A lot of fans already explain Bolt is a homage to Naruto's dad and Neji. I kinda accepted that explanation. Sarada... I'm gonna stick to just Sarada until Kishimoto outright says it supposed to be Salad.

I don't care so much about the names as I do Kishimoto's apparent lack of desire to move the Naruto series forward and do something different with it. Unless his publisher has a lot more control over the series than I think.


I have a feeling that he's under contract to do as what Jump pleases and is just rolling with out. As mentioned already, he has been publishing several one-shots... Mario being the most popular that a lot of folks would like to see as a series.

well I'm not really shocked, though I am kinda curious to see what the naruto is like after becoming the seventh hokage, I swear he better know a new jutsu that's not based on a rasaeingan, the move got old and no matter how many things you add to it I'd like to see him use something different, also saskue and sakruas daughter, I wanna see what she's like because the whole saskue having a kid isn't what I was excepting from that kind of character wonder what he's like now.

It's a nickname, not her real name.

The idea of those two fighting each other would be a problem. Especially if Sarada defects from Konoha for reasons similar to Sasuke's.


I see them as the next 'ship!! Oh boy I just hope their fathers don't find out, they will kill eachother!

Am I the only one who finds the name Bolt to be the worse of the two? I mean, I guess it's 'cooler', but...

Name aside, Sarada is everything I ever dreamedspoiler[ Sasuke and Sakura's kid] would be. Laughing

Would you prefer to name your kid:
-Bra
-Briefs
-Trunks

Or any of the large number of food related names used in Dragonball?

And I assume Naruto and Sasuke would support their kids getting together, in fact I'd expect them to encourage it, so they can live vicariously through their kids and see the forbidden love they always wanted.

Nah, Burrito would fall in love with someone else, leaving Salad pining on the table with Mum.

Yeah those names are awful.

And as someone else mentioned, I seriously cannot imagine Sasuke as a dad, and also cannot imagine him married to Sakura.
Anyway, their kid, Sarada, reminds me a whole lot of Karen, more than either Sakura or Sasuke. It's probably the glasses...even though I can believe it more if Sasuke had had a fling with Karen that resulted in a kid than he actually marrying Sakura and having a kid with her.
