No offense to Itachi (jk full offense) but if Danzo had told Sasuke to kill his whole clan Sasuke would just have killed Danzo right there and ended the entire storyline prematurely.

I think the reason why Naruto fans get so passionate and upset about the series is because of how real it can be. Naruto isn’t about paragon heroes outdoing dastardly villains. It’s about human beings fighting tooth and nail to survive in a world surrounded by death. It’s about broken systems made and perpetuated by broken people.

The Hyuga clan isn’t just antagonistic or pretentious, they practice slavery.

The Uchiha clan weren’t just killed by some raging psychopath, they were systematically massacred.

Itachi isn’t just cruel to Sasuke because he’s a bad brother, he’s cruel because he’d been told time and time again that you can only survive by being cruel and he wants nothing more than for Sasuke to survive.

Nagato isn’t trying to take over the world just for the sake of power, he’s trying to take over the world because it beat him down to the point of believing that the only chance at peace there is is the world being forced into compliance through fear.

Iruka isn’t hard on Naruto just because he’s a strict teacher, he’s hard on Naruto because he knows from experience how unforgiving the world is towards orphans.

Kakashi isn’t just some silly and slightly lazy teacher, he’s a contract killer still grieving his loved ones and struggling to do better without knowing how he’s supposed to.

Sakura isn’t just a fangirl, she’s a normal girl in a very dangerous and abnormal world constantly being made to choose between what she’s supposed to do and what she feels.

Sasuke isn’t just some edgelord, he’s a survivor who lost everything then gets repeatedly told that he has to choose between keeping what he’s gained and doing better than his brother.

Naruto isn’t just trying to be the best Hokage there ever was, he’s trying to prove his worth to a society that abandoned him just for existing and, in a way, confirm his worth to himself.

The Naruto story is about humans trying to force themselves into the role of weapons because that’s what they were told they had to be. It’s a story where everyone is a perpetrator but no one is trying to do wrong. It’s a story where everyone is a victim but no one is a perfect victim.

The world and the characters aren’t simple and trying to simplify them only takes away from them. So of course we get passionate about showing off all the reasons why they shouldn’t be simplified and all of the ways they’re complicated. Of course we get upset when we see others simplifying them or selling certain aspects of their characters short. Of course we get upset when the series itself simplifies them. Of course we get upset when the series chooses to abandon them. Because it not only feels like the characters are giving up, it feels like the series is betraying anyone who chose to get invested in its complexities.

Nothing just this

currently thinkin about how menma from naruto rtn movie is literally sns lovechild🎀

and he's way better looking than 'canon' couples fugly ass kids in boruto!!

[comradefleur]

ppl are literally just mad that sasuke had the gall to be a reactive genocide survivor, but y'all will never say it. he wasn't a perfect victim and that's the problem. y'all simply wanted him to be down with the fuckshit and that's it. y'all expected him to roll over and kiss ass. y'all wanted his trauma to affect him as minimally as possible. he could only be traumatised in an acceptable way. everytime i see someone saying he treated ppl badly or whatever the fuck y'all perceive his behaviour as im like...you're shocked the child who survived a literal massacre at the hands of his BROTHER is cold, untrusting, flighty and destructive? wowww 😭 like free my king all he ever did was yearn for a revolution & be a lil moody & bitchy (if that's what you wanna call it)

i hate when people demonize sasuke for trying to kill sakura at the bridge. she initiated both murder attempts and was in a much more sound mindset. he had finally killed the man who had his entire family murdered, was having a psychotic break, was going blind, and was exhausted. obviously when you attempt to assassinate an incredibly unstable individual, they’re going to be triggered. hell, even a well minded shinobi would probably retaliate in the same way. sakura tries to kill sasuke, but he’s the one in the wrong for…trying to do exactly what she was doing first? her lack of commitment doesn’t matter because she came at him in a way that made it pretty clear she was attempting to murder him. when she hesitates, is he supposed to just wait until she works up the balls to kill him? fuck that

"he's a terrorist!!"

"he's trying to destroy konoha!"

WRONG !

he's my princess and he's never done anything wrong ever

The claim that Sasuke is a misogynist is so unfounded it's not even funny.

Rejecting Sakura's romantic advances is not misogyny. This is something that seems very difficult for many to understand.

Telling Sakura that instead of constantly harassing him with date requests she should train so she could actually contribute to their team is not misogyny. It's the truth.

Fighting back when Sakura is trying to assassinate him is not misogyny. He has fought against other men too, and he would have fought if a man came to assassinate him instead.

Not caring about Sakura's business during the war arc is not misogyny. He didn't care for Kakashi's either.

Calling Sakura annoying when she is disrespecting Naruto, her own family, Sasuke's family/clan or Sasuke's goals is not misogyny. Even the genjutsu is not, because he did it due to her ignorance, not because she's a girl.

Not liking it and telling them to get off of him when Sakura and Karin jump on him and harass him despite his protests is not misogyny.

Sakura suffering because of her feelings for Sasuke is not misogyny from Sasuke nor his fault in any way, she's responsible for her own feelings.

The only person Sasuke ever bowed to (while using honorifics) was an elderly woman. Said elderly woman just wasn't annoying or ignorant like Sakura. He also acknowledged Karin as a strong kunoichi, despite her less flattering actions towards him.

"Sasuke and naruto are just friends"

The just friends in question:

Naruto:

Sasuke:

[shyflowerhologram]

what actually happened: Sasuke defeated Orochimaru, released his prisoners and put end to his horrible experiments and torture, and is on his way to kill a dangerous criminal

how konoha paraphrased it:

ffs tsunade

[moon-trees]

I absolutely can not stand when people say Sakura deserved better - SHE LITERALLY GOT WHAT SHE WANTED. She's the one who chased after, obsessed over and basically annoyed the boy she wanted into getting with her, when Sasuke REPEATEDLY told her to fuck off. He could not make it clearer he was not interested and now she's miserable with a husband who couldn't care less about her and IT'S EXACTLY WHAT SHE WANTED.

It's not Sasuke's fault he was pressured into getting with her. He was literally guilt tripped about how he doesn't love her even though she apparently loves him so much (she literally tried to kill him).

One of them deserved better, and it definitely wasn't Sakura.

istg i’ve never seen a valid reason used by someone explained why they hate sasuke.

90% of the time it’s basically them saying he didn’t react to trauma the way they wanted him to (or doing trauma olympics using naruto, gaara, kakashi, etc as examples of “thEIr TrAUmA DiDN’t TUrN thEm iNtO aSSHOLes”)

5% is again, using very valid trauma from a 7 year old witnessing the death of their entire clan by their brother and being forced to relive it for 3 days, as a way to say he’s “too edgy and emo”

and the other 5% is used by shippers (mainly SS), shaming him for not reciprocating feelings he never felt for the other character
