Reasons why Naruto chose Hinata over Sakura:
>beautiful
>big breasts
>was always nice to him
>big boobs
>from rich family
>big oppai
>do not have anger issues
>big tits
>is very similar to Sasuke: dark hair, special eyes, not loud
>big milkers

No its because the writer decided thats what happens.
>>
Is it true that some Pinkniggers are still seething to this very day??
>>
>>286630546
Actually it was because Sakura didn't love him back. Also Naruto felt the duty to return Hinata's feelings because she always supported him. Reminder that nips don't marry for love but for obligation

It's a dark ending that could be explained away with genjutsu at any time if they wanted to revitalize the series with a fresh timeline. Ultimately everything ended for the benefit of Hinata, and no one else. We're in the bad end timeline. Thet can good end things easily if they decided to.

no one deep down is happy or satisfied with the way naruto ended. and boruto is bad. there's only denial and doujinshi. if the series ended in a truly satisfying way it would have stopped being talked about as much by now. everyone is waiting for something that will never come: closure.

Sarada no longer uses super strength and Boruto + Hima don't use the byakugan offensively, it's pointless to argue which mother would pop the strongest child when anything they could inherit from the mother would be abandoned in favor of the father's more powerful and popular techniques.

>>286633170
He does not have a byakugan , he was using momoshikis byakugan as soon as they came to an agreement to let momoshiki take control over his body.

Both of Naruto's kids basically have Jonin level bullshit at minimum. Boruto is literally treated as a cocky genius and has a rasengan with gravity hacks. Himawari has Byakugan + is the new nine tails jinchuriki. She can already shoot off beast balls like its nothing. Meanwhile, Salad, where Sakura's genes didn't even try, is already going blind from too much sharingan use.

>Skipping the last chapters
What last chapters? I'm pretty sure the only thing that got skipped is chapter 700 that no one actually liked in the first place. All the other shit they talk about like Naruto achieving his dreams, being supported by his comrades never happened in the manga, he got put in coma by his own daughter and Konohamaru had to go in his place. And the "shitty Hinata screentime" they bitch about is literally only a couple of minutes based on the CANON material.

Well cleary he did since they got together.

I get that you like Sakura but you don't have to cope about Naruto or Hinata here.

Naruto settled for Hinata no matter how anyone tries to spin it. Unironically The Last is what cemented this fact. It being approved and considered canon permanently cemented the shallow nature of this relationship. Boruto:The Movie was even worse since Kishi wrote it and it was the gaidenification of their marriage. He never intended the naruhina or sasusaku marriages to be romantic. Without Pierrot filler damage control it's obvious they're miserable but stay together for convenience. The trend has continued since he started writing for the manga again and is back on the Hinata and Naruto are terrible parents train. This is how Kishi intends to write them and I don't think that will change.

He claimed Hinata in The Last was based on his wife despite Sakura being more like his wife. His words and actions are worlds apart and it's time we admitted it. The fact that he is supervising Boruto means he has final say, and ever since he returned the canon marriages have enshittified once again.

>>286639814
Notice how he's reacting to *Sasuke* there, not Sakura, nevermind that the bottom left panel implies peace and understanding towards it when he sees Sasuke not rejecting it. One panel later has Tsunade commenting he's considerate, and then next page turns out he fucked off to eat ramen with Iruka without any heartbreak at all, simply bitching about Sasuke again.

Also Naruto rejected Sakura on screen when he had a "chance". Or rather, there was no chance the second she "got over" Sasuke, since that was the entire link since Chapter 3.

Ikemoto has an actual editor. And Kishimoto once again said he's reading Boruto as a fan. Meaning he has no writing responsibility for it.

It was narusasu fujos who were upset at 700. narusaku shippers weren't really upset until after the last turned the series into objective slop. everything is better if we pretend that movie never happened. naruto wasn't man enough to address hinata's confession, and hinata wasn't woman enough to ask him out during peaceful times. it ruined goodwill for the ship for most of the fandom until after the boruto movie came out and reestablished that naruto's most important bond is with sasuke and so people decided to ignore nh for the most part. hinata was pathetic during boruto movie but at that movie least didn't pretend she was actually a girlboss kween goddess warrior while doing nothing. naruto and hinata made excuses for his neglecting the family for work, but it's not objectively abuse so at least they have that to fall back on.

