sns is so fucking unhinged and nobody will ever be them iām sorry. you start the series and itās like oh haha look at these goofy angsty rivals! they hate each other! then sasuke dies for naruto thirty chapters in giving up his dream of revenge and naruto goes batshit insane. now youāre like ah theyāre friends i guess thatās cute! and sasuke is trying to kill naruto because heās the most important person in his life which is . ok and it becomes the driving force of everything or something. sasuke leaves and naruto dedicates the rest of his life to bringing him back and youāre still a casual fan so ur like heās doing it for the promise right? then orochimaru says sasuke is his and naruto goes batshit insane feral homicidal (again) and after that sasuke reappears and they have ??? like five different panels dedicated to them staring at each other??? and he jumps off a mountain and hugs naruto for some reasons just to whisper some gay shit in his ear kishimoto frankly needs to be jailed drawing this and keep that best friend nonsense going. anyways. you have sasuke become a convicted terrorist to which the normal people response is āok we need to hunt him downā and when naruto learns theyāre gonna hunt him down he starts screaming crying throwing up he has a panic attack he canāt breathe heās falling in the snow he gets on his knees and begs them to spare his BFF. after having a meltdown over the thought of sasuke dying what may possibly be the natural coping mechanism any stable person would adapt? of course realising that if sasuke dies he can die too. so he sees sasuke again and after he attempts murdering sakura twice and expresses the intent to murder kakashi heās like. i will bear the burden of your hatred and die with you hehe and if we both die you wonāt be an uchiha and i wonāt be the jinchuuriki to the nine tails and weāll be able to understand each other better in a different lifetime! WEāLL MEET AGAIN IN THE AFTERLIFE BECAUSE NOT EVEN DEATH CAN DO US PART! and sasuke (just as insane as him) doesnāt even flinch heās like what the fuck is wrong with you but then ok letās fuckingggf die together on my god i will kill your first anyways . then they find out they are soulmates and get cute matching tattoos on their hands and decide to fight to the death once more because sasuke is back on his i will shoulder all the hatred of the world alone and i need to kill you because i love you more than anyone else in the world actually youāre the only person i love so you need to DIE and naruto is like I WILL NOT LET YOU SHOULDER THAT HATRED ALONE I WILL FREE YOU FROM THE PAIN and they fight and despite all the whatever weapons used in the war itās a fuckinggg fistfight in which just as sasuke is about to inflict what he thinks is the last blow says āfarewellā¦ my one and onlyā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦. (very long pause to accentuate how heteronormative this next word is gonna be) FRIENDā and fucking stops using his sharingan because not even then he can record the image of naruto dying especially by his hand but naruto STOPS HIM LIKE A f cHAMP and they end up blowing each otherās arms off (rip the matchies) and as theyāre bleeding to the fucking death sasuke is like youāre the only person that has never tried to severe their ties with me why do you go so far for me and naruto from the depths of comphet hell is like because youāre my FRIEND and sasuke being absolutely done with this bullshit is like ok what the fuck does that mean to you then and this is where it gets even gayer and relatable because naruto is like i donāt KNOW i just know that when you hurt i hurt and i just canāt take it and isnāt that the most gay experience thing ever? naruto knows what it feels like to have friends but what he feels for sasuke is so bone deep and unconventional that he cannot make sense of it and can only describe the pain it brings. after that sasuke CRIES LIKE THEYVE GOT ME SOOO FUCKED UP but you know what got me even more fucked up?
naruto waking up bloodied and battered and half alive with one arm missing but still wondering if that was heaven because sasuke was next to him. sasuke looking so happy and peaceful when saying āi lostā as a stark contrast to him looking and feeling like half of his body was being torn apart when he āwonā against naruto in vote1 and left him. the bitterness of victory vs the sweetness of losing if you will. AND HIM COMPARING WHAT HE FEELS FOR NARUTO TO PRAYING MY GODD. did i forget to mention that then we learn that Ohhh it was never a stupid shallow rivalry as we all thought! they have actually been watching each other from afar since they were little freshly traumatised children and have longed to hold each otherās hands since then! what was it sasukeeee you felt warm and fuzzy when you saw naruto to thought of it as a weakness? these two are so astronomically hopelessly desperately obsessed in love with each other itās ridiculous iāve had ENOUGH free me from this mental prison
