Welcome to Gaia! ::

Chapter 319:

AHHHHHH. YESYESYES. :explodes:

The best two pages in the chapter:




This is what I've been dying to see since the beginning of the second Naruto arc. Sakura angsting. To many, this may not seem like much, but to me it speaks volumes. Kishimoto has been dropping hints that Sakura's not the emotionally strong one, despite her attempts. She's just able to focus her pain better than Naruto. But in some ways that's worse. No one really sees the kind of pain she's in. People have been saying this and that, but I see this as proof that Sakura wants Team 7 together again. Sasuke is driving BOTH Sakura Naruto.

And I love the tear. Just so much emphasis was put into it and gah. heart