>>
>>286641125
>Before ch 700 he always said he didn't care about writing romance.
That's not what he said. Kishimoto has openly admitted in numerous interviews that he gets extremely embarrassed drawing romance and kissing scenes. He didn't avoid writing the romance because he didn't want them to be a couple; he avoided it because he felt awkward and unequipped to draw "fluff".

Also, that argument fundamentally misunderstands the genre of Naruto. It is a Battle Shonen, not a Shojo manga. In battle manga, romantic development is almost always secondary, subtextual, or saved for a timeskip. Saying "I didn't want to draw their romantic fluff" simply means Kishimoto preferred to express their bond through the themes of the manga: saving each other on the battlefield (like the Pain arc or the War arc), standing by each other's side, and mutual respect. He conveyed their bond through action and ideology, not through standard romance tropes.

>He claimed Hinata in The Last was based on his wife despite Sakura being more like his wife.
He never claimed so. The only thing he said was that Sakura "acting like" Kushina was a red herring. Furthermore, Kishi got married and became a father during Naruto's run.

>His words and actions are worlds apart and it's time we admitted it.

To be fair they had good scenes together early on. It's just that it had literally been SASUKE SASUKE SASUKE ever since part 1 ended and that doesn't leave much room for fluffy romance. Also Orochimaru took center stage again soon after chunin exam and there was trouble brewing with the Akatsuki so it would've been weird to involve Hinata in this bullshit. Not to mention irresponsible after she almost got killed by Neji.

I wasn't a Naruto yumejoshi, projection-kun. Sakura is someone who I always felt ok with whomever she ended up since she's shippable with anyone. For Naruto that was basically true too. If anything I was just upset that Naruto's feelings were not treated with the respect they deserved. He did like Sakura and he was never allowed to process this on screen. Even his moving on from his romantic attraction to her was only after being told what to feel instead of working through those feelings himself. He became a hollow shell of what he once was afyer shippuden, which didn't happen to anyone else. I actually like naruhina in an aesthetic sense and when I detach it from the shitty writing choices in the two sequel movies and boruto series. But I still think it was unfair to Naruto that he couldn't just mourn his crush and move on naturally. It's degrading to Hinata as well, because it does read as him settling for her. Every other character never had to move on from their first loves. Only Naruto, and he isn't even allowed to admit that he loved her, out of "respect" for Hinata. Sakura always loved Sasuke, so despite that ship not being amazing it doesn't bug me since it doesn't mess up the continuity of her feelings. But Naruto openly adored Sakura for years, and was made to pretend that wasn't the case. If he were allowed to say his love for Sakira changed over time, into that of family, even that would have been preferable. It feels like watching someone repress for the convenience of others, and it was that aspect that I found painful. Even Ino's past feelings for Sasuke weren't erased. She was allowed to move on to someone else while the reality that she once liked him still remains.

What is she, a parrot? What would a second confession accomplish when Naruto has already demonstrated during war arc that he's not taking all this seriously?
>that movie least didn't pretend she was actually a girlboss kween goddess warrior while doing nothing
And the Last did? She did what she could, it's just that Toneri/Tenseigan bullshit was too strong for her and the movie was too chickenshit to make Hamura chakra an actual powerup.
>hinata was pathetic during boruto movie
And somehow she still comes off as a better parent than Naruto.

In verse, Hinata is a 6.4/10. A pawg with a bit of a butterface but very easy to maintain. Sakura is more like a 9/10, Temari is a 7.5 and Ino is at least an 8.
>>
>>286641915

Only because of the eyes. Her face card is insane.
>Sakura is more like a 9/10
Oh please.
>>
>>286641354
It was merely reactionary disappointment after 700. Everyone knew naruhina was more likely at that point. The Last was more of an intentional betrayal, especially when they made it seem like Sakura was the heroine of the movie in the most early adverts for it before the leaks hit the internet. The movie was trash but had ship moments people wanted to see, no matter how forced, so it was hard to recobcile the damage thay movie ultimately did to naruhina's legacy. Hinata suddenly dressing like Sakura was also an odd choice, but whatever. Naruto would easily fall for her if she dressed like her usual self and it was never explained why she suddenly was wearing such tight clothea. But then they both spent most of the mission flirting instead of worrying about Hanabi. Just a shit movie character-wise.

Go ahead and tell us why he feels that way about Sakura again. Think this very carefully and don't use the anime fanfiction for it.

>it does read as him settling for her
Yes, that's why we had him reject Sakura while claiming that he likes Hinata's actual person in the manga.

