Hyuga Hinata

Uzumaki Hinata (うずまきヒナタ) is a member of Konohagakure's Hyuga clan and Uzumaki clan. Being of a meekdisposition, Hinata struggles to express herself or appear confrontational, traits that caused her to grow up with her family convinced she was not suited for her position as the clan's heiress. From spying on Uzumaki Naruto, Hinata finds both an example to follow her own dreams, and to be more assertive. Including to see that Naruto is the #1 person she has fallen in love with. In her membership with Team Kurenai, she seeks to become a strong kunoichi, including to gain Naruto's affection. She was originally known as Hyuga Hinata (日向 ヒナタ).

Background
Hinata is the elder daughter of the Hyuga clan head, Hyuga Hiashi, and as the first-born, was the heiress-apparent to the clan's main house. From the beginning, because of her position as heiress, Hiashi had high expectations for Hinata and subjected her to long arduous hours of grueling training, leaving little time for Hinata to have any free time such as playing with her younger sister Hyuga Hanabi. Thus just like Naruto, Hinata didn't have a normal childhood. After the end of another conflict between Kumogakure and Konohagakure, one night, Hinata was kidnapped by a head ninja from Kumogakure, who under the guise of striking a peace treaty with Konoha, had actually been sent there to steal the Byakugan. Her father killed the would-be kidnapper to save her, but Kumo demanded compensation in the form of Hiashi's dead body due to having signed a peace treaty with the village only moments before.

This ultimately resulted in the death of Hinata's uncle, Hyuga Hizashi, who sacrificed himself in order to protect his clan and village. This incident was particularly significant in shaping Hinata's early relationship with her older cousin, Hyuga Neji.

On a snowy day while preparing to enter the Ninja Academy, Hinata was degraded by three bullies for her Byakugan. Uzumaki Naruto, who had witnessed the event while sitting on a swing, refused to let them insult her and came to her defense. Since they outnumbered him, the bullies had beaten him up and trampled over his red scarf. Surprised by how much Naruto stood up for someone he didn't know, Hinata thanked him and kept his torn up scarf as a memento of their first meeting. She developed a strong admiration towards Naruto and became one of the few people in the village who didn't reject or shun him. Just like Naruto and her other classmates, Hinata also became the student of Umino Iruka. Even after entering the Ninja Academy, Hinata would secretly spy on Naruto's training to see if he can master the Kage Bunshin no technique, despite the fact that Naruto or the other Hyuga clan members never knew that Hinata had been doing this for some time. Or to secretly cheer for Naruto whenever he was paired up to spar with Sasuke in a sparing match. Hinata would even dress similar to Naruto, by wearing the same orange vest outfit that he wears, but in her favorite to show that she cares about him. This admiration of Naruto later grew into a crush despite warnings from her elders to stay away from him.

After Hinata gained a brutal beating from a sparing match with Neji, both Hinata's father and grandfather began doubting her potential, especially when Hanabi's own prowess began rivaling Hinata's despite being five years younger. Ultimately, it was decided Hinata and Hanabi would duel to decide the future heir of their clan. While the two sisters began fighting on par with each other, Hinata soon had an opening to win, but hesitated in not wanting to hurt her sister, to which Hanabi quickly counterattacked and won the duel. Ultimately, her frailty disheartened her father, which made Hinata lose her position to Hanabi. As her father chose to focus and develop Hanabi, he left Hinata under Yuhi Kurenai's care and protection, deeming her a lost cause due to her lack of drive.

Hinata's strained relationship with her father caused her to lose more faith in herself and she would often spend her time alone, crying. It wasn't until way after she saw Naruto as a road model that her perception changed drastically. Ever since he rescued her from bullies that disliked her eyes by calling her a monster, Naruto felt similar to her since everyone in the village called him a monster and outcast. On Hinata's part this made her happy that she had found someone that she can relate to, and that is just like her. Surprised by how much Naruto wanted to help and believing that she too deserved to be acknowledged, Hinata was inspired. Like Naruto, she ultimately decided to try her best to become strong and never give up, so she could become acknowledged as well.

Personality
Hinata is described as shy, thoughtful, serene, kind, and very polite, as noted from her always addressing people with proper honorifics. She is also very gentle, a trait that Neji and her father used to consider a flaw, and dislikes competing and fighting. She is shown to be incredibly empathetic, and because of her upbringing, she is the third person who identifies with Naruto's painful childhood and desire to be acknowledged. (With the first being Hiruzen, the second being Iruka, the fourth being Shikamaru and the fifth being Sasuke.)

