* TomboyAndGirlyGirl: The Tomboy to both Hinata and Ino's Girly Girls, albet [[TomboyWithAGirlyStreak with her own girly streak]].

* UngratefulBitch: When she was a kid, she used to get bullied by the other kids for her huge forehead. Ino stood up to the bullies on her behalf and they were best friends after that...until Sakura developed a crush on Sasuke, then discovered Ino also liked him and told Ino that they couldn't be friends anymore because they were rivals for Sasuke's affection.

* ClingyJealousGirl: To [[SingleTargetSexuality Sasuke]]. Unlike Ino, Sakura ''doesn't'' get over this, to the point where she's now a LoveMartyr towards him.

* ACupAngst: Has a rather small chest and shows irritation about that, mostly in fillers though. Over time, however, she starts looking more womanly, especially after becoming a mother.

* {{Qipao}}: She wore a red one in Part I.

In Part II, Sakura has picked up SuperStrength and [[TheMedic medical skills]] courtesy of Tsunade's TrainingFromHell, which turns her from TheLoad to a fine kunoichi of her [[ExtraordinarilyEmpoweredGirl calibre]]. Her growth is shown in the first major fight of the new series, joining forces with Chiyo to help defeat Akatsuki member Sasori in a drawn-out battle, and her healing skills are put to use for much of the series.

* SkirtOverSlacks: Part of her standard attire.

* RoseHairedGirl: Is the only female character with pink hair, anime, manga or otherwise.

* NavelWindow: In adulthood, she seems fond of wearing qipao-style top that split just high enough above her pants to leave her navel visible in similar fashion to Karin.

* NavelWindow: In adulthood, she seems fond of wearing sleeveless qipao top splitting open to exposes her navel in similar fashion to Karin.

* IllGirl: In ''Naruto Gaiden'', [[spoiler:Shizune comments that Sakura would [[InformedFlaw faint when she was younger]]]].

** She mentions to Naruto that his feelings for her were superficial, even when she fell in love with Sasuke for superficial reasons.

* ManipulativeBitch: In the aforementioned 2010 Jump Festa interview, Kishimoto reveals that he intentionally {{Enforced|Trope}} this with Sakura in Chapter 469, when she gives Naruto her infamous [[FalseConfession fake love confession]]. {{Defied|Trope}} because every single person present, including Naruto, sees right through this and knows that she's lying. [[WhatTheHellHero Naruto calls her out on this]], [[ShipSinking rejects her outright]] by telling her that he '''hates''' people who lie to themselves, and breaks his promise to her.

** Played straight in Gaiden. She holds nothing against Sasuke being an absent parent and husband for ten years of her life, even covering for him at the cost of damaging her relationship with Sarada, her daughter.

''Here be spoilers. Anything that has not been aired on the free version[[note]]one week after the paid version[[/note]] of [[http://www.crunchyroll.com/library/Naruto_Shippuden Crunchyroll]] should be spoiler-tagged.''

* ChildhoodFriendRomance: She marries and has a daughter with [[spoiler:Sasuke]], her childhood crush and [[SingleTargetSexuality the only man she ever loved]].

* AngerBornOfWorry: Towards Naruto. No matter how skilled he becomes, she always has serious concerns about his safety during combat situations, especially when she punches him after coming back from his battle with Pain for making them all worry, then hugs him (never mind that he did not reciprocate her hug, which [[{{Foreshadowing}} foreshadowed]] their definitive ShipSinking in the subsequent story arc). Though justified: as the jinchuuriki of the Nine Tails, Naruto has more enemies (some ridiculously powerful) than your average shinobi. However, [[{{Hypocrite}} it cannot be ignored that there are times Sakura does something concerning and doesn't always have the strength and resolve to help when she wants to]].

** She was the Archie for Naruto's "Betty" (friendly, hardworking ninja who later becomes a messiah-like person) and Sasuke's "Veronica" (arrogant, top-student who later becomes a rogue ninja) for Sakura's Archie. [[spoiler:In the end, Sakura marries the Veronica, while Naruto marries the Betty (Hinata) in his own love triangle]].

* UselessBystanderParent: In ''Manga/NarutoGaiden'', abuse in the form of neglect is presented with [[spoiler: Sakura. While she is married to Sasuke and raised Sarada with him early on (Sarada having a vague memory of him and Sakura holding her hands when she was very young), she stayed mostly silent for over 10 years about Sasuke's disappearance within the family. She told Sarada little about him aside from the fact that he's a part of their family and that he's on an important mission that he must do, and even actually ''lied'' by presenting Sasuke's old photo with Taka members, except by overlaying their figures with hers. While this problem is rectified in the end, it doesn't stop the fact that she basically did emotionally abuse her daughter by not giving her evidence. Abuse that started early and went on for over a decade doesn't magically heal by simply finding the answer in RealLife, as the series shows.]] Lack of communication from Sarada didn't help matters, as Sakura expresses she thought she ''had'' made things clear enough to her, and thus is surprised when Sarada runs off to find Sasuke.

