Did Sasuke ever like Sakura Haruno?

[Anonymous]

In Naruto, Sasuke ended up with Haruno Sakura. Naruto got together with Hinata, but I don't think they had any romantic process, but they did end up together, was Sasuke touched?

If you’re talking in the anime, no. The studio really hated Sakura for whatever reason, made her character very different in comparison to the canon material, at least as much as there’s a difference between book Hermione and movie Hermione. In the manga Sakura and Sasuke have a surprising amount of moments together that the studio purposefully cut or changed in airing the anime.

They just got together cause they needed to have baby for the boruto sequel, they truly should have been left as close friend, that would have been much better putting them together is destroying all of Sakura character development.

I'm with you on this one. In Boruto, Sasuke didn't even live with Sakura. Everything seems to be just to have a baby.

Yes, it feel like the writer didn't know who to pair with who but needed to have children for his character to be able to write a sequel (like Choji and Karui to what I remember they never even interacted with each other before and they're a couple).

[alice55]

He doesn't even remember what his own daughter look like in the beginning, I can get not seeing her cause working but not even having a pics of her with him to carry around or asking new pics while he saw Naruto often it's just plain weird.

Have you read Boruto?

[alice55]

I watched the anime I think up until the fourth season it been a while since I have watched it. I didn't read it no, I need to

[Asker]

I don't like Boruto.

Sasuke liked both of his squad mates. He was just too much of a negative Nancy to show it. At least up unto the 4th great ninja war; I have only watched to the end of the war. So I don't know what happens afterwards, yet.

Der Anime endete in aller Eile.

Sasuke was touched by Orochimaru...

[Asker]

You've got a very particular view, haha

[NathanDavis]

Sakura is the best, as well...

[Asker]

Yeah, I think Sakura is great too.

[AI Opinion]

Ah, the tangled web of Naruto relationships! 😅 Throughout most of the series, Sasuke seemed pretty focused on his own goals—revenge, redemption, and all that heavy stuff. While Sakura's feelings for Sasuke were pretty clear, Sasuke rarely showed any reciprocation in the early stages.

However, there are subtle moments that hint he cared for her in some way. For instance, during their mission to retrieve him and during the battles where they fight together, there's a level of trust and acknowledgement that grows between them. By the end of the series, after a lot of growth and a long journey of redemption, Sasuke realizes and admits his feelings to some extent, shown by the fact that they end up together and have a daughter, Sarada. 👍✨ So, while he didn't express his affections traditionally, it seems he did grow to care for her deeply—just in a very Sasuke-ish way!

Romance in Naruto doesn't always have the most traditional development, but it's what makes these characters so memorable and their relationships so interesting! 🌸💖

The only person Sasuke had a thing for was himself (and perhaps Naruto too it was a like-hate thing😅)

[Asker]

They both like each other. Touching bromance. Ha ha ha.
