The general pairings thread is here to talk about other pairings not including Naruto (the character) in it: http://forums.narutofan.com/showthread.php?t=95970

Naruto isn't about ninjas, action and comedy but there is a love aspect to it. Some may argue that a character might be in love with another, but not all the pairings have been shown.

Who is your favorite pairing with Naruto?

My favorite is Naruto and Sakura.

Shika/Temari FTW

TenshiOni
02-19-2007, 01:51 PM
I'm a fan of Shikamaru x Temari, myself.

Asuma x Kurenai = win, as well.

When it comes to Naruto, I'm fine with him ending up with either Hinata or Sakura. Though, if Sasuke does end up with anyone, I'd like for it to be Sakura.

I also think Chouji and Ino should hook-up for the irony of it all.

02-19-2007, 01:55 PM
Well, my favorite would still be Naru/Hina, but I'm also a fan of Shika/Tem and Ino/Chou.

I believe narusaku has a higher chance of happening, due to the way the series is pointing and just logic in general. I forsee a pairing debate in the future of this thread.

Esponer
02-19-2007, 04:54 PM
It strikes me that Kishimoto is rather uninterested in the female characters of the series, and I'm not convinced that he intends to expand upon this aspect much at all within the series. This is just a guess, but I suspect that Kishimoto would feel uncomfortable fleshing out romantic relationships between his characters. Indeed, almost all of the romantic interests within the storyline have been unrequited and unnoticed, and the one that we have reason to suspect exists and is requited (Asuma and Kurenai) has not been discussed much.

If the Naruto world was to become reality, however, and the future of the world and its characters to depend solely upon the best approximation of what Kishimoto has written of them, I believe Naruto and Sakura would end up dating and perhaps remaining together. Tenten, I would think, is more likely to be involved with Rock Lee than Neji, but I'm not very convinced by either. Temari and Shikamaru is one couple I definitely believe would occur.

Kyon
02-19-2007, 04:56 PM
Congratulations on the first dupe thread! :nuts

There is a pairing thread somewhere else in here...oh well.

I don't see any pairings really happening, but if they were to then I think Shikamaru and Temari have the best chance of hooking up.

Gaara of the Desert
02-19-2007, 04:57 PM
I believe that Naruto and Sakura will be together. As will Temari and Shikamaru. Kisso is taking things slowly. In fact, if Naruto didn't make Sakura angry when he came back, they would be even closer.

02-19-2007, 05:11 PM
I still don't see how people are saying "Naruto and Sakura are will be together"

Is it because Sasuke is out of the picture?...i don't understand, can someone please explain that to me? :huh

Hopefully there won't be any more romantic anything in the manga.

I think the in that interview a year ago with Kishimoto talking about romance in his manga was refering to Asuma and Kuernai's...marriage/child on the way etc.

I like Sasuke x Naruto (best pairing of all times with the most development :love) and Kiba x Hinata (because Kiba actually notices Hinata). Sasuke x Naruko for crack (and Naruko is the prettiest female of the series) as well as Gaara x Lee (it's fun :P).

I support NaruSaku out of spite to NaruHina fans.

There are countless other real reasons why people like it, just go to the NaruSaku FC to find out.

- Orochimaru x Kabuto, my OTP and canon :yell.
- Gaara x Sakura, the best match possible :thumbs.
- Kakashi x Iruka, the fandom simply PWNS and it supports ma theory of team 7 as a family !
- anything with Deidara, because he is hot like that :amuse

- SasuNaru/SasuSaku/NaruSaku/SasuNaruSaku, just enjoy reading fanfiction and looking at fanart of those. Still wouldn't call myself a fan of those.

Good observation and quoted for truth.

I always said Kishi would have been better off writing for Zerosum rather than Shonen Jump :laugh.

Well, not everyone who likes NaruSaku (or any other pairing for that matter) thinks or is even convinced it will actually happen. Some people just like the thought of two characters together.

I sometimes enjoy reading some NaruSaku fanfiction too and I don't think this pairing will ever become canon. I don't see why it should or how it would help the story. Sakura and Naruto have a wonderful friendship, I just like their relationship, be it romantic or not.

