One common theme could be exploring alternative storylines where the absence of Sasuke and Sakura leads to different power dynamics in the Naruto universe. For example, other characters might have to step up and fill the void left by Sasuke's power. Another theme could be a focus on Naruto's reaction and how he copes with the loss of his friends, which could lead to character development in ways not seen in the original series.
Some fans write it because they want to explore different plot directions. They might not be satisfied with the original story's development regarding Sasuke and Sakura, so they create a scenario where they're dead to see how the story could change. It gives them creative freedom.
It varies from one fanfiction to another. Some fanfictions might depict Naruto as dead to introduce a new set of challenges for the remaining characters. For example, if Naruto dies, Konoha might be left vulnerable, and characters like Sasuke or Sakura would have to step up in different ways. But there are also plenty of fanfictions where Naruto remains alive and continues his journey, perhaps facing new and even more dangerous threats than in the original series.
Yes, there might be such fanfics out there. In the Naruto fandom, with a large number of fans creating various types of stories, it's possible that some would write a story where Naruto destroys Sasuke in a way that could be seen as Sasuke - bashing. However, these kinds of fanfics may not be in line with the overall spirit of the original work which focuses on their complex relationship and growth.
In the 'naruto is protected by sasuke fanfiction', Sasuke's protection of Naruto could be multi - faceted. Sasuke, being a powerful ninja, would first of all use his physical strength and speed to block attacks aimed at Naruto. Emotionally, his bond with Naruto would make him extremely vigilant. He might sense Naruto's distress from afar and rush to his aid. In terms of strategy, Sasuke would likely plan their movements carefully when they are in dangerous situations, ensuring Naruto is always in a relatively safe position. His ability to quickly analyze a battle situation and react accordingly would be crucial in protecting Naruto.
Well, in some fanfictions, Naruto might be promoted over Sasuke because Naruto has always been seen as the more positive and inspiring character. He has a strong will to protect his friends and the village, and his growth throughout the series is more in line with the traditional hero's journey. His ability to make friends and bring people together could be a reason for his promotion in the fanfiction.
In proper fanfics rather than 'lemon' ones (as 'lemon' implies inappropriate content), Naruto is known for his never - give - up attitude. He's the heart of the story, always trying to bring Sasuke back and protect his friends. Sasuke is a complex character, with his family's past haunting him, which makes him seek power and revenge at times. Sakura, she starts as a girl with a crush but evolves into a capable ninja. These characteristics are often the foundation for fanfic authors to create interesting stories that don't involve improper content.
It might be for Naruto's own good. Sasuke may believe that Naruto is on a dangerous path that will lead to his downfall. So he captures him to keep him from making bad decisions, like sacrificing himself for the village or something similar. He wants to save Naruto from himself in a sense.
