Yeah, you can fall for anyone at anytime, I agree with that. The problem here is that that type of attraction can´t be THAT strong, it needs something more to grow into a "full fledged love". Sakura was head over heels for Sasuke even when (apart for the reasons stated by Sorvarin) he not only told her to f*ck off and showed that he didn´t care for her well being at all numerous times, he even actively tried damaging her!

Yeah I went full rant mode because of a series that romantic love isn´t it´s main theme :P


true usually, over time she should have gotten over him, thats how it works in real life, but remember that is anime & anime logic :)

Wrong... if a person is a total ass and does not give a single shit about you and tries to murder you, you have to be a complete retard to still care and want to be with that person. People fall out of love just as easily as they fall in love. Here it shouldn't even be an effort.

I fully supported SasuSaku back in season 1 cause there was glimpse of hope. Sasule still seemed to remotely care. However, in Shippuden that was not the case any more. He is nothing like the Sasuke from before, there is nothing left to love. Sakura, sadly is a moron for still loving him.



And ending also does not explain Sasuke's sudden change of heart for her.


haven't u never seen a girl/woman who falls for a dirt bag or a woman who still believes there is good in that person even after he stabs her, a naive woman like that???? where to u live??? under a rock???

but sasuke never really tried to kill sakura, if he wanted her dead then she would be dead already, he just wants sakura think of him that he would not hesitate to kill her, that others would think of him as dirt bag (so in hes case she is not naive like woman i mentioned after stabbing still sees good in...) & sakura see trough him, but i agree the thing between them is bit overkill, dumb, sloppy writing or how should i call it

i'm neutral about sasuke

that they haven't set the end date yet means that anime continues way beyond manga, its already close to where manga ended, so anime goes on with some1 else made up story & not with Narutos manga authors story, u know what i mean

I've seen things like that BUT the difference is : Sasuke and Sakura have never been in a relationship ever. in my life i've never seen a "naive" woman who would love someone who almost killed her when she and that dirtbag never been together never shared one single hug, not even talking about sexual things

Dear @Sugram22 i know how it is when you find something in a character that "rings bell" for you, and your fascination may look illogical to other people, and you just don't know why you feel that way. it's ok it just means that it's some kinda stuff dealing with our past lives' experience. there is something personal for you in shipping sasuke x sakura it's ok i understand. no use in arguing

Caught up just in time for the final fight... I'm 100% sure this will go out in a bang, Pierrot may be bad at dealing with fillers but when it matters they usually deliver.
5 main aspects I base my ratings on:
1. Did DramaEnthusiast make a thread about it?
2. Is it better than Breaking Bad?
3. Did MellowJello recommend the shit out of it?
4. Has it caused a (very entertaining) shitstorm on MAL?
5. Is it actually good?

Scratch the fifth point, it's not very relevant...

Those who continued to watch this (plus the fillers) I seriously applaud you.

I've been drifting in and out of this series for the past two years so I can't say I'm the biggest fan.

But holy shit....IT IS FINALLY HERE. Naruto vs Sasuke Part II! We've all been waiting for this!

11 Years and 5 months that is. The conclusion to their battle ended on May 11th, 2005. Insane.

Here's hoping this final battle is worth the wait!

Sakura still being in love with Sasuke, yeah, that never made any sense xD I'm sure that even if he killed Naruto and her parents she'd still be like omg sasuke I love you pls staph!
And to people saying that love doesn't need reason - sure thing, BUT there is a difference between her falling for someone we just don't like or we think she'd be better with Naruto, and still being in love with a guy who wanted to kill you, thinks you're annoying, and has nothing in common with you. Sakura just always thought that Sasuke is hot, yeah, that's what we call big love of this series.

Kishimoto just didn't know what to do with that pathetic plotline at the very end of his manga...

But, not counting that, great episode. Loved the manga-like preview!

Go figure, Sasuke finds a way to be an insufferable douche even after they save the world. To be fair to him, I just can't bring myself to hate Sasuke this time. Knowing all that I do about his life and journey, it's understandable that he didn't change so easily. Something I've observed throughout Naruto is that the Sharingan represents loss and sacrifice. Pain that only grows as its power increases.

Already knew it was coming but still... Sasuke really frustrates me with the way he thinks. Then again there wouldn't be much of a story if he isn't the way he is. :p

Also can't help but laugh during all of Sakura's parts for how sad her character is where her love for Sasuke is concerned. rofl (Sorry Sakura fans, I just don't like her.)

