Naruto really needs to get on the ball with romance. It has everything good in an anime except for one thing. WHERE'S THE LOVE?!

i think sakura will make the first move, if she ever realizes how she feels. naruto's feelings are out there, he's just waiting for her

Yeah, I agree. I think Sakura will realize her feelings first, try to tell him, fail consecutively, and then blurt it out stupidly, Midori no Hibi Ayase style. XD That would be cool!
Either that or Naruto gives up caring about Sakura's supposed feelings for Sasuke and tells her before he leaves for a mission or something. (and maybe he'll tell her that it was him in chapter 3, if she hasn't realized it already.)
But that's just my take on it! ^^

Whew... I really hope I never p*** you off, Geno.

Good rant. happy.gif I've seen an explosion in SasuSaku fanfics recently. One of them even had the words "SASUSAKU FOREVER!!!" in its summary.

They're in full denial mode.

I've never understood how SasuSaku could be appealing because of how fake it feels to me (Sasuke not loving Sakura, Sakura playing "good little girl" and not expressing herself). Sure, in the looks department it may have some appeal. But I agree with Geno that they're just painting a rose-tinted (well, more like a thick lathering than a tint) picture of their favourite avenger and they've REALLY started to believe their own fanfics and statements.

I remember us correcting them on many manga scenes when they blurted out non-existent lines and gestures. It's like they got their wires crossed.

Tundotcom, the romance is there in the manga. happy.gif It's just quite subtle and Kishi likes to take it slow. Give it time, and we will see something really bloom. wink.gif He used to scatter the romance at least a few chapters apart, but it might speed up a bit. There's big SakuNaru in 245, no fluff in 246 but they admired and were proud of each other, and Naruto promised to stop being silly in front of her. A perfect example of how Sakura "calms" him down and stops him going over the edge!

I think Kishi will continue to hint at feelings for both Naruto and Sakura, nudging them ever closer. We could see a talk or two between them on the upcoming mission...

I've seen that one. It was something... I don't remember the title, but I remember the Author. That Hatori Snow Drop girl. She's on my moron list just for the asinine summary.

And relax. I never get pissed off, just irritated. B)
I am not the person to talk to if you like Shikamaru. I am not the author to read if you want to see more Shikamaru. End of Story.

I have fanart... kind of... so there, punks.

Well that's good to know, Geno. laugh.gif I always feel like I make such an ass of myself whenever you happen to be on...(probably because I do...^^). I'm such an airhead...XD

*goes into full-out-rant mode*

I AM SO F@#$%@ SICK AND TIRED OF ALL OF THESE FLOOZIES WHO F@#$%@# THINK THAT SASUKE IS GOING TO BE ABLE TO JUST WALTZ BACK TO KONOHA WITHOUT ANY F@#$@#%r@ CONSEQUENCES WHATSOEVER, AND THAT EVERYONE IS GOING TO F@#$%@#% LOVE HIM, AND HE'S GOING TO GET EVERYTHING HE F@%r@#% WANTS, AND THAT HIS 'LOVE' FOR SAKURA IS GOING TO MAKE HIM DO A COMPLETE TURNAROUND SO THAT HE 'REALIZES' WHAT HE IS DOING IS WRONG AND REPENTS *pauses for breath* IT IS JUST F@#%@$% RIDICULOUS!!! ARGH!!!!

Sasuke's story is a REVENGE story. How often do REVENGE stories end happily?? HUH?? HOW OFTEN? OH, GEE, HOW ABOUT

NEVER

I honestly believe that Kishi-san is trying to make a point here. Every action that we ever take has consequences, be they good or bad. There are going to be consequences for Sasuke.

*cowers behind Geno like Konohamaru did behind Kakashi when Sakura got mad*

Inner Kyuubi has come out... Damn you, stubborn, asinine SasuSaku fanatics! Don't drive Ash-chan mad!

Geno, it's good to know you only get irritated. wink.gif A fully mad Geno would not be a pretty sight.

You know, we're seeing a big turnaround. A lot of people are saying Naruto and Sakura are very cool. Naruto is very likely to be seen as cooler than Sasuke in Part 2, and I find it very hard to see how Hinata can even come close to Sakura's debut in Part 2. Hinata's nice but plain - and how can she top Sakura's development and new look? Sakura also gets on fantastically well with Naruto these days (even clearly showing feelings for him) so Hinata doesn't have the "likes Naruto" angle to herself anymore.

Hopefully the SasuSaku/NaruHina Canon fanatics will become an even smaller minority.

