If we are honest, Kishi probably just labeled her the heroine because he was told to..... she's really just more of an important secondary character.....

I find the roles of the females in this series sad; they are either house-wives, defeated, or just out of the picture...... she kept a lot of people alive and was helpful in beating Obito.... but honestly, females aren't given much in this series.....

Look at this chapter people, while she did a good job in surviving Madara's attack, she was reduced to a motherly role in which she was saddened by the prodigal child's lack of caring (note this is an analogy, not to be taken literal)...

Kishi honestly could have done more for Sakura; when ever she gets strong, she's put into situations that are beyond that.... as a genin, all her situations were beyond what a genin could face, in P.2 she's faced a few times with a Kage level; but now that she's kage level, she's faced against God-level..... this chapter just kinda showed the unfairness towards the female characters too me..... she actually has good qualities for a heroine, but Kishi didn't really use most of them, giving all the focus on Sasuke, Naruto, Madara, Obito and people they were fighting......

I totally agree. I mean I'm tired of hearing people talking trash about Sakura. It really isn't fair for her, like whenever she gets to show off her power, someone who is at God-Level just shows up and beats Sakura and then Naruto saves her, it almost makes it a stereotypical series, (the girl is useless, the hero is amazing and he saves her) I mean as a the main female character of the series, Kishimoto does NOTHING to put her on the screen. Okay, back to the chapter, I am TOTALLY impressed by Naruto and Sasuke (again) but I'm happy for Sakura too, haters say she's useless again, but, she awakened her Strength of a Hundred Technique and healed a wound from the Truth-Seeking Ball, though she did eventually get stabbed, but I'm sure she'll be able to heal it. Kishi don't do cliffhangers, I know it makes it interesting but I literally count every minute until the next chap. CAN"T WAIT!!!!
