Sakura is a "cold hearted bitch" Sakura's temper has often been linked to her being this "horrible demon bitch" who cares for no one but sasuke and herself -____- and again I'm here to tell you guys just how wrong the people who believe that are and to inform you (Sakura Fans) how to disprove this theory.
Sakura Haruno can be described as many things "Bitch" is not one of them.
She is a caring girl, she cares for her teammates. We all know she cares for Sasuke, but she's shown how much she cares for naruto too.
Sakura's kindness to Naruto
Sakura even in part 1 was conscious of naruto and how he was feeling, she also wanted to cheer him up.
Not wanting to see his dream get crushed.
Here we see sakura with Kakashi as they exchanged glances showing how they believe in Naruto even when everyone else doubts him.
Wanting him to prove to everyone how great he is.
Sakura giving Naruto loving/caring smiles while he's not looking.
Sakura's caring heart, tightens at the thought of Naruto's pain and suf

Road to Ninja sceenshots with Naruto and Sakura!Here's the video to the interview: I almost cried at the end of Naruto and Sakuras small chat.
Masashi Kishimoto video interview is from Asaichi, a television program on Japanese public station NHK.
Why did you start writing Naruto?
Kishimoto-sensei: At the beginning, I thought I’d write a story about ramen, something about the relationship between noodles and soup. But that was no good, so I passed that part over to the protagonist’s name and started to write about Japanese ninja.
What was the theme that you most fussed over for Naruto?
Kishimoto-sensei: The idea of being acknowledged, of wanting to be acknowledged. I gave the protagonist my own feelings of wanting to be acknowledged by my manga’s editor.
When writing Naruto, who is your target audience?
Kishimoto-sensei: First of all Children, in particular schoolboys in their second year of middle school. Even if I have to prostrate myself, please watch me! The feelings held by second year scho

NaruSaku RantAlrighty guys, here is an excellent, detailed description I found of why the Naruto/Sakura pairing is most likely going to happen. I'd trust this "rant", since it is based of the real Japanese manga and not the lame-o Americanized translation. Which blows. Well, here it is. Sakura/Sasuke shippers, try and argue yourselves out of this hole. Heres a rant about NaruSaku ^^ events are in cronological order..somewhat
In the beginning, Sakura hated Naruto, like when Kakashi interviewed them. Kakashi: And what do you hate? Sakura: Naruto! She thought, for the most part, Naruto was annoying. And yet, already in the beginning, we see that her dream came true, from Narutos words. When he transformed into Sasuke, he said the EXACT words Sakura wanted to hear. You sure have a large, charming forehead. Makes me want to kiss it...
All I want... is for you to acknowledge me, This sentence made Naruto realise why he liked Sakura soo much, they both wanted acknowledgement. Really, Narutos plan backfire

Kishimoto interview on Road to NinjaEdit: Here is the Sakura interview by Kishimoto:
"Kishimito-sensei mentions that even though he would have liked to write some scenes with them, he hasn’t had the chance to include Sakura’s parents until now. In his mind, he had the image for Sakura’s parents, which include back-and-forth arguing matches, but he just never could find the right time to do so. With so much of the manga release, he thought nobody would have interest in them at this point, although he still decided for them to be in the movie."
You can watch it on that link --> http://www.saiyanisland.com/2012/07/masashi-kishimoto-sakura-interview-road-to-ninja-naruto-the-movie/
Kishimoto had plans for Sakura parents before! WHAT?! Why are you now showing them?

Here is the lastest video of Kishimoto talking about Road to Ninja. The next interview aired will be on Sakura! :iconcryforever: He hasn't forgotten about Sakura!

Road to Ninja- Sai and Guy profiles!Edit 3: Sai and Guy! I like Sais new look.

EDIT 2: Sakuras parents are revealed! :iconladygt: was right. I have yet to see the official release sketches but LadyGT found some in a trailer back in April (see image below-middle 2 images). Sakuras parents names are Haruno Kizashi and Haruno Mebuki. If anyone finds more info, let me know.

So Sakura gets the pink hair from her father!

And her mother is taller than her father AND Sakura seems to get her attitude form her mom while her dad seems more light hearted.

Why NaruSaku is referred to Heaven and EarthHeaven and Earth refers to two different scenes in the manga.
Chapter 64:
Before Team 7 heads off to the preliminary rounds, they open the "Heaven and Earth" scrolls in which summons Iruka, congratulating them on their advance. Before they go off, they ask about the scroll on the wall and Iruka explains, refering Naruto to Earth and Sakura to Heaven.

