Guys, I'm starting to feel Anakin Skywalker didn't fall as hard as Naruto. At least Vader understands the path he's gone down and the reality of his mistakes.

Ohoho definetly, Vader was  aware of what he became, and he never asked for forgiveness over his actions(Not that I remember at least) ,Boruto's Dad became the embodiment of what he fought against all his life too, but since the studio producing the sequel anime doesn't even care about that, we are to assume he doesn't either.

Since I grew up with the prequels, I don't consider them that bad (besides the horrible dialogue of some scenes, obvs) but I can say I'd take Vader's arc anytime over any Naruto's character arc.

Also:


Say what you want about the prequels, but this scene between Anakin and Obi-wan has more heart than any bs, Kishi came to justificate Naruto and Sasuke's "bond".

I, for one, cannot wait to see what kind of retconned scenes are gonna put instead of the ones that make Naruto looks like a terrible father (I.E: "Himawari's Birthday) . 

It's gonna be soo baad, at least it will serve for a good laugh.

What happens? Team 7 is taking the written test. Sakura is worried because Naruto isn't smart. Then, the proctor announces the tenth question. Anyone who gets it wrong will be a Genin forever. Anyone who wants to avoid this fate should raise their hand now and thereby fail their entire team. This troubles Sakura because she sees Naruto as "different" from her and Sasuke. Not because he's stupid, although he is, but because he has a lofty dream that Sakura wants to protect. She thinks to herself that she doesn't want to see it crushed and slowly raises her hand, but Naruto interrupts her. The question ends up being a trick so they are fine.
 
Why does she do this? She wanted to protect Naruto's dream. This is something that the Sakura in early part 1 would never have even considered doing. Character progression which Kishi ended up stealing from her.
 
Did Naruto love Sakura at this point? Yeah.
 
Did Sakura love Naruto at this point? No, she likes Sasuke. But you have to consider something. How would Sasuke have reacted if Sakura caused their team to fail? He would have deeply resented Sakura for a long time. He would never have returned her feelings. Not that he was going to anyway, but Sakura wouldn't know this. She WOULD absolutely have known that there would be dire consequences for this action of hers in terms of her relations with Sasuke.

 
Ergo, she put Naruto above Sasuke, even if her thought process didn't clearly indicate this. Maybe she didn't even realize it herself. But she did, because she was very slowly falling for Naruto.
 
So what does this mean for NaruSaku? It's an indication that Sakura is eventually going to end up with Naruto. I have been thinking recently that other than the fake confession, her confession in part 1 really did a lot of damage to how people viewed Sakura. Nobody ever remembers these moments from Part 1. They just remember that Sakura was the girl who confessed pathetically to Sasuke. If she never did that, it could still be inferred that both her and Naruto thought she loved Sasuke from the POAL. And it would have had the benefit of not creating an anti-Sakura fanbase.
 
It's not Sakura's job to protect Naruto or his dream. He can succeed or fail on his own. You don't see Sasuke worrying about this. But Sakura goes out of her way because Naruto is important to her and she feels invested in him. It shows Sakura is always the one that really cares about Naruto and watches out for him. So why did she stop?
 
Rating: 3. If she loves Sasuke, why is she willing to completely alienate him? Answer that. Why is it that Naruto is more important even THIS EARLY? If he was more important this early, how was it that he wasn't more important at the end after they both saved each other's lives and did everything together?
 
The only explanation is that Kishimoto changed his plans and screwed everyone over. But no one more than Sakura.

This is who Sakura was. She was so worried for Naruto. She cared about all her friends. She cared about Sasuke, but she cared about Naruto just as much if not even more. And she's really young here. She was a terrible kunoichi and at this point she knew it. This was the only point where she had an advantage over anyone with her knowledge. But she was willing to throw that away and disqualify herself because she didn't want to see Naruto's dream crushed.
 
But later, she's gonna lie to Naruto about loving him when Sai told her Naruto loves her? That wouldn't make Naruto feel crushed when he finds out? She's gonna confess to Sasuke right in front of Naruto? That wouldn't make Naruto feel crushed? She's gonna leave Konoha with Sasuke, leaving Naruto to pursue his dream on his own? That wouldn't crush Naruto?
 
It's irrelevant if any of these things actually did hurt Naruto. Sakura would have considered the possibility that they would have and want to prevent it at all costs. So the ending made her OOC. There's no getting around this.

You know I just realizedd something, Naruto did in fact keep up with his bluffing to the examiners, he stayed an eternal Genin but also became Hokage.
Wether that's very sad or very funny I dont' know.

I would even argue, Hinata is worse by this point, the old Hinata part 1 to maybe mid part 2 had at least some semblance of common sense and dignity but the new one(last part 2 and onwards) literally only think about being with Naruto, she doesn't even care for his safety, or her children, she doesn't even give a damn about herself. For crying out loud in Borut's movie, she left their own children at  a warzone, without evacuate them, just to go with his flipping husband which was battling an enemy far more stronger than her and was protecting the village. This Pein confession, ALL OVER AGAIN, but one could argue it's worse since she was pretty much alright with her children being orphaned just to get close to his "lifesource" (aka. Naruto). She literally never developed, NEVER just as Sakura she is just another character's wife, nothing else and nothing more, I can't even call her a mother because if she were, she wouldn't endorse Naruto's workaholic nature and excuse him in front of their own children.

Speaking of scenes Kishi should've avoided creating (especially if as some people say everyting and the movie were all planned) let's take a look at this scene here:
Naruto%20v20-023.jpg

Naruto%20v20-024.jpgWhat does this two pages say about Naruto's feelings for Sakura? Because what I understood from it is that it was far more significant that a mere "shallow crush" as the Last and some people say it is. Why is he painfully smiling at Sakura if his only goal was to get with her to "beat" Sasuke? Why does he walk away? Why does Tsunade says he is far more considerate than she thought? Why Kishi put this here if he was gonna go with the Naruto never understood love, he saw it the same as liking food?

Really this  scene deserves, at least, a 3 in DrK ranking also it's nothing more than lousy filler now that the series ended, since everything with the ending contradicts all of this scene, also left a lot of questions unanswered.
