She’s often nagging at him about certain things, once said she “hates him” which me and my brother tell each other a lot without actually meaning it, about him not making good choices or about him acting like an idiot sometimes, but she also has a sort of inferiority complex going on for both of her teammates. Sakura’s always acting so mature and stuff, but she’s often secretly in on his antics, and sometimes even starts to go along with him on them, rooting for him even. For an example, Sakura and Naruto’s bond reminds me quite a bit of the bond my brother and I have(of course it’s not exactly like it, or it would be really weird). Though it’s not necessarily “canon” since it’s not in the manga, but still) It is the initial idea Kishimoto had in mind when he created her, so I figured why not mention it? I mean, they’re not really active in her life, and honestly, she seemed closer to Ino who saved her from the bullying when nobody else did. My father died when I was 9 and even before that I barely had much association with him, so I often project onto older males I respect and question if it’s anything like that to have a father of sorts(kind of like Naruto’s relationships with Iruka or Jiraiya, or even Kakashi in some sense) and I dealt with emotional abuse from my mother, constantly comparing me to my Brother growing up, so I kind of understand Sasuke’s obsession with bettering himself and the way his father would belittle him, and heck, even Sakura doesn’t seem to be all that close to her parents(if RTN has any merit. I also like Naruto and Sasuke because I can relate to them both. They’re not perfect, they do stupid things together, and they all have their own fair share of flaws. They have falling outs, and banter, tease each other. They were a team and were by each other’s sides a lot, through near death situations, they all did what they could to keep that from falling apart at some point or another. ![]() I think it’s because realistically relationships and bonds have never gone that smoothly for me, and even with romance aside, Team 7 is a family first and foremost. Sometimes I wonder why I like the dynamics of NaruSaku, SasuSaku and even SasuNaru as apposed to a pairing dynamic that many see as “perfect” in every perceivable way like NaruHina, which has its cliche happily ever after.
