People are ignoring the fact that no matter how much weaker Sakura was compared to the enemy she always put up a fight. She fought against the sound shinobi, ino, madara, kaguya, shin.. no matter what she always did her best to protect her teammates or help them achieve the goal she never completely relied on the three geniuses with god like powers

[@lolcall5295]

By the end of the day, it's not really about how weak or strong she is. I think if sakura's actions can be more rational rather than emotional as well as being a bit less annoying (come on, she can become annoying sometimes and i'm not even talking about her gags of punching naruto) maybe people would tolerate her more. Since she's a main character, she took a lot of screentime but sometimes just did these things which kinda made you wish it didn't happen. I'm talking about her false confession on naruto, her putting her peers to sleep when they were trying to help her get to sasuke, etc etc. kishimoto's bad writing also affects her badly like sometimes random things happening like how she can't destroy obito's rinnegan or just crying helplessly screaming for naruto during pain arc when everyone was trying their best to survive (i knew that kishi was trying to show how dire the situation is, but considering konohamaru killed a pain and no one else was really giving into despair, it just kinda made sakura look really weak which is probably also why the sakura summoning naruto meme got more popular. kishi could've made other more insignificant ninja like moegi or iruka to do that but nope, he just had to put it on sakura which was supposed to be one of the more competent ninja), even in the final battle of naruto vs sasuke kishi still made her emotional and helpless as if her character never grew and just cried helplessly, like sasuke tried to kill her in their last meeting twice and there's just no development from her like doubting sasuke or hating sasuke, she's still simping for him unconditionally. She has her moments but kishi just made her worse than she already was.

[@Ragnaracc]

@@lolcall5295 personally I think it would have been a lot more impactful if it was Iruka or konohamaru or even and hear me out on this neji. Or or or. If everyone else was beginning to give into dispair EXCEPT Sakura and Hinata. "Don't worry. Naruto will come. He will beat pain. We just have to make sure we're all here when he gets back." Or if Sakura got a big moment SAVING konohamaru from a pain...or when Naruto finally does arrive Sakura is shown to have been fighting all the pains she could, probably losing badly, but Sakura is supposed to be willful just as much as Sasuke and Naruto. It feels really weird and frankly out of character that she is mostly relegated to sitting on the sidelines crying for Naruto and Sasuke. Personally if I could rewrite it. Everyone is giving into dispair and Sakura stands and gives a Naruto speech about how, "stop that. Naruto wouldn't give up. He will be here soon we just have to survive until then. I'm going to go fight pain. All of you help everyone you can." Then in the middle of her fighting 3 pains Sakura's whole inner monologue is about how she's done being useless. How even if she dies here every moment she stalls pain is a moment closer to Naruto showing up. Every punch she takes is a punch someone else doesn't have to bear. Then in the final moments Sakura is on the ground battered and beaten pain is giving one of his speeches telling her to give into dispair. And she while still bleeding out barely keeping her eyes open, her beyakuga seal used up, clearly out of options she declares, "I will never give up. I am Sakura Haruno, disciple of lady Tsunade of the legendary sanin and the 5th hokage. *Forcing herself to stand up* so long as I draw breath there is always hope. Naruto taught me that. Naruto showed me that. (Insert the swing flashback) all those years he was outcast by the village and I was so mean to him. (Flash back to the scene you all know the one along with others) and yet he never held ill intent towards me. (all the flash backs where Naruto went out of his way to show kindness to her immediately after she was being a bitch) Naruto wouldn't give into dispair and neither will I. I carry the will of fire and if you want to snuff it out you'll have to kill me." Pain goes in for the kill then Naruto shows up.

