and you should too. join the cult today!

I think Rin is cute, but not too cute for me to worship her like Obito. Now Sakura? I'd definitely worship.

You should start worshiping Sasuke it would make you go trough this manga allot easier

I'm going to be honest here. I dislike the easy intimacy that Sasuke and Sakura seem to share on the cover. Her wearing that kind of clothing doesn't help, and she's also pressed against him and has her arms around his middle. They almost look like they're in a relationship. ugh.

I didn't expect Kishi to draw Sakura being comfortable with holding Sasuke considering all the times he tried to kill her. But then again, he makes Naruto consider Sasuke as a great friend, so my expectations should be kept low.

i wonder if they had babies after that hug on a white horse <3

Fan service
It's funny, the scene represents what the majority of the westerns like

Pointless fanservice, since NaruSaku is the majority of Naruto shippers in Japan, right?

He has to confuse the readers
No scratch that, he wants to confuse the readers

though sakura's hands doesn't give a me an intimacy impression... it's just weird how kishi did draw her hands around sasuke's belly....  with clenched fists... Maybe she feels so uncomfortable in that shooting during the running? Maybe it's for this that she hasn't her own horse...  And what's wrong with the dressing? lol

 

funny think that all this is a representation of western world..lol

I'm not confused lol. I just don't like her being close to Sasuke like that, at least not now.

IMO

 

In Kishi's mind it isn't low.

I think in Kishi's mind it's high.

 

He's depicting Naruto as a guy you can count on, even if you're doing very wrong.

Sakura is the same.

I know he likes that, but fanservice really should be directed at the main audience. It'd be nice to get a color cover of Sakura blushing and holding Naruto from behind instead. I mean the point of fanservice is to make that fans happy, right? Just feels like he's only catering to the minority. (I don't count the LOTR cover because Sakura just looks angry/is yelling at Naruto :()

Sweep it all under the rug, we all good. That's the impression I got from that scene and I didn't like it. You can count on Naruto, but he sure is delusional about his relationship with Sasuke.

You aren't confused
But a lot of SS fans now think they're canon
Eh I can't really do anything since the bothering seem personal

Is NaruSaku really the most popular pairing in Japan? I don't really know if it's still true nowadays, but I'm hoping it's pretty high up there.

Her hands are secured to make for better balance (so she won't fall)

Kishi could have given her her own horse if he wanted. Pretty sure the only reason he has her riding with Sasuke is for a pairing tease. As for her clothes... there's not much of it. She has on short shorts and a top that shows off a lot of her stomach. Nothing is wrong with that specifically (it looks cute on her) but it means a lot of skin is pressing against Sasuke. Its just bothering.

I thought it was? I kept seeing people say that...I know Hinata won the most popular female Naruto character in the polls in the most recent ones, but that's not reliable. Ugh, so it's more even then? I guess that explains the SS fanservice :(