Also keep in mind, this is essentially a coming of age story. It's common for protagonists in this genre to grow up, and have an increased understanding of love, the world around them, and themselves. In that context it's not at all strange for a crush an immature 12 year old, isolated, and starving for attention, wouldn't be the real thing.

>>286641967
Sakura is the most desired girl in that generation. She’s given a near comparison to Tsunade in spite of her flat chest. Nobody has desired Hinata in the main series. You can prefer her design but it’s clear she is not considered highly attractive.

Literally went from Hinata wondering if she's a bad sister to a "romantic" moment of Naruto confessing. It was hilarious how much this movie avoided genuine character development. Couldn't even do the basic thing of Naruto talking about his mother and Hinata being sad while remembering her own. Not to mention Neji being forgotten as >>286640455
says
>>
>>286641903
>second confession
I didn't say she needed to confess again. I said she needed to ask him out and actually put herself in a position to be rejected. Which to The Last's credit is something she was finally meekly attempting to do even if she never actually got to or needed to because Naruto suddenly magically only had eyes for her and actually did all along
>better parents than naruto
as if. she invalidated boruto's feelings because she was too focused on simping for her husband. naruto had at least made some effort to clumsily acknowledge his son's frustrations with him even if the "just endure" pep talk was stupid. and i still think they're both bad parents, maybe not the worst of all time but still bad.
>>
>>286641983
Lmfao LadyGT, a big artist at the time who was a massive narusaku shipper had a meltdown over it. She and others on a forum even tried to review bomb the movie and pretend like it was a financial failure.

So do Raikage and Tsunade... You know...
>>
>>286642014
there's definitely some incestuous undertones with Neji in the canon series as well

Raikage is gay, which is also disappointing since he's letting the direct raikage bloodline die

Kishimoto had to hype her up somehow, i guess. Her design isn't even that different from other girls, face-wise.

>>286642166
she's disgusted by him in the Rock Lee series, and he's not interested in her either.
>>
>>286642192

>>286642005
I'm pretty fluid actually. I like hetshit and fujoshit and yurishit, it's just that naruto's way of making ships canon is legendary levels of bad. I'm almost impressive how bad, because it requires intentionally avoiding common sense and human logic in social situations. I just stopped coping by pretending it was good. It was actually so easy to write these ships well that I wonder why there was so much effort put into making them this bad.

It's safe to assume he's gay since he has no kids
>>
>>286642262
I'm not comparing. They are both bad. It's not a dichotomy in my mind. Especially since Hinata was invalidating specifically Boruto's anger about the clone.
>>
>>286642299
cute from the perspective of a man in his 30s is different front the perspective of a 12 year old boy.

Possibly
But she outright states she didn't because of her lover dying and never getting over it

I don't care or believe you about forum gossip drama. Anyone can false flag. Regardless of that fans are allowed to be disappointed and express disappointment. Lady GT is a successful pro artist today who has even made official Naruto art, but I guess that doesn't matter since she was a narusaku. I don't think she even cares about this franchise anymore.

Sakura said something a retried teenage girl would say and it’s stuck with the fan base ever since. Meanwhile Hinata was part of a clan with a slave branch that has a seal which she can activate to blow up on command. She hasn’t done anything to help her dead cousin’s wish in the main series by the way
>>
>>286642526
She wasn’t projecting, she knew how important naruto’s dream was to him and didn’t want him to be forced to abandon it. No one figured it out, not even Shikamaru, you can’t blame her for that.
>>
>>286642613
It's still funny to me how Naruto promised to help the Rain to Nagato, only for us to see he did nothing and Rain a literal trash heap.
>>
>>286642450
See, that's good in a way, but she also mentally laughed at him during the exams because she knew he had no chance of passing it, and she also lied to him to get him to stop chasing Sasuke. It shows she fundamentally doesn't "get" him; shinobis are those who endure.

That's the biggest contrast between Naruto's moments with Sakura and Hinata. Sakura tries to get Naruto to stop doing something on the road to his goals; Hinata's moments encourage him to move forward.

>>286642613

>>
>>286642657
shipping stuff aside, She never really got Naruto nor Sasuke which is pretty disappointing. I guess Kishi just didn't care enough but it's really weird and sticks out like a sore thumb given how prominent she is and her supposed attachment to both. In a way she's written as if she only sees things from her perspective which may be intentional
>>
>>286642613
The Hyuuga have dropped the slave mark tradition by the time of Boruto, and Hinata was basically exiled from her inheritance anyway with the role of clan leader heir being passed down to Hanabi because Hinata was such a shitter of a ninja.
>>
>>286642764

Or she just refused to beat up her wee sister.

