Shit writing.

Unironically the only realistic character in these series

Every Genjutsu specialist is designated jobber tier when Itachi exists.
This.

I think we’re had something to do with the theme of the pattern repeating itself. Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura were all where Jiraya, Orochimaru, and Tsunade were when they were at their stage. And each one of them is in danger of repeating the cycle.

>no sharingan
>small chakra pool
she's shit bud

I remember heavily banking on her eventually created Genjutsu revolving around her inner mental self.

Because she is like if you took the smartest kid in the classroom and placed him in a group of the smartest kids in each country
Sasuke worded it perfectly during the first fight in that faggot valley I forgot the name of, he told naruto "you are not as special as I"

Kishi wasn't creative enough to make any genjutsu that wasn't just tsukiyomi.

Because its a Jap manga.
Bleach do the same, as do a lot of series.

Water is wet, the sky is blue, and Jap tends to write really weak female characters once they outstay their awesome/attractive introduction.

Sakura is possibly the most realistic depiction of a woman in any anime ever.

Kishi clearly regretted making genjutsu a thing. You draw a fight but then it 'didn't really happen' so the readers see it as filler. Having Kurenai job when she should have the genjutsu equivalent of Guy's taijutsu was the clearest sign that he wanted to drop it.

the only reason Naruto and sasuke had a harder time learning chakra control was because they both had vastly more chakra than she did.

There's also the sound genjutsu that can be made when a flute is played tho.

what the fuck is happening here?

...

Sasuke had trouble with anything because he was distracted by Itachi being infinitely stronger than him.

>Kurenai

Who did she fight other than Itachi? You can't use anything against Itachi let alone genjutsu where his sharingan instantly sees through and counters.

It's because she's not his character. Despite all the other great changes, the editor forcing Sakura on Kishi was a huge mistake and no one knows what to do with her. So by end when the editor had left, Kishi just dumped her on Sasuke.

I'm saying that he took someone who could have defeated many other high tier ninja but gave her the worst matchup just to downgrade the expectations of non-Uchiha genjutsu in general.

Because.

>Who did she fight other than Itachi?
She jobbed to literal whos in some fillers and that's about it.

Someone's gotta heal the fodder. Kankaro can't regenerate.

I hate Sakura as much as the next guy but she apparently saved a ton of people during the war.

in a series of cooler combat medics (kabuto) and cooler ninjas in general (literally everyone else), sitting still while the hands glow green or slugs slither on people does not make for an exciting visual experience. this is also why tsunade is the least interesting sannin.

Because genjutsu is too OP when it actually works, and it doesn't make for an exciting fight when your enemy is just trapped in an illusion and you just beat them down while they're standing still.

But they punch like REALLY REALLY hard. That's enough to make them interesting.

Not when Gai exists..

Yeh but he doesn't matter since he has no connection to the 3 main characters thus everything he does is useless.
