I think that Sakura won't get chakra boost from Naruto. I think she'll show us something from her original strength. I feel that she will do something in the upcoming chapters.

But, if she get chakra boost... Hell's gate is opened XD

I think she should do something first and then, a boost. But yeah, her boost will unleash hell. I expect Naruto's reaction to be the same as the beginning of part 2. Maybe Kuruma would comment that if he's going to be with her, don't ever make her mad, which Naruto agrees. I can see that happening. Shoot, Kurama and Naruto are really buds.

That will be incredibly middle finger to NH, especially now. I remember someone said what if Naruto kiss her on her forehead to transfer chakra. That will be...wow... Of course it won't happen, but we can always dream.

I said that XD I basically got the idea from the bench scene, and the that Dan did the same with Tsunade. We can just cross our fingers. ^^ If it happens, it must be when one of them is wounded.

And yes, Sakura's 573 speech might turn into something romantic. Hinata's prediction was to hold Naruto's hand, and walk with him. Sakura's speech was to be with him, no matter what.

T XD, That will be so funny. Madara flat out said "that little girl got powerful because of Naruto's boost". If he says something like that about Sakura, without Kyuubi chakra - I will laugh out loud.. : D

The bolded is exactly what I want. But what worries me is that up till now there has been no evidence of Sakura having a technique other than super strength and medical ninjutsu.

If kishi doesn't give her a power up, then hopefully he will make her op by utilizing her medical ninjutsu and super strength with her intellect. Like Minato and his flying thunder god + intellect. Obito and his Kamui + intellect. Naruto and his shadow clones + intellect. I'm sure you get the point by now. Each of these people have demonstrated using their primary technique with strategic thinking. Hopefully Kishi will make Sakura truly blossom by doing the same.

It's possible too that first, she'll do something then boosting and yeah, I can see Naruto and Kurama having this scene

I think he'll go to plan B... That's if he has one

There's nothing disappointing if Sakura doesn't have a special technique. Her genjutsu, strength and abilities are enough. Sure it would be great if she got a special technique but if she doesn't, that's wouldn't be a grief.

Who knows what sakura will surprise us with XD

Well, maybe Sakura will need extra amounts of chakra in order to help Naruto in his fight but at the beginning has a difficult time absorbing it since it's a tremendous amount of power. Naruto worries while he sees her struggle to control it and then remembers how Mito advised Kushina about the importance of filling the vessel of the beast with love.

So Naruto decides to fill Sakura with his love by kissing her forehead as he keeps transferring chakra. That helps Sakura calm down and concentrate on controlling the extra power.


Canadian DJ was the one who pointed it out first, that's who you should give credit to. Now I love the cover page even more.

Let's dream that would happen, but the possibilities are few. I think we barely will have a drama scene NS or for consolation prize will have a comedy scene between them.

[piinkfairymagic]

I'm just really glad that its over and 616 is out. I was really sick of seeing NH is canon when it really is not and assaulting sakura who is my fav !!! I'm just really hoping that kish have her doing something cool just standing around is not doing her justice. What I really would like for her to get yin release since genjutsu comes from it and Kakashi says she has genjutsu potential.So maybe kish was foreshadowing her new ability in this war . Sorry if its not understandable wrote it on my iPhone .

[Chucky-kun]

Trying to beat an uchiha in Genjutsu, is like trying to beat Gai in taijutsu.

[piinkfairymagic]

Ha ha ha sooooo true guest I just wanted her to get an ability just unique to her as the heroine. Didn't really think that through .Just sick and tired of her getting bash for no reason at all because they say she is useless when she is not. Hopefully kish does his job right this arc. Had stopped reading for a while because I was not very interested but started rereading when Tobi was revealed to be obito. I guest it shows .

I posted this in the recent episode thread, but I want to her opinions here as well:

Maybe the Sakura conference in the recent anime episode was truly a way to clarify that there's ambiguity within Sakura, otherwise they wouldn't have created this scene in which people are wondering who she loves.

This would be supported by the fact that Sakura says out loud she loves someone, but never states who. Even when she thought about Sasuke it was obviously as a reacting to lover-nin saying that whoever she loves is surely a great person.

