Here's the situation:
NS:
Status: Left on a good note with parallel confirmation, Naruto's never ending feelings for Sakura, and Sakura's speech centering on him.
What's next: Naruto is unchangable. Sakura is. That said another moment from her, as well as parallels need to be addressed, would certainly make the endgame more obvious than Resident Evil 5 plot twist.
NH:
Status: Once seen as a possibility of romance. Unfortunately, 631 happened for Naruto keeping the same feelings, and 633 happened for Hinata to make it a clear indication that it was made for strength and courage, rather than hoping for romantic ending.
What's next: If it wants to recover, Hinata would magically have to steal the parallels as well as making Naruto going OoC that his name ought to be Nardo. P.S. what does that mean?
SS:
Status: Once it had a chance of repair before the finale commence due to 627. Unfortunately, Sasuke continues to be a lone wolf within Konoha Team as well as have an agenda of his own. To make matter worse, Sakura is entering in a distrust mode with Sasuke, which will lead her to let go once and for all.
What's next: If SS needs to look credible, Sasuke must reconsider his actions and start doing nice things for everyone, causing Sakura to rethink her trust. Sadly, due to many moments, this is Naruto's biggest arc as in he will get all the glory and reward, so Sasuke has nothing to do with this.
Well, this should be a fun road in this volume and the next. Next chapter, we'll see if it's true or not.