Pfft it's because the SasuSaku's believe that Sasuke is Kishi's favorite character and thus he is entitled to having a happy ending, getting Sakura, and all that other crap they claim will happen but never will.

i doubt hell just come back out of the blue, but its definately a possibility that he'll come back
I worked on the railroad
For t'pence a day
Drank down one penny
The other I'd save
I hammered and I hammered
For God knows how long
Well into madness, with each setting sun
I put my head down and I dreamt you were here
With me by the ol' tree, where no one could care

Far Away Boys, Far Away Boys
Away from ya now
I'm lyin' with my sweetheart
In her arms I'll be found

Then the sun belched upon me
You were no longer here
Lyin' in your place was my hammer and my gear
We came to a mountain
Dynamite and she'll blow
A big hole in that rock
Like the one in my soul

With the heat I was melting
Into your sweet lips
Ah, your kiss takes me back
Takes me back from all this

Far Away Boys, Far Away Boys
Away from ya now
I'm lyin' with my sweetheart
In her arms I'll be found

that's true. I suppose there are three possibilities. First, that he returns to Konoha. Second, that he becomes the regal bad-guy after Orochimaru and Akatsuki. Third, he dies before either happens.

Someone once told me, "No matter the numbers, the truth is always the majority. Even if it is only you against all, if you have the truth, you will prevail."

And that's very true of our pairing. It never used to be something that many fans would consider, but now we're winning. We have always been the majority because we hold the actual evidence from the manga.

Lol, why don't we change the question? What is it with Hinata Fans and boobz?
Nothing is more reassuring than Kakashi saying "They'll be alright. Pakkun is with them."

Well personally I'm not one of those people who believe that Hinata is in the way of NaruSaku happening since Hinata has never been a threat to us to begin with. Especially with asinine reasons like these for their pairing.

QUOTE
Hinata deserves what she wants.
They look cute together.
Opposites attract.
Because it's a match made in heaven.
Hinata deserves to be loved back by Naruto and for once, get something she really wants.
They are the couple who are possibly the canon couple of the series.
They complete each other.
They compliment each others personality.
It's obvious that they have a soft spot for each other.
If this couple won't be a couple...It would be the greatest disappointment in my life...
Sakura likes Sasuke, Naruto will never have a chance, and he will finally open his eyes to accept to quiet love that Hinata has been radiating from the beginning of time.
Kishimoto has already hinted they are canon... =P to NaruSaku fans.

As you can see. Not only did they even MENTION Naruto's feelings towards Hinata but they obviously don't have any real reason as to why NaruHina should happen.

As for the points. I'll let Smiter pick all of them apart because I want to hear what he has to say about them.

Also some comments that I saw on a NaruHina board concerning 245

The first one comes from the person commenting on Naruto saying that Sakura looks exactly the same.

QUOTE
SCORE!!! NARUSAKU -1!!! ANd KEEP YOUR GRUBBY PAWS OFF HIM, WENCH!!! **Tapes a sign on Naruto that reads "Property of Hyuuga Hinata. If found, please return to Hyuuga Residence, no. 1, Konoha Avenue, HD Kingdom. WOMEN, BACK OFF OR DIE!"


Apparently they don't know a NaruSaku moment when they see one.

Also some other comments from NaruHina's on 245

QUOTE
Also i Highly doubt the "Lifetime Promise" would be so easy forgotten, and that chat Sasuke and Sakura had before he left and, all the previous things, like visits to the Hospital, Crying for Him, Protecting Him, etc, etc.

This chapters speaks a lot for NaruSaku but the previous 200 or so speak even more for SasuSaku.


And some more NaruHina comments just because I felt like putting them in.

One: the anti-KibaHina remark

QUOTE
Why would KibaHina work?? Kiba is nothing more than a Naruto-copy without the harsh childhood.


Makes you wonder why they support NaruHina then.

Two: the if NaruHina doesn't happen something MUST have taken control of Kishi's brain comment.

QUOTE
Naruhina is the most possible pairing that'll happen in Naruto's universe. Unless something possesed Kishimoto's brain, this pair will obviously become official in no time.


Well aren't you confident.

Three: Sakura's role in the NaruHina fandom.

QUOTE
Her Role on NaruHina fandom: Making Naruto realize that he's too good for her, and that he should start setting his sights on a certain someone who can love him for who he is, and not for what he could be.


Does that mean that Sakura couldn't fall in love with Naruto for who he is?

Four: They really believe NaruHina is canon

QUOTE
The other reason why I don't think NaruSaku would work is that SasuSaku is heavily implied in the canon, and Kishi seems to be gearing towards NaruHina.


I'd like to know where they get their proof.