Back in her childhood, as a result of her clan's high expectations as their heiress and her father's gruelling training and him deeming her as a failure, Hinata had become very timid and lacked self-confidence. However, she has shown to be a very hard worker as she continuously strived to change herself for the better, though initially this lack of self-confidence would hinder her on missions. As the series progressed, Hinata became more decisive and more open about her opinions, and by the time of the Fourth Shinobi War, her bravery and self-confidence had extended to the point where she was willing to put her own life on the line for her village, friends, and family.

By the end of Part I, Hinata was able to foster better relations with both Neji and her father and started training with them, as well as growing closer and stronger together as a family. She is especially caring towards her little sister, Hyuga Hanabi, to the point where she was hesitant to hurt her, even during their match to determine the heir to their clan. Two years after the war, when Hanabi was captured by Otsutsuki Toneri, Hinata went to great lengths to save her, such as seemingly agreeing to become Toneri's wife, reluctantly betraying Naruto, and taking back Hanabi's eyes after Naruto defeated Toneri.

Hinata is also the closest to her sensei Yuhi Kurenai, who is not only interested in Hinata's growth as a ninja but also as a person. She knew Hinata's personal struggles and unlike her demanding father, Kurenai tried her best to coach Hinata in ways in which she knew her pupil would best respond. After Hinata was knocked down for the final time by Neji in the Chunin Exams, Kurenai silently congratulated her student's resolve and perseverance. Kurenai was aware of Hinata's feelings for Naruto and encouraged her to confess to him. At Hinata's wedding, Kurenai was proud of Hinata for achieving her dream of being with Naruto. Hinata gets along well with her team-mates. Kiba has become one of her closest friends, and his actions toward her are often motivated by his concern for her, such as when he urged her to forfeit if she was matched against Neji or Gaara during the Chunin Exams. Kiba was also aware of her feelings for Naruto, and he had a tendency to tease her a lot about them. Shino possesses a quiet confidence in Hinata, and will make a point of assuring others when they doubt or worry about her.

Hinata's growing self-confidence mainly comes from her long-standing admiration for Naruto, as she is inspired by his determination to never give up. In the beginning, Hinata was very shy around Naruto, constantly blushing and stuttering when talking with him, but as the series progressed, she became more comfortable around Naruto and her admiration towards him grew into affection, and eventually she had fallen in love with him, despite his quirks and how others criticize him. Hinata also has an unshakeable faith in Naruto, believing that he will one day achieve his dream to become Hokage. During Pain's Invasion on Konoha, Hinata finally confessed her feelings to Naruto and was also willing to risk her life to protect him. After Neji was killed by Obito; Hinata although she was lamenting over her cousin's death, pulled herself together and prevented the Uchiha from shattering Naruto's spirit by reiterating their shared nindo. Her feelings for Naruto and being alongside him have ultimately become her greatest desire, as shown through the Infinite Tsukuyomi.

Two years after the war ended, Hinata was briefly sadden because she thought she had lost her chance to be with Naruto. Ironically, when Naruto began to realize his own true feelings for her, she was oblivious to it like he was to her that it took him accidentally confessing it to her, only for her to realize it. When Hinata "betrayed" Naruto by "accepting" Toneri's proposal it seemed that she had coldly turned on Naruto, but she was actually deeply hurt by her decision in order to have a better chance to save Hanabi and to stop Toneri. Once she reunited with Naruto, she apologized to him for her earlier act, but Naruto replied that he understood why she had to do it and he himself should be the one to apologize. After Naruto defeated Toneri and proclaimed that he wanted to spend the rest of his life with Hinata, she became so happy that it moved her to tears. After several months of dating, Naruto and Hinata got married and started a family together with a son and daughter. Despite Naruto not returning home as often as he used to before he became Hokage, Hinata remains supportive of her husband's dream and job. But at times, misses him a lot and wishes for him to be at home. Even though Naruto missed out on their daughter's birthday, Hinata was still upset at him, but still defend his action due to his job. Hinata continued to love Naruto as she calls him anata and try to save him during Momoshiki's attack. After Otsutsuki Momoshiki's attack, Naruto's schedule lessened and he was able to spend more time at home, making Hinata happier once more.

