Hey everyone i've been reading the arguments on here and i thought i should throw in my opinion on it. While i will admit that i was OUTRAGED after reading this chapter because of the whole sakura confessing AGAIN scenario but after reading through it again i actually cannot see how this is a step forward for SS in fact its a HUGE step back and may even be what finally sinks the ship.

Sakura is clearly very pissed off when she gave her 'love' speech which is something we have never seen, she shrinks and acts submissive pretty much every other time they meet in part 2 but for her to get genuinely angry and heartbroken? that has to indicate something even if she doesn't understand it herself.

While ill bet that many SS fans will argue that he still cares about her due to the fact that he didn't kill her when he could have done so easily the fact that he mindkittened her into thinking he did kill her is a huge blow to the ship and not to mention he stated himself that he absolutely does not love her at all and that she a complete idiot for loving him, even asking how she could love him which is a question NS shippers have been asking for 600+ chapters! also he could have just knocked her out normally instead using that genjutsu but i think he did so to let it sink into her head when she wakes up that he does not love her.

Hagoromo's speech is used by SS shipper's to try and justify SS by saying that sasuke will regain his love through sakura but his speech is about love lost between siblings and and hatred forming between friends, it shows madara who lost his little brother and blamed harashima, it shows sasuke who lost his brother and blames the whole ninja system itself and it also shows sakura as well, but what about obito? he lost love too and hated the world because of it but the one he lost was rin who he loved romantically not in a familial way so he was not included in this speech.

I think this may be another hint that sakura's feeling are now familial and she has yet to realise it.

Another reason i believe SS is doomed is because of the upcoming movie, the sketches released show sasuke alive and well pretty much spoiling the outcome of this so called final battle but from his outfit he is clearly not in the leaf village anymore, he is wearing a turban and desert gear instead of a leaf headband SS can argue he's wearing on his arm or waist but no he is clearly still a rogue ninja, and naruto and the rest seem pretty happy with their lives so we can hope Sakura finally learn's her lesson by then

Sakura's confession could also be considered one last desperate attempt to get through to sasuke, she cannot let go of the past and is burdened by feeling's for a boy who no longer exist's hence sasukes " chains of a broken past" line and since he used his genjustu to quite literally reach into her chest and break her heart she may finally FINALLY move on 

in the end i believe NS will come out on top, it has too much buildup for us to start doubting it now and SS has very little foundation aside from a few moments in part 1 still all we can do is support NS and wait til it finally becomes official :)
