Do you know anything about obito's parents? Lol. What if obito believed they were the source of his ridicule "shouldn't the famed Uchiha be strong" what if they were already dead? What if Rin was his only source of happiness? There's not enough information on the matter for it to be called illogical.
I'm sitting here about to post a counter argument. But then I thought to myself... You're trying to justify Obito's actions. I think I'm done.
I'm sorry but I disagree!! Of course it matters! If Naruto were a manga that had that typical main character who doesn't even know what means woman, that simply doesn't care about things like romance I would totally agree with you . but we're talking about a guy who's in love with a girl since chapter 3 and they have been developed during the entire manga, not an arc, not a chapter, I'm talking about years of development and let me remind you that this guy is nothing less than the protagonist of this series. Then why develop them during the entire manga if that doesn't matter, why spend so many panels and dedication to something that isn't important to the story?, why?
That's a nice and all, but you forget the fact that his love for Sakura is not a detriment to his character. Whether he ends up with her will not effect the plot of the manga. And calm down, will ya? You make it seem like every development that involves Naruto & Sakura = NS. That is the same thinking that the NH fandom does, like chapter 615 for example. I would agree that
IF a pairing where to happen in part 1 of the series, then yeah, that would definitely damage Naruto. But as of right now, based on the current evidence of the manga, Naruto does not care that Sakura is in love Sasuke.
