Been gone awhile, so I'll ask this... Since the big moment in the chapter where Minato talked to Sakura and asked Naruto if she was his girlfriend .... (or something like that.)

 

Has anything happened between NS / NH?

NH is friendzoned and NS is still building up to possible ultimate win.

And welcome back. :)

Soooo, heres the pic of Sakura with her hair pushed back. Didn't feel like scanning so I used my phone. Quick sketch took me about 5 minutes to draw. Like or no?

This is amazing!  Sakura looks gorgeous like this!  You are amazingly talented!

 

Whats the next NS moment you guys predict?

 

I think its when Obito somehow hurts Sakura and Naruto gets mad

 

Just Like Minato looked at Kushina how the masked man (obito) hurted her 

 

Then he prepared hes Hokage suit.

I think any of the following are possible for the next NS moment:

 

1.  ObiRin/NaruSaku parallel is confirmed.

2.  Either Naruto or Sakura get hurt and the other reacts

3.  Infinite Tsukiyomi is cast successfully, and Sakura's feelings are explored, showing or at least hinting Naruto is the one her heart truly desires

 

You know, the fact that Minato is still around does beg for more parallels, more moments with Sakura, and more importantly, solidifying the pairing.

I don't know that we'll get more parallels, but I could easily see Minato's parting words commenting something about NaruSaku.

 

NaruHina fans say  he will meet Hinata , is this possible?

Sure its possible, anything is possible.  But is is likely?  Not really.  For what purpose would Kishimoto have Minato meet Hinata?  To have him realize she's similar to himself?  That's pointless, because (aside from the fact that Hinata and Minato really aren't similar in the first place) the foreshadowing is that Naruto is going to end up with a girl like Kushina, not a girl like Minato.  To have him realize she also is like Kushina?  If he was going to do that, then why bother having him realize that Sakura is like Kushina earlier?

 

There simply isn't any point to it now that he's already used Minato to confirm that Sakura is the girl like Kushina, and since Naruto already told his dad that Sakura was more or less his girlfriend.

 

 

True, but as far as I'm concerned the pairing has already been solidified. There's not much Kishi can do without making the pairing canon. I, like many other, have kinda had my fill of parallels, I just want interaction between Naruto and Sakura, not Kishi telling us "this is how it's going to go". It's clear where it's going to go, no matter what the haters say. Let them rage.

I could not agree more at the bolded.  I mean, I do still expect the ObiRin parallel to be confirmed, but aside from that, I really just want some positive and significant interaction between Naruto and Sakura more than anything.  I want to see these two characters themselves display affection for one another, or fight side by side with one another.

 

I know it's solidified, but it is needed to make it clear solid proof. No. More. Excuse. They may tried too much on 631, but soon, it will be impossible for anyone. Plus, love theme not involving theirs will stain hard.

This is something else I couldn't agree more with.  The excuses and denial of what's plain on the manga's face is trying me crazy.  This is one of the many reasons I want to see Naruto confess so badly - once Naruto does it, no one can argue that Naruto's love for Sakura is just a crush, or that he's moved on, or that he's confused, or any of the above.  No more denial that Naruto loves Sakura (or at least, an incredibly lowered amount of denial).

 

 

Oh definitely, I'm tired of excuses. I want to see Sakura's confession addressed and whatever she feels for Sasuke resolved. Just make clear and inarguable that yes, this is the intended pairing. Unfortunately, some people will argue and deny no matter how clearly things are laid out, but I guess that will be their problem to deal with.

I really want to see these two things addressed as well, not to mention Sakura's own feelings for Naruto.  Flashbacks or revisitations of scenes like Yamato's speech would be nice as well, though if its revealed Sakura loves Naruto, and has been in love with him for a while without realizing it herself, the romantic interpretation of Yamato's words will pretty much be proven correct on its own.

 

And yes, there will always be twisting unfortunately, but as you essentially said, that's pretty much unavoidable.  For me, if any of the above events happen, I will be too busy celebrating and enjoying canon to worry about what haters will have to say.

 

Lol thankkssss. Figured it be cool to show off more of her face anddddd then her hair wouldn't get in the way either. Think it'd definitely work for her. Glad you all like it!! I was working on a goofy sketch of her eating. :-P

And when I'm sketching, I draw faster than I would if I were inking. I've lost speed actuallh when it comes to inking so im trying to get back into ng groove. I may do a full blown pic of her with this hair and maybe a new attire also?

Should I do the same for Naruto?

At the bolded, please yes!  I would love to see that! 

 

Been gone awhile, so I'll ask this... Since the big moment in the chapter where Minato talked to Sakura and asked Naruto if she was his girlfriend .... (or something like that.)

 

Has anything happened between NS / NH?

Well, Sasuke protected Sakura in chapter 632 along with Naruto, and Sakura looked really happy and either had dirt on her face or blushed (either way it doesn't matter - there was a HUGE debate on which it was) while saying Sasuke's name, and Naruto got a bit jelly, but Sakura pretty much told him it wasn't a big deal.