* TomboyWithAGirlyStreak: Sakura is loud, abrasive, and generally tomboyish, but as shown in Part I, she's also a ''huge'' romantic who is very conscious about her social standing, leading to her trying to put on a more girly pretense in front of [[SingleTargetSexuality Sasuke]], while her tomboyish side is kept as "Inner Sakura."

TheChick of Team 7. For most of the series Naruto [[DoggedNiceGuy has a comical unrequited crush on her]], [[TriangRelations but she acts dismissive towards him while she's in love with Sasuke]]; However, over the course of the series she grows to appreciate and care for Naruto [[FireForgedFriends as a friend]] [[TrueCompanions and teammate]] in great part due to their shared bond with Sasuke. She would eventually become Sasuke Uchiha's wife and the mother of Sarada Uchiha in ''Manga/{{Boruto}}''. Sakura herself is an intelligent, gifted ''kunoichi'' from Konoha. Unlike most other ninja in the series, she has no unique skills of her own, using only standard ninja techniques and her brains. As a result, during Part I, she mostly sits on the sidelines. After failing to prevent her only love, Sasuke's defection, and seeing a badly injured Naruto in the hospital, she concludes that she can't leave things like this, and apprentices herself to Princess Tsunade with the intent of no longer being a burden and help bringing Sasuke back.

From then on, Sakura's focus and presence in the story {{Zig Zags}} in importance, though the two constants that remain throughout are [[SingleTargetSexuality her unwavering love for Sasuke]] and [[LikeBrotherAndSister her platonic friendship with Naruto]]. During the Fourth Shinobi World War, she unlocks her full potential with the White Strength Seal and like her teacher Tsunade, gains a permanent mark on her forehead signifying mastery, although for the most part she is still relegated to being TheMedic. Even though she participates in the final battle against [[BigBad Kaguya]], Naruto and Sasuke still do all the fighting while she serves as a distraction, and she realizes that she CantCatchUp to them after all. By the story's end, [[EarnYourHappyEnding her love for Sasuke is finally realized and reciprocated]]; they marry after he is redeemed by Naruto and have one daughter together, Sarada Uchiha.

*** The development to not stay on the sidelines brings this quality more forward as she would later drug her entire team because she wanted to face Sasuke alone, and she knew they would try to stop her from going on what's essentially a suicide mission, instead of working together as a team. To put in perspective with the above, yes she does try to provide a distraction, but she plans this out only a few feet away from Naruto and Sasuke and makes '''no''' attempt at all to let them in on the plan or to ask what they think. They're just as surprised as Madara was by the distraction, and when she's ''immediately'' defeated, [[DamselInDistress they both have to jump in to save her]]. So she was as every bit as distracting to ''her own team'' as she was to her target. Her failed attempt to distract Madara proves to be more of a LeeroyJenkins moment than a HeroicSacrifice, and it reaffirms her continual statuses as a FauxActionGirl and TheLoad.

** Subverted in Shippuden, as it's not until Sasuke apologizes near the ''end'' of the series that she actually accepts what he has to say, even being willing [[FauxActionGirl but not really]] to try and kill Sasuke when it seems saving him is no longer an option.

* KnowNothingKnowItAll: {{Deconstructed|Trope}}. While she was one of the top students of the Academy (second only to Ino, who became the Kunoichi of the Year), she considered herself a lot stronger than the 'Dead-Last' Naruto since she equated 'knowing more about textbook things translates to real life'. During her first ''real'' mission in the Land of Waves, she realized Naruto was not only stronger than her but had pulled far ahead and during the Chunin Exams, she sacrificed the long hair she had grown meticulously so Sasuke would notice her in an attempt to save her teammates who were unconscious from the battle with Orochimaru. Sakura eventually becomes Tsunade's apprentice, TookALevelInBadass in the first arc of Part II...and then has no truly memorable fights afterwards, and is TheMedic on the sidelines at best. However, during the last stage of the [[WarArc Fourth Shinobi World War Arc]] [[spoiler:she can keep up with KCM Naruto ''and'' a Complete Susano'o EMS Sasuke...until she gets OvershadowedByAwesome rather quickly, and after realizing that she just CantCatchUp, she ultimately has to rely on her two teammates yet again]].

