 That's because Naruto's heart has always belonged to and will always belong to his beloved Sakura-chan!    No one but her can get anywhere near it!

Even my heart belongs to Sakura chan! *looks with gleamy eyes*

[Gojira]

How can you be so sure, who does Sakura is trying to save from Kaguya's dimension Naruto or Sasuke ?

Neither of them are in danger so she's not saving anyone. Both Naruto and Sasuke are needed to bring Kaguya down hence why they are retrieving Sasuke.

I don't understand this fandom at all. How could you not ship these two together. I mean just look at them:

or them

They're so cute.

Love is in the air.

Let's look at the facts here people even if Sasuke did magically gain infatuation for Sakura, if the RTN film taught us anything its that, that doesn't matter she is still closer to Naruto. 

[Sakamaki Izayoi]

Still, we're talking about fiction. The scene filled with toughts about saving his dream, not letting him die, no matter what it costs, mixed with desperated emotions and drastic efforts... Including the fact that one character is the love interest of the another... No? Romantic not even a bit? Hahahaha. Review your concepts. 

Exactly the problem , there' no "desperate emotions or drastic efforts" she seemed too calm for someome who always let her emotions take the best of her, obviously i'm not saying it would fail but the whole problem that she was talking about his dream on which no one pointed out for 200+ chapters and wasnt big business because he was focused on saving the world and Sasuke.
It makes no sense for her to think about Naruto's dreams instead of her own emotions, it just says that Kishimoto was holding it back.

The whole "romantic concept" is subjective.
In my opinion it wasnt solely because Naruto was unconciouss which is a minor deal but the the main fact is how Sakura reacted to it, it wasnt about her own feelings or emotions but rather Naruto's dream and i dont see it as romantic but rather something platonic,
The person whom you're supposed to be in love just died and you think about his dream?
It makes no sense in my books.
It should had be a flashback about a moment of them together like the hospital scene.

God thats a funny picture.

 

But for all purposes, again the stuff you see in the build up is enough to convince me that this isnt just going to all be sidelined for something else that in its long history of negativity, it just got one moment that was not bad. I mean it was not romantic or meaning sasuke loves or will go loving sakura, that's the thing that wont happen. Its just as many keep acting like SS is going to keep moving to canon, I doubt it will, NS will have more moments again, that is assured. The only ones in the cold right now are NH and still frankly it will last how long we dont know. NS is still in the best spot and has a lot saying it can come, it just depends on how kishi makes Sakura move away from Sasuke, such as confirming or confronting this sasuke stuff herself. I mean she has felt doubt before or her feelings for naruto could outweight what she feels for sasuke, realizing he is more important to her, anything that has her put naruto in her heart more. I mean even in this chapter, for "loving" Sasuke so much, its her "care" for naruto that seems to override this even to the point where obito says this is to help naruto and help him on his path. Its still funny that despite the uneasiness and not clear reasons for her loving Sasuke, she sure "cares" a lot more about naruto and even doing these actions to help him, not herself just make it seem all the more curious. Yeah there are still many good reasons that sakuras feelings for naruto can be beyond friendship, I mean she has shown it as more than friendhship in some cases. Thats what makes NS great, the development and dynamics and sakura herself doesnt even know how she feels about him and has given some moments in return.

 

Also Darkrest, couldnt we also argue that then why didn't hinata, who we know loves naruto, didn't go? I mean to me it is suspisius in itself for hinata, to be an intended love interest, misses out on one of the most important events where the hero is down and needs help and instead she trips and goes missing for a few chapters? While its your view that it may not have the effects many others think, some like me could easily say, but she doesn't exactly know what she feels for Naruto, her feelings to him have always been fluxing at this point between friendship and more than friendship at certain points and it still just goes back to that deal of what bugs everyone about NS and SS, Sakura has a better relationship and the better basis for a romanctic relationship with naruto yet she only "cares" for naruto but "loves" sasuke despite all the crap he has pulled. Its to people like me a better question of what is kishi entirely presenting here with these strange conflicts such as sakuras outlook on both teammates and hinata on naruto yet he doesn't use hinata that much kinda leaving her out of the important stuff and not bringing anything forward where it matters most neither with SS. Yet he does this again and again with NS, giving it the most development and screentime.

 

