NaruSaku or NaruHina?

[Narutorious]

Sakura is no different from all the other villagers.

Sakura acknowledged Naruto back in part 1, in fact, in Naruto's eyes, Sakura acknowledged him before Hinata did.

After the Pain invasion that is when Sakura really started to like Naruto.

She was showing more signs that she may have feelings Naruto during the beginning of part 2.

Sakura also admired how he always tries to saave Saskue. Sakura just likes that Naruto does stuff for her.

If Sakura does have feelings for Naruto, it's likely because of what he was willing to do for her, such as saved her from Gaara or the Promise of a Lifetime, & he is motivation for her too.

Hinata on the other hand has loved Naruto from the beginning through thick and thin.

As said above, pointless if the other person didn't knew, Hinata never acknowledged him from his eyes, Sakura was first.

Sakura was just lucky enough to be on his team.

Logically it wasn't luck but grades lol

Saskue, hinata, Naruto, and Sakura are the main people who NEEED a pairing. So the best choice is HN and SS

None really needs a pairing, Sasuke doesn't even have interest in love, & Karin was his only chance.

How can NaruSaku happen when Sakura cased Naruto soo much pain from the beginning to now.

Naruto caused himself pain more than anyone because he put it all on himself, he even said the promise wasn't the only reason why he was still going after Sasuke.

HAs sakura really even changed?

Of course she has, no matter how you want to see it, she put herself in danger to go killed Sasuke only so she can spare Naruto's feelings, even if Naruto hates her for it, now I do think it was the wrong way to go, but this would had not been done in part 1, however she still needs development.

You may see something different but NaruSaku is just a brohter and sister thing.

Naruto having feelings for Sakura & Sakura may having feelings for Naruto is not a sibling relationship, & I know, I have siblings.

[darkdemonofthemist]

Sakura just felt guilty for being so useless. I think that was a bigger factor than liking Naruto.

[TheIndigoFang]

I seriously don't know.

[PrinceofPeace]

hinata acknoledge Naruto way before Sakura did. Hinata acknoledged him when he saved her from the bullies and when he fought Neji

In the beginning of Part 2 Sakura was still beating up Naruto and still worried about saskue. She was only worried about him when he went 4tails

EXACTLY Sakura just respects Naruto that is not love just like admiration

Sakura did not even know that Naruto liked her

and the fact that team Kurenai is the best sensor team

Saskue still has a HUGE chance with sakura

its not like sakura lessend the pain. She did cause the majority of it. Sakura guilited him into the promise she was begging how could he say no. Sakura was just being selfish. At that moment Naruto knew she loved Saskue

If she really changed she would have killed Saskue

So do I and it is similar

[Narutorious]

hinata acknoledge Naruto way before Sakura did. Hinata acknoledged him when he saved her from the bullies and when he fought Neji

You're not reading carefully, for Hinata to officially acknowledged Naruto, Naruto actually has to know, she did it secretly, which isn't acknowledgement, it's admiration, to Naruto, Sakura acknowledged him first.

In the beginning of Part 2 Sakura was still beating up Naruto and still worried about saskue. She was only worried about him when he went 4tails

I already said that beating up stuff means nothing in shonen mangas, in fact, when a girl "beats up" a guy, they usually do eventually get together, Sakura is a tsundere character, it's her character to be like that, it's tradition, it's not malice. Sakura actually show signs such as the flirting, actually accepting the date if he pays, Sai's statement, Yamato's unfinished statement, offering to feed him after he hurt his arm, which are a big deal in eastern culture. Sakura shown signs worrying about him & Sasuke often during the beginning of part 2, perhaps you should re-read those arcs.

EXACTLY Sakura just respects Naruto that is not love just like admiration

Same for Hinata in that case.

Sakura did not even know that Naruto liked her

She didn't know that Naruto had those kind of feelings for her, she knew he like her, he wasn't shy about it.

and the fact that team Kurenai is the best sensor team

Kurenai's team has nothing to do with why they put Team 7 together.

Saskue still has a HUGE chance with sakura

He tried to kill her twice, he doesn't have a chance & isn't even interested in Sakura like that.

its not like sakura lessend the pain. She did cause the majority of it. Sakura guilited him into the promise she was begging how could he say no. Sakura was just being selfish. At that moment Naruto knew she loved Saskue

You're missing the point again, Sakura wasn't Naruto's main reason for going after Sasuke, he was gonna go after Sasuke regardless, even when she said they'll do it together, he still tried to do it himself, even Itachi told him that is a bad habit of his, he tries to do everything himself.

If she really changed she would have killed Saskue

Easier said then done, then Naruto would had just killed him, instead he says we'll both die if we fight.

So do I and it is similar

so you have feelings for you brother/sister =/

[Naruusegawa]

Naru Saku!

[PrinceofPeace]

Hinata was the first to respect and know/love Naruto from the beginning when he saved her from the bullies. Also Sakura is on the same team as Naruto so she is most likely to acknowledge his growth

Sakura has not seen Naruto in years.... it was a pity/catching up. Sakura wanted to eat it was not really a date. But this is my point. Their has not been a strong NaruSaku moment in ages.... it was all the way when Kakazu got defeated. Their flame has burnt out

Yes it is vice versa

It is Sad if an emotionless kid like Sai has to tell you that someone Had strong feelings for you.

