Who were the fucks sealed up by Hagoromo's tools? I forget. Looks like Kishi didn't forget about those tools though after all.

And lol at Kakashi's statue having the mask on.

The bit where Sakura gives up all self respect
;________;

Kishimoto had to have given into editorial pressure of some kind. SasuSaku is poisonous. All the development he bothered with giving to pairings was mostly focused on NaruSaku.

Now, in the end, we get Sakura losing every last shred of self-respect and Naruto gets no closure whatsoever. There's no mention of the promise he made to her, he doesn't even seem to care.

The lack of closure is what I really hate. That, and the fact Sakura literally reverted to her early Part I fangirl self.

You know what, I can't even blame Sakura. This is 100% forced. Kishimoto forced this and to do it he had to cast away all the development he had given her. This might as well have happened in chapter 3.
 
I sorry but anyone saying Sakura has no self respect just have to look at Naruto he is the same way .
Only difference is Naruto had the power to kick sense into Sasuke.

We know Sakura and Sasuke would likely end up here, but it could have been done much better.

Oh well, they're all happy I guess. Super happy fun time.

I agree about Naruto's closure, but he DID keep his promise to Sakura. He said he would bring Sasuke back, and he did. I mean, that's why he actually apologized to her, and even did the forehead thing. He's the old Sasuke, now on the path to redemption.

A bit silly and forced, but I do feel he fulfilled his promise.
 
I'm just happy that a level of stupid like Sakura doesn't exist in our world.

Unfortunately I have a cousin who is way worse off! It's probably why Kishimoto angers me so much in his handling of Sakura. He's literally promoting a toxic and destructive attitude and relationship. Sakura is poster child of his mysogynistic and sexist treatment of all of his female characters. You can actually see the disdain he has for Sakura.

Honestly, Naruto should have been a BL manga. NaruSasu is the only convincing relationship in the entire series.
