I'm not Sakura's biggest fan (though I greatly prefer her to Hinata, if I was forced to decide which I liked more), but she's not really a 'bitch' as you put it. At least not anymore, if she ever was.

Well, she's certainly not a "bitch", but that half-assed confession of hers about 100 chapters back really made me dislike her. I mean, I already didn't really like her that much, since she never paid attention to Naruto's feelings and was too concerned with Sasuke, but that confession part was the final straw. That was a BIG insult to Naruto's feelings as well as her own, and I can understand why people(including myself) don't mind labeling her as one.

Naruto helped Hinata when she was young then again giving motivation Neji Vs Hinata. Got revenge for hinata against naruto vs Neji.

Hinata acknowledged Naruto before they even graduated from the academy. She was the first person to acknowledge him actually, while Sakura and Ino were on a Sasuke craze =0/. You say Hinata didn't really do much, but I think her practically giving her life to fight Pain for Naruto speaks volumes about how much she cares for him. Sakura may have helped Naruto on missions and such, but she's never put herself in the position of helping Naruto
KNOWING(this word is important) that she would most likely be killed with 0% chance of success.

Redemption through death won't allow Sasuke to make up for his actions and it would be more original if Sasuke becomes a wanderer rather then having a Darth Vader death.

Hmmm, I agree that Sasuke can't be redeemed if he dies and, in that sense, I could see him surviving all of this. Still, I don't believe that he will reform before it's all too late. This isn't like the Kurama/Naruto relationship, where they have time to come to an understanding with one another. The ONLY way I see him even REMOTELY surviving is if whomever the final boss of Naruto(whether it's Tobi, Madara, or Orokabuto, or someone other than Sasuke himself) makes Sasuke and Naruto team up, and Sasuke appears to be dead but actually survives in the end.
