What are the common themes in Sasusaku Love and Hate Fanfic?

The love - hate aspect often adds depth to the Sasusaku relationship in fanfic. Love is obvious as Sakura has been in love with Sasuke since they were young. But the 'hate' can come from external factors too. In some fanfics, the ninja world's views on their relationship or the actions of other characters can cause strain. For instance, if other characters try to split them apart, it can create a sense of 'hate' towards those interfering forces.

Conflict is also a big theme. The love triangle creates a lot of conflict, not only between the three characters involved but also within their respective social circles. Friends might take sides, and there could be family interference as well, all of which add layers of drama to the story. For instance, if the third character is from a powerful family, they might use their influence to try and win over Sakura, causing a rift between Sasuke and Sakura at first.

One common theme is redemption. Sasuke often has a journey of redemption in these fanfics, and Sakura's love plays a part in that. For example, her love might be what makes him want to atone for his past actions.

The theme of forbidden love is quite common in this type of fanfic. Characters may hate each other at first because their relationship is not allowed in their society or world. For example, in a dystopian world where different factions are not supposed to interact, two people from opposing factions start off hating each other because of the rules. But as they defy the norms and get to know each other, they fall in love. Another common theme is the role of fate. It seems like fate keeps bringing the two characters together despite their initial hatred, and gradually they can't resist the pull towards love.

One common theme is redemption. Sasuke often starts as a bully and then has to redeem himself for his actions towards Sakura.

One common theme is the strengthening of the Sasusaku relationship. The pregnancy often serves as a catalyst for Sasuke to become more involved and affectionate towards Sakura.

One common theme is betrayal. For example, Sasuke might betray Sakura's trust in some way, like hiding his true intentions or getting involved with something that goes against her values. This leads to the breakdown of their relationship.

Transformation is a big theme. Just like in 'Beauty and the Beast', the Beast transforms not only physically but also in his behavior and attitude towards Belle. And Belle also transforms in her perception of the Beast. Also, power dynamics can be a theme. Sometimes in a love - hate relationship, one person may seem to have more power over the other at the start, but as the relationship evolves, the power dynamics shift. This can be seen in many stories where one character initially dominates the relationship during the 'hate' part but then things change as love develops.

One common theme is the discovery of the true self. In hate to love stories, as the characters start to change their perception of each other, they also often learn more about themselves. For example, in 'Pride and Prejudice', Elizabeth realizes her own prejudices as she gets to know Darcy better. Another theme is the power of forgiveness. Characters have to forgive past wrongs or misunderstandings. Like in 'Beauty and the Beast', Belle has to forgive the Beast's initial rudeness.

One common theme is the power of first impressions. In these novels, the initial dislike often stems from misjudged first impressions. Another theme is personal growth. As the characters go from hating to loving, they usually grow as individuals. For example, they might learn to overcome their pride or prejudice, like in 'Pride and Prejudice'.
