The exact age of Sakura Haruno in "Season 4" depends on whether the question refers to the original Naruto series or Naruto Shippuden, as the term "Season 4" can apply to either.
Clarifying "Season 4"
The Naruto anime franchise is divided into two main parts: the original Naruto series and Naruto Shippuden. Different streaming platforms and regional releases may have varying season breakdowns. Therefore, Sakura's age will differ significantly depending on which series "Season 4" refers to.
Sakura's Age in the Original Naruto Series (Season 4)
In the original Naruto series, Sakura Haruno begins her journey as a Genin at 12 years old. The series covers a span of approximately two and a half years before the time skip leading into Shippuden.
- Beginning of Original Naruto: 12 years old
- During Original Naruto Season 4: Season 4 of the original Naruto typically encompasses events from the later arcs, such as the Sasuke Retrieval Arc and subsequent filler episodes leading up to the time skip. By this point in the series, characters have aged slightly since their initial introduction. Therefore, Sakura would most likely be 13 or 14 years old during Season 4 of the original Naruto series.
Sakura's Age in Naruto Shippuden (Season 4)
Naruto Shippuden takes place two and a half years after the events of the original Naruto series. During Shippuden, Sakura experiences significant growth and development.
- Beginning of Naruto Shippuden: Sakura Haruno started Naruto Shippuden at 15 years old.
- During Naruto Shippuden Season 4: Season 4 of Naruto Shippuden occurs relatively early in the series' progression. Given that she starts Shippuden at 15, she would still be 15 years old during Season 4 of Naruto Shippuden.
- End of Naruto Shippuden: Sakura ultimately ends the Naruto Shippuden series at 17 years old.