After becoming a mother, Hinata became more mature and seemingly gained a stricter side, having to remind her children not to run outside barefoot when embracing their father. However, she is not above joining in their fun, such as having a snowball fight with them and her husband. Hinata has proven to be a protective and kind mother, as she protected Himawari during the attack and refused to let Boruto go with Sasuke on a deadly mission. But she has also shown to be understanding and ultimately chose to believe in her son. Even wishing him to have a great day, whenever he is out on a mission.

Appearance
Hinata has dark blue hair (nearly black in the anime) and fair skin; traits that she inherited from her mother. She also has the customary white eyes of her clan, which have a tinge of lavender in the anime. She is usually seen with a timid, shy expression in Part I, but less so in Part II, with the exception of when she is around Naruto. Like the rest of her clan, she possesses the renowned Byakugan which, when activated, stimulates the veins and arteries immediately around her eyes to protrude much more prominently.

During her early childhood, Hinata would usually wear a light yellow hooded jacket, while wearing a dark pink t-shirt inside of the jacket. Where as the hood of the light yellow jacket would be light blue along with wearing dark blue pant, and blue sandals. She would also wear a baby blue long sleeve hooded vest with the hood of the vest being light pink, although it is unknown what color pants she wore along with the color sandals to complete the outfit. On a snowy day in March when she met Naruto for the very first time during their childhood while preparing to enroll at the Ninja Academy with him, Hinata wore a light dark purple long sleeve jacket along with a light green teal yellow stripe scarf, while also wearing a light blue t-shirt inside of her jacket including dark blue pant and blue sandals. When Iruka asked her and her classmates who would be the last person that they would like to spend their last day with if the earth were destroy or if the moon was falling towards earth, Hinata was seen wearing the exact same outfit that Naruto wore when they met Iruka for the first time. Except that her version of the outfit was a light purple hooded vest (with the pocket holders being added to the front of the vest) along with wearing a light blue t-shirt inside the vest. While also wearing dark blue pant and blue sandals.

In Part I, her hair is in a short, levelled hime-cut style just above her forehead, with chin-length strands framing her face. She wore a cream-colored hooded-jacket with a fire symbol on the upper right and left sleeves and fur around the cuffs and hem, with navy blue pants. After earning her genin rank, she wore her Konoha forehead protector around her neck. At the Chunin Exams finals, Hinata wore a long-sleeved, light blue blouse with a high collar, and dark blue pants. While at home, she was seen in the traditional Hyuga garb, consisting of a simple, loose-fitting robe with different colored trimmings, and an under-shirt.

In Part II, Hinata has retained her straight, hime-style haircut, but she has let her hair grow to waist-length. The short strands that frame her face remain, but are now shoulder-length. Her figure has also grown to become much more womanly. She also dons a new attire comprised of a loose fitting, long-sleeved, lavender and cream zip-up jacket with lavender cuffs over mesh armour with navy blue pants and black, low-heeled sandals.

Although she still wears her forehead protector around her neck, its color has changed from blue to black. In one of the omakes, she is seen wearing a beige apron and light blue scarf tied in a bandanna style. In another omake, she is seen in a casual outfit that consisted of brown capri pants, brown sandals, and a dark green, hood-less jacket with a fire symbol on the upper-right side of her chest. The cuffs of the jacket were rolled up to the middle of her forearms; the inside of the jacket was shown to be cream-colored. Hinata had a light lavender blouse underneath. During the Fourth Shinobi War, she dons the standard uniform of her village inclusive of flak jacket. Instead of wearing the forehead protector of the Allied Shinobi Forces, she has seemingly opted not to wear one at all.

Two years after the Fourth Shinobi War, Hinata has changed her previous outfit to a slightly more revealing and form-fitting one. She is now seen wearing a light lavender, sleeveless kimono-style blouse with vertical lines, tied with a dark purple obi around her waist. She wears a pair of short dark navy shorts with thigh-high stockings, revealing parts of her upper thighs, and has changed her regular ninja sandals to black high-heeled boots. Hinata's hair has slightly increased in length and volume. She also no longer wears her forehead protector. While off-duty, she wears a grey long-sleeved shirt underneath a pink shirt, black pants underneath a long cream-colored skirt with pink horizontal stripes, and a pair of brown sandals. She is also seen wearing a lavender hooded-jacket. After Hinata was brainwashed by Toneri during their marriage ceremony, she wore a black long and sleeveless dress with a high collar and matching long gloves. She also wore a black turban with a black and light yellow veil over and yellow crescent moon earrings. When she and Naruto got married, Hinata was wearing a traditional white wedding kimono, her long hair had been done up, and she had been wearing lipstick.

