That's sad :/

I kind of like ecchi, harem and comedy but it depends on the character i tend to dislike those type of manga when the main character sucks for self insert purposes.
Like on To-Love Ru.

I like Narusaku because I think it is the most likely final pairing and has the most buildup throughout the series. I like how they have developed throughout the series especially the beginning of part two which I believe was the best time for Narusaku.  Still I have been rather disappointed lately in it. It just does not seem to matter anymore. We just had the perfect event for a Narusaku moment with Naruto dying and Sakura there and we did not get anything significant. Yes we got CPR and Sakura wanting to save Naruto but no interaction.

 

Recently I hardly get any indication Naruto thinks of Sakura any different than the rest of his friends (yes we get the girlfriend comment but that was sort of a joke initiated by someone else and besides that we never see Naruto thinking about Sakura.). The thing is Naruto and Sakura hardly interact anymore. The reason I like this pairing more than any other in this series is they had the most development through mutual interaction. I don't really care about the other pairings but the lack of interaction recently is glaring.

 

Sakura recently starting healing Naruto when he was unconscious and as soon as he waked up he left without so much as acknowledging her much less having meaningful interaction. All recent Narusaku moments have been Sakura thinking about Naruto but not the other way around. This is getting annoying because without them ever interacting it is hard to really feel anything for this pairing anymore so I really hope eventually Kishi let's them actually have meaningful interaction.

i think that skipped over recovery part will break the other pairings so kishi didn't want to do it.. the sage did say he can't help naruto to go out of the limbo, only people on the outside can.. she surely did something to bring him back.

I was talking about that and while I don't want to curse by predicting, all I can say it can be either good or disappointing. Two ways only. I feel like disappointment would only valid to your fandom ego, though I can understand if art is lacking. But we will see.

Whether you want to believe it as a joke or not, it still shows he thinks differently of her. I doubt he thinks Shikamaru is ''more or less'' his girlfriend, along with the others. I'm sure they will interact more once we get out of this arc and on to the Sasuke vs. Naruto fight. 

 

But then again, this is just my two sense of it.

Ok. Strangely enough, I feel like heart pounding faster. Lol. It's odd, but maybe because I don't want to see people here to rewind and start from the bottom, which most likely be "heroine" talk. I mean I am used to it but it's gotten stale, old, and so on. It's like coming out with top 10 list, everyone won't be happy with the number 1 pick, so they will complain until you just come out and yell the crap out of them. I guess what I'm saying is if it's what you want, that's good. If it's not, acknowledge it without a complaint.

Either way its gonna make or break NH's argument about "NH becoming canon because they were holding hands on the volume cover"

 

What I'm saying is that if we get an NS cover then there goes yet another NH argument if not they'll use the volume argument even more.

Sakura eating Naruto's hearth   :wot:

 

The argument that i'm annoyed the most is that NS is just a great "friendship" but somehow SS and NH is "love" like no other (especially SS :facepalm: )   it makes me  :wallbash:

The argument I'm most annoyed with is that NS "officially" died during the confession because Naruto "hates people who lie to themselves"

Well either that one or "NS only has a chance because Sasuke is an outlaw"

Tell me about it :twitch: like Sasuke was totally in love with her in P1 , he didn't take her with him back than because he loved her so much and didn't want to see her hurt :zaru:  .

 

Also lets forget that Naruto can forgive to Nagato & Obitto especially Obitto the one who destroyed his childhood  but he can't forgive Sakura for trying to protect him :facepalm: And if any paring died back then it was SS .

The argument I hate the most is NaruSaku is a "sibling" like relationship. Yeah, like I would totally blush and feel happy that my sister will feed me ramen. Or as if I would act and talk that my sister is my girlfriend. Oh and what about Naruto trying to peek at Sakura in the hot springs?

Just the thought of peeking my own sister in the hot springs is enough for me to puke my guts out. Ewwwww.

Recently I hardly get any indication Naruto thinks of Sakura any different than the rest of his friends (yes we get the girlfriend comment but that was sort of a joke initiated by someone else and besides that we never see Naruto thinking about Sakura.).

I think the reason why you hardly see any Naruto -> Sakura interactions is because you read it weekly. Naruto -> Sakura moments show only once in 50~100 chapters so by the time we come to the newest chapter, we forget the previous moments. If you read the Naruto in manga volume from the beginning till the recent chapters in one go, you can see it, or try reading the NaruSaku moment compilation made from the fans.

As for why the number of Naruto -> Sakura decreased, you have to remember that in part one, Naruto was not binded by his promise. So he felt free to express his affections to the girl he likes. However, in part two, his inability to fulfill the promise made him think he was unworthy to express Sakura his feelings. It saddens me to think how hard it must be for a guy who likes to show his affections, is now forced to keep it to a bare minimum. What makes it more devastating is that he is suppressing his feelings while the girl he loves is right next to him smiling at him, caring about him, and giving most of her attention to him. (Sai did the right thing by telling Sakura that her promise is a curse.)

Anyway, that's my take on why you hardly feel like you see any Naruto -> Sakura interactions.

I totally agree with you 100000%. It's also my most hated argument haha!

Seems to me that in the shipping world, shipping a guy and a girl as "siblings/family" or as a "brotp" is almost always more of a dismissal of their relationship rather than really liking them together as friends or whatever. Of course it's an opinion but it still makes me want to scream out how wrong it is haha.

Yes, despite i never understood that, because the promise was still valid, only if Sasuke was killed is that it would fail but while the promise still had validity there was no reason for him to feel unworthy of her because he didnt fulfilled the promise but he didnt failed either.
Maybe Kishimoto chose this way because if Naruto was like on part 1 freely expressing his feelings probably NS would have been canon ages ago.
But what saddens me it's not the fact that Naruto cant express his feelings but the fact that Naruto is in love with her and wants to win her over but does nothing.
If wasnt Sai she would probably never knew that Naruto had feelings for her.

At least I can feel sorry for the NH fans that they don't have enough interactions to even be considered a sibling.

I think he doesn't want to win her over when the option of Sasuke is unavailable. It's like Stockholm Syndrome, where the victim falls in love with her kidnapper because she has no choice, but if she wasn't kidnapped by this guy she wouldn't have loved him in a million years. It's when the option of Sasuke becomes available, we readers could be assured that Sakura's choice is for real. If NS becomes canon before that, some readers are going to assume she chose Naruto because Sasuke wasn't there.
