Sakuras parents told her to stay away from naruto. Again this is not supported in any way by manga fact and is a strictly FanFiction tool. The notion that Sakuras mother --who had two lines in the anime total, and no lines at all in the manga-- is this cruel and repressive harpy is simply ridiculous. there is no anecdotal evidence to support this conclusion, and Sakuras improving relationship with Naruto would actually seem to suggest that her parents are at worst cautious about him but supportive.

Just because we never saw Sakura parents saying to her to stay away for Naruto in the manga, doesn't mean they never did that, after all, 90% of the adults of Konoha hated Naruto, what would make Sakura parents different? But than again, I am not saying this is the reason for her to dislike him, Sakura is not the kind that mistreat the others because someone says so, but I guess you got my point right?

again there is no evidence to support that assumption. Manga authors put peoples reactions in for very specific reasons. this usualy being because they want those reactions emphasized hence why the rookies and team guy were shown reacting to Naruto and Sakura hugging.

if Sakuras parents reactions to Naruto were so negative then I can assure you some mention would have been made either by those parents, or by Sakura herself as to what that reaction is.

it can be safely assumed that since we have never seen any reaction from them at all mentioned or shown, that at absolute worst they are cautiously neutral, and willing to let Naruto prove himself on his own.

at this point gentlemen, we can't really tell for sure whether or not sakura has truly realized her feelings for naruto as of yet. however, i do think we have reason to believe she has, and even if she hasn't, there may be a chance she will some time in the future. my personal idea is that she and naruto will talk before he leaves to fight sasuke, she empty out all of her problems, naruto will prove she has no reason to feel sorry, she'll feel relieved, he'll drop the charming forehead line, kiss her forehead, and walk off to fight sasuke while she thinks about all this time she may have been falling for him.

i'm saying this to! I'm just to lazy to write but i agree to this!

We've also got to remember this is a shouen manga too guys, so romance pretty much takes a backseat to the action and the talkie no justus that Naruto uses, but definitely we'll get our confession one way or another, it's just a manner of time when it happens.

[TheBerserkMoogle]

Technically, we already got our confession, problem is it went haywire.

[Sherry]

as for me, the Sakura's confession wasn't a super for me. Maybe I need more sensing confession. Time matters. Don't worry, time is just illusion, that's what someone from the swamp in Avatar: the Last Airbender's episode told.

Whether Sakura has realize her feelings for Naruto or not I think it's pretty clear by now that she knows that she loves Naruto.

Er...you mean whether Sakura realizes her feelings or not you think it's pretty clear that she does love Naruto ? Knowing and realizing are virtually the same thing...or am I missing something ?(wouldn't be the first time...)

I've pretty much given up debating this sort of thing...While I'd say the manga is blatantly narusaku and they're merely confused with the way things are at the moment, I can't help but also consider the possibility that their relationship may honestly never have a real conclusion.(or beginning depending on how you want to look at it...) It's a shonen manga and to top it off an alternate pairing is the majority of it's fanbase...Kishi would probably be better off not giving a definitive pairing for Naruto.

Even tough I adimit shonen have problems with developing romantic relationships with main characters, I think Naruto and Sakura relationship will have a closure, a theme in Naruto that Kishimoto aways used is that Naruto fight to gain what lacked in his whole life, one is to be reconized by the others (something he achieved), other is to become Hokage so people will acknowledge his talent, and another that I believe he also might desire, is to know what is to have a family, and I believe that with Sakura he could gain that, they could raise their kids together, taught what they know, be an example, share their love, and I think that Naruto need to pass through this kind of experience in order to achieve true hapiness.

A lot of the shonen pairings is the main protagonist and the tsundere and that's Naruto and Sakura it's simple logic. Kishi is following the actual shonen plotline in his manga.

You know what I say? Another speech Yamato! This time actually finish it! >D I wanted to hear what he was gonna say how Sakura felt about Naruto... Wahhh... TT^TT
