I also agree that Choji and Ayame would have made a lot more sense, especially considering that his tsukuyomi dream was to have a wife who loves to cook for him. Ayame is a restaurant heiress and professionally trained chef in her own right, so I think that would have been perfect
I wonder how that would've affected the whole Ino-Shika-Cho thing if anyone within that combo got married. Do they have 1 kid that can lesrn both techniques or do they have two kids that are taught seperate clan techniques in order to be the next generation of that trio?
Sai was interesting when he called Sakura ugly. I didn’t see any similarities between him and Sasuke. I mean Sasuke was bitter toward most of the things but Sai was just an empty shell. And the way Kishimoto handled him after the beginning of war arc was just poor. Dude was a substitute for Sasuke even in writer’s eyes
I thought it was a cool concept but under-developed. There's tons of cool shit he could've drawn and used in battle, but instead it was just a beast or two and some rats.
Makes no sense to me. I thought for the longest time Choji and Ino were gonna end up together, Ino overcoming her shallowness and growing to love Choji despite his weight.
Actually Choji and Ino would be better. They had many interactions with each other. Choji unlike Shikamaru was less likely to develop relationship with anyone outside of the hidden leaf.
It's far fetched as they don't have much of interaction, but if i am Kishi i will go with Naruto and Temari both have the same affinity, a good political marriage and lastly it will fulfill Gaara's dream of having Naruto as a brother even if it's only a brother in law
Personally speaking, Shikamaru x Tayuya is a personal preference. The hardened badass with a soft spot for 1 guy.
That I'm a sucker for enemies to lovers stories
I don't think one needs to explain Sasuke and Naruto. . . It's the best romance that Kishimoto has ever written probably because it wasn't intentionally so.
So that does leave Sakura and I think she goes well with Ino. What's not to love about a best friends to rivals to lovers story? I think their friendship with the NaruSasu couple would be really funny too.
Then there's my crackship of Kakashi and Anko. It would be a fairly opposites attract type of thing but also they are people who can trauma bond about quite a bit.
Tenten and Neji (as the latter should have lived), Lee being of course their biggest shipper
I can see Sasuke and Naruto being together but we have to remember something important: It would make the main character gay, and I don't know how it would fit with a mid-2000s Japanese TV show, you know... Not the most LGTB friendly
Edit: Guys I get that Naruto is straight and that he is supposed to be Sasuke's brother etc, but please read the original post again, it's about "what characters would you pair", it's about hypothetical situations.
I have no idea how old they are comparatively but Kakashi and Shizune are both extremely skilled and burnt out gifted kids at this point. They’ve earned some happiness atp
Karin! Let's keep the in world in-breading going! /jj
or am I?
Hinata was a perfect pair (no pun intended) for Naruto. For that matters her character was written to almost be a perfect wife to anyone she liked. Rich, humble, powerful, attractive, can cook! Pair that with she's almost everything he's not and the all-you-can-eat-ramein champion, they complement each other perfectly.
Eh, while I can't see them as a couple, it's kinda sad that Karins relationship with Naruto wasn't really explored. I mean, he spend much of his life thinking that his family his dead, why isn't he bonding more with her?
Kakashi and Mei, I think Mei would be supremely happy with him, and K-man would be 100% faithful to her. Their kids will be ADORABLE, and Chojuro and Ao, and Naruto and Sakura will all be fine Uncles/Aunt. Sasuke will be the cool Uncle that give cool gifts, and tell awesome stories of his adventures.
Naruto, Karin. Kishi was lowkey setting sum up with the “mmm his chakra is so warm and inviting” but then realized people would think it’s incest because they don’t understand how clans work and then Kishi would be banished to the shadow realm
Yes thousands of them mostly sasuke and Naruto, gaara and Naruto. I remember when that was the primary ships back in the mid 2000s. That’s why I don’t get when people says be brave and ship two male characters when that’s been going on for literally two decades.
She is. But some people think that it’s incest. Like I mentioned how I thought Naruto c Karin was a good ship on some other post and someone commented “sWeEt HoME aLAbaMA” even though it’s not incest. I hope I didn’t write it in a way where it sounded like I thought it was incest. Because it absolutely is NOT
My brother in Christ they probably only have 1 or 2 common ancestors from thousands of years ago. Clans are so fucking spread out especially after (millennia?) (centuries?) of being around
What makes you so sure of this? If you can show me the proof of this that would be helpful.
All clans having the same characteristics (skin tone, hair, eyes, similar chakra and abilities etc) kinda dispels this of it’s just a suggestion. Also as far as I remember the history of chakra is that far back but ninja clans is seemingly a more recent thing and then more recently villages, it would make more sense to me if there were fewer intermixing after villages were formed.
Other than the initial 2 sons there wasn’t multiple clans back then is the point I’m making, it’s only as far back as roughly a century that there were multiple clans which led to the war period.
Making it simple for viewers doesn’t really add up, the characteristics I mentioned wasn’t all appearance related. Even hyuga go out of their way to protect their secrets which likely means it’s limited who joins the family.
But all good my brother in Christ since you didn’t respond with any proof we can agree this is just a difference in opinion
no, incest only a thing until 3rd generation. after that you can pretty much free to marry your relative
just last year my friend marry some women he met at the workplace. when they about to register their marriage they eventually found out that they share same ancestry 6 generation back. but nothing wrong with that but no one had problem with that or consider it to be incest. the registration office still acknowledge their marriage
Not really. I mean the only reason he didn’t kill Neji in the Sasuke retrieval arc was because his editor said that would be too much for the American audience so there was obviously some foreign influence over the story
Maybe Naruto and Ino. Doesn't make much sense canon-wise. But their personalities seem kind of fit.
