A Letter from your favorite Sakura Hater... (Patreon)
Content
OK, I (Ron) have read the comments from ep 23/24, and also watched the next two episodes and have something to say. A lot of you are commenting on my thoughts of Sakura, but you all have the knowledge of who she becomes and what she accomplishes in the future. Like even just watching the next 2 episodes (we did last night) and looking back at this reaction, I can see I was underestimating her strength and competencies. And honestly I am both impressed and hyped at who she is becoming already! Just 2 episodes into the future!
My reactions are just how I feel with the info I have been given at that moment! I know its hard to remember exactly how you felt about her at this stage back when you watched for the very first time, but it FOR SURE wasn't the same way you feel about her now, knowing how the show finishes. Also try and keep in mind, we didn't watch fillers, so that also impacts my thoughts and knowledge of her training, character development etc. So it still will probably be different from how yours was. AND THAT IS OK!
I Love this communities passion and efforts to get me to see characters the same way you do, but I think if you let me develop my own evolution of how i feel about the characters through experiencing the show, it will be better for everyone! I am positive my thoughts about her will change. Who knows, she may become my favorite character, I have no idea! (I judged Rock Lee early on too, and he is now my favorite and I now have a tattoo of him. So anything can happen haha😂).
I know as humans you want me to feel and think the same as you do. Its natural. I am not perfect, and I know I wont feel EXACTLY how you guys all feel, but I am real. So hopefully you enjoy my growth and appreciation for her as the show goes on. Just like how I am sure each of you guys appreciated and grew with your feelings for her as you watched her progress throughout the show. Its a long journey! We are still just getting started. Excited to see who she becomes! Unless she dies before that happens of course...LOL
Love yall! Love this show.