Same opinion here, I think we will get to see more romance like Asuma x Kurenai.

Kishi seems not to be interested in the younger cast regarding serious romance. He missed a couple of chances to emphasise on them and develop bonds. I guess he really just isn't interested.

I am not much of a pairing person.

The only pairing I believe in at least a bit is Shikamaru x Temari because there have been actually some hints of affection on both sides. Asuma x Kurenai I like too.

There is just one other pairing I like and that's Naruto x Sasuke.

☆Indigo☆
02-19-2007, 05:56 PM
Ok, ok. My two OTPs are ShikaTema and ShinoHina. =3
Some of my other favorite pairings:
SasuNaru, GaaLee, AsuKure, NaruHina, NejiHina, KibaHina, ShikaIno, ShikaSaku, GaaSaku, KakaAnko, GenmaShizune, JiraTsu, NejiTen, ChouIno, InoSaku, LeeSaku, OroKabu, ShinoKiba...honestly, the list goes on.
The only pairings that I'm totally outright AGAINST are NaruSaku, SasuSaku, and teacher x student pairings, especially AsuShika.

The ones I really want to see happen are KibaHina and SasuNaru.

But I also like team 8 threesome :wink, ShinoKiba and SasuNaruko.

I don't think NaruSaku will happen. :P Sasuke is still there. SasuSaku would make more sense to me.

My favorites are NaruHina, SasuSaku, and ShikaIno. I also like ShikaTema, ShinoHina, KibaHina, SasuHina... Hinaeveryone... XD But the one that will probably happen is NaruHina.

Why doesn't this thread have a poll?

02-19-2007, 06:26 PM
The only paring I really care about is Narusaku. The other characters I don't give a damn about their parings.

yay! my 900th post!

~*~Gratz to you, on your 900th post~*~ smile-big
But isn't that a little fickle on her part? Because Sasuke is no longer here, she would just turn her attention to Naruto.
For so many years she's cared about him(Sasuke), and even in-directly said confessed her feeling to him...but it's true, Naruto does care about her, but not in any "love-love" type feelings.

I don't think this pairing will ever become canon. I don't see why it should or how it would help the story. Sakura and Naruto have a wonderful friendship, I just like their relationship, be it romantic or not.

Kishi seems not to be interested in the younger cast regarding serious romance. He missed a couple of chances to emphasise on them and develop bonds. I guess he really just isn't interested.

I agree with you 100% on these two parts, AmiChi.
You literally took all those words right out of my mouth/mind.
In a way, it's a little sad that he wasn't interested in some bonds that really seem interesting to the storyline IMO. He's now leaving people to guess who is going to be paired with who now. >_<

I'm a NaruHina supporter, but I don't mind if Naruto ends up with Sakura, JUST AS LONG AS Hinata doesn't end up with anyone. Hinata is just too cute/cool/everything to end up with anyone besides Naruto.

I feel that the real deciding factor in what will happen is Sasuke. If Sasuke comes back, Sakura will be all over him. A NaruHina and SakuSasu ending seems the most fitting. Sakura loved Sasuke since they were little and Hinata loved Naruto since they were little, there's a connection there. I could go on forever explaining why it's perfect, but I don't want to start a huge argument.

As for everyone else, I really don't care who they end up with :P

Under normal the only one that would make sense is Sai/Sakura. For yaoi, it would be Gaara/Naruto or Sasuke/Naruto. Nothing else... imo.

And Naruto/Hinata isn't crack. Is has enough evidence to be in the canon or can become canon category.

Anyway my favorite pairing is NaruHina. And the only one I support for that matter.

Excuse me but WTF ?
How is Sasuke x Naruto a CRACK pairing :huh ?

This pairing had the most development through the whole series and is one of the few pairings that actually had two-sided development. It makes more sense than all the one-sided het pairings in Naruto combined. Yes, that includes NaruHina, whether you like it or not.

If you call Sasuke x Naruto crack than Naruto x Hinata is twice as much crack !
When did they last met ? 100 chapters ago ?

