The same way he treated Sasuke. Remember, Sakura would be the one who Naruto would be concerned about and chasing after. I wouldn't change the situation, only the fact Sakura would be the antagonist, not Sasuke. Why would it be different? Naruto's acting towards Sasuke is not only because he's Sasuke, it's because of what he has done in the story. If Sakura was the one to do those things, I can safely assume she would be at the same situation in Naruto's eyes.
Yes, I agree. But my main point is that he'll be less forgiving. That's what I received from reading the manga anyways.
Unforgivable...Anything his comrades do will ever be unforgivable to Naruto. Being Sasuke to do those things or not, that's the kind of person he is. He forgave Obito, who killed his parents and friends too, why not forgive Sasuke, who attempted killing Sakura? But as I said, forgiving is not the same as accepting and now I'm adding that understanding isn't the same as accepting too. There's disapproval in Naruto's eyes when he's saving Sakura from Sasuke. He doesn't approve that hatred. And he will never do, even if it's coming from Sasuke.
Of course he won't approve. He's not a villain. But approving is different from accepting. He understands who Sasuke is and he accepts the way he is by still interacting with him like he used to. The way Naruto interacts with Sasuke is the same as he did in part one. Kakashi and Sakura are a lot more wary of him. They don't trust him and act as if they're back to good old team seven. You don't see Naruto acting like that. He acts like Sasuke's murder attempts on Sakura never happened. To me that's accepting who Sasuke is and going on with it.
Yes, you're right. My words were observation that disagreed to your observation. He said that he cannot confess to Sakura because of the promise. There was no indication that that is because Sakura's important to him. That part was your observation.Now you have no proof of what you're saying. I'm based on what Naruto said. He said he can't confess to someone if he couldn't keep a promise. He didn't mention achieving goals, he mentioned the promise. Oh, and good luck with that, Hawaii is awesome.
And thanks, I've already achieved it long ago and Hawaii was awesome
If Naruto asked "Are you alright?", she would still interfere in their fight later and she would still be in danger. The only way of keeping her away from danger would be telling her to stay away from it.
And my point was, if the reason he talked to her was because he was worried as you say, he would have said, "Are you alright? Please don't get in the fight between me and Sasuke because it's dangerous".
His tone was condemning. And not words of how he would usually act if he were worried.
Training is different from being able to actually do something at the exact moment. A great example of stupidity was Hinata trying to kill herself fighting with pain and putting everyone in danger because Naruto went 9 tails. Thank God Minato saved the day. If Hinata trained later, it would be great, but doing that at a moment she couldn't do a thing was completely unnecessary and a waste of her own life.
That was stupid, I agree. But I'm not saying she should have fought Pein. I'm saying that even if there is someone else doing the job for you, it doesn't give you the excuse to lay back and do nothing. For example, Hinata. Her guards protect her all the time and they're probably stronger. It doesn't give her the excuse and do nothing about her current situation.
Sakura would have been more admirable if she didn't just stop with, "there's nothing I can do" but went with "I must keep up with them! I'm a member of team seven too!"
If you keep on putting limits on what you can and can't do, your development stops there. Hence, that moment I thought Sakura's development stopped.
No it's not logical because Naruto can't save everyone at once like she can and with her healing abilities, she can heal herself and be able to fight even being a medical ninja. That's logic.
Can't Naruto use his abilities with Kage Bunshin? If he can, he should be able to that regeneration technique to everyone at once.
Don't you understand that that was a very confidential fact? That it was not something you could go and tell someone even if that someone is important to you? Why does that affect NS?
I agree. It's not an information that you can just tell anyone. However, Sakura is not anyone, she's the member of team seven. She has as much right to the knowledge as much as Kakashi and Naruto. I would've agreed with you if the order to keep it a secret was given by Tsunade or the Konoha Council members. But no, it was just decided by Kakashi who is the teacher and Naruto obeyed it.
Again, because the manga is centered on NarSas relationship, it doesn't mean anything to the romance subplot, since the bromance has nothing to do with it. If there was actual romance between Naruto and Sasuke, you could say it's non-mutual, but the bromance doesn't nullify Naruto's romantic feelings for Sakura, one thing has nothing to do with the other.
Yes, as you say it doesn't nullify it. It just makes it look insignificant.
Actually, The reason I don't like NS that much anymore is for two reasons. The first is this bromance, which I think all will go well if Naruto ends up living happily ever after with Sasuke. And nobody else. Secondly, Sakura should focus her life elsewhere. There is an unfair balance that makes this pairing look terribly one-sided. Sakura is centered around her teammates who doesn't have anything to do with her. It's natural for me to wish that she gets a life of her own away from Naruto and Sasuke.I get your example pretty well, but the only reason for NS to be weak that I see you referring to is related to the magnificence of NarSas relationship that "makes NS non-mutual", which I don't agree with.
