Sasuke is so much more fun and interesting as a villain.

That's what I said.

[rocci]

That's what I said.

Just make him an antagonist like shesomaru.
Since team 7 & konoha is too big for naruto & sasuke.

I know, and I'm happy to know what's what.

  I have no interest in embracing or  reading this story but Salad comments to Sakura was a bit brutal, very Sasukesque.

Because she's female sasuke wearing sakura cloth.

I don't think Salad is female Sasuke, she has her own unique traits & a curiosity that Sasuke didn't have.

agreed, besides these comments are appropriate. Sarada has a right to know her biological parents. If Suckura is hiding the truth from her than that is even crueler than anything Sarada has said. And what she said wasn't even cruel. Assertive yes, but not cruel.

She was only stating the truth. If people can't handle the truth then too bad.

Even Kishi said it...

[Midoriko]

My bad I should have expanded to say she was brutally direct when talking to Sakura.  

[dejavu]

 
Another thing: Whatever happened to "team 7 laughing together again." It's like as soon as Sasuke came back, Sakura forget the other two guys existed and Sasuke left the village again.

dont worry. They will laugh together again eventually... in a mental asylum that is.

I used to be a big fan of team 7 but come to think of it.. when had they laugh together? lol

Even Kishi said it...

this is so true that it isn't funny anymore. our genes prolly caries our mother's wardrobe

No need to apologize, you haven't done anything wrong. Just bc we think her bluntness was justified doesn't mean it wasn't cruel. Perhaps there is a good reason Sakura is hiding the truth from Sarada.

 

No need to change your opinion if you thought she was cruel.

 

It's just that personally I think bc Sasuke is never home Sakura should have been level with Sarada.

Ofc she's not female sasuke, because she doesn't has a brother complex who kill his entire family while mind raping her to kill him.

And burito isn't naruto clone since his hairstyle look like a leave.

But I understand what you mean.

I dunno about. Sasuke is actually pretty in character. Besides hooking up with Sakura in the first place, him leaving the village and not giving a damn about his wife/kid is pretty par for course for him. He's always been a self-centered a**hole and he always will be. Making him into a family man like the SS fanatics portray him? That would've been out of character.

 

IMO he's in character with the dark Sasuke. But the real Sasuke, the one from the beginning, we never gained him back. I thought he would be happy in Konoha. It's good for him to go all alone and expiate is crimes. For one or two years. OK . But not abandon Sakura and his daughter for 12 years. That is too much. That's not like him. I mean, that not like he really is deep inside.

 

 

Sasuke became OOC the moment he admitted defeat to Naruto and poked Sakura on the forehead.

 

No I don't agree with this. The real Sasuke would have admit defeat. Naruto was supposed to get THAT Sasuke back. So that was OK. That was good ! But IMO it happened A LOT too late. That thing with Sasuke last too long. Sasuke was made too much insane, and then 'ta da' he's good again. That was too quick and too late. I don't get why Kishi keep this for the very end. He could have written something else after, like, I don't know something good about team 7 rebuilding. LOL
But no.

I know I was away for a while, but I had a lot on my mind and reading NasruSaku Fan Fics.

 

I don't know how to feel about this right now, but I will at least keep an open mind for now.

 

But I am not getting my hope up, because I don't want them crushed again.

[HalfDemonInuyasha]

I'll just copy/paste my rant that I put on Facebook...

 

"*Sigh*
 

This will probably be the longest post I have ever done...a rant...
 

Decided to take a chance and check out chapter 1 of Naruto Gaiden.
 

http://www.mangapand...eventh-hokage/1

 

...and I regret it. It just screams "misery" to me.
 

Sasuke is nowhere to be found until the very end of the chapter, and Sarada even says (in her mind) that he wasn't even there when she was born, and yet deniers still try to make Sasuke out to be great father material.
 

Naruto can't even train Bolt himself, instead sending a Kage Bunshin to do it because he's just "too busy" in the office, with Shikamaru not being helpful to Bolt in the slightest, even admonishing Bolt for making Naruto's job harder and saying Naruto and himself were busy people (and yet there Shikamaru is, walking the street with his own son, not seeming in a hurry or doing anything important), yet simultaneously admits that the way Bolt is acting is just like Naruto acted at that age, which should've been an obvious sign to him that something was wrong. Again, deniers continue to try to paint Naruto in a rose-colored light as a great father.
 

Sakura looks tired and just completely overreacts to Sarada asking her about her relationship with Sasuke (resulting in their house being totaled, and Sakura not even asking Sarada what was wrong or why she was asking such things or anything; Sarada doesn't even appear to want to be a ninja at all), only for Sarada to later find the photo of the "happy couple" is nothing more than a Team Taka photo with Sakura's photo taped over Karin's place. Deniers continue to come up with talking points on why Sasuke and Sakura are so good together.
 

And Hinata nor Himawari make any appearances whatsoever.
 

....this is what the story, characters, lessons and morals as we knew them were destroyed for; all in order to force together certain pairings to please a minority fan base. Now the next generation (that didn't even need to be made as this is just a clear cash grab) has to pay for it. Any logical person can just feel the misery from Bolt and Sarada oozing from this first chapter. Sarada is even in tears after Sakura tries to pull the whole, "Your father is away on an important job. He'll be back soon", lie. Who knows how many times Sarada has been fed that lie by Sakura throughout her life whenever she asked where her father was.
 

And yet I'm sure the far more extremist NH/SS "fans", who can't look at the franchise outside of just the pairings, will try to find any excuse to say that they're all "happy" and that I and others are simply being "salty" and that we're just mad because our pairings didn't happen. Logical NH/SS fans dislike the ending because it lacks such development and it doesn't feel real to them.
 

However, I personally don't give a damn about pairings in general, but IF there are to be a pairing(s) in a story, then constant, consistent, and mutual development for both characters, both individually AND together, needs to be there to justify it happening. You can't just have one side liking the other quietly from a distance a majority of the time while not having any sort of real conversation at other times, only do things based around that other a few times throughout the entire (long) story and ignoring development in other areas of their life, that other person not noticing them in a romantic sense at all (outside of a movie that forcefully retcons important moments in that other person's life, as if that person's development doesn't matter anymore), and then just throw the two of them together at the very end of the story and expecting logical fans to just accept it without question.
 

So again, I don't who care who Naruto or Sasuke end up with, and I don't care if Bolt and/or Sarada end up with anyone. What I do care about is that if they do end up with someone, the plot and development will be there to realistically support it. In the cases of Naruto and Hinata, and Sasuke and Sakura, they are not there, and anyone who says they are is a desperate, willfully blind and deaf liar who only cares about getting their favorite pairing(s) to happen regardless of the cost to the story, characters, and franchise in general. They are not "Naruto" fans. They are solely "Pairings" fans.

Sorry for the rant, but I just had to get this off my chest after reading this and discussing it with my friend."

[ALEX SENJU]

Whats up everyone sorry I have been gone so long, i have been extremely busy lately. So i finally got around to reading the first chapter and what do i find, more sakura hate, surprise surprise. I mean come on kishi you just couldnt stop yourself could you, surely you had to have gotten all of this anti-sakura crap out of your system by now. Also naruto is still apparently a lousy father based on bolts dialogue.   But besides those two issues i relatively enjoyed it (as much as possible considering), i thought sasuke looked bad-a and i enjoyed alot of the dialogue with the kids. And im glad bolt seems to be popular and skilled since hes pumped for the exam, i also really like salada. I will continue reading but im not getting my hopes up too high.