sakura loving naruto is what we need to get NS canon, but it has to happen by means of either naruto confessing and sakuras reaction, or sakura moves to him on her own realization while either overcoming her old ideal feelings for sasuke or her "care" for naruto surpasses her "love" on sasuke and its one part maturity, another part she really comes to see naruto more important to her after everything. More events would come to bring this out bit by bit, one gradual push after another. If anything the 663 stuff and memories could be a start for that or continuing this if its already begun. Sakura continues to change in regards to both naruto and sasuke, its very possible she could come to love naruto in many ways while either no longer loving sasuke or narutos relation with her becomes more important to her than that with sasuke. And frankly for a manga gone as it has with NH and SS not being shown much, developed much, and otherwise given much negativity, gaining moments where not everything is solved, rather nothing is exactly answered, while they will be resolved, the one thats actually gotten development and dynamics is the one i would keep and eye on and still say it has a good chance to be canon, espcially when you factor in the change from the start to now and other stuff such as foreshadowing and these moments the two have with each other, not hinata nor sasuke. Even today with what obito said in the help naruto on his path deal going back to what kakashi said in 655 to obito, its very reminiscent of 663 in a sense in which she wanted him to be hokage, she is helping naruto on his path as obito put it so this means all his goals and dreams. She wants him to be hokage, its already a sign of who she supports in the finale, with a notion of this retrieval for sasuke being based not on her goals but for naruto and the betterment of the team, its like how much more will kishi then put on sakuras focus on naruto? Its a curious thing despite her not being in love with him because its funny, as I said many times, her care for naruto and love for sasuke will hit a point where who does she truely hold in her heart more, the one who always supported her or the one she always had her own views on, even given how sasuke has no need, purpose, or obligation to love sakura, SS at this point isnt even a granted to happen end pairing for all purposes, sasuke himself didnt need to do any of this stuff and still doesn't. Thats what I would call suspicious.

The only problem is...Sakura not realizing it :/

[Codus N]

I guess. Just...felt strange.

Honestly, I actually thought that was hilarious. For the first time ever, somebody is actively trying to get Ichigo to notice Orihime for once as something more than a friend. And of course, if Rukia had been there, Ichigo wouldn't be getting just a slap for all his trouble. Rukia would've kicked him in the balls.

ok, finally i got the wsj preview in HQ resolution.

 

preview WSJ: ""Finally Kaguya will be sealed by Naruto and Sasuke?!"

 

Any news regarding the big announcement: "In order to commemorate the breakthrough of the serie's 15th anniversary, an extra-large project will start!! Next issue, there will be an important announcement!!"

 

I really think that it will be about a new movie, written always from Kishi.

[FreakySandra1995]

It's true that SS and NH has been trolled in the past, but so as NS. NaruSaku isin't protected by Kishi's trolling, and it is surely not a canon pairing as of right now. This reminds me of Madara thinking he could use everyone for he's own sake and make them his puppets without being worried of anything... and then BOOM, black Zetsu was using Madara all along.

 

This is why I dont put my expectations to high at the moment, I feel like everything could happen right now.

 

We may not be protected from trolling, but we are protected by plot armor so to speak. I said it many times, but with 631 we are basically untouchable for SS and NH and well. We are the pairing that got the conformition of Kushinas dying words regarding which girl she wishes for Naruto to end up with. And this was done really bluntly there. You can consider this as an armor of any moment another pairing got that contradicts this fact.Until Kishi flips this to 180°, we really have nothing to fear.

That's kind of a weak armor. I prefer actual moments to back up the pairing (like NH keeps getting) over parallels.

 

I don't consider a light-hearted moment in 631 a guarantee whatsoever.

[awesome sauce dude]

What are your guys predictions for next chapter

What do you think about 662 and 663? Sakura's dream is for Naruto's dream to come true, she stated that his dream "is right in front of us", meaning that they both share his dream. And the fact that she did everything that she could to save him.

I'm delaying my LAP since it's stormy outside. That said well this is the preview from the magazine themselves, so don't know if this moment will happen now or later. If now, good chance that we will skip ahead and just move forward to "business as usual" with Sasuke, which won't surprise me. I mean from the snippet of my LAP, this could be another way of saying "thanks" or acknowledge as you may call it. You know, since this uses actions to say sorry or thank you or whatever. If that moment happens later, then well, time will tell.

As for the project, my guess is on the movie as well.

Don't get me wrong, I don't  say that this is what makes NaruSaku strong or whatever. It depends on everyone own interpretation, but for me it was a really strong indication of whats about to happen. That's why I'm not stressing about this SS moment. I feel pretty safe with my pairing.

Kaguya being sealed after just 6 chapters of life and health? That can't possibly be what Kishi intends to do. Usually it takes double digit chapter amounts for proper characterisation to settle in and for their actions to start having an effect on the plot on a grand scale. That was how Obito and Madara were unveiled as their motives and background were gradually fleshed out over the course of this war. I would hope that Kishi extends the same courtesy to Kaguya since this is apparently what the manga has been building up to with the emergence of this "rabbit goddess".

Assuming the announcement concerns the movie, what would it revolve around? Surely it's not about some after-story conflict since the manga is still on-going. If Kishi has involvement then he might choose to tie it into the stage where the plot's set at now. The question is how to go about doing this since the premise of an elaborate genjutsu world has already been used.

This is an insane dejavu I'm witnessing today. Quite honestly, I want to laugh. But...I can't. At work.

If so, this actually tells me something will go wrong or something won't go according to plan. Too many holes left to be answered, let alone the fact Hokages aren't here. If the preview is right, something is going to happen.

Hello All , New Member 

This was a great chapter. So Sakura lost her vest and will be going back to the Ice-Dimension probably. Naruto will surely be concerned

might even offer her his jacket  . Classic chivalry and Sakura blushing then would be good