But to put all of the sensory ninja on one team is not a coincidence

Karin still likes Saskue. Sakura even wanted to leave the village with saskue. Sakura has not thrown in the towel for saskue

Naruto's promise to Sakura did not help anything. Naruto still feels bad and Sakura helped cause it. Sakura did not help and she really has not soo far. She just got in the way. Now Naruto has to die to help Saskue
( I kinda hope Naruto and Saskue die togehter... idk why I want that to happen though)

naruto would not have killed them because it goes against peace

yes I have a friendship sibling love for my sliblings

Minato as a child was described as flaky, girly and goofy. He was quite, but not shy. He cheerfully told the class his dream without any hesitation, something a shy person would not do.

No, she really doesn't.

Actually in Naruto's eyes Sakura acknowledged Naruto before Hinata. Hinata spent her time hiding behind trees and watching Naruto. As for Naruto saving Hinata from bullies, that was filler. It NEVER happened.

Again...bullies...filler...never...happened. Also, it doesn't matter what excuse or reason Sakura had to acknowledge Naruto's growth. Fact is, while we as the readers know Hinata feelings for Naruto dates back when they were kids it was still Sakura who OPENLY acknowledged Naruto's growth first.

[PrinceofPeace]

Minato is more like hinata than sakura. Minato gained the courage to state his dreams when he was inspired by Kushina

So what if someone else acknowledge him first. THe very FIRST peron to ackelodege him was Iruka.. then kakashi... then Saskue... then lastly Sakura. Sakura was and still is too obbsesed with Saskue

[NaruSaku ShikaIno]

@PrinceofPeace
kushina said "just be careful don't fall for the first girl that comes in your way, find someone like ME"(Kushina)
We doesn't know what Kushina means?Is she refering to a girl that comes his way in naruto's mind or the female's mind?
Sakura was the first to come his way in terms of entering his life as a comrade and a crush.
Hinata was the frist to come his way in terms of confessing.

[PrinceofPeace]

Sakura was the first gurl that Naruto liked and the first one that came in his way. Afterall they were on the same team.

It's not like Hinata and Kushina are total opposites
Plus having two of the same people who are like Kushina never works. They need to be balanced out like how Shikamaru and Temari balance or Shikamaru and his mom or Minato and Kushina
Opposites attrack

[NaruSaku ShikaIno]

@PrinceofPeace
Naruto need someone who keeps him aline and that is Sakura.
If Naruto did/say something stupid, Sakura is one who keeps him aline.
NaruSaku=MinaKushi

[Sagittarius]

Kushina only talks about how she first viewed Minato as girly, her goal for the future, how she was bullied and how she kicked arse. Nothing shows that Kushina stating her dream of becoming the first female Hokage inspired Minato to state his dream.

"So what" indeed.

[PrinceofPeace]

^ you said fillers do not count so...............
Sakura was not even the first to acknowledge Naruto she was the last of the 4

Kushina turned Minato into a man and to go for his dreams

[Hotarubi Hyuuga]

Hinata was the first person other than Iruka and the third Hokage to believe in Naruto, She's always loved him and Sakura doesn't doesn't I mean even in the most recent chapters of the manga it was already pointed out that Sakura is still in love with Sasuke.

Now does she care about Naruto yes, but I see it as, not a brotherly love, but as someone you love, but you just don't love them "that way"

I mean even Naruto knew that she was lying to herself when she said she loved him. What more proof do you people need?

Now though I do believe that is should be NaruHina and SasuSaku I just don't see it happening and that is because Hinata love Naruto, but Naruto loves Sakura, Sakura loves Sasuke, but Sasuke loves revenge and hates everything else so with this going on with on end in sight I'm pretty much going to have to say that everyone here is going to end up brokenhearted .......except for Sasuke, as long as he can hate he will be just fine.

Also about this whole Sakura acknowledging Naruto before Hinata, that is flat out lie because towards the begining of the manga Hinata was the only one, even if it was in her mind who was rooting for Naruto to do his best, while Sakura only talked trash about how he didn't have any parents and that he wasn't raised right.

Secondly even if you don't want to take that as acknowledgment and just admiration Hinata still Acknowledged him first because Sakura only Acknowledged him in her mind up until he fought pain while Hinata openly acknowledged him right before he was supposed to fight Neji at the training ground.

So she both acknowledged and admired him first

[narusaku_kibahina]

Remember Kushina use to hate her red hair, when Minato save Kushina and tell her that he like her hair, from that Kushina love her hair and Minato.
SakuSasu
At the first Sakura was fan girl of Sasuke( just like Ino and the other girls).
Sakura was daydreaming about Sasuke telling her that he like her forehead.Naruto make her dream come true, He turn into Sasuke and said what she really want to hear then She start like Sasuke more then she use to.

True however Sakura figured out that it was Naruto who did that during part one, because of something he said to her around the time that Tsunade came and healed Sasuke and Kakashi and yet even though she knew it was him, somehow she managed the completely miss the fact that he loved her and still fall ever so deeply in love Sasuke.

What chapter Sakura figured out that it was Naruto?

[PrinceofPeace]

Ultimatley I would love for Naruto and Saskue to both die togther


but Naruhina would be better
Hinata has always loved him

Sakura started showing "feelings" for Naruto AFTER the Pain invasion.... this makes her more of a fan gurl. She is no different than the other villagers

I'm not really good with chapter numbers, just events, but if you look for it you will find it, it was around the time that the whole Tsunade things was going on it was either right before he left to go and find Tsunade or when they brought her back and she healed Kakashi and Sasuke.

Naruto mentioned something about Sakura only wanting to be acknowledged by Sasuke which a conversation that she thought she had only had with Sasuke and at that moment she had a short flash back about how she was about to kiss Sasuke and she said something in her mind like. "Naruto...all this time," or "Naruto...you," I forget exactly which one she said, but it still stand that the only completely missed Naruto's feelings for her and fell in love with Sasuke.
