I'been wondering for quite something about the Japanese speaking fans. I know between this site and NF at lease 14 people who have at lease a full understanding of Japanese but because of a resent declaration I think one of them percentage is smaller than the rest, anyway it goes like this.
You Tube
1 Tokyo Kid NH
NF
5 neutral fans.
3 Narusaku but one is on this site.
1 SS
NS.com
4 Users but one is on Naruto forum.
Now this makes me wonder 2 thing.
With exception of ramenanmitsu and 六道仙人 is there any other users here who as a good understanding in Japanese also users in NF.
Aside from the neutral fans why most of the Japanese fans who participate in the Western forums seems to favor the idea of NS instead of it being a even.
Please don't get me wrong I'been having these thoughts for a long time, I guess the curiosity is killing me.
Now take into consideration this reply is based purely on me guessing and not having a clue what i'm talking about. I think the reason for this is because Hinata is what you would consider your typical Japanese nobility princess, she's kind and polite to everyone, has her dark locks of hair and even has the hime cut...so she appeals more to the traditional Japanese bloke who likes traditional Japan and isn't interested in the western world. Sakura on the other hand has a more western look, with her fair skin light hair colour and green eyes, she wears a skirt, can talk her mind, has no issue with beating boys up, she's basically a tomboy and a typical teenage girl, a typical western teenage girl, so she appeals to those who are more open to the western world, so they tend to explore the WWW beyond...um...i'm sure there is more than this famous 4chan I always hear about.
Now if you checked if all these charactors were also big fans of Ino as well you'd have been in for a really big surprise...lol
This theory was bought to you by our wonderful people at preconception.
Though seriously I have no idea, maybe NaruHina is not as popular in Japan as we thought, or maybe NaruSaku isn't popular and they decided to broaden their search to find more fans or maybe it's just a coincidence.
