[quote name='Chatte' date='Jan 3 2013, 11:24 AM' post='426924'If the bond wouldn't have been there, Naruto wouldn't have rescued Sakura and gave Sasuke that killing intent look.

Let's talk about ''one'' of the most important bonds Naruto wants to have and that be having a family. Naruto doesn't like to be alone even RTN shows that.
He is forming several bonds like family for example, Iruka like older brother, Jiraya and Tsunade like grandparents, Sakura like a sister and for the last Sasuke like brother.
I said Sakura like a sister because what happen If she doesn't want to be with Naruto, so he will be alone. That is why Naruto is important that bond and the only thing to share with her is being his brother, and beacuse he has the half of his dreams. But what happen with other half of dreams? ( Yes Hinata is a chance but we do not know what will happen). Besides the undying of Naruto for Sakura still doesn't die (I think) and that is the reason he will not take that chance with Hinata but he will not be alone because he has Konoha.
First of all, let's talk about facts.
It's not Naruto but Sakura that is seeing him and Sasuke like her little brothers. The Databook confirms that, Sakura likes to play the role of the big sister with them, you can see her seperate them a lot when they are fighting together, she also holds their hands in the Chuunin Exam, like "come on, just make friends".
Naruto in the other hand doesn't see Sakura like a big sister at all, this is not the attitude that he's showing towards her.
Naruto is her light, he's the only one who brings her hope. He supports her in her lovestory.
And he does this for only one thing : Because he loves her, not like a sister but like a woman, a girlfriend.
He loves Sakura, he always did, if he doesn't love her anymore, that would be real bad writing, because Kishi doesn't show that in the manga.
Even if he gets together with Hinata, there will be no logic at all, cause Kishi didn't show a boy who can easly give up about his feelings for her. Feelings that are probably to strong to forget.
He did the same for her what did Hinata for him. He did even better, he risked his life against Gaara to save her, he sacrificed his happiness only for her, he only wants "her" hapiness, that's even why Kishi introduced Sai's speech at the snow village. Sai's words back there woudn't make sense if Naruto is in love right now with Hinata.
The only thing we have to worry about is Kishimoto's writing. If he's a good writer, than there wont be NH canon, cause he didn't gives the right developpement into the manga to change Naruto's feelings for getting him paired with Hinata. This developpement doesn't exist, the only developpement I see is a boy who gives all he got to make the one he loves happy, without asking something in exchange... that's all.
The guy doesn't give up, even if he doesn't get together with Sakura, even if she doesn't love her in the end, he doesn't care,
he just loves her.That's a development made so they can be together in the end, because Kishimoto plays a lot with Sakura's feelings at the same time.
Why do her saying that she doesn't understand her feelings for him in Zabuza's arc and in all 3 Databooks ? Why waiting the end of the manga to show her realize the meaning of those feelings ? Why creating Yamato's speech and Sai's questionning about her feelings for Naruto ?
Naruto doesn't get the "be in love with another person, learn to know about him" developpement. Sakura does.
I really hope Kishi doesn't make us Naruto in love with Hinata at the moment, because this just doesn't make sense right now.
Naruto can't see Sakura as a sister because he doesn't show this kind of attitude to her, like she did for him of Sasuke.
Naruto loves her, Sai isn't stupid either, Kishimoto didn't draw that panel for nothing.
I kinda understand that most of people aren'tso sure anymore about NS being canon, but just keep in mind what Kishimoto wrote in the past, and even recently with the movies and Chikara.
He is showing us Naruto loving Sakura. That's all we need to know.
Chapter 615 is just Hinata's final development, Kishi gives her what she wants, fighting holding Naruto's hands, and give some sh*tty fanservice for Hinata's fandom (NH fandom doesn't exist, they are just all Hinata fans who doesn't care about quality in the pairing story, it just confirmed with chapter 615)
Kishi said in his last ITW that everyone will get their moments. Hinata is the first one to show up, isn't this enough to let you know that she will not appears last ?
We all know that the last charecter getting final developpement will be the most important one into this fight against Obito.
Kishi gives us the impression to forget about her, but I'm sure she will get her story after all characters will be showed up. (Neji will not be the only one to die, be sure of that)
Just don't give a kitten about chapter 615, it's just Hinata's fanservice, like we will have some for Shikamaru and other characters.
Hope I convinced some NS fans here. ^^
See ya.
Sorry for my bad english, I'm russian.