@@lolcall5295 so annoying to me that not a single person hates on gaara etc for the stuff they did as kids but sakura does a single thing and she is the most annoying character alive.. Sakura went to Naruto to confess in an attempt to stop him from chasing Sasuke because she thought she was putting a burden on him. She was lying to herself and Naruto just so she wouldn't be a burden to him. What led to her believe this was the things Sai said to her. While Naruto was still optimistic about Sakura, seeing Sasuke going down a darker and darker path was really hurting Sakura, she loved him so much that she felt that she had to save him from that and she thought she should be the one to kill him. Which is why she put the others to sleep. She didn't think she would survive that she knew she would probably die fighting at the hands of Sasuke but she was fine with that risk. She just didn't want to risk other's lives as well. Sakura yelling Naruto's name in Pain arc was there to be a cool entrance for Naruto but somehow everyone uses it to hate on Sakura just like they do with anything else. One morning randomly out of nowhere Sakura witnessed all of her village get flattened by some godlike entity. Her master and Hokage was in a coma trying to save people, Kakashi had died, Sasuke was long gone and Naruto was nowhere to be seen. She was running from patient to patient trying to save everyone she can as a 17 year old she was leading the medical ninjas as others were bringing in more and more people. I don't know how you can expect her to not cry and reach a boiling point after doing everything she could. If Naruto didn't show up Pain would probably just take breaks destroying all of Konoha. Who else can she cry for? Is it really Sakura's fault for being the only one who reacts to this situation in a way that actually makes sense? You are saying that everyone else was trying to survive but Sakura was the one saving and healing them. Sakura's love for Sasuke is not just simping. Sakura was always gentle with them and saved them even if it's a small thing like jumping under him as he fell. Sakura felt really lonely in Konoha because she didn't really have nice parents, was bullied in school and her ex best friend never saw her as an equal. Sasuke was one of the first people that understood her and didn't bully her, complimented her and was nice to her. Which is why his actions before leaving was so shocking to her, she was lonely again once Sasuke left. Which is why she even tells him to take her too. If you ask me I'd love seeing Sakura fight Sasuke after he killed Danzo but well yeah that's just Kishimoto not wanting to draw women fighting i guess ... Which is why I'm voting Sakura for Narutop99 One day I'll be making long ass videos about Sakura

I am fine with everything if they just made sakura fight after meeting chakra deprived sasuke on the bridge surely she would be able to put on a fight against a tired sasuke.. them fighting a little and sakura doing talk no jutsu would be nice to see and after that sasuke would have to dip cuz of the others catching up. please if naruto ever gets remade give us something.. anything... PLEASE

[@rhianwenshelygin2187]

I agree here!!! There are many small scenes that are heartwarming and make me feel Sasuke did have feelings for Sakura but was not ready to acknowledge them. Overall... I have a very soft spot for SS, yet I do understand the criticism. And I agree that's a little bit of a stretch considering the things Sasuke has put her through. As for me, I'd like SS to be rewritten. Nick said in a video about rewriting Sakura that she should have really fought Sasuke on that bridge. And that is absolutely true. I hate how Kishimoto took away that opportunity from her - to both develop as a character and show her relationship with Sasuke more dramatic, let's say? Also talk no jutsu that you mentioned... I need that. I can understand why she does not hate him after all those years. Sasuke was a mentally unstable teen who has gone through a severe trauma and nothing will change my opinion here I'm afraid. Sakura is a healer & she creates mental health clinics for children - therefore I assume she understands the importance of mental stability itself and the fact that growing up does not mean you'll recover from what has hurt you in past. People are being chased by their own demons through their whole life and so is Sasuke. To me, it'd be weird if he hadn't gone crazy or at least hadn't had some real bad neurosis... However; what I said above about clinics... it referrs to the time when Sakura is an adult. On that bridge she is still a teen - I feel that after the situation on the bridge she should have had more doubts about own feelings. She forgives too many things and too soon. She is too young to understand the impact that trauma had on Sasuke. The understanding should have come gradually with the time passing. I'd rather to see her a bit anxious of Sasuke during the war, much less trusting, and maybe even angry. You can love someone and still feel you cannot fully trust them (which is probably a red flag! but no one said relationships in Naruto need to be all in green ones...). When loving a person, usually all the emotions we have towards them are stronger. Including anger. Immediate change in Sasuke after the fight with Naruto was also too rapid to me, hah. Sure, the curse of hatred could be gone etc... But it still does not fix Sasuke's mental health. At least to me that solution was a bit lazy. But even if curse of hatred was the only reason he acted the way he did... and he changed... and he wanted to fix things... then I think he should have been the one trying to fix his terms with Sakura after realising how poorly he treated her. I'd like to know some more about their journeys, talks, and see her slowly accepting him and recovering own feelings towards him. This way SS would be a much more mature and less foggy relationship. Sasuke should not have this big head start & in fact his relationship with Sakura needs much more work than with anyone else if wanting to repair the damage he's done. And I'm sorry for ranting under your comment but since it was related and your opinion inspired me to speak up my mind, hope you don't mind!!