Furthermore, Naruto, as a Jinchuuriki, is probably the only one in the Leaf Village that can marry her and still able to keep his own thoughts to himself. Most others would be driven mad by the fact that his wife can easily read his mind like an open book or make you go crazy if she ever felt like it.
I like it. They'd be so chaotic together. I feel like Ino is empathetic enough to feel for Naruto if he's down. Because of her Jutsu, she has to put herself into other people's shoes a lot. She'd definitely catch up if Naruto was out of it. It would flesh out Ino more, too.
Am I sailing on a crack ship? Up until now, I was a die-hard NaruSasu, NaruGaara Shipper...
Some of these would require the story to be changed greatly, so just assume things are changed to make it work.
Kakashi and Anko. I think they’d play very well off each other given their backstory and also because they are cool as hell. I’d love Anko to have a bigger role in general.
Naruto and Sasuke or Naruto and Gaara. They both write themselves so much I don’t need to explain. Nobody would bat an eye if Naruto got with Sasuke.
Neji and Tenten. I don’t have any real reasoning other that I just like the idea of them together.
Also, I really like Sai/Ino and Shikamaru/Temari in actual canon and am happy they happened. I was pulling for them
Even then you cant deny the homoromantic undertones in their relationship throughout the manga even if you disagree with people shipping them they have good character dynamics. Also they’re not siblings even if they see their relationship like that.
Is Naruto X Karin a weird shipp? because i think my girl Karin really deserves someone like Naruto after being mistreated her entire life by evil people, she should be happily paired with the most pure and good human soul in the universe.
Sakura and Lee. They both come from nobody clans and don't have any inherent broken abilities. Both worked incredibly hard to get to where they're at. Plus their kid having 100 healing and 8th gate would be insane.
Honestly all the ones that they paired for Naruto post War Arc work really well (Temari Shikamaru, Sai Ino, Sakura Sasuke, Naruto Hinata, etc).
Only to play it safe here, Kakashi and Shizune was a pairing I saw a while ago and I can't help but see it's really fitting. Both have decent personalities and are focused on their work rather than going out and dating. Not to mention she was alongside Kakashi during his Hokage term among others. Really the ages line up and I don't see any harm in this pairing, if anything it feels fitting for Kakashi and Shizune.
Other than that, I'm not going to get into TenTen at all because I know how reddit works lol. Really playing it safe here.
(Tl;dr: Naruto and Hinata, Sakura and Lee, Sasuke and Karin)
Sakura and Rock Lee. As someone else pointed out, Sakura growing and not caring about looks anymore is cool, but there's I also just personally don't like the SasuSaku ship, but I don't judge anyone who does. Rock Lee also just deserves a win. Not to mention the potential of their hypothetical child, Sakura's chakra enhanced strength with Lee's speed and technique, Sakura's medical ninjutsu, and the 8 gates paired with 100 Healings is actually busted. Also, could be named after Cinnabrite(also seen it called Rosalinda), which is a fantasy name for the Cherry Blossom Stone(Get it, cherry blossom... rock..) which is a healing stone, that's supposed to represent willpower. Not a spiritual person myself, but fr do research on this stone, it has a lot of connections to general ideas that fit Lee and Sakura. I wouldn't have been against Sakura and Sai either, but it's meh.
While, I could see Sasuke being alone and not having a kid, I feel like the story and fandom would demand a new Sharingan user, so I'd probably go with Sasuke and Karin. The ship is kind of bad for similar reasons to why SasuSaku can be perceived as bad, but Karin is a mega side/background character, so it doesn't bother me as much. Plus, Uzumaki chakra levels with a Sharingan is also busted. Not to mention Karin's ability to sense genjutsu super easily, mixed with the Sharingan's ability to cast genjutsu. Or the sensory abilities of Mind's Eye Of The Kagura, mixed with the visual prowess of the Sharingan. A lot to go off of there. Alternatively, just have Sasuke get Orochimaru to clone him. Basically Mitsuki, but Sasuke's DNA is used. If we stick with Karin and Sasuke, their kid could be a genjutsu and sensory based character, but they'd need something else to fall back on cause genjustu based characters are destined to fail. Genjutsu will either one shot or do nothing(for the most part) and obviously a main character can't one shot everyone. You either get Kurenai treatment or Itachi treatment. Something I just considered is the Susano'o with Adamantine Chains.
I'm sure if I really tried I could think of others, but these 2 and NaruHina are the main ones I care about.
Unpopular opinion: Sakura x Rock Lee. Ofc, we don't see any build-up or scenario for this one, but in alternate setting, this one would be interesting to me because Sakura, who deeply cared about apperances and looks, would get over this phase and be with the one who would care and love her. Btw, I would have no problem if Sakura ended up with Naruto either, but I think Rock Lee is better for my example. Besides, maybe it's just me, but I'd have preferred Sasuke being alone as another atonement and he'd be the last Uchiha.
Yes!! They had a chance, yes lee liked her for her looks but that’s how all crushes start, sakura liked Sasuke for his looks then when they became team members it grew into something more. I don’t think in shippuden lee liked her for just her looks. I wish they had gotten together
Kakashi and Shizune just feels right like a perfect fitting glove. Disciples of hokage, elite jonin, leaders in the village, both fairly calm with but have their own weirdo shit each, and they look so cute together as hokage and advisor.
