I don't get why people brush off Sakura's speech as a simple "comrade-thing". Naruto will end up with whoever stands by him the most and in the last volume cover it looked like it was Hinata. Now it looks like it's Sakura, so I can kind of get why NH fans are so cautious these days XD

I can't help but feel that Itachi's words relating to Kushina are going to be to distorted by others to create the impression that Hinata's actions in 615 are what he was implying. Besides that, I enjoyed reading that post, it's very thought provoking.

Pretty much sums up 630 regarding Sakura and Naruto. The protecting for Naruto from Kushina and Sakura is an add for the readers to see that both want to protect Naruto, but I don't think it was necessary for that summary in a way. Though, more information about our lovely couple won't hurt XD

I just feel like it's very conveinence that Minato shows up when Sakura is with Naruto as well as making a speech for his comrades. Pretty much, she knows what he feels, like how Kushina feels about Minato. Sure, you can help the guy out too, but it's also good to help the one who he protects the most: his friends. That's something Minato does as well. Anyway, let haters hate, what else is new...

That was an amazing read. Short, and sweet. I'm even more excited for the chapter now!

Also, on the right side of that link. Where did that gif of Sakura come from? Was it in an ending or something?

Countdown to the next chapter! Will it be the epitome that fans has been waiting for or will it suffer the same fate of Hinata from chapter 616? Find out in the next chapter of Naruto!

But seriously, looking forward to see what's next.

Edit: I wish I can see what you mean, but thanks to mobile, I can't see it.

Dude! The next chapter couldn't come soon enough. I mean, FINALLY, I'm fully interested in what's gonna happen next, and time slows down. LMAO. Tis not right! I'd gladly miss some days just to see what's gonna happen next chapter. I think we should make a prediction thread, anyone puts up a prediction, and then we see who comes closest.

Also. I'll describe the gif. Sakura's clutching some light in her hand. She then lets it go into the air, and it's floats away.

By suffering the same fate of Hinata, you mean if Minato didn't talk to them or what ? Cause she's healing him which no cliffhanger in that.

Well yeah. Like this:

Minato: Am I late?
Naruto: Nope, you're just in time, dad.
Minato flys to the battle and fight. Naruto is fully healed.
Naruto: K thanks.
Naruto leaves and fights Juubi.

See? That's one way to avoid all conflicts. On the other hand, Kyuubi is still taking a while to recover, so wonder how long that will take? A prediction thread would be fun.

Haha! Indeed. I've seen a lot of awesome predictions lately so I thought it'd be cool to see which of us would come the closest when it comes to next week's chapter.

NS4life3g

Indeed! Haven't been this excited in awhile.

Could be. If so, they did a really amazing job with it but it looks official though.

Hmmm, would should make the thread then?

628 and 630 prove sakura does care and is close to naruto and supports him. Just again 630 she tells everyone he is doing what he can but its not all his duty. It reall is interesting how itachis speech is resonating with what sakura said, naruto not to do everything by himself so now look what sakura says. This may mean something. Just a short thought, what if naruto thinks of both itachi and Sakura's words? Minato involved too? This can lead to a lot of stuff.

Unlike 615 whihch gave the aspect of naruto and hinata fighting together only tirned out ot be all of them fighting together, not just naruto and hinata. just the set up itself for this one, its really just coming down to a site, situation, and plot device type interaction. Minato only 10 or so feet from naruto and sakura. It literally screams interaction for the next chapter and there are hundreds of ways it can go about.

Though from what narusaku4life said, I would not be suprised if Kishi holds off on the relationship stuff again, but hey with minato there anything he and sakura could interact on could come an anywhere between next chapter to before the edo tensi releases.

I still see 540 as dramatic suspense cause both sides are going, will she change or will sh e never change? That's th e point, it's prolonging it. It can be seen as a misleading thing on both sides kinda like the real Madara having been kabutos trump card. Just that if that dramatic suspense ends with sakura being static towards Sasuke the whole time, that is really anticlimactic. The whole point is like something builds on it and then a big dramatic c moment for her with team 7 and we get our result, it's something like this we would expect a dramatic conflict moment for her to turn to naruto or so. I see her going to naruto cause for Sasuke, if Kishi would try anything along the drama of the series, it's to keep people focused on something for a while only to pull a new reveal. Sakura could possible be having dramatic suspense frm 540 o Bly to later reveal and turn to naruto later on. Or she can remain static and go towards Sasuke. For me at this point, there's just only more sense pointing to the turn towards naruto, given all the reasons in what she did wi th him and not Sasuke. I still shudder to think that Sasuke apologizes easily and the whole land of iron event just became a rough moment in their relation, it shouldn't happen like that.

