Naruto promising to die if he fights Sasuke and the bench scene are two things I will consider, I would feel cheated if Kishi does not allow Sakura to asking him about dying against Sasuke,and after Kushina flashback I will feel very disappointed if Sakura does not know that it was Naruto who read her thought and the only man that has ever complimented on the most hated part of her body just like Kushina and her hair.

One things for sure is that she knows it wasnt Sasuke, it would be better for Naruto to compliment her without bringing that scene back.
I dont want this became the reason of why she had feelings for Sasuke.

Sakura doesn't know it was Naruto who commented on her forehead..

Sakura doesn't know it was Naruto who commented on her forehead..

But she does know it's not Sasuke.

wait did I miss something?! as far as I know Sakura believes that It was Sasuke who complimented her on the bench scene.

No she donti recomend reading that again because it's left for interpretation when Sasuke comes back she finds weird why he was acting like nothing happened.
It was obvious that it wasnt a big issue due to the fact that when she confessed and even when on her own flashbacks that specifical scene is not bought up again then leading to a conclusion that it she knows it wasnt Sasuke since this scene didnt affected her feelings(increase/decrease) for him.

Flashbacks are an important evidence for this that's why i strongly believe this scene does not have an important impact on the NS/SS or whatever.
This part of the scene is not important for me it was comical due that the scene didnt have any implications on the next 620 chapters.

I think Naruto will say something about her forehead but i dont think it will have some connection like "oh it was you" if even Naruto didnt make a flashback of this scene.

The scene already had it's purpose which was
1st - Why naruto loves her
2nd - Sakura atractiveness to Naruto.(forehead/smile)

The only flashbacks that are recurring to Naruto is her hugs which is why i believe she will do the same hug to Naruto as a meaning that she loves him, this type of scene is overrated but i dont care.
About Sakura's flashbacks and the reason to make her hard to move on was the "thank you", it's already proved that she has no reason to love Sasuke and the new ones just force her to move on from him.

well guys, I think we've concluded that the only one who can make narusaku happen is none other then mr. emo eyes himself, Nagato Uzumaki..... i mean Sasuke Uchiha

[TouKen4Life3g]

When you think about it, the advantage is on Naruto's side. The comment will be only discussed with Naruto, not Sasuke. Honestly, I don't think we will ever see any SS interaction until the very end, maybe. The advantage is the fact Naruto is with her at all times, so definitely his side has the most advantage.

I would like to happen that ,the question why Naruto will die against Sasuke it is promising that could happen that scene, but the forehead and the compliment about her hair may not. I say this because Kishi did not put more drama that time or many other times but for example that occasion when Sakura discover about the Kyuubi, that scene sounded like she already knew it could happen more I think.( In that scene I was waiting something like a doujin that saw in youtube call team 7 NS SS butterfly) So with Kishi will wait the confession the Naruto y the NS becoming cannon and not more.

I strongly believe there will be another SS interaction, but it will be the last one. I guess people will react the same way like after 615. Maybe this moment isnt even that far away, if we take that the flashack ends soon and sasuke makes his way to the battlefield.

I believe this last interaction with sasuke, will make sakura totally overcome her feelings for him.

The problem I have with the Bench Scene is that I'm not sure if it's important enough to be brought up again. Many of us argue that it's the reason Sakura's feelings for Sasuke strengthened but I don't think that. Afterwards, she was still just as shallow and fangirl-y as ever. To me, it seems like her feelings started to turn to love during the Chunin Exams because of sympathy for him (I think? I really have no idea how she developed such deep feelings).

I'd say the same about Naruto. Contray to what some believe, IMO he did not fall in love with Sakura during the Bench scene. He just understood why he liked her a bit more, which left an opening for his feelings to develop deeper in the future. I'm not quite sure when Naruto fell in love with Sakura, but I know it's somewhere between Late Part 1-Mid Part 2.

I'd see some importance if Sakura or Naruto flashbacked to the scene, especially Sakura. We all know Kishi likes to show importance through flashbacks. We have gotten zero. Even during Sakura's confession to Sasuke, when she refers to bench, she was talking about when he yelled at her. That was an open opportunity to show the forehead compliment. I don't really think it meant that much to her, his "Thank you" meant a lot more than that. I actually think this is because when Naruto did that, he immediately brushed it off ( "Just kidding. That sounds like some dumb thing Naruto would say."). I honestly wouldn't think much of it either tbh.

Will the Forehead scene be brought up again? I would like it too and it's possible. I just don't think it's needed for NaruSaku to become canon, there are many other, more IMO sensible options that Kishi can execute. It could easily be side-stepped and never brought up again, Kishimoto doesn't seem to see it as crucial so far. You can argue the MinaKushi parallel to NS (Confirmed explictly in RtN, moderately implied in the manga/anime), but this doesn't mean it will happen. MK and NS are a lot like, but don't have to be identical. Just the fact that Naruto likes and once complimented her forehead is enough.