After becoming a mother, Hinata has cut her hair and bangs to shoulder-length. Her attire consists of a maroon jacket with a dark purple shirt and a cream colored skirt. She also wears a pair of lavender slippers. Years later, Hinata has let her hair grow long again, and ties it in a ponytail now. She also dons an outfit that consists of a long-sleeved, collared white shirt, lavender dress, and blue pants. By the time of Boruto's Ninja Academy graduation exam, she had cut her hair short once more. She also wears a light purple short-sleeved jacket with a white shirt underneath, light brown shorts and a pair of purple open-toed boots.

Abilities
Despite being deemed a failure by her father in Part I, Hinata became determined to get stronger, fighting bravely against her stronger cousin Neji in the Chūnin Exams despite losing. Since then, her new-found resolve enabled her to greatly sharpen and develop her skills, ultimately changing her father's opinion about her and becoming a chūnin by Part II. During the Fourth Shinobi War, Hiashi even considered his daughter strong enough to protect Neji now as much as he protected her. Naruto also praised Hinata's strength, recalling how she fought against Pain when he was incapacitated. Naruto seems to hold her prowess in high regard, claiming that she can be "incredibly strong" when she is serious. After receiving Otsutsuki Hamura's chakra two years later, Hinata became strong enough to help Naruto destroy Toneri's Tenseigan that was drawing the moon towards Earth, while once again receiving praise from Naruto for her improved skills. As an adult, Hinata survived a battle with both Momoshiki and Kinshiki Ōtsutsuki in an attempt to rescue her husband, despite her foes' extreme power.

Chakra
After the Chunin Exams, Hinata trained harder to become stronger, developing in a way that took advantage of her excellent chakra control. The results of this training are shown in the anime, when she is training beside a waterfall, where she forms an orb of water around herself. She is later shown forming chakra needles that she uses to attack a swarm of bees. Her new-found chakra control can also emit streams of chakra from her palms to create extremely sharp blades, which can be used to hit any target in her field of vision. Due to her excellent chakra control, Hinata can freely manipulate the size and strength of the chakra blades, effectively allowing her to use this technique to attack and defend. In Part II of the anime, her chakra control has advanced enough to at least match a medical-nin, being one of four ninja selected to perform the Four-Corner Sealing Barrier to seal the Three-Tails. Ino, although trained as a medical-nin, had difficulty maintaining and controlling her chakra to sustain the seal, while Hinata managed with relative ease.

As a member of the main family of the Hyuga clan, Hinata inherited powerful chakra directly from Otsutsuki Hamura. The strength and purity of this chakra is what drew Toneri to her. When she met Hamura on the moon, he transferred his power and will to her to make her strong enough to destroy the Tenseigan, turning the chakra colour from blue to purple. However Hinata's techniques weren't powerful enough alone to destroy the Tenseigan, requiring her to team up with Naruto to destroy it. She also learned to transfer her chakra to others, making them immune to the effects of Toneri's Puppet-Cursing Sphere. Hinata's chakra reserves grew considerably, being able to instantly recharge a drained Naruto with no signs of exhaustion. After further adjusting to Hamura's chakra, Hinata gained the ability to fly from the chakra.

Byakugan
As a Hyuga, Hinata possesses the Byakugan, a dojutsu which grants her a near 360° field of x-ray vision (with the exception of a small blind spot at the upper thoracic vertebrae). She can focus her Byakugan's sight to drastically increase its range in one direction to at least 20 kilometres. Hinata's Byakugan can also see through genjutsu, and help Ino time and pinpoint her Mind Body Switch Technique. In the anime, she can magnify her vision to zoom in on small insects while also in infrared, and even accurately aim chakra needles at fast and small targets. In Part II of the anime, Hinata's mastery of her Byakugan could adjust to light to accurately see Guren's real chakra network and not the reflections created by the latter's crystal labyrinth.

