Before I reread for the first time in a decade and probably ruin my version of these characters, here’s how I have chosen to see them:
• Sakura’s like, ripped. To me she has punching no jutsu and is ready to throw straight hands at all times. She also outgrows her crush on Sasuke and learns to love him and Naruto as her brothers, who wear her out with all their pining. One of the more balanced characters by the end who puts in a lot of hard work and has a lot of stamina chakra-wise, even if she doesn’t use it for strong attacks most of the time, choosing to use her chakra for healing and her hands for fighting.
• Sai’s funny as hell. Idc what anyone says I love him, and iirc he kind of hates Sasuke. I see him as a bit of a bitch
• Kiba! A character who my brother says only takes Ls but that’s okay, he’s good at tracking and has rugged lower status-charm. I also like his dog traits and have probably played them up in my mind. I also can’t remember if this is canon but I think he’s really in love with Hinata and have been for ages, but is a champ about it who doesn’t take it out on her and wishes her the best. Selfless and loyal in that regard. Doesn’t marry because Hinata might be the love of his life and she’s canonically not for him (even if I think her marriage to Naruto is a bit… Idk. That man’s in love with Sasuke). I’m probably playing it up a bit here for the sake of my high school ship but whatever
• Hinata has a lot of sexual fantasies and I also feel like she reads yaoi. And yuri probably
• Temari keeps Shikamaru in line and he’s careful not to upset her because it’s a hassle to deal with. She probably also rides him because it’s less work for him and she likes to keep him in his place
• Sasuke is a lot less annoying in my mind. He’s also right about a lot of things (or I can see where he’s coming from at least)
• Tsunade wins most of her fights and is a BAMF.
• Naruto has a better haircut by the end.
There are definitely more characters that I have specific feelings about but for now all I’ve got are these ones. Let me know if you have opposing ideas even if you probably won’t change my mind
