Oh, that guy? Did you know that he's an orphan? Can you believe that? What a fucking LOSER. Imagine having no parents. I HATE orphans. How
can he even show his face to the public knowing his mom and dad are dead? Fucking subhuman. I spit on him and his dead parents' graves.

At a certain point it's not about defending or hating Sakura, but realizing Kishi made shit up as he went along and didn't give her a steady arc. She's actually like the post-Cell Gohan of the show because she'll keep talking about catching up and how she's made it, then go back to being herself

Kishimoto was a genuine bum fuck of a story teller. And the people who worked for him could attest to that claim. He was severely carried by story telling tropes that he was told to follow by his editors. And he had not proven himself to be a competent manga artist to be trusted with his own ideas.

He didn't have one. He tried a few things, but he could never really get away from the mental image he had of her in his head as "the girl that has a crush on Sasuke because he's hot". He didn't even really manage to update to thinking of her as Sasuke's wife. So no matter what he did, or anime writers did, or spin off novel writers did, Kishi always drifts back to writing her as that bratty pre-teen girl with an unreciprocated shallow crush on Sasuke while not having any remarkable skills of her own.

She 100% had some sketchy plan with Karin to make a test tube baby in Orochimaru's lab and entrap Sasuke in the village. So Sasuke begrudgingly did the bare minimum to ensure some kind of integration for the new Uchiha life, even though he only tolerated his fake marriage for like two years before leaving and only having rendezvous with Naruto, not his 'wife'.

She was just calling out Naruto's fatherless behavior, and she was right. A lot of his personality problems originated from his orphanhood. The same also can be said about Sasuke though, which is why he snapped at her for her observation.
>>
>>288335504
I think the problem is that most of the better written characters are shown as having been developed from past tragedies they experienced, making their motivations and personalities very straightforward to write within the context of the specific scene at hand. With Sakura, her "tragedy" is happening in the present, that being her two teammates and friends being torn apart and one becoming a psycho terrorist. Kishi never thought ahead about how this could change Sakuras framework of betrayal and friendship, or about the nature of revenge, loneliest, and empathy, things that Naruto and Sasuke represent. She was literally a stem cell, could have been formed into some sort of rayquaza type mediator but Kishi only saw women=relationships for some reason.

>>288335574
Kishimoto wasn't married when he started Naruto, so none of the characters at the start could have been based on his wife as he didn't meet her until the series was running.

>>288336437
Sakura technically did have the past tragedy of being bullied. Unfortunately that was basically just used to establish why she had a rivalry with Ino and she got no development from it other than not being as much of a bitch to Ino.
Stuff that happened during the story falls under what I said before. Those were things Kishi was trying, but they never managed to replace his initial mental image of her.

He did, but not in the way you think. Sakura was never meant to reciprocate Naruto's love for her. The red pill is that she was meant to get killed by Sasuke. That was the logical conclusion of her flawed character (a slave to blind love/lust) and what would've been the single most psychologically meaningful crime for Naruto to resent and oppose Sasuke for. It would have paralleled Kakashi killing Rin, which would have elevated Obito to a direct and personal "bad timeline you" for Naruto to figure out and overcome, and that would have become the entire dramatic and thematic context for the manga to end with Naruto sparing and forgiving Sasuke.

>>288336437
>>288337014
I don't like the concept of pumping an dumping tragedies onto every single character but anything would've been better for Sakura to instead do "NAARRUTOOOOOOO". Have Amegakure ninjas kill her parents or atleast one of them, contextualize her disdain. Fuck, giving her personal stakes beyond Sasuke would've made her more grounded. Fucking Hinata was more solid in her portrayal, you get where her behavior comes from and what could be if it wasn't for the shit that happened to her. But Sakura is just the end result of Kishimoto being unable to make up his mind, never mind at least trying to commit to an idea.

I mean he didn't want Naruto to be anything like what it resembles if that's your argument, but not every element of Naruto is as egregious as Sakura.

No one knew the 4th had a kid. He was born like right as the 9TF attacked the village and people probably thought Kushina died pregnant. The 3rd kept it a secret for his safety. People ignored him and were scared of him because they knew he had a walking nuke, but probably assumed like most of the fanbase that didn't see the "plot twist" that the 4th sealed the fox in some random orphan kid.
>>
>>288333667
This.

Girls have to be AT LEAST as autistic as Hinata to ever be worth anything, let alone marrying one.

By far and away though, most girls in real life are Sakuras. Full of themselves for no real reason, pampered to the point of stupidity and then handed the reins of their own life with predictable results. Looking down on everyone else from their lofty height of 150 cm, talking themselves up while talking everybody else down, both equally inaccurate.

