Sasuke and Sakura and their ensuing love story is one of the key plot points in the series. Starting off as a one sided infatuation of Sakura to Sasuke eventually blossoms into mutual love, affection and adoration.
Born into the famed Uchiha Clan, Sasuke starts off as a prodigy in the art of being a ninja. Driven by the sole desire to kill his brother, Itachi for slaughtering his village, Sasuke turns to the dark path of vengeance and alienates those around him, including Sakura. Sasuke grows to be one of the most powerful ninjas, with his abilities including the formidable Uchiha Sharingan, the lightning strike Kirin and eventually the Rinnegan.
- Mangekyo: Certain Uchiha clan members are endowed with the Mangekyo Sharingan, a more advanced version of the Sharingan vision power. It bestows upon the user powerful, personalized abilities. Following the death of his brother Itachi Uchiha, Sasuke activates his Mangekyo Sharingan.
- Amaterasu and Susanoo: Sasuke’s Mangekyo Sharingan abilities include Susanoo, a gigantic spectral warrior who can wield weapons and act as a shield, and Amaterasu, a black fire that ignites and burns anything it touches, consuming its victim completely.
Sasuke’s character is revealed to be deep, charismatic, and captivating. A mix of resolve, stoicism, ambition, protectiveness, and even loneliness. He is presented as a dark character, marked by his strong desire for vengeance, willingness to go to tremendous lengths to achieve his goals, and tendency to emotionally alienate himself from others.To be Sasuke, you must show a cold, calm, and stoic manner while completely rejecting your compatriot Sakura’s advances or having a warm spot for her.
Sakura Haruno, unlike Sasuke, starts off as an ordinary kunoichi with a relatively normal upbringing. She is infatuated with Sasuke. As the series progresses, we see her under the tutelage of Lady Tsunade through which she becomes formidable at Medical Ninjutsu and gains exceptional Chakra control. She undergoes noteworthy character development and she is recognized as one of the greatest medical ninjas in the world.
- Medical Ninjutsu: Sakura is capable of healing even the most devastating injuries. She has demonstrated the capacity to regrow a missing piece of a person’s body, extract poison, and mend the resulting damage. Sakura managed to keep Naruto alive by manually pumping his heart.
- Strength of a Hundred Seal: Sakura spent almost three years gathering chakra in her forehead following Tsunade’s guidance. Sakura employed this power, also known as the Byakugou, during the Fourth Great Shinobi War, and it is widely regarded as the peak of Chakra mastery. When this seal is engaged, Sakura is able to place her body in a state where she can heal herself without stopping during combat and is unaffected by any injuries.
Sakura Haruno’s personality changes dramatically over the Naruto series. Sakura is first portrayed as a quiet and insecure girl, but she grows into a powerful, motivated, and caring person over time. Sakura has a strong sense of dedication and perseverance, and she works hard to enhance her combat skills in order to become a skilled ninja.
