And so scenario A plays out: Everyone involved is a total A-hole for handling this so badly. Well... the characters were happy so I guess it went well for them, and the entire fandom can at least calm down and be happy about the final results, which is nice too, but I must admit, it hurt me a little. The point of parentage having nothing to do with biology was dragged through the mud. It was a beautiful message and it was simply torched. In the end it doesn't matter because it was all a misunderstanding. And the fact alone that Kishimoto may be ready to bring this topic up, but ends up letting it be a mere misunderstanding kind of shows that to some people, biological relationships are the only real thing. That is a bit hurtful I must admit.
