uzumakiess: Actually since nh/ss fans started fuss over popularity which was their biggest mistake because of the lack of information. I’m actually pretty surprised to see that popularity actually bothers you and I’m here to prove you are..well wrong. In many countries, mainly Japan they don’t use pairing…

(Sorry I wanted to post this separately too so it didn’t get lost as just a reblog because this really bothers my inner nerd.)

Time out guys. No disrespect to the OP or anyone, but this technique is really stupid(I’m sorry, it is).

I don’t care about pairing popularity. I ship what I like and that’s it, HOWEVER, Searching “Naruto and Sakura” or “Naruto and Sasuke” or “Naruto x Hinata” does ZERO to prove the popularity of a pairing , as ⚡️way more than 75% of the results ⭐️will not⭐️ be pairing related⚡️.(Especially considering a large portion of the fandom is not into pairings! )

Like really guys… I’m not saying this in a, “pairing wars” way but in a, “I used to work as an online researcher” way . Naruto is not just a character in a manga , Naruto IS a manga. Naruto is a tv show. Naruto is a movie series. Naruto is a food…Etc etc… When you are searching these terms that means you are combing the web for all pages that combine these terms.

That can mean, Sasuke vs Naruto discussions or Hinata as a character on Naruto. Hell! It can mean some boy named Hinata who posts about Naruto. When you search Naruto x Sakura or any pairing, you are not only searching that couple, your results include every anti pairing post, every Sakura character blog, or discussion. They include every result of Sakura as a character on Naruto.

Plugging in names in Google, even with an “X” between them, is so convoluted in proving anything , it’s a waste. So I’ll end this here: however you guys want to prove pairing popularity, find an accurate way of doing it , cause this ain’t it.