Don't worry, Naruto. Sakura loves Sasuke as a friend. She's not ruining your birthday. She'll give you the pussy later on.
Typical Sasuke reply. LMAO He knocked her out.
Naruto and Sasuke meet at the fated place where they battled before and where the GOAT, Madara and Hashirama, fought their final battle. The final valley.
The battle we've waited a decade for is finally here. Hopefully, there's no Looney Tunes animation.
If you see that my post is exactly 1 month old (or more) from when it was posted... Don't waste your time, especially when you want to reply with something petty & insignificant. Assume that I've moved on (because I have).

So this is where they want to go all out, the fight between Naruto and Sasuke and not the earlier fight with Kaguya. Makes sense. They better show me something mind blowing though. And when Sasuke finally loses, Naruto better shove that arrogance up his ass and he better pay the consequences, though I highly doubt that. Also I just know this fight will contain many, many MANY flashbacks.

Sasuke once again proving how much of a stupid and pathetic piece of shit with no redeeming qualities he is.

He proves how much of a real piece of trash he is enslaving the Bijuus under the Genjutsu like Madara did. Not only that, but he attacks Sakura again and in his manic state and genocidilimpuses refuses to save the people from the Infinite Tsukuyomi putting his own ulterious and petty motives over the safety of the people.

And once again, Kishimoto keeps selling the idea that this toxic relationship between the terrorist Sasuke and the rest of Team 7 is something beautiful and deserving to be pursued. That's sick as fuck, this guy is a murderer.
What the fuck was Kishimoto thinking? This is a shonen. Teenagers watch/read this and feel inspired by this. He's teaching the wrong lesson, pure toxicity.

so sasuke is lelouch now? from some reason i understand his motive that i actually hope for him to win, but the he and sasuke talked about itachi's words, and how they both learned him differently, this is changing the whole situation to more political than i thought, good one kishi :D

sakura doesn't deserves sasuke, too bad she got hooked to him so much -__-

So as expected, we see alot of hate on Sasuke. But let's be real. Do you really want this series to end without the epic Sasuke VS Naruto fight we've all been waiting for? ๐Ÿคจ

Plus if you just try to understand what he's been through, you kind of get his reason. And in a way, you could even say his goal is noble. He just wants to change the way things have been. He wants things to change in a way that there won't be another Madara or another Itachi in the future. That said, his method of achieving that goal is of course wrong ๐Ÿคฃ

As for Sakura, the hate is also expected. But she knows her place. It's not like she can fight him to get him go change his mind. Her kind of self sacrificial love is what Sasuke really needs. But of course, he doesn't deserve it ๐Ÿคฃ he's really lucky to have her even when he's gone past rock bottom.

Please allow me to rage post another ๐Ÿ˜‚

For the Sasuke and Sakura relationship, maybe you can't say he loves her, but she definitely holds a special place. The way he treated her when he first left Konoha. The way he always notices and acknowledges her first in a group of people. The way he smiled even as he called her annoying in this episode. The fact that he put her under genjutsu? He just doesn't want a replay of what happened in the hospital rooftop where she could have gotten hurt or died!

Maybe there are even some hints to possible love too. The way he thought of his mom when Kakashi was talking to him in this episode, hints at him seeing her as family! And of course, let's not forget the way he held her and looked at her after she saved him from Kaguya's dimension!

For crying out loud, Sasuke was always the cold, selfish narcissist so his emotions are much harder to read than anyone else's. Given his very limited capacity to show any form of care and concern, he spent alot of that limited capacity for Sakura. The only one who got more of his love is Itachi ๐Ÿคฃ

Feels nice to get that off my chest ๐Ÿคฃ peace out โœŒ๏ธ

Damn, Sasuke's back to square one.

Why do I feel that his Rinnegan has gotten stronger and he's able to use it more efficiently? Also how exactly will he 'kill' the tailed beasts? They are natural forms of chakra and reappear over time. Like the 3 tails was inside the 3rd Mizukage when he died but he later reappeared in a lake.

Welp the final battle is gonna start soon.

Yeah this episode was weird i'm not a fan, the way Sasuke switched up on team 7 made no sense bc didn't he get closure from everyone ? and came back to help his teamates and now he went back to being a washed up version of Madara. this is garbage and shouldn't be happening but i guess they have to make the naruto vs sasuke work somehow ... i'm tired of this BS but here we are, and like i said this is not Sasuke this is a forced plot twist Sasuke. Yeah let's make Sasuke the new threat to the ninja world bc we don't have any bad guys left i'm gonna throw up for real.
