yk the romance/fanfiction trope of two characters confessing how much the other means to them bc they thought they were going to d!e but then ending up living and having to deal with the awkwardness after the confessions? that literally happened with naruto and sasuke
naruto really was out there looking at shooting stars and wishing for sasuke and people still wanna believe that he was a complete heterosexual dude just desperately wanting his buddy pal back
even before they were put in the same team, naruto and sasuke were constantly aware of the other and were comforted and happy because of each other's presence
"The two were one shinobi. Like light and dark, sun and moon. It was as if their power was born from their souls being in correlation.
Two opposing forces that created everything in nature"
- Naruto and Sasuke's description in Boruto : Naruto the movie novel
whoever decided to change this scene from ino speaking negatively about SASUKE in the manga after finding about sakura's crush on sasuke , to her speaking negatively about SAKURA in the anime is not seeing heaven
