streeeeeeetch time 💞 かわいい!!
Ya know...when I rewatched the show/ re read the manga... I honestly felt like Hachi was the one using Takumi, even more so than he was using her. I think he fell long before she did , where as while he is her soulmate and she does love him, I don't think she ever fell for him. That is to say, I don't think she went gaga for him (for lack of a better word). Meanwhile he clearly fell for her. This is why he tried /tries so hard to dominate her at times and cheats and plays hot and cold. It's almost like his way of trying to keep the upper hand, which he has had in all of his relationships , even over Hachi at one point....but clearly, as things stand now....that didn't last
Despite everything, I still can’t imagine Hachi with anyone but Takumi. He’s scummy, I know, and she deserves someone who doesn’t cheat, I know; but I can’t shake the fact that he’s really fiercely in love with her— even if it’s in more of a possessive, obsessive manner. And that frightens me for my future relationships— what if it’s no good, and everyone can see if except for me?
Who is they? What is being pinned on narusaku fans? Your response is irrelevant to the content of my post. All I pointed out was flawed logic. I don't care if it came from naruhina, narusaku, or Einstein. Google search results do not establish pairing popularity. I'm not rude. I'm not nasty. I do not troll. Facts are just facts.

Excuse me for what? I didn't call you a bad guy. I didn't even mention you other than to say no disrespect. . All I said was this method is inaccurate. I don't care who came up with it. It's stupid(the method. Not whoever came up with it). The end.

(Sorry I wanted to post this separately too so it didn’t get lost as just a reblog because this really bothers my inner nerd.)
Time out guys. No disrespect to the OP or anyone, but this technique is really stupid(I’m sorry, it is).
I don’t care about pairing popularity. I ship what I like and that’s it, HOWEVER, Searching “Naruto and Sakura” or “Naruto and Sasuke” or “Naruto x Hinata” does ZERO to prove the popularity of a pairing , as ⚡️way more than 75% of the results ⭐️will not⭐️ be pairing related⚡️.(Especially considering a large portion of the fandom is not into pairings! )
Like really guys… I’m not saying this in a, “pairing wars” way but in a, “I used to work as an online researcher” way . Naruto is not just a character in a manga , Naruto IS a manga. Naruto is a tv show. Naruto is a movie series. Naruto is a food…Etc etc… When you are searching these terms that means you are combing the web for all pages that combine these terms.
That can mean, Sasuke vs Naruto discussions or Hinata as a character on Naruto. Hell! It can mean some boy named Hinata who posts about Naruto. When you search Naruto x Sakura or any pairing, you are not only searching that couple, your results include every anti pairing post, every Sakura character blog, or discussion. They include every result of Sakura as a character on Naruto.
Plugging in names in Google, even with an “X” between them, is so convoluted in proving anything , it’s a waste. So I’ll end this here: however you guys want to prove pairing popularity, find an accurate way of doing it , cause this ain’t it.

Okay Christopher Palu...
All that talent can’t be natural. We know who you work for….
Papa in law
I am by no means presenting this as solid or legitimate proof but this scene is what really makes me believe that Naruto , off panel , has already answered Hinata’s Confession. I know there is NOTHING tell tale here but I remember studying implicit exposition and character interaction in play writing , and from Hiashi’s lecture, to Naruto’s annoyed response , there is definitely a sense of familiarity between the two… Not proof, just my two cents…
I'm sorry but what chapter is when naruto said: is she watching me? cuuute :3
Hiya! Chapter 105 - The Great Fight!
post/68503547351/did-you-ever-notice <--I think you should point out that those are Sakura's thoughts in that first panel or clarify what you mean about paying attention to only Naruto's thoughts. Just a suggestion. ;)
Done and Done ^__~ TY <3
Did you ever notice....
Did you ever notice Naruto is blowing kisses….
And thinking of a certain someone…
So if you ignore everyone’s thoughts (including Sakura's in the kiss blowing panel ) but Naruto’s….
Dem early seeds….
that's like saying you lost a few pounds because you took a dump <3 let that shit go with pride! NH for da win!!
I think I lost a follower because I reblogged NaruHina
I like your fan fiction "Confessing is the Easy Part." It's quite beautiful. Are you by chance going to continue it or...?
Yes! I actually have the next chapter written, it's been written , but I need to edit it. I had quit my job when I started it, and had tons of time to write . Then, I went back to school , then my friend got me a full time job, then I started suing my old job, and I have some personal writing stuff I'm working on for professional submissions so my life is on 10 right now. In mid December it will calm down when school ends, and I'm honestly going to try to finish all my old fiction <3 Ty and I'm sincerely sorry. I've done this so much with writing. :/
I didn’t love Seiya but why do I feel the need to write another , “In Defense Of…” post -___-
It’s disgusting how many fans want to excuse Seiya. Seiya did not cut his unacceptable behavior out, and wouldn’t take a hint that Usagi didn’t want him. If Sailor Moon weren’t a childrens’ series, he’d be a rapist with that type of behavior. Is this a character you want to defend?