Also, what's a crack pairing and what's not is a matter of how you look at it and personal interpretation. Don't twist other peoples posts around just because they have a different view at things as you. Everyone is entitled in his own opinion.

I thought crack meant that there wasnt any evidence that they could possibly be a canon pairing. Take Gaara x Naruto for example. When was there any evidence that these two could have a chance of being together? NaruHina has evidence for its possibility which is why it isnt considered crack(by most).

I knew as soon as I reread my post that someone would get angry at me for putting Naruto and Sasuke in the crack category >.<. You are right, Naruto and Sasuke does have the most development, all that needs to happen is Naruto and Sasuke turn gay, which is a possibility. I should go back and edit that. Crack can be determined by your interpretation but there is a line, crack is given to the pairings with what most people agree has the least amount of probability happening. Just because you think it wont happen doesnt mean it's crack yet. I honestly dont consider SasuNaru crack (I made a mistake in my copy pasta) even though I dont think a romantic relationship with them is possible.

No, you have it wrong. Crack pairings are where the romantic interactions are pretty much non-existent or not possible due to a variety of reasons between characters. To say NaruHina is not possible is basically implying that you don't observe what really is going on romantically between the two, most of their interaction is NaruHina based.

The fact that there is a likelihood of success of them hitting it off in the future because there aren't many limiters in terms of character and plot development makes it a normal pairing.

Interesting discussion this has turned into here, but I have to disagree and agree on some parts.

To me, a pairing is a crack pairing when the two characters have never or barely interact and if the pairing actually doesn't make any sense, for example Itachi x Sakura or Shino x Kankurou.

I also call a pairing "crack" if the two characters involved have shown no real affection towards each other and it has no "evidence" and "moments" in canon to actually make one think they could develop something under certain circumstances. Sakura and Sai for example have not shown any affection towards each other, making this pairing a bit of a "crack" candidate.

Sometimes I also call pairings that have a high comedy factor such as DeiTobi crack, but actually DeiTobi is the only Deidara pairing besides SasoDei that makes sense. So no, it's not really a crack pairing either, though you can argue that.

However, SasuNaru on the other hand, is definitely not a crack pairing.

How the hell do people come up with this stuff :huh ?
This pairing makes perfectly sense, even people not into it have already agreed on that. In fact, SasuNaru makes more sense than most of the other pairings in the Naruto fandom do, so I don't see how anyone could actually consider it "crack" unless you have a strange idea of what "crack" is.

Naruto/Sasuke is crack in the terms of romantic pairings due to the general lack of homosexual relationships in the genre and the fact that Naruto has already clearly established that Sasuke's place in Naruto's life is as a BROTHER. That's what makes the pairing crack, despite the two having probably the most interaction out of any two characters in the manga.

Generally, I consider a pairing to be "crack" if the development of romance between the two is extremely unfeasible/unlikely. Pairings like Naruto/Hinata, Naruto/Sakura, and Sasuke/Sakura are not crack. Pairings like Shino/Ino, Gaara/Tenten, and Kakuzu/Tsunade are crack, as well as any homosexual pairings, except perhaps Zabuza/Haku.

Sorry but I disagree. Just because it's unlikely that it will happen or happen with a big love confession, kisses and 20 kids offspring doesn't make or even justifies to call it a "crack" pairing.

Yes, Naruto considers Sasuke a brother and has an obsession with getting him back. However, there is already a strong bond between those two characters that developed two-sided what other pairings lack. This bond has - be it in canon or not - the best chances to develop further. To me (and a lot of other people I guess too) it matters more if a pairing actually makes sense given by the development the two characters went through together and the interaction between them.

I don't see how the fact that one character who hasn't shown any real deep affection towards anyone except that one character makes the conclusion that if anyone will come closer to that character, it will be the one character who already has the base for it, is unlikely just because the genre of manga speaks against it. IMHO that matters a lot more than if the characters involved are a female and a male or if there exists an one-sided crush or not.

But maybe that's just me :oh.