* TheLoad: For Part I, she admits that she only really stood on the sidelines, and also wound up being a DamselInDistress on several occasions. {{Averted|Trope}} at the beginning of Part II, despite the [[MemeticLoser what the majority of the fandom]] likes to think, as she pulled her weight and TookALevelInBadass by studying medical jutsu and attaining super-strength. She ends up feeling like this again by the Fourth Ninja World War, having been overshadowed by Naruto's Six Paths Sage Mode and Sasuke's Complete Body -- Susanoo even after she attains the Strength of a Hundred Seal, though she nevertheless gets the final blow in on Kaguya Ōtsutsuki -- stunning her long enough for Naruto and Sasuke to seal her.

* NeutralFemale: Sakura is infamous for spending most of the time in battle just standing with a kunai in a defensive position while her male teammates do all the actual fighting (it made sense in the Bridge Builder arc because she was left as the only one actually guarding the person they were supposed to be guarding). If they had indicated that she's supposed to be a non-combatant, this would have been more acceptable, but the fact that [[FauxActionGirl she's supposed to be a highly trained ninja]] makes this all the more insulting. It isn't until the first arc after the TimeSkip that [[TookALevelInBadass she does anything else]]...[[DoubleSubvertedTrope until she gets shunted to the sidelines again]] as TheMedic and doesn't have any memorable fights throughout the rest of the series. The fact that both Naruto and Sasuke [[StayInTheKitchen tell her to stay back as they fight]] at different times in the WarArc and then [[DumbassHasAPoint they both]] [[JerkassHasAPoint point out]] in Chapters 678 and 680 that she and Kakashi won't be of much help in the fight against the BigBadEnsemble doesn't help.

* OvershadowedByAwesome: By the end of the series, Sakura is one of the most powerful kunoichis (or even ninja in general) alive, potentially even more powerful than her teacher Tsunade, but she is still far below Naruto and Sasuke who managed to reach near god-like levels unattainable for her. And since she is often around them she tends to end up faced with opponents she has little chance against. When faced with powerful but still "mundane" enemies she fares much better.

** During the second bell test in the Kazekage Rescue arc, Sakura shatters the ground with her [[SuperStrength Cherry Blossom Impact]], something that [[NoGuyWantsAnAmazon makes both Naruto and Kakashi look like they're about to wet their pants]]. While this is PlayedForLaughs, Kakashi clearly had no idea she knew this technique. Considering that both she and Kakashi had been in Konoha for the past three years, this means that Kakashi paid no attention to her ''at all'', even though she was the only one of his students who was ''still'' in the village during the TimeSkip.
** After their first failed attempt at bringing Sasuke back during the Sai and Sasuke arc, Team 7 meets to try to figure out next steps. Sakura shares the research she's been doing on Sasuke's powers and asks Kakashi what's next. Kakashi promptly reveals training that both he and Yamato will be helping Naruto on, and completely neglects including Sakura in any training or further planning. Had Kakashi prepared her better or ''at all'', she might have been able to work better with Team 7 in later matters.

* ReleasingFromThePromise: Subverted when out of guilt and shame of having hurt Naruto's feelings in the past and fearing that he will die, makes a [[BreakHisHeartToSaveHim false]] [[FalseConfession love confession]] to him in a desperate attempt to release him of his "Promise of a Lifetime" to her: [[IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy bringing back the guy she loves, Sasuke, to her]]. Naruto sees right through her fake confession, [[WhatTheHellHero calls her out for lying]], tells her that he '''hates''' people who lie to themselves, and says that even if she releases him from his promise, ''he'' has [[TrueCompanions his own reasons]] for doing wanting Sasuke to come back.

** Played Straight with [[spoiler:Sasuke]] at the end of the manga, who makes his definitive HeelFaceTurn after Naruto finally knocks sense into him and he becomes TheAtoner.

* AbusiveParents: She's very emotionally negligent of [[spoiler:Sarada's emotions revolving about her disappeared father, avoiding the subject and later outright ''lying'' to her daughter instead of telling the truth. While the question is eventually answered, it's clear that their relationship is damaged by her mother's actions.]]

* UselessBystanderParent: In ''Manga/NarutoGaiden'', abuse in the form of neglect is presented with [[spoiler: Sakura. While she is married to Sasuke and gave birth to Sarada with him, she stayed silent for over 10 years about Sasuke's disappearance within the family (he's out-in-duty watching over Orochimaru's hideout). She didn't tell Sarada anything about him besides the fact that he's a part of their family, and even actually ''lied'' by presenting Sasuke's old photo with Taka members, except by overlaying their figures with hers. While this problem is rectified in the end, it doesn't stop the fact that she basically did emotionally abuse her daughter by not giving her evidence. Abuse that started early and went on for over a decade doesn't magically heal by simply finding the answer in RealLife, as the series shows.]]
** This is actually ''{{Deconstructed}}''. [[spoiler: Because of the long, long time that Sarada spent without Sasuke, she ended up becoming closer with Naruto, who's basically her true father in all but name and genetics.]]
