^Sakura's feelings will not be resolved off-panel. I want to see her get over Sasuke. Clearly she loves Naruto, but that doesn't mean she doesn't feel anything for Sasuke.

 

Sakura's feelings for Sasuke will be resolved when he threatens Naruto in some way, or when someone confronts her emotions. (Like the book, what makes you happy Sakura/Tsuyu?)

Her feelings for Naruto will be resolved when she realizes it was him that day on the bench.

 

Naruto and Sakura's relationship becomes official after the war.

 

My headcanon. :P

 

So you'd like to see something happen like in Avatar, where Katara confronted Zuko about not hurting Aang?

That's just your opinion.
I find this shallow and stupid.

Of course it's my opinion, what else?

 

How do you want her to resolve her feelings?

I don't get why it's exactly shallow. She may not need to bench scene to realize her feelings however it would be pretty cool/cute if she does realize it was naruto that day which helps strengthen her feelings even more. It doesn't necessarily need to be "the thing" which makes her fall in love however it can be something to help it develop better because when narusaku becomes cannon kishi is going to bring in all the parallels/ foreshadow back all at once and finish them off. So that's one of the things it will lead to.

All I know is that when chapter 631 became a bombshell of other fan pairings, there is no telling what will happen again if sasukes motives end up being well less then stellar. It would make SS fans cringe because sakura would turn away if it became too extreme with sasuke but it would also be the one thing antis would hate, sakura potentially turning to narutos direction. We can for the most part say naruto still loves sakura, to have sakura looking at him like how he looks at her, well when you have one pairing when both face each other and like each other, you know what happens. This would be the thing anti ns fans would hate most of all. The chapter this week, if it really is something major as we are near the climax of vol 67, then we make get a big bombshell event again like a few weeks ago.

Because all the development she had with Naruto doenst mean nothing because she just needs to realize it was Naruto there which makes me question her intelligence.

 

Weren't Kushina's feelings for Minato resolved when Minato commented her on her red hair? I could see the bench scene being brought up and it finalizing Sakura's feelings for Naruto because it will be in addition to all of the development they've had over time, not to mention she will realize that he loves her insecurities and that he can be romantic... because I think Naruto has never really shown Sakura since Sasuke left his romantic side because he felt it would be unfair to try to gain her heart while Sasuke was away.

I see this happening but most likely near end war which might be the next volume or right after the war. This war arc has been stretched out for far too long and it needs to end by the next volume for sure. People will for sure hate how naruto won't get over sakura and how sakura now has feelings for Naruto. It will most likely come as it has been foreshadowed several times through the entirety of shippuden. Naruto's feelings are still strong and they stand. We are now simply waiting for sakura's full resolve and for her to reach the climax of her character development.

Yup.

 

I don't think it's the final step for the two, because they need that long chat.

 

But it's very crucial. It might be the final or second final step for Sakura. The forehead moment was the introduction for NS, it should be somewhat of a solution too.

 

I don't think forehead kiss is far away. Naruto dared to call her his girlfriend in front of his father+ like the whole world, he must be somewhat confident she has feelings for him. Maybe he reflected on her confession and realized he shouldn't have reacted the way he did, because they both messed up that part.

The confession is misinterpreted in many ways. To be frank noone knows what naruto thought sakura was lying about and none of us know what sakura was being honest about. People will endlessly come up with whatever conclusion they want from that confession even though it was only sakura thinking of Naruto. He did call her his girlfriend and that's that. It shows a sign of interest and a sign of care romantically towards sakura. If it was any other naruto could have just said "nope that hinata girl is my girlfriend" but he didnt. The manga is moving fast and a lot of questions will be answered very soon. And as for the forehead scene, It is definitely bound to happen seeing tsunade/Dan do it recently alongside sakura's new forehead seal. It's just a matter of time.

I think theirs been a lot of romance related plot in the past few chapters, I think it might take a step back for a while. We're probably going to be seeing a lot of Oorchimaru and Tsuande. Oh and Tsuande doesnt have to die to pass down Hokage. 3rd was still alilve while Minato regined as the 4th.

She has any feelings to be resolved, she fell in love with Minato after being saved and after Minato changing her, Sakura is more complicated because she loves Sasuke but recognizes Naruto as a better choice, she has to fall out of love from Sasuke and love Naruto.
It's shallow because a comment like that completely dismiss the development she had, Kishi is showing to Sakura that Sasuke is a bad guy and she should love someome else who's a great guy and which can make her happy, not because it wasnt Sasuke who made that comment which is not even touched on her flashbacks, there's no reason for her to love Sasuke but the fact she holds is because she got acknowledged by him on part 1, and she thinks she hopes that can be with him this has nothing to do with the bench scene, she fell in love with someome who doesnt exist, she fell in love with a Sasuke that she thought existed the Sasuke who thanked her on part 1, and thinks that if Sasuke is not evil anymore she would have a chance with him.