I made this last night watching SNL. I did it on my mum's pc cause my mac has long been dead, but this song is so NaruHina I had to get this vid out!! Every time I bump it in my car it's all I think about. I had limited clips so it's not too amazing, but I hope you enjoy! And totally buy Namie's album, "Feel". It's amazing! This song is "La La La"

You're Invited...
Let us Begin:
Dearly Beloved,
We are gathered here today before God,
our families,
and friends
to share in the marriage of
and
Who brings this bride to be married today?
It is said that none can be an island isolated without need of community with others.
We rejoice in the realization that we are most alive when we wholeheartedly embrace the gifts given us,
especially the gift of love in all the ways that gift is bestowed.
It has been said that through others, we are complete. Through marriage, we broaden our circle of family and friends and recall those who gave us life.
It is in this spirit of remembrance that Naruto and Hinata light a memorial candle, for loved ones who are no longer among us…
Today is the public affirmation and acknowledgment of all that you are to each other.
May that power bring you all the warmth and closeness, security and comfort, joy and happiness that this world has to offer.
Love is patient,
love is kind
It does not envy,
it does not boast, it is not proud
Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.
It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
It is not rude nor selfish
Love never fails
The Exchanging of the Vows Do you Naruto, take Hinata to be your lawfully wedded wife? Do you vow to love her and care for her for as long as you both shall live? Do you accept her, with all of her faults and strengths, and offer yourself to her with all of your own faults and strengths? Do you promise to be a faithful and loving companion and to always put the promises you make this day above all else?;
Do you, Hinata, take Naruto to be your lawfully wedded husband? Do you vow to love him and care for him for as long as you both shall live? Do you accept him, with all of his faults and strengths, and offer yourself to him with all of your own faults and strengths? Do you promise to be a faithful and loving companion and to always put the promises you make this day above all else?
Now that Naruto and Hinata have pledged themselves to each other by solemn vows with the joining of hands
and the giving and receiving of rings,
by the authority vested in me announce to you that they are husband and wife, a new family, and life’s partners in the name of God beyond us, God within us, and God between us.
Those whom God has joined together, let no one put asunder.
Ladies and gentlemen, friends, family, loved ones; it is with great pleasure that I now present to you for the first time, Mr. and Mrs…
You may now kiss the bride
We’re waiting Kishi
(I originally started this as an essay on how much this scene was symbolic of marriage but thought copying the ceremony worked just as well! A lot of images to add and fix but you get it!!(I hope ^___^ and I’ll keep adding and editing )
Hey hey hey...