I don't think Hiruzen is a good man. Why did he leave poor Naruto, a baby, basically fend off for himself? Why couldn't he adopt Naruto and raise him in his house with his wife and children/grandchildren like he promised Minato and Kushina? We see Naruto basically growing on instant ramen or catching wild fish to survive. How can you say that a man that promised to protect the village, promised the parents he would take care of their child and has power to squash whoever goes against him is good when he leaves a baby, and not only a baby, but the jinchuriki (basically their ultimate weapon to defend then against other villages tailed beasts) abandoned? He might be a peaceful, harmonious, calm and tranquil ruler and ninja, but he is not a good man. Not only that but he was so very lucky Naruto strived to be good and lovable or he would have a Gaara 2.0 and maybe a new rampage with Naruto letting Kurama control him and destroy the village.

Just an inconsistency I find odd, when we talk about Sasuke's communication with Sakura we bring up all the bad moments, but we've never done the same with Gaara or Neji when they're at their lowest. If you asked someone if their worst interactions with other characters defined those relationships they'd vehemently disagree. I think people overthink how angry Sasuke was towards people in part one and when he insulted Sakura it sticks, but when you actually watch interactions with, he treats her pretty normal? He takes her ideas seriously and communicates like any normal person would and the worse things he said to her was in regards to what she said about Naruto and shutting her down when she tried to be intimate with him, both of which were actually very reasonable responses (and I say that as a Sakura fan and SS shipper) People seem to over exaggerate how "toxic" the relationship is, but go back and watch part one and when he responds to her it's not nearly as bad as we think it is.

Personally I feel like Sakura is frankly out of character most of the time...like hear me out. She's shown to be incredibly willful most of the time, same as Sasuke and Naruto. But in most combat situations she's basically relegated to standing on the sidelines crying for help. Pretime skip, that's fine. Its realistic. Its human. She doesn't have unlimited mana cheat like Naruto nor does she have uno reverse eyes like Sasuke. Post time skip it feels like she has the 1 good scene with granny chio and that's it. Personally I think her biggest moment should have been in the pain arc. Everyone is giving into dispair, losing hope. Sakura stands and gives a big speech about how "Naruto will save us. We just have to survive until then" all of the people doubt him because "you mean the demon fox kid?! We're doomed" then have her get visibly angry before she has time to yell at the rando neji or Hinata or Frankly everyone from Lee to the ramin guy stand up agreeing that Naruto wouldn't give up, didn't give up, so we can't either. Sakura declares she's going to go hold off pain everyone needs to retreat and help everyone she can. Lee insists on going with her. With pain we see konohamaru defeated a pain only for 3 more to show up and undo it and proceed to get beat within an inch of his life until Sakura shows up and hands him off to lee. Declaring "I'm going to fight pain alone. I might not be able to defeat him but I can hold him off until everyone is safe and Naruto gets here." Lee gives her some food pills before leaving. Insert epic fight between Sakura and 4 pains and her barely keeping up. Pulling out all the stops. Eventually a 5th shows up and she starts having to get tricky using her hax and what not. All while her inner monologue is just about how she's done being useless. How even if she dies here every moment she stalls pain is a moment closer to Naruto showing up. Every punch she takes is a punch someone else doesn't have to bear. Then in the final moments Sakura is on the ground battered and beaten pain is giving one of his speeches telling her to give into dispair. And she while still bleeding out barely keeping her eyes open, her beyakuga seal used up, clearly out of options she declares, "I will never give up. I am Sakura Haruno, disciple of lady Tsunade of the legendary sanin and the 5th hokage. *Forcing herself to stand up* so long as I draw breath there is always hope. Naruto taught me that. Naruto showed me that. (Insert the swing flashback) all those years he was outcast by the village and I was so mean to him. (Flash back to the scene you all know the one along with others) and yet he never held ill intent towards me. (all the flash backs where Naruto went out of his way to show kindness to her immediately after she was being a bitch) Naruto wouldn't give into dispair and neither will I. I carry the will of fire and if you want to snuff it out you'll have to kill me." Pain goes in for the kill then Naruto shows up.

[@filipladan7756]

Its more of a theory than a opinion but when Hiruzen was called the strongest shinobi ever early on in the show, it might be because he was ORIGINALLY supposed to be the strongest until Kishimoto decided to change it. Kind of how a lot of the in lore opinions sometimes dont make sense is because the writers AFTER writing those statements decided to change it, in Hiruzens case that would be to make him weaker or to make Hashirama stronger than he was originaly supposed to be.

