Remember, Asuma told Ino not to lose to Sakura in love as well. So considering all things, Ino will find the right person she deserves, just like Sakura.
So, honestly, I think this chapter gave a positive nod towards NS.
P.S.: I'm not really jumping up and down of the "troll". The way I see it, Kishimoto could still go: "Remember when I drew this color page and the accompanying text?? well, sorry you fell for it!!! TROLOLOL

BTW, I don't think anyone noticed, but the color page also had the text "flowers, dancing in the battlefield..." sooo, does this mean something big for Sakura is gonna happen?? *fingers crossed*.
I think some mess will happen with her.
