I’m a girl, I’ve been a Naruto’s fan for seven years. I’ve been reading Naruto since I was 12, at this age, I had my first abusive relationship.
He treated me like shit, he told me over and over that I was annoying and even mocked my looks, he lied about me to all of his friends to make me look like his ‘obsessed fangirl’ and in the end I found out he never liked me. This man was abusing me just for fun. He made me cry and feel worthless so many times, he even crated a 'hateclub’. Yes, this man created a HATECLUB for the GIRL who were abused by him.
I used to look up to Sakura all this years. She was just like me. Underappreciated by an arrogant boy who she really liked. All Sakura ever wanted was to be noticed and loved by Sasuke, however, he treated her like shit. Like worthless thrash. He didn’t give a shit about Sakura and wasn’t interested in her during 698 chapters.
I grew up with Sakura, in Shippuden’s she had become a strong and confident woman (at least until the last two chapters) and she was starting to realize how Sasuke made her suffer. Her confessions to Naruto was fake, but the words weren’t. I wouldn’t care if she ends up alone or with someone, even though I ship NaruSaku and SakuHina, all I was expecting from Kishimoto was a well-writen character development, and he threw that away.
Look at how Sasuke treats Sakura during the entire manga:
Then, in chapter 699 he just had to apologize so she could say 'sorry for what’? Really, Kishimoto? Not satisfied with ignoring all the abuse, he made Sakura become a housewife. He showed us how Naruto and Sasuke were doing their thing, but what about her development as a medical ninja? Wasn’t she supposed to surpass Tsunade? Kishimoto could have showed us the 'medical-nin Sakura’ at the hospital with her daughter, but no, he rather make her a housewife.
Sasuke had made Sakura cry and had been insulting her during the plot so many times. He tried to kill her THREE TIMES. He has strangled and called her useless in the pictures above. That’s how you want girls to be 'appreciated’, Kishimoto?
I used to always look up to Sakura, I wanted to become a strong young woman like her, I wanted to bloom and become a beautiful flower like Sakura. You ruined my favorite character who helped me getting through abuse, Kishimoto.
All Sasuke had to do was apologize so she would forget about all the abusive things he has done to her. That’s how you want woman to be portrayed in your precious story, Kishimoto. You want us to be portrayed as dreamless housewives, it doesn’t matter if men makes us feel like nothing, it doesn’t matter if this man had struggled, tried to kill her and even created a genjutsu where he stabbs her in the chest. As long as he says 'sorry’ any girl in the world can forgive him and forget about all responsibilities and accomplishments just to ask him if she could join him in his travel and further in the manga she gave birth to his daughter.
Sasuke crushes Sakura’s feelings and dignity in all possible ways and even so, you make her MARRY HIM and not satisfied, MAKE HER BE THE MOTHER OF HIS DAUGHTER and only show us the 'HOUSEWIFE SAKURA’. Because that’s what we, women, are to you. Walking-bodies with no feelings, who doesn’t deserve to be respected and loved. If the abuser says 'sorry’ it’s completely okay.
You destroyed my favorite character.
You’re making me feel ashamed of everything I’ve been through.
You dismayed me.
Thank you, Kishimoto, for thinking about all the girls that reads your manga. That’s what you’re teaching them.
SasuSaku fans, don’t even reply me, you’re just gonna make fun of my suffering and try to convince me that this shitty pairing isn’t abusive. I hope you’re happy that this crap became canon.
