Ok, seriously here are my preferred Naruto pairing.

Naruto/Sakura (But a Hinata is fine too)
Lee/Ten Ten
Ino/Choji
Jiraiya/Tsunade (Seriously, it brakes my heart they didn't at lest kiss before he died)
Sasuke/Karin (These psycho deserve each other)
Click to expand...

Wow, 100% fits my preferences.

NaruSaku is the best, although NaruHina is also somewhat ok.
Lee/TenTen fits! Two relatively worthless characters should hook up with one another and they're just fit.
Shika is indisputably going towards Temari, so Chouji/Ino is the right stuff.
Jiraiya/Tsunade... yeah, anyone could see this is what would happen if only the Pervert Sage didn't get killed off.
Sasuke/Karin, perfect match that wins the award "The Worst Characters Paired Up with One Another" award.

Karin is legit insane, no sane, self respecting man should wanna hook up with that kind of crazy.

Therefore she's perfect for The Sauce.

I give Karin a pass because she actually has a better desgin then most female characters in Naruto, plus when Sasuke is not related she can be pretty funny...too bad that is only 1% of the time. (Added points, considering she is the only female in the series that actually did anything for the guy)

I give Karin more of a pass then Sakura because Karin it literally crazy! It's hard to get mad at a crazy person.

But I give Sakura a pass because obviously Kishimoto couldn't write a female character if his life depended on it. Sakura had the potential to be one of the best characters in the manga. But all of that potential was wasted by Kishimoto.

Nope... as much as I would normally crap on Naruto, his character arc is deeper and much more involved than Sakura's. The main difference between the two is that Naruto has goals and motivations beyond just "I want to get Sasuke back". What the hell does Sakura want in life aside from Sasuke's dick? Nothing that's what.

And Naruto's obsession with Sasuke is far, far more understandable than Sakura's. Naruto understands Sasuke at a personal level far better than Sakura and vice versa.

Sakura is just a slightly better version of Karin. Yea you heard that right son.

Sakura has expressed wanting to improve her skills in order not to be a burden to her teammates and she's trained for years to achieve it. You don't get to be one of the top medics, activate the yin seal, summon katsuyu etc just by twiddling your thumbs hoping a man will notice you.

Naruto's obsession isn't any more understandable, people just choose to accept it because Naruto is the MC.

Eh, I don't really care for ships in this manga because the writing is awful. However, I think Naruto and Sakura are more likely than any of the others.

Definitely more than the abusive, piece of crap pairing that is Sasuke with Sakura.

But Sakura want's it. :O

Sakura wanted to improve her skills so she can help in finding Sasuke to bring him back. Yeah she didn't want to be a burden on her teammates... while looking for Sasuke.

Naruto's obsession IS more understandable because he has been through way more shit in his past than Sakura. That is why he is able to relate with Sasuke and Gaara at a personal level (because these two have gone through shit in their pasts) where as Sakura's infatuation with Sasuke is "he's a sexy/cool ninja on my team". It has nothing to with him being a main character, I would say the same for Gaara if Gaara saw Sasuke as a friend in the same light (which he sort of does given his speech to Sasuke at the summit).

I'm going to be honest...This sums up all of my feeling on Kakashi. He was a horrible teacher that played favorites with Saskue at the expense of he's other two students.

Can you imagine how bad ass Lee and Ten Ten's kid would be? A genius of hard work, and Taijutsu/Weapon's specialist.

So she hasn't expressed wanting to improve herself for the sake of her teammates and for herself because of feelings of inadequacy several times?

Hahaha, so expected they'd alter her regular clothes as well.

The descriptions for Sakura read, "Sakura, who has grown up to have a mature expression! ...Sakura's gently smiling expression makes quite the impression. Her body's form is also somewhat feminine."

Meanwhile Tenten gets her actual design and it's actually form fitting

Kakashi is a great character, but a shit tier teacher.

Sasuke was easily the strongest, or at least the one with the least amount to approve on, with Naruto need obvious help with control and Sakura just being...yeah.

Not only does he pawn off Naruto to a shit tier teacher, but he didn't give a fuck about Sakura.

Nartuo got everything he got in the chunin exams due to jiraiya, and not Kakashi's. The only thing Kakashi helped with was the Rashinshuriken, and even then Naruto had to perfect it by himself.

Kishi really should fucking check his math.

Nagato was 35 at the time of his death. Minato, who died at 24, would have been 40-41 had he lived, i.e. 5-6 years older. Jiraiya taught Minato when he graduated from the academy at 10 years old. There's simply no way he met and then taught the Ame Orphans for 3 years.

Also, Yahiko, who looked like he was 25-30, was apparently 15 years old when he died. lol, wat.

Given the fact Konan was 35 when she died, I'm assuming that's how Yahiko was.

So if Yahiko died at 15, and Nagato and Konan died 20 years later, that would have meant Obito met them when he was 11 years old? Doesn't fit in the time line. Dafuqery.



There's a bit on his Sage Mode in the data book but it hasn't been translated yet.

yeah the Naruto timeline is seriously messed up. I love how Kishimoto doesn't even address it.