Taijutsu
With the Byakugan's ability to see opponent's chakra pathway system, Hinata specialises in the Hyūga's signature Gentle Fist taijutsu style. It allows her to surgically inject chakra into an opponent's chakra network to cause severe internal trauma with minimal contact. Before she was even a genin, Hinata's skills impressed her fellow clan members, but her father originally considered her weaker than Hanabi, partly due to her unwillingness to hurt her younger sister in their duel. However in the anime after Tsunade became Hokage, Hiashi trusted Hinata to begin Senbon Sparring: an elaborate Hyuga ritual where one must spar nearly one thousand times in succession. She could even use the Gentle Fist to relocate Naruto's dislocated shoulder. By the time she reached adulthood, Hinata had become a master of the Gentle Fist fighting style.

By Part II, Hinata's taijutsu skills improved immensely, and she displays more of her clan's secret techniques. She could use the Eight Trigrams Vacuum Palm to attack targets from a distance, deflect incoming attacks, or together with another user for greater power. In the anime, she learned a halved version of the Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms, the latter of which she used successfully during the Fourth Shinobi War. Hinata also developed the Gentle Step Twin Lion Fists, able to drain an opponent's chakra network with a single touch. She can even combine this technique with the Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms. Two years later, Hinata could defeat some of Toneri's puppets and somewhat pressure a hesitant Naruto while controlled by Toneri. She also created the stronger Eight Trigrams: Twin Lions Crumbling Attack after receiving Hamura's chakra, which could destroy the Tenseigan when combined with Naruto's Rasengan.

Hinata also improved her natural flexibility, creating the Protecting Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms, which utilises her excellent natural flexibility and coordination to both attack and defend at the same time. In Part II of the anime, she also dodged most of Nurari's attacks, despite the latter's elastic body. She also has fast reflexes, narrowly evading Neji by spinning out of the way when they nearly bumped into each other around a corner, surprising her cousin. In the anime, the Genjutsu World version of Hinata can use the Eight Trigrams Palms Revolving Heaven.

Medical Ninjutsu
Hinata has some medical knowledge, being able to make a special ointment to assist with healing wounds. Also, Hinata is capable of using her Byakugan and Gentle Fist for medical purposes, as seen when she relocated Naruto's shoulder in the Fourth Shinobi War. In the anime, Hinata is shown able to use medical ninjutsu, witnessed from her use of the Mystical Palm Technique to heal the injured citizens of the Hacho Village.

Nature Transformation
Hinata is skilled enough to learn two nature transformations, Fire Release and Lightning Release by the time of the Fourth Shinobi War.

Other Skills
Like her team-mates, she is a skilled tracker. She regularly uses this skill alongside her Byakugan to expand her study of the area. Hinata is also fairly intelligent, as she was able to answer most of the questions on the written portion of the Chunin Exams without being shown cheating. In the anime, Hinata was noted by Naruto to be excellent at cooking. She also is very skilled in knitting. In the anime, the Genjutsu World version of Hinata can use the Shadow Clone Technique.

Introduction arc
Hinata was first seen when her class was doing the Transformation Technique, she was seen blushing while roofing for Uzumaki Naruto to do his best. Then she was seen along with the graduating class, including Naruto. She silently hoped that she would be on the same team with Naruto though it was not predicted, much to her disappointment. However, she obeyed being allocated to Team Kurenai along with Inuzuka Kiba and Aburame Shino. Hinata was then seen with her teammates and the rest of the Rookie Nine, while waiting for Kurenai to come pick her up from the Ninja Academy.

Chunin Exam arc
When the Chunin Exams began, Hinata entered with her team-mates in an attempt to change herself. During the first test, she was seated next to Naruto, and when Naruto was struggling to complete the written exam, she offered to let him cheat off her test. However, after seeing the penalty for cheating on a student just behind them, he refused so she wouldn't get in trouble, and because he was too proud to cheat. His inspiring speech at the end of the first test gave her the confidence to not give up, so the proctor, Morino Ibiki, passed everyone in the group who didn't refuse to take the tenth question.

In the second part of the exam, during the Forest of Death, she and her team-mates quickly managed to get their scroll, becoming one of the first genin teams to do so in that exam. When Kiba and Akamaru smelled a second target, they witnessed the Sand Siblings' confrontation with a team of Ame genin. After Gaara killed the Amegakure genin, they hid behind a bush, hoping not to be caught and killed.

