Yeah, my reaction to the spoilers was "Sakura can't even be the hero of her own heart anymore? Naruto has to be the only hero even there?" But it's nice to know that the art kind of helps make it just another level of the sexy fucked-up-ness that is Team 7...even if we're going to have to fanwank hard to keep Sakura from looking like a complete tool.
I'm not saying the reaction doesn't make any sense, even though it's illogical and is a case of thoughtlessly hurting people while trying to protect them -- it's very human, but Sakura comes out of it looking rather bad and since it's been a while since she had a good kickass moment she's been spending all her "one good emotional cry" tickets. I really hope she's got awesome moments coming up and she's not gonna be sidelined until the end of the manga. Sure, she's a faillible human and that's what I like about her, but I'm tired of only seeing the failing parts in recent chapters.
But yeah, even if next chapter has "heh, I knew that you knew, i just wanted to make it clear to everone now let's save sasuke" she'll still come off as callous. *sigh*
Especially since only a few chapters ago she was crying her heart out over Sasuke. Again. And now she's supposed to be all calm and rational about her suddenly discovered love for Naruto. Thank god Kishi was planning to make the confession fail because it would NOT have been believable if that was his plan. Now i'm just hoping she'll get to actually do something right soonish. *kicks Kishi*
lol Yamato totally looked like he wanted to choke Sakura or at the very least tackle her to the ground just to stop her from her crazy talk. Anyway, I really hope you're right about Sakura.
You know it's fake, Naruto knows it's fake, Sakura knows it's fake, hell even KAKASHI knows it's fake or else he wouldn't have shut Yamato up like that.
I feel like there's more meaning to it. Maybe it's the art, I dunno, but I really do have a feeling that there's something else to it. Like you, I think it's just better to wait for the next chapter. She's getting the yelling of a lifetime from him, you know it.

yeah, there's something in the way the flashbacks were presented, especially Kiba's, and the way Lee and Kiba just watched her confess after the first moments of D:, and also the very last page... I dunno, I seriously hope it's implying something else is going on underneath.
It also made me wander a little bit about Hinata's reaction. It seemed to me like Sakura told the old Rookie 12 (minus Shikamaru and Lee) about her plan - did she say anything about deceiving Naruto, even if it was for his safety? She is an overvalued minor character, but she's supposed to know Naruto really, really well *due to stalking no jutsu* True, years have passed since she could do that, but I think she might have an idea of the depth of Naruto's understanding of his loved ones' feelings. (What a stupid sentence this turned out to be :D)
Ironic Shikamaru wasn't there. He could have pointed out the flaws of her plan, I'm sure.
Lee's facepalming on the last panel on page 11 was funneh. :D
