He is also better than Kiba at dealing with animals, better than Tenten at throwing stuff, a bigger powerhouse than Lee and Choji combined and better at sensing Chakra than Neji and Hinata.
Yeah, better just remove every character from the manga.

oh come on Sakura took out a Zetsu this war shes on fire!
You guys may be right, but other ninjas became irrelevant, too. It has to be in such a story. It was the same in DBZ for example. But the fight Sakura/Chiyo vs. Sasori is still one of the best in the entire manga, at least if you ask me. So Sakura got her big moments back then
Sakura's a main character though and personally trained by the 5th Hokage
she got so much screentime pre-time skip and does nothing worthwhile then she gets trained by Hokage beats an akatsuki member and then is never mentioned again
It´s not like she is never mentioned again, she just does not beat everyones asses up. So what ? Is there an unwritten law that says every main character has to be strong ? Why can´t there be a main character that is not unbelievably strong (which she is, by the way, just not as some of the others) ? Did Kishi ever say Sakura will be as strong as Sasuke and Naruto ? And that they will fight to their death for the title of Hokage at the end of the story ?

Look at One Piece to see how main characters should be used. Naruto same as Bleach is centered too much on the main character. It's a shonen manga, we all know that the main character will be the super strong unbeatable one day. That's why we'd like also to see the others.

I actually like the way these shonen's have worked, with the primary 1-2 characters doing everything and focusing on them, while the rest are mostly there as support, they introduce power ups every once in a while but eventually it reaches a point where the others fall to the way side, this is inevitable. Since it happens in DBZ, Bleach, Naruto, etc, and really only One Piece seems to be the one who focuses on everyone, wouldn't you say that One Piece is the one that is the exception? Even going back to things like Sailor Moon, she had her other Sailors and they all had power periods, but eventually it became all about Serena right? So... this isn't know, so complaining about it all the time just gets tiresome imo. Sakura acts mostly as a plot device, not meant to be some sort of uber power hero like Naruto. What could she possibly do anyways, she doesn't have imba blood lines to make her godly, so... chances are even ATTEMPTING to make her 'strong' outside of being able to take out an akatsuki (which is already an amazing feat!) would seem more awkward than just letting her fall off.

Yes, One Piece is the one exception. But guess what manga is the most successful of all time? I just wish more writers would take an example of One Piece because one day it will be over and my greatest wish is that when that day comes we can say "But x or y still exists. One Piece's end is not that bad!"...

But that´s the way it is. Personally i don´t like One Piece that much, for me Naruto is way better. But what makes it so good for us is, that they are exceptional.

We're on 610.
Well, two action scenes. Not bad, not bad. Still waiting for the Sasuke switch but I have the nagging feeling someone's going to have to die first, and Sasuke will be the one giving out the end of the series answers or something like that.
I'm bored of these battles. It seems too obvious that the enemy is meant to be literally unbeatable for them, like WAY out of their league no matter what until the big twist. :S I also want to see sasuke appear and do something zzz

NARUTO FANS
Thank you for generalizing :D
I dare you to find one of my posts that say omg I'm bored let's start fighting, tired of sasuke. I originally got into naruto because I thought he was a badass. I figure if it's gotten so bad and it's going to end soon, just show sasuke o_o;;;; and while you put that in a very derogatory and pretentious way, it's also true that if a series has too many fights people will get bored of them anyway, and likewise if there are never any battles.
It's also funny because you will be hard-pressed to find very many people who are legitimately fans of naruto in this thread. We're just going through the motions at this point. Fortunately, at least we're not fools that lack any understanding. You must've been painfully tempted to drop that one again.
Naruto was good in the past. Some moments are really cool but the old Naruto is gone. I think a lot of people are still reading just because of the old times. We want the end, so that we can complain and move on.

I didn't mean to offend you, but you must not have been on this forum very long if you think I'd be "hard pressed" to find posts like that. All you have to do is go back a few pages and you'll see people posting things like that left and right.
I wasn't pointing at you directly, I'm just saying your post was common like most others that are hypocritical as the chapters pass.