Er, for the definition of "crack pairing" that I used, it is indeed an accurate term. I realize that Naruto/Sasuke has a great deal of development and is two-sided. However, it has developed as a brotherly love, not a romantic love. Considering that and the fact that Naruto seems to be not only straight, but also rather homophobic, I consider a romantic Naruto/Sasuke relationship to be crack. I'm not trying to insult or degrade Naruto/Sasuke or yaoi in general, but I just don't see it happening.

Unless the author says specific characters are infact homosexual, all yaoi pairings are crack. Why? because storys work with the basic assumption that all characters are straight. Now i dont mean to offend anybody but no matter how much you think they would be cute together as a couple, the releashionship is assumed to be close friendship AND NOTHING MORE.

So unless you can prove to me that they are infact gay, any homosexual pairing is crack. Whether it be leegara or narusasu it doesnt matter, between two straight men no romantic relashionship is possible.

How the hell is Naruto a homophobe? Where have you found in any way, shape or form, information to make you believe Naruto is afraid of homosexuals?
Never has he ever said or done anything to show he hates or is afraid of them. If you think about it, he's never actually proven that he's not gay or bi. I mean, yes he had a crush on Sakura, but that's basically gone now that he's older, and everyone has little crushes when they're younger, they don't really mean anything.
Maybe it's just me, but I don't see any proof that Naruto is homophobic, or even straight for that matter.

this discussion is pointless because ALL pairings are crack, only the canon ones are not.

it does not matter if two guys or two girls or a girl and a guy, as long as there is no twosided romantic interest the pairing is crack.

naruto does not love hinata and the pairing is onesided since forever. people who speak of romantic development between naruto and hinata must be in denial because there is no romantic development unless there is two characters being romantically interested in each others. end of story.

same goes for sasusaku, there is no romantic development, there is just onesided romantic interest. how can one speak of romantic development between two characters if the one character has already said and shown and whatnot that he is not i repeat not interested in romance with the other character?

Naruto has twice demonstrated an aversion to homosexuality: Once in the beginning, with his reaction to the Naruto/Sasuke kiss, and a second time during his training with Kakashi, when Naruto misinterpreted what Kakashi meant when Kakashi said he liked Naruto (During chapter 330). Of course, having just hit the refresh button on my browser, someone has already provided a manga scan...

And yes, even if you call it "just a crush", Naruto's infatuation with Sakura is an indication that he is straight. Plus, even if it's primarily meant as teasing now, Naruto asking Sakura on "dates" post time jump continue to indicate that he is, in fact, straight.

this discussion is pointless because ALL pairings are crack, only the canon ones are not.

it does not matter if two guys or two girls or a girl and a guy, as long as there is no twosided romantic interest the pairing is crack.

naruto does not love hinata and the pairing is onesided since forever. people who speak of romantic development between naruto and hinata must be in denial because there is no romantic development unless there is two characters being romantically interested in each others. end of story.

same goes for sasusaku, there is no romantic development, there is just onesided romantic interest. how can one speak of romantic development between two characters if the one character has already said and shown and whatnot that he is not i repeat not interested in romance with the other character?

Eh, it's overly simplified to boil it down to two groups. You need at least three.

Canon: That which has been concretely established, like Asuma/Kurenai.

Possibly canon: Pairings that haven't been concretely established, but have received development or indication in that direction, like Naruto/Hinata, Naruto/Sakura, Sasuke/Sakura, and Shikamaru/Temari.

Crack: Pairings that have very little or no romantic development or interaction, like Shino/Ino, Gaara/Tsunade, and countless others. Pairings like Naruto/Sasuke also fall into this group, because even though the relationship has received a great deal of development, it has been firmly established as a brotherly relationship and is extremely unlikely to become romantic.

Prove to us that they're straight.

Like Drackcove said, the way it works is "Straight until indicated otherwise". However, Naruto's actions have indicated a tendency towards heterosexuality, and what can be interpreted as homophobia. The possibility of Naruto being gay is extremely remote, just like the chances of Naruto/Sasuke becoming romantic.

Seriously, it would be faster to list the pairings I don't like than the pairings I do. And even those I'm willing to give a shot if it's done well. Notable cracks include ItaHana, LeeHina, AnkoKisame (she'd totally be the seme) and as I said before, GaaLee. And to make it even with some femslash, SakuIno.