Yet when he arrives… He’s still towled up…

In Defense of Diamond - In Defense of the Prince
Hey yo, Tumblr, Ima let you finish, but prince diamond was the most believable villain in all of sailor moon, and potentially one of the best villains in anime- period.
Rant mode initiated.
DISCLAIMER
First off, let’s kick this off by saying Diamond in the manga and Diamond in the anime are two very different characters. While both had legit motivations, manga D is presented as a much colder character than Anime Diamond. In youth I read all the manga and watched all the episodes in both English and Japanese but I am most familiar with the anime, and that is certainly reflected in this rant. Sorry!
Also, a point I want to 100 percent drive home that forcing yourself on another person is disgusting - no justification, no excuses.
DISCLAIMER
Alright, let’s go!
A lot of the hate I see directed at our white prince pertains to the notion that he is a pedophile and or a pervert.
Initially, Prince Diamond fell in love/obsession with Neo queen serenity- a centuries old “goddess”. When presented with the opportunity to, “claim?” (eek!) her as teenage Usagi, he bit. As mentioned above his behavior of kidnapping, possibly undressing her(we don’t know if he did it himself but yea he probably did) , and in the manga-verse kissing her and in the anime verse almost kissing her, no matter the age, yes , the force involved in all of it, is disgusting.
But is Diamond a pervert or a pedophile? I don’t think so.
How old is Usagi? My memory as a Moonie since youth leads me to believe that she is roughly 14 years old in the R series? Possibly 15. Too Young. However you can’t fault Diamond as a pedophile and not apply the same term to Darien. Darien is roughly the same age as Diamond if not a year older. Diamond is stated to be 18, and Darien is stated to be 18/19. Darien kisses Serena at 14. I’m rusty with the series but I recall there being jokes about making out (in the anime at least). I recall a scene in the R movie where Darien painstakingly investigates a flower shop so nobody sees him kiss Serena in public. I recall an episode of the dub where Serena’s dad flipped out because Darien was way too old for her. Bam. Not excusing the age inappropriateness but just saying if Diamond is a pedo-prince, so is Darien. You can’t jeer one and cheer the other
But OG- Serena, yes I can! Because Darien’s relationship with Serena is consensual!
Touché! But a pedo-prince is a pedo prince is a pedo prince is a pervert.
But OG Serena, Mamoru and Usagi were together in their past lives, when they both were of age.
Maybe! But I bring this point up as a strange crook in this situation. Again the question comes into play:
How old is Serena/Usagi. 14.
How old in Serenity…. Yipes. We don’t know. Centuries old? 19 ? It’s a tough call.
When you think about her age as 14, both Darien and Diamond are certifiably “creepy”.
I don’t like to bring conjecture into rants like this, but we can assume from King Endymion’s history , that since Serenity rules 30th century Crystal Tokyo post a deep earth freeze, that she has eternal life, or longevity that far exceeds your typical human (in fact I think in the manga this is addressed directly. Wasn’t there something about Rini being super old, but forever trapped in a child’s body? Sorry guys I’m so rusty. ) This then, leads me to believe that Diamond has probably regarded her(Serenity) not as a human being, but rather a literal, ageless, goddess.
To call someone a pedophile is to insinuate that they feel sexual attraction to children. In the case of Diamond, and Darien as well(although Darien did express attraction to her before he knew anything about her) it’s not the child Usagi that they are attracted to. In Darien’s case he is in love with his love from a past life , and in Diamonds case he is in love with an ageless entity from the future.
The psychology of a pedophile plays little role here.

