Do you think we will ever get to know more about Sakura's parents? On her outfit she has what looks kind of like a clan symbol but there's nothing else to support that. I wonder because it would tell us alot about Sakura, how her childhood was mainly. It's not really needed but I think we should know more about Sakura if she's going to be with Naruto. I wonder because we always see the rest of the rookie's parents from time to time, but we never see any of squad 7's parents. If her parents died too than Naruto and Sakura could have more in common, understand each other more. It would kind of suck if everyone on squad 7's parent's died young. I mean really, that would be depressing.

Well they are supposed to be in the new movie but from what we know about them,they are civilians. Sakura doesn't come from a ninja family like the others do.

I would certainly hope so. I don't really care if it isn't important to the plot. It just seems weird that we know next to nothing about our main heroine's family. I don't think her parents are dead or anything like that though, since Sakura mentioned during her confession to Sasuke that she had both friends and family and she also mentioned in chapter 3 that if she did half the things Naruto did, her parents would ground her or something along those lines. Still, I would very much like to see Sakura's parents, mostly because I am interested in seeing how they might have influenced her in terms of personality. I have always had a feeling that Sakura's parents were very strict, in the sense that they wanted her to do good in school and always behave. That would certainly explain her bookworm-ish attitude and her split personality.

Personally I don't think that we will. Also at this point Sakura's childhood seems completly irrelavent (to me at least), but I'm pretty sure that they are both alive because I remember hearing somewhere that Sakura was the only member of Team 7 that didn't have any form a tragety (aside from the Nine-Tails attack of course).

We had a previous discussion of how Sakura's circle symbol was strangely familiar to the circle symbols Naruto acquires in full tail beast mode (the one where he gets a longcoat) which made him look like the Sage of Six Paths. We speculated how Sakura's symbol maybe had a connection to the Sage of Six Paths, even discussing the possibility of Sakura being the reincarnation of the Sage's wife as Naruto was the reincarnation of the Sage himself.

Yeah, I remember that. That was indeed an interesting theory. If it turns out to be true, I wonder what impact it will have on Sakura's role in the story, if any. I mean, will it just be like "Oh, I'm the reincarnation of the Sage's wife?! Cool..." or will it entail Sakura discovering or learning some sort of new awesome power?

speaking of Sakura's childhood wouldn't it be neat if this lil kid turned out to be Sakura



I know the child is probably too young but I thought it would be cool

I certainly hope Naruto isn't a reincarnation. I hate the reincarnation idea. So basically you were never yourself, just a reincarnation of somebody else, that's depressing as hell.

[ultranx]

No, if you are a reincarnation you are still yourself. It's not like Naruto is going to have his mind replaced by the sage and cease to exist you know. I mean for example Zack of the Secret Saturdays cartoon. He was the reborn version of some ancient villain but did he turn evil and have his mind replaced by the villain? Nope.

Adding on to this, Kagome from Inuyasha was the reincarnation of Kikyo and she didn't have her mind replaced nor did she become her. Hell, her NOT being Kikyo was one of the main focal points of the series. (Though the resemblance was mind-blowing)

I remember Kishi was once asked about Sakura's 'back-story' in an interview. He only said she's just "a normal girl". When I first read this I was disappointed since I love characters having lengthy back-stories (ex. all the x-men). But I think its actually an important that sakura is 'normal' with parents for the dynamic of team 7(mostly in part 1). I say this because Naruto and Sasuke were both orphaned and so when all three of them were put together on a team it created a kind of disconnect and tension between them and Sakura because she didn't understand what it was to not have parents or a hard childhood. She was always striving for Sasuke's attention but it always seemed that part of Sasuke's reasons for ignoring her was that 'she couldn't understand him'. Naruto and Sasuke where always pre-occupied with large ideas and pursuits while Sakura seemed vapid. Its contrast of character and contrast in any form creates interest. Of course she has since grown and changed a lot making for wonderful character development. I'd even say out of all the character's she has changed the most from the very begining of the series.

I certainly hope Naruto isn't a reincarnation. I hate the reincarnation idea. So basically you were never yourself, just a reincarnation of somebody else, that's depressing as hell.

I get your initial distaste but I'd beg to differ. Reincarnation specifically means you are still the same 'soul'.

Anyway there are an infinite interpretations of reincarnation. My favorite way its handled is in ATLA/LOK. Each Avatar is the same soul so they can communicate and gain knowledge from their past lives but each Avatar is very much an individual. Korra is nothing like Aang.

I agree, I forgot to mention avatar. It's basically the complete opposite if his idea of reincarnation. Plus, not to mention Kid Buu from Dragon Ball Z . Evil monster villain reincarnated as kid good guy. Is Naruto your first anime Brandon? Have you ever seen dbz? I mean the whole Uub being reincarnation thing was pretty important because otherwise Majuub wouldn't exist in GT(permanent fusion of Good Majin Buu and Uub). I mean the only reason they could fuse is because they were once one being like Kami and Piccolo. But yeah, Naruto being the reincarnation of the sage isn't really something big enough to be depressed about. It just means he's meant to do great things.

Not at all, you contain similar traits and image. But you're a completely different person that the person you're reincarnated to. I like the fact where kishi is taking naruto's character. Although this is the NS thread, so I'm not going to continue this here.

Does anyone have things to debate? I think we covered all the controversial topics here. At least those that involve Narusaku.

whatevs, doesn't have to be all heavenly romance.

If he's a reincarnation, it kinda reminds me of Avatar. Which is fine.

A lot of people would be disappointed and a lot of people wouldn't care. It's a pretty easy question to answer. What's next?

What if Naruto got together with Karin instead

What if Naruto got together with Karin instead

As long as Sakura doesnt get with the psycho, then I would be fine with that.

What if Naruto got together with Karin instead

It would be a sh*tty manga. I kinda want Sasukarin, cause of their clans. Highly unlikely, but I hope so. Naruto must be with Sakura, and no one else. He loves her and only her. I know other stories has performed this random pairings like Digimon, but if I know Kishi-sensei right, he's not the type. He's planned everything from the beginning. The least I can hope for is just a hint that he ended up with Sakura - for instance seeing his whiskered, pink-haired daughter(or son ) in the epilogue.