As said in the anime:
(thank you ~harunoanduzumaki
"If heavenly qualities are your desire
aquire wisdom; take your mind higher.
if earthly qualities are what you lack,
train your body; prepare to attack.
when heaven and earth are opened together
the perilous path will become riteous forever."
-Iruka (anime version)
Chapter 289:
Tenchi Bridge.
天地橋, Tenchi-kyō
天-Heaven
地-Earth

Sakuras confession- interview

by ~amandas-sketches, Oct 27, 2012, 12:13:47 PM
Journals / Personal

Discussion time:

So I seen several discussions on the Sakura confession, especially on Kishiotos interview on it. From what I gathered, this is the correct interview translation summed up:

One of the interviewers: “Sakura had always been worried about Naruto, but her actions towards Naruto seem to have a different feel from before, she seems very anxious about Naruto…How does she feel about Sasuke-kun?”

Kishimoto: “As for Sakura… Sasuke… what about Sasuke? Naruto is close and she worries about Naruto as well, but as expected, she [loves] Sasuke.

Interviewer: "Because of this, she acted quite haughty towards that guy. She used Naruto’s love for her and told him she loved him."

Kishimoto: "On the contrary…. I felt like depicting an honest girl, with a surprisingly stubborn impression.”

And Kishimoto also comments:

"So... she became such a character, but... well... from here on, maybe I should draw her showing a bit more spirit.
I figured I had placed her in a heroin-like situation
But from the readers I was told harshly that she wasn't heroin-ish at all
Perhaps I should show depict her a bit more like a heroin
Because you say 'Hinata Hinata,' I say 'She's not Hinata'"

Anyone else can correct or have a response to this?

Kishi is telling them like it is, Sakura is his character and he decided to put her in a situation she was conflicted over and could not resolve it clearly, she was caught between her love of Sasuke, what he became, how naruto tries to do so much for her it hurts, and how the promise around both her and sasuke were sources of pain. She was prepped to either get him to safety or even risk killing sasuke if it meant for naruto to actually hate her, she wanted to stop the suffering on both ends. It could have gone better but I see that with her whole we will fight together this time, sakura should finally get that position she wanted, helping naruto in a big way until the end.

Even with haters chanting Narusaku died at this point, theres too much saying otherwise, I mean not only did sakura hide the fact why she came, Naruto hid the truth about itachi from her, now its only a matter of time before sakura sees why Naruto is still after Sasuke aside from the promise. He still chases Sasuke for the promise (the bond of team 7 that binds the 3 of them and the relation Naruto and Sakura see Sasuke as an important friend, Naruto sees him like a brother Sakura loves him as far as 540).

Sakura is not Hinata and would haters be happy with another hinata? Hell 2 hinatas would have meant Sakura was steamrolled by every fight, sometimes its better how she was on the sidelines to develop in other ways, not the losing streak Hinata had when it came to combat and someone always getting hurt. Haters have to deal with it, Sakura is Kishi's character and he does what he feels is best with her.

I hate how the fandom constantly compares Sakura/Hinata. It's ridiculous and most of the time, they do it to belittle Sakura or bash her. Because they constantly force it to make her look terrible, I'VE been forced to conpare him. it's so damn annoying. <.<

Kishimoto: "You say 'Hinata, Hinata', I say 'She's not Hinata.'"

Damn straight. If Sakura was like Hinata, I wouldn't like her. End of story.

~DioFiely00 Apr 22, 2013 Hobbyist Interface Designer

Dam right! I would never like her if Sakura was like Hinata neither. The way Sakura now is the way Naruto fallen in love with her.

~Katlu Nov 4, 2012 Hobbyist Traditional Artist

"she's not hinata"-I think that this is the best thing i've ever read. I'm really tired of people comparing them to each other. They are waaay different and just because Sakura doesn't have some great tragedy in her past doesn't mean she isn't still a great heroin

~amandas-sketches Nov 14, 2012 General Artist

YUS!

~mydearbeloved Nov 4, 2012

Yeah, this is the most accurate translation we'll get, I think. Also, I think "loves" is in brackets because Kishi never actually said "loves," he sorta just trails off. It's somewhat implied, like in Yamato's speech to Sakura and when Sakura was healing Hinata - she never actually says "loves," she trails off, because the verb goes at the end in Japanese.

Regardless, thanks for putting this together! I hope Kishimoto stays true to his word and has Sakura be more of heroine (be like Naruto, never go back on your words, Kishi!).

~amandas-sketches Nov 14, 2012 General Artist

It could have just been that there were a lot of conversations so the person witnessing and taking note of the interview couldn't hear and filled it in.

~nosidam96 Oct 31, 2012 Hobbyist General Artist

Heck ya she's not hinata!

~amandas-sketches Oct 31, 2012 General Artist

Thank goodness.

~nosidam96 Nov 4, 2012 Hobbyist General Artist

ya we don't need two shy stocker chicks Naruto and her never even talk