So what’s so bad about shipping Demando x Usagi?
Let me start by explaining why I at least loved/LOVE this pairing. I was like maybe 10 or 11 when these episodes aired, so maybe it shows what a twisted individual I was even back then, but I always wanted Serena or rather Serenity to end up with Demando. Here’s why:
Darien. Treated. Serena. Like. Shit.
ESPECIALLY in the R arc in the anime. (Manga Mamoru was much nicer)
Oh Serena, I’m having these crazy nightmares about you getting hurt if we stay together… Let’s break up.
Seriously, if you love someone, and have loved them, lifetime after lifetime …
If you love someone and have gone to hell and back, LITERALLY, for them… and they have done the same for you….
A few bad dreams are going to make you break up with them?
Even as a kid I couldn’t buy it. It was the R arc that made me really start to dislike Serena x Darien as a couple. If someone is your soul mate and the love of your life, right from jump, you should sit this person down and talk to them about what is going on.
“Hey babe, I’ve been having these crazy dreams where the Earth crumbles from under you and you disappear in a sea of white.
But Darien, isn’t that an orgasm?” XD I digress.
Um but, yea, you talk it out with a person. If the trust between Usagi and Mamoru was genuine - then honesty certainly would have been the best policy. I don’t care how much you love a person - you don’t hurt them to “protect” them unless they’re a drug addict. That entire arc, we watch as Darien plays hot and very cold with poor Usagi over something he easily could have explained with words.
"Hey babe. Love you a lot but until we figure out what’s going on, let’s spend some time apart.
"No Darien I love you! I’m not going anywhere!
"Love you too, but I’m locking my door now. Kay Thnx Bye. "
Or how about
"Serena, I’m having these nutso dreams where this voice is telling me to stay away from you so you don’t get hurt…so you know what. I’m going to keep you even closer to me to make sure that doesn’t happen."
I mean for the second half of the season that’s basically what happened, so why couldn’t he have done that from the start?
It’s stupid and illogical.
After all, if a few bad dreams were all it took to get Darien to drop Serena, maybe Diamond should have diverted to that tactic himself.
AND FURTHERmore!!! When has it ever been okay to test someone’s love?!
In fact, testing someone’s love is one of the worst things you can EVER do in a relationship. It shows a major lack of trust. It’s insulting to your partner, manipulative, and shows that you yourself cannot be trusted.
So why the King would take such a course of action in the first place is hella sketchy.
He explains his reasoning saying, 'the overlords of the Negaverse will try to turn you against each other' and he needed to test their trust.
So anyway, after like what, 14… 15 episodes of watching Darien treat Serena like crap, they get back together and then in comes this wicked sexy prince. He’s got that bishi swag, wine glass in hand, laid back, legs crossed on that hideous blue/green throne…
Now, I’ve already listed the ways in which Diamond behaved awfully (kidnapping, forceful kissing, creepy comments) but his obsession with Serenity was well juxtaposed against Darien’s season of assholetry.
Yes he was creeptastic and intense… or sexy and passionate (sorry my fan girl slipped out) but after seeing the door slammed in Serena’s face, seeing the girl abandoned in the grocery store, seeing her played by Darien when Andrew’s sister was on his motorcycle… ugh, the list goes on… it was interesting to see someone who actually gave two shits about Usagi , verses claiming to love her while continuously mistreating her. .
But OG Serena-Chan, Diamond did not Love* Serena, he simply was obsessed with Neo Queen Serenity. She was an obstacle for him to conquer.
To some degree yes and totally. However what is really dynamic, and maybe this only applies to the anime, is that by the end , that fool loved her because he died for her. And he did not die for Neo Queen Serenity. He died for Usagi/Serena. He didn’t know her? Well he went on about her big heart and kind soul. He talked about wishing to learn from her. He watched her like a Big Brother After Dark episode so he probably knew a lil more about her than we see. I mean…You can 100 percent debate if it was love, but his, “sorry I lied” and his ultimate sacrifice…. seems legit.
Now, for those who say this is a bullshit rant and have already begun searching my Tumblr for pictures of crack pipes and bath salts, call off your dogs! The Negamoon family was influenced and effected by the dark crystal. We know with Emerald, it boosted her jealousy. We know with Wicked Lady, it encouraged her hate. Is it such a stretch to assume with Demando, it ramped up his need for power and control? So much to the point of having him kidnap and I don’t know try to forcefully kiss someone?
Bullshit you say? Still inexcusable.
Any character who would raise his hand to another woman is just as unforgivable, whether under the influence of “negative” energy or not?
Got it.
——-
Now let’s get to my most outrageous claim.
That Prince Diamond/ Demando is one of the most intriguing character in all of Anime. He is. Here’s why (and I think Naoko Takeuchi did this on purpose)
The story we get about the Black Moon family is so Orwellian, it’s unreal. Since these people refused “cleansing” they were banished to a “planet”, called nemesis (dude did you guys flip your shit when they discovered Eris(cough Nemesis) in 2005???) as far as far can get from the Sun.
This is why I love this arc. That story alone is so open to interpretation. Imagine some cult or some Aliens from the moon take over Earth and the leader comes to you and says, hey you, if you want live here, you need to let us…. cleanse you.
UMMMM…..
So many other stories and anime’s come to mind (1984, Naruto, Berserk, Elfen Lied, Ghost in the Shell, Stepford Wives ) but the one that stands out most in my mind in relation to this issue is a little anime called Psycho-pass.
I won’t spoil anything, but the villain’s motivations in that show are really an embodiment of the Nemsisian people’s plight. When you find out why that person is doing what they are doing… they become a very empathetic character. While you may not agree with his methods, you could talk for hours about the moral ambiguity of the situation at hand.
In relation to Sailor moon, who are Neo Queen Serenity and King Endymion and or the Scouts to determine that people need “cleansing” from the silver crystal? That is a part of this story that I NEVER liked. It’s almost like getting some kind of care bear lobotomy. A wave of the wand and you’re all light and goodness?
No.
What makes humans , human are our hearts and our minds and all the good and bad things that come along with them. This notion that people who refuse “cleansing” are banished to another planet is crazy. It’s so Stalin. It’s so Putin. It’s so Mao. It’s so Hitler. It’s so cult. It’s so disturbing! (I don’t say this to minimize these dictators’ evil, but to express that the notion of, “be cleanse or GTFO” is a totalitarian tactic. so no offense intended everyone)
I think this is why people like or rather love the Negamoon family or hate them. Most fans I know are pretty polarized on the issue. They stand for humanity. They stand for purity, and not in the way Serena does. They are REAL, as in real characters, with real flaws and passions. Demando is love struck and power hungry to the point of delusion. Emerald is love struck, insecure and jealous to the point of conceit. Saffir is brilliant but throws his infinite wisdom aside due to love for his brother. Rubeus is a master manipulator out to prove himself. They aren’t heroes but they are human* and that’s what makes for a great story.
The Black Moon family isn’t just out to take over Earth because they are “evil” . It was at one time their home. Simply because they rebelled against the powers at be they were sent away; punished for wishing to remain pure. There is duality in their story. I feel like you can relate and get behind their cause, especially with so many plot gaps left between the present and the future storyline.
They are “villains” you can get behind.
Rebels.
Underdogs.
Outlaws…