I thought Sakura largely redeemed herself in Shippuden but when she had the chance to destroy the rinnegan before madara could take it but she just completely froze and didn't do it brought her down a lot.

Most people just see Orochimaru as "that terrifying bad guy". They don't see, or in many cases, understand, just how much of a shock seeing Orochimaru's labs must have been for Hiruzen - or how Hiruzen believed Orochimaru's downfall must have somehow been his fault, since he had been the one to raise him. Jiraiya, on the other hand, is introduced as not just a goofball but also kind of a hero, painting him in a completely different light. People will see the two differently because they were introduced like this.

Pre time skip Sakura was completely useless. She was always intelligent and skilled in chakra control but in a fight she was useless. She was the type of person who knew all the theory but didn't have the ability to apply it in real life combat. Most of Sakura's hate come from her being a very annoying character pre time skip with no purpose. Remove her from the story and nothing significant changes. Post time skip she gained a few feats but was still just an annoying third character that never felt like a main character.

I know this video says "DEBUNKED" but honestly I think most of those Hiruzen defense points are kinda weak. The rest of the video is mostly solid but engaging with Sarutobi apologia is just going to be difficult because he had a bad set up. The real reason Hiruzen was so awful at being a guardian for Naruto and neglected him so badly was the same reason Naruto had to be hated by the village and all that, to give Naruto the rough childhood for the underdog story. The point of "Well Hiruzen was bad yeah, but OTHER PEOPLE were also bad and should have helped like Jiraiya", does nothing at all to invalidate the fact that Hiruzen should have and easily could have done more for him. There's basically no real believable excuse for what he did, in this video there wasn't one for sure. Same kind of applies to Hiruzen letting Orochimaru go. Again, a valiant attempt at trying to run defense for an inexcusable act, but still pretty weak. You can appeal to the emotions of Hiruzen seeing Orochimaru as a son but let's be totally complete real for a second here. If you see your own child engaging in human experimentation on the scale of like Dr. Mengele and you do nothing to stop them permanently, you are just flat out the worst scum on the face of the earth and there is pretty much no excuse you can give to justify letting them go, especially not flimsy "Oh but he loved him though you guys!".

Why people keep bashing on Sakura because of that? The WHOLE village hated, ignored, mocked and shunned Naruto! We saw him being beaten randomly several times by other kids, being shooed away by shop vendors and some people even throwing salt on the street where he walked (salt is supposed to fend off against demons). Not only that he was basically abandoned by Hiruzen, who promised to take care of him. Sakura was raised in such a village, she probably grew up listening to horrible things being said about Naruto, children will behave the same way the adults around them do. The reason why Sakura said what she said and no one else did was 1) They were on the same team, she saw him every day and was in constant contact with him, so there was a higher probability of saying something then all the other Kohona 12 ninja. Because let's remember, when they were all in class together, Sakura also didn't say anything to Naruto off hand. Also, both Shikamaru and Sasuke called Naruto idiot, stupid and failure several times. Ino, alongside other teammates and ninja, also kept calling Naruto a loser on the chuunin exams and hoping for him to lose, while Sakura was the only one who cheered for Naruto. 2) She has a hot temper and is straight forward. We can see that in her "Inner Sakura" where she is always trying to restrain, with a lot of difficulty, hee true thoughts and feelings. That's why we don't see Inner Sakura anymore on Shippuden because Sakura embraced her real self. Naruto is the only person with who Sakura is totally and completely honest. With everyone else, "Inner Sakura" keeps popping up to stop her from saying what she thinks. So being straight forward and a hot head and also angry with Naruto she said something evil. What she said, probably everyone else thought too, but unlike her they didn't open their mouth to say it. Also, Sakura was the only person who ever apologized to Naruto for her behaviour and also his first, true friend alongside Sasuke. 3) Unlike other kids, her parents were random civilian, she probably never experience death in her family when a child, being spoiled by her parents with no notion of war and loss, for her being an orphan or all alone in the world was probably an alien idea that didn't happen. I can also imagine her parents being the ones to say Naruto was a bad child because no one taught him manners, usually children will learn this type of insult from their parents. When children insult each other is always basic stuff like "you're stupid" "you have no brains", etc. Believe me I was a middle school teacher. 12 year old kids called butt and a-hoke to each other all the time. Kids who usually were more emotionally perceptive and came up with very detailed insults, were usually kids who had been put through very rough lives so they had to grow up quickly (and rough can be anything from divorced parents, to neglectful parenting, to abuse, etc). Either that or they learned this type of stuff from their family. 3) Let's not forget Ino bullied Sakura, when they were supposedly friends, all because Sakura had a larger forehead. It's evil and it can crush a child's self esteem, but hey, because Sakura isn't Naruto it doesn't matter right? Also, let's not forget that Ino also calls Sakura a loser for hanging out with Naruto but again, because it's Ino who says it, we just pretend it never happened right? So, I'm not trying to say Sakura was a saint, but no one is, especially on this show and when it comes to Naruto, everyone was from bad to evil to him. Sakura at least apologized, cheered him on, even sacrificed herself against the sound ninja to protect Naruto, became his friend, his companion, all this on the Naruto OG and she still receives flack???? All the other kids and adults that bullied, mocked, ignored, insulted Naruto all get scott free.

