The Naruto Pairing War Closing To The End
Ok, let's be honest with this. Yes, we should wait for the end to conclude everything. However, there are times that all you need is the settlement of two pairings choices in one scenario. Case in point, NaruSaku vs. SasuSaku. While some would say the answer is easy, let's play this "war" that people seem to be having. Look, it all comes down to this. NH left a final letter that reads, "It's up to you, SasuSaku." Say what you want about side shipping, whether you do or not, it does in fact rely on them. You have to end NS by removing one of them in there and the one that is going on have Sakura in both. Now, the setup, let's take a look at them.
The Current Setup
We have Team 7 escaping from the moon eye plan. Everyone else is under the spell. Edo Hokages are still around. Sasuke needs Naruto because well for many reasons, but here, he needs him to take down Madara. For once, he thinking all around, rather than "Me, me, me!" Anyway, Sasuke has not yet revealed his plan. Sakura's developments with Naruto has been positive. Sakura's developments with Sasuke has been negative, with questionable interpretations by Kakashi, so hard to say what these developments mean. Naruto cares for his friends, but since they're out, now he only has Team 7, which by the way already show that with Sakura. Hinata is out of the picture until the plan is reversed, which could happen at the end of everything. Now, it's only Team 7 and Edo.
To Keep Eye On
Ok, this is something that people should be highly aware of and pretty much a game changer in terms of pairing war. So, let's go over.
1) Minato - He is still around, even though he's far. Remember, he can go back quickly with hirashin. That said in pairing related field, we were left off with him establishing Naruto's girlfriend is Sakura, more or less. But the main one is the parallel of Kushina. Now, he's still around, so who to say 631 is the last pairing talk. Reminder, only Team 7 is around. First of all, Hinata lost her chance once more, perhaps her final chance. So, yeah, the idea of "I changed my mind" might be gone for good. That said it has been argued that he's also a plot armor for NaruSaku, because well, he believes Sakura is Naruto's girlfriend, so anything else could be like a bad lie and not a good sendoff for Minato, unless there's another message to it, which still can lead to NaruSaku. Face it, he is highly valuable to this whole war. Parental approval is like the highest form of love being established from all worlds. So, keep your eye on him at all cost.
2) Obito - For a guy who seem to have so many chances to die, he sure outlive his due time. What's funny is that the idea of Rin's parallel is still alive. Now, I'm not too invested in that idea, it could happen. You can finally put it to rest when he's put to sleep...forever. Not only that, but there are different ways to address something pairing related from Obito, especially since he now know the whole truth of Rin. Now, of course, he will talk to Kakashi when he has the chance once more, but the way Naruto reacted to his arrival back in chapter 676 seems like a clue that him and Obito will interact again as well. This could be dangerous because anything can happen with Naruto and Obito, especially since they know they can relate. Not to mention, Sakura is there to hear the story. In fact, I wonder if there's a chance for Sakura to talk to Obito on why he saved her or anything she may want to drop in. Either way, keep your eye on him at all cost.
3) Sasuke - Now, we don't know what exactly is the purpose of Sakura's downfall relationship with Sasuke, but unless Sasuke exposes his goal, it's not going to be anything good. In fact, the hint of his goal is already not good, starting with Naruto being cut down by him. If she knows, man, it may end already. Now, anything can happen, but again, that goal is what keeps the dark momentum alive, let alone the fact Naruto and Sasuke will fight. Lastly, it is shown that Sasuke puts his target first over everything. So, SasuSaku fans need him to get his game on bad. This is their main hope. Time will tell how it ends.
4) Naruto - He's a very caring guy and he just witnessed the world ending before him. Now, he only has Team 7 to look after and this could scare him since they can die rather than being trapped. That said chapter 676 could indicate that Naruto will witness worse for Sakura to be in danger. He already reacted in a very frightened manner, imagine now. Again, he lost everyone already, now Team 7 is left. He can't afford to lose them. So how it relates to pairing war? Everything. Naruto will protect them and again, Madara can attack them individually as well as kill them one-by-one. Sakura is included. The great danger that Hagoromo warned is coming true, so again, everyone is asleep, but those who are awake shall die. Naruto will do a lot of protection and may handicap him from fighting Madara head on. Sakura will take notice. Things will get worse. But for pairing wise, it will get exciting. Heck, even almost killing Sakura in front of Naruto will stir up incredibly. So, yes, NaruSaku fans don't have to worry so much of his reaciton, just hope he can protect them.
What Is To Come
As you can see, there are a lot of stuff to pass through for SasuSaku. Not trying to be biased, but that's a realistic view on what's going on now. Now, everything can be avoided if Minato and Obito die before anything can be settled as well as somehow have Naruto not being in presence. Not to mention, Sasuke should be at least "good". Well, the winner will be determined very soon. In all honesty, there shouldn't be any NaruSaku moment to make other credible, and I do mean moment that is pure romantic love undertone, no assumption. No more of that. Also, Sakura must not think Sasuke's situation as a Team 7 situation rather than romantic love. So, time will tell who will come as the winner. The war must end.
I Feel Like I Should Say This...
So I just witnessed pairing war arguments like crazy and I just don't understand... Ok while this is for the Fandom Teen Wolf this is just my thought for all fandoms, Teen Wolf is just a main one of mine that I see a lot of pairing wars about. Anyway so Im sure this isnt a surprise but Sterek is my favorite pairing and for some reason it works for me I can explain some if people want but J feel like I dont have to explain myself. Their fictional characters and while its not canon, I think between all characters there's chemistry. Which is why I like all pairing because all the characters in their own different way can work together I think whether it works for evweyone or not ists up to them but I feel people I have a right to love who they love and on the other the people who love do not need to be so passionate as to poke a sleeping bear. I know I cant dictate how people act as I sais early people havw the right to love who they love i dont know I just wish everyone would get along especially within the same fandom because we all share the common love for the show but maybe I'm just a everyone gets along, love all around kind of a person. I felt like needed to post this, so here it is.
Is the war over? I hear one is screaming, "Fall back!" I am just wondering..
You know it's getting bad when you start to wish one or two characters to die.
Something I realized...
I realized that now since Madara is going to be focused for time being aka next volume, that means I got to suffer 10 more chapters of "pairing war" and many bs throwing around. Oh no!!!!
Shipping war?
Person one: I like the color blue Person two: eh I like red better, but blue is cool too Naruhina/Narusaku fan: I like the color blue Narusaku/Naruhina fan: OMFG ARE YOU SRIOUS?!?! BLUE??? THAT IS SUCH AN UGLY COLUR YOU STOOPID GET A LIFE OMG TROLLL!!!! We all have one of those people in our fandom... We all have one
In a pairing war on fan fiction, do the participants need to bash the character that they hate?
Well, I think it's okay if you also see that it really happened in the canon, but how if the truth is the opposite things and your non OTP become canon? It also means that your bashing character make him/her become OOC in your fan fiction right? Oh yeah, haters gonna hate... and that's why, I hate pairing war.
