Sakura+Syaoran?

(1/6) > >>

aktorist:
Is this board at a general concensus that Sakura and Syaoran are meant to be?

Well, I currently see little reasoning why that is actually.
Saying two people are meant to be together is like a random person saying that you and another random person are meant to be together.
That is just wrong.

So, there must be some reason, right?

I will start by asking these questions:

Does Sakura love Syaoran? Why does Sakura love Syaoran? How does Sakura love Syaoran?

This is what I currently know:

Firstly, Sakura loves Syaoran. It is very obvious that Sakura loves Syaoran.

Sakura loves Syaoran because... he helped her and protected her... with magical stuff... and that Yukito thing. Actually, I really do not see much of a reason other than that.
They do not really talk that much... in episode 66, all he did was say one to two words, or something. Was he really that attentive? Maybe he was. We do not know.
Sakura feels protected around Syaoran. Syaoran has his magic, after all, even though Sakura is stronger.
Syaoran is Sakura's problem solver. He really does not make things better, but he makes the situationo better, and gets her to think.
For example, once when Sakura was crying, Syaoran yelled at her to stop crying and think.

How does Syaoran love Sakura? Is Syaoran really Sakura sweety?
To that question, I think... was there any reason Sakura loves him that way?
Well?
I see that Sakura cares for him very much, and feels a sense of security around him physically, but not emotionally.
You could see the fact that Sakura loves everyone. She really does love everyone. If anyone loved her, would she be afraid to reject that person?

Does Syaoran love Sakura? Why does Syaoran love Sakura? How does Syaoran love Sakura?
I could say yes to the first question... but it seems like to the second question, there is no answer.

Is there really anything Syaoran loves about Sakura?
This arises new question:

1. Would Syaoran love Sakura if Sakura was normal, or if Sakura was just someone who watched someone capture the cards?
2. Would Syaoran love Sakura if Sakura was unskilled in using her magic to the very end?
3. Does Syaoran really love Sakura for who she is?

How well to Sakura and Syaoran get along together?

You could tell from that episode where Syaoran tells Sakura not to cry that the emotional people are people who are "weak." However, Sakura is that emotional, so Syaoran would regard her as "weak," right?
Also, Syaoran can be emotional himself... a little. There are a few half-smiles here and there, right? Other than that, you could tell easily that Syaoran scowl (or blushes) all the time.
And how does Syaoran show his love? Blushing? Getting jealous? Sparse gift-giving?

As for Sakura, well, Syaoran would barely talk... Syaoran would care much about her, and get jealous of people who hang around her... and when she gets excited, would Syaoran get that hyper too?

...

So, you tell me.
These are my questions.

D.J.P:
Off-Topic: expect to not have a warm reception to this topic on this forum, as this community is built around thier relationship.

To answer your question: yes, the are to be together, its all through-out the Anime and the Manga.

fisah:
Yes, Sakura + Syaoran may seem far-fetched, underdeveloped, so on and so forth, however, they are kids. Kids usually dont even know what love is, its already a honorable feat that they knew they had some type of conection. Yes, they concluded it as love, because that's what they felt, well at least Sakura, when they were around Yukito. Sakura even said it herself that she felt pain when Syaoran was leaving, something she never expereinced before. So is it really far-fetched?

I think I should break it down, so its more easier to understand:

1) Development

I for one, think this realtionship had minimal development, however, it was enough for us to see they liked each other. Syaoran had a little bit of a crush on her, but it soon changed when Sakura got rejected by Yukito. He sacrificed his own happiness and feelings, so Sakura could be happy. He didn't want to trouble her.

Soon, Sakura started to become even closer to Syaoran, until he told her he loved her. Of course, she was confused, because she just got rejected from her crush, and now her close friend had confessed to her. Maybe Sakura was abrupt with her desicion, maybe she didn't think through things more, perhaps she was just looking for some comfort, the point is she thought she loved him, and so be it.

People have to understand that love doesn't mean hot passionate kisses, or showing your affection 24/7 in some way or form. I've always believed that love meant happiness. If you truly cared about someone, and they made you happy, and you thought it was love, so be it. Syaoran made Sakura happy, vice versa, so yes they did love each other. It might not be deep and wise, or passionate and hot, but they think its love, and that's what counts.

