Sasuke doesn't like loud girls. Hinata is being the only silent one there. Just think about that for a second everybody.

...And that's what the Naruhina fans said after 615..........and after Hinata's confession........and after Hinata's proclamation that she will get to hold Naruto's hand after war...........

Big difference here is that we actually had two major things the NH fans were going on to be confirmed in our favor instead of theirs.

1. Sakura is confirmed as a parallel to Kushina, add this with Kushina saying to find a girl like herself we now know that Sakura IS that girl.

2. Naruto still loves Sakura, sure some may take it as a joke but if he truly loved Hinata instead of Sakura would he have said yes to the girlfriend comment? No.

This is what 615 lacks and what 631 delivers and this is why in my eyes I can see NaruSaku confirmed.

I'm swiftly becoming a fan of Sasuke x Forever Alone honestly.. He is just unstable as hell.

Then again, Karin is ALSO unstable as hell...

Well, I want Tsunade to die, and I really like her character.

I'm talking about wishing death on a character not on their death bed and whose not a villain. In this case, Sakura

Sorry but when had the NH fandom something like a parallel or real build up?
A moment like 615 didnt confirm anything relevant instead of 631. This isnt just a normal NS moment happening, we have the biggest a parallel confirmed and this is something that cant be dismissed.
After a moment like 615 everything could happen but it wouldnt go against the story. This is different with 631 now.

Now that Sasuke decided to become the next hokage and his fight/competition with Naruto is inevitable (promised final battle) I guess Kishi might pull Uniqlo OVA as well.

In all honesty i do believe a SS moment is inevitable. This moment will be a test of Sakura's character. She wont do what Karin or ino did but she will have to face sasuke and his... lets call it temping apologies.

IMO i can see Sasuke hurting Naruto/his dream to be Hokage (and some kind of paralell between Naruto surendering the hokage title to sasuke if asked by sasuke, and what happened between Hashi and madara when madara asked hashi to kill himself)

Why Naruto's comment for the girlfriend part a joke ?!!!!

The panel showed nothing of a joke. Naruto was being Naruto like always and to reconfirm his feelings. I really don't know what to say when I see that it's a joke. Seems that there's over thinking.

Very Short Prediction:

Sasuke: Hey, I always liked the silent type like yourself.
Hinata: Huh..?

I'm OVER JOYED about NaruSaku in this chapter, but I want to go for it all. NaruSaku+SasuHina=Life Complete (Kidding)

[Slextrem]

My little Sakura's growing up so fast. About to use the Byakugō and stuff.

It's so wonderful, isn't it?

The wait for the next chapter is going to kill me! Could you imagine if Kishimoto was going on break next week?

Anyway, NaruSaku is clearly not canon yet. Kishimoto has finally re-confirmed that Naruto loves Sakura, however, he hasn't shed any light on what Sakura feels for him. After 540, it's hard to tell. She could tilt either way, (but I'm putting my money on Naruto. ) Chances are that we won't know until after the war is over. I imagine we'll get one last arc after this to end Naruto and Sasuke's rivalry for the position of Hokage, (I still can't believe that's happening ), and that is likely where we'll find out about how Sakura feels.

Granted, this chapter does show which way Kishimoto is leaning towards, given that he's confirmed the parallel between NaruSaku and MinaKushi. It was the same situation with RTN, but this time, it's canon and cannot be argued by fans. Does that mean that he's absolutely going to go that route? No... But I have a really good feeling that he will.

Again, we'll just have to wait and see.

What I remember was that they were claiming NaruSaku was dead without any proof of how Naruto really felt

only question is: WHy confirm a huge parallel like that if hes not about to go that way and with that go against the story?

I see

[Mistraal]

This is exactly why we can't assume SasuSaku is dead.

I forsee Kishi-trolling and Sakura-hating in the future as she walks down this road between the two guys.

For Sakura, do you think it's going to be Byakugo or a power that would be a surprise for us for not seeing it coming ? XD

[Akashi]

@PhenixElite
This chapter added like +29% to NS chances of becoming canon. It's around 99% for me right now.
Good thing is that Naruto reconfirmed his feeling for Sakura and she didn't deny her "being his girlfriend". Plus we got Minato's approval.

A few cliffhangers still remain. For NS to become canon we need Sakura to put an end to her romantic feelings for Sasuke and Naruto to turn Hinata down. He should do this properly.