That's at least 3/4ths of all women to a T.

You need to find you a girl who is borderline non-verbal, who holds her hands all weird, but who is secretly OBSESSED with you. That's the one.

If you learn nothing else but that from Naruto, then you were well-served.

Doesn't really matter if she expresses the same level of tactlessness. Why the fuck is she focusing on that in the first place with Sasuke, who is in the same shoes as Naruto: Parentless?
>>
The recent concepts in Sakura-centric rewrites are kind of annoying me. Yeah you can kill her parents in the 9 tails attack and brute force her to have empathy with her teammates but she's supposed to be the enfranchised villager who validates Hashirama's system.
Just address her shallow crush on Sasuke with her willful ignorance on what he's going through in the land of waves arc. Naruto speaks with Haku which informs his philosophy and values for the rest of his life. Likewise, have Sakura talk separately with the femboy of wisdom and have her devotion to Sasuke queried and broken down. Sakura needs to realize that she's enchanted with an ideal of Sasuke and not the actual person. Nothing she says would satisfy Haku, he'd expose her lack of depth on the matter. This would be a catalyst for her to raise her own standards for herself. She might appreciate things about Sasuke she never noticed before or reach an inflection point where she doesn't find anything about him all that attractive beyond the surface level.

OP here, did not expect the thread to get this much traction. I stole the meme from X too, it is not like I came up with it or anything. Genuinely surprised you people are still so passionate about Sakura and are willing to argue about her arc. Never thought she was a particularly interesting or contradictory character myself, just a dumb girl who had the hots all her life for a bad boy. Many such cases irl, which is what makes her so realistic. I remember that scene from both the manga and the anime where she is standing there with a couple of beta simps by her side and professes her "love" for Naruto in order to manipulate him and still cringe to this day. Ending up as a single mom to what looks like Karin's kid was exactly what she deserved

>>288340402
Yeah didnt like the ending much either. Really should have ended with Guy beating Madara to death with his bare hands, all that other shit that followed was superfluous. Havent read Boruto once, just checked the first volume to see what happened to the OG characters. Am I crazy or does Sasuke's girl look nothing like Sakura and exactly like Karin?

While there's a daily chapter dump it's not very conductive to good discussion for various reasons.
Sakura is a character that's in an odd fandom situation where she left enough of an impression to not be forgettable but rather leaving a sense of unfulfillment to both her fans and detractors. Her stans and haters are uniquely on the same page where everyone has their own vision of how she should have been and promote it.
There's also the low hanging fruit for fanfic writers since it's pretty doable to write her as more palatable and cohesive than canon. This makes her safe and approachable for writers whereas other characters have heaps of complexity to grapple with.

This is genuinely a garbage scene.

I never understood how this was pro that ship, it’s an insult to Sakura.

The way Kishimoto writes Sakura seems to be out of spite desu.

That just seems unlikely considering that they knew each other for 40 years and Tsunade never reciprocated his feelings in that span of time. I read it as her having an intimation of doom so she was already in the bargaining stage of the grieving process. The prospect of his death stirred up wistful thoughts and fear for further loss but I don't see a sudden change in romantic interest towards him.

Not that tough of a job to redeem her, easily make her focus on training combat and introduce slug sage, with more healing abilities that can surpass tsunade.
erasing Sasu Saku is a plus for her sake, it will make her sane and rational if she moves on from him.

I remember seeing people say the bullying and discrimination Naruto faced in the anime was either anime only or turned up like 1000x from the manga, that true?
>>
>>288354558
The anime includes additional adults having issues with kid Naruto like the mask seller and hyuga clan, while also having an agenda to downplay his alienation at other times.
SP has never been particularly consistent with adapting things faithfully. To this day the fanbase gets confused by filler.

Do you even understand what mocking mean you dumb sissy?

and that's why they will no longer partner with studio perriot anymore

She's just a realistic female child, she knows she can say anything because she knows there's an army of feminist teachers and girl dads, to protect her from even the most mild comeback from a boy and punish them.

Fair, but he was never a simp like Naruto. He only hit on her occasionally, just like with every other woman. Not to mention she had just gotten over her trauma over Dan, and one of the memories that specifically came up was him telling her it's okay to fall in love with him.

