Okay, originally this was gonna be a pic of just Ino. But then Sakura emerged. And when I showed this pic to my friend, she added Ino's blush and the random hearts to make this into a more shoujo-ai implied picture, when in fact that was the farthest thing from my mind when I drew this. It was actually based on the preliminary match between Sakura and Ino. By the way, this was my first time drawing Ino. She's not my fave girl in Naruto, but she's still cool in her own way.