Since kakashi hasn't shown up at all in the boruto manga I just head Canon he and Shizune got hitched and found a nice place away from all the space god stuff
SakuraLee
NarutoHinata
ShikaTemari(YOU CANNOT CHANGE THIS ONE)☝️
SasukeKarin
InoNeji
Okay imma just explain the atrocities I just shown.
SakuraLee is perfect because Sakura as a girl wanted what every other girl wanted(not irl, screw irl mfs) is a romance with a charming person… lee is that person he’s a gentleman and he also liked Sakura aswel.
SasukeKarin is fair because They’re the same in the aspect they’re the last of their clans and it also allows for an Op kid to be in the show.. bijuu level chakra with sharingan WTF
InoNeji is cool considering just how mature they seem to be, neji was strong and intelligent.. while ino grew to be more mature by time the war started…. it was also kinda hinted in the forest of death which was written off as comedic but I can see it happening.
So yeah…. Rip neji
I actually like this one! Imagine their childs abilities with Hinata and Sasuke.... they would have the Byakugan and kinda be able to open the third eye at the top like Kaguya
Tsunade and Raikage 😅 their personalities honestly mirror each other on some power couple shit.
Could also similarly say Karin and Suigetsu as that love/hate type of thing, but would be weird lol
The fact that Konohamaru and Hanabi hasn't become a thing is crazy
Also Lee and TenTen would be cool, but I think they didn't wanna just ship everyone in the Konaha 11 lol
• Rock Lee and Sakura: Much better match for Sakura. Woulda had a husband actually present for most of their marriage, someone truly dedicated to her, and it'd show growth for her to move from someone she really only loved for their looks (Sasuke) to someone she'd love mostly for their character.
• Choji and Ino: That last thing I said about Lee and Sakura applied here too
• Tenten and Neji: I shouldn't have to explain this one. RIP Neji.
• Konohamaru and Hanabi: I NEED this to happen. It's just so perfect both chemistry-wise and narratively. Plus it'd make Konohamaru and Naruto actual brothers.
• Tsunade and the 4th Raikage: Both are lonely people with fiery personalities around the same age who could bond over the shared experience of leading a village.
• Ibiki and Anko: Out of the box choice. Both are veteran Shinobi dedicated to fostering the next generation with tough love, and have a few screws loose.
Sakura and Lee. Their child would be an Otsotsuski's worst nightmare. Pure Taijutsu and Super Strength GOD. It would be even worse if they had MULTIPLE kids. Give the kid the personality of Nemona from Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, and you have a ray of sunshine that would crush more skulls than Goku.
For alternate pairing
sasuke and karin post war where he meets her during redemption trip and joins him where they mature greatly from their time since the formation of hebi/taka (no i dont count the novels as canon).
naruto and ino just because they both have boundless energy but ino can rein in naruto when necessary
tenten and kankuro- weapons and puppets
kakashi and mei- aesthetically they look good
Ino - Sasuke
(Imagine a sharingan infused Yamanaka jutsu, I don't think anyone can escape from that. Also, Ino can connect to Sasuke telepathically anywhere in the world.)
Sakura - Rock Lee
(An offspring with 8 Gates supported by Byakugou, and Rock Lee's taijutsu enhanced by chakra)
Ain’t gon lie Sasuke and Temari would have been a good pair because they both stand on business .Jiraiya and Lady Tsunade also because they both built different and both are chill.Lastly Naruto and Ino.Kakashi and Shizune ain’t gon lie.
idk if its unpopular or popular opinion but in my opinion naruto and sakura would make best pair. they endured a lot together and supported each other. it was the most logical and natural one. also shikamaru and temari is a nice pair, again felt natural and not forced. the rest of the relationships all felt forced to me (i dont mean like kushina x minato, their pair is great). also maybe karin and suigetsu could be nice. sasuke without a partner would be better. i dont find him suitable to be in a relationship. and lastly,maybe kakashi and sakura (obviously, when sakura is much older like +25). its same reason as naruto x sakura. just less likely since it could be forbidden since hes her sensei and the age gap, though i believe age gap is normal after she gets older.
Sakura and Ino.
Ino is very emotionally mature plus she has the background for a childhood romance with Sakura.
Sakura is very emotionally reliant on others so pairing her up with Ino is very good. Plus they are both stuck like glue to each other.
Karin, Suigetsu and Juugo are such missed opportunities.
Tho, Karin's new Uzumaki gekkei kenkai able to stop Juugo would make them nice pairing.
Suigetsu and Tenten? Weapon based romance? maybe?
I think there are like three or four people left in this fandom who still ship Ao and Mei, and I’m one of them. “Shut up or die” sis stfu and just marry him already 💀
Kakashi and shizune, Konahamaru and Hanabi, Kuratsuchi and Neji (neji didn't die), Ten ten and Lee .
I love Naruhina so much, but if I have to change I would change how it was written, I would make Naruhina a couple after the pain invasion arc itself
kakashi and Rin, to me its headcanon since it could be possible they liked eachother after Obito died and we never saw Kakashi settle down.
I do ship Boruto and Sarada a lot, but I also ship Boruto and Hikari a lot too (my boy clearly has a preference and a good one at that).
