Hello, I'm Romance Girl and as you can see I AM a girl. My real name, however, is Ashley. Naruto is one of my favorite animes, next to Inuyasha but I have only watched this show since the english version of Shippuden started. During the first part of Naruto I barely watched it and when I did, it was very rare. I liked the show but never took it seriously and I would say I'll watch it but I would forget every time. My older brother watches it too and he did the same thing I did except he never watched it because " it's gay and they are only kids so it's not cool". However, when Shippuden came along and then I really got into it because it became cooler and more interesting. It became one of my favorite shows. My 19-year old brother likes this show too, though not as much as me(he actually says I'm obsessed:(. It's annoying). Before anyone asks, I am obviously a Anime watcher because I see nothing wrong with it. I at first watched only the english version of the show and did not even know what manga was(true story). Once I got my first computer in December, I learned much more about this show than I intended. In case anyone's asking why I watch Anime, let me explain. Like I said before I'm fine with the Anime but I do get annoyed with it for a few things. 1. I hate the ridiculous filler arcs that do not affect the original storyline at all. They are really just a waste of episodes. 2. Been having very sucky animation lately, 3. I hate how they screw up some of my pairing's moments and it looks completely different from the manga(yes I do ship a Naruto Pairing but I'll get into that later.) and 4. Give two certain pairings more moments than what they actually have in the manga and anime-only watchers think they actually have a chance of happening. Other than that, the Anime is fine and I enjoy it. I originally only watched the english version for while until a few months ago and I started to watch the japanese version. I wasn't going to at first but my brother said it was going to slow for him and he wanted to see what happens sooner so he watched the english sub because it's way farther. I eventually did the same because I didn't want him to see what happens before me. I'm very glad I did that, though I'm used to and like the english voices better. But then I decided I"ll read the manga, because I wanted to see what are most recent things happening and because I'm an impatient person like that ^_^. My brother and I are currently collecting the Shippuden series and have volumes 1-6, plus the first Shippuden movie. Anyways this is what I do on a weekly basis: 1. Read the latest chapter on Wed.; tell my brother. 2. watch english sub on the internet on Thurs. with my brother; discuss the episode. and 3. Watch english dub on Sat. with my brother. Anyways, that's a little of me in a nutshell.

I have a favorite pairing that I love in this series and ship and that is NaruSaku because I believe, compared to the other non-canon pairings, it actually has a fairly large chance of happening. This is slighlty off topic, but I need to give a warning. If I see biased sentences that aren't confirmed, I will delete it, even if that's most likely what it meant. In my opinion, if it's not confirmed and a scene is up for interpretation, it shouldn't be there. I'm sure I'll get on people's nerves and for that I'm sorry, but that doesn't mean I'll give in. Just saying.

Anyways, what I'm going to do is start off at what my opinion is on of a few of some Naruto pairings and then I'll put what I think of several characters next. However, I'm sure many of you in this wiki don't give a crap about pairngs so you can just skip if you want to.

'''A HANDFUL OF NARUTO PAIRINGS:

''1. NaruSaku: This is my favorite Naruto Pairing and I will obviously start of with my favorite. Unfortunately, this will probably be pretty long. I actually see nothing wrong with this pairing at all. From all the observing I did of their interactions, especially in Shippuden, I can safely say that NaruSaku is the only two-sided non-canon pairing as of now. And I'm pretty good at reading possible feelings, so I trust my judgement. At first(during Part One), I didn't care about this pairing( or the plot very much for that matter) because I didn't really watch Naruto. But out of the rare times I watched it, this is what I picked up on: Naruto likes Sakura, Sakura likes Sasuke, Sasuke likes no one. Everything was horribly one-sided and I didn't think Naruto and Sakura would ever get together. That is, until Part 2 came along. Starting from the first episode, I already started to notice the telltale signs of possible feelings on Sakura's side(Naruto's were obvious; Everyone knew he liked Sakura), and I started thinking to myself: "Does she like Naruto? She seems attracted towards him." My curiousity got the better of me, so I started to become interested and continued to watch to see if my suspicions were true. I quickly got my answer, especially during the Sasuke and Sai arc, and came to the conclusion that Sakura was slowly falling for Naruto(I found that rather shocking though because something like that seemed so inpossible before). In fact, I think that, this late in the series, she already has but just hasn't realized it yet. I quickly grew fond of the pairing to the point that I'll be really pissed if it doesn't become canon, and I wanted to see their relationship progress. As for Naruto, his feelings aren't even in question anymore. He is obviously in love with Sakura. At first, it was really just a shallow crush but grew into much more than that as the story went on. Naruto was willing to selflessly sacrifice his own happiness for Sakura's sake and I found that really touching and sweet. No way is that just a silly crush anymore! Naruto loves Sakura and only Sakura. Anyways, let me get to why I like it so much. Their whole relationship is pretty comical to me. Sakura gets annoyed with Naruto when he's being stupid, dense, or insensitive and punches him to set him straight. Typical Main Character/Tsundere pairing. Someone needs to put him in his place and the only person fitting for that role will always be Sakura. I also rather like the whole 'hate you at first, love you now' sort of relationships. Its good development for Sakura and it shows how much she's grown and changed. Its something you never would expect(I know I sure didn't) with all the twists going on. Its also rather ironic as well. Naruto and Sakura have wonderful chemistry and they truly do care for each other. I truly believe that at the end of Naruto it will either be NaruSaku or no pairings at all. Its just way too obvious and sensible to just brush it off as sibling-like or "just best friends" when its really much more than that now. With all the obvious hints, I find it odd that NaruSaku isn't very popular but oh well. Popularity isn't the same as the "Most likely".

