I never cared about those two, but what made it so bad?
Isaiah Edwards
Worst girl makes worst couple
Cooper Harris
Ino and Sai is even worse. She literally settled for a Discount Sasuke.
Samuel James
Sasuke minus shit personality plus actually there > Sasuke
Jeremiah Gray
>dat open hand kek
Nah these two actually made some sense. Somewhat.
Brandon Cruz
At least they are a couple.
Jeremiah Hill
Morally wise, Sai is way superior but I still don't think Ino was thinking that when she hooked up with him.
Isaac Sanders
Had plenty of build-up, as you said it was just completely one-sided. It's like a lot of shoujo couples honestly.
Both Naruto and Sasuke were such godawful characters that turned all other characters they interacted with into shit that them ending up with anyone can be argued to be bad though, honestly.
is correct too, Ohgi deserved no happiness.
Parker Baker
They look just fine to me.
Elijah Carter
>What is objectively the worst anime couple? Your favorite.
Nathaniel Richardson
>discount Where someone like Sasuke is concerned I'd say the discount version is not just a better option but also superior in every way.
Lucas Hernandez
...
Brody Rodriguez
A couple who literally hooked for plot related reasons and also we learned later because of executive meddling. And that after spending 2/3rds of the show developping the objectively superior relationship between the MC and the future antagonist.
Lincoln Perry
Would people still hate it if all the old cast wasn't thrown under the bus to make it exist?
James Hughes
> no buildup I get everything else but dude, like season one episode one they were pushing this.
Luis Long
Not really. There is a reason why is the most popular straight couple in Naruto and It has actual build up and interactions in the original manga without the need of an extra movie. >No chemistry, feels forced, no buildup, is pretty much a one-sided obsession, and is just awful. Did you mean Naruto and Hinata?
Kayden Anderson
God This
Noah Peterson
Goku x Chichi is going to be the worst pairing forever. Never kissed, their kids were made by rape and Goku being a shit father helps too.
Easton Walker
The pairing was going a decent route before Sasuke left and it had plenty of build up, he was warming up to her and all. Then the other shitfest happened but it's still much more than you can say about others Naruto pairings with the exception of Shikamaru and Temari maybe.
Caleb Jenkins
>has actual build up and interactions in the original manga Sakura crushing on Sasuke is not build up and interactions.
James Davis
O
Jaxson Roberts
It's intentional, but it's still up there.
Dylan Turner
What bothers me the most is that they ended up having a daughter that has one of the worst character designs in the series. She may as well be a background character.
Alexander Morales
MY
Cooper Hall
They seem pretty happy togheter though, as shown from the last episode.
Blake Brown
It wasn't ideal but it wasn't that bad, just like neither Goku and Chi-Chi individually weren't as bad as the parodic shit being fed to the fans now.
Ayden Watson
*were as bad
Charles Garcia
NarutoxHinata is trash too (I mean it took BRAINWASHING, brain fucking washing to force Naruto to fall in love with the slut, all because Kishimoto couldn't think of any other scenario to make Naruto like her) but at least they make a balanced, happy couple. SasuSaku on the other hand has no build up, no chemistry, nothing whatsoever.
Isaac Brooks
I feel bad for both, Sasuke and Sakura for having ended as a “couple”, at this point is not pandering but just pure hate towards both characters to make them have an unhealty relationship with no development as characters but instead having a kid. Is just a bad example for the underages who follow the story. Both should have matured and have their own lives. Imagine if Sasuke decided to apologize for being an awful person to Sakura, and Sakura decided to accept she was being an obssesed blind idiot? Maybe they could be friend now, like a healthy friendship and not the bland forced relationship they have.
Bentley Diaz
SasuSaku have chemistry out the ass and it's definitely mutual. You're just mad because your fave self-insert MC got cucked and had to settle for an irrelevant moeblob with a literal who clan.
Either that or you're one of those delusional yaoishit fangirls who actually think Nardo and Sasook wanted to fuck each other.
Cucked no matter why you hate them because SasuSaku are canon and a best.
Robert James
>Is just a bad example for the underages who follow the story I often think about this too. But I can't help but think it reflects what Kishimoto thinks of society and growing up. When you grow up you have to find yourself a match so you can mary and have kids. That's just what you do. Doesn't matter whether you have feelings or not, whether your feelings are misguided or not, whether you're happy together or not, or even whether you're together. It's just so awful. You'd think editors are there to tell an author when what he's doing is bullshit and that children who will grow up and mary one day are reading it but somehow this got greenlighted and it's fucking terrible. At least SP does a good job of showing just how awful the whole situation really is, unlike Kishimto who does nothing except glorify Sakura's loyalty toward her husband, as well as Sasuke's sense of duty and the "sacrifice" he's making by staying away from his family.