>>286642803

>>
>>286642764
some people say that the one-shot narrated by Akamaru where a random civilian calls Hinata the heiress means that she actually reclaimed her position off screen and we just never see any of her being clan head, which i find bullshit
>>
>>286642749
>She never really got Naruto nor Sasuke which is pretty disappointing.
It's okay, Naruto never really gets Sakura either and doesn't go much beyond "You really like Sasuke, huh?". 600 fucking chapters in, and the moment Team 7 comes together again, he tells her to stay in the kitchen, not knowing that is precisely the last thing Sakura wants to hear since she actually wants to be useful to the team.
>>
>>286642037
Naruto was still a teenager when he married Hinata. It was an extremely rushed affair and the foundation that was laid for it made it look like a shotgun marriage. I'm pretty sure even the wedding arc confirmed it because she was definitely pregnant shortly after the events of the movie.

Speaking of the Sakura confession, I believe that was the shark jump moment for the series. It was cheap televonela shock drama that added nothing of value to the plot and esssentially served to undo their bond up to that point, probably to give Hinata a leg up, and then nothing ever happened with that either. And even then, Naruto still clearly liked Sakura but it was never addresed except when he joked that she was his girlfriend to Minato. It's terrible writing all around and it was Sakura's confession and Naruto's reaction to it that started it all. Both of their characters kind of died to me after that chapter.
>>
>>286642836
isn’t he proven right by her immediately needing to be saved by him and sasuke, and her only means of distracting Madara being to tank his attack?
>>
>>
>>286642803
she gets clobbered in every training match to the point her dad calls her a failure. even if it was just her holding back, that still speaks to her lack of resolve and emotional strength which would mean she wouldn't make for a good leader regardless.
>>

I'm saying her reaction was immature at best, as if she had regressed back to her middle school timid self.

The fact that he spent his time sulking despite watching her be kidnapped was such a bad look. He was either too stupid to realize it was kidnapping or he just didn't know Hinata or her feelings at all and only liked her after realizing she was hot. He usually chased after people even if they willingly left but just watched Hinata go.

It really isn't when you take into account how the manga keeps throwing you crushes with zero build-up (Naruto/Sakura, Lee, that girl with Shikamaru during the Pain arc, even Minato himself); the audience just accepts them because they are told about them. Viewed in that sense, there's unironically more setup for his feelings toward Hinata in the Chunin Exams alone than for any of the mentioned above.

Hell, both Naruto's VotE flashback and Sasuke's 698 flashback are just a rip-off of Hinata's feelings for Naruto, just with a rivalry spin in place of romance. Even in their meeting in the 5KS, Naruto is mostly using the same wording as Hinata during the Pain assault.

I'm pretty sure he developed a special fondness for her after knowing her kindness and bravery during the Chunin exam. The way he behaves around these two women is like night and day if you pay attention in the manga. This precise moment right here, as soon as those eyes locked it was a wrap.

It's not only that scene; the manga is quite blatant in how Naruto doesn't get her at all unless Sasuke is the topic, or how he never shows personal vulnerability with her. Like the pic related happened after the Pain arc, and you'd think he'd be the one to console her, given that Tsunade is her fucking teacher and he should understand how she feels after dealing with Jiraiya's death. But no, we get the inverse somehow, and Naruto doesn't even listen to her.
>>
>>286642882
I disagree, it was very much in-line with Sakura's character up to that point. she is absolutely the sort of girl to have a martyr complex, and she consistently views herself as both a prize to be won and as being inherently too good for Naruto. her 'confession' is a culmination of these issues. she decides Sasuke is unattainable, so she will "make the sacrifice" to "step up and settle for" Naruto. It is perfectly congruent with how she acts and how she treats Naruto throughout the series. the people blindsided by it were people who projected their own desires onto Sakura, rather than understanding what sort of girl she always was. They wished for her to be like a harem romcom character, when she isn't. Sakura is definitionally an antagonist.
>>
>>286643368
this scene is a mark against Sakura. she isn't the only person in the world who was close to Tsunade, she meant a lot to him as well. he was trying to open up to her emotionally, as a way to relate to her so that they could share their pain together and bond. she rejects it and wishes for him to baby her instead. she's belittling his humanity for her own vanity. Ask yourself, what was her response when Jiraiya died? did she try and relate to him at all? or comfort him?
>>
>>286643498
>this scene is a mark against Sakura
>he was trying to open up to her emotionally
Literally nothing like that happens, did the anime add some weird shit to this? He just says he wants to discuss things with Tsunade, and Sakura tries to cheer him up. Naruto ignores her and we get that monologue about how she's the one that needs comforting and not him. By all means Naruto should understand how Sakura is feeling, and yet he doesn't. Then Tazuna shows up, asks about where Sasuke is, Sakura gets sad, and *that's* exactly when Naruto notices she's feeling down. Stuff like this is why I say Kishi knew what he was doing all along.

