Uchiha Sasuke & Haruno Sakura from Naruto are one of my oldest and dearest OTPs (and they REALLY tested my patience throughout their complicated history) ♥ They were adorable during their genin days in Team 7, but my heart broke for Sakura many times after Sasuke went rogue. This is one of the rare instances when my support for an OTP wavered, but I always believed there was still hope and am happy I never gave up on these two ♥

Version 1 features Sasuke and Sakura in a colorful blend of images from the past and present. I wanted to show both the innocent and complicated nature of their relationship, as well as the growth of these two characters over time. Their relationship was strained after Sasuke abandoned Konoha, but you wouldn’t be able to tell from this layout as it looks like he is protectively leaning into Sakura as they stand side by side ♥

This is also one of the rare times I reused an image for my design. I originally used this image of Sakura holding onto Sasuke in the first layout on Ichigo.nu in 2005 ♥
