#they just have shallow crushes on men no deep/complex relationships tho :) not with anyone thats for the men

kind of lame tbh how sakura in the chuunin exams arc is shown to cut off her hair as a symbol for her independence and coming into her own power (since she grew them out in the first place cuz she thought it might make sasuke like her) but then at the end of the story she still ends up being defined solely by her crush on him. like during the war arc kakashi makes it her most defining trait when he thinks to himself abt how team 7 has grown and they each have changed, he says abt sakura that her feelings for sasuke have changed. and in the end, when sasuke and naruto are about to take off to the valley of the end, she again, begs him to be with her. even says that she is pathetic for doing so like .. okay

#posts #i just smtimes wish kishimoto would give her more of a personality #other than just girl who has a crush on some guy 👍 #its fine that she has a crush on him but dont make it her sole defining characteristic maybe? lol #and like she's consistently shown to beg for him and cry for him and sasuke tells her to go fuck herself over and over #i think when she says she's pathetic ... thats how the audience is supposed to perceive her as well yknow #that is how kishimoto intends for her to be seen #and that doesnt feel right for me :c #moreover ... it is also i think not debateable really that sakura's crush on sasuke .. it doesnt have that much depth #it doesnt have really any depth #which is fine conceptually i think. not everything has to be super deep and meaningful #but to make it into such a core trait of her as a character .. it just reads as if kishimoto perceives women as shallow #they just have shallow crushes on men no deep/complex relationships tho :) not with anyone thats for the men #u know? #anyways i know im not rlly saying anything new here #naruto is sexist fork found in kitchen #but yeah