Colton Hughes
Dude i used to ship SasuSaku and even I agree that theyre a shit couple
Josiah Garcia
>worst couple thread >no ichigo-orihime
uncaceptable.
Carter Cook
I can't remember a single good interaction between Sakura and Sasuke.
Zachary Ross
I don't care about shipping faggotry, I just think they're objectively a toxic, unhealthy couple.
And wasn't Sakura chasing Sasuke for 90 9% of the story until he reciprocated at the last minute? That's not mutual at all.
Logan Clark
>Discount Sasuke If anything she got improved Sasuke.
Isaiah Robinson
Rukia and Renji. I can't believe that Rukia married that fucking ape. It would not surprise me if Rukia was disowned from the family.
Jason Sanchez
...
Lincoln Gomez
Now I am not mad at this but mad about how Ichigo and Rukia's friendship was never properly portrayed lately. I mean, it was the first time we see a girl and a boy having a strong bond as friends but this was dropped, when it could have been something really interesting to see a "from friends to best friends", shitty on the forced by default romance between boy meets girl trope.
Landon Flores
...
Jack Collins
super is not canon
Jace Cruz
>not remembering when sasuke has repeatedly BTFO sakura on multiple occasions, verbally and physically. some good stuff there
Gabriel Myers
SoL anime based on IASIP when?
James Stewart
...
Aaron Gonzalez
> We're destined to be together > But I'm gonna fight destiny > No wait actually, destiny is great
Robert Diaz
Will never made sense to me. Kodomo no jinkan was even worse, but at least that girl was actually crazy enough and directly wanted something with the guy.
Logan Thompson
That was fine though.
Daniel Hernandez
>objectively That is impossible. Here simply are going to come mainly salty shippers
Jaxon Diaz
There are couples that are genuinely terrible, though. But you're right, salty shippers are annoying.
Christian Baker
Yes because the two of them are awful people.
Hunter Garcia
imagine being this retarded.
Ayden Murphy
ANISOTROPIC
Blake Ortiz
Nina and Cheerios Oh wait, I was wrong.
They're bland, not bad.
Gavin Ross
CHILD
Isaiah Barnes
I dont know man I just think it’s kind of an asspull when Sakura has literally physically gotten stabbed multiple times by her now husband. When you get to the point where your husband has literally tried to kill you multiple in the past it just doesn’t quite ring of healthy normal relationship to me. I gues the naruto sasuke foil extends to their marriage too.
This user gets it.
Henry Butler
So, what would be the verdict about how love is portrayed in manga? Even romance manga seems to portray shitty relationships (honorable exceptions are Kimini or Ore monogatari, and so).
Charles Edwards
Agreed. That pairing sickens me to no end, and I wish they were no coupling when it came to Soul Society characters because it was stupid. I had no problem with Ichigo and Orihime, because I knew he was going to stick to being human, and not join up with Soul Reapers like every Ruki/Ichigo fans were expecting.
Connor Cooper
I never get why shonen protagonists, who are characters that usually put themselves in many life threatening situations and often have to leave their loved ones for whatever reason, have children. If you're not going to be able to take care of your child properly and you know it, then why have them in the first place? Not only Sasuke, but Naruto as well has to put his family in second place all the time thanks to his job, leaving his kid and wife understandably frustrated, and they're framed as the ones being in the wrong instead of the parents who decided to have children fully knowing they wouldn't be able to be there for them when they need them. Goku too is also guilty of this.
Dylan Scott
So your only problem is ghosts having sex?
Adrian Garcia
This times 10. They actually make Sasuke and Sakura look like an amazingly couple with an interesting history by comparison.
Jace Sullivan
They were shit, but honestly any couple with Ichigo in it was doomed to be bad
Wyatt Watson
Renji and Rukia make want to hurl, simply because I hate the monkey. But for the Soul Society thing. Kubo tried to represent the final chapter as a "people grow up and become adults" and a "passing of the torch" kind a message. But the characters of Soul Society don't lend well to this message because nearly all of them are already hundreds, if not thousands of years old.
Lincoln Reyes
Hey, someone had to post this one eventually.
