Yeah, in fact, once KH2 was released, they all straight-up said, "Naruto."

 

What do you mean? Did they just randomly shout "Naruto" for some reason?

From what I remember, Kingdom Hearts was about exploring the universe fighting various popular characters in different worlds and growing more powerful as you go.  It was a very interesting concept.

 

How it all relates to Naruto I'm not sure.

 

I did find this though : http://www.narutofor...ad.php?t=469384

Mainly the Akatsuki. Remember, they have those organizations. Plus the three main people are similar, but not alike. Riku and Sora is bromance, but hey, what isn't these days.

I happen to read something from another site/ forum and it made me think if how can we say that naruto really loves sakura and it is not just a crush? I just want to ask...but I will always be a NaruSaku fan!

Because he is willing to go all lengths to make her happy . His feelings only got stronger even after the 2 years time skip . He doesn't only love her for her looks bit he loves her for whats in the inside as well . And he indirectly stated it and from what I see no pther girl catches his eye

Because of what he has done for her, and how he acts around her. It's not that hard to tell he actually LOVES her. He gave her the promise of a lifetime back in part one. You could tell by his facial expressions it hurt him when Sakura was crying for Sasuke, 

 

His actions towards her are too strong to be anything related to a simple childhood crush. Look at the facial expressions when in doubt.

Typically crushes are short-lived in duration, and Naruto's has had romantic feelings for Sakura for at least 5 years now (12 - 17 years of age).

 

• Naruto risked death to save her
• Sakura is the only individual (rather than a larger group) that he has sworn to protect, physically and emotionally.
• Naruto looked incredibly pained at seeing evidence Sakura loves Sasuke.
• Naruto put Sakura's feelings before his own in order to make her happy, despite it breaking his own heart to do so.
• Naruto indirectly told Sai that he has romantic feelings for Sakura and that he wants to confess those feelings to her once he fulfills the promise he made to her.
• Two people, one of whom is Sakura, has said Naruto is in love with her.
• Naruto told his dead father, one of the people he respects and loves the most, that she was something like his girlfriend

 

Naruto has done everything Sakura and Hinata have done to show they love their respective love interests aside from actually confessing (but we know he wants to), throwing himself in front of an attack for her (but he still risked death to save her, so this is just a technicality), and crying over her (which he's never had a reason to, since he's never thought she was dead and she's never betrayed him in a manner that Sasuke did).

 

There's no question that Naruto's feelings for Sakura are love and not a crush.

Terrific post, as usual.    

 

The only thing I'd add is that, depending upon the translation, three people have indicated Naruto loves Sakura.  This panel is from volume 1, chapter 3 from the official English version:

 

 

He was henged as Sasuke at the time, and didn't say it out loud, but Naruto is pretty clear on what he feels. ^_^

Now I got NS feels again...

[xxRomanceGirlxx]

I actually find it somewhat ridiculous that Naruto is the only character with an interest in someone (out of Sakura, Hinata, etc.) that fans try to claim is not in love simply because he's never said it. It's been developed the entire course of the manga. Actions can speak louder than words, he shouldn't need to. It's going to happen at some point in this manga, it was foreshadowed. But it doesn't mean it isn't already obvious. Fans argue "Hinata loves Naruto" "Sakura loves Sasuke" so why is it that Naruto is suddenly the exception? He's the main character. His romantic attentions should be clear at this point.

 

I've always found the most obvious piece of evidence that is undeniable was his reaction to Sakura's confession. He for a slight second did believe her words until he started adding the weirdness of the situation up and then denied her  loving him entirely. Naruto was not uncomfortable or even calm in sorting out her true intentions. As Sakura continued to express she loved him, Naruto got angry at her "lie". He had no reason to be angry at her unless he felt some extent of romantic love.

 

In reality, fans will believe what they want. But at least when Naruto confesses his love to Sakura they won't be able to deny the truth anymore.

good points . Humm i think we have flashbacks of narutos crush on sakura havent we. So we cant say its 5 years may be he had a crush before that.

 He's the main character. His romantic attentions should be clear at this point.

I ve tried that they say then why did kishi bring hinata in to it why give her special moments like in chunin exam,pain arc, even in the recent war . As kishi has given her those moments the resolution would be nh canon. I said that was just to make the story more dramatic. But they didnt agree. I said that narutos feelings for sakura is far more devloped but they didnt agree so i left the conversation

I don’t think Kishi made all those Hinata moment in the war to bring more drama in her character. He did that to close her character as a side character in my opinion. If you look the War Arc in an objective view, you will see that Hinata is not the only one who got the spotlight. Every side character got its closure. Ino, Shikamaru and Choji with Asuma and their father, Neji with Naruto, Hinata and his uncle (somewhat), and Hinata with Naruto and Neji. You see the common point between those closure, each of them concern the most important bond in their side character story. During her important moment in chapter 615, it wasn’t a romantic moment, it was her closure moment, she wanted to be useful to Naruto (chapter  559) and what did she do in 615 ? She helped him when he was on the verge of surrender.

 

I really don’t understand all those proclamation of romantic chapter for 615, the only thing that could have been romantic was the handholding, but even there, we see at the end of the chapter that Naruto is transferring his chakra to Hinata and in the next chapter, he instantly release her hand and began to grab every character’s hand to do the same. So at the end, it wasn’t romantic, at least on Naruto’s side, it was just a friendship moment.  

 

So my advice is to not pay attention to those who say the War Arc was focused on Hinata. It was focused on side character with a little more on Hinata and InShikaCho.

But next Arc will surely be focused on Team 7, which means Sakura (and Naruto and Sasuke), and I’m sure that at this point the Hinata deal will be over. I don’t know why but I smell a rejection coming at the end of this War Arc, and it’s on our favor.

they dont understand that. They just keep on saying it as romantic moments. So i stopped debating with them already.

Lol. That's a good one. If the series were to be in a sarcastic way, it will be something like that.

I'm trying to convince myself that next chapter is going to have some NS stuff, but what if... you know, Kishi decides to troll us again? XD

Happy belated Holidays, everyone!!

Well, if no NS stuff next chapter, it could be in other next few chapters or a bit later.

 

Kishi can make no one other than Gaara know about Naruto the next chapter, and make the others know after a chapter or two or more. He can choose that option.

I meant what if we see Hinata next chapter... Pain Arc v.2
I'm okay with no romantic NS stuff next few chapters, anyway... but now it's the best time to throw in some NS moments (considering Sakura is one of the few people who knows what's going to happen to a jinchuriki after Tail Beast extraction).

You should read my post on that note.