>what was her response when Jiraiya died? did she try and relate to him at all? or comfort him?
She failed at it and couldn't relate at all until she experienced something similar, aka Tsunade almost dying to protect the village from Pain's nuke. And Naruto lashed out in anger at Tsunade for sending Jiraiya on a "suicide mission".
>>
Sometimes I feel like the root of the problem with how love is written in Naruto boils down to Kishimoto mistaking envy, desire, or hero worship with love. Kishimoto wrote himself into a corner with Sakura and Hinata that he refused to write himself out of with simple introspection and a conversation. These two exist to react emotionally to Naruto and Sasuke while never getting to be in their inner circles.

Sakura's sacrifce was her being willing to be the bad guy if it meant saving her friend. She was willing to kill Sasuke if it meant freeing Naruto from the burden. She knew she was putting her friendship in jeopardy and the confession distracted from her real plan. It was a gamble and she was going to try to kill Sasuke either way. Her feings toward Sasuke have always been much colder and conditional compared to Naruto's feelings for him, and this chapter was her trolley problem. We know who she would save.

her framing for that was her own pain and suffering. she hated how bad it made HER feel that someone was sacrificing for her. she didn't like being indebted to Naruto.

>>
>>286644039
yes, and Naruto is routinely criticised for projecting what he wants Sasuke to be onto Sasuke. it's a major plot point in the story that Naruto is humbled and gets over his hubris regarding his idealisation of Sasuke. ain't it fascinating how Sakura gets defended by waifufags for doing the same thing?

>>286644075
I did criticise her, specifically her, without regard to other characters or women as a whole. you took it personally and refused to engage with what I wrote because you love Sakura and get defensive whenever someone says something negative about her. as is always the case. Hinata won, by the way
>>
>>286643733
>Nothing to counter it and everything to support it
You could say the same about that filler of her taking pity on Hanabi and throwing the fight. It's even supported by The Last where Hanabi jobs to a puppet while Hinata fights like three of them at the same time.
>>
>>286644200
>It's even supported by The Last where Hanabi jobs to a puppet while Hinata fights like three of them at the same time.

No, it's not supported, all that does is shows that after a time skip Hinata got stronger than Hanabi, but in the past at that point in time she was weaker than her and got she shit kicked in.
>>
>>286644149
Look up covert narcissist. They often act like Hinata and have a victim complex. Being a narcissist doesn't mean evil and I'm not saying she is, but she thinks and behaves very selfishly and she even admits it in the text when she suicide missions knowing she's basically forcing Naruto to watch her die just so she can die without regrets.

Sakura meanwhile has a martyr complex. Naruto has a savior compmlex and can only empathize with others if he can relate to them ("he's just like me!"). Sasuke just has low empathy as a whole but had developed a messiah complex for a while. He might not be a narcissist, he might just be antisocial but now at least knows how to behave.
>>
>>286644245
She fights Neji pretty well Iin the chunin exams. She didn't notice him sealing her tenketsu yes but it's not like Hanabi has this much skill and physically i just don't see her overpowering Hinata.
>>
>>286644178
>Naruto is routinely criticised for projecting what he wants Sasuke to be onto Sasuke
These criticisms are largely framed as wrong and they just don't understand their bond. Naruto's worldview is shown as right in the end and Sasuke submits in the end

Don't see it. She's overly focused on Naruto to the detriment of everything else, that's her problem. I don't think she has any ego.

>>
>>286644337
I'm talking about how Naruto was running his mouth about how he "understood Sasuke's pain" and the like. he openly apologises to Sasuke when they meet during the Five Kage Summit arc, and at no point is he ever shown to have been in the right on that matter.
>>
>>286644424
>You mean the fight where he wasn't even taking her seriously?
He took a hit from her that was clearly enhanced by chakra. That would be enough to drop Hanabi.
>And only ever locked in at the very end
He fought somewhat seriously after she got up the first time. She kept up for some time even with her heart damaged.
>she rage baited him
Another faulty narrative.