Though I will admit, there's something really sweet and symbolic when Naruto completely admitted to loving her forehead when no one else did, that she hates, and was bullied for. Just liking a physical or character trait over someone when the person is insecure over it is really romantic/ironic. It's almost like Kishi was proving to us based on later development that Naruto and Sakura truly are destined to be together.

That moment when you realize we've been stuck in the war arc since April 2nd, 2010.

Damn, Kishi.

By the way

Does Sakura know of Naruto's heritage?


Haven't seen the new movie but according to the plot she will find out, but in the manga we don't haven anything to confirm that. Seeing that Minato is now resurrected there may come a moment when the father and son will talk between themselves, so that Sakura can witness. The other moments when Naruto meets his parents are only in his mind and Sakura doesn't seem to know about those conversations.

That's what we have to wait and see her reactions. If Naruto and Sakura see Minato and if Naruto says something that tells her that's his dad and she's shocked, then now she knows. If they see Minato and Sakura looks at Naruto right-a-way, then she already knows. It's strange, because the movie suggests that she already knows about Naruto's family. I can't say she knows Uzumaki, but we have to wait and see.

I guess you can be right, Sakura will slap Sasuke then give him a pep talk and finally they will hold hands.

[TouKen4Life3g]

Lol.

But really, they may talk at the very end and it will be the last. Same goes to Kakashi. Naruto is going to have many dialogues exchange from the fight to the end. There's a chance that Sasuke will never speak to Team 7 ever again, but again, it's a chance. To me, Naruto still have the most advantages when it comes to when to interact with Sakura. He left too many open discussion, so expect more developments.

Huh? Sakura and sasuke will hold hands? Or do you mean naruto and sakura?

[Sojobo]

Do anyone consider Sasuke attack Karin is the same as Naruto(Kyuubi 4 tail) attack Sakura, we found out that Mangekyou can influence the user to become more darker. maybe when Sasuke and Karin meet again, Sasuke might have some regret what he done to her.

Most people doesn't really understand Sasuke.
I hear sometimes that he doesn't care about Sakura because he tried to kill him. But this is not true, especially when you know today why he's acting like this.
It's a curse.

If Sasuke really doesn't care about Sakura, than it's the same for Naruto. Cause he tried to kill him in first part, remember, the Chidori in Naruto's heart with an evil expression ?
Result : We see Sasuke always caring about Naruto deep inside his heart in second part (Naruto's bridge scene, Amaterasu against Killer Bee, encounter with team 7)
Sasuke just lie to himself, he tries to destroy the bonds he has with Naruto, Sakura and Kakashi because it hurts him deep inside his heart. He's not 100% evil yet, he just needs that light that Gaara was talking about with him at the Gokage reunion.
I even think it's the same for Madara and Obito. Madara wil probably vanish after encounter with Hashirama who will save him from darkness.
Obito will probably be saved by Kakashi and Naruto. He already showed some weaknesses.


So, I think he probably regrets what he did too Karin, otherwise, it doesn't this make sense what we saw before that event.
The guy took risks against Killer Bee to save her twice :


He doesn't even listen at positive suggestion of Juugo, he just stay there, only for saving Karin.

And a few weeks later, he tries to kill her, for an uknown reason (and SasuSaku fans were confirming that he doesn't care about her)... until Hashirama's and Tobirama's excplanation about Uchiha's curse.
The "Sasuke doesn't cares about his friends" doesn't work anymore.
Even Sakura, he cares about her, of course, I don't see him in love with her, but he has the same bond as every team 7 member has with her. They are family.


But his family is now growing, he encouters new teammates, that he makes him think about that same team 7 (what makes him decide to use Amaterasu to save them) : Karin, Juugo and Suigetsu, who doens't hesitate anymore to give their life for him.
Suigetsu who didn't care about him in the beginning is now doing everything for him. For Juugo, Sasuke is everything to him, and for Karin, she's just madly in love with before part 2 began.
He realized that after Killer Bee fight, but the curse took advantage in Gokage's reunion.
Today, Sasuke seems to be calm, returning to his trueself, even Orochimaru doesn't reconize him anymore.


When Karin will meet Sasuke again, I think that he will apologize for what he did.
Of course Karin will have an explanation about "why he did this to her". She probably knew that he wasn't himself, but she doesn't know yet it is because of the Uchiha curse.
Maybe that this will also gives Karin the opportunity to make her confession ?
We definitely have to know what happened between those two in Orochimaru's hideout. I think it could give us some hints for a futur pairing.

Yes I believe in SasuKarin. I believe even more than before when Kishimoto confirmed that she was an Uzumaki.
Hope we will see her soon.