2. NaruHina: As for NaruHina, I don't despise it and like it(in a way) but I like NaruSaku far better. I do not ship this pairing though and I'm actually against it. The main reason being is that I just don't see this happening at all in the future. I see many holes in theories that NaruHina will become canon and I'll point them out right now. Hinata obviously is in love with Naruto though I can never understand that. She just doesn't know him well enough to actually be 'in love' with him though this probably shows how Kishi's not good with romance and relationships. Naruto, however, had a crush on Sakura during Part 1 and never noticed Hinata's feelings for him( Naruto must have really been stupid if he missed something that obvious) through all of Part 1 and most of Part 2. Even when Naruto realized that she loved him, he hasn't talked to her or confronted her about in over 100 chapters and counting(he like sort of blew her off). To me this is answer enough that he does not and most likely will never return her feelings. And to top off all this negativity, Naruto fell in love with Sakura sometime in Part 2 and, while it is possible to love more than one person, I do not see this happening. He appears to love Sakura and only Sakura until proven otherwise. I admit, though, I do pity Hinata quite a lot. She does really love Naruto but it remains unrequited. As I see it, maybe if she got a spine earlier than the Pain arc she would have a much larger chance of actually getting with him, but Kishimoto didn't write it that way did he? As for the confession, while I'm glad she finally confessed to him(its about time Naruto learned the truth), I wish she could have done more to help in like in the Anime for example. However, all she did was say I love you, charged at Pain, knowing she would probably die, and got smashed in 2 seconds flat. Leaving Naruto pinned to the ground and helpless. That did not sit well with me snd I thought, being the caring person she is would help out, but whatever. Seeing how I'm at the confession, I find this next theory rather annoying: "Hinata said I love you to him first so Naruto will fall in love with her". Really?! I find this laughable. Just because she was the first to say 'I love you' does not mean he will return her feelings. Does that sound realistic? No. The confession was a plot device to Naruto meeting his Dad and going 6 tails, as well as Hinata getting development and growing as a character. NOT THE BEGINING OF NARUHINA BECOMING CANON. I can not stress this enough. The manga seems to support this claim. I also don't get why some people thing he loves her because he turned 8 tails when she "died". That was not the case. Naruto had mounting anger growing him when the village was destroyed, Jiraiya died, and Kakashi was killed. Something would have snapped in him eventually and Hinata just happened to be the trigger. To be honest, I wasn't surprised he reacted like that. She just confessed and he sees her risking her life for him. Of couse he would turn 9 tails. The seal was weakening too so that probably contributed a little. What I saw was care and concern for her, but nothing else. Last argument: "Hinata liked Naruto and supported him before anyone else so she deserves more". Okay first of all, you don't deserve anyone's love no matter who it is or what you did for them. What matters is the mutual feelings for each other while unfortunately NaruHina is sorely lacking. As for the rest, while that is true there they need to learn to take account of. While Hinata did believe in him, in the begining, she didn't even attempt to become friends. All she did was watch him. Naruto thought everyone hated him, so Hinata "silently supporting" him did not affect Naruto. Being shy is just an excuse. Now this is what I think about NaruHina. Their personalities are completely different and do not go together well in a relationship. Too different in my opinion. Naruto is loud and Hinata is shy. She would never put him in his place when Naruto is being stupid. As for Naruto, I sure he wouldn't like her shyness and would get bored with her pretty quickly. It would not work out. So here's my conclusion. Me and other NaruSaku fans think: One-sided and is incredibly impossible to ever happen. Rabid NaruHina fans: Fantasy Pairing that they love but deep down know won't however believe it will if you defy all logic. If you get offended, please forgive me. I just truly believe this.
