At this point, it's starting to seem that Shikamaru is willing to do whatever it takes to protect the village or the world. Even if that means manipulating Naruto's feelings by using Sakura.

oh god that'lll just break his heart T_T!!! </3

I think so too, it sound like he would do anything too. But, it just strange that he would use Sakura to do that.

Oh ,please I can feel pity, if I want. No one has that right to tell me, what I can, and can't do.

To me, It sounds like the Sakura fans , that that thinks she can do no wrong are on this thread, bashing her and the confession. Say it sound so fake, saying it not a true confession ectt.

You should be happy we got the confession.

She was just saying you don't have to feel pity, not that you can't. You have every right to feel pity and no one can tell you what you can and can't do, yes, that's true for you and for all of us. Cupcake chan was simply stating her opinion as you are to yours and I am to mine. It's all good, a'right? :]

I for one am glad we got a confession but what most of us aren't liking is how this confession turned out, you know?

Guys I say we take a chill pill cause we seem to be starting to get a bit too worked up... we're kind of basing this off of this currant chapter (of course) but hey, we have no idea what's gonna happen in the next. Who knows what can happen? What I think is our questions will be answered in time so come on, bring on the love. <3

The page where she says, "I Like You", if you follow the general principle of where you eyes move when you lie, looks like it's a lie (eyes shift to the left and down).

The page where she says, "Forget about the promise", that's the same look when I lie to my cousins about something or like when a Mom lies about taking the kid to the toy store when he's actually going to the dentist.


But that's looking at this chapter as it's own separate entity.


It's also a case of too soon too fast in Kiba's mind. He basically was like to Ino, "Why are you crying". But yet Sakura seemingly got over it so fast since Ino cried.

Is it really that strange? I think Shikamaru knows that the ONLY person that even has a chance of stopping Naruto from going after Sasuke, besides Sasuke himself, is Sakura.

[Freakazoid]

So, ...

We can easily conclude that Sakura is lying, plus we can easily conclude that Sakura is telling the truth. Naruto can easily be calling bullsh** on the entire confession, or just calling bullsh** on the parts about Sasuke. The reactions of those around them vary and we can't really get any good motives behind their reactions.

Basicaly, I have no clue still.

Just did some Relaxing s








Sorry about getting worked up Cupcake Chan ^^..

I am just going to laugh at all of the people, who thought it was Sakura, if it turned out to be true.


It wouldn't freak me out, she did have that lazy look like Shikamaru's thought.

lol page 12...he realized that something wasn't right. She said Sasuke at least 10 times lol...Remember that next chapter can really turn things around. We don't know Sakura's reaction, and the fact that Naruto didn't took the opportunity to start a relationship with his long time crush...also Sakura seems completely out of character, and he can tell that this is a forced confession. Other than that, there is something here that is really, really strange...why would Danzo on page 3 asked his subordinate to take his right eye, and gauge it into him...and then he said that he will be asking for his body...i don't know if you guys have realized, but i don't think Danzo is human...i think his right eye is controlling him...as an inanimate corpse...i think the same thing with Madara, i think his other eye is the real eyes of Madara, and the body he is using is that of Obito...there is something not right here...

And back to Sakura's confession, page 13, he noticed Sai...and he clearly got angry, after all Sai was the only one with Naruto when he got beaten up, and he was the only one who asked Naruto as to why he never told Sakura how he felt...Sakura hasn't even realized that she likes Naruto...her confession is based solely on guilt, she cares for Naruto, but she doesn't love him, or at the very least she hasn't realized it yet. She must realize it, otherwise it is built behind guilt, and a lie, plus Naruto didn't say i hate liars, he said i hate people who lie to themselves.

I hope you realize that the last part of what you said is pretty much anti-narusaku. One of their arguments if im correct is that Sakura is guilted into loving Naruto. This isn't true, Sakura has been developing feelings for Naruto all along, she probly only started feeling guilt at Sai's confession of Naruto's feelings. But its her care and love (not guilt) that made her want to personally talk to Naruto. Right her, Sakura is truly giving up on Sasuke and choosing Naruto. Though the confession may be a little wishy-washy right now, she knew Naruto was hurting. She probly felt desperate and knew she had to do something to take his pain away.