I have a feeling that a bunch of jojo couples culd enter here
Jose Flores
Sasuke grew fond of her after getting married, and he married her because Sakura never gave up. You can say the same for Naruto and Hinata
Isaiah Evans
The best love stories ever told are often found where you least expect them imo. Pic related. The problem with shojo is that if you're gonna tell a romance centered story then of course it's just better when the relationship has a lot of problems with it. Which of course tends to lead to the portrayal of terrible relationships. Not always, but very often. Which is also why the bastard boyfriend trope lives strong to this day. Luckily as you said, stuff like Ouran or Kiminotodoke, where the obstacles aren't just the main boy's douchebaggery but the flaws of both characters who would be involved in a relationship. Though I'll admit I barely remember the main boy in Kimini having flaws. Wasn't he just a popular cardboard cutout?
Jacob Wood
We wish
Austin Collins
No one cares that you lost your taste.
Sure is tumblr in here.
Owen Gray
>Never give up on an unrequited love Worst moral ever
Henry Morris
The problem with shojo is that the romance is idealized too much. Often two characters that have nothing in common are paired up because of a common quirk or "opposites attract", regardless of whether the relationship would work in the long term.
Kimini was good because the romance's main obstacle was the self-improvement and genuine character flaws.
Isaac Miller
>post terrible shipper art >like sasusaku >"sure is tumblr in there" Is there any self awareness left inside you? Please tell me you're baiting. Here's a (you).
Thomas Hernandez
I don't think anything will beat this.
Christopher Barnes
You're thinking of NH, SS was endgame by the end of part 1 if Sasuke hadn't left the village and at that point all Sakura had to do was wait until he stopped being crazy and they picked up where they left off the distance having only made her love stronger. She didn't have to kill her cousin just to make the guy she liked even remember her name kek
Isaac Watson
I pity you and your shit taste.
Benjamin Taylor
> If you hassle him enough, he'll eventually love you back (and then leave forever) What a great message to kids!
Adrian Cruz
Bleach should have ended with the Aizen arc.
Owen Ramirez
>I have a feeling that a bunch of jojo couples culd enter here Yukako and Koichi, yeah, but the other few of them that I can remember aren't really bad, just kind of bland.
Lincoln Bailey
Well... It's true
David Baker
You're posting a Nardo image on Sup Forums, you have no fucking high ground yourself yet you want to talk about lack of self-awareness?
Juan Gray
>She didn't have to kill her cousin Don't blame her because Neji chose to sacrifice himself for keikaku
Zachary Wright
She's just a pantless child in the manga which is why I guess she's succh a target for porn. At least she looks halfway decent in the anime with shorts and shinguards.
Zachary Cooper
...
Thomas Bennett
Pity yourself for still being angry about best pair years later. No one cares about your tumblr arguments, your gay ship getting sunk before it ever sailed, or your self-insert being a deadbeat dad himself and settling for walking tits the character.
Lincoln Stewart
>ichihime >worse than a guy who tried to murder his love interest in cold blood
That's some migthy ichirukists butthurt we have here folks.
I'm talking to someone who's doing the same thing but with fanart, I still have the high ground.
Dylan Hernandez
I'll blame the blind looking waste of space all I want when the author literally says he killed Neji off so Naruto would notice her.
Robert Reed
It's funny because IIRC, tumblr also disliked SasuSaku. Only underages think it's good.
Cooper Watson
Fanart of best CANON pair is better than your cuck bort images of a non-canon show.
Cameron Rivera
Naruto wanted a family and finally got to make one. It's a Good End for him. It isn't his fault that he woefully underestimated the duties that being a Kage entailed and he does strain himself to try and make get togethers and shit. The dude is just too busy and until there's a successor his family is going to have to take the hit by having an absent hero father.
Goku on the other hand is just awful. He's detached from his family on an emotional level and I want to believe it's because that's how the Saiyans are. They don't have the same values toward spouses and shit that humans do.
Samuel Gutierrez
I guess that's why it regularly gets voted in the top 20 pairs for Gaiden and whenever there is content of it meanwhile NaruHina is rarely if ever on the top 20. Stay mad Hinashitter or yaoifat hamplanet.
Ethan Howard
So it is true, Sakurafags have to hate Hinata and vice versa.
Elijah Nguyen
Hinata is garbage so it's okay.
Daniel Wright
>the worst female character ever >and the other side apparently knows this >tried to kill her >"yeah sorry" >never shown an ounce of attraction to her >can't stand to be with her and work on reviving the clan as he planned >heavily implied he's gay >deadbeat father of their test tube baby >she still clings
/thread
Gavin Torres
Sarada is the best character design you mean. All the others look like fucking clones or abominations of their parents. Kishi actually took care to give her traits of both her parents and she's a perfect mix of them both.
Evan James
One is mentally ill, the other was guilt tripped into accepting her proposal but he doesn't love her.
Jacob Phillips
>they fucked >got married >had a kid and are still married and inlove
One day you'll stop being so butthurt and delusional user. Maybe.