Why I ship Usagi x Diamond?
Innocence vs. Corruption This theme is one of the most common and classic pairing in Literature. From the moment we meant Diamond he was virtually dripping with sex. He is lusty and suave, classy and a (dastardly) gentleman.
He has that whole vampire allure about him. While we can’t assume anything I imagine he doesn’t typically have to force himself on any chicks, cause he doesn’t have to! Prince Diamond is a powerful dangerous dude, with a serious hard on for Usagi. There is allure in dangerous men. Point blank. period.
In addition to the Innocence vs Corruption thing, they’re actual personalities would be a blast to write/read in fanficton and imagine. It’s a fic I’ve always meant to write, but if I don’t finish the Naruto fanfics I’ve started , the entire fandom might kill me. Imagine Diamond actually getting to know the real Serena vs Serenity. She is brash, unpolished, unrefined ; everything her future self is not. There is a plot of gold there.
Then there’s the whole her positive influence on him… teaching him about life and love etc. It’s cute.
There is the underlying hate/ tension of her being Serenity.
There are a billion reasons to ship the two!
In summary, Prince Diamond did some awful things while under the influence of Wiseman and the Dark Crystal. Would he have done the same without being under than influence we don’t know. I can understand and respect anyone thinking him awful or a horrible character, but it’s just bad decorum to go around hating on anyone’s fandom. However, everyone does have the right to say wtf they want. Darien did some messed up shit too under the influence of negative energy, and I don’t see him getting half the hate Diamond gets.
So I say in defense of the prince, chill the fuck out peeps. It’s not so unfathomable that people like Prince Diamond…
whew….
