Sakura, ilu.
Also, I would have never guessed that in a chapter that did Sakura/Sasuke right, they would also give major hints at my other two OTPs. It's like Kishimoto is actually writing well. Weird.

But you are right in being cautiously optimistic about this. As we all might wish that Sakura will break Sasuke's face, it is entirely possible someone - anyone - will stop her in the last second, like Yamato has done way back.
On the other hand - I wonder if Kishimoto did this very deliberately so Sasuke wouldn't been able to know just how well she has improved over the past four or five years, and it'll become a major shock to him. I mean, he knows that Naruto should at least be at his level, considering they have been in the past . . .
But that might be giving Kishimoto too much credit.
I've read a comment somewhere that Sakura's decision echoes what Itachi has said: that ninja has to make hard decisions to do what is necessary for the well-being for everyone, and how Sakura's sacrifice is similar to Itachi's sacrifice as well. Very interesting.

I know! It totally pinged my shipper sense too!
I got a indescribably weird vide when Kakashi just figured it all out and just stated it. Maybe it's just my shipping goggles going on default-high and makes me go to the conclusion that Kakashi knows Sakura well enough that she'll might do this.
Sadly, it is all to possible that there is a cockblock going or Sakura is going to wimp out at the last second.

That is a good point. And I heard someone else mention that this is showing that Sakura is able and willing to make the hard, adult choices that Naruto isn't.
