You mean Sakura doesn't look like a trophy already? From what I can gather, Sakura and Naruto are already trophies in the eyes of most of the fandoms. To NH fans, Naruto is the trophy for Hinata because she "stayed strong" the entire time and never wavered. "Hinata deserves Naruto." Same could be said for Sakura to Sasuke.

I don't think you can stop some people from seeing Sakura like a trophy anymore than you can stop them from hating her.

You're talking about subjective views, like NH people saying that NH has more development than NS, i'm saying is stupid to for her to realize that Naruto is better on his fight with Sasuke when on her confession she already put both of them on a balance, and choose Naruto.

I'm saying is if she keeps on loving Sasuke, it's impossible to come with any scenario that has a relation with all her development she had, it doenst make sense for Kishimoto showing how many times that Sakura should love Naruto(though many characters(Sai, Yamato, Filler Ninja) and events(Muder issue, Naruto saving her and much more) when in the end, doesnt matter because all that needs is Naruto complimenting her foreheard, i'm saying basically is that Kishimoto doesnt need to downgrade NS to keep the pairing drama.
Because if he shows Sakura loving Sasuke then instead of hiding Sakura's feelings he's basically downgrading NS development to keep up with the other which is ridiculous.

Weren't you the one that stated that Sakura looks like a trophy because of it? Isn't that also a subjective view? In order for it to be an objective view, the other characters need to also feel the same way, but Naruto doesn't see Sakura as a trophy, so why should we? He doesn't see her as a prize to win in the end, but rather someone who he loves and cares about. He even says himself, he is not saving Sasuke to keep the promise he made to her or doing some heroic act so she can see him as this hero she wants to be with. He is doing it because he wants to save his friend and while yes, he wants Sakura to love him, he is not doing everything just for her acknowledgement.

If you want to be really technical, every time a story has the hero succeeds and gets the girl in the end she is a trophy, but now I am just splitting hairs.

You have a point though, always end up like that but what i'm saying specifically is how can she realize something that she already realized, what we can see on Sakura's conflict unilt 540 was the fact she still has feelings for Sasuke, we didnt knew if she wants to pursue a relationship with him, and moreover add the fact she was pretty sad about those feelings, it's stated and proved that if she could choose Naruto or Sasuke, she would choose Naruto, since when Sai told her that Naruto loves her then she faced a situation where a triangle love has been settled, where Naruto struggles and hides his feelings for her for her sake martyrizing himself, to bring back a guy that doesnt care about her at all.
If i could say anything about trophy, after all that kishimoto has been done is more likely to think that Naruto is a trophy for Sakura rather than Sakura being a trophy for Naruto.

 

Naruto did make anything to the relationship to go forward it was his friends Yamato and specially Sai who made the whole NS pass though the friendship zone.
The entire Ns development is basically Kishimoto telling Sakura that Naruto is the guy she should be in love and that her love for Sasuke is bad and selfish

Do you guys also think Naruto will die and get revived by Obito at the end or is it just me? LOL

Hey, I was saying Sakura will be the one to revive him only to get revived by Obito, but that was long time ago. Lol.

well, anyhow I have a feeling someone will die and get revived someway, I could never see Naruto dying at this point in the story because I feel all that development, emotion, and succeeding the ones before them will be for nothing if Naruto dies. Even if he does bring peace, itll still be useless to me and a bad ending.

How can the old generation surpass the previous one if Sakura will lose her love the same way that Tsunade lose hers and moreover Tsunade's wish was to Naruto succeed and become hokage and most importantly stay alive to not become just like Dan and that other kid who was similar to Naruto on looks.

Some of the best fan-art I've ever seen.   LadyGT is my favorite "fan-artist" though.

If he dies I hope it occurs similarly to the ending of that one particular OVA where Naruto is critically injured but he begins to stir whilst comforting Sakura who is grieving for him. Not only would it help to unveil how much Naruto's life truly means to Sakura, but if it were to occur at the end of Naruto's battle with Sasuke then her rushing to Naruto's side after both groups collapse from their injuries could be seen as Sakura choosing to place greater value in Naruto's place in her life than Sasuke. She would have ultimately chosen him.

 

Although considering the likelihood of Tobi's death and the availability of Rinne Tensei he may use it as a final act of redemption, similar to Nagato, and revive everyone who was killed in this war, including a potentially dead Naruto. After Kishi negated almost all of the sacrifices made by Nagato in the Invasion of Pain arc I believe that he is capable of anything, including the revocation of over 40,000 deaths.

That's pretty damn amazing! Wish I had color skills like that. 

[TouKen4Life3g]

Would it be bad idea for Naruto to surprise kiss Sakura before going to the finale or anything in that matter? I just thought of randomly asking since I happened to tune in Avatar.

God, it's so...so...GOD I don't have the right word to describe this masterpiece!! I want that to happen in the manga only with a happy ending, with Sakura saving Naruto!!

It kinda reminds me of the Naruto x UT OVA actually. If both of them come together (this fanart and the OVA), it could be an amazing ending.

I actually theorized the same thing not to long ago lol, that is the only way I can accept Sakura dying, by her saving Naruto and being revived by a tnj'd Obito

Yeah. I was saying that in the last page. Check it out.

I just laughed at this chapter, it's confirmation of my continued downward spiral in opinion of Sakura. I used to think well of her, but it's just been useless mistakes and stupidity in an ever increasing downward slope.

 

Hey, there's a traitor fighting by your side. You should hate him.

 

But he just pulled out an amazing jutsu! Forgive everything!

 

"Squeeee! You're so cool Sasuke! You're basically a monster but I want your babies!"

 

And her technique? Hey Sakura, want to try some originality?

 

What's that? You've never done anything original in the entire manga? Oh, my heart bleeds for you!

 

It took you three years to activate that technique...how about actually having a technique during those three years that wasn't utterly useless. If you're supposed to be one of the new Sanin, your predecessors must be weeping right now!

 

I feel truly shamed that I ever wasted my time on this character. After all of that, she's still a simpering fangirl.

 

Sakura Haruno....clearly missed the train to being a fully-realised character, and instead retains the title of "Biggest Doormat in Anime"!
