Yeah, at this point, having Naruto and Sakura getting together would not be worth anything unless Kishi really put in a lot of hard work and meaningful development to justify it. If he simply just trashes NH/SS and just throws Sakura together with Naruto now, thinking it would quickly win back all the pissed off fans, it would only be a further insult to the characters themselves (especially Sakura, who would only look like she's just using Naruto as a rebound and emotional tool rather than truly realizing love for him, and Naruto, who would look like a bigger scumbag for simply dropping Hinata like a sack) and us, the (logical) fandom, who, as I just said, care more about solely the pairing in general, like the extremist NH/SS fans do theirs no matter the cost, and actually want it to be believable. We don't want a pairing(s) to happen at the cost of pretty much everyone and everything else in the story because then there would be no point to having the pairing happen to begin with, just like it currently is with NH/SS.

 

But what kind of 'meaningful development' would you expect now ? At this point it's too late. Too much damage has been done. Really. Naruto not capable of making the difference between his love for ramen and his love for Sakura ? I mean what the hell ? Really Kishimoto ? What can be done after that that could be 'meaningful' ? Everything has been destroyed. The roots are no more in the ground. The roots are drying in thin air. It's the end. The story is done. Dead. Everything, every small character is destroyed.

Oh...hell..yeah And I intend to board the hype train

Me too, oh btw here  

3:25 kanto remakes confirmed, remember the hiker that talked about hoenn in x and y and people went "hoenn confirmed" and it really did get confirmed?

they're back in omega ruby and alpha sapphire and talking about kanto xD the madness has begun xD

[Otaru]

NaruSaku was what it was because Naruto was who he was and Sakura was who she was.

Now that Kishimoto changed who was Naruto and who was Sakura, NaruSaku can't exist anymore.

That's why it's so hurtful.

I'm sorry, I might have missed a train, but what are you talking about ? What is that interview ? And those cancellations... is this real ? Would you please explain it to me ?
thank you.

 
Yes according to Japanese fans. The pre order cancellations for the Sakura Hidden Novel (sold out) was perhaps due April third being the day Naruto fell in love with Sakura  (the false Sakura hidden feelings yet to be spoken from the heart advertisement) and to this...

That was posted like nearly two weeks before the Sakura Hidden came out. And oh boy the Sakura fans, SNS and NS fans were pissed so I have been told. The Sakura Hidden only sold 46,000 + copies in its first week according to someone here that posted it somewhere on the Great Naruto thread. 

 

 

 

The interview I'm referring to takes place after the Sakura hidden came out. SP made the VA comment pro-SS 90% of the interviews while they used NS to put down NH. And trust me, this was the last straw for any Japanese fans and so I was told that they sold all their merchandise and manga because they want nothing to do with Naruto. Also, the tumblr user deleted the blog and pictures, so you'll have to go to the Great Naruto thread to search for the entire interview and the article screenshots under the April 5th time-stamp posts.

 

 

 

 

――アニメの放送は続いていますが、原作ではナルトとヒナタ、サスケとサクラというカップリングで三人の三 角関係に終止が打たれました。この展開を皆さんは予想されてましたか？

――The anime broadcast is continuing, but In the original work, there’s a ‘coupling’ of Naruto and Hinata, as well as Sasuke and Sakura. They have beaten the three-person love triangle to an endpoint (through establishing those couples). Did everyone expect this development (to happen)?

竹内：はい。......と、言うますか、実は昔、岸本発生にお聞きしたことがあったんですよ。

Takeuchi (Naruto’s seiyuu/VA): Yes. ……Well, should I say it? As a matter of fact, it was something that we had heard from Kishimoto-sensei way back (then in the old days).

中村：アニメの放送が始まって間もない頃で、お会いしたのも2度目ぐらいの時でしたよね。

Nakamura (Sakura’s seiyuu/VA): It was when the anime broadcasting was beginning, right around pretty soon (after it started). It was also about the second time that we had met (with Kishimoto), right?

杉山：その時から 「最後はサスケとサクラが一緒になります」とおっしゃっていて。

Sugiyama (Sasuke’s seiyuu/VA): So since that occasion, (Kishimoto) was saying that “In the end, Sasuke and Sakura will be together”.

More.

