You know, the thread title bugs me a bit. I do not think it can or must be said we -or someone else- will win or lose. This isn't a war or a sports match. Thus, the idea of we "lose"... There is nothing to lose. We are right or wrong about an aspect of a history and its outcome. That is all.

This said, if we are wrong and NS doesn't become canon, I'll shrug off and move on. I guess I will be a tad sad and maybe somewhat surprised, but I'll get over it.

I think you might just be thinking about this topic too seriously. Of course many people are going to be mega disappointed and sad, but I doubt someone will actually go after Kishi at gunpoint to make him change who he's shipping. It's all in good fun.

Good summation, everybody! And SakuraBlossoms, you make my unhealthy obsession with Naruto sound so important

I guess it's just the feeling of being a part of something, even if it's posting stuff on a forum. I almost feel like I have a family here. Almost.

So my empathy for Naruto has led me to see Sakura as the girl for him. I wouldn't have it any other way, really. And in fact, I like squealing like a fangirl whenever Naruto does something cool or laugh when he does something dumb, and I like that when Naruto was acknowledged by the village, I felt like I'd been acknowledged too, or at least like I'd been partly responsible.

'Cause I'm a nerd like that

more like, your cool like that! xD it would really suck of Narusaku didn't happen.. I have MONTHS worth of debates posted on youtube. I go by a diffirent name tho.. hehe

[Phantom_999]

Welcome to the forums! I feel the same way for the same reasons I've argued for NS for as long as I knew the manga and anime

[CloudMountainJuror]

Now that I think about it after a while, the only way we can lose is if Kishi provides a ton of development for NaruHina or SasuSaku or etc. Any other way, we win regardless. How is that?

Simple. We win because we fight on the side of logic. If Kishi defies logic, that's him "losing", not us (so to speak).

If NaruSaku lose I might cry, I mean not only will I believe that the show is bad, but I have spent like 10,000 hours watching videos and other stuff all around NS. so yeah, grrrr!

[FoolishYoungling]

Don't jinx us! :O We can't lose! There's no way we can lose! I've spent so much time, sweat and work into this pairing! Just.... NO! If by some reason Kishi has been drunk or something and put a crack pairing then..... I will burst into tears and swear at the closest person next to me!!!! If lose to NH...... Dammmm!! I will break a wall and say "Shannaro!"
This was my crazy fan side. Sorry you had to read that. :/

Only person that could take Sakura from Naruto is me, and I'm sure if I tried then I would be killed! GOOD LUCK NARUTO!

[merryGOflava]

....hmmm

if we lose: thousands of naruhina fans will sign up here just to troll

if we win: thousands of narusaku fans that have been absent will come back to have a party.

[Thebonefireful]

Lol everybody goes to this topic, because of that one pannel:p But to stay on the topic. If we lose i wil be dissapointed.But there is nothing you can change about it. kitten happens But life goes on But im stil positive in narusaku. That one pannel is not gonna change my opinion. Just wait and see;)

[Kenny-kun]

I had a morbid thought run through my head. What if we lose. What if SasuSaku or even NaruHina becomes cannon what will happen what will you do?

Sure i wouldn't give up on the series but really the thought scares me does it scare you?

If we lose, we lose. That's it. Doesn't mean we still can't appreciate the pairing. When Code Geass ended, I was annoyed that Lelouch and Kallen didn't hook up, but have managed to read some fanfics which give far better attention to the couple. The same goes with Naruto and Sakura.

If old people come back, your going to have to explain to me who they are!

So I found my reaction if we do lose this....which im positive we wont.

[CloverChan]

Win? Lose? I dont think so

This manga is not a pairing competition, this not Hinata's love story, this not Sakura's or Sasuke's. Its Naruto's story. He is the main hero who wanted to be Hokage, save the world, bring the peace, save his beloved friend and gain the love of the girl he loves. And the story tells how he earns each of those goals.

I dont see the point of make a shonen where the main hero doesn't get anything he wanted. Yeah, included the hard girl.

Since when was Sakura one of naruto's goals? It's either I'm missing something or half asleep but in the manga, does it state or imply that Sakura is one of naruto's goals? She's not a trophy to be won you know.....

Probably not a goal, but something he always wanted. Goal or want, I'm sure its the same, then again, maybe not!

Well, technically, one of Naruto's goals regarding to Sakura is to pretty much make her happy no matter what the cost is, even if he thinks that she does not end up with him.

Well, he wants everyone of his friends happy, not just Sakura.

Naruto has never thought of Sakura as some trophy to be won, the only thing he's been trying to win from her is recognition, which both of them have wanted, and Sakura has done that countless times for Naruto and the same back. It's been a given since chapter three of the manga that Naruto loves Sakura, but he's always made sure they don't overshadow is respect for her, Sakura comes first, and if she's happy with Sasuke, so be it, but deep down Naruto really wants Sakura to return his feelings, and although we've seen that in some recent chapters, it's kinda hard to explain your feelings during a war, that will come afterwards.
