Nah, Orochimaru is supposed to be with Tsunade. Remember how Analyzer taught us that? She had always had feelings for Orochimaru in the past, as the canon CLEARLY showed. Now that he's good, they can get married. So Oro can't be with Sakura for that reason.

Didn't I point out that was based on filler? It was Jiraiya backstory arc, where at the beginning Tsunade teased Jiraiya if she had to picked between the two of them she would pick orochimaru because of his talent. Then she spent the rest of that arc developing clear and obvious feelings for Jiraiya.

Kabuto might be happy too. He gets to run an even more ridiculous orphanage than his beloved adopted mother did.

No one gives a kitten about kabuto he sucks and should have died a long time ago, really what he bring to the story.

I personally have no doubt that Kishimoto, if given the chance would have expanded on a sannin love triangle. He loveeeeees his team love triangles.

He loves to watch the loser lose

The love triangle was Dan-Tsunade-Jiraiya.

[Tsuki Hoshino]

Dan wasn't part of the team. Ergo not a Team love triangle.

I guess it's technically counting it as a love triangle, even if not a TEAM love triangle.

But did Jiraiya even put up a fight? He wasn't there.

 

Naruto did one better than not put up a fight, he pretended like the battle never had any value to him to begin with.

Yea but what I explicitly said was
: " Kishimoto loves team love triangles and watching the loser lose." I said this because of Jiraiya and Tsunade, and Rin and Obito, and Nagato and Konan (presumably.) And Naruto and Sakura. All of their "parallels" that got wonked in the end.

It's his modus operandi.

Doesn't really seem like it, but then again what's he gonna do? Stick around and beg for attention? It's not like Dan was a bad guy either (unlike The Sauce.)

Instead he just avoided seeing them together, or so it seems by long periods of travel. At least he had some integrity like that--unlike Naruto.

I think the filler actually implied that she might have given Jiraiya a chance before even meeting Dan. Jiraiya just felt like wandering around and being an OP hobo, apparently, so he lost. I don't really remember, though.

It was both before and after meeting Dan. She fell for him in the filler when he started taking being a ninja seriously. Even by the main story's time, it is clear that they do still have strong feeling for each other. Its just they got so used to their situation that neither were willing to be the one to take the next step.

Considering the things reported about the PR stunt Warner Bros did to Snyder with the whole Justice League scenario that just came out recently kinda furthers my belief that the same thing that happened with Kishi.  wether's true or not still remains to be seen from that end, but damn.

Well if that's the case, like Naruto he deserved to be lonely I guess

If you have a shot and you blow it, the fallout is deserrved.

Well, there's also a case to be made that Jiraiya would not have made Tsunade as happy as Dan did. There is a lack of evidence one way or the other.

 

Despite a similar lack of evidence present, there is not a case to be made in the situation of Naruto.

 

At all.

So true, which is why it's a shame things went like that for Naruto.

I mean, Dan was like a bishounen type guy, right? Surely there was some shy girl that liked him that we never saw on screen. So how did he end up with Tsunade, then? The shy girl must have been so disappointed. How could he do that to her? Truly, Dan is The Worst Scumbag.

 

God, this whole thing is so dumb.

It really IS dumb, DrK, and it's why it infuriates me, even years later. =/

We'll probably feel better once Boruto ceases to exist.

[LuckyChi7]

You know the thing that really gets me with this series especially whenever Kishi says that I can't really write a good romance  which if he went the NS route then it would've been a good romance. Then, I decided to retrospect on the whole romantic aspect and this one little gem sticks out at me alot, and you all know what it is. 

 

 

 

Which kinda blows my mind how we got almost a beautiful told romance with Naruto's parents yet when it came to Naruto himself that romance doesn't work.. Like how does that even make sense. 

 

 

ps the Shion thread is coming up soon, just been a little distracted by a few things. 

 

Also Happy Birthday 4life!!!!

*NHer* But Dan died! He probably wouldn't have died if he wasn't with Tsunade and was with that other girl instead!

*NSer* But Neji died! He probably (read: definitely) wouldn't have died if you guys weren't toxic as hell and ruined the manga!