[Strangelove]

Guys. Me and my friend were talking about it and it's still WAY TOO strange for us. Sakura isn't like that. But you know who's smart enough to use that to manipulate Naruto or something?

Shikamaru.

He was also the one that was the spokesman for Rookie Nine, he said it. It also makes me wonder what the hell Lee is doing there. Shikamaru is smart enough to know that, that's what Naruto wanted to hear. He was there for the PoaL.

Our theory is that Shikamaru has henged into Sakura, and Sakura hanged to Lee. It would keep Sakura's plate clean AND it would explain why Lee freaked out (he saw them HUG for pete's sake, and did nothing) and was blushing, sweating, and facepalming. Also might be the reason Naruto noticed something was wrong.

The hug she gives him this chapter is completely different from before. She only uses one arm and the smile she gives when she asks why he's angry is GUILTY.

Just..something to ponder on.

If that happens...ill lol big time.

[Cupcake-chan]

It's okay... I hadn't had my dinner yet so I was a bit worked up too XD

[kyuubi29]

one thing to add againest the rising of sasusaku, is the fact that shes on board with the others on the whole killing sasuke plan, what do you guy think of that?

[RyrineaHaruno]

It's okay... I hadn't had my dinner yet so I was a bit worked up too XD

Huggles Cupcake Chan ^^>.

[Cupcake-chan]

^ huggs back XD

[Dreamer]

Well everything relating about Naruto and Sakura has been pretty much covered through this thread and the spoilers thread, but I just point out a few words of my own that already been said:

1. Sakura blushed when she told Naruto "I love you" and couldn't look at him just like any other girl who truly loves a guy or vise versa would do.

2. She blushed again after hugging Naruto and further confessing, more brawny points for her truth to loving Naurto.

3. It was obvious that when she mentioned Sasuke and closed her eyes, Naruto new she was lying about that part of giving up on Sasuke.

I don't think the next chapter will be a make/or break knowing how Sakura blushed and reacted when mentioning her love for Naruto. Sakura is just going to have to further prove Naruto like Naruto had showed her throughout the course of Part 2 on how much he loves her or kiss him and admit she would like to have Sasuke back but she love Naruto for realz.

Did anyone find Tsuchikage's name "Ryoutenbin No Oonoki" a mouthful name as in weird ?

I also wonder what Fuu meant by Danzou may want his body soon? (theirs goes the Danzou=Madara theory again)

This is indeed the biggest cliffhanger chapter we have every had! Please don't disappoint us Kishi!

[catsi563]

Hmmm Im trully intrigued by that possibility.

I dont think it is, but the possibility explains a number fo things including why lees there in the first place, and that line about a womans heart being fickle. thats somewhat similar to the line Shikaku told to Shikamaru when he asked why his dad put up with his bossy mom.

also note that Shikamaru is the only one missing from the rookie 9 and team guy when their talking in the flashback. Its entirely possible that Shika could have concocted this scheme to give Sakura an exucse to hear narutos feelings out loud for herself.

intriguing

Im actually thinking that maybe possible O_O

LOL that actually made me think. ._. Shikamaru could be a possibility but I think it's highly unlikely... it just doesn't seem like it would happen, you know? Although, I could be wrong, you never know. Well, 'cept for Kishi of course.

Yay, RyrineaHaruno and Cupcake chan! 8D

Anyways,

Back to discussion!

I came straight here after reading it to see all of your reactions. You didn't disappoint. =P


My interpretation:

Sakura is telling Naruto the truth about her feelings for him, but she's embellishing. She is lying about not caring about Sasuke, though I can believe that she at least doesn't love him anymore. The reason she is telling Naruto all of this is because she fears for him - not because she feels guilty. That alone is enough to prove to us, the readers, that what she says is true. If she didn't care about him as she says she does, or if she cared for Sasuke more, then she wouldn't be doing that.

For Naruto's part, he recognizes a hard sell when he sees it. Unfortunately for him, he interprets that to mean she's lying about all of it, probably because of some self-worth issues he has. He honestly can't believe that Sakura would ever feel for him that way, no matter how much he may want it.


Where this goes from here will be very interesting to see. I'm really hoping they work things out, because if Naruto ends up hurting her due to a misunderstanding (or vice versa) then that would really kind of suck.