It could be that the reason she thought of Sasuke in 540 was precisely because she loved a guy who wasn't a good person. Maybe she thinks of Sasuke instead of Naruto because she's disappointed in how she developed her feelings. Lover-nin sounded completely sure that the only type of guy that Sakura could ever fall in love with is someone who is great, but given that she had feeling for Sasuke, a not great guy, she knows that it hasn't been the case previously.

To make it simple, she isn't thinking of Sasuke because she loves him, she thinks of Sasuke as a reminder that she has loved a not great guy, which contradicts the positive statement that the lover-nin gave her.

It's like if you steal something but then tried to be a better person. Later someone comes and tells you "You're the type of guy that would never steal". At that moment you would probably think back to that time you stole. It's not like your doing it now but it makes you feel sad that you have done so in the past.

Would this mean Sakura doesn't love Sasuke anymore? No. This is only to show that there was indeed ambiguity of who she might love, and that her thought of Sasuke might not be a clarification of anything.

Something that could also support this claim is Ino's recent flashback of Sasuke. That was obviously meant to portray Ino's regretfulness of not fulfilling the positive love that she's meant to represent, which is clearly countered by Inoichi who basically tells her that her positive love is the one she feels towards her friends.

Very good theory actually, It makes sense givin the recent chapter as well, this could mean they are starting to finally get over their "love" for sasuke, at least I hope they are getting over it.

[piinkfairymagic]

I totally agree I believe she was talking about naruto but she started thinking about sasuke because of her not so good feelings for him. So yeah she when she was talking to the iwagakure ninja she meant naruto.But some people might thinking I'm wrong.basically that one chapter equal trouble because of the narusaku/sakura haters who do anything make look like sakura doesn't want naruto which she does!

I dunno if you're wrong. It'd make sense Sakura has been trying to figure out her feelings for Naruto, and we can imagine she loves him, but doesn't know to what extent. Just like she knows Sasuke isn't a great guy after seeing how far he had fallen and how far he'd been willing to go to get revenge...

[Chucky-kun]

HOLD UP A SEC.

I know why I thought this conference made NS canon.

ITS BECAUSE OF THAT BLOODY SCENE IN THE MOVIE WHERE SAI SAYS A WOMAN BECOMES INFINITELY POWERFUL FOR THE ONE THEY LOVE AND SAKURA REACTS LIKE A TSUNDERE, JUST LIKE THIS SCENE.

[Deej]

Ino loves Sasuke and this wont change.

Does she? It felt more like her father was trying to say to put Sasuke behind her. It is hard for her to love someone she doesn't even really know and almost never interacted with. Someone who never gave her as much as a thought. Manti Te'o knew his made up girlfriend better than Ino knows Sasuke. Unless Kishi sees Ino as a complete moron after all her Ino-Shika-Cho development, she is over her Sasuke thing.

P.S. Am I the only one who laughed at Lee when he was crying in that panel? LOL, too funny

Lee's reaction was only topped by Shikaku's request. Kishi does have an interesting sense of humor.

[Sojobo]

Hello everyone,

I'm not very good at english, so, I was wondering what Ino's father meant with "a blunt candid love"?
Can someone explain me if it is a positive/negative way to show Ino's feelings for Sasuke?

in the original Ino just say "...A positive love.... isn't?" To me Ino was just wondering about herself and expressing doubts on Sasuke. It was a doubtful question... Her smile sounds forced to me...

Do you guys know why the editors note always have kind of a NaruHina tone to it? When Hinata was "killed" by Pain, the note was "the worst feeling he's ever experienced". And Naruto has been through a lot of kitten throughout his life, although that was the first time he saw a friend "die" in front of him like that. I remember something similar with Iruka in the first episode, but that is not the same extent of course. And I remember something fishy with Sakura's confession too(or maybe it was just a bad translation). And in 615, we get "I'll never let go of your hand"...

Why is that? I wonder..and I have no idea.

if you read the final sidetext of each chapter you'll notice how they're so equivocal and sometimes even ridicolous...
