In fact, you DO need a reason to be in love with someone. Her "reasons" are that he is physically attractive and nothing else; it really is a "fantasy" of true love. The thing is, Sakura doesn't understand love. As Olaf the Snowman once put it, love is putting another person's needs over the needs of one's self, NOT when you find someone you can masturbate to (if she doesn't I'm shocked). Sakura may do both for Sasuke, but Sasuke does neither. There's only one person where putting the other over self happens mutually for Sakura - Naruto.

Then there's Kakashi: At the same time, however, people don't need a reason to simply love someone. Let's note that there's a difference between IN LOVE and LOVE. Think about it: when you see someone on the street, do you automatically hate/fall in love with him/her? No! You're mostly indifferent, but at the same time you can't help but feel kinship. That's the whole purpose of the Will of Fire, after all: love is the key to this world. And it's something that Sakura, Naruto, and all of the other good guys have been trying to place onto Sasuke throughout the entire course of the series.

Eventually, this is a general gist of how I think things will turn out: Naruto and Sasuke have their fight. Naruto wins and arrests Sasuke. Sasuke is forced to release the Tailed Beasts and undo the Infinite Tsukuyomi. Kurama goes back into Naruto. Sakura awakens and after seeing that Naruto fulfilled his promise finally realizes she returns his feelings, at which point a relationship occurs. Hinata becomes the Hyuga successor again in light of Neji's passing, and approves of Sakura's feelings. The rest of the Konoha 11 pretty much remains the same, although Sai is made part of it to replace Neji. Might Guy recovers. Tsunade announces her Hokage successor - Naruto. Everyone returns home. Years later, Sasuke escapes, leading directly into Naruto 7: The Last. ....pathetic -__-
