I don't "hate" or "hate on" people or anime. I do not even like the word used, personally, BUT~ I mayyy strongly dislike something XD
I don't hate or dislike Sakura & I LOVE the pale pink hair! I like that she was more reserved and came out of her shell and how determined she is, but I wish there was more to her character, more slice of life; more depth. Why I like her "less" than many Naruto or anime characters is because she is also loud and abrasive at times, which does equal annoying sometimes, and in Sakura’s character, for me, this is the case, just like that can turn me off in rl, depending on the person and how annoying. The overly dramatic /irrational and mean/violent behavior to Naruto is no plus & not cute to me either. I never liked that kinda thing. Even on a kindergarten playground Sakura's punching the heck out of her friend in the face is really uncool and it gets old. [I’d rather hear Kagome, from Inuyasha say “sit.”] I sometimes want a character to be more mature or even for their age. I would like them better. Her slap-stick violence seems over-used. If this is what she is learning, lol, then not all people should be Ninja. I thought ninja were "subtle" & shadows... lol. Sakura is pretty bright and loud. No I don't care for that in her character. To me it does not add to and it seems to make her shallower. As a medical ninja it hardly seems fitting for brute strength in one who otherwise seemed timid and mousey. It is a juxtaposition that does not work here for me. No, she is not my favourite Naruto/anime character.
I wish there was more to her background & more to her.
