* BitchInSheepsClothing: Sakura's uncle Yutaka turns out to be one of these early in the story when she reveals her new doujutsu and unwittingly uncovers his strong anti-shinobi bias. It gets reinforced later as she realizes he never cared about her so much as he wanted to lure her into a marriage with one of his sons to increase his standing within the clan.

* DisasterDominoes: Sakura's doujutsu grants her the ability to mess with someone's motor control, which can lead to comically disastrous consequences. Her first proper use of it in the field led to one man crashing into a produce stand and setting off a chain reaction that resulted in significant property damage throughout an entire town block.



* MuggingTheMonster: A random villager throw a can of paint at Sakura's group during a mission, thinking them "fancy shmancy samurai". Sakura compares it to watching a drunk kick a bear.

Onimeno lampshades this by pointing out that while Sasuke may be regarded as big stuff by the village by being the last living legitimate Uchiha, his development as a shinobi is actually below average compared to the rest of the clan when they were still alive.

Added DiffLines:

* AdaptationalBadass: Team 8 becomes an exceptional sabotage team due to Sakura's presence and her possession of a powerfully disruptive doujutsu. Their training and experience enable them to completely CurbStomp all of their competition in the Chuunin exams, and by the time the story picks up after the three year TimeSkip, they have all been promoted to Jounin.
* AdaptationalNiceGuy: Though it's never explained how, Hinata's assignment to Team 7 was apparently enough of a change that Sasuke never ended up defecting to Orochimaru. He's still a pretentious prick though.
* AdaptationRelationshipOverhaul: Sakura's friendships form differently due to her being placed on Team 8 rather than Team 7, and she also forms a close bond to Hinata due to both of them coming from prestigious families and being doujutsu users who had a bad encounter with Kumo shinobi. Another major change is that Choujuro, one of the Seven Swordsman of the Mist, becomes her primary LoveInterest as a byproduct of her samurai background.

* AdaptationalBackstoryChange: Part of the premise of the story. Rather than civilians, Sakura's mother is the firstborn child of the head of a very prestigious noble samurai clan based in Iron Country, and her father is a famous Konoha Jounin. These relationships play a huge role in shaping Sakura's career as a Konoha kunoichi.

to:

* BeenThereShapedHistory: Team 8 specializes in sabotage, which means most of their assignments are focused on destabilizing foreign powers in various ways to maintain Konoha supremacy. Their exploits shift the political landscape of the Elemental Nations to such a degree that the Fourth Secret War develops completely differently from canon, and several of Akatsuki's goals are thwarted before they can even begin.

* CoolTeacher: Kurenai and Asuma are both this for Team 8 and Team 10.



* DefectorFromDecadence: Sakura's mother Mebuki was this in her youth, choosing to abandon a noble samurai clan with extremely high standing in Iron Country to marry a Jonin from Konoha. It's downplayed in that she remains a member of the clan's main family with good standing (and even got her husband adopted onto the clan roll), and Sakura was in the running to be named heir to the clan head had she desired the position.

* DrJerk: Dr. Onimemo is the doujutsu doctor for Konoha and a complete prick. He tells Sakura he calls her Patient 719 because he doubts he'll ever see her again. In reality, he calls her that even after they'll be seeing each other regularly. It's later shown that he calls everyone by either their patient number or, if they're a patient's friend/teammate/family, by a patient number plus an addendum. For example, Sakura's teammate Kiba is 719-c. He's later shown to be considerably ruder to people who don't make appointments outside extenuating circumstances (Sasuke's Sharingan developing further doesn't warrant an immediate visit but Sakura's developing doujutsu causing her pain does).

This or these examples of Surprisingly Realistic Outcome seem to violate at least one of these rules, which disqualifies them: No character reactions (characters get angry, don't forgive, don't change their personality instantly, etc.); Too fantastical (depends on the properties of magic, powers, sci-fi tech, monsters, etc.); Not surprising (a character was warned about the outcome, it's used to provide Karma or An Aesop, or it simply follows normal conventions for this genre or medium); Plot happens (the example only describes an event, but not why audiences would expect a different, unrealistic outcome); Not an outcome (a character just explains why something wouldn't work as expected, or something is just an innate aspect of the setting or character that has a logical reason for being present); More of a Deconstruction (the event has major, lasting effects on the plot, make something more realistic, but not completely realistic, or a parody/fanwork applies realistic consequences to the events of a different work); or fits better under a different trope. See the trope's definition for more details. If you believe a removal was a mistake, please bring it up in the cleanup thread.

** People with different doujutsu breeding does not result in a new more powerful doujutsu. Most of the time, it results in random mutations that range from a slightly different version of one doujutsu to stillbirth.

Most people seem to think that developing a doujutsu is a wondrous, unspeakably lucky occurrence. Considering that she now has to deal with an ability she has no idea how to use, family drama, fashion crises, and the world's most rude and vulgar doctor, on top of getting to know her new genin team just after graduation...needless to say, Sakura begs to differ.

The story itself demonstrates what would realistically happen if Sakura had mysteriously awaken with a new dojustu. Can be found [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/8661803/1/The-Eyes-Have-It here]] . As a result of the new dojustu, Sakura eventually joins Kurenai in a newly formed Team Eight which consists of Sakura, herself, Kiba and Shino.
