Well, it's technically still Monday in some parts of the Americas. Their respective Western coasts essentially are the last parts to enter the new day.

So that's what's going to trigger Naruto vs. Sasuke, huh?

although I shouldn't have translated that final sentence so... it's just like he gave up and defeated or something like so...

Regarding the VIZ translation they are correct using past tense, however they were wrong in the way they translated.

"But I tried my best" would have been correct if the Japanese was 「出来るだけのことをやったんだ」. This would make the SS/NH claim that Naruto has given up on Sakura have more sense. It implies that things didn't go well but he tried his best. The way VIZ translated puts a limitations on how much Naruto could do AND show that he's satisfied with the results because he's tried his best.

The raw isn't like that. I really don't know how well I can explain in English since I haven't learn grammar but I'll try my best.

The raw did not say 「出来るだけのことをやったんだ」(I tried my best), they said 「そこそこ頑張ってたんだ」(I have tried quite alright/fairly/so-so). This is very different from ~best that is in VIZ. 「そこそこ」means fairly, so-so, a bit better than average.

The raw does not give limitations on how much he can do, nor show that he is satisfied with his results because he has done his best, unlike the VIZ version. You cannot read any implication that he has given up from the raw version.

I hope I was able to explain the difference between VIZ and raw, and how Naruto's words doesn't imply that he has given up.

Lunch break is over. Gotta go!

[redrose3443]

So the translation is not really " I've tried my best.", but " I've been trying."? That would make more sense. Naruto's been trying, but not everything has gone the way his mother wanted it. i.e. Sakura loving Sasuke at first, Naruto being terrible at school work, and so many things getting in the way of him being hokage.

If Kishimoto doesn't want  NS moment at least Kakashi and Sakura together as T Kakashi they have to Happy Birth Day to him. But I am dreaming knowing Kishimoto the only person will congratulate him that one is going to be Iruka, then there kills my hopes.

Yeah that's the one thing I hate about how Kishi treats NS. Sakura is his future wife and the one he's going to end up with and supposedly one of the most important people in his life

 

Yet in times of need where Naruto needs support rarely is it from Sakura instead its from Iruka, or Jiraiya or hell kittening Kankuro for that matter. 

 

I love the way in the Rescue Gaara arc how Sakura has a flashback of her as a kid noticing how alone Naruto was and wanting to say something, that was great it shows that she was one of the few people in the world to understand what he was going through in the manga its just sort of like "you have a huge burden that made you alone your whole life? well that sucks moving on" 

 

Lol, look, another callback 

Parallel

I'm pretty sure Kushina's line was a callback to Jiraiya's in chapter 245 when Sakura was flirting with him and Naruto was too dumb to catch on (she even kind of says what Jiraiya's thinking word for word)

I see it more like we are surrounded with doors and one of them leads to the actual destination. I don't even think this is part of Kishi's plan. Well, it may be, but not for, "Hinata can be the one!" but more like, "Are Naruto and Sakura together!?" I didn't see Japanese fans saying anything else.

 

That too.

Yeah pretty much , but that's clear now  it seems that he was talking about till this moment not that he give up in English the best way to translate that is the MS way "I've been trying really hard " that makes the most sense and its very much close to the meaning of the raw and it doesn't make Naruto like he has given up which is so OOC but that so far he's been trying and has yet to accomplish those wishes, but still Kishi's confusing dialog  starts to really pissing me of  I know he like to do this to us but we are near the end so enough is enough "sign" .

[Hiraishin]

@ramenanmitsu thank you for taking the time to clear that up!

Isn't "I have tried quite alright/fairly/so-so" present perfect, not past tense?

Yes, it's present perfect.

Sakura is the only girl that is like Kushina and as great as her. Naruto have seen Sakura's abilities and he was very impressed. There's no way that Naruto will fall in love with a girl that she only encountered a few times. That love would be so shallow. It will not work since it doesn't have a strong foundation to begin with.

I think it is only right to say that Naruto only "tried quite alright" when it comes to girls. Heck, he hasn't even confess to the girl he loves how can it be "I've tried my best" like he has done everything he can and that he can't take it anymore.

Why will Hinata come in the picture when in the first place he hasn't made a SINGLE move to get her.

 

If it is Hinata, then this is what should Naruto say:

Naruto: Tell mom that I found a girl, though not like her, but still I got her! I didn't even try ANYTHING!

Minato: I'm proud of you son! You're a real man. *cried tears of joy

 

P.S sorry if anyone was offended by my post. I just wanted to let it out.