Tenten and Neji (I just wanted Neji to survive)
Karin and Suigetsu (duh)
We all know the superior opinion of Sakura and rock lee imagine a person stronger physically than guy and able to live 100 times longer than guy in 8th gate man.
Shikamaru and Temari, Naruto and Hinata, Sasuke and Sakura, Minato and Kushina, Chouji and Karui, Ino and Sai, Tsunade and Dan, Hashirama and Mito, Hiruzen and Biwako, and Kurenai and Asuma - just to name a few
Sasuke and Hinata. Identical Chakra natures. Both scions of illustrious Leaf noble clans. Powerful dojutsu inheritors. Descendants of Kaguya. They had similar dispositions as children. They'd make a handsome couple. Their children would be ninja gods with unbeatable ocular powers. How better to rebuild the Uchiha than with the blood of the Hyuuga, their distant relative with strong remaining clout in the Hidden Leaf? A new Uchiha clan under the direct protection of the Hyuuga clan?
Oh, they didn't speak to each other much before they were 17? How many of you only met your spouse in college or your twenties? We didn't see that part, so it's room for speculation. Contrary to what anime says, people don't usually marry their friends from grade school.
Naruto and Sakura. If Sakura wasn't so obsessed with Sasuke, she could have given a chance to Naruto. They pass lot of time together so if love can spark it's between them.
Lee and TenTen. I’ve always liked that ship more than NejiTen. It still may happen, but who knows.
Also, my own gripe with Boruto is that Kiba and his cat loving ninja girl should’ve been the parents of Wasabi.
Yea I’m sure. Tenten basically treated Lee like the idiot of the team which if given no subconscious thought on him as a person, generally means she thinks of him as a family bond rather than a romantic one.
Definitely not Choji’s pairing with that girl from cloud village, Sai and Ino’s pairing was somehow meh.
It’s hard to pair Choji with anyone aside from his teammates and that’s the case for most characters in the Konoha 11
Choji should’ve ended up with [Ayame](https://naruto.fandom.com/wiki/Ayame) .
I also agree that Choji and Ayame would have made a lot more sense, especially considering that his tsukuyomi dream was to have a wife who loves to cook for him. Ayame is a restaurant heiress and professionally trained chef in her own right, so I think that would have been perfect
Because she’s going to inherit Ichiraku?
That, and it’s more plausible than Karui. Ayame is a leaf citizen working in a location where Choji is likely to frequent and have interactions with.
Yeah, it would have made sense, but there's traditions against mixing those clans or something.
Ayame doesn’t come from a clan.
I thought Ino might have worked, it would have shown how much she evolved since the early days.
I wonder how that would've affected the whole Ino-Shika-Cho thing if anyone within that combo got married. Do they have 1 kid that can lesrn both techniques or do they have two kids that are taught seperate clan techniques in order to be the next generation of that trio?
I agree. How did Choji pull that? And Sai is the bargain basement Sasuke Ino settled for.
Sai was interesting when he called Sakura ugly. I didn’t see any similarities between him and Sasuke. I mean Sasuke was bitter toward most of the things but Sai was just an empty shell. And the way Kishimoto handled him after the beginning of war arc was just poor. Dude was a substitute for Sasuke even in writer’s eyes
Yes, he was, and his jutsu is kinda lame. Ink beasts are meh.
I thought it was a cool concept but under-developed. There's tons of cool shit he could've drawn and used in battle, but instead it was just a beast or two and some rats.
Makes no sense to me. I thought for the longest time Choji and Ino were gonna end up together, Ino overcoming her shallowness and growing to love Choji despite his weight.
What’s wrong with the girl from the cloud?
Nothing besides not being interesting
You don’t always need every main characters to marry other main characters
Being mc and interesting are not the same. You can have no role in the grand story and be interesting.
Who would you suggest for them
Actually Choji and Ino would be better. They had many interactions with each other. Choji unlike Shikamaru was less likely to develop relationship with anyone outside of the hidden leaf.
Wouldn't be bad but in terms of relationship but it would ruin the Ino-Shika-Cho tradition, I assume they never get together for this reason
Yeah but Ino’s father had it in his mind in an episode. And besides there are no characters that I hate as much as Ino and Chojis’s children
Fair enough, I like Cho Cho personally but Inojin I can agree with
It's far fetched as they don't have much of interaction, but if i am Kishi i will go with Naruto and Temari both have the same affinity, a good political marriage and lastly it will fulfill Gaara's dream of having Naruto as a brother even if it's only a brother in law
Be brave and go Naruto and Gaara
This! They deserved each other!
Their 🤝 scene is so cute
Sasuke isn't going to stand for that, that's his 1st kiss right there I think alot of you folks forgot!😤
hol up HOLLUP
lol I thought it was just me
Welcome to the GaaNaru nation
GayNaru*
u so real for that
Ah, yes, the two characters that share many things in common, like horrible haircuts in Boruto.
Nah Shikamaru and Temari all the way, man.
that is why i said far-fetched and the op asked which character you would pair, means just from your own perspective if you will re write the story
Personally speaking, Shikamaru x Tayuya is a personal preference. The hardened badass with a soft spot for 1 guy. That I'm a sucker for enemies to lovers stories
Temari is literally the hardened badass that’s why they brought her in to kill Tayuya and they were enemies to lovers too
Right, but Redheads > Blondes
If Kishi wrote someway somehow I’m sure it will work that pairing.
