Someone just posted this on that thread
"After talking with a japanese friends, I've came to the conclusion that japanese thinks :
Foreigners think that Sasuke's thoughts and actions are too contradictory. It seems Sakura and Sasuke are well liked in japan, and the pairing SasuSaku too.
Rabid Female fans wanted NaruSaku to become canon.
Men are ok with NaruHina.
Because Hinata is more beautiful and has a better figure. ( And bigger boobs. )
That females are just jealous of Hinata. Just some rabid females fans.
Most of the others are fine with the ending, just sad that is ends though.
It seems the legendary sh*tstorm is localized here only."
Wow they do really think that way ? It's not jealousy. It's just that we thought we were reading NARUTO and that the hero would succeed in what he wanted. We also loved the way he loved Sakura. That's all. Also, Kishi let us think that Sakura was changing her feelings for Naruto, and she did for Naruto things you do only for the one you love. Many things pushed us to think that way. It's all written in the manga. I just can't believe how you could think otherwise.
