okay but seriously look (upper right panel).......Sasuke was not stopping...he was going to slice Sakura.

 

 

if it wasn't for Naruto, Sakura would be in 2. 

 

which is why Sakura was upset that Sasuke doesn't seem to care about her (even as a teammate) at all, if he was willing to use her like that. She probably thought that they could AT LEAST work together.

it seems sasuke didn't care about his mistake back then but naruto and sakura did which in a way puts them above sasuke

Oh. My. GOD. YES! kitten YES!!  FINALLY she gets it. After 675 chapters she finally understands; she finally acknowledges the fact that Uchiha Sasuke has never given a single kitten about her (And yes, I know this statement is false, but let's pretend the few instances where Sasuke did save her ass never happened, just this once). THIS is what I needed, not that ambiguous piece of kitten that is Kakashi's inner thought. When it comes to pairing moments, in particular, I do not give a crap about these outside sources. I only care about what Naruto and Sakura are thinking and feeling. The previous chapter pissed me of so bad (in a number of ways), I thought about doing a rant, but I'm so glad I held off. This is what I needed. 

 

Only one thing I didn't like in this amazing, beautiful chapter, that one thing Sakura did. Gonna be blunt here; simply a dumbass, heat-of-the-moment move by Sakura. I mean, really? This is the same guy that annihilated the Gokage. The same guy that summoned freakin meteors on the SA. The same dude that fodderized 9 bijuu + 2 jinchuuriki, without EYES. No type of communication with your teammates. No type of planning, just balls-out, huh. Oh Kishi. Her haters will have a field day with this one.

We have seen that since Sasuke arrived on the battlefield , Sakura has been unsure of him and suspected that he is not there to help the alliance  , but for his own hidden agenda . Even last chapter , she is shown not to trust him and asks him what is the real reason behind his wanting to become Hokage .  She probably  still hoped that the old Sasuke was  back , the one who has come to care about them (somewhat ) in part 1 . Imo this was not romantic , this was just to show her that this is not the old Sasuke and that this Sasuke does not care about them , his team mates . Had it been Naruto in her stead , she would probably have come to the same conclusion . She  just realized that all hope is lost for them to ever be real team 7 again . 

[James S Cassidy]

I think what is more ridiculous than Sakura realizing Sasuke doesn't care now.....is Naruto still thinking he does care even after all the same stuff that Sasuke had done. Forget Sakura, what reason does Naruto have for still believing Sasuke is a good person?

Kishimoto is going to milk it and express how much Sasuke couldn't care less about Team 7 until the final battle between Naruto and Sasuke.

Sakura was going for the right while Sasuke was going for the left. That's how I saw it.

 

I don't think so, it clearly shows the place Sasuke attacked and it was where Sakura was. That's also why Naruto was like "!!" and rushing to get to her before Sasuke swung.

 

(man I feel like I should photoshop and mark what I'm talking about)

[Shadow1275]

After rereading the chapter, you guys are right, it really looks like he's trying to stab Madara through Sakura. And that's why she think he really doesn't care at all about her.

Bolded: Lol bc she couldn't figure that part out when he Oh i don't know tried to stab her in the back 100 or so chapters ago?

[Toasty Warrior]

This about sums up what I feel about Naruto right now:

 

[Chatte]

You know on the the subject of complementing Sakura for her actions........... Well While I DID admire her efforts, I can't call charging in the best course of action,and to say otherwise would be yet throwing another double standard to Hinata fans that that praised her when she charged in to attack Pein. Just keep that double standard in mind before you start OVER-FLATTERING Sakura. Once again It's not that I don't enjoy it because I love how badass Sakura looked here,but it is not different from the Hinata scenario which a lot of you were saying was a pretty stupid move. Remember these rods turn things into nothingness so I think a few more seconds would have been bad.

No offense but:

1. Sakura had a plan, unlike Hinata and that was to create diversion.

2. Sakura KNEW that even if she doesn't stand a chance to win over him, she can create that diversion via Byakugo which takes her out of danger's way.

3. She did that while acting as a support mechanism, she let the others knew she was going, while Hinata just went there, no plan, no chance of survival, no teamwork involved or anything.

 

So sorry to say it, but we do have reasons to over-flatter her over Hinata, no offense.

[Gojira]

I loved how Sakura got to do something this chapter

I love how we finally get to see the Infinite Tsukuyomi after several years of waiting

I hate the confusing crap going on in Sakura's mind. I'm sorry say what you want about me but I can't help but get the impression she was more focused on Sasuke than Naruto for no real reason

Sakura gets stabbed and Naruto saves her and asks if she's ok

Sakura: "yeah thanks whatever" (*sniff* Sasuke-kun I can take the murder attempts and you not being a great guy but this...)

Naruto vaporizes multiple island sized rocks at the same time
Sakura's reaction "!"

Sasuke has trouble chopping up smaller rock debris falling
Sakura's reaction: "W-Wow!.."
 

[rocci]

Just want to say that sakura is a tank and she tried to create distraction to madara.

Sakura officially a paladin.

[pizza_blade]

Saying Sakura is amazed by Sasuke's flying mode or that she noticed his Rinnegan as legitimate Sasusaku moments:

 

Coming from Sasusaku fan: really stretching it out.

Coming from Narusaku fan: really paranoid stuff.

Yeah you could be right. It's getting harder and harder for me to understand the choreography of these fights.

[Cherry-Bloss93]

I don't know what's up anymore....
 
why would she care?? she should already know that he doesn't care when he tried to chidori her face off.
 
also...was Sasuke going to slice Sakura if Naruto didn't come in to save her??

I was actually wondering that, too - if Sasuke was going to sacrifice Sakura to get a hit at Madara.

[Nic]

It is really curious and I wouldn't doubt it if that's exactly what Sasuke intended to do.  Kishi is obviously fully aware of his placement of his characters in that panel when he draws them, so whether or not that was Sasuke's intention to sacrifice Sakura, kishi clearly knew it would be looked upon that way.

True in a way, however difference is Naruto was pinned down unable to move and Hinata chose to do nothing to help the kid. She decided to show how badass she is by charging Nagato, only for Nagato to show her how pathetic she is.

What Sakura did in this chapter was the correct move, even if it didn't work.

[merryGOflava]

I was upset before, thinking Sakura actually cared what Sasuke thought.

 

but after seeing that Sasuke was going to slice her, I can totally see why she'd ask that question. (I mean COME ON dude, she's on your side)

 

you don't see Sasuke trying to use Naruto like that....he must think Sakura is useless in this fight and only good for being used as fodder.

I think all those reactions were not to Naruto and Sasuke , but to what the power of the rinnegan can do . She is even shown wondering if that is really the power of the six paths ...  she is just amazed at the kind of fight this actually is . She already knew of Sasuke's susanoo and what it can do since the fight against obito ... no reason to be surprised about that

[Cherry-Bloss93]

I seriously wonder if the Infinite Tsukoyomi(?) will be put into effect for real this time.

Remember Sasuke cut though Karin to get Danzo. So I woudn't be to suprised if he was planning on doing the same thing here.

[Hiraishin]

Plus, it wouldn't be the first time Sasuke has cut through someone in danger to get to his target (Karin in the Danzo fight) so it's shouldn't be so hard to believe that that happened here.

That flying Susanoo thing is really cool though. It reminds me of something, I think, don't know what though...
