Love that they are butting heads. Both of them come of as quite head strong but Sasuke gives in.
Also Sakura‘s smirk on the next Panel gives me vibes that she always wins their fights/ brings Sasuke to give in (as Sugiyama has joked before). I mean she managed to stay with him during her whole pregnancy and gave birth at one of Orochimaru’s hideouts.
Next her „sigh“ makes me believe Sasuke tends to be protective of her. We know that as we have all seen the FOD scenes of them. And also her shyly looking away and Sasuke still glaring at Jiji.
Sasuke and Sakura‘s interactions pretty much reminded me of their Genin Days. Kimura has captured Salura very well! She looks like Kishimoto‘s adult version and also her mannerisms are the same !!!
Every time I think I left SasuSaku and the Naruto universe behind… these two capture me again! I love that Kimura captures Sasuke and Sakura the way we know them. I pretty much like the art style, their facial expressions and mannerisms! I got Genin Sasusaku vibes all over the panels and I think it’s a good sign. Naruto Gaiden was from Sarada‘s perspective and they appeared mature but quite distant. In this chapter I get their typical Sasusaku vibes! (These dorks!)

Sasuke Retsuden issue 5 had Sasuke and Sakura do more ninja things together as they came closer to figuring out what’s Zanzul’s been up to at the Tartar Observatory.

in which Tsuyoshi confirms himself to be that friend™…
…that ends up stealing your partner
…or just forces their way into making your relationship poly 😇
context: Iijima Naoko is playing an equivalent of “Fuck, Marry, Kill” but its (from left) “Marry, Lover, Best Friend, Brother/Sibling, Second Cousin(? iirc)”
She’s just assigned Tsuyoshi as her best friend to his delight; then makes Takuya her lover/boyfriend because she thinks he’ll take her places or smth (yeah, i bet 😏 sorry)
Tsuyoshi thinks that’s really cool and then says he wants Takuya to be his boyfriend too and kisses him on the cheek
unfortunately Takuya’s brain takes an early vacation, leaving him vulnerable to donguri harassment
Happy 33rd anniversary, SMAP!!! In honor of the anniversary, I've translated and subbed the behind the scenes for the 2014 Mr. S concert tour! Disclaimer: there were parts where I really struggled to be able to hear what was being said, so I took my best guess and the results may not be 100% accurate, so if there are parts that are confusing or seem a little awkward, that's probably why!
The full video and subs can be found here! Enjoy!!!