Now I will say this, the child that would be made between her and Naruto would be more interesting than Bolt.
Huge chakra reserves, sage jutsu + perfect chakra control with the healing factors.
>>
>>288360742
the kid would still be the son of ninja Jesus so he will be broken by that standard alone.
>>
>>288360846
i think the only reason Boruto is so strong is because of the mixture of Hamura’s chakra which came from Hinata and the Hyuga Main Branch
so, while Sakura herself is significantly stronger than Hinata, Boruto would likely be weaker with Sakura as his mother
>>
>>288360742
Chakra control is not hereditary at all
>>
>>288360742
To be fair, boruto should be a way more interesting character.
They just completely fucked up his design like everyone else.
He’s the child of a main branch Hyuga.
He should absolutely be a mutt with notable Hyuga features. They made another Naruto clone instead.
>>
>>288361029
my guess is they did not want him to have eye hax and the fact that hinata has no battle stats or little development of her combat nature.
>>
>>288360970
But it's a teachable trait, no?
>>
>>288360899
hes strong because he has an ayy lmao inside of him.
>>
>>288361057
It would have made sense for him to inherit the byakugan I think.
I was just thinking about how most clans have dominant features (hence why they tend to look alike).
Somehow some backwoods Namizake’s genes overshadowed an Uzimaki. Then that child’s genes completely overshadowed a Hyuga.
It just doesn’t add up if you break it down.

Sakura would have been 100x better if she was actually like this and was just a huge narcissistic obsessive bitch. Would have been way more interesting if she had real character flaws that would make Sasuke hating her guts less psychotic and Naruto being delusional about her less retarded.
Like if she intentionally led Naruto on just to fuck with and humiliate him or as a deluded way to try to make Sasuke jealous, and acted even more possessive and controlling over Sasuke trying to entrap him with relationships he didn't want and force him to stay in the village against his will but winding up actually being one of the reasons that drives him away.
Even the giga-bitch fanfic tier version where she beats the shit out of Naruto constantly and then feigns innocence to adults and gets him blamed for attacking her instead would be more interesting.
Also it's hilarious how it's basically spelled out multiple times how she's actually by far the most powerful and skilled ninja on the team(being the top of the class second only to Sasuke, answering all the chunin exam questions correctly, mastering the tree walking on her first try, dodging Zabuza's assassination attack from stealth with zero warning or help and saving both Tazuna and Naruto at the same time, fighting the entire sound trio at once by herself, breaking an unbreakable mind control jutsu with sheer force of will, etc...) and only outpaced by not having alien-cheat-hax bloodline powers and then jack shit is done with that and it never really comes up later and she gets so entirely overshadowed by Tsunade's skills that she basically gets turned into a clone and loses all her own agency and personality.

what
>>
in what ungodly countries is such bullying going unpunished lol
>>
>>288333275
>She's actually like the post-Cell Gohan of the show because she'll keep talking about catching up
Gohan never did this
>>
>>288360742
It would just be minato 2.0 as a medic
>>
>>288361231
Meant Namikaze. You know, Minato.
>>
>>288361231
He's saying you've got an entire clan of Uzumakis with red hair that's been nearly all identical to eachother for a thousand years and somehow a blond blue eyed(two of the most recessive genes in existence) guy's genes overpower them entirely in a single generation and make his son an exact clone of him that looks nothing like his mother, and then that son bangs a girl from a ancient clan that all look entirely identical and have completely black straight hair and alien bug eyes they've possessed for over a thousand years and aren't even really entirely human and this blond guy overpowers their genes too again and makes another identical clone of himself. It makes more sense that Namikaze's are actually a species of parasitic ermophrodite that self fertilizes and just uses human females as surrogates than for Boruto to naturally look like he does.
>>
>>288361269
yea but you have to understand namikaze genes are strong as fuck it's just that they are limited.
>>
>>288361299
thats just poor writing a real child with naruto and hinata would be chill tempered and have the byakugan for plot reasons as well as darker hair
>>
>>288361299
lol you summed up it perfectly
>>
>>288361299
Red is more recessive than blond, and Naruto's face looks more like Kushina's than Minato's.
>>
Sakura loves to "visit" Kumogakure
>>
As one of the old school naruto haters from back in the day I'm insanely gratified that naruto named his child bort and his series failed utterly
>>
>>288362240
Doesn’t address the overall phenotype after multiple generations now does it?
Next time think before you speak.
>>
>>288332686
What she should have said to Sasuke when he left, btw
>>
>>288351708
Yes, everything Jiraiya related is suddenly way better written for some reason. I bet Kishimoto self inserted things from real life
>>
>>288361299
>>288361132
Dude nobody inherits anything tsunade never inherited wood style from her grandpa,Hinata did not inherit her fathers grit and warrior fighting complex.
Naruto did not inherit minatos sharpness and intellect as well as kushinas hair color.