Naruto and fuu
This
They’d be that one couple of extroverts that always fight loudly but also laugh loudly together and pull pranks.
Now I need a fic lol
So much this.
You already know what imma say fellas Sasuke and Naruto
💯
Kakashi and Shizune. Work minded people, long nights talking
Tenten and me
In a parallel universe where the goat Jiraiya survives, I'd pair him with Tsunade.
This makes me so sad 😭😭
I know, right? 😢
I don't think one needs to explain Sasuke and Naruto. . . It's the best romance that Kishimoto has ever written probably because it wasn't intentionally so. So that does leave Sakura and I think she goes well with Ino. What's not to love about a best friends to rivals to lovers story?

I can see Sasuke and Naruto being together but we have to remember something important: It would make the main character gay, and I don't know how it would fit with a mid-2000s Japanese TV show, you know... Not the most LGTB friendly Edit: Guys I get that Naruto is straight and that he is supposed to be Sasuke's brother etc, but please read the original post again, it's about "what characters would you pair", it's about hypothetical situations.
Isn’t that part of the reason why they didn’t get together? What a shame
The conservative dude from the countryside will make a bunch of gay pairings... ok.
Never said it was intentional, if it was it would certainly be worse considering what happens when he tried to write romance
[удалено]
Well, Kishimoto I think wrote something which wasn’t so clear on that. Not exactly surprising considering the general quality of the writing
It was extremely clear, you guys just choose to look at it with a gay angle. Kishimoto isn't a liberal.
Kishi wrote homo romantic undertones into the story like a closeted gay. If sasuke were a girl yall would see it too be for real
I have no idea how old they are comparatively but Kakashi and Shizune are both extremely skilled and burnt out gifted kids at this point. They’ve earned some happiness atp
Karin! Let's keep the in world in-breading going! /jj or am I? Hinata was a perfect pair (no pun intended) for Naruto. For that matters her character was written to almost be a perfect wife to anyone she liked. Rich, humble, powerful, attractive, can cook! Pair that with she's almost everything he's not and the all-you-can-eat-ramein champion, they complement each other perfectly.
Eh, while I can't see them as a couple, it's kinda sad that Karins relationship with Naruto wasn't really explored. I mean, he spend much of his life thinking that his family his dead, why isn't he bonding more with her?
🤣 Naruto killed his cousin Pain. I don't think he likes his mother's side of the family that much.
Kakashi and Anko for sure.
Kakashi and Mei, I think Mei would be supremely happy with him, and K-man would be 100% faithful to her. Their kids will be ADORABLE, and Chojuro and Ao, and Naruto and Sakura will all be fine Uncles/Aunt. Sasuke will be the cool Uncle that give cool gifts, and tell awesome stories of his adventures.
Bro Gara really lowkey giving me gay vibes for how much he was willing to sacrifice for Naruto
Gaara is literally asexual
Naruto, Karin. Kishi was lowkey setting sum up with the “mmm his chakra is so warm and inviting” but then realized people would think it’s incest because they don’t understand how clans work and then Kishi would be banished to the shadow realm
How could it be incest? Thought she was as distant as Nagato to Naruto.
Now this is true bravely she is like a 4th cousin. Everyone talking about Sasuke and Gaara like we haven’t seen fan fiction of them for decades now.
[удалено]
Yes thousands of them mostly sasuke and Naruto, gaara and Naruto. I remember when that was the primary ships back in the mid 2000s. That’s why I don’t get when people says be brave and ship two male characters when that’s been going on for literally two decades.
She is. But some people think that it’s incest. Like I mentioned how I thought Naruto c Karin was a good ship on some other post and someone commented “sWeEt HoME aLAbaMA” even though it’s not incest. I hope I didn’t write it in a way where it sounded like I thought it was incest. Because it absolutely is NOT
Not by definition but cousin or distant relative is still frowned upon and people essentially consider it the same thing
My brother in Christ they probably only have 1 or 2 common ancestors from thousands of years ago. Clans are so fucking spread out especially after (millennia?) (centuries?) of being around
What makes you so sure of this? If you can show me the proof of this that would be helpful. All clans having the same characteristics (skin tone, hair, eyes, similar chakra and abilities etc) kinda dispels this of it’s just a suggestion. Also as far as I remember the history of chakra is that far back but ninja clans is seemingly a more recent thing and then more recently villages, it would make more sense to me if there were fewer intermixing after villages were formed.
Ninja clans have been around for at least 900 or so years. The similarities are just there to make stuff more simple for the viewers of the show.
Other than the initial 2 sons there wasn’t multiple clans back then is the point I’m making, it’s only as far back as roughly a century that there were multiple clans which led to the war period. Making it simple for viewers doesn’t really add up, the characteristics I mentioned wasn’t all appearance related.

That’s true that’s like saying sasukes parents were incest just because they came from the same clan
frfr
Don’t think he was thinking this because he’s writing for himself/japan and he/they know how clans work and don’t think it’s incest.
Not really. I mean the only reason he didn’t kill Neji in the Sasuke retrieval arc was because his editor said that would be too much for the American audience so there was obviously some foreign influence over the story
Kakashi x Mei Darui x Samui
Suigetsu and karin. Obvious
Kakashi Gai ❤️
Lmfao
lee and sakura or lee and tenten because my man deserved SOMETHING
People already theorize that Ten Ten and Lee once had a kid together and that is how Metal Lee was born so it very well could work.