It's just development to where it came too. If anything I suspect sasukes talk to naruto and sakura to be something more, dramatic and powerful, not a simple sorry for everything, something like Sasuke explaining his own faults and mistakes and about itachi if anything, even if this means like naruto replying back saying itachi put his faith th in me when it came to you. That would be the moment of connection for them. As for the naruto vs Sasuke fight, maybe this all happens during it or whatever, we really will get a clue when Sasuke co ems back, we don't know everything about him yet in his new goal.

Just glad ns is still fine with a good chance for something in the next chapter. Maybe this joy has made us claimed and anxious at the same time

We can rest easy on one count, 628 and 630 proved sakura understands and supports naruto, even if she still loves Sasuke, she still has high concerns and support for naruto. There is still opportunity for her to move towards him and develop as well. Even when this current fight with the ten tails, obito, and Madara ends, team 7 still has to gain resolution. Long as sasuke remains a factor, naruto and sakura can get further development and interaction. I strangely feel that Sasuke may be the trigger to get ns fully in motion and bring it about. Would it be ironic if that happened? Unless minato does not trigger anything. Geez so much can happen and so much potential. But naruto and sakura have that close relationship and it does have the foundation for something more, lets hope it becomes something more.

most likely the gif is from an OP or ED.. don't know which one though

Oh, you mean like when Sakura finishes healing Naruto, he'll just immediately go and fight the Juubi.

Actually, I see a NS moment probably when she finishes healing him, or maybe something unexpected will happen like she'll assist Naruto in a way or another while he's fighting. Though, the last option isn't that much possible.

Ohhhhhhh! Just got an idea. I think she's gonna fight now. But here's what I think is gonna happen.

Of course if a moment doesn't happen while she's healing, it's gonna happen after with Naruto going to fight and Sakura telling him to stop. She'll then say that she's gonna fight with him this time. I'd LOVE a team battle with these two. It's been far too long! I wish Sai were around for this too.

I don't think Kishi will leave the next chapter that..dry. XD Kishi is good at skipping opportunities, but it would be unnatural for Minato to go off without catching up with his son.

It could go that way. But, what makes me doubt it is that she's a medic nin firstly, so her fighting will be something that makes her fight as in her life is in danger or that law about medic nins fighting cause of that specific reason which I forgot what it is... Someone, not a long time ago, putted that there's one law that can let medic nins engage in a battle.

I think Sai will appear after a bit like when Naruto has already began to fight again XD

LOL I know but, I can't shake the feeling. I could see her potentially joining the battle this time. It'd be fitting if the Sannin's students did so.

Also, thanks for the link! Greatly appreciated my friend.

I don't understand why we have to be so concerned about what other fans think about Sakura or NaruSaku. It's annoying that some people dislike her character and downplay her moments, but why seek out their opinion then? Sawyer7Mage and Forneverworld are regular fans of the series, just like the rest of us, so why is what they have to say so important to some? When someone offends you, normally you would ignore them or avoid them entirely. Why continue to annoy yourselves by tuning into their videos - specifically their pairing and anti-Sakura videos? I'll never understand.

This is a very good and very practical post. I'll never understand it either. It kind of reminds me of people who can't look away from a horrific accident. Curiosity compels them to look at the bloody carnage, but then they complain of being sickened or emotionally scarred as a result.

It's axiomatic: if you can't handle it, don't look.

Even if you're someone who can handle it, there are many who get upset by the frequently harsh viewpoints of opposing fandoms, and who would prefer not to see/hear it. I personally believe that's a fact worth considering before introducing opposing fandom meta for discussion.

Just my opinion.

I can't help but feel that Itachi's words relating to Kushina are going to be to distorted by others to create the impression that Hinata's actions in 615 are what he was implying. Besides that, I enjoyed reading that post, it's very thought provoking.

But why should that matter? There are always going to be naysayers and deniers. Always. Even when it comes to things that are not subjective like the interpretation of fiction.

For example, there are people who deny the holocaust ever happened. There are people who deny that men walked on the moon. It doesn't matter that the rational majority know these events occurred, or that there is a mountain of evidence -- A/V, forensic, and eye witness -- that documents those events. There are still some who search for contrary "facts" or any possible loophole to exploit, and when they can't find any simply resort to wild theories to explain what they prefer to believe.

I'm not suggesting that denying the likelihood of NS is equivalent to denying man has landed on the moon. The story isn't over, and none of us can know with 100% certainty until Kishimoto's final pencil stroke is published.

My point is, the manga itself is a "mountain of evidence" that documents the likelihood of NS. The fact that some fans interpret it differently or prefer to believe differently and counter that evidence with denial or "distortion" is to be expected. We shouldn't be concerned over expected behavior, or be afraid to have confidence in our viewpoint because contrary viewpoints exist.

And if we end up being wrong about NS? Then we're wrong. I'm pretty sure the sun will continue to rise and set anyway.

If Minato won't go straight forward to battle, I think, at most, he'll say something to Naruto. I don't think we'll see a chit chat happening, only if the Juubi will take time to attack again.