In the preliminaries, She saw Naruto's match with Kiba and secretly rooted for Him. She proved Kiba wrong saying that Naruto is not weak,and has a lot of confidence/determernation to win. After Naruto's confidence inlighted everyone in the room,she was happy that Naruto won his match with Kiba.She then gave Kiba and Akamaru before they carry off by the medical-nin ninja. Kiba worned Hinata to withdrawn if she had to face Gaara, or Neji. It was shown on screen that Hinata had to face her much stronger cousin, Neji, in combat. She almost broke down and gave up after Neji berated her on being a failure that could never change. This angered Naruto, and he encouraged Hinata, giving her the strength to fight her cousin. Despite being outmatched and having her chakra cut off, she continued to fight. Neji was surprised when she refused to give up, even becoming enraged when she accused him of being the weak one who fights what he is. He charged at her, but the jōnin in attendance restrained him before he could kill her. When Hinata was taken away to the emergency room, Naruto dipped his fingers in her blood and vowed to defeat Neji. Later, despite her losse, when confronted by her family at the foolishness of choosing to fight Neji, Hinata strongly voiced her conviction in what she did, not ashamed and determined to better herself.

A month later, Naruto, concerned that he would be unable to defeat Neji despite his vow, ran into Hinata. When he began to doubt himself, she told him that he never gave up, which was something she admired, and that she had become more confident after he cheered for her. This gave Naruto the strength and drive to go face Neji. She later watches his match with Neji but, due to the injuries she received from Neji not being fully healed, Hinata passed out during the match, and did not see the outcome of the match. Kiba gets her medical attention from Kabuto Yakushi, who was disguised as an ANBU. She is healed, but remains unconscious for the rest of the invasion of Konoha.

Invasion of Konoha arc
Hinata can be seen at the Third Hokage's funeral mourning his death.

Search for Tsunade arc
In Part II, Hinata remembers the time that Neji protected her when they were younger: Neji was left in charge of Hinata's training as her father Hiashi had left the village on other duties. During the grueling training, Hinata's eyesight would become severely strained and she was put on bed-rest by a doctor in order to recover. Not wanting Hinata to miss the fireworks that she had made plans to attend with Team Kakashi, Neji went to seek out the Eye Medicine Plant that was fabled to grow in the Valley of Judgement, despite being advised against it. Accompanied by Naruto and Sakura, they made their way to the valley, where they were beset upon by humanoid creatures, without faces. Though they initially put up a valiant effort to stave them off, it was becoming increasingly apparent that it would become a battle of attrition until Might Guy and Kakashi make a surprise appearance and send the creatures scurrying away. After explaining why they were there, Kakashi noted that the search for the plant was futile and that they returned to the village. Later, during the fireworks display, Hinata sat on her veranda for the display. In present time, she would reveal to Neji that Naruto and Sakura had told her the lengths he went through to help her, and had always wanted to thank him.

Pre-Shippuuden Filler arc
In the filler arcs, Hinata received more screen-time than many other members of the Konoha 11. In the Mizuki Strike back arc, she was seen Training with her sensei and teammates. In the Search for the Bikochu Arc, Team Kurenai and Naruto are sent to capture a bikōchū beetle that could track Uchiha Sasuke's scent — a mission that Hinata had insisted on. During the mission she develops her Protection of the Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms, and managed to save Naruto and the rest of Team 8 by using it against hostile bug-users. During the episode, Naruto came across a naked silhouette Hinata's, training in a waterfall at night. Naruto, being oblivious, didn't realise that it was her, and talked to Kiba about how he saw a "beautiful girl" at the waterfall the next day, embarrassing her greatly.

In Bounty Hunter Arc, she accompanied Naruto and Kiba to catch a thief, but because someone else caught him (albeit with their help), the mission was considered a failure.

As a result of these two failures, Hinata, Naruto, and Kiba were threatened with being returned to the Ninja Academy if they did not succeed in finding hidden treasure. The group went to visit the Ninja Academy before going on their mission, and Iruka meet up with them. He asksed them if they missed the old days of being students at the Ninja Academy, this scared them greatly. With Naruto responseing that he doesn't want to even come back to the Ninja Academy ever again. The group initially had difficulty working together due to friction between Naruto and Kiba. When they were captured by a group of ninja that could perfectly transform into copies of others, it was up to Hinata to save them and scare them away. She was unable to pursue them because of a leg injury, so Naruto and Kiba did so for her. Hinata later returned, and mistakenly attacked Naruto after he absent-mindedly put down the chest, which had distinguished him from the impostor.