We have evidence of Hinata getting her shit kicked it to prove otherwise, I have no idea why you insist to try and prove something that is irrefutably wrong . If someone claimed Movie/Boruto Hinata was weaker than Hanabi they would be objectively wrong based on the fact Hanabi was easily kidnapped by just one puppet, meanwhile Hinata fought multiple ones with little issue,but nothing contradicts Genin Hinata being weaker than Hanabi in the past , hell part of her being as shy and full of low self-confidence was in-part because of Hiachi being disappointed in her for being weaker than Hanabi, despite being the older sister .
>>

You know, i always thought the Last missed the chance to do something really ballsy which is make them fuck, on-screen. No beating around the bush, no inane ship teasing (or rather, it's a culmination of actual mutual attraction, chemistry and tension), they straight-up DO it. Could've been a very artsy and tender scene, could've been portrayed as messed up and awkward with Naruto barely comprehending what is happening and being overwhelmed, Hinata trying to take from life what she can because she knows she's going to die soon and also wants this to be a kind of a "fuck you" to Toneri.

Jesus Christ, NaruSakufag. Here's the simple fact: Naruto's feelings for Sakura were not that deep. They were treated like an afterthought because to Naruto's character, they were an afterthought. They were so utterly unimportant to Naruto that manga never had a single moment showing him contemplating his feelings for Sakura past chapter 3, only hints that he had a non-serious crush on her. Compare that portrayal to literally everybody else's romantic feelings for another character. What the fuck was he going to mourn about? That the one cute girl he liked had feelings for another boy, something he accepted back when he saw her hug him in the hospital room? The stupid fucking few moments where Naruto asks her for dates in part 2, gets rejected, and casually brushes if off is supposed to be some strong indication of powerful feelings? It goes without saying by part 2, it was a bit that served no purpose but to stir some drama. You retards have zero media literacy. That's why Kishimoto successfully baited you fuckers with stupid shit like "sakura acts like naruto's dead mom". Fucking mouthbreathers.

>We have evidence of Hinata getting her shit kicked it to prove otherwise
By Neji, not Hanabi.
>I have no idea why you insist to try and prove something that is irrefutably wrong
Because it's more interesting and thematically fitting if she was being held back by her doubts and kind heart than simply being a shitter. And it removes the undertones of "Hiashi was right" that this arc has otherwise. It simply is a better story if the conclusion is that she has to believe in herself, not that she has to git gud to win back her asshole father's love.

Which the fight with Neji disproves.

...where she loses to him when he wasn't taking her seriously?

>Are you also fine with her surviving like five shinra tensei and landing a hit on Pain in the same episode?
No, but it's Shippuden and that garbage was filled with power and narrative inconsistencies . I always just assumed he used weaker shinra tenseis since he has no reason to go full power on someone like her who compared to him might as well have been an ant , and the hit was literally an accident due to him being distracted by coughing.

>>
>>286645394
if that’s the case why didn’t Naruto just drop his pants against Kaguya?
>>286645400
The Last is rancid dogshit but it’s more like he got to watch a highlight reel of Hinata’s best scenes, and Sakura tried to get them to hook up, and she said he didn’t really love her.
>>
>>286643931
Kishimoto is RIGHT about women.
>>
I've been re-reading the series and it kinda makes sense for Hinata to be his wife.
The one girl who stood by him from the very beginning and have very similar backstories.
Naruto and Sakura's relationship works best as best friends/teammates than some guy yearning after a girl that doesn't love him.
>>
>>286645422
The Last portrays Naruto as not being aware of anything despite them being 19. Hinata was on his radar as much as any of the village fangirls except less because she was a wallflower.
>>
>>286645493
she didn’t really stand by him from the very beginning, he thought she was weird at the beginning of the story and his internal monologue against Gaara makes it clear Iruka and team 7 were his first friends
>>
>>286644751
>Hinata trying to take from life what she can because she knows she's going to die
This really should've been her main arc for the movie, her preparing to die, giving up on life and on Naruto. That and her love for Hanabi. Her getting desperate and depressed because she thinks her sister is going to die or even thinking that she has to kill her for the sake of the world, the impossible choice tearing her apart from inside. Not this "oh they took her eyes, poor thing" bullshit and the lamest most non-threatening villain in existence treating her less as a captive and more like a guest. And certainly not a stupid scarf and "who would you be with if the world was to end".
>>
>>286645495
He was just dense.
>>
>>286645260
>where she loses to him when he wasn't taking her seriously?
He misses a hit in the beginning and then after already disrupting her heart still doesn't put her down immediately despite having no reasons to play with her anymore. Which suggests if she fought Hanabi seriously she wouldn't lose, there's no way for Hanabi to pull the "umm ackshually, i already sealed your tenketsu 35 minutes ago" card.
>>
>>286645559
the scarf was entirely so Kishimoto could convince his wife she wasn’t Sakura and the last 400 chapters of his life’s work wasn’t some cuck fantasy where his brother married her
>>
>>286645495
>Hinata was on his radar as much as any of the village fangirls
615 can go eat a dick it seems.
>>
>>286645539
>she didn’t really stand by him from the very beginning
but she did. Her very first appearance is her having a crush on him and it's been shown that she's had those feelings long before that.
>makes it clear Iruka and team 7 were his first friends
because they interacted with him while Hinata was too shy to do that and was told not too by the clan.
you're just grasping straws anon

