Fun facts:
- No one ever confirmed that Naruto is child of prophecy, it's only was told that this child would fight with a man with strong eyes [Sasuke fought Madara]
- It's been told that child of prophecy would bring revolution to this world, Naruto didn't [Sasuke did in fact?]
- In the end, if you look at it, the only characters that succeded in their ways - is both descendants of Kaguya's childs and both have dojutsu (Hinata aka heroine, Sasuke aka main hero)
- Both characters Hinata and Sasuke - is perfect couple in terms of story (not a plot wise, I bet they didn't share even a single panel, LOL) - both a born within a clan with dojutsu, everything handed to both of them without much determination from their sides (Naruto to Hinata, random ninjutsu claws to Hinata, MS to Sasuke, EMS and Rinnengan to Sasuke), both used supposed main hero and heroine only as tools in their fates.
- Both, supposed main hero and heroine - Naruto and Sakura - was underdogs from beggining, both worked hard, even developed strong feelings/connection between them, both where fighting their desteny [jinchuriki/weak woman] to become someone who worth of being friend/shinobi/hokage, and both ended up being mare tools in desteny of real main characters, and served as price for them.
Well, that's pretty much Kishimoto's way of thinknig.
The prophecy is so vague I can apply it anyone. Hell, this prophecy applies even more to Obito than even Sasuke. Watch
- No one ever confirmed that Naruto is child of prophecy, it's only was told that this child would fight with a man with strong eyes [Sasuke fought Madara]
Obito also fought Madara and actually managed to beat him a few times in a few areas. The prophecy never says anything about winning the battle now, does it?
- It's been told that child of prophecy would bring revolution to this world, Naruto didn't [Sasuke did in fact?]
Actually, this could be Obito as well. Obito started the Fourth Ninja War which actually brought about peace more than Sasuke and Naruto did. Noone ever fought after the war was won.
- In the end, if you look at it, the only characters that succeded in their ways - is both descendants of Kaguya's childs and both have dojutsu (Hinata aka heroine, Sasuke aka main hero)
Obito technically succeeded in changing the world AND he got Rin in the end...even if only in death, but as it is said the prophecy never said anything about winning or living through it. Just that a battle would be fought.
- Both characters Hinata and Sasuke - is perfect couple in terms of story (not a plot wise, I bet they didn't share even a single panel, LOL) - both a born within a clan with dojutsu, everything handed to both of them without much determination from their sides (Naruto to Hinata, random ninjutsu claws to Hinata, MS to Sasuke, EMS and Rinnengan to Sasuke), both used supposed main hero and heroine only as tools in their fates.
Again, Obito got free power-ups too thanks to both Madara and his own Uchiha blood. He was also injected with Hashirama's cells which granted him more powers.
- Both, supposed main hero and heroine - Naruto and Sakura - was underdogs from beggining, both worked hard, even developed strong feelings/connection between them, both where fighting their desteny [jinchuriki/weak woman] to become someone who worth of being friend/shinobi/hokage, and both ended up being mare tools in desteny of real main characters, and served as price for them.
Again...Obito Obito Obito.
So if that is the case, then the main character is not Naruto OR Sasuke, but Obito. Obito who brought true peace through war, who gained love of friends and influenced a whole new generation of people no matter evil he had done.
See how easy it is?
