So, he tricked everyone into believing he had saved the world therefor fulling the prophecy, when all he really did is lure then in a false sense of security that will ultimately be their downfall when the prophecy finally comes about? 

 

Or that by everything leading to the ending we got, Naruto unwittingly has become the destroyer that will bring the end of the world.

 

Another inconsistency I was thinking about with HDI; Kankuro and Temari's own murderous nature close to but NOTHING like Gaara's early on in the Chunin Exams... I mean, they still prove vicious, but they were just as bad as Gaara in terms of their bloodlust! And we never learn why they were, outside of likely learning from Rasa, or something else... it's just something that irks me too along with all the other inconstistency bull$^&@*!

When you consider the very first pages of the Boruto manga, it looks like it, lol.

Here's the biggest  character inconsistency that's always bothered me about not just the series, but Sakura's character:

 

 

Chapter 237

 

Many of us remember this vow that Sakura made to Naruto after the fight with Sasuke at the end of Part 1 about bringing Sasuke back together. 

naruto-4619.jpg

 

 

 

 

 

 

This get brought up again in the first reunion with Sasuke 

 

 

Chapter 308 

 

 

naruto-1568429.jpg

 

 

 

 

Granted we know it got intercepted, but at least we see here that Sakura is taking charge in the matter which was showcased growth, and the reason I let this scene slide is because of this: 

 

Chapter 310

 

ch310_UK_Page_05.png

 

ch310_UK_Page_06.png

 

 

 

Sakura resurrected Naruto that tears aren't the thing that's gonna bring Sasuke back in that they both still have to get stronger.  It goes to show you that despite the training they've endured in the timeskip Naruto and Sakura still have a lot to do in order to bring Sasuke back. 

 

 

 

So you might ask yourselves what happened after it's established meant in Chapter 237 and its recall to chapter 308 & 310 nearly 71-73 chapters in.. 

 

 

 

Well lets take a look at what happened? 

 

THIS kitten RIGHT HERE!!!

 

 

Chapter 487 

 

 

naruto-1242678.jpg

 

 

 

 

I'm SORRY BUT WHAT THE ACTUAL HELL IS THAT kitten??   SAKURA'S ENTIRE PURPOSE IN PART II AT THE END OF PART I WAS TO FIGHT ALONGSIDE NARUTO TO BRING SASUKE BACK!!  

 

 

 

This was reinforced back in Chapters 308 and 310, and You mean to tell me Kishi that 177 chapters later WHO gives a rats about that?? I'm sorry, but once again WTF Leave it to Naruto and Sasuke "HAVE FAITH IN THEM!!" cause I'M SO DAMN USELESS GET THAT DUMB EXCUSE OUT OF HERE!!

Sakura is not important enough for Naruto and Sasuke borderline erotic "bromance" I suppose? Like seriously he just over hypes the "ISSUES" between these two like no tomorrow and smacks readers and characters alike over the head that only these two can work out what ever is going on between them and no one can interfere with that What is SOOOOOOO special about the relationship between these two idiotically written characters, I will never understand nor do I see what Kishi sees between them¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I am confused, did Sasuke say "You...will never change?" I saw this from the OFFICIAL Viz manga:

But EVERYONE uses this panel (which is translated by fans:)

So what did Kishimoto write/intend in Japanese? Why's it different?

Official translators are notorious for taking liberties. It feels more accurate for Sasuk'e awful character that he would call her annoying.

The "your annoying" bit is a call back to their bench scene from chapter three where she mocks Naruto and he calls her annoying with clear hatred and contempt. Here, he is using it as a call back to show that by the end of part one despite everything that has happened; there relationship status hasn't really changed. Kishi does this again near the end where he has Sasuke call her an annoyance before using a traumatic genjutsu to knock her out so he could fight Naruto.

 

So these lines in essence mean the same thing but one without the clear call back to the earlier scene. The viz once implies that, while the fan's translation is a call back to it.

And yet Sasuke still marries her. Doesn't make any sense.

Good point. If he didn't love her, why did he marry her?

He did it to shut her up and to be left alone. That's all Sasuke wanted was to be alone and not be annoyed or bothered. He couldn't just say no after a while...he realized that saying "no" only makes them push harder. So he just basically agreed to it so she can shut up and he can be on his own.

All Inconsistencies in the story can basicaly be traced to the ending,

 

Sakuras character failure was a direct result of the ending basiclaly forcibly returning her to her 12 year old uesless roots, which as a side effect basically made every hater right about her character.
