#sakura fandom

if sakura haruno has 5 fans, i am one.

if sakura haruno has 1 fan, that fan is me.

if sakura haruno has 0 fans, i am dead.

if the world is against Sakura, i am against the world.

-probably ino, hinata, naruto and sasuke if they ever discovered she has haters

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I'll precede it by saying - COMPARISON HAS NO SENSE. THEY BOTH HAVE NOTHING TO GAIN.

Sakura is a main character so comparing her to Hinata makes just as much sense as comparing her to Kiba - non.

Hinata is a background character so comparing her to a main makes just as much sense as comparing her to Kakashi - non.

However, the hate between those Fandoms is a different story.

And I'm gonna try to keep it unbiased (as a new years gift I guess) even tho I do have my biases towards those two.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

If you like a character you probably have a reason to do so.

You can like Shikamaru, L (death note) and Sherlock Holmes because you have a thing for those INCREDIBLY INTELLIGENT people.

Or

You can like Obito and Zuko (Atla) because you, like me, are into that good redemption arc.

You can like different characters for different reasons, but if you like intelligent people you are more likely to like Shikamaru than Lee, because they just suit your preferences better.

So it's hard for people to like both Sakura and Hinata.

Sakura is strong and hot-headed

Hinata is shy and timid

Sakura is quick to do something

Hinata is more into watching from behind

Sakura, when she sees something she likes or dislikes, reacts abruptly and harshly

Hinata is gonna blush and faint

Sakuras fighting style is rough, strong and upfront

Hinata is delicate and reserved

Sakura is a junnin

Hinata is a stay at home mom

They are completely different people so:

For Hinata Fans, that love her for her love and admire for Naruto, Sakuras rejecting Naruto time and time again seems stupid.

For Sakura fans that love Sakura for being a strong female character, Hinatas constant need for saving is absolutely dreadful.

For Hinata Fans, Sakuras hot-headedness and need for action is seen as rude and out of place.

If you love Hinata for being shy and reserved, stressed to react, like here:

You can't like Sakura for standing up for herself (and her friends) like here:

(Naruto just insulted Lee that had saved their lives)

4. For Sakura fans, that love her for becoming so strong from nothing, Hinatas great, wasted potential is painful.

When you love Sakura for cannonicaly training hard:

You can't like Hinata for bringing tea to people who do train:

5. When you love Hinata for wanting to stand with Naruto, Sakuras want to fight with both Naruto and Sasuke hand in hand is ridiculous.

If you were proud of Hinata for this:

You see no reason to see this as important:

6. When you love Sakura for carrying for both of her friends, you see Hinatas need to be with just Naruto as selfishness.

If you love Sakura for wanting to be a great ninja to help both of her friends:

You will have a hard time liking Hinata, who to be a better ninja just to be noticed by Naruto:

You can sort of distinguish a characteristics of both Fandoms:

Sakura fans:

Feministic

Independent

With constant need of improvement

Hinata fans:

Loving

Persistent

Shy

So I don't understand why people are surprised that those two Fandoms dislike each other.

You can't be a faminist and stand by Hinata.

You can't be into timid and uncertain characters and stand by Sakura.

That's just how it works 🤷‍♀️

So, in conclusion:

Comparing them is irrelevant, noone has anything to gain from it... but hate? Oh baby! Thats 100% different.

I'm a firm believer into hating fictional character that are against your beliefs.

So stop comparing and start hating them for who they are, not for who they are in comparison to others.

Let's see Hinata fandom the world burn 🔥❤️

Btw:

(I'm gonna hashtag it both with "hinata" and "anti-hinata", because even tho I tried to be objective, I dislike Hinata so... idk how I did xD)

Btw 2:

This is a video essay on the idea of feminism in fandom discourse; and how it's less effective due to the gap between canon intent and fandom demand in the grand scheme of things.
