If you do not have a Tumblr account, you can simply submit your works to this, or any NaruSaku club. We will have a special folder for this occasion. Journals can be submitted into the group folder as long as the subject pertains to one of the NaruSaku themed days. This is different than NaruSaku week this club hosts. Our NaruSaku week is in October so expect another week this year! I do hope to see some of you post and submit artwork for NaruSaku week.

In case any Sakura lovers have not read the newest chapter, I would encourage you to: [link]

Sakura

First off my biggest rejoice in the newest chapter is Sakuras sudden boost in confidence. The chapter before, Sakura was a bit weary, not doing much more than watching, worrying and then healing Naruto at the end. Having thought about the chapter, Sakuras speech was to boost the ally forces into fighting harder and longer. There is a point where Sakura gets forceful with her words after a fellow shinobi referred to Naruto protecting the alliance as "simple people like us" in which even Narutos expression was one of distaste. Naruto does not view himself any better than any of them. In the past, Sakura had placed expectations on Narutos shoulder, something he was carrying that she realized he can't, he needs help. That is why I think Sakura was aggressive when she shot back at the man, reminding him that Naruto views them all as comrades, he is no better than they are. Instead of Naruto speaking his mind, Sakura says it for him, knowing full well what Naruto was thinking. sakuras first priority is to heal Naruto and for that he needs to step down from fightning for the time being. He can't do all the fighting and provide everyone with chakra throughout the war. Sakura knew that and was worried about his levels and concern for his health in chapter 629.  

What I gathered from this chapter was a big slap to anti-Sakura fans who says Sakura doesn't care about Naruto. This chapter was a big indicator that Sakura cares greatly about Naruto.

Kakashi

Kakashis scene with Obito will probably be a "talk-no-jutsu" and Obito will finally realize where is is wrong. Well, that is where this seems to be going. I am proud of Kakashi because when he first found out Obito was alive, he was silent, taking blows from Obito and not fighting back. He finally has a back bone, a reminder as to why he can move on and be happy once again. This is what I was waiting for Kakashi to finally do.

InoShikaCho

I am really happy to see them working together again, Ino taking the place of her father to rely messages and intel while Shikamaru comes up with a strategy. Of course Chouji is there, smiling.

What did you guys think? Do you think this was a big improvement in Sakuras character?
