Well,I don't know if this was posted already but the Naruto road to ninja special came out yesterday.

Woah...NaruSaku,LeeTen and NejiHina? You know...i'm not going to get my hopes up but trust me, i'm trying my hardest not to jump for joy. Though i'm not really impressed with what Sakura said about Sasuke understanding her. Especially since this takes place after the Kage Summit arc. Bad Sakura....bad.

Well, we still don't know for sure if Sakura said that. Dovahkiin said that people at 2ch were calling the one who made that post a troll. But there's also another reviewer who said he felt bad for Naruto at the beginning of the movie because Sakura was acting selfish and insensitive with him, although he didn't say specifically for what reason she was acting in such a way.

I guess we'll only get true details when the movie officially comes out.

The bolded certainly sounds like it confirms that line from Sakura though of course I'm hoping its not. Hopefully, its just someone who is taking that scene out of context, or being overly harsh on Sakura (as fans sometimes do with Sakura's character, especially in the anime).

Seriously, I don't care how much NS is in this movie, if Sakura actually said that Sasuke would have understood her trashing her parents (implying that Naruto does not understand her), then I'm going to be really disappointed in Kishimoto. That would be a huge disservice to her character.

Actually getting into it with her parents I can see, and wouldn't care about it -- every teenager in the world has done it, taking their parents for granted and finding them nagging and annoying. Depending on his tone and what level he takes it to, I guess I could see Naruto saying something to Sakura about it (especially if she was complaining to him about her parents first).

Its just the Sasuke comment alone that makes absolutely zero sense, for Sakura's character development and her current view on Sasuke (I mean, we're really supposed to believe that Sakura thinks the guy who's obssessed with his family, getting revenge for them, who never talked to her, called her annoying, "always hated her", and who tried to kill her multiple times understands her better than Naruto, whom she canonically stated understood her in the manga? )

NS moments will help ease the blow for sure, but that one sentence just should never be said.

That being said, here's hoping that this movie really does give off the impression that NaruSaku, LeeTen, and NejiHina will be canon (the Rock Lee spin off certainly does, that's for sure). Those are all pairings I like, so its all good for me!

Hopefully the line is a false rumor, but again, if this takes place in the initial part of Shippuden, and he hasn't tried to kill Naruto or her, than I can kind of see it being said, especially in anger. If she's arguing with Naruto she might do it simply to hurt him. Everyone does this, even to the people they love; because it's the people they love, they know which buttons to push and they push them especially if it's a heated argument. That doesn't mean their isn't guilt afterwards, that doesn't mean Sakura is a bad person. It just means she's human. If it's Shippuden part 1, then there's some excuse for this being said, if it's shippuden part 2, there's very little reason for this being said except out of anger. If she does say it, and does speak badly of parents then this film will also serve as a learning and humbling movie for Sakura too.

I'm not saying I'd like it to be/ if it were true. But don't condemn anyone completely if it happens as we're getting this info out of context. Context being how we interpret the situation that comes up in the movie.

Also, yes, I don't really care about NeijiHina one way or the other but I do also like LeeTen as a couple.

You must be a selective reader since we both mentioned the pairing prediction in our posts.

What do you mean? Did you also made a post that showed movie spoilers?

Only all of the other movies have been in succession time wise (the 3rd movie taking place at a later spot in the time line than the 1st movie, for example). You can tell this by the level of Naruto's abilities; thus, since movie five was the only one where he was able to access sage mode, it had to be later in time than the other movies. That's why I doubt this will take place in the initial part of Shippuden;

While its possible she said this in the heat of the moment to hurt Naruto, that doesn't make it any better (because instead of coming off as completely ignorant and childish, it comes off as purposefully hurtful/malicious and childish). Sakura hasn't ever acted with the intent of seriously causing emotional pain to Naruto -- she hit him when she felt he was being stupid, or rude, or reckless, and she harped at him, but you could also tell that she still was a nice person under all of that -- the first sign of this was in chapter 3 where she thought that maybe she should be nicer to Naruto. I think the biggest clue is during chapter 34, when she thinks that Naruto is nervous/upset over the prospect of the chunin exams, and she thinks to herself, "seeing Naruto not like his usual self is hard". That is why it comes off as totally out of character for Sakura, and I wouldn't judge Sakura as a character for it all, but Kishimoto for letting her say such a line.

