To this day incels still seethe over Sakura even though she's actually the best female character in this series>useful medic that actually does something>saves Naruto countless times and even kepts his limp ass alive when Kurama was extracted from him>puts a leash on Sasuke so that Uchiha dog can't fuck around anymore>can summon a fucking huge slug>super strong and dependable>MOGS all other girls in the series>makes incels seethe at the mere mention of her name>has a cute daughter>canonically beautiful>actually won her fightsWell, faggots? What's your excuse for not liking best girl?
Ino exists.
Imagine Misty, but she didn't like Ash and lusted for Gary's dick.That's Sakura.
>>291911582no one "seethes" over Sakura anymorepeople "seethe" over shippers that want Sakura to be with Naruto, constantly making threads about said topic
>>291911815I've been watching the japanese sub of pokemon lately and I don't get why people say the idea that Ash and Misty were meant to be together was a just 4kids invention. While I agree the english dub definitely played things up way more it should have and shoehorned forced romance moments here and there, even the Japanese version has subtle hints about them being a potential thing (Ash being briefly enamored by Misty in that Maiden peak episode and agreeing to dance with her, Misty panicking over Ash in that ghost house episode and that subtle "tear and blush" when she finds out Ash is okay.)
>>291911907Yeah, it was clearly one of those decisions that were made before they realized that they had a mega franchise to milk for the next couple of decades.As a kid I loved that 4kids song that didn't make the cut though.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9_6f6DWp7Nk
Kishitmoto is a bad writer, so of course he wrote a bad female character.
>>291912176she's probably the most accurate and honest depiction of a woman in any contemporary shonen manga actually>ermmm why did she stick with sasuke even though he tried to kill her???just admit you self-inserted as narutoyour girl is going
>>291911582Because she's shit.
Sahara Wataru's Sakura is the canon version of her
>>291911582i dont like sakura as a character. she did had some few good moments but she isnt even a good plot device.
>>291912849>i dont like sakura as a characterno normal person should, there's literally nothing to like about her, plus she's a cunt>>291911860only retards want Naruto to end up with this violent psycho bitch, dodged a fucking missile with Hinata, it also helps that she actually likes him. Sakura just hated him for even existing.
>>291912833Sahara Wataru's Sakura is basically Hinata in a Sakura skinsuit.
>>291911636Sai fucking won holy shit it’s not even a debate atp
I still like her
>>291911636she could 1 for 1 any character with her mind transfer jutsu, just sneak in from behind
>>291912236people seem to forget that she tried to kill him in that scene too
>>291914350yeah good point but the actual best written female character in the series is Chiyo
>>291911582Sakura's attitude and moments of incompentence just stand out more to people, but it's true, she works hard to be useful and does help a lot of people. Also kek great point about Sakura being the reason the Uchiha bloodline will dilute into nothing, I actually don't hate them, but that'd appease some people in these threads.
>>291914557>Sakura being the reason the Uchiha bloodline will dilute into nothingNo, that's a failure shared by both her AND SasukeThey shouldn't have just had 1 child, and Sasuke shouldn't be restricted to just 1 wife either
>>291913891He draws Hinata too, and outside of every girl being horny for Naruto, he doesn't do a bad job getting their personalities down. Sakura just channels her spunk for Naruto's
>>291914581This should have happened for naruto sauce should have found some survivor uchiha girl and pump 8 children in to her
>>291914581Orochimaru could always just clone him a new clan, he probably has a variety of Uchiha DNA to work with before and after the massacre
>>291914622Yeah I mean the Shin clones prove that you can just put cloned sharingan in a zetsu goop body and it worksbut that was either retconned or ignored Sasuke should have just had REAL Uchiha kidsat least have more than 1 daughter, I mean what are we even doing here? Restore your clan, with 1 daughter? Have a few more kids, roll the dice, it's a post-war period of peacehave a baby boom
>>291914597No, Sasuke should have impregnated Sakura every time he was back in the Leaf Village while ALSO having 100+ baby mommas out in the wider world while he was travellingSakura would understand
Whenever I look at modern anime fans and their moralfagging over Sakura hate I can't help but think just how much they'd vehemently LOATHE her if she was a guy. The dudebros would rag on him almost as much as Yamcha for being a jobber and if we're keeping his attraction to a female sasuke the same since that's where a good bit of the hate comes from, then the women invading this series would think he's a creepy incel that needs to leave FemSasuke alone, and a borderline rapist because of that one novel where Sakura follows Sasuke around till he gives her a baby and a marriage certificate.
also Sakura is genetically an ideal mother for a future generation of Uchihaher most notable inherent qualities as a ninja are:>EXCEPTIONAL chakra control (pic related)>A natural affinity for genjutsu (stated by Kakashi himself)
>>291914653>>291914670Only problem is Sasuke would eventually need to arrange marriages between 1st or 2nd generation Uchiha to recreate pure Uchiha, and he lacks the social skills for that. He was basically given the task an autist like him can't perform. This would've been easier if he went for descendants of Hagoromo/Ashura since they're already kinda related, they might even come out stronger, but all that's left is the very insular Hyuga clan from what we've seen.
