Glad we start this with agreement :)

As you yourself said, Neji played big part there. Besides Naruto is a caring person and Hinata appeared as a nice girl. He was not alone who responded negatively to NejiHina fight, even tutors jumped in. Neji was taking things too far. It was not a fight but vengeance full of bullying. It was not sportsmanship any more.

This whole vengeance thing is not about Hinata but Naruto's personality. He was bitter towards Gaara about Rock Lee too as far as I remember.


The other 2 points show what we knew from day one, Hinata loves Naruto. Nothing new. A one sided support for Naruto.
Sakura did all of that for Sasuke back in Season 1 too, one sided again.

However, it is Sakura who rushed to Naruto the first time he transformed and got herself injured. She rushed despite knowing the danger. So saying that Sakura never cared is far fetched. It just got less attention in future chapters.

In order for relationship to work, it has to go both ways. While I can understand NaruHina and am ok with it, I will never understand SasuSaku.

This is why ShikaTema works for me cause it came from both ways. NaruHina and SasuSaku were far more one sided, especially SasuSaku.

I don't have that many problems with NaruHina, a seed was there even if it was handled badly as you yourself agreed. But SasuSaku is just a mess.

Well I certainly was guilty of getting off track as well so maybe instead of going on and on about the ending and how it should have happened why don't we get back to talking about the actual sequel in this thread...?

Here's something I'm wondering the glasses on Salade...thinking about it maybe its a keepsake from Karin? Or does anyone think Salade's eyes are really that bad? Also which kid do you think the next chapter should focus on next?

I like to think that her eyes are fine but too powerful. Maybe her Sharingan awoke too early in her life and she was unable to control it at the time. The Uzumaki's were known for their sealing abilities so maybe there is a seal on the glasses meant to keep her Sharingan in check.

I doubt about Sarada have Sharingan .

It is just an early sketch .
How do one awaken their Sharingan again ?

I believe it is from a moment of highly heightened emotions. Sasuke originally awakened his when his clan was massacred and he was really young then. He merely rediscovered it and learned how to use it against Haku.

hhmm I think that sounds more correct, that's definitely the explanation for Sasuke, I wonder then how does a normal Uchiha awaken the Sharingan in moments of peace? I am sure its something attainable through training at least...afterall a clan massacre, won't happen everyday lol

Yeah, I completely agree with you on SasuNar...oopss SasuSaku :p

IMO, Sasuke is the worst written character with the worst development in the series 2nd season, but that's not entirely his fault either. While I can understand Kishi's way of thinking and the direction he gave to Sasuke but I lost all faith and hope after he attempted to kill Sakura (and he did stab Karin while wearing a psychopathic face :upset:), that was way too unnecessary and just made Sasuke more of an @sshole than ever.

In comparison, Itachi did kill all of his clan including his parents, he didn't go for the kill for other ninja of Konoha, Kakashi got done in by Tsukuyomi but that did not kill him (Itachi could have done so had he truly wanted).

In short, while it was understandable that Sasuke wanted to walk the path of solitude, Kishi did not have to make him become or appear like such a psychopath

I just hope Kishi gives Sasuke a accountable reason for leaving his family like that
Please please Kishi, please don't make him a melancholic bastard again :heh:

The Uchiha have a great devotion to love and friendship by nature. just add in a stressful and emotional situation involving friendship or love and the Sharingan will activate. It could even just be having a family member or friend that you are really close to die, though not necessarily in combat, like maybe from a sickness or an accident. That would likely create the heightened emotions needed to activate it.

So let's say , if Sarada saw Karin casually kisses Sasuke ( hell , that what she gonna do anyway ) will it be enough ?:heh:
Or take to the next level , Karin does Vader pose and said No i'm your mother .:heh:

so I do think the Sharingan is trainable like how Kakashi accessed his Mangyou by reminding himself of all the friends he lost over the years, of course mind you nothing beats real life experiences such as witnessing people die RIGHT in front of you of course

No Kakashi activated his Mangekyou when he was forced to kill Rin. That was shown in the manga.

heh had to reread that chapter and yeah you're right...strange I forgot that lol I guess amnesia isn't just affecting the people who awaken Sharingans...then I guess Kakashi forgot he had it until after the time skip then...I still think it should be something trainable though...just alot harder lol