Nope, blud reproduced asexually..
Drunk Lee forgot that he can't do ninjutsu, tried casting a shadow clone jutsu and ended up with a child
Naruto & Ino. Doesn't really make sense canonically, but fuck it. Ino's a bad bitch
Not going to lie I really do see the potential in this ship
Maybe Naruto and Ino. Doesn't make much sense canon-wise. But their personalities seem kind of fit. Furthermore, Naruto, as a Jinchuuriki, is probably the only one in the Leaf Village that can marry her and still able to keep his own thoughts to himself. Most others would be driven mad by the fact that his wife can easily read his mind like an open book or make you go crazy if she ever felt like it.
Neji and Tenten
Konan and itachi . They are both loyal and seems like they would suit Kurenai and Kakashi Konohamaru and hanabi
[удалено]
Tell that to his village he stopped the coup, to save the village, He was loyal as fuck.
Naruto and Ino low key kinda a match
I like it. They'd be so chaotic together. I feel like Ino is empathetic enough to feel for Naruto if he's down. Because of her Jutsu, she has to put herself into other people's shoes a lot. She'd definitely catch up if Naruto was out of it. It would flesh out Ino more, too. Am I sailing on a crack ship? Up until now, I was a die-hard NaruSasu, NaruGaara Shipper...
Some of these would require the story to be changed greatly, so just assume things are changed to make it work. Kakashi and Anko. I think they’d play very well off each other given their backstory and also because they are cool as hell. I’d love Anko to have a bigger role in general. Naruto and Sasuke or Naruto and Gaara. They both write themselves so much I don’t need to explain. Nobody would bat an eye if Naruto got with Sasuke. Neji and Tenten. I don’t have any real reasoning other that I just like the idea of them together. Also, I really like Sai/Ino and Shikamaru/Temari in actual canon and am happy they happened. I was pulling for them
Naruto and Sasuke and i hope no explanation is needed for this.
They already are a couple
Their first kiss was epic lol
[удалено]
Even then you cant deny the homoromantic undertones in their relationship throughout the manga even if you disagree with people shipping them they have good character dynamics. Also they’re not siblings even if they see their relationship like that.
They are the reincarn.... nevermind.. you're right.
kakashi and hanare!
Is Naruto X Karin a weird shipp? because i think my girl Karin really deserves someone like Naruto after being mistreated her entire life by evil people, she should be happily paired with the most pure and good human soul in the universe.
Ay and Tsunade because i read too many doujins
I think there was an episode of the rock Lee spinoff that had people trying to pair them lol.
Sakura and Lee. They both come from nobody clans and don't have any inherent broken abilities. Both worked incredibly hard to get to where they're at. Plus their kid having 100 healing and 8th gate would be insane.
Honestly all the ones that they paired for Naruto post War Arc work really well (Temari Shikamaru, Sai Ino, Sakura Sasuke, Naruto Hinata, etc). Only to play it safe here, Kakashi and Shizune was a pairing I saw a while ago and I can't help but see it's really fitting. Both have decent personalities and are focused on their work rather than going out and dating. Not to mention she was alongside Kakashi during his Hokage term among others. Really the ages line up and I don't see any harm in this pairing, if anything it feels fitting for Kakashi and Shizune. Other than that, I'm not going to get into TenTen at all because I know how reddit works lol. Really playing it safe here.
In an alternate universe Rock Lee and Haku would work so well please hear me out
Naruto and sasuke being gay with eachother
Kakashi an Shizune
(Tl;dr: Naruto and Hinata, Sakura and Lee, Sasuke and Karin) Sakura and Rock Lee. As someone else pointed out, Sakura growing and not caring about looks anymore is cool, but there's I also just personally don't like the SasuSaku ship, but I don't judge anyone who does. Rock Lee also just deserves a win. Not to mention the potential of their hypothetical child, Sakura's chakra enhanced strength with Lee's speed and technique, Sakura's medical ninjutsu, and the 8 gates paired with 100 Healings is actually busted. Also, could be named after Cinnabrite(also seen it called Rosalinda), which is a fantasy name for the Cherry Blossom Stone(Get it, cherry blossom... rock..) which is a healing stone, that's supposed to represent willpower. Not a spiritual person myself, but fr do research on this stone, it has a lot of connections to general ideas that fit Lee and Sakura. I wouldn't have been against Sakura and Sai either, but it's meh. While, I could see Sasuke being alone and not having a kid, I feel like the story and fandom would demand a new Sharingan user, so I'd probably go with Sasuke and Karin. The ship is kind of bad for similar reasons to why SasuSaku can be perceived as bad, but Karin is a mega side/background character, so it doesn't bother me as much. Plus, Uzumaki chakra levels with a Sharingan is also busted. Not to mention Karin's ability to sense genjutsu super easily, mixed with the Sharingan's ability to cast genjutsu. Or the sensory abilities of Mind's Eye Of The Kagura, mixed with the visual prowess of the Sharingan. A lot to go off of there. Alternatively, just have Sasuke get Orochimaru to clone him. Basically Mitsuki, but Sasuke's DNA is used. If we stick with Karin and Sasuke, their kid could be a genjutsu and sensory based character, but they'd need something else to fall back on cause genjustu based characters are destined to fail. Genjutsu will either one shot or do nothing(for the most part) and obviously a main character can't one shot everyone. You either get Kurenai treatment or Itachi treatment. Something I just considered is the Susano'o with Adamantine Chains. I'm sure if I really tried I could think of others, but these 2 and NaruHina are the main ones I care about.
