sasori is sakura's government assignent manlet villain that was created exclusively to showcase her improvement and character growth. here are my points in no particular order:

students with famous mentors who share a common past (tsunade/chiyo)

having a common figure one wanted to protect (barely knowing them) and one wanted to destroy (knowing them their whole life)

being an extension of their mentors

sakura's other mentor being the son of sasori's parents' killer

the only person aiding sakura coincidentally being the only person sasori is related to

sakura's super strength being the only thing that successfully breaks sasori out of hiruko's body and also the only reason the third is destroyed (something that never happened before)

sasori's impossibly complicated poison being combated by sakura in minutes, the antidote being repurposed as a buff (so we know she can do that)

sakura being able to figure out sasori's fighting pattern in minutes (so we know she can do that)

sasori's fighting style used to show sakura's quick reflexes (so we know she can do that)

being the first and last two people he has every needed to resort using his best weapon (himself) on

knowing both orochimaru and kabuto (one's info used as a central reward for the other)

fighting sasori showcases sakura protecting ppl that aren't in her immediately circle (chiyo)

sakura openly questioning a villain on their humanity and their logic (something she hasnt been able to do on her own, so we know she can do that)

sasori and sakura both having silly season related names

sasori and sakura both having a blonde with bangs companion whom they do not respect enough and also happen to share their sister signs with

only fight that she was involved in and did not have interrupted or taken over by other team 7 members

and last but not least the playing field being leveled by having next to no prestigious bloodline abilities or super buffs involved. everything sasori threw at them was in some way countered by chiyo-sakura

and that was what? 20 years after the fact? PEAK. exactly

Kakashi training Sakura a bit of genjutsu.

There were a few lines in the manga regarding how Sakura is the type for genjutsu and a few panels to suggest that Kakashi taught her something but it sucks it was neither was shown, but oh well. Although it’s a nice thought to have to realize that Kakashi did have a one-on-one training session with each of his students.

I love headcanons, but to be frank it's just so sad to watch Sakura fans trying to make headcanons to make her more interesting.

This was partially prompted by a post I saw recently. OP often references their headcanon that Sakura's parents are abusive, and I can't even be annoyed because it's just miserable. They're doing everything in their power to make Sakura more interesting, and they're still failing.

At this point, I feel sorry that they like Sakura, it must really suck being a Sakura fan.

The shikasaku ship is superior simply because genius x genius in the friends to lovers way is just That good. and before you haters come at me saying sakura's not a genius, let me tell you that a) shut up b) sakura is a civilian born ninja and most people had no expectation from her. all she had was her unnatural chakra control. the fact that she came that far without any genetic advantages (hint: naruto with his huge chakra reserves and sasuke with his shortcut sharingan) is amazing on its own. and the fact that she surpassed her teacher who is a SENJU btw there's advantage there, is simply incredible.

i was going to talk about shikasaku but it turn into a sakura post my bad

I see people will now also blame Kakashi for character issues Sakura has, even though Tsunade obv didn’t fix them either because Sakura CONTINUES to have these issues throughout shippuden.

I really wish people would learn the diffrences between ‘character fault’ and ‘Writer unable to both allow the female lead to express her desire to do better, and then actually follow through and ACTUALLY LET HER DO BETTER’

What if Sakura decided she didn’t want to learn Genjutsu after seeing what happened to Kakashi, so she doesn’t tell Tsunade she has the skill for it, and that’s why it’s never addressed again. Then when Tsunade finds out, she convinces Sakura that it’s useful for healing because you can convince someone else they aren’t in pain, and she’s sets up lessons with Kurenai. Sakura becomes the Genjutsu master she should have been.

i wrote this when i supposed to be asleep but i think about how sasori before he became a puppet was raised in a village where he was only seen a a tool and weapon only to turn himself into puppet and then use his new puppet body as a weapon, designing traps and creating the best poison that coats the insides of his new and improved body.

if i want to reach even further, i think him turning himself into a puppet is symbolic of exactly how he was raised, nothing more than an emotionless tool for suna, his body is disposable they way his parents lives were disposable.

additionally the poison that coats the inside of his puppet and all his weapons/tools could represent a sort feeling that he is poisoned inside, that he is tainted.

but sakura not only creating an actual antidote for his actual poison, makes a sort of symbolic antidote with her speech and her sacrifice at the end of the fight only then sasori had a change of heart and kind of finds a peace that he hasn’t been allotted since his early childhood.
