Timeline, Basic

“It is all a matter of time scale. An event that would be unthinkable in a hundred years may be inevitable in a hundred million.”
– Carl Sagan, Cosmos –

I’ve made a basic timeline of LLW without any spoilers to make it easier to under stand the chronological order of the story. Look at the diagram below to make it easier to understand. More detailed timelines (that include spoilers) will be added as the story continues including one about Sakura’s pregnancy as well our favorite couple’s relationship

A _________ B _________ C _________ D _________ E _________ F

Year One aka the Overture to Destruction Arc
Timeline: A to B, Ages: 12-13, Chapters: 5, 9,
This year starts from the moment Sasuke and Sakura defect from Konoha and the first year they spend in Oto. It focuses on how they became the people we see in the later chapters, it mostly chronicles their friendship, budding romance as well their respective relationship’s with their teachers and occupants of Oto.

Year Two aka the End of Dreams Arc
Timeline: B to C, Ages: 13-14, Chapters:
Like it’s predecessor this year deals with effects living in Oto had on Sakura and Sasuke’s psyche’s and how they became the people they are. Another point is that both Sakura and Sasuke are are going puberty through in this arc meaning we deal the usual teenage angst.

Year Three aka the Wicked Game Last Arc
Timeline: C to D, Ages: 14-15, Chapters: 2
This arc deals with the couple’s or rather Sasuke’s growing feelings for the other, as well as their rapidly changing relationship. Another point are the darker parts of Sakura and Sasuke’s personalities, as each day spend in Oto causes their own moral codes to decay.

Year Four, part I aka the Trust & Betrayal Arc
Timeline: D to E, Ages: 15-16, Chapters: 10, 12, 8, 1, 4, 3, 6, 13, 7
First part of year four which takes place when Shippūden would have begun if it were canon till the Danzō’s death. From here on the pace of story speeds up severely and a lot happens in a few short months

Year Four, part II aka the Shades of Reality Arc
Timeline:E to F, Ages: 15-16, Chapters: 11, 14
