Well something will happen to stop the war or rather delay it. We have kages down.

I do believe the next arc will be heavy on both team. Kakashi, as a member of main character, is getting his possibly last development. Then we hit off with Sakura, then the finale. That's how I see it. Surely, it's no coincidence. It's like I said, we focused on the minor characters, now we are entering the main characters' development. I do see team Naruto vs team Sasuke. That way it will lead to just Naruto vs. Sasuke when both team are taking care of fighting each other.

I'm still pissed off how madara whipped the kages off screen , nobody knows yet what happened to the kages and since the alliance is heading towards naruto it'll probably take them a while to find out,unkess one of the kages gets healed enough to contact somebody because I doubt that they'll head to naruto after that,they won't have enough chakra or energy ( note that tsunade may not save ALL the kages)

yeah i guess you're right about the minor characters they've had enough development time for team 7
I'm really rooting for a team kakashi vs team hawk fight

I just hope the next arc is more about naruto and sakura cause in this arc was very low for Naruto and sakura. i think we saw sakura about 4 times.
Hopefully there will be also some more during the ending of this arc.

Oh don't worry, I'm positive it's coming. Think as Immortal Arc. Just wait and enjoy.

Nice theory and quite possible, however we cant know that yet but i can already say that i like the idea of that.

That's very simple, look at her reaction when she rejected the man and their discussion after that, leading to the fodder ninja to say that her man must be great. There where no conflicting parallels, linking Sakura's thoughts to Sasuke before that final phrase, which all NH and SS refuse to see.

She has rejected him nicely, not showing any sign if she was using this phrase to have an easy way out of the situation nor if she was truly thinking of someone, but when the guy said that he must be a great guy and she thought of Sasuke, because he has reminded her of him, which it was to show the readers that some feelings that till now she is still having for Sasuke are hurting her and most of all, to show that these leftover feelings are bringing her nothing but hurt.

Sakura is having a slow dramatic change in her feelings as her leftover feelings for Sasuke are being overriding by her feelings for Naruto and she still have to have that moment where she realizes that she truly loves Naruto. It's that or she will claim her love for Naruto in a specific situation, although i see that kishi will take the first option at the most.

Personally I though she did the easy without explaining herself that she doesn't want to be in a relationship, because she responded very quickly when the man handed her the love letter.

Well yea, that thought would be the one comparing that she's thinking of someone specific when she first answered him.
That moment is the most dreadful one from all the moments when Sakura thinks about Sasuke. She just have to wait for that moment of realization to come for her.

Well there is no doubt she still loves sasuke would be fake is she wouldent. i think it wil last a bit longer dont forget the only reason she wanted too kill him was that she didnt want too she him turn more like well lets say a monster and for the part that she will choose naruto over sasuke mabey but if the manga is still 2 years from being complete i think it will take a while TBH and there is even a chance that the 1 who would mention it in the end is sasuke him self we just dont know for all we know it will be SS in the end but lets hope not

i think you did not get the right picture, saying that she wanted to kill sasuke is just one of the things but also you forgot that she did it for the sake of naruto, she did not wanted to naruto put his life in danger to try bring sasuke back, she knew that confession was going to fail since the begining because she knew that naruto would not give up, for me it was more one of sakura's mistakes she understimated naruto, because she did not tell him the truth, gaara had to play this role and naruto fainted wich it was a very stupid scene.
Sakura did not think about the outcome of her decision, she thinks more about after she kills sasuke but she did not have the power to do this, she were going to die and this would bring more pain to naruto, Obito is there as a proof.

That scene did not played the stuff that kishimoto wanted to give to her the "heroine" stuff actually it was the opposite it give more fuel to the sakura haters.

What minor characters have we been focusing on? It has mostly been Naruto and Sasuke/Itachi/Obito for the past three years. Heck, the anime had to make an entire filler episode about Team 8 because they did nothing in the war in the manga. If anything I hope Kishi pulls back and shows us some of the characters he has been neglecting. We haven't seen the K12 since February for instance.

Well, when I say focused, I don't really mean that kind of focus. I should reword it. What I'm saying is that these minor characters got their spotlights. A lot of them did. Especially the one that needed their development. We get bits from Naruto, but again, the other characters get their spotlight. Now, we are entirely focusing on the main cast. So yeah, that's why the war arc felt so long.

Like i said before, Sakura got to have this moment of realization because she's the character in this pairing who haven't realized truly who she loves, and if it wouldn't be by this moment, she will claim it in a specific situation on her own. Sasuke could be the one who'll mention it to Sakura but i don't think it's that big of a possibility cause Sasuke doesn't care and thinks about these kind of things.

If you ask me, we are going to see the whole alliance fighting with naruto against madara and hopefully were also going to see some NS moments during this fight

Yup, the alliances are going to arrive sooner or later so of course when they arrive, they're going to fight with Naruto and most probably there's going to be NS moments from time to time along the fight, at least two moments.

I am still waiting that Sakura will make a heroine entrance and save Naruto's life. Like Madara about to capture him and she make her entrance.

Yea, i always picture that too or when they have already arrived and fighting, suddenly she attacks Madara from behind while Naruto was going to take the blow from him. I can see that happening or something close to these two.

[PhenixElite]

I just remebered the scene on the heaven and earth bridge with yamato talking to sakura while healing naruto and thought why kishi would show us this part if naruto is not going to end up with sakura.

Know what i mean? After this scene i think it should be clear that naruto gets sakura or not ?

[Deej]

I do worry about what Kishimoto will do with Hinata. Given how Naruto-focused she has become, I worry that she will immediately run off and try to help Naruto once the Alliance arrives, rather than stick to any Konoha 12 plan. Now I hope Kishimoto doesn't do this, but I can see it happening, with Kishi believing that this would be Hinata's natural reaction to seeing Madara hurt Naruto. Which means Naruto and the others might end up having to save her. It would shoehorn a NH moment where it didn't belong.

True but, What did Yamato wanna say :
A I can see that you really like Naruto.
or
B I can see that you really love Naruto.

there is a difference between Liking and loving

But who knows the 1 moment naruto needed too stay down (knocked out) and ofc he wakes up too soon
True i fear the same not really the save part couse i doubt hinata dies or anything. But more the part where we hope sakura will help naruto but will go too hinata instead

No i cant really see this coming also im pretty sure there will be another NH moment before NS becomes canon because hinata still doesnt know that naruto loves sakura so she will have to know one day and till then there are some NH moments for sure, but also many NS moments.
