HaruKO?

Isn't it HaruKO? Or is that my dodgy internet english subtitles?--ZayZayEM 00:26, 15 Oct 2004 (UTC)

That is definately your dodgy subtitles. WhisperToMe 05:45, 29 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Another Sakura Haruno

There is another anime character with the name Sakura Haruno. She's from an anime called "Wandaba Style" — Preceding unsigned comment added by GreatDragonLord (talk • contribs) 05:50, 1 May 2005

Naruto 2 Arc

Now that the battle with Sasori is over, I think the article could use a little update soon. Unfortunately, I'm way too busy to do it myself, so I leave it up to one of you. 80.202.68.155 19:46, 6 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Tackling Sakura

I would really appreciate it if somebody helped me put some work and a fresh perspective into this article. The template that worked for Naruto, Sasuke, Neji, Hinata, Gaara, Rock Lee and all those other dramatically themed characters just doesn't work with Sakura, who's really defined more by her interactions with other characters and changes in point of view than by any prevailing themes in particular even now (and consider the earlier days when her major defining theme was "Sasuke-kun!"). --AceMyth 02:51, 10 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

What do you need, specifically? VegitaU 23:45, 26 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

purpose

Sakura needs more of a purpose in the fillers, especially in the series — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.218.219.219 (talk)

Perhaps so, but that hardly has anything to do with Sakura herself as a person. Observation 15:40, 10 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sakura's Wiki page

Sakura's Wikipedia page needs to be cleaned desperately. Towards the latter Naruto arc sections on the page, it seems someone is just summarizing how the story is going. That's nice, but is a character page for Sakura really the place to do it? Also, it is very clear that the author favors a Naruto/Sakura pairing. This anime is filled with pairing preference "shippers" who often fight and insult each other. Can't this one page be neutral? It's about the character herself, not speculations of some fans over who she should/will end up with, nor is it a story summary. Please, somebody change this page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.97.181.92 (talk) 06:35, 15 May 2006

I hardly think the author is biased towards Naruto/Sakura. S/he was simply pointing out facts that should be plainly obvious to anyone who has read the manga. (Example, if Yamato wasn't about to suggest that Sakura was developing feelings for Naruto in 297, then what exactly WAS he about to say? What would the point of the scene have been otherwise?)

Furthermore, I don't hear anyone whining about how biased the Hinata page is toward the pairing of Naruto/Hinata, which it most definitely is--but then again, that's the most popular pairing in Western fandom, so no surprise there. Starlightmusic 22:22, 27 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well it's not so much that hinata's page is bias, as it is that hinata's life as of now still revolves around her feeling for Naruto. Its hard to keep it out as it shades everything she does.--Master Shan 22:16, 22 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Another exam for Sakura? ( and Ino,too? )

Considering the fact that both Sakura and Ino had lost in the preliminaries,does this mean that they had to undergo the next exam during the three year gap? — Preceding unsigned comment added by R.G. (talk • contribs) 04:49, 27 June 2006

They must have gone through a Chūnin exam during that time, it doesn't have to be the next one available. We don't know how often it occurs, but it isn't that hard to believe an exam is held at least once a year. Giving everyone at least two exams to reach Chūnin. -- Pedantic79^(talk) 05:22, 27 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It occurs twice every year. Considering that Naruto is still Genin, he may take the next one, but may not due to the fact that the exam rules require a three-man team. Sakura's a Chūnin, she can't take it again, and Sasuke's obviously not there. He may have to sign with another team altogether. The Wretched 03:39, 30 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Question : How DID Sakura become a Chunin without going through the third part of the exam?Or is there something I missed? - R.G. 05:38, 16 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Unless I'm completely wrong, Naruto beats Neji and passes the exam the FIRST time, Sasuke comes back and beats Gaara, and Sakura becomes a Chūnin during the time skip. --Sasuke-kun27 07:23, 16 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

In response to R.G. - It's still one of those unknown things. Personally, I think she probably formed a squad with Ino and Choji during the timeskip for the exam. After all, Shikamaru was the only one to pass the exam that time around, and Sakura was the only one left after her team fell apart. So it's not entirely unlikely. ...but this is still just my opinion. Taniara 08:47, 16 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Far too many Illustrations

This article is lacking useful illustrations, and the existing illustrations are far to numerous compared to the other articles about Naruto characters. We should consider removing some of the illustrations.
