In my point of view, she already loves Naruto from part 1.
She says she loves Sasuke, wich is true, but because of that, she can't realize the nature of her feelings for Naruto.
And that's why she makes incorrect interpretation of those feelings.
She never tried to see Naruto other as a friend.
Yamato tried tell her the truth.
The truth ! Yes, this word is really important in Yamato's sentence... it shows that the feeling that they're talking about is something hidden/unkown.
And that's why Databook is needed :
Sakura doesn't know the nature of her feelings for Naruto yet...
Of course everyone could see her ambigous feelings for him, even in part 1, but, this Databook confirms our interpretation.
Yes, Sakura really has unkown feelings for him, wich means that she would be already in love with him without realizing it.
Love is something that you can't explain in words, this counts in the real world too, not only in Naruto.
What kind of feeling would be difficult to realize other than love?
Friendship ? Sibling love ?
Those are NH argument, yeah...
OF COURSE it is love!
And Sakura is about to learn what real love means. Yes, because she already knows what being love with someone means, but... what true love means, that... she doesn't know it yet, and that is what she's feeling for Naruto deep in her heart, without realize it... TRUE LOVE!
Those feelings will help her being helpfull towards Naruto, like she always wanted to be, and that is what Yamato tried to explain her :
It's not what you DO for Naruto that's important... it's how strongly you FEEL for him that counts...
When Sakura will use Yamato's tips, she'll shine for real.
Please wait the return of the battlefield's chapters. Be patient, I'm sure we will be rewarded from Kishimoto soon enough.
NaruHina is just there for suspense and Hinata's developpement.
THIS!!!
This is the TRUTH we,a dn the naruto fanbase must accept!
@Dkey
Lol that cracked me up, little do the NH'ers know, but we, and kishi consider their "pairing" if thats what you call it DEAD