That's all that's left to die really... that fact Naruto flat out made it clear that he still has eyes for Sakura basically made anything NaruHina related unimportant

[Inferno180]

Okay well this is one hell of a day for our fandom, thats for sure. No matter what happens now, even if NS is canon forward or not, well least Sakura-Kushina confirmed is a prize we can live with no matter this point forward.

Just remember, don't act all like it was 615, remember things can unexpectedly change, no idea how but they still can I mean, the parallel stuff, its right there, and I'm almost tempted to shout canon, but just enjoy things as they are for now.

Im happy that today at least one aspect of this pairing stuff ends, no more kushina this and that, its Sakura. I'm happy Sakura will fight with her teammates too. Just remember this has been a nice streak for us but it may end for a bit considering the fighting with the ten tails and madara will start next chapter. At this point, though, don't go insane and rubbing it in the faces of others or haters, let them complain about it themselves, just enjoy what we have for now.

Our pairing has been nailed 3 times, I don't think we would be nailed a 4th time but okay, we know this by now, don't let your guard down and act like this stuff was not fully coming, some at least comes forward for a small reason. 16 chapters ago we were in disary, now we are happy. Remember, Naruto is an actio series first, drama second. Romance is a back seat to all this so all the NS, NH, SS claims, this is not some shujo, kishi and the rest may not even pay attention to this stuff, if its just Naruto and Sakura or whoever in the end, kishi is just going for simple romance or whatever he thinks of doing. Just remember, don't make the mistake from 615 and assume you won, we still have to see what happens with Sasuke and Sakura and Hinata herself. In the same way that many other fandoms expected NS to just vanish, we must do the same for those, they cannot be over until there is closure or the characters show themselves moving on, NS is in the lead for now, no doubt but it can change even if so minorly. Just be happy for ourselves this chapter, ignore the hate, don't pay attention to the rants and anger of others, just enjoy this. Even if NS is suddenly killed next chapter (well it won't be but you know what i mean in this example), I will still ship NS cause I like it, I don't care if it becomes canon or not, just enjoy the series and for the reasons you like. Don't be a jerk to others, just leave them to grief on their own if they care so much about these pointless shipping wars. Its not over, things can still change even if they are minor and would seem harder to follow at this point (such as the Sakura-Kushina parallel suddenly being shifted over to Hinata) it would be hard to believe but it could still happen in a crazy sense. Well all I'm saying is, be prepped just in case, I don't think we will be trolled after this event considered we have a fight to come up, but its still just that, stay rational and within reason, don't put up high hopes or you only get a big letdown, this NS-MK reference was well, within reason considering how the last chapter left off, its not like the theories of Naruto and Hinata somehow fighting the ten tails alone or the golden byuakgan. But remember, stay rational and civil, I think after this chapter we can break from this drama again like we did with Hashirama's flashback and enjoy the best thing ever, all our favorite characters and team 7 working together to kick the ten tails well, ten tails. Thats just one giant butt to boot. Now I'm all drained from the hype and satisfaction this chapter, I think I can stand waiting the next chapter after this boost to our camp, Just be sure not to overhype or act too smug, don't build yourself up for something that may fall down. Just be awrare that things may change or turn to what you did not expect. There is still a story and I won't say NS is canon until the events around Naruto and Sasuke fighting for hokage are brought forth. Team 7 still has a story to tell, we got a good moment today but just keep clam and keep looking forward. No need to repeat what the NH crowd did in 615, just be happy, people will love this chapter or hate it but let everyone still have their opinions. I love NS, I believe it will come 100% now, I believe this can be the progenitor to NS, but I'm aware of the loose ends still needing to be addressed between Naruto and Sakura, how Sakura feels towards Sasuke, and Hinata herself, these won't vanish, they need some closure. Just as if Naruto were to move on from Sakura, both Sakura and Hinata need closure with Sasuke and Naruto respectively. I believe these will come and seal all loose ends and give us what we hope comes true, but I can always be wrong and NH or SS can suddenly come up, but we cannot do anything about that can we? Use 615 as a lesson, use 631 as a lesson, be aware that things can change between them, and they still can. the only thing that ends today is the Kushina parallel theory, and that ends with Sakura, the rest is still open so we shall see what happens Later. Until then, I continue to ship NS and hope we sail towards canon, other then that, we may hit some bumps in the future and we are not invincible, there are still things to come so just be prepared. Until then, I am statisfied with these past 2 weeks.