Kishi is showing that it's not like it, that it's not a matter of being evil or not but a matter of personality, that Sasuek is not a good guy even if he's not evil, because he's not a great guy to be in love, that Naruto is there, she might fell in love with Naruto but still lacks the fact Naruto changing her, and Naruto did changed her but what is missing is this, how will she realize that Sasuke even being redeemed is not worthy of her and embraces Naruto's love and tells him that she loves him because of what Naruto is.
Bench scene doenst gives that realization, remember that Sakura is a mix of Tsunade, Kushina and Rin.

Tsunade fell in love with Dan because Dan supported her when she needed, Kushina because she was saved and the compliment(but no feelings being resolved), and Rin might be the fact that Kakashi opened her eyes that he wasnt the type of guy that she should be in love plus the realization that Obito loved her.

 

The bench scene might happen but it wont be the reason why she doenst love Sasuke anymore.

 

Sakura got most of the scenes that is described, compliment is lacking but also the scene where she open her eyes that Sasuke is a trash even if he gets redeemed might be the reason she wont love him anymore.

Sasuke, realizing that Sakura's restorative abilities could be detrimental to his scheme, will make it a priority to put her out of commission first by igniting her with Amaterasu through a simple glance (something which he should have been capable of doing to the Jubi but did not for some reason). If the flames are unsuccessful in disabling her then Sasuke will resort to Susanoo but it's inevitable that everyone around Sakura would attempt to protect her should she be attacked, especially Naruto.

I pretty much agree with this. As I wrote in the chapter thread, Sakura is a thorn on Sasuke's side and therefore needs to be eliminated. It's kind of depressing really. Especially after we saw her shed tears from happiness and nostalgy of seeing Naruto and Sasuke working together again as a team.

 

On the other hand, I want Sasuke to actually act on this and have him do something that is irrecoverable. I would like to see how Naruto is going to handle this Sasuke. This will be the hardest obstacle Naruto as a main character will have to overcome.

lol I realize I always change my opinion of Sakura's solution for her feelings. XD

 

Sometimes I can't help but think any Team 7 solution will happen at the end, but it's all happening so fast now, it's like Kishi is squeezing in small yet significant stuff each chapter. I can see it both ways.

 

And Darkrerst, I believe it's a lot more simple than you think. Sakura doesn't need a deep philosophical wake-up-call. I think that will be spared at the end, because I believe there will be a second confession. Shounen series are not that cheesy, but Jiraiya and Tsunade got their talk, plus the first confession was left unresolved.

 

Btw, why do you always like your own posts? :twitch:

Yeah, sasuke was never a good guy to begin with. Even now that he has the resolve and the intend to protect the village. He still is selfish about it and wants to do it in his own way. In any sense of if anyone tries to get in sasuke's way he will not hesitate to cut them off. The two most hinted at who would do this are sakura and naruto but it emphasizes how things can never be the same. As much as they would a team again, the interactions and etc. are not the same. All these characters need to hold onto their past by getting one last moment together and use it to move on ahead in the future.

If Sasuke does attack Sakura, won't that make her a parallel to Rin? 

Since I'm damn tired of constant parallels, I hope this is not the case.

Me too. I know people are criticizing NS fans for parallells, but they're so "in your face" that you can't avoid them whether you like parallells or not. :lol: This is in Kishi's writing style, so I wouldn't count it out.

 

Since Sasuke will reveal his true plan one way or another soon, he might attack Sakura and Sai because they suspect him. He promised Naruto to kill him first, but Sasuke will see this as defense.

Hey guys, what's the best analysis of Sakura's confession to Naruto in this forum? I'd really like to just copy one and use it for NS in other forums. PLS tell me if you have a specific (preferably not too long) post in mind.

The opposing shippers say that Sakura doesn't love Naruto romantically, all the time. 

I'd really like to write a good explanation explanation myself, but unfortunately English is not my native language.

He made the whole triangle love complicated so i believe on what i posted, because if we gather all the puzzle pieces those two things are what missing for Sakura to resolve her feelings.

About your question is because only the strong ones are capable of liking their posts :)

If Sasuke became the protagonist of FFXV why i cant like my own posts =)