 

Then in 633 Hinata remembered holding Naruto's hand, and thought how Naruto has continued to improve himself, and how she wanted to stay by his side forever, and how she will move forward too, even if its only one step at a time.  Some (mainly NH/SS fans) take this to mean Hinata wants to marry Naruto, but context suggests that its just about her wanting to keep up with Naruto powerwise and keep moving forward just as he always is.

 

Then in chapter 635 Sai asked what Sakura thought about the current Sasuke situation, and though Sakura told him she was happy Sasuke was back and that she trusted him, she gave Sai a huge fake smile, to which Sai thought, "Your words may not be a lie, but that smile is fake."

 

Other than that, nothing pairing related has happened.

NH is canon, we are just lying to ourselves here, that is according to some fans back in youtube.

 

 

 

^^

But seriously nothing much, uhmm Minato has joined our side, as was Jiraiya and possibly Tsunade. As for NH fans they have Kurenai and Kiba, although that could be considered confusing. In many ways yes, NH is forever friendzoned.

[Chatte]

You know what... I can't help but think about what Shikamaru's implication will be in this Team 7 romantic subplot... This idea just popped out my head after writing a short analysis on Shikamaru's observe on both of the ships, so to speak...

[StriderC]

Okayyyyyy. Older Naruto here. I think he'd look badass with some longer hair. Like mix between his dad, and J man somewhat
I also liked Mennas look so I used elements. From there. What do you all think before I put this and Sakura together? :)

Great. Longer hair suits him well.

Gooddddddd. Glad you like it!! Now I need to give him an attire.

Lol. How about casual clothes ? Like shirt and pants with a stylish touch. Just giving you an idea if you already don't have an idea for the attire XD

You know, I'm fine with nude Naruto...

 

In all seriousness, you're incredible talented!

Hmmmmmmm. I actually like the sound of that. Like his usual casual clothing he wears now. Just updated. That sounds good. I'll do the same for Sakura though a bit more feminine. :) Thanks for the suggestion buddy!

I love the bit of facial hair that you gave him, and his hair looks awesome! You know what you need to do, my friend? You need to make a thread in the Artists' Square so that all of your drawings are in one place. That way I can scroll through them all and squee at my OTPs.

 

(Have I ever told you how awesome it is that we like the same pairings? Cause it totally is. ) 

[BakeNeko-Chan]

Thanks so much for liking my posts Paptala, I feel honored. Yes, I do also think a confirmation of the Obito/Rin parallel is coming, I would be truly surprised if it weren't, considering Kishi's track record.

And at this point, actually pretty much since the 615 fiasco, I've been pretty much indifferent to the 'other side' of the pairing war, it's just not worth getting worked up over.

Lol yeahhhhhh. It'd be cool if he grew a little facial hair for sure. Anddd I shall definitely so that asap. :)

Lmao! I believe it was I who said it was awesome that we did.

Anywayyyyy, is anyone looking forward to the next chapter. With Naruto pretty drained, I wonder what's gonna happen. I think it's about tine Orochimaru made his appearance along with the kages.

[bthug]

I was reading volume 3 and the part with the chakra tree climbing exercise caught my eye. After Sakura reaches the top she starts to boast a bit, but then is neglected by sasuke. She says no one ever pays attention to her, expect Naruto as usual.

 

Now I, like many of you know NS is end game, but I found this as a cool hint way back when at something that Sakura now has fully come to understand.

[Shadow Wolf]

@Strider: For a moment there I thought I was seeing Sora, then I realized that you were drawing Naruto XD

[Fairy Tail Fantard]

Sooo...it has been a while since I was last here. I just recently got into reading the Naruto manga (starting clear all the way from chapter 1) I've kind of skipped around and looked at some of the chapters that everyone's talking about. Chapters like 540, 631 and so on.

 

I used to be a NH fan, but then I started reading the manga. I've gotten pretty far, but I've still got a way to go. I'm...kind of ashamed with my old fanbase to tell the truth. I used to support NH just because it seemed to be what the anime was going for. Turns out I was b*tch slapped in the face when I started reading the manga. I never saw how...'corrupt'? That's not the right word, but anyway, I never knew how wrong the anime actually is. Hinata is...well...useless according to the manga, whereas the anime makes Sakura look like the useless one. This ticked me off quite a bit. It just amazes me how Periot has blinded so many people and made the pairing war what it is now. I'm only a little past Hinata's confession and it's clear as day to me now that NS is the end game!

 

Note to self: If I ever draw a manga series, don't let Periot animate it.

 

I think if Kishi was a little more strict with his studio, we wouldn't have such a giant bashing war going on. Things have gotten way too out of hand. I heard a rumor that there was a guy who bashed a NS supporter's friends in the military just because he liked Sakura. Well, good-bye NH fanbase, I won't be seeing you ever again!
