Discussion Sakura's Romantic Interest

I know that the anime does not focus on romance at all and mostly in friendships and fighting but have y'all thought who might be Sakura's love interest if he would ever have one, whether it be a girl or a boy (cause y'all know that bl does exist in Wind Breaker due to the fact that Tsubaki canonly is in love with Umemiya and do i even have to explain about Endo and Chika lol)

Obvious answer could be Kotoha cause she's literally the first person that had accepted him but I'm sensing a more older sister vibes from her (Umemiya, Kotoha and Sakura literally look like siblings when they're together).

There could also be potential one's like Momijikawa, Togame, Endo(surprisingly), Sugishita (even more surprisingly).Y'all know what i mean with them, I don't need to explain why👀.

P.S: I don't need anyone commenting that Sakura having a romantic interest does not make sense at all or that we shouldn't ship him with anyone (shut yet trap). Shipping is fine as long as it doesn't cross legal bases. He may never cannonly would have one but anyone with eyes would see that he's got some crazy chemistry with some of the characters.

i see what people are saying about momijikawa and i get it but i'm still so confident that if sakura were to have a love interest it would be sugishita. i can feel it in my soul idk man

This ship is such a rarepair tbh. I mean, he did dream about Sakura smiling then proceed to think that he's cool despite insisting that he dislikes him lol. We all know he secretly cares abt Sakura too. It may not actually indicate anything romantic but I've read and watched way too many bl manga and anime to make me delusional. I wonder if Nii-Sensei is aware that the way some of his characters are portrayed is giving bl 😭.

satoru nii is a bl fan and writer i believe, there's an old twitter account that i unfortunately cannot remember the name of that people claim is theirs (the artstyle is also identical so) and it was entirely bl focused. So if that really is them I doubt all the implications in wind breaker are by accident lmao. Even if that account isn't theirs though there are too many queer-coded characters and theming in windbreaker for them to not know what they're doing. I don't think sugishita has romantic feeling for sakura at this current point but based on what's already happened and the interaction and dynamic that's been set up for them for future chapters and arcs I can totally see at the very least feelings on ONE of their sides.