My logic is sound. Hinata putting up any kind of fight against Neji puts her above Hanabi, plain and simple.
>>
>>286645539
Hinata stood up for him when he wasn't around but was too shy to approach him herself. Naruto calls her weird but not in a mean-spirited way. he just meant he didn't really 'get' her.
>>
>>286645751
would Tsunade have if they had any real alone time together?
>>
>>286645539
She supports him in the flashback to their childhood days but he was too preoccupied with Saucegay to notice.
>>
>>286645811
Neji was intentionally holding back for much of the fight and even says as much. in fact, didn't he deliberately not use his byakugan for parts of it?
>>
>>286645569
While Hinata was holding Naruto's hand the entire shinobi alliance saw what was in Naruto's heart (It was Sasuke)
Naruto already knew that she loved him because she blatantly told him in the Pain fight. Despite that her feelings were not reciprocated, either during the war arc or the years afterwards.
Naruto also wanted Minato to think that he was dating Sakura, not Hinata. She wasn't even his go-to thought.
>>

Because that wasn't dimes enough for sahara or naruhodou make doujins of it and kishi knows, he followed the industry like the Gorilla Mangaka.

>>286645866
Early on, unlike Sakura she grew, Sakura is still the 16 year old millennial teenager in mentality and behavior even if she is a 36 years old adult now.
>>
>>286645868
Part of it is offscreen shit we never saw like their genjutsu training session, but yeah, the chunin exams were pushed ahead when Kishimoto wanted to develop the characters more. And I’d say the rest of the series suffered because the second part 2 starts you have to have massive exposition dumps about how sasuke is like a brother to Naruto and his most important soul mate and all that
>>
>>286645846
>Neji was intentionally holding back for much of the fight
To the point of letting her land a potentially crippling hit?
>in fact, didn't he deliberately not use his byakugan for parts of it?
No, his Hyuga autism is too strong for that.
>>
>>286645885
It’s a joke but he also tells Minato he hasn’t met any girls yet, Hinata clearly isn’t on his mind
>>
>>286645935
A joke, yes. By then it was already happening regardless of the amount of development.
>>
>>286645902
>>286645920
Remember when Ino wanted to start a world war over Sasuke, the guy she barely spoke 5 words to, who betrayed her village and got her teammates hurt?
>>
>>286645968
Yes. Thankfully Ino barely does stupid shit like that when compared to Sakura.
>>
>>286645965
sure, but the argument was if they hooked up before The Last or not
>>
>>286645899
yeah, when she gets under his skin, causing him to stop holding back. as soon as he goes 'fuck this' he puts her down in three seconds.

>>286645927
yes. like if you were play fighting with a kid and they clocked you in the nuts because you weren't expecting it. at any time you could punt the kid across the room but you don't because you're holding back. but the kid isn't, so he goes full-throttle and gets a hit in. does that mean the kid is a real challenge to you?
>>
>>286645888
>You're literally delusional and making shit up, all the while reality is in your face
What, the fillers? Lmao.
>Through that whole fight the only time he got serious at the complete end and Hinata had to be saved to not get killed by Neji
Because he disrupted her heart by the previous "non-serious" attacks. She was in no condition to fight.
>>
>>286645989
because she’s barely on screen. Being this offended by jokes of Sakura hitting Naruto or whatever is kind of pathetic
>>
>>286645968

It gets to a certain point but it makes sense considering Nardo's childhood and end goal to become Hokage.

