if she already knew there would've been no point to all the flashbacks and the shocked look with the crying

[ciardha]

I have met people wondering why Ranma 1/2 and Love Hina are shonen manga or why Inu-Yasha is labeled like a shonen manga. Because they were published in magazines publish shonen mangas, and their target are young boys. It doesn't matter if they feature romance or action, but their target. It is so simple.

Yes, I've heard the same about Ah My Goddess and Maison Ikokku. They are/were seinen (men's) manga because they are/were published in men's manga magazines. Both are highly focused around romance. Americans manga readers also tend to have the misconception men's manga is made up entirely of porn or violent action stories like Golgo 13 or Lone Wolf and Cub. (The later is well written but rather depressing, but it will teach you some things about the Edo period samurai culture. I don't recommend Golgo 13 but I do think Lone Wolf an Cub is worth reading.)

i want to ask about something i cant understand :
why sakura didn't blushe when sai told her that naruto really lover her
(i believe that she was knowing that she loves naruto)

The situation didn't really allow for blushing or excitement over hearing that Naruto loved her. Tsunade was lying in a coma not a foot away, the village was being rebuilt after a massive attack, and right before hearing about Naruto's feelings Sai told her that the boy had gone and gotten himself beat up for Sasuke's sake. And it's not as if Sai slipped the topic gently into the conversation--he brought it directly to her attention to make her understand that the PoaL was causing Naruto pain. Sakura's reaction, to me, was far more gratifying than if she'd blushed. While she expressed shock at hearing about Naruto's feelings, she was at least aware enough to immediately connect all that he'd done for her to his feelings and then openly weep because of it.

and also i see some one who said :that if sakura loves romantically naruto she would blushe around him during the developments btween them in part 2
(and to know i watch the anime and i see them make her blushe aruond him in a filler)

Does Sakura really need to become Hinata to show that she's romantically inclined to a boy? So she doesn't blush every time something happens between them--all the better IMO. Both Naruto and Sakura have shown repeatedly throughout Part 2 that they care for each other enough as (relatively) mature equals that they're not reduced to blushing kids with a case of puppy love. *shrug* They blush around each other some, just not all the time or every time they interact--enough to show that they do get butterflies, but aren't solely caught in a childish case of "Oh they're cute".

Romantic events even in the West does not necessarily involve the female blushing around the male.

It involves good conversation, friendship, and getting to know one another.

Exactly. They have lightly blushed several times around each other in part 2. Sakura does so when she sees him for the first time in 2 1/2 years, Naruto does so when he realizes Sakura is going to feed him in 343, they both do so during Sakura's confession scene- both are at the beginning, and Sakura does each time in 469 when she talks about her romantic feelings for Naruto to him, etc...

Well, I also think this happen because their romance is more mature, a reason for certain persons don't understand it, is because some persons think that in a manga for two characters being interested in each other, they have to act all silly and akward, but it's not like that about Naruto and Sakura, they are used with each other presence, and fell comfortable with it, wich is another strong signal, after all, a couple that acts all embarassed means they are not very used with one another yet.

and acting embarrassed or awkward is something Naruto really doesn't do, since he literally blurts out everything that's on his mind.

When your a child that is...looked down upon and considered immature by fellow peers. But when you grow older it starts to become useful, as it proves confidence.

Well shonen is more focus on action it's always action the top priority and romance second. That's why there's little romance in shonen genre manga, however if there is a romance scene in a shonen it should be very obvious to see it (469 Sakura's confession) that was a romantic scene with what Sakura told Naruto even if she wanted to remove the burden of the POTL to him she used her confession as a bonus to back up her reason for coming. I'm sure Sakura must have been thinking "I will free Naruto from the promise and since now that I know he really loves me and I love him too I will confess to him but I'm not good at these kind of things."

dude T_T... you took the words right from me... i am soo emotional...lol... but yes you did take the words right outa my mouth
NS FTMFW... wait it is thewin!!!XD lol.... but still NS is inevitable

Come on guys we can't let our faith in our favorite couple wane, if we do that, then how can we call ourselves NaruSaku fans? We gotta stay strong not matter what, and have a good amount of patience for that manner, but still never give in! I know we'll win this in the end!

well i really think with that scroll they lost (the kisame one) they will probally have to relocate or go back to the village.
they might meet up with sakura :o from there. maybe since Naruto keeps hurting himself (with his new mode) he will need a medical minja!!

I highly doubt that the team 7 love triangle drama is over, I just think that Narusaku will come out on top.

humm I've been thinking about what Sai told Sakura about Naruto's feelings. Until now, I still think that it's not really true because I'd prefer if Naruto'd say his feelings on his own. By Sai's telling, I felt...I didn't sense any romantic things when Sakura knew it. So I lost idea about the climax of telling-her-(Sakura)-the-truth and I still don't have idea on how they could end together romantically.
What if Sai hadn't told Sakura? Would it make changes to recent events?

But as far as we know naruto doesn't know that Sakura is aware of his feelings remember Sai didn't tell him, it seems clear to me that he's not ready to tell her how he feels , remenber he neither denied or confirmed his feelings when Sakura asked him, and I excepct him to be upfront on the matter only after the Sasuke issue is resolved, the whole point of the flasback wasn't to show Naruto's;apparent feelings for Sakura but why he couldn't confess to her . so while I do agree with you about the sai's issue I still think that naruto will confess to her at one point. I have a hard time believing that Kishi will put an end to ns without having Naruto the main character express his feelings on the matter so a confrontation's of everyone's feelings is coming certainly during the final fight with Sasuke. I'm really not worried, the drama is far from over.
