New topic for something Kishimoto did with Sakura. Why did Kishimoto never really give Sakura a clan? Reason why I was thinking about this is because of what marrying Naruto could do to people in clans, and the fact that Kishimoto put all the big characters or decent minor characters in clans.
Decent minor characters/big characters in clans (other than Naruto of course)- Chouji, Ino, Shikamaru, Shino, Kiba, Hinata(NH pwned), Kakashi (I think), Sai (I think too), Sasuke.. and mannnny many more. (Tenten for example isn't really a "decent" minor character, so she never really got one)
What I'm saying is that Kishimoto could have given Sakura a clan, but sense he was looking at the bigger picture for her (NS), he decided to leave out her family, and let her be a solo girl, so you know, she could date him and not worry about the clan not approving of her because it breaks their rules (Hyuuga clan for example). Maybe I'm wrong though, maybe Kishi just though it was too much work, but come on people, Sasuke and Naruto got clans, why wouldn't Sakura?
It's actually not confirmed whether Sakura comes from a clan or not, however people have just assumed that she doesn't come from one because of that reason, while others do speculate that she does, myself included, or else what the hell is that circle symbol doing on the back of her shirt? Usually shinobi that don't come from clans don't have symbols, such as Lee and Tenten, but Sakura seems to have one. Despite the fact that we don't know much about her family, it is assumed that she doesn't come from a clan. My guess is that maybe her father was a well known shinobi, although we don't know a single thing about her father either.
Or maybe it's possible that Sakura comes from a clan that doesn't have a specific kekkei genkai or something, thus it wouldn't really screw with the Uzumaki clan if she ends up marrying Naruto of whatever. Then again the Uzumaki clan doesn't have a known kekkei genkai either [or at least I can't recall if they have one]. Uzumaki Mito got married to Senju Hashirama with no problems with the whole kekkei genkai issue, and I don't think the Senju clan had any kekkei genkai abilities either, aside from the fact that Hashirama could use Wood Release, and was the only known Senju clan member who could do so, thus the Wood Release is ruled out. So there, I don't think it would be a problem if Naruto and Sakura get married since they don't have any known kekkei genkai in their respective clans [
if Sakura comes from a clan].
Aside from the Senju and Uzumaki clans, I think most clans don't marry outsiders, so it would keep their bloodline clean. Although no one knows for sure if this applies to the Aburame, Inuzuka, Yamanaka and Uchiha clans, it definitely applies to the Hyuuga clan. See, if Naruto were to marry Hinata, despite the fact that the Uzumaki clan doesn't have a known kekkei genkai, the Hyuuga clan would be screwed, and the bloodline would no longer be clean now that someone of the Hyuuga clan has married a non-Hyuuga. Or worse, the Hyuuga clan would be even more screwed if she married someone of the Uchiha clan, because then the kid's dojutsu ability would be a mix of the Byakugan and Sharingan abilities. And we all totally wanna know what's gonna come out of that. /sarcasm
