Why is everyone hating on Sakura? She is one of the strongest characters in the whole entire anime and the best healer in the Shinobi world! Sure she wasn't able to do much in the first season but that was only because she was stuck on grades thinking that it'll grant her many opportunities if she just tried hard. Many people are like that, ok? She's not a horrible person just by lying to Naruto. It was supposed to be a white lie so he wouldn't worry about finding Sasuke for her. She was just trying to lift the weight off of his shoulders. People make mistakes, but she makes the most. She knows that she messed up and tries her best to not let it affect people. That's why I think she's not a hateful character but instead a worthy heroine.