I agree with the fact that she is not useless since she was personally trained by the 5th hokage, she has super strength and is a great medical ninja. In fact, she is not useless at all. However if you take Naruto and Sakura and make them a couple and place them in real life, then it would be seen as a very manipulative and abusive relationship based on gender violence from Sakura towards Naruto. I know a lot of anime fans like the idea of girls who are aggressive and mean and who are abusive and they are seen as “cute and playful” but in real life, these types of women end up in jail for abuse like Amber Heard and what she did towards Johnny Depp. I don’t think girls like Sakura is cute at all for her abuse towards many male characters in Naruto.

Hiruzen becomes a more interesting character if you prescribe to him malice not incompotence. Take the following series of events in consideration and how they benfitted him or Konoha: 1. Decline of the Senju Clan: Hiruzen would have benefitted by filling in the power vacuum 2. Fall of Uzushiogakure: Hiruzen sacfriced an ally to weaken opposing villages and saving Konoha manpower for the coming war 3. Death of Sakumo Hatake: All Hokage were fell in one chain of Disciple-Student relationships. Sakumo was outside this paradigm. The Sannin could be Hokage. Minato or Danzo could be hokage. But Sakumo could not. So what do you do? Disparge his public image and taint his character. His death, I suspect was not expected. 4. Minato is chosen over Orochimaru: Minato was a civilian; he was young; he did not have as much support as Orochimaru; he was easier to control. Hiruzen could maintain more power. 5. Uchiha and Naruto as Scapegoats: Konoha needed to went it was ok directing that anger to the Uchiha who--Hiruzen as Tobirama's student--naturally wants suppress and Naruto as it could allow Hiruzen to be the only source of positivity in the child's life. So that you can color the jinchuriki and control him. 6. Uchiha Genocide: The Uchiha were always a destablizing factor--Danzo explicitly believes that. If Hiruzen shares that belief is it alright to neutralize them. He could have reach out and tried to talk. Itachi himself blames the council for wasting the 1 year brought to them by Shisui's sacrifice in the novel. Hiruzen drags his feet. And once the deed is done, Itachi notes that Hiruzen's insights become much sharper ("as sharp as the sharigan. If only you could have shown this earlier). So it is plausible that he was acting dumb only to force the Uchiha into a tough spot.

[@ec77865]

In my opinion, Hiruzen didn't even TRY with Naruto and your reasoning isn't enough. We all know Kushina's wish to him but Hiruzen also knows Minato's wish for Naruto to be able to one day control Kurama's chakra for the village. Naruto could have been given a teacher much sooner like his own grandson Konohamaru got to start early with that training. He could have assigned a caretaker to Naruto so he at least had a clean home and fresh food daily. He could have made it a crime to harass Naruto like the villagers did considering he was literally a ticking time bomb of kyuubi chakra. There were so many options that he straight up never did because he decided he was going to be hands off on the matter for no real reason other than his own selfish feelings. He could have been the direct cause of the destruction of the village by Naruto's hands if Naruto wasn't so forgiving. That makes him a bad hokage in my eyes.