Read a fanfic where the Neji v Hinata fight goes exactly the same as canon except instead of Naruto cheering her on she uses the Caged Bird Seal to fry his ass. Pretty kino
>>
>>286645927
actually wait a minute, isn't it later revealed that Neji deliberately deactivated her chakra points so she physically could not hurt him even if she got a hit in? he was literally letting her build her confidence up just so he could slap her down?

>>286645992
>yeah, when she gets under his skin, causing him to stop holding back. as soon as he goes 'fuck this' he puts her down in three seconds

Aside from the obvious butthurt, whoever was the retard who made this didn't understand what xer was reading at all. Kishimoto was able to make light of the pomp of Hokage ceremony precisely because the hat and mantle itself wasn't important. Naruto had already earned the love and respect of the village way back during the Pain and 4th ninja war arcs. Showing he now has a family he can have this kind of interactions with was comparatively way more important. Also
>muh team 7

Again, the argument isn't whether or not she hurt Neji, is that she was able to land a hit on a genius. Which doesn't make her being literally weaker than three year old likely.

Irrelevant, we're talking about Genin Hinata, The Last Hinata is without a doubt stronger than Hanabi, that was never in question

Naruto is obviously not very good at telling what's good for him right away. On a narrative level, the fact that Sasuke was such a little shit was a huge part of Naruto's motivation in part 2 and served to showcase how far he's willing to go for a friend, but when you look at it from an in universe perspective, everyone on team 7 were extremely dysfunctional and shitty friends. Toxic people in an unironical, non meme way.

Which is still a genetic bonus he wouldn't get from any other mother, unless Naruto decided to get frisky with Hanabi. He also has genius level understandanding of ninjutsu, which could have come from either Minato or Hinata's side of the family.

>And the entire Boruto era.
That was dead on arrival

>there are still soldiers defending the first Boruto arc’s romance, a decade later
Impressive considering it isn’t anything special

>too bad it’s written like shit
Better writing than anything in any other Naruto movie, especially characterization wise. But that doesn't matter, you're already moving the goalpost.

>and everything about it was never referenced again
Are you senile or something? Toneri appeared in the Boruto anime, and Kishimoto regards it as part of the canon.

>The Last really fumbled the easiest bag with their romance. All it had to do is show them connecting, helping each other grow, supporting one another.
Those are all things we saw them doing in the manga, though. And it ALSO happened in the movie. I will never stop marvelling at how that movie of all things is such a brainlet filter in this fanbase.

That has always been Ino's thing since her introduction.

better writing than the other movies is the lowest possible bar to clear. The people writing it didn’t even know that Naruto shouldn’t know shadow clones before the first chapter

you are desperately trying to start an argument where there is none. It's OK! you don't need to seethe about pinkshit with imaginary scenarios, Naruto got the better, 2nd choice girl right? no need to be so upset when your girl won guys come on.

Hinata was his first choice though. No matter how many landwhales seethe about it, she's canonically Naruto's first and only true romantic love.

That anon baited you.

>The people writing it
So Kishimoto. He rewrote several scenes and supervised the entire script by his own admission.

>didn’t even know that Naruto shouldn’t know shadow clones before the first chapter
Considering the sheer amount of retcons within the actual manga, that's hardly worth a mention.

Canon pairings are boring as sin, crackships is where it's at.

The only crackship in Nardo even comparable to Naruhina in feel good quality is Naruto x Tsunade.

I don't like Bort myself, but where do the retards that claim Boruto selling a fraction of Naruto's means it's a flop keep crawling out from? That's literally how 99.9% of spinoffs fare, and if anything, Bort has been notoriously profitable for a spinoff with a different main cast that isn't even being written by the original author. Also, cute Mabui for no particular reason.

Naruto should've knocked this heal slut up and rebuild Uzumaki clan
>>
>>286647826
Karin looks infertile as fuck, especially for an Uzumaki, desu.
>>
>>286630546
Because Sakura, regardless of being a charisma and sex appeal void, said one time and another that she didn't love Naruto.
>>
>>286647826
Karin has got every STD know to the Shinobi world. She's a walking red flag.
>>
>>286648090
She's the only Uzumaki bitch left tho...
>>
>>286648111
Orochijackson spoiled her for everyone. There's nothing to be done.
It's not like the Uzumaki have got any flashy unique gimmick to justify saving the clan. They are just beefier niggas.

She’s a bit too prudish and quaint for this look. (Not counting anything off screen anyway)