2) Age

Sakura and Syaoran are young, they are naive, they have simple desires. They are childern. But children can love, they can experience something wonderful, and perhaps never forget. With everything they went through, I don't think their love was thin, I think it was just blooming. Even in the manga, Sakura waited for Syaoran, regardless of how long, she waited. Doesn't that say something? Sure it may not be realistic, but its as realistic its going to get when talking about CLAMP. She waited, he came back, and they were happy. To them, happiness = love.

Now, I remember an interview I read awhile back, with CLAMP talking about CCS, and a certain question led to one of the woman to say the whole point of CCS was to show the different love people have. For example, Yukito x Touya is shonen ai, Sakura x Tomoyo is shoujo ai. Sakura and Syaroan is a another kind of love as well, which is hard to understand to some people because there isn't much to it. I mean, like I said, hey wanted happiness from each other, they felt comfortable around each other, sure they didn't talk much, but they are children who are going through something extraodinary. They aren't going to have a deep and meaningful conversation, because they are kids. Kids who go to the park and smile at one another.

So, what does that mean? A love based on happiness. Hell, if I were a little girl, and I met a boy who cared about me, and worried about me, and made me happy, I'd conclude as love. I wouldn't have a deep conversation with him, because I'm little. It just doesn't work like that for them. With all their problems out there, their love was a void from all their problems, where they could enjoy something simple like happiness.

I posted this in the other forum, and here's the rest of my reply XD

As for you're questions:

Yes Sakura does love Syaroan

Sakura loves Syaoran because he is a kind sweet boy, who made her feel something...different then what she usually felt. She felt special in fact. Syaroan was mean to her, neglected her, but then, he started to worry about her. This made her feel something because she got through to him. Someone she wanted to be friends with became closer to her. However, she started to feel something other than friendship, she started to notice his worries, his questions his presence meant more to her.

She shows him love by making that bear for him, and waiting for him. She shows she loves him because she's devoted to him, she waited for him. She makes him feel better, like a smile, a hug, or even a scarf/yukuta. Sakura shows her love just fien, frankly. I think that kissing thing is coming into play....

There doesn't have to be a reason to love someone. I can easily say why does Touya love Yukito? Or why does Fujitaka love Nadeshico, or perhaps even why Tomoyo loves Sakura? Love doesn't need a reason, and it isn't suppose to be questioned. Love is infinite, it defys all laws of logic, reasoning, whatever. Love is love, no matter what.

Uh...no. Sakura is emotionally and physically attached to him. Did you not read/watch that playground scene? Or perhaps the one at the ski lodge

D.J.P:
Wonderful.

Thanks for that in-depth analysis fisah :D

Continued

Being secure around someone is an emotional feeling. Why did she tell Syaoran of all people about Yukito? Beacuse she knew he would understand, and she felt secure around him emotionally enough to trust him with her rejection.

Yes, Sakura loves everyone, but not the way she loves Syaoran. She tells him everything, or anything that bothers her. Any emotional problem there is, she tells him. I dont see her giving scarfs to people, or giving them bears, or being that devoted to everybody. You can love everybody, but not like that oen special person.

Okay, for the magic bit. That's just crap. Syaoran would love Sakura just because she is Sakura! She is nice to him, she cared about, she was pateint with him! She showed him kindness he never experienced before. In fact, the love Tomoyo and Syaoran have are indentical, except one thing:

Sakura loves Syaoran, not Tomoyo.

He called her weak at the beginning because he was confused. He never saw a person cry before because of their friend. The kindess she showed suprised him, and he thought it was weakness. He soon realized her kindness was her strength.

Also, Syaoran shows his love in many ways. First off, he was willign to scarfice his feelings for her, to make her happy. Once she got rejected by Yukito, he decided her happiness was more important than his. He shows his love by always worrying about her, watching over her.

Jeez, these are kids, they wont show it in any other way. Frankly you're expecting too much from a childhood love.

EDIT: Thank you SLi ^^