OMFG, FANDOM IS SO SERIOUS BUZINESS !!!
Sorry, but the thread made it seem like that just needed to be said now.

Naruto has shown heterosexual tendancies multiple times.
That doesn't mean he cannot be bi.

Also, he once said Sasuke was good looking (and cool) and blushed more toward males than females and wants to rip Orochimaru apart for saying Sasuke belongs to him :huh. Not that it would mean anything, obviously :amuse.

I honestly dont know about Sasuke, Naruto is definetely straight. Both Naruto and Sasuke seemed disgusted by their "kiss" if I remember correctly...
Ehrm... that doesn't prove a thing.

They were twelve year olds at that time. And you have to take the situation into account as well. Yes, I am pretty sure they would both have been just as disgusted when they had been a female and a male. That example actually quite fails.

Everyone would (should) be disgusted when he gets to kiss someone he doesn't consider his lover or that close to him at the time. Regardless of the persons gender. Yes.


this discussion is pointless because ALL pairings are crack, only the canon ones are not.

it does not matter if two guys or two girls or a girl and a guy, as long as there is no twosided romantic interest the pairing is crack.

naruto does not love hinata and the pairing is onesided since forever. people who speak of romantic development between naruto and hinata must be in denial because there is no romantic development unless there is two characters being romantically interested in each others. end of story.

LOL, that surely is a way to look at things :laugh !


About "Anyone is straight until proven otherwise" I just say:

Haku & Zabuza,
Akatsuki,
Orochimaru,
Kabuto,
Kimimaro (or 'Mr. Blush', like I prefer to call him)

You can maybe argue some of those, but Orochimaru definitely is so far from being straight that everyone who believes he is must be in the deepest denial of all times.

I think he at least had a bit of a point this time. It's indeed romantic interest and not romantic development. Only two people who are in love or start to fall in love have romantic development. One-sided crushes can hardly be considered having romantic development (especially SasuSaku and NaruHina).

You know, Anti-Pairings are just as serious buziness as Pro-Pairings.
It's essential to prove other people of their pairings wrong to cover own insecurities even if most won't admit that :P.

If I wasn't the insane mind I am, I would actually find it a bit ridiculous and frightening that people make this little issue out to be so important while Kishimoto has shown serveral times that he gives a damn about het pairings. He probably laughs his ass off at all of us right now. And then he decides which character he will kill off next in order to make a pairing canon. Oh the irony~

Why does every pairing thread have to become a debate of some kind? This is a favorite pairings thread, not a debate thread. For the record, pairings such as NaruHina, SasuSaku, SasuNaru, and NaruSaku aren't crack. Crack is something like ShinoIno, GaaHina, or NaruIno that have literally no chance in hell.

Anyway my favorite pairing is NaruHina [obviously], followed by SasuSaku, ShikaTema, and NejiTen. I also like ShikaIno, and SaiSaku.

Well, so we have not any pairing with real development... a lot of series start a romance with onsided crush, you can see the think like you want, but you cannot say there are not development, because of Kishimoto has dedicated some pages only for that.
I used be an anti-SasuSaku person, because i thought was impossible, but no i've started to see the things on a different way, because the story is not ended yet, and Kishimoto must have good reasons to show us onesided love interests, because is not a shojo. So, for me, i don't need more than a one sided love interest to think could happen in the future. I think like that.

LOL, this thread is getting more funny and funny as it goes. There is no such thing as being bi.

There is something called being so horny to do anything. But that person is still either heterosexual or homosexual. Every one has a prefrence. Everyone is attracted to one over the other.
That's merely your opinion and not a fact.
If you actually believe in that, fine, but don't think anyone has the same opinion as yours. I know enough bisexual people myself to know that this statement is quite far-fetched and can easily be argued against as untrue.

However, this topic remains all a matter of how you look at things and personal opinion as well as interpretation, just like what defines a pairing as crack and what not.

