shikamaru himself explains at that moment that no, in his case at least, he wants to save sasuke because he is a brother of the leaf and shikamaru trusts his comrades, he doesn’t think he’s wasting his team for one guy, perfectly understandable, but that doesn’t change how tayuya has established a logic inside the narrative: there is a line to cross.
tayuya talks about “wasting a team” for one guy but it’s not the “wasting a team” aspect that is gay, it’s the idea of “going too far” for a guy that’s very important to you, now i wonder who has an entire narrative surrounding this idea, of many people questioning “why would you go that far for one guy?”.
“is that boy sasuke that important to you?” and the answer to naruto is yes, but not because sasuke is a “brother of the leaf”, and then you continue with what tayuya says after… so you are a homo.
i guess it’s easy to accept that what they feel for each other is love, but it’s very curious how they parallel two people with implied romantic feelings in every single aspect of their relationship. you can disagree all you want and i know people will, but no one has yet provided the textual evidence that shows otherwise. sasuke clearly has a soft spot for naruto, naruto is the only one sasuke shows weakness towards, sasuke admits naruto made me him feel at ease, and one of the things that actually got sasuke’s attention in naruto’s behaviour was his prankster gremlin antics, a trait generally rejected by others.
Every figure that Naruto meets is a piece of his own psyche, leading him to his inevitable final decision.
again, i’m not here to morally judge haku and zabuza’s relationship or kishimoto’s decisions, the age gap isn’t part of naruto and sasuke’s relationship anyway, but i want to follow the internal logic of the manga, it was certainly a choice to add this romantic subtext for zabuza and haku while making naruto and sasuke follow the exact same patterns.
shikaku
shikaku talks about someone rough having a soft spot for the person they love, and shikamaru thinks his father likes to be bossed around by his mother.
through the manga we see that sasuke calls naruto that multiple times, and sometimes it is when naruto is being an “idiot”, but it’s also in endearing moments, the most remarkable one being vote2, after their reconciliation. Naruto's main heterosexual role model, Jiraya, fares little better: A senior citizen who limits himself to Konoha soaphouse tarts and who loves nothing more than getting a little boy to turn into a little girl for his own perverse gratification.
A similar scene in the anime takes this even further, with Orochimaru saying that he's appeared as both a man and a woman but that it doesn't really matter. in the boruto movie, we learn that sasuke has its own definition for usuratonkachi, someone who hates to lose, a very noticeable trait of naruto’s personality, but something endearing to sasuke nonetheless.
Sarada didn't elaborate on her words but has clearly picked up on the crush as well, which means the franchise could finally be adding some much-needed diversity.
Given the twinkle in Mitsuki's eyes and his slight blushing, he may end up telling Boruto soon. Sarada then made a very telling statement, confessing how Mitsuki's eyes light up when it comes to Boruto.
And ultimately, it'd prove Boruto is all about bold moves with flagship characters, acceptance and acknowledging the cosmopolitan world its fans live in.

What a lot of people don't understand about Naruto is that the whole story serves as a metaphor for a young man attempting to understand his conflicted feelings about his own sexuality.
tayuya doesn’t define love, she defines homosexuality specifically.
in sasuke’s retrieval arc, during tayuya vs shikamaru, tayuya asks if sasuke is that important for them to waste a team for one guy, and says that’s gay, there’s no euphemism or disguise on her words, she says they are homos. We have Sasuke, the dashing young rival who Naruto learns to open his feelings to.
In a series with a cast as wide and varied as Naruto's, it's an unfortunate symptom of the era it was made in that the series' only prominent Queer character is a former villain obsessed with stealing bodies. i also took inspiration from my friend @narutouzumakiarchivewho so accurately wrote, and i quote, when determining the validity of something in canon you need to look at the internal logic of the world and the values that the author promotes, my post will only show other instances where naruto and sasuke do exactly (to each other) what is established by the manga itself as “love” or “romance” and even “gay”, many of them have already been pointed out by myself or other people in the fandom, but i wanted to put them all together to reinforce how a narrative is built and how an in universe logic is established.
My mother or father?" to which the former villain responds that the question is irrelevant. When we look at his authority figures, he sees his battle personified: Kakashi, while a pervert at first glance, does little more than read his books since evil women apparently scorn him. zabuza wishes to go to the same place haku went in the afterlife.
and yet the devotion, the desire to protect someone who is precious to you, the acceptance, all of those aspects that fall under the definition of love in haku and zabuza’s relationship are applied to naruto and sasuke.

the homosexuality and romance in naruto and sasuke’s relationship is textually supported inside the story
this is just an expansion of my own old post (rip sasukesun), but panels will be included in this edition. when naruto meets sasuke, he tells him the same things hinata said to him, and after everything, naruto proposes a double suicide with sasuke because he can’t bear the idea of existing without him, with this kind of separation.
