Personally, until Naruto and Sasuke fight, I don't think we are going to see Naruto or Sakura make their feelings clear for each other. There will still be NS moments just nothing definitive. But what I think we will see is Sakura slowly getting over Sasuke.

As for Sasuke's redemption, based on Hashirama's story and what he said about shinobi, it doesn't seem like Sasuke will change. Now even if Sasuke is redeemed, he can't just return to konoha. By attacking the Kages he stepped over a line and became an enemy of every village. If he is redeemed, the only thing he can do to repay Naruto is to sacrifice himself. Naruto will feel guilty because Sasuke died and the only person who can comfort Naruto concerning Sasuke is Sakura.

I think it's better instead Naruto killing Sasuke, Sasuke sacrifices himself.

I think there's more to Lee's love for Sakura than just her appearance. When Lee first met Sakura, it was when the teams were gathering for the Chuunin Exams. Sakura was doubting her ability and looked rather depressed until Sasuke complimented her analytical ability.

I found it funny how they made Sakura blush in the anime, before getting angry about the super strenght stuff. ^^

To some it doesn't matter how consistent Naruto's feelings for Sakura have been, now that he grabs another girl's hand it's all invalid.

The irony is that the bigger version of the volume 64 cover shows that Naruto and Hinata are looking back at Neji while holding hand and not at each other. To me that goes to mean that the hand holding is more about solidarity in the face of tragedy than anything romantic. Unfortunately a good number of people are taking it as a statement from Naruto that he now likes another girl, despite no foreshadowing of it possibly happening.

I was just sharing a great scene with you all. But I do agree. their sense of logic is amaizing.

I believe the cover shows clear that they are not looking at each other but they also not looking at Neji, I see this moment has Hinata lowest moment and Naruto's act of solidarity, is sad because I honestly feel Hinata got over Neji's death too damn fast. Anyway that is my personal opinion so I could be wrong.

Oh man, I am late for all these conversations, but yeah, I agree. If anything, it will be the same as Hashirama/Madara, only Naruto will spare Sasuke's life by living his own, only to find out he has his own team, which may make Naruto happy that at least he will never be alone. The main problem is that Sasuke doesn't acknowledge his old team as a family. If he does, then you can say mission complete. I think that's what Naruto is hoping for before him going on his own. When you look back at their last conversation, Sasuke completely dismissed this and called himself an ex-member. It's one of those moments where you can say you may not be part of it physically, but in your heart, you will always be one of them.

I do agree about him not returning physically. Yamato may or may not die, but Sai is there to stay. Even Kakashi gave a sealed approval. Lastly, I do agree about Sakura with Team 7. It's always been like that before Kage Summit Arc. She was doing it more for reunion and Naruto. It's just that the moment she has to go for the kill, her old (buried) emotions return and she can't keep it buried forever. Instead, she must get over it once and for all, because it's unhealthy. She is known to bury emotions and not realizing it. So yes, now she has a new battle within her: love. If she can get over with Sasuke, she is ready.

I do think it's possible for Sakura to fall in love with Naruto before the final battle, but the absolute canon won't happen until the end, as in Naruto's confession. It happened in FMA, where you got two people in love with each other but they don't settle it until the very end. Is it possible? It is. Will it happen? That remain to be seen.

Old buried emotions?
she never buried those emotions she tried to hide it in order to kill Sasuke.
LOL.
What did not convince Naruto was pratically yesterday she was crying hard because Sasuke joined Akatsuki if it's not on the same day.

Is more of what should happen and who deserves who more rather than what is actually going in the story.

I always see the cover as "Fight through the pain." Probably because we know that when Neji died, everyone within K11 couldn't believe they lost a friend, especially the same age level. But they can fight it and acknowledge the sacrifices these people put through in war and fight as one. But that's just me. I see it like how Fairy Tail does it with hand holding: power of one.

I guess so. Either way, she has to get rid of it.

Actually we can play the deserve game just as well as they do. Naruto had done more for Sakura in 5 years of his life than anyone else has. He is constantly there for her and protects her, keeps her happy and safe, he burried all his sadness and pain for her. What has Hinata done for him? NOTHING. So we win the deserving game.

I got 3 question for all of you :

Prior to 615 what were Naruto's feelings towards Hinata?

Did Naruto's feelings towards Hinata change in 615?

If Naruto's feelings towards Hinata changed in 615, how did they change?




Some of you may be asking me why I'm asking these question. My answer is simple, right now the NaruHina fandom is basically 51% 615 and 49% the rest of their shipping.

Bolded: Limit herself??? Thats one of the problems with Sakura she holds back when she shouldn't do. This kind of relates to her wanted to do the right things for naruto. Holding back isn't helping her accomplish this

I meant that as a tsundere character, Sakura limits her open feelings with Naruto, in cases of grave concern she displays this much more towards him, basically crying for him. In normal situations though, she didn't take the intiative to him all too often, though usually in other cases such as offering to feed him (when his arm was injured from the rasenshurkien) those are where she took the action in being more open towards him.

In the scene where Naruto was acciedently posioned, she was about to talk to him but this moment got interrupted when he fainted, its true that there are many moments they have that could last longer but something always interrupted or got cut off, like him saying not to worry about him once they finished off fake itachi, waking up before yamato finished his sentence, Sai interrupting the feeding offer, and the posion, its kinda a running theme for drama and in another way, a gag to basically cut it off for a time before the next interaction.

As for one of Sakura's goals, doing something big for Naruto, one of the things she does is that she struggles and does not know what to do for him, yet she continues to try. Basically what many including me speculate is that Sakura will do something of incredible importance for him. She wanted to help him bring back Sasuke, try to learn wood style so she could help protect naruto from kurama's power, tried to relieve him of his promise because of the suffering she felt she caused and wanted to make amends, even aid him in these momumental tasks he usually gets placed mainly on himself. This late in the war, Sakura is still showing that, basically determined that no matter what happens she will do something for him or with him, basically she wants to aid him no matter what. Sakura not getting any recent screentime or shown with the nine tails chakra enchancements has led some to believe she may get that thing to lead her into a moment when she fulfills this, helping Naruto in some way only she can. Even though Yamato says it does not matter how big or small, she just wants to fulfill this in anyway she can.

1) "I do have good friends to rely on. Thank you, Hinata." A appreciation as a friend. Much like Shikamaru helping him understanding about love ones and moving on to help newer generation.

2) No. He appreciated the help from her and Neji. Kuruma made an example and clear explanation to why he should not let them die in vain.

3) If it did and it's more romance focus, well, nothing has changed, which doesn't look anything special. That said when it comes to friends, it's the same feeling. He only takes note and go with it. Otherwise, perhaps Shikamaru should have been his best friend by now, but here we are.

Too bad NH fans will disregarded it in a heartbeat since it's filler even if Pierot KNOWS very well Naruto loves Sakura.