Why does every pairing thread have to become a debate of some kind? This is a favorite pairings thread, not a debate thread.
Well, if people would stop trying to tell others how and what they have to think about certain pairings, then things like that wouldn't happen to begin with.

If someone's opinion is that NaruHina is a crack pairing, you will have difficulties to change that opinion because he most likely will have his own reasons to believe this, just like some insist that SasuNaru is not a crack pairing while others do. People have their own way to look at things.

Though if you ask me, I couldn't agree more with you.
This whole pairing thing is taken way too seriously anyway.

ShikaTema has to be one of my favorite couplings of all time, across all anime/manga. Though it's not necessarily canon right now, it has gotten pretty dang close. The dynamics are wonderful, too.

I give props to AsuKure for being the first canon coupling, beyond all married parents of the characters. At first I wondered if it would happen, but it's set in stone now. Too bad, though, that things ended up the way they did.

As for other couplings, I'm a fan of ChouIno, NejiTen, JiraTsu, KakaIru and ShinoKiba, but I understand that the pairings are noncanon. x) -shrug.-

Okay, to all the people who used 330 as an example, I'm sorry. I didn't know :amuse
I only watch the anime, 'cause I don't have the money to go buy the manga or anything, so I had no clue about that.
But I do agree that it's possibly because of Kakashi's age and the fact that he's... well, hell, he's Kakashi! That would scare me too! xDD
But you can't really use they're kiss as an example because
1. They were 12
2. They barely knew eachother at that point
3. They were rivals (Well.. kinda one sided rivalry on Naruto's part ^^; )
4. They were stupid :P
They basically still are stupid, mostly 'cause Naruto can be a retard, but not stupid in the same sense as #4 smile-big

Naruto is well aware that Kakashi is a sexy beast who can make even fathers feel gay, and yet he reacts in such a fashion when Kakashi says he likes him? If Naruto were even the slightest bit homosexual, he would've jumped Kakashi's sexy ass on the spot. :P

Okay lets put it this way. If you actually beleive in sasunaru you dont understand the manga. its about friendship! to take it the extra step and call it romance you make the story a joke. If it was supposed to be about his romantic feelings for sasuke thats how it would of been written. But its not. it is about naruto gaining strength to save a friend so close to him he could almost call him his brother.

Yea, Sasuke and Naruto are kids. So are Sakura and Hinata and everyone else people like to pair them with. Pairing NaruHina, SasuSaku, ans NaruSaku is really no different aside from the whole yaoi thing xD

Their not in love! Why can't they (Sasuke and Naruto) just be freinds...? Their not gay. Their 12 year old boys, love isn't on their mind, and if it is it isn't that kind of love. I'm sure the hardcore fans will say, the proof is in the pudding, they held hands and they stared into each others eyes, that is love. Well gee, I've seen two little kids hold hands but i didn't think that makes them gay, and if you want to get through to someone don't you stare into there eyes directly? I don't know, It just seems to me that fandom is destroying the plot and the character development of this fine programming, welp the world goin to hell anways...whatever. I'm guessing no ones gonna read this and I'll probably get some anonomous negative rep so I guess I'll end it here.

I love it because it has more development and actual focus than any of the other pairings, even the canon ones. Everytime I see a SasuNaru moment in the manga I get this warm and fuzzy feeling inside and it gives me the feeling that I probably ship the best pairing in the world ^-^.

SasuNaru is just beautiful, be it as friends, brothers, lovers, rivals, soul mates, whatever pleases you.

The only pairing that makes sense to me.
I fell in love with it by the time part 1 had ended.
Their relationship is so beautiful ! It has angst and drama and is entertaining. I don't see what's there not to love.

I read a really really good essay about NaruSaku. Man that was good writing.
What has that to do with SasuNaru ? If you talk about the ship manifesto, SasuNaru has such an essay too: http://community.livejournal.com/ship_manifesto/127713.html

Aside from yuri (<3), that's generally my point of view as well.

I'm not disguested by it...nor do i like it.