>>291914718looksasukehada hard life....
>>291914723>Even the 3rd he saysAlways gets me, we can see that characters can maintain a somber or plain face while thinking about emotional things because of their ninja ethics, but Sasuke probably had dozens of memories flashing in his mind and realizing they were lies, fueling his crahsout https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jczgn7N11FM
>>291914871the 3rd was one of a kind
>>291914670Nta but the idea of him finding some one from his own clan out there in some village or continent is kino as fuck.Starts his own konoha sanction.
>>291914597I will only allow this if tsunade is included as well.
>>291911582you don't list out "good deeds" or "usefulness" to say if a character's good, you rate their screen time. naruto has saved everyone's asses a gorillion times and people still find him annoying because he is.Sakura spent all of pre-timeskip saying Sasuke like she was the Sasuke pokemon, had one good fight against Sasori, then fucked off back to acting sad over the same guy and did the dumb confession "assassination" shit.
>>291915222>had one good fight against Sasoriyeah but that's actually the best fight in the entire manga
>>291914716Then explain how sarada did not inherit her healing abilities and struggled to learn jutsus from her daddy
>>291914597Ok yea i would take the double wife ending
>>291915525healing jutsu is a specific discipline that you have to train forit REQUIRES precise chakra control, but just having precise chakra control doesn't mean you'll automatically be good at ityou don't "inherit" healing abilities, you have to practice. But Sarada has all the necessary requirements to learn it, if she triedthere was a whole little arc about that>struggled to learn jutsus from her daddyshe didn't even really meet Sasuke until she was already 12/13 years old and a chunin and she still inherited his control of Katon, Genjutsu, Lightning Affinity, and a few other signature uchiha ticks
ALSOpeople always say "haha an uchiha who has to wear glasses I guess Sakura has shitty genes" but the reality is this>Sarada got really sick when she was a baby and almost died - Sakura's medical expertise helped her survive>babies can have their eyesight permanently damaged by high fevers in infancyso Sakura didn't cause Sarada to have bad eyesight, in facf she SAVED her eyesight
>>291914708>because of that one novel where Sakura follows Sasuke around till he gives her a baby and a marriage certificateWait is this just exaggerated or does that actually happen?
>>291915676Sasuke Shindenpretty sure it's canon
>>291915684>Light novel >cannon
>>291915756they usually treat them like soft-canon
>>291911582Sakura is whatever. Pinkshitters were so salty about losing that they bankrolled Raikage x Hinata NTR art for years after the fact.
>>291915821What does it matter its going to be retconned soon
>>291913450if they leaned on that i would like her. but he doesnt her ''strong women'' arc is just ''punch harder'' is that all. also she got protagonist privillege since she not only mastered sage but got to finish the final boss. b.s
>>291911582She made a pretty big ass of herself early by mocking someone for being an orphan. Even if it might've actually been decent writing to have a kid say something massively cruel with no real thought behind it, that's a pretty bad first impression for how early in the series it happens, and she really doesn't do much of anything to redeem herself until nearly halfway through the series.>>291914653Could just be that he actually realized how fucked the eyes floating around everywhere made everything in the end and decided restoring his clan wasn't worth the trouble it could cost everyone else after he finally had time to calm down.
>>291915966that was one of her best moments. after that was ''muh strong women'' and Kishimoto means ''punch harder'' she even got a signature catchphrase . i feel naruto really needed to lean on the ugly side of things
>>291912833original
>>291912833>>291916331his version
>>291916351No big boobs but a big ass and thighs would have been better
>>291914597>>291915182Fixed and agreed
>>291916126Probably would've been better if the terrible treatment he received at the start of the series wasn't glossed over. People who were just dismissive recognizing him is one thing, but the intentionally cruel stuff just being ignored feels wrong. Hell, in the anime they even went and shoved in flashbacks that contradicted how bad his childhood was actually supposed to be near the end of the series.
>>291916522Nice !
>>291916522That hag doesn't have a single egg left in the carton by the start of the series.
>>291911636Konan exists
>>291916522That will do it
>>291915966>She made a pretty big ass of herself early by mocking someone for being an orphanshe had a point, in retrospect Naruto was allowed to do all of that because he was the special kid with special dead parents. she learns 3 years later that he was a Jinchuriki which contradicts the main plot but the series has extremely bad writing
>>291916522Awsome but why is ino not there
The only time she did a hand seal was to summon Tsunade's slug.Yes in the entire manga, she cast ninjutsu a singular time.Nothing fucking changes if you remove her from the story.
