Since redbrunja  and bellzooks  did it first, I'll do it, too.

Ask me any question, any at all, and I will answer it to the best of my ability.  Ask more than one, if you like.

Favorite female character in Naruto, and why.

Oh, awesome.

I'd have to say Sakura, just on character development alone. She starts off as this...this young girl (just like any of us, though I am loath to admit the similarities early!Sakura and I shared), completely prone to sticking her foot in her mouth (I cringe every time I watch episode three, when she says that whole thing about not having parents right to Sasuke's face), and all dependent and slightkly selfish, and then--Forest of Death. She cuts off her hair, and vows to not be such a wuss anymore--I completely flip out with awesome every time I see that scene. The entire Forest of Death plot is probably one of my favorite sub-arcs in the entire series.

And then, when she goes and actually begs Sasuke not to leave--when she reveals that it's not just a crush, (not to her, anyway) that she honestly loves him as much as she understands love to be--she begs him to stay, to let her try to make him happy, to even help with his revenge even though she knows it's wrong--she offers to leave with him--

That whole scene kills me.

And then, Shippuuden Sakura? Yeah. Bitch, yeah. She doesn't just sit and mope and stagnate with Sasuke gone. She screws her head on tight and says, eff him, I'm going to develop and get strong and maybe if I ever run into him again, I can kick his ass and drag him back here with Naruto so things can go back to the way they were, on my terms. Just, just ILU Sakura~

Second favorite is probably Anko. Just for being Anko. And then Tsunade, and then Tenten, and Karin, and Shizune...and that one ANBU chick who helps avenge Hayate's death... Female Naruto characters are awesomesocks.

Can I just take a moment to say that I love how much Naruto fandom loves the ladies, even if Kishimoto doesn't? *moment*

And total word about Sakura's arc. I love her to bits, and it was a pleasure seeing how much she grew. Frankly, when I was Sakura's age, I would have hated her (I was immature in a different way, and she would have driven me insane) but now, I can appreciate who she was and what she grows into.

And Anko? Anko is freaking awesome. I loves that girl to bits. I need to write more for her, too. *ponders*