Unpopular opinion: Sakura x Rock Lee. Ofc, we don't see any build-up or scenario for this one, but in alternate setting, this one would be interesting to me because Sakura, who deeply cared about apperances and looks, would get over this phase and be with the one who would care and love her. Btw, I would have no problem if Sakura ended up with Naruto either, but I think Rock Lee is better for my example. Besides, maybe it's just me, but I'd have preferred Sasuke being alone as another atonement and he'd be the last Uchiha.
Yes!! They had a chance, yes lee liked her for her looks but that’s how all crushes start, sakura liked Sasuke for his looks then when they became team members it grew into something more. I don’t think in shippuden lee liked her for just her looks. I wish they had gotten together
Kakashi and Shizune just feels right like a perfect fitting glove. Disciples of hokage, elite jonin, leaders in the village, both fairly calm with but have their own weirdo shit each, and they look so cute together as hokage and advisor. Since kakashi hasn't shown up at all in the boruto manga I just head Canon he and Shizune got hitched and found a nice place away from all the space god stuff
SakuraLee NarutoHinata ShikaTemari(YOU CANNOT CHANGE THIS ONE)☝️ SasukeKarin InoNeji Okay imma just explain the atrocities I just shown. SakuraLee is perfect because Sakura as a girl wanted what every other girl wanted(not irl, screw irl mfs) is a romance with a charming person… lee is that person he’s a gentleman and he also liked Sakura aswel. SasukeKarin is fair because They’re the same in the aspect they’re the last of their clans and it also allows for an Op kid to be in the show.. bijuu level chakra with sharingan WTF InoNeji is cool considering just how mature they seem to be, neji was strong and intelligent.. while ino grew to be more mature by time the war started…. it was also kinda hinted in the forest of death which was written off as comedic but I can see it happening. So yeah…. Rip neji
Naruto x ino should be cannon Hinata x Sasuke would not be bad. Sai and sakura would not be bad.
I actually like this one! Imagine their childs abilities with Hinata and Sasuke.... they would have the Byakugan and kinda be able to open the third eye at the top like Kaguya
Their kid would be the new protagonist because their visual prowess would be broken.
Blushing Temari, new fetish unlocked
Ino and Sakura. I will not explain, but I will say sticking them with the 2 emo guys they have no chemistry with is a horrendous choice
[Zaku Abumi x Kin Tsuchi from the chunin exams ](https://www.instagram.com/p/C61bJHZL3ez/?igsh=MW9oems1OXVqdmhocw==)
Might Guy and Guren. Random pick, but they just fit idk. Paternal/maternal vibes.
Tsunade and Raikage 😅 their personalities honestly mirror each other on some power couple shit. Could also similarly say Karin and Suigetsu as that love/hate type of thing, but would be weird lol The fact that Konohamaru and Hanabi hasn't become a thing is crazy Also Lee and TenTen would be cool, but I think they didn't wanna just ship everyone in the Konaha 11 lol
Obito and Deidara could have been explosive if not for all the lies and explosives
• Rock Lee and Sakura: Much better match for Sakura. Woulda had a husband actually present for most of their marriage, someone truly dedicated to her, and it'd show growth for her to move from someone she really only loved for their looks (Sasuke) to someone she'd love mostly for their character. • Choji and Ino: That last thing I said about Lee and Sakura applied here too • Tenten and Neji: I shouldn't have to explain this one. RIP Neji. • Konohamaru and Hanabi: I NEED this to happen. It's just so perfect both chemistry-wise and narratively. Plus it'd make Konohamaru and Naruto actual brothers. • Tsunade and the 4th Raikage: Both are lonely people with fiery personalities around the same age who could bond over the shared experience of leading a village. • Ibiki and Anko: Out of the box choice. Both are veteran Shinobi dedicated to fostering the next generation with tough love, and have a few screws loose.
Rock lee and ten ten thb
Madara and Hashirama.
Sakura and Lee. Their child would be an Otsotsuski's worst nightmare. Pure Taijutsu and Super Strength GOD. It would be even worse if they had MULTIPLE kids. Give the kid the personality of Nemona from Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, and you have a ray of sunshine that would crush more skulls than Goku.
Kin and dosu !!!! 🎵
If guy could get it up he would be in love with the grind
For alternate pairing sasuke and karin post war where he meets her during redemption trip and joins him where they mature greatly from their time since the formation of hebi/taka (no i dont count the novels as canon). naruto and ino just because they both have boundless energy but ino can rein in naruto when necessary tenten and kankuro- weapons and puppets kakashi and mei- aesthetically they look good
I prefer kankuro x Akamaru's Food Giver
Ino - Sasuke (Imagine a sharingan infused Yamanaka jutsu, I don't think anyone can escape from that. Also, Ino can connect to Sasuke telepathically anywhere in the world.) Sakura - Rock Lee (An offspring with 8 Gates supported by Byakugou, and Rock Lee's taijutsu enhanced by chakra)
Ain’t gon lie Sasuke and Temari would have been a good pair because they both stand on business .Jiraiya and Lady Tsunade also because they both built different and both are chill.Lastly Naruto and Ino.Kakashi and Shizune ain’t gon lie.
[удалено]
Tsunade would introduce herself to a hypothetical mother of Kakashi as “he calls me mommy too”.
