** The trails of blood of the wounds are mixing together, with Naruto and Sasuke in such position that it is like they are holding hands. [[labelnote:*]]That one's actually intended, as it looks like they're making the Unison Sign, which is a sing that's made before a battle meaning it's a friendly battle or something like that: 1. it is explained in the same episode (or one before); 2. they're lying atop the destroyed remains of Hashirama and Madara's statues' hands, which also end up making the Unison sign; 3. "The Unison Sign" is the name of the episode.[[/labelnote]]

*** It doesn't help than whenever he talks about Hashirama, he will always use the term ''akogare'' to define how he feels about him (''akogare'', while usually denoting deep respect, has already become a staple of the GirlsLove genre), despite always [[TheOnlyOneAllowedToDefeatYou following up how much he HATES him]]. Though when you think about it, [[FoeYay it does make it worse]].

Though when you think about it, [[FoeYay it does make it worse]]. Plus, with the way he goes on about how everyone else sucks compared to Hashirama, he comes across like a fanatical, obsessive lover.
*** Madara's epic GameFace when he first senses Hashirama's chakra looks ''[[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything very]]'' [[TheImmodestOrgasm unsettling]]. This is a man who loves battle, but even his reaction to the prospect of fighting doesn't match the intensity of his reaction to Hashirama. True, it could be because Hashirama is the only one he can really fight on equal footing... Which just lends ''more'' fuel to the fire.
*** Plus his shy bladder. He says that he has it around anyone, but we only see him reacting this way when ''Hashirama'' is standing behind him.

* Hidan and [[{{Tsundere}} Kakuzu]]. Their bickering is full of this...
-->'''Kakuzu''': That scar on your neck is embarrassing. Cover it up.\\
'''Hidan''': Hey, look at that; it's my headband! You went to the trouble of picking it up and keeping it for me? I'm touched. You're a pretty nice guy, Kakuzu, you know that?\\
'''Kakuzu''': Shut up! Come on, let's go.\\
'''Hidan''': Hey! Wait up! Let me put it on at least! Come on, admit it. You like me a little, dont'cha?\\
'''Kakuzu''': Either you shut up or I'll kill you.\\
'''Hidan''': You're embarrassed; I understand...
** We're [[InformedFlaw told]] that Kakuzu has a hell of a temper and killed all of his other partners in a fit of rage. Except he never tries to kill Hidan on screen, despite the fact that Hidan could basically be his very own stress ball and is ''very'' annoying. And then he mentions:
-->'''Kakuzu:''' I just can't kill him.

There is also the fact that...[[spoiler:kisame's dying thoughts were about Itachi.]]
* Each Akatsuki member is partnered with another, whom it doesn't look like they are ever far away from, and in each pair (except for Sasori and Deidara - the former seemed pretty genuinely hostile toward the latter) each half seems to have at least a grudging affection toward the other. These being Kisame/Itachi (they seem to get along very well compared to the other pairs) , Hidan/Kakuzu, and Tobi/Deidara (With Tobi acting like the adorably idiotic {{Keet}} and Deidara being something like a violent {{Tsundere}}).
** It doesn't help that Deidara ''looks like a girl''.
** [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tdKFMTsaaBA "I'm just a schoolgirl in love with her senpai!"]]
** The honorific used by Deidara when addressing his partner-in-crime Sasori got translated to English in Shippuden as "Sasori, my man" (and in some cases, "My man Sasori") and he uses this term at darn-near every opportunity. To older audiences, this line is dripping with bromance, which is probably a reason why it became a meme in the fandom.
*** Not to mention the fact that the honorific has multiple translations. The most accurate in context would be "Sasori, my man" but an extremely common (but unofficial) translation is "master Sasori".

Simply stating their names doesn\'t really reveal any canon ships. The only thing that can be determined based solely on their names is their most prominent parent, e.g. how would you know, based solely on the name \"Boruto Uzumaki\" that his mother is Hinata? All that reveals is that his father is Naruto.

* Sasuke x Naruto was apparent in the 2nd Shippuden (Bonds) movie with Naruto constantly chasing after Sasuke, Naruto and Sasuke fighting together, and Naruto destroying the part of the fortress that Sasuke was on to get him to leave and smiling fondly at him was oddly reminiscent of a certain romantic scene between Rose and Jack in ''{{Titanic}}'' when Rose got on one of the last lifeboats and was looking at Jack much like how Sasuke looked back at Naruto. Also, there's a scene where Naruto and Sasuke run past each other and have a HeldGaze moment.

* Kyuubi/Kurama's relationship with Naruto has a combination of tsundere and yandere vibes. The Fox Demon spends the majority of his screen time obsessively trying to get Naruto to rely on its powers. By itself that can easily be construed as self interest but Kurama's excessive attention to detail about Naruto's pain and how the fox wants Naruto to rely on the demon's power so Naruto will have the power to stop his pain, that the fox will protect Naruto from all harm that it can. That gives the vibe of an obsessive lover who won't let anyone near their partner and will tear all of their enemies to pieces just to make them happy. The vibe shifts to tsundere when Kurama acts extremely embarrassed to admit that it feels any deep feelings of friendship/companionship with Naruto after Naruto learns to master the fox's powers. Even at the end of the story where Kurama has been reunited with Naruto, in the aftermath of the war with Madara, the fox demon, with a blush on its face, refuses to admit that it missed being away from Naruto.

** In the filler that shows how they came to be rivals, Gai catches a glimpse of Kakashi's...lower parts (while he's on the toilet, no less). Made even more blatant when Gai ''voluntarily'' shows Kakashi his own. Apparently, it's [[TeenyWeenie the size of an acorn.]]

** In the filler that shows Episode 241 is full of these moments, but there is this one in particular: in a flashback showing how they came to be became rivals, Gai catches a glimpse of Kakashi's...lower parts (while he's on the toilet, no less).