>>291916603hashirama genes can refire even a dying star
>>291911582Sakurwa is the worst character in the series, and it is not even close. The only ones worse than Sakurwa are her obnoxious, retarded and mentally ill fans.
>>291917120
>>291916351exquisite use of panels
>>291911636Sai won.
>>291915615>But Sarada has all the necessary requirements to learn it, if she triedthere was a whole little arc about thatI thought Mitsuki was the healslut of their team. Is that another redundant thing about him? Funnily enough his genetics are probably as complex as sage Kabuto's, so there's a good chance he "inherited" the healing from someone, maybe even from Kabuto himself.>>291915673>Sarada got really sick when she was a baby and almost died - Sakura's medical expertise helped her surviveWhere was this stated exactly? Sure there's a scene in the gaiden where salad is sick with a fever as a young kid and some scenes from her early childhood where she doesn't wear glasses, but she's at least 5 in those scenes and the illness doesn't look that serious.>so Sakura didn't cause Sarada to have bad eyesight, in facf she SAVED her eyesightSounds like she cursed her daughter with a weak body, if they are related at all.
>>291917120Meh. By Shippuden, no one is more obnoxious than Naruto or Shikamaru for me.
>>291916351Wataru is a fucking gift, always love it when some fucker just fixates on a wiafu and carries a massive torch for her
>>291916582i feel if he doesnt want to make naruto look like a asshole. even if he did that again in tenchi bridge but it came ''hes emotionless he doesnt really mean it ''but if he made naruto a all forgiving person despise everyone hate him that make harder for us to sympathize with konoha citizens or the konoha 7. even the sasuke retriveal arc flashback he showed how upbringing can shape a person perception of another. but he cant show that much since is also will make Itachi look like a bigger asshole. we cant win that one
The real problem with Sakura is Sasuke being cancer anyway. She's alright when he's not around like in early part 2 or the last movie.
>>291911636the Android 18 of the millenial generationino my beloved
>>291911907or if you watched the movie and saw her fight with melody over him and swim out in FREEZING water to save him
>>291911582Hinata won the NaruBowl fair and square, SakuRat. Die angry.
>>291911582kill yourself narutard
>>291920190>Blonde side girls people keep giving big tits even though they're not stacked(in the manga, anyway)Makes sense
>>291921047?
>>291911582
>>291911636Ino is such a Goddess.PinkSHIT can't compare in any level
>>291911636
>>291911636The story about the mind reader finding out about the monster sealed in the mind of the pariah was all there. It would have been so simple.
>Better Left Unsaid updated a wek agoIs this the thread?
>>291922758wut
The fact she wasn’t mention is insane, you plebs are FOOLS
>>291922840She proofs Shikamaru to be the smartest character

How long would it actually take to wrap yourself up like Ino did as a child?Is there ANY actual practicality to do so?
>>291923077
>>291911582>the best female character in this seriesThe bar is in Hell.
>>291911582I like Tenten desu
You people should appreciate Konan more
>>291921603That's not nearly as large as the anime makes her, never mind fanart.
Sakura never got the recognition she deserved, ironically for being a woman. only women vote in popularity polls, that's why the top 3 is always a sausagefest.
>>291923311
>>291911582>>MOGS all other girls in the seriesThat's Ino, retard.
>>291914350she was trying to martyr herself. "best the burden" of being the one to kill him, a very woman-minded thing to do. she also backs down at the last second because she is too smitten with him to actually hurt him.
>>291915525Sarada daughterwife
>>291921618best part is she says this directly to a guy she KNOWS is also an orphan
>>291921786in the manga is she ever particularly mean to him like the other kids were? I don't recall any scenes of her saying she hates him
>>291915065Hiruzen? My fucking hero.Man was just trying to enjoy life after his wife was murdered by COOLESTGUY
>>291923864During the chunin exams she even called Sakura out to stop being shitty to him.
>>291923914
>>291923926and at the start of shippuden she's the most excited to see him back home.
>>291921618looking back, did sakura go too far here?
>>291923739she does not back down, scene is immediately followed by Sasuke trying to kill her
>>291925244she hesitates which allowed Sasuke to notice her, turn around, and disarm her and nearly kill her instead.
>>291921786inosisters.. if only kishi had read more naruto ff..
>>291926112C'mon it is a really simple concept, especially if you already created these characters and powers.It is more baffling how he created a mindreader/jumper in proximity to Naruto and NOT ues it.
Fuu was cute...
>>291926162despite my joke, i think naruino is very cute and i ship it fully. but we can't have nice things in this cursed franchise. what can you do?
>>291911582>>291911636No idea how anyone can know about Konan and not recognize her as the best female Naruto character by far.>>291916612>>291923311Based and redpilled.
Sakura losed
>>291926162Isaribi-chan cameo
