the village proclaiming Naruto hokage while wearing a 'Dunce' cap*
Tenten: *sends sharp things towards Danzou*
Lee: *takes off weights and kicks Danzou towards Sakura*
Sakura: SHANNERO!!!! *sends Danzou flying off into the distance*
Kiba: Hey look, a shooting star! *makes a wish*
Shino: ........
*Danzou lands right in front of Sasuke's group*
Sasuke: ........*kills Danzou* that's one

Heh, that would be great!

I have a feeling too that Danzo will try to lock Naruto away, and knew Sakura certainly would get enraged by that and probably would start shouting out everything she knew Danzo had done. It'd be funny to see not just Naruto and Sakura's friends go on the attack against Danzo, but the civilian population too- heh, they start pelting Root members with the rubble of Konoha till they have to retreat away from Konoha, where they promptly run into Taka who make short work of them...

Seriously though, I'm guessing Danzo's take over will trigger a Civil War in Konoha, with Danzo, Root and Koharu and Homura on one side, while almost everyone else is on Naruto's side. Shikaku will undoubtedly be on Naruto's side and being the most powerful Jonin, will proclaim Kakashi that side's leader. Kakashi, because of the talk with his father, will accept the role but state he will not take the name Hokage, that he is only leader until Naruto feels he is ready to become Hokage.

12 pages? This is insane you guys you guys!

Considering that the 'infamous' Hinata-confession-chapter 437 discussion thread went on for 13 pages, I'm quite happy to see a proper NaruSaku moment discussion thread getting close to, and hopefully on its way to surpassing those 13 pages. No chapter discussion thread should have so many pages, that isn't about a happy NaruSaku moment

And that doesn't mean that we start spamming this thread with unrelated stuff

[Leney]

I'm glad that the Kumo-nin have finally decided to show up. Although with Danzou now in power I wonder what kind of a reception they're going to get. I think Danzou might see an opportunity to attack Kumo when it is down it's jinchuuriki.

The hug, well most people have already said how I felt about it.

I'm annoyed at the dumb lets revive everyone that happened last chapter. What the heck was the point of any of it. Kishi needs to be more brave.

Um this is geared toward young children and how would Naruto ask people to let go of their anger at pein. If they wear dead ahem .

Let's not bring all of the debate and discussion of that particular subject into this thread. There is already an *entire* thread devoted to just that, so if you want to read other people's opinions on what happened in the last chapter, you can do that right here:

Chapter 449

[catsi563]

I too am curious about Team clouds conversation. I wonder if Kishi is trying to tell us something in that regards about confessions and such. Kishi is not known for pointless symbolism or convrsations there is allways a point to be made in a characters conversations even if it is a subtle one. So im curious about the context of this one, and what it may mean for other characters.

[Derock]

Think of it this way: Did we "accept" it when she confessed?

If you're talking about Hinata's confession, well... you had seen our side's reactions about that scene . But then again, as I said before in another thread, it may be picked up for Naruto's reaction of the confession or will become null and void to be toss aside so that the confession is just as many said, a plot device to have Naruto transformed to Kyuubi once more. Depends if Kishimoto wants to tackle the issue for NH fans to get more "evidence".

You know what, if we keep this up and this thread will definitely be in the Museum, first page. I have to contact Smiter.

No and I don't get why. Everyone just... over-reacted. Despite the fact that we all knew it was coming and discussed as such. I don't have a lot of faith in Kishi anymore, but I knew he wasn't just going to toss everything aside to go with a pairing he never even gave thought to developing.

That's the one iffy thing about shipping; sometimes sense and rationality goes out the window at the first sign of "trouble".

Sigh. Tell ME, about it, pal. Tell me about it. I see that nosense the whole time, in all fandoms I've unfortunately stumbled upon.

Depends if Kishimoto wants to tackle the issue for NH fans to get more "evidence".

After having read the last thirteen chapters, I must tell that, so much as I'm concerned, Kishimoto needed someone got hurt in front of Naruto so he lost his last bits of self-restrain, and he chose Hinata because he thought that her confession could add more drama to the scene. And if he didn't kill her, it was for giving Sakura another chance for showing off, since Hinata wasn't going to stay dead not matter what (Did you realize Sakura, a chuunin, was not only taking charge and making decisions but also ordering ANBU around?).

By the way, have you noticed the parallel between Hinata and Naruto during the hospital scene?

Naruto saw the person he loved huging the person she loved, and decided letting Sakura alone so she could become happy. Hinata saw the person she loved being hugged by the person he loved, and she seems wanting letting them alone (not that she ever got in the way), so Naruto can be happy.

The main difference is not only their expressions (Naruto tried smiling, but his expression was pained; Hinata is beaming openly) but also that Sakura was rejected by her love (so Naruto didn't feel bound by his choice), whereas Naruto is being loved back. Unlike Naruto, Hinata can want to step aside permanently.

Since Kishimoto actually wrote one scene where she confessed, I suppose sooner or later he'll write one confrontation between Naruto and Hinata. But I'm not worried about it, specially after reading this scene, and all chracters' reactions. I suspect Naruto will try to turn her down gently and then she'll interrupt him, stating she understands but she's grateful, regardless.

Um this is geared toward young children

Exactly.

It's annoying tho not seeing Naruto talk to Sakura or Hinata now because it just makes me want to read the next chapter even tho it's days away. I suppose when i finally do get to read it it'll make it that much better tho.

[Lazy-Genius]

I think we're going to have to wait for more chapters then the next one. Danzou's hokage, Sasuke's coming.....but I have a feeling we're going to see more of Sakura's feelings during the Sasuke invasion

I have never, and will *never* ever accept RHr, as I will always maintain that Ron is an absolute git, and *completely* undeserving of Hermoine D:

Wow, I thought I was alone on this... XD

Anyways, we should just watch Kishimoto go, and only when the pairing we all agree on in this thread happens, we should throw a massive party. -Nod nod.-

I agree that during the Sasuke invasion Sakura will see that Sasuke was not the man she thought he was.

Actually a ton of people, on this forum alone feel the same way too XD

It's basically making light of the whole love confession trope. Kishimoto has shown multiple times in his manga that confession=doom. No couple that actually got together in the manga had a confession scene.

Hinata's confession plays the same role Lee's confession did. Kishimoto paralleled it all along, and look who he places right below the Sakura embracing Naruto scene, with the same panel prominence- Hinata and Lee.

I think both were plot devices too. Lee getting hurt protecting Sakura in the Forest of Death was the final straw that made her get up and fight with anger and fierce determination. Hinata getting hurt was the final straw that made Naruto lose control and go 6 tails. In Sakura's case it was a positive plot device, a final push to start the fire that she fights with in part 2. In Naruto's it was a negative, but ultimately necessary hurdle he had to get over to have that conversation with his father and have his father save him. Minato was who got Naruto out of the despair of letting the Kyuubi take over and get back in control to be able to defeat Pain.

Hinata's genuine smile at Sakura's embrace of Naruto was likely Kishimoto letting the readers know that Hinata is content, she didn't need Naruto to love her back, just as Lee didn't need Sakura to love him back. I think that's going to be it. Hinata will fade back into the background.

This arc will involve Team Kakashi, and perhaps Team Asuma and their parents vs Danzou and Root. I'm expecting Yamato and Sai to also play roles. The Cloud ninja will likely get mixed up in it too, and Sasuke will come into the mix too, at some point.