 

 

 

Nakamura: Kushina told Naruto to "find a woman like me", but the only woman like Kushina around Naruto is Sakura.
Sugiyama: Both Sakura and Kushina are the strong one in the relationship (laughs)
Nakamura: That's why if Naruto and Hinata will fight, Naruto will soon go to Sakura's place asking what he should do
Nakamura: Well, Sakura's bond with Naruto must be more stronger than that of lovers/husband and wife. Besides, Hinata is good friends with Sakura too
Takeuchi: Yes if they fight even Hinata will go to Sakura's place
Nakamura: So I think in the end Naruto, Sakura, and Hinata are like a big family

How do you know it was intentional ?

Really ? The majority of japanese fans ? How do you know ? I would be so glad of this to be the truth...how can we be sure it's not only rumors ?

You guys and girls still haven't answered one of my questions. Which is what you would say if this mini-series ends with NS? Would you be ok with that?

pass no. Like 4 life said the characters are too corrupted to be salvageable. Unless they do a 180 but even with that I wouldn't be satisfied since we had to go through with this crap to where the ending is meaningless. Like critics say it is about the journey and not the destination. Is the journey great or is it full of crap?

LOL this is the first time i've seen that interview.

Hahahhaha Naruto and Hinata will end up goin to Sakura if they fight lol is she their granny or something?

Do i sense SakuHina here trololol
i'd like to see that fight

This Gaiden keeps getting worse. If NS is a small possiblity. I mean possiblity in the smallest of chances. I would like to see Sakura vs. Hinata because I want to see Sakura own her butt in a fight and beat Hinata's face in. That would be so great and funny.

[ultranx]

Hang on o_O What does it mean? o_O

well think about it, they're gonna have to remake the other games again now with this alternate dimension with mega evolutions and primals, also the fact red has a mega charizard x in pokemon origins and the fact there's so many kanto megas and there were some big hoenn megas and we ended up getting a hoenn remake. plus its just this specualtion people have been doing for years with all the remakes, they look for little design or wording hints to a past region hinting at a remake, but the thing is x and y was full of them for hoenn and that hiker was the biggest one ever that made people go all "hoenn confirmed", it was jasmine the johto gym leader in the sinnoh games all over again( she was there talking about johto in dpp, and then heart gold soul silver came out xD ) XD and it really did get confirmed with omega ruby and alpha sapphire coming out the next year, just like the jasmine incident xD and now the same hikers are back talking about kanto in the remakes, do the math xD not sure if it was this hiker, but there was someone in x and y talking about a town with a hot spring behind the pokemon center ( lavaridge town in hoenn)

Let that be the first rule in expectation. Granted we all don't but for those who hoped, yeah, this is it. Second rule is expect the worse because at least it can only meet your expectation. Worse can be actually go below.

Yup. If anyone is still hoping for canon after all of this, they're just setting themselves up for more heartbreak and disappointment once Naruto and Hinata are still together at the end.

It will be a repeat of what happened to The Last

So basically....we are getting a Kanto remake with all those Mega Evolutions? o_O You know...Blastoise...Lapras....Dragonair and all of those mega evolutions? o_O

possibly and since the hoenn and kanto games take place at the same time, we could be looking at another xy prequel remake 

 

people are hoping it'll be a pokemon yellow remake xD

 

not sure if it'll come next or a pokemon z though, since its looking like there'll be a hawaii based region next but no info of a new gen, so idk there's no confirmation, this is just things going around

 

though that's strange that all those hints in games to hoenn  and the remakes happened, and now similar hints to kanto in the hoenn remakes 0.o

its likely though, too early for 6th gen to end, we still haven't gotten the volcanion event, plus the mega evolution specials are still coming one after the other 

 

going too offtopic xD but yeah, most likely there's gonna be some kinda new game before a 7th gen, and it seems likely to be kanto or a new region connected to kalos

This is gonna be legen-wait for it- dary!!!!

Also another region? Now I can safely assume thaf Amour isn't becoming canon XD Damn!

We'll see how it turns out. There must be something to it. Although if this is true....then I guess we might get mega evolutions of legendaries too. They have Mega Evolutions too...supposedly. Articuno, Deoxys, Dialga, Ho-Oh....Holy kitten!!!! Its gonna be epic if this does happen!

Sakura is matchmaker remember? And Naruto's big sister lol. The only love interest Naruto has is Sakura & if he's got problems with her I'd imagine he'd go to Shikamaru & Temari. NH fantasy sucks.
