random observation..

[aldriena.livejournal.com]

I was looking back through a few chapters, and I noticed something about Sakura's hair in a flashback scene during chapter 270--


it's long again!

So, somewhere during the time jump, she grew her hair out and then cut it short again. I know it's probably not all that significant, but I thought it was worth bringing up since there's the whole wanting-to-impress-Sasuke symbolism attatched to her long hair. Maybe she actually started getting over him when she cut it again? It would make sense, since it has been two years since they've seen each other. And it would definitely help support the little Naruto/Sakura things we've been seeing in recent chapters..

Even though I absolutly love NaruSaku I have to admit that the moments had more of a platonic feel to them. Which makes me sad :( but oh well, I still hope there is no pairings at the end XD

Amen! :] Romance always kills shounen series, I think~

[larka-14.livejournal.com]

True, as much as I like shipping I've always hated mush.It killed Inuyasha, it could kill naruto too.

Besides, if there are no pairings in the end... all shippers will be happy XD

[aldriena.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I guess they're more platonic than anything else.. but still more romantic than Sakura yelling at him/smacking him every two minutes. XD

[larka-14.livejournal.com]

True, their relashonship has matured and it's very sweet. But they still both love Sasuke. I think it would be best if they all got together and had a big orgy. That would make me happy. Very happy indeed.

If NaruSaku does happen though, I will squee and jump for joy X3, but I know it won't T_T

[aldriena.livejournal.com]

Hahaha, yeah. Team 7 threesome! Who wouldn't that make happy? :P ...Well, aside from like.. Ino. And Lee. ...And Hinata. >_>

[influx]

Ino/Lee/Hinata?

(See, now no one gets left out...)

It was starting to look kind of shaggy and ugly, too, after the three months (before Naruto left with Jiraiya). Maybe it was ugly coz she wasn't wearing her headband... but yeah, it definitely looks better long or short. Not shaggy.

Awww people need to be way more accepting. I support most canon, but only because they feel right to me, for whatever reasons. But I don't jump down peoples' throats for non canon, so, I'm on your side, even if it's not my OT3 ;P I admit I'm in lurve with IruKaka though....you can jump down my throat for that one if you need to...lol I'm rambling sorry ^^;;;

[aldriena.livejournal.com]

Whoever jumps down your throat for that obviously hasn't paid much attention to the other odd pairings people like. X_x Team 7 is more canon than the majority of them..

[alli-chan.livejournal.com]

There are no canon pairings in Naruto >> Except the one-sided things, that is, but they don't really count. If people bitch at you for liking non-canon pairings, then you are justified in calling them idiots.

Besides, Team 7 OT3 rocks! <3<3<3

[weeaboo.livejournal.com]

I think it may have been officially said that there will be no actual pairings at the end of the series, but that may just be my over-active and optimistic imagination. X3

Besides, looking at the series in a more logical way, Team 7 OT3 is looking to be canon, seeing as Sakura may be developing some sort of feelings for Naruto, and how they both still love Sasuke. Yepyep.
...Yeah. For me at least, Team 7 is the closest to a canon pairing in the series. XD *SHIPSHIPSHIP*

[weeaboo.livejournal.com]

Nah-HAH. That was it. And I know at some point he said he liked threesomes, because somebody told me and i'm really gullible. So yeah. XD

Omg, fellow Ron/Harry/Hermy OT3 shipper? :3 BOOYAH. I dont reckon that there will be any pairings regarding the main characters, and I think the only thing that could become canon in the series could be ShikaTem. Because they hang out together and...stuff. Yeah. It sounded like a reason in my head. Shh. XD

WORD. Team 7 OT3 for the win. *loves your icon*

*IT LOVES YOU BACK*
Hahaha. Our OT3 wins at it.

So THAT'S what it was, I knew there was something wrong with that when I'd seen it! *windmills*

I'm not that big on the romance pairings in Naruto. I go with the flow, for the most part, because I'm new-ish to the fandom as a whole. I've never read a fanfic (and don't plan to until I write at least ONE of my own) so a lot of the pairings (crack or no) just kinda... amuse me.

All I know is that people take this stuff WAY too seriously sometimes. "OMG YOU SHIP THEM?! YOU LOSER >=O DIE."

>_> Idiot.. meet Kancho.. aka Konoha's secret technique 1000 Years of Death.
