But it made sense for naruto to be persistant in his friendship and wanting to save his friend. Theres actual character development between them. As kids their rivalry brought them closer together. A lot of their focus was on each other. Where the moments between sasuke and sakura were minimal. Sasuke acknowledges naruto but he barely does so in regards to her.

This is going to be a short story :/
Kishi wanted Sakura and Naruto to chase after Sasuke and so they did. It's stupid but it is what it is. It's not like Sasuke and Sakura immediately fell in love after the final battle, their relationship developed during the timeskip like everyone else's.
Yeah but not everyone knows that that the other characters especially Sasuke make it to adulthood also since the anime is at that part where Sasuke supposedly gets killed.
It's always been the worse aspect of the series. The whole thing is actually kinda abusive in a way. Or just straight up. It did not send out a positive message at all I feel. It never did even when the show/manga first started. This is why Ino and Hinata were always better female characters then Sakura when it comes to that group of characters.
I am surprised they didn't just wait until the ending happen in the show/manga before using the designs as to not spoil things. It pretty much explains how things end during the war if you're an anime only watch.

Oh i get what he was going for. The problem is that sakura is a poorly written character. Instead of fleshing out their relationship it comes off like a simple infatuation that makes sakura look bad.
I thought you watch the anime? It already spoilered everything.. well except for the kids? Cannot remember, but major plot points were revealed in the special opening in december.
This comment made my day. Lolol

I wouldnt call it abusive though and thats really kind of my point. Sasuke would of had to actually be involved in some form if their relationship for it to even be abusive. Most of the time hes just kinda giving off a "stop loving me im not interested in you" vibe to sakura and she doesnt get it and continues to chase him. Thats basically what their entire "relationship" is.
None of the Konoha 11 had their romantic relationships fleshed out throughout the course of the manga. There was no point where Naruto acknowledges Hinata romantically, that's why they needed a Naruhina movie to do it.
I doubt any of the main characters hate Sasuke for his past actions, it would be pretty odd for Sakura to be the one character holding a grudge.

But gAGE had great character design, Zehearto, and Asamu, and Flit, and Decil were all good designs.
I just want older Konohamaru and regular Konohamaru to be playable.

I'm sure it will be a fascinating story when their daughter ask them how they got together.
True. That very likely is the wrong word to use here.
Guys the anime even spoiled the kids. They aired a commercial for the Last during a episode with naruto and hinatas kid yelling daddy at the end and everyone being surprised. Even if you don't follow the manga the Last spoilers have bee. Heavily bomb'd during anime with openings, TV ads, etc.even kishimoto came out to do interviews and talk about the movie during weekly shippuden episodes
The sub version removed the special opening and replaced it with the normal opening, many anime only people don't even know about the adult characters.I thought you watch the anime? It already spoilered everything.. well except for the kids? Cannot remember, but major plot points were revealed in the special opening in december.

But there are moments where the reader can see how some of these relationships can work. Hinata admitting she loves him and willing to die to protect naruto. The scenes with shikamaru and temari. Not fleshed out but alluded to. Meanwhile all the scenes with sakura/sasuke for the most part emphasize why their romance doesnt work.

I always skip the intro.
Also thanks for the kids spoiler... -_-;
Also this.
Need oldest GOAT sasuke with optional facial hair
Village bum
Gets to be a terrorist, The only person on this planet can stop him likes him too much to put him in jail.
they can't argue because if they do Kekashi will pull up them uchiha extermination records
Because of previous incident the created a terrorist , and have no actual proof that uchiha were actually going to do anything, In combination with Danzo having Eye ball arms, even if the village was in the right, thats not a good look for no body. Because the only witnesses are skeletons. SO it looks like mob cover up shit, and it kinda was. The decision was made to leave him alone and keep some tabs on him, because he's too valuable/dangerous also the only person who can stop him is the hokage, and even then stopping is coming to a stalemate. And no one dares to say too much because he can mind stab them into truama for years that feel like seconds.
And they probably only send him out on hokage level shit,
You sound like them dudes who think mako from korra crying and some shit, no. Those dudes were assholes to you don't end up broke and alone, they are probably alive and living a decent life with someone ect.
Edit: Also his daughter is bayonetta, he stay winning down to the dna. He just had to front load a bunch of traumatic L's to get to that point.

I'm more interested in what the fuck they were thinking when they named her
That's the beauty of a timeskip, anything can happen throughout those years to alter a relationship. There's also the fact that their world is not like ours. They're trained ninjas and people get killed every day. Sasuke trying to kill her (and Naruto) never bothered them as much as it does the readers. They don't give a shit.
Yeah, this happens for other anime as well. You would have the original TV broadcast advertising an upcoming movie that hasn't even been announced for localization. In the sub version they would just nix that advertising.
It kinda figures anyways, they are going to be able to play the game way before the anime ends.
I also doubt they would do something like Ubisoft did in the past where they had to sensor the "Rasengan" attack in one of the past games because that move had not appeared yet in the U.S broadcast version yet.

Naruto is probably her godfather and the one who named her....
Luckily Hinata catch on to Naruto's horrible naming sense and decide to name their daughter herself instead of asking Naruto after what he named their son.

The story that Kishi wrote has a ton of problems.

But in refering to the time spent during the manga. Where she constantly is in love with him no matter how many times he rejects her. Even up to the very end
when sasuke again betrays them and wants to imprison the beasts and fight and kill naruto. You know, the one person whos always supported her.

I read somewhere that if you said her full name you get saradayu which is cooking oil. Meaning that she's going to reignite the Uchiha flame. That's just a theory though.
Also, c'mon. This is not the strangest name an anime character's had.
That sounds like a good interesting premise for the bolt miniseries ...that + naruto neglecting his kids for work and sasuke being a dead beat dad

Been waiting for this since Storm 1. They're my favorite set of Naruto villains. We did get the best one, Kimimaro, but playing as Tayuya is something I've been wanting to do for quite some time on the UNS front.
Woah so this really happened huh? Sasuke knocked her up... I stopped paying attention after the Pain battle but I was always expecting them to never get together.

Sasuke fans are the worst.

There's a widely promoted post series movie that already revealed their survival, and these designs are based on that movie.
I'm not even a sasuke fan.
I'm a shikamaru fan, I think he, Juraya and killer B are the only ones is genuinely enjoy anymore.
The notion of he was an asshole, therefore he must have a shitty life is annoying.
Sasuke got to be a terrorist, and got away with everyone and most people are too scared to do anything to him. And the only person who can stop him , can at best come to a stalemate.
Bum, what bum?

Sasuke actually is a bum right now, well sorta right now, is hard to explain unless you read the manga.

What's with the mark on Sakura's forehead? I know she trained under Tsunadre and she had one but does it do anything or is it just for show?
Being a Shikumaru fan payed off
he stayed awesome and it turns out at one point he was supposed to be the protagonist, its probably why he's so awesome.

I think its already (semi?)confirmed that the next gen children(how many is up in the air but we can assume bolt, sarada and maybe himawari) will be playable, or atleast they hinted at it, this game wont be out for a while and by that time the anime might have finally finished the manga.

Umm you havent read or seen the first naruto anime? I dont remember the exact details but they store chakra in there like a built in reserve. I think.What's with the mark on Sakura's forehead? I know she trained under Tsunadre and she had one but does it do anything or is it just for show?