Bro , sakura being usless was never about her strenght To be honest we all know she's not effectivelly useless , she's the best medic ninja ever The probleme is not her strenght being less then the others , her proboeme was her attitude ,fin was effectivelly as usefull as she was yet nobody makes jokes about her because she didn't have the attitude of sakura What made her useless is not her abilities but the fact that her being on the screen or not effectivelly just made the scean bad because we already know what she's going to do , get abgry for no reason and hit naruto for no reason That's what made her useless if you want , if she was more like sarada she would've been better , yes she has a angry attitude but she doesn't show it every damn time she's on thd screan and the only time she really was childish was at the academy where she was effectivelly still a child So the probleme with sakura is the attitude that is super annoying Althought their is times where i liked her a lot like in the fight with sasori , thag was a really really good charactere developpement for her or the war arc where she was a pivot of the medic troupes ,or when she helped obito bring back sasuke She was cool sometimes but that's the probleme , only " sometimes " and if she had a diffrent attitude her weakness would've not been a provleme

[@breadofficial]

is it canon that Hiruzen's wife died during Obito's attack on the leaf? if so he could've held some resentment towards Naruto for that, similar to how Iruka felt

Sakura truly was the most useless in the naruto like the show specifically. She showed us how strong she got when she fought with chiyo against sasori but after that and before that literally useless until the very end of the show it was just sad because we know she could have done so much more.

[@joybwoy]

It wasn't necessarily useless use had nothing so what can she some little things you may say that's not useless

i wish that if they were going to go with the sakura and sasuke relationship they would have sakura be much less forgiving and have sasuke actually DO something in order to get sakura's trust back, have him prove that he is trying to better himself for her and the village. the way he got let off the hook for literally abusing her because 'she loved him' was so stupid and extremely toxic

[@Infamous1892]

Sakura does nothing but sit back and cry about Sasuke. When Naruto is down and out she doesn't uplift him. She always bullies him and belittles him. Yea she got better by the end, but that's not enough. Her and Sasuke deserve each other.

[@joybwoy]

Lollll did you watch the show or read the manga? Bcs it is pretty obvious that you didn’t so there’s no point arguing with you 😅

[@anti-you8580]

Sakura being the one of the first people to actually take naruto's dream seriously and ACTIVELY support and protect it. Don't act as if she didn't give thought about sasuke when she almost gave up in chunin exams for Naruto. "She always bullies and belittles him" you must be talking about sasuke cause sakura didn't . Get your facts right.

[@Ragnaracc]

So this might just be an unpopular/popular opinion but I kinda think sakura should have been Hinata. Like from the word 'go'. Hinata has arguably better chakra control, with the magic eyes she'd be able to look at someone's whole body all at once at a celular level. And it'd be better for Sakura too. If she was on team 8 with kiba and Shino she would have had argueably more chance to shine on her own. Without sasuke distracting her, and yada yada yada, she'd been more focused on her own training? Maybe...it's hard to talk about Sakura is "useless" without talking about Sasuke and thats kinda... Anyway. Without Naruto she wouldn't be able to project her own self doubt and what not onto him. Thus she'd be forced to confront her own issues. So if Hinata and Sakura got switched both would have thrived. As people and as characters...

[@maomi1852]

If they had been switched it would have been great for Sakura because Kurenai was team 8's teacher. She could have detected Sakura's chakra control and impervious innate ability against genjutsu and train her on genjutsu. Make her like a mini Kurenai, like might guy did with Rock Lee. But I think it was due to the fact that the Byakugan and Uchiha clan were not in good terms and that two eye ninjutsu wielders was too much for one team. After all the teams were supposed to be balanced. Ino-shika-cho are an already made team from previous generations, so of course they wouldn't be changed, and the might guy team already has neji.

Bad writing is literally the ends all to this regardless. Her being a main character makes the bad writing worse. How do you sideline a main character? The fictional character isn't gonna write and make things consistent.

[@bshiii3907]

She’s (medical ninja ) And the rules of the medical ninja stipulate that the medical ninja does not fall within the fighting, and his priority is to treat the injured. Only in the case of activating the seal, he can break this rule, didn't you know???

[@wdgaster7791]

You know what I wish they had done, given the Sasuke Light Novel intrudicing a Kekkai Genkai in the same area Hidan was, was that they dropped the ball with Hidan in general. He has relatively the same eye color, hair color, and similar location. Kakuzu confirms that he can't be dead because he wasn't reanimated in the 4th Great War. Which means someone got him out of the hole. What I would love to see is them re-introducing him, and actually using a reasonable thing he could have. Give that cocky immortal guy more than just an immortal gimmick and bring him back, slap the Ketsuryūgan on him. Maybe he could be of use somewhere in Boruto. Who knows.

[@wdgaster7791]

@ATTTICUS When every shinonbi is ressurected, Kakuzu made the comment that Hidan was not present. Which means he most likely is still alive.
