Welcome to 'Signs of a Pairing!'
The Absolute Naruto Manga Interaction Compendium!

Updates:
::Current debate:: none
::Chapters completed:: #01-17
Misc: All NaruSaku development is in orange for this forum's viewing pleasure.

--------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------

Intro:
Basically, this thread is specifically to keep track of any and all relationships that occur in the manga -whether platonic or something more! This'll work best for not only in debates, but also for fanfic authors, if they ever want to reference some interaction! It'll all be right here!

--------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------

For rules and the like...

Rules:
When posting info...
-all interaction is allowed. Bring your own subtext dammit!
-there will be no pointless generic interaction between already established relationships. (As in, Sakura said 'Sasuke-kun' or Hinata said 'Naruto-kun' or Naruto said 'Sakura-chan') It has to be a new development for it to be added (or the involved characters don't appear enough).
-you can voice your concern if you disagree with something. (When something is brought up, it'll be linked in 'current debate')
-you may voice your opinion on a 'relationship' listed, but please do not say your reason as something as asinine as 'It's not canon!' or 'NARUSAKU 4 EVA!!'. A coherent post will sway in debating.
-Please do not go off-track. Yes, you can put in your thoughts and comments, but we really don't want to stray from the points here.

And finally, I'll updates will be placed here in chronological order. Any further updates will be linked to a further post of mine.


Format:

Chapter ###
Important:
(all key events of what affects a characters thinking and what is seen in a flashback becomes important)
(also notice how the addition and subtraction symbols can signify whether the event was good or bad)

Note-worthy:
(what fits here, is general things of interest)
Debatable:
(something that needs debating of whether is important, notable or a figment of too much sugar will be included here!)
Miscellaneous:
(nothing has to be put here, but just anything that can't be argued, like a cover or snippets written in the margins -if it's the margins, a translator group must be quoted)

Note-worthy:
none

Debatable:
none

_Interesting cover pic. Everyone's wearing their bandana over one eye, like Kakashi.

Yeah, I know... But I'm doing it on purpose...
I'm completely positive that there's more evidence of NaruXguy than there is of NaruHina or SasuSaku! tongue.gif
...That's a pretty bad sign actually. On the other hand, don't forget I'm also keeping tabs of things like... Shikamaru x Ino or Temari or Kin or Tayuya. So it's not all bad, eh? ^^;
Anyway, I'm pretty sure most of the relationships are one-sided, platonic or don't appear for very long (with the exception of Naru/Saku, since main characters get far more spotlight than others).

Edit: Did an update today. Did a general clean up, fixed up the drab a bit and added chapters 7-10.

okay, you're kind of wrong when you say none of it is debatable.
1) are they gay?
even in our world, admitting to be gay isn't easy.
they will have to overcome that in theire relationship if they should ever become anything.
2) age difference?
dude, they're like ten years apart.
ANYONE who saw the sexy no jutsu in real life would get a nose bleed, and that was just humor. you can't add that as evidence. kishimoto was just being funny. that's all.
next is the third hokage!
1) dude, he's a freacking geyser!
2) he's MARRIED! he has grandkids! hello...
and i'm too lazy to read the rest. but a lot of this doesn't apply.

Ah, sorry for the long delay! I kind of had to stop when I moved my Naruto manga to my external HD and then simultaneously working on my H&E entry too. I'll be right on this again now though!

Tenniswerd:
This topic is about keeping track of 'talking' between people. Like, if Sakura was blushing because of someone, I'll write it down. If everyone is surprised by Naruto, it gets written down too. Someone new pops up, they're written down as well.
Basically, if you're looking for if some people ever talk to each other, it will be here. smile.gif

Pite:
Well, I'm fuelling everyone else's arguements as well BUT...
I'm positively certain that there's more important NaruSaku scenes happening than important NaruHina and important SakuSasu combined! tongue.gif
We'll see though. We'll see.

MonkeysTotallyRock:
Umm... I think you missed my point. ^^;
I'm listing the parts where people interact.
Good for fics if you're looking to see if person a and person b ever talked, you know?
And I only used the title cause I highlighted all NaruSaku bits in orange. tongue.gif
Course, if you see something that looks important or not important, let me know and we can all talk over how important a scene is!

Hopestar:
No worries, I'll get right on this again!
Personally, I'm hoping to get maybe 5 or 10 chapters done a week but we'll see.

Hey, great thread vespar!

I haven't re-read Naruto in a long time, so it's good to see who interacted with who. =D
