Within theNarutofranchise , Sakura Haruno never really live on up to her narrative potential , however , an alternate reality where her pa became the Fourth Hokage rise how she could have had a bigger purpose . While Sakura started out important , as the series ' traditional knowledge grew in scope , her plot relevancy quickly fade . route To Ninja : Naruto the Movie , however , shows how an early tweak to her design could have better utilized her potential .
The2013Narutomovie supply non - canonical " what if"takes on the backgrounds and characterizations of the casting ; in Sakura ’s case this led to some substantial alteration . While these could perhaps be attributed to the blank - ticket status of her design , it emphasizes Sakura ’s limited foundations .
With a lack of relevant or compelling backstory , Sakura had little way to affect the plot like Naruto or Sasuke could .
Sakura’s Father Could Have Been Hokage Material
The moving-picture show ’s premise is that Naruto and Sakura are immobilise in an illusion of an alternate history , where their parents swapped roles . As a result , Naruto gets the family he need while Sakura becomes an orphan after her father dies protecting the village as Fourth Hokage . It ’s aWonderful Life - esque plot , where the friend learn to revalue what they have in the genuine populace . However , the sight of Sakura ’s founding father , Kizashi , as Konoha ’s leader only serve as a monitor that , despite starting as a friend , she lacks strong narrative connections to her own taradiddle .
One of the largest letdowns about Sakura was her lack of relevance as the manga ’s cosmology expanded and centered on Naruto and Sasuke ’s heroic lineages . Even the junior-grade mold and their family tied into Konoha ’s being in some way , including Sakura ’s ex-wife - rival Ino , who at least has inherit a family technique . Sakura and her family , meanwhile , stay on conundrum , and never feel link up to the world of ninjas .

Sakura’s Lack of a Backstory Hurt Her Relevance to Naruto
While it may be an over - correction to claim that Kizashi should have been the Fourth Hokage , the idea of him being a potential prospect - along with its political complication - would have let Sakura continue visible in the write up . Besides giving her a foundation to keep her relevant in fight scene , it would have been a unique backstory , unreliant on elaborated clan histories . That a film was capable to dream this plot of Sakura ’s pa as Fourth Hokage up only highlights a common unfavorable judgment withNaruto , if not shonen as a whole , about how its women seem to be more as makeweight : acknowledged , but unnoticed .
