The entire point of Naruto Gaiden was to show that he does. "Do you think your feelings are truly connected to mom?" "Yeah." "Because we have you, Sarada." His fidelity was brought under suspicion for that entire purpose, really, since the whole Karin thing turned out to be a red herring.

Also, one of those side books mention a period when Sasuke was under suspicion once more of being a criminal. He didn't care at all about it until it came to light that Sakura was in danger, with which he immediately came to her side, even though it turned out he was unnecessary. You can the synopsis of it somewhere on this wiki.

As for the actual topic, it kind of is. It serves as a prequel to the Boruto movie and essentially just resolves Sarada's issues with her family. I guess some might question why she's not more upset with Sasuke never having been at home for most of her childhood otherwise.

Even if the gaiden series was made to show sasukes love for sakura, kishimoto didnt do a good job. He should have made sasuke give sakura at LEAST a hug. he didnt even communicate that much to her. I still LOVE the naruto series and stuff, but the idea of sasuke and sakura is just WEIRD. Sasuke shouldnt have ended up with anyone. But other than that I love the naruto series. LUV. IT.
