FERRARI-RED SUPERHEROES

warning for kinda-tl;dr fangirl ranting lol.

what i find most unfair about the match is that ino had a strategy going on. sakura, who was supposedly the brainier one between the two, didn’t. during an intense fight, ino was able to set up a trick and would have won (twice, actually, if you count the time when she just bitch-slapped sakura instead of knocking her out) if it wasn’t for naruto’s untimely interruption and that ‘inner sakura’ bullshit (judging kishimoto so hard for this cop out, tbh). to me, that screamed quality. it shows that ino has a cool head on her shoulder and is able to operate efficiently under pressure, two traits that (in my opinion) are important as a ninja and a fighter in general. she proves to be resourceful, even finding a way around the weakness of her clan technique by improvising on the spot. 

additionally, i love how her team was worrying about her during that match against sakura. they were collectively facepalming because they knew she still cared about sakura, despite their numerous rows. that’s just how ino is. she is the type who cherishes her friends and companions, probably caring a lot more than she knows and shows. she has a tender heart and that just what makes me adore her so, so much. there are multiple facets to her personality; people generally see this loud, brash, annoying girl who can be abusive to her teammates and they judge her by that standard but on the flip side, they conveniently forget that ino is also wise beyond her age (flashback when she first befriends sakura), protective (my god EVERYWHERE she saved people even when she’s not obligated to do so!) and just lskjfnklasjfnkas beautiful inside out. 

idek man. i get emotional over ino all the time. especially when people hate on her and i just went RAWR I’M GODZILLA TRAMPLE TRAMPLE everywhere. there are a lot more issues that don’t sit well with me when it comes to ino but i’m going all flaily and embarrassing at this point idek ha ha. um. 

if kushina didn’t exist, ino would be number one without a doubt

>:C no

she is so much better than that. i always kind of think it’s pointless for people for over-analyze manga and characters but it is so obvious that ino is WAY more than that. it’s just easy to make her the stereotypical blonde bimbo which is unfair to people who totally love her like me and you

omg the fics where ino is depicted as a shameless slut/backstabbing bitch/more airheaded than a hot-air balloon just make me go NO JUST STOP PLS!! >:( i think it’s just easy for people to pigeonhole her into that blonde bimbo stereotype and ignore the depth of her personality because that’s just what they want; that convenient antagonist. when she is one of the most interesting, albeit underdeveloped, characters out there. i think kishimoto just doesn’t know what to do with her; he gave her such high stats for a kunoichi (it makes me giggle when she was placed second for taijutsu, which is way above her male classmates) and this massive potential that just screams for development. pity that she isn’t part of the main team - she would’ve killed it. (although tbh, i prefer asuma as a teacher than kakashi for many reasons). 

despite shikamaru’s intelligence, she is obviously the team leader. she is the heart of team asuma, so much so that asuma himself acknowledges this during his dying speech. i’m just thankful that she wasn’t depicted as weak anymore during the shinobi war arc. she kicks major asses. she encourages and fuels her teammates forward, especially during that fight against asuma (o m g that made me cry srsly). 

i think she’d make a devastating intelligence/undercover agent. with her observation skill, the control she has over chakra and her techniques, as well as her ability to remain calm under pressure. i wish they’d prime her towards this, as well as for torture&investigation lol is my headcanon showing again /facepalm.

“i could also go on forever about how ino is a better person than sakura“ 

omg this so much. not hating on sakura or anything but ino really is so much better in many ways. as long as us stans know this, we’ll gloat over it as much as we want bwahahaha. >:)