It's more of a "i don't really care for it"

I see them, like as a brother relationship (please don't rip my head off -.-)

But i'll tell you one thing i really use to hate it, because everytime i would try to read a good fan-fic, it will only be about Saku/Naru, and that really annoyed me.
Or in that "love-triangle" Naruto, in every fic would choose Sasuke...that really use pissed me off. ( I mean, why can't Neji get Naruto for a change lol.)

But now, it don't care for it, and i don't mind that pairing, it's more of a preference if you like it or not really. ^_^;

I love SasuNaru. I just love non-canon pairings, whether they're hetero or not. I don't read many fanfics for SasuNaru, but I love collecting fanart of it.

I support SasuNaru, too, but not for the reasons people usually think the fangirls do.
1. I admit, that there are yaoi fangirls, who bring together every single guy who they can, but that's the minority of the SasuNaru fans I guess. Because, for example, I've never liked yaoi pairings, I didn't really care about them, but SasuNaru attracted me from the very first time. No, I didn't think about their intercourses when they were only 12.
2. Most of the people think yaoi pairings are only about hot sex between two guys. But this takes only like 3% of why I like SasuNaru. As many has said, I think too that their relationship is beautiful and unique, whether they are brothers/soulmates/lovers anything.
3. Disagreeing with Dark_wolf247, because I think they were (are) the closest to canon pairing. Even though I think it will never take place in the manga. But that's okay, I'll keep loving SasuNaru anyway.
though sometimes i think the hints are so big that it can't be pure coincidence

I hate Yaoi XD Unless its with Deidara.
But this thread is about if you like SasuNaru or not, not yaoi :oh.
And just to clear this up for once and all: SasuNaru is NOT yaoi unless you draw or write it R to NC-17 rated.

What has happened to the term shounen ai ? Sasuke and Naruto holding hands on a picture is not yaoi. If you think it is, then you have no idea of what yaoi means. If you are disgusted by yaoi I can understand that but SasuNaru =/= yaoi. Why do so many act like if all that is to SasuNaru was only sex :huh ? It is not, it is just you people who have prejudices that aren't true at all.

Maybe it is because you have read too many hentai doujinshi and jumped at conclusions that all pairings are just about sex because your pairings are mainly featured as sex only matter. If you never have read at least a couple of SasuNaru doujinshi you cannot judge if it's all just about sex or not. How should you ? It is like saying "This food tastes bad !" without ever having eaten it.

I love SasuNaru and believe it will be hinted at as canon and I don't care about what other people may have prejudices towards it. The fandom is huge so it cannot be prevented that there are retards and fangirls. You find that in all other fandoms too. That doesn't mean the whole fandom is like that, remember it.

It is a pairing made of pure win.

Naruto will save Sasuke from the darkness and is the only one who can do it (Sakura said it, Neji said it, Kakashi said it... do I need to go on ?). Sasuke will realize that he was wrong because of Naruto. That is what the theme of the manga supports.

So the pairing is a veritable goldmine to bank on ;).

I think it's simply not supported by the manga. It wouldn't bother me one bit... IF it was actually, written into the story. But it just ain't so. The vast majority of pairings people talk about, het or yaoi or yuri or otherwise, are not supported by the manga, IMO. There simply isn't a focus on romance in Naruto, I don't think. Sure of course there's little tastes here and there (NaruHina, NaruSaku) and there's one truly OVERT case (SakuSasu). Anything other than that is fan-fabrication or, reading into little things too much. Or assuming that platonic love between friends just isn't possible. :P I just don't get the feeling that Kishimoto will ever truly escalate most of these little hints he throws out there.

I think SasuNaru is the only pairing supported by the manga because it actually developed two sided, unlike all the other relationships in Naruto. It is the only pairing in Naruto that actually will become canon to me, just that it happens subtext wise. I have seen dozen of people try to write SasuNaru off as "made up by fans" or "they are just friends" or "you see things that aren't there" but it cannot be that a pairing gets such a large fanbase out of nothing. And Sasuke alone speaks for himself.

The evidence is definitely there and everyone who can't deal with it just tries to shove said evidence aside. Those people say that SasuNaru fans are in denial while being in denial, it's funny. I am positive that many (if not all) of those who argue against SasuNaru and even hate it ju