I'm not saying I'd like it to be/ if it were true. But don't condemn anyone completely if it happens as we're getting this info out of context. Context being how we interpret the situation that comes up in the movie.

This I'll definitely grant you -- context could totally change the scene, and maybe its not coming off nearly as bad as it sounds; after all there are possible translation errors to be taken into account, if Naruto acted in a manner (perhaps out of his own hurt/anger at not having parents around when everyone else does) to cause Sakura to react hurtfully in return (though again, this seems out of character for him as well), or if the blogger is making it out to be more negative than it actually is in reality (as some people take Sakura's behavior towards Naruto the wrong way).

We will definitely just have to wait until the movie comes out to find out what the deal is with this scene. Here's hoping we're not disappointed.

[Sakamaki Izayoi]

Are we really going to discuss the NF fanbase man, there'a user there that say that there's NO NS on manga or in the movie.
if he ommitted or not i dont care, if he's a SS shipper or not we already got the full spoiler from the blog, i dont care what they think, i just let's not act like them, trying to bring their ideas here and destroy this topic.

[K9ofChaos]

So narunarunaru, (or anyone else who happens to speak, read, write or is ethnically japanese), if you go see the film, you'll write a summary about it for us, right?

[merryGOflava]

i wonder if sakura is gonna fight? >:o.........arrrrg

[Fenris]

A few pages back there was a scan of Sasuke behind a mask. I wonder if that's real Sasuke or AU Sasuke.... or if the rumors about Sasuke being in the village in the genjutsu pretending to be AU are really true.

You're right about the timeline. I had forgotten to look at that obvious clue about the powers he utilizes. Plus if it were to have happened in the first half of Shippuden, Naruto would've already known who his parents were by the time they were introduced in the manga. I am confused though as to why the entirety of Akatsuki appear in the prequel one-shot alive? It's probably safer to assume that this was something he's been planning all along while they were gathering jinchuuriki. I forget that he needed the Jyubi in order to even test out this technique.

As far as the comment, she's human, not perfect. Again, even if it's someone were really care about, if they touch on a touchy subject we sometimes lash out in defense. It doesn't mean she's a terrible person. Is Kishimoto the main writer for this film?

Was this the scan of Menma (Naruto AU)?

Apparently, they are all white zetsus in disguise.

You misunderstand me. I'm not saying that Sakura is a terrible person/character. I am saying that it is horribly out of character for her, and that is why I am upset, because the characterization is casting her in a negative light and regresses her development back to chapter 3 (she already tried trashing parents in front of Sasuke and got chewed out for it, and then reflected that perhaps she was wrong and should try to be more sensitive to Naruto in the future).

Again, I do not blame Sakura or hold it against her character at all. I adore Sakura's character. I love her growth throughout the series. Thus, why the line upsets me. Yes, it shows she is human, but the girl has plenty of other faults already showing that she is human. This comment goes beyond being human, and into either being purposefully hurtful (which Sakura has never done in canon -- she has not once verbally lashed out intending to hurt someone, no matter how upset she was; if you want a canon example of this see Neji during his fight with Hinata or Naruto, or Sasuke's fight with Naruto at VOTE ("What do you know? You never had anything in the first place!"), or ignorant about something she learned in the manga in chapter 3.

Is Kishimoto the main writer for this film?

I'm not sure -- I do know that he said that he put as much effort into this movie as the manga, and that he reviewed every story board and made the animation team cry with his demands, so we know for sure he had /a lot/ of influence here.

I don't know why would she say that but I will not worry about it anymore, we need to wait to find out in what context it came out if she did say that. I still stand on the fact that it isn't true, every spoiler we got so far as been confirmed, and this one for some odd reason has not been confirmed by someone else. The other fact we have is the blogger, that was too big statement for him not to mention that Sakura was still being a shallow fangirl for Sasuke, he didn't instead he said that she was being selfish and harsh to Naruto.

So it might be her saying that he had parent and Naruto didn't I don't know but the statement doesn't make sense.
