How does Sakura continue to reign as the number 1 useless character of all time?
Why did she think that she brought Naruto and Sasuke back together?
I'm going to assume there is going to be at least 3 more power-ups before the final conclusion.
Because, for some unknown reason Kishi wants to troll her as hard as he can. There was so much potential for that character. Even though she has no connection to the SO6P, she still could have been written to have more combat skill development from her training with Tsunade. Instead, Kishi wanted to make her witless and weak. Only Kishi knows why.
Let's be fair with Sakura, in the battle between an exact copy of Sage of Six Paths against two that inherited his powers ANYONE would be useless. Even Kakashi couldn't do much and Gaara had to bail.
Sakura being a mini Tsunade can pretty much pawn most jonin with her super strength and regenerative ability. She was also the only kunoichi who cleared large masses of mini Juubi. Kishimoto's fault was that he was too fixated on Uchiha vs Senju bloodline that he made any third wheel in their battles pretty much irrelevant. He should have found a way to make her inherit some of those sage powers to make it Madara vs Team 7 in the truest sense.
PS: I think it has also been made clear that Sakura no longer fancies Sasuke in a romantic way. As much as I want Hinata to win, Sakura's gonna end up with Naruto.
