also abt my last rb the reason so many girls in naruto are.... like that...... & especially how dirty they were done in the ending comes from how misogynistic kishimoto is and u can’t debate with me on that ! to say sakura and many other girls in naruto (say, hinata, whose only personality trait is her dedication to naruto) were victims of bad writing would be valid and absolutely correct. but fact remains that canonically, bad writing or not, sakura haruno is just a Bad character mainly and possibly only in her relation to sasuke, and with how sasuke and sakura ended up in this twisted marriage bullshit being confirmed by kishimoto himself as sakura “forcing herself” on sasuke she is now forever ruined in my eyes. i can’t help but see her as a r*pist (which she is bc it was clear in the context of the interview). and you can try to excuse anything she did but that & in conclusion sakura haruno is the epitome of nice guy syndrome + she’s not what i would call a ‘strong woman’ either!!! im tired of kicking ass physically being the only reason some female characters that are otherwise bland and unlikable seen as ‘strong’.