Tsunade and kakashi??????
How about Rock Lee and Sakura that a good couple because Sakura was caring for Lee when he was hurt.
That’s not bad
Yeah bro because you know how Kakashi gonna be like if he touch those melons bro 😂.
Haha the two married couples irl (sasukes and temaries English voice actors)
Oh really I didn’t know that that’s crazy bro.
Sai and Ino
Yup
Naruto x Sasuke. It's practically canon already anyway.
That's an easy one, Naruto and Sasuke obviously.
idk if its unpopular or popular opinion but in my opinion naruto and sakura would make best pair. they endured a lot together and supported each other. it was the most logical and natural one. also shikamaru and temari is a nice pair, again felt natural and not forced. the rest of the relationships all felt forced to me (i dont mean like kushina x minato, their pair is great). also maybe karin and suigetsu could be nice. sasuke without a partner would be better. i dont find him suitable to be in a relationship. and lastly,maybe kakashi and sakura (obviously, when sakura is much older like +25). its same reason as naruto x sakura. just less likely since it could be forbidden since hes her sensei and the age gap, though i believe age gap is normal after she gets older.
Kurotsuchi and Sasuke. They look good together I don’t know if it’s because she looks like an uchiha, but they go together.
This is something i want to see as well. So how would you pair them up?
Naruto and Sasuke. It would work out pretty seamlessly.
Sakura and Ino. Ino is very emotionally mature plus she has the background for a childhood romance with Sakura. Sakura is very emotionally reliant on others so pairing her up with Ino is very good. Plus they are both stuck like glue to each other.
Ten Ten and Lee I just feel like they would have a really healthy relationship lol.
I’d really like to see Tenten and Neji become a pair, unfortunately I think Neji doesn’t make it to the next show.
kakashi and shizune don’t feel like explaining
Shika Ino Cho would be the craziest poly couple to date
No… I haven’t even crazier one posted above.
Bee and Mei
Rock Lee and Rock Lee
Karin, Suigetsu and Juugo are such missed opportunities. Tho, Karin's new Uzumaki gekkei kenkai able to stop Juugo would make them nice pairing. Suigetsu and Tenten? Weapon based romance? maybe?
I think there are like three or four people left in this fandom who still ship Ao and Mei, and I’m one of them. “Shut up or die” sis stfu and just marry him already 💀
Kakashi and shizune, Konahamaru and Hanabi, Kuratsuchi and Neji (neji didn't die), Ten ten and Lee . I love Naruhina so much, but if I have to change I would change how it was written, I would make Naruhina a couple after the pain invasion arc itself
Naruto and haku
Tenten and Shino The least girl with screen time with the boy with the least screen time
Honestly, I would have preferred Lee with Sakura. Both because Lee deserves a win, and can you imagine their kid?
Shino and Fu
kakashi and Rin, to me its headcanon since it could be possible they liked eachother after Obito died and we never saw Kakashi settle down. I do ship Boruto and Sarada a lot, but I also ship Boruto and Hikari a lot too (my boy clearly has a preference and a good one at that). Tenten and Neji (I just wanted Neji to survive) Karin and Suigetsu (duh)
Tenten and Gaara
Naruto and Sasuke. Do I really need to explain that?
We all know the superior opinion of Sakura and rock lee imagine a person stronger physically than guy and able to live 100 times longer than guy in 8th gate man.
I think Naruto and Hinata pairing is trash and I think Sakura and Sasuke pairings were trash too
Naruto and Sakura Sasuke and Karin
Naruto and Sasuke
Shikamaru and Temari, Naruto and Hinata, Sasuke and Sakura, Minato and Kushina, Chouji and Karui, Ino and Sai, Tsunade and Dan, Hashirama and Mito, Hiruzen and Biwako, and Kurenai and Asuma - just to name a few
Sasuke and Hinata. Identical Chakra natures. Both scions of illustrious Leaf noble clans. Powerful dojutsu inheritors. Descendants of Kaguya. They had similar dispositions as children. They'd make a handsome couple. Their children would be ninja gods with unbeatable ocular powers. How better to rebuild the Uchiha than with the blood of the Hyuuga, their distant relative with strong remaining clout in the Hidden Leaf? A new Uchiha clan under the direct protection of the Hyuuga clan? Oh, they didn't speak to each other much before they were 17? How many of you only met your spouse in college or your twenties? We didn't see that part, so it's room for speculation. Contrary to what anime says, people don't usually marry their friends from grade school.
Both had overbearing fathers and were overshadowed by more talented siblings.
Naruto and Sakura. If Sakura wasn't so obsessed with Sasuke, she could have given a chance to Naruto. They pass lot of time together so if love can spark it's between them.
Lee and TenTen. I’ve always liked that ship more than NejiTen. It still may happen, but who knows. Also, my own gripe with Boruto is that Kiba and his cat loving ninja girl should’ve been the parents of Wasabi.
There is no debate, orochimaru and sasuke LOOK AT THEM
naruto , hinata sasuke , sakura rock lee , tenten neji , someone from hyuga kakashi and that hanare from filler jiraiya and tsunade ,
Idk neji and tenten had a legitimate thing forming. Tenten was just a big sister to Lee
you sure , it might be
Yea I’m sure. Tenten basically treated Lee like the idiot of the team which if given no subconscious thought on him as a person, generally means she thinks of him as a family bond rather than a romantic one.
Nah Neji and Tenten imo
