Wait we're feeling good about things now? Hooray! I can finally stop worrying about everyone in the fandom being in a state of despair.
The state of despair is what convinced me to join.
I like Hinata and Sasuke and I don't like SK, and I do have my problems with the way Kishi depicts NS at time (mostly the fact it looks like they value sasuke above one another), so I wasn't too sure I could feel welcomed there. But the fact this fandom is able to question its OTP credibility is a strong selling point compared to NH and SS and their unwavering delusions. "I like it so it'll happen." Nice to see NS is able to not turn a blind eyes to facts that are not in our favours.
I still believe NS is endgame. Minato and Kushina not so subtle support to it is very telling. Of course Kishi could still change his mind randomly (like if crazy NH fanboys kidnapped his cat
), but you won't convince me he at least hadn't had the NS end on his mind for the longest time.
Plus it's irritating how everyone and their moms believe SS and NH are canon, despite all the kitten Kishi has thrown at those ships. I needed to converse with people having the same reading of the story on this point.
