Yeah, Sakura's logic here makes it seem like she thinks Naruto of all people has a lack of actual empathy and moral compass, when if anything it's the opposite.

She still can't control her temper.
The woman regularly destroys her own house due to her tantrums.
Also I'm not bagging on single-moms just the idea of Sakura raising a child alone is a scary thought though having Rancid Sauce in the picture would be even worse.
It really is not a good look for her.

"I am Alpharius. This is a lie."
@ Rynnec: Just goes to show that Sakura really doesn't know Naruto as well as she thinks she does. And that's why Hinata's Best Girl. XP
@ slim: Well, I'll retract my earlier presumption, but it's not like, for all of her faults (like her fixation on the Sauce), Sakura couldn't legitimately develop into a person who could properly raise a child. Hell, at least she's there for Sarada.

The relationships in this series are so toxic and it can all be traced back to Sasuke. If he had an unfortunate slip on the bathroom floor once he Jumped Off The Slippery Slope, the series would have been much shorter.
I liked it better when Questionable Casting was called WTH Casting Agency
She even pulled the "You used to be such a prankster loser" as if, after all this time, she still doesn't understand him at all or why he was like that, or why she was wrong to be such an ass to him when they were kids.
It's more like she wants him to think he finally earned the right to be treated like a human, which is still all kinds of shitty.

If anything, the bump on the head from the fall would only amplify Sasuke's unwarranted hatred and incredibly loose grip on reality.

Oh, yeah. 
I realized that it has been 13 years since Naruto first premiered on CN. Let that sink in.

And now we've come to the best part of this episode—the ending!
RIP Akira Toriyama, taken from us far too soon.

More likes second best since they cut out the actual best part of the episode.
This Won't End Well...
I like the mouth animations.
Yep, I'm still here.
@ Beary: 13 years. Wow.
Which means that, factoring in the four-year-gap between the original Toonami and the [adult swim] revival, Naruto will have been running for ~16 years should it finish up its run in about another 7.
Kill me now.
@ Rojixus: While I can never bring myself to dislike the series as a whole (Kishimoto's writing and execution are another story), it's a shame that we're at that part of the series where everything but the kitchen sink feels like a slog.

Kisame is still one of the coolest characters in the show.
The early Akatsuki really were all the best & the Uchihaha's could not hold up in coolness.
Which was?

"I am Alpharius. This is a lie."
If my memory serves me correctly, this was that pretty nice Honey-centric episode involving her brother.

Space Dandy vs Cloud Dandy!
RIP Akira Toriyama, taken from us far too soon.
This episode is hilarious. XD
I smell magic in the air. Or maybe barbecue.
Is that ... a laugh track?
Just in case anyone forgot, the laugh track you hear is actually part of the episode. It even gets addressed in a fourth wall break.
@Slim: The OP of course!
The Head of the Hydra
Oh right.
Shame we never hear that.

Between the teasing in this episode and the one where Scarlet and Dandy have to pose a couple, it's too bad nothing actually came of it in the end. They definitely have good chemistry.

It's a shame nothing came out of a lot of things in this show.
Well, on that joyous rerun that I completely forgot I loved, I'm outta here. Until next week, folks.
Yeah. :/
See y'all next week. 
I wouldn't go quite that far, slim.
If anything, I'd argue Sarada not being screwed up like 90% of the Uchiha clan shows that Sakura actually did pretty well as a single mom with a deadbeat for a husband.
(Plus, there's nothing wrong with being a single parent. You're making that sound like it's inherently negative, which is... not good.)
That said, it doesn't detract from Sakura's clinging to the Idiot Ball in just about everything Sasuke-related from this point on.