In the Land of Vegetables Arc, she managed to defeat a powerful ninja, Jiga, although she nearly sacrificed her life in doing so. In the Cursed Castle Arc, she helped her team-mates navigate the halls of a strange castle, which was actually a summoned chameleon in disguise, to save a diamyo's wife. In Naruto episode 158, the Ninja Academy Students were divided into teams of three and were assigned to a genin who would lead them on a mission against the other teams. Hinata was assigned to lead a team of three Ninja Academy students; Nobori, Daichi and Matsuri. Her time with them was not covered much except that she was good at setting up camp and was doing better than Naruto.

Throughout the filler arcs, and as was seen at the end of the Part I manga, Hinata developed a much better relationship with her father, who encouraged her to do her best after her near-success in the bikōchū mission. Neji also got along well with her, sparring with her and caring about her well-being. When Naruto left to train with Jiraiya at the end of the series, she watched him leave, but was unable to bring herself to say goodbye to him. As he left, she vowed to become stronger, and to work very hard just like him.

Two years after Naruto left the village to train with Jiraiya, Konohagakure decided to host an early Chunin Exam alongside Sunagakure. Once entering the exams, Hinata and her team-mates were randomly split up and sent to different rooms to take the written test. On a monitor, Shikamaru, as proctor, explained that everyone only needs to answer one question on the test, but their combined score with their team-mates will determine if they pass or fail the exam as they need exactly 100 points to pass. As Neji, who was in the same room as Hinata, calmly assessed the situation, he realized the truth. He then had Hinata perform the Eight Trigrams Vacuum Palm with him to explain it.

After Neji pointed out that sending a specific amount of vibrations (five) through the walls, their team members could catch on and know to answer the question worth 50 points. After time is up, Shikamaru reveals a bonus question, asking which team-mate would be sacrificed to be the decoy to which the answer must be unanimous. Hinata, along with her team, didn't answer as they value their friendship too much. Ultimately, they were allowed to move on because leaving the answer blank was correct as all members of a team would be needed for the second round. However, because there were more participants than expected, a preliminary round had to be issued which involved a race to Sunagakure where the official second round will be, and only the first 30 participants will be allowed entry.

Ultimately, Hinata and her team made it to Sunagakure and qualified for the second round. The following night, as all the participants were ready to eat a largely-prepared dinner, everyone grew nervous about the overly-sweaty Burami ruining the food. To which, the genin all quickly tried to keep him away from spreading his sweat, which resulted in Neji using his Eight Trigrams Palms Revolving Heaven an accidently destroying the food. As tension grew between everyone over the recent event, an all-out brawl began. Ultimately, the late arrival of Fu with her out-spoken desire to make friends and play games caused everyone to lose their desire to fight. The following day, the second exam began. Like the last exam in Konogakure, the teams were each given either a heaven or earth scroll and were required to within three days to obtain a matching set. They were then required to bring the set to main building in the center of the Demon Desert.

Once the second round begin, Hinata and her teammates were seen jumping into their location to begin the second round. Following a simple plan by Kiba, Team Kurenai began talking loudly for all to hear, waiting for someone with a Heaven scroll to come after them. Ultimately, the Kusa-nin team came after them. Hinata faced off with Kazami, using her Gentle Fist techniques to repel his wind attacks. Ultimately, the enemies got Team Kurenai's Earth scroll and retreated. While escaping Hinata's sight and blocking Kiba's smell respectively, Shino set one of his female insects on the enemy to track. While pursuing the enemy, Hinata and her teammates fell into a quicksand pit. Akamaru, however, was able to use his Dynamic Marking to solidify the sand enough for the team to escape. Once recovering, Team Kurenai resumed their pursuit of the enemy.

As Kiba and Akamaru continued following the scent, they soon found it multiplied and scattered throughout the area. When Shino's bugs failed to find the enemies as well and suggested going after other enemy scrolls, Kiba, finding to his annoyance thinking about Naruto again, became determined not to fail. Then realizing that Burami's scent was his clothes from their earlier scuffle, Kiba used it to find the real enemy. While back on the trail again, the enemies ambushed Team Kurenai. While initially overwhelmed, the team swapped out of the predicament with Shino's insect clones, allowing them to regroup. Seeing through the enemies' tactics, Team Kurenai quickly pressured the Kuso-nin before Kiba finished them off with his Three-Headed Wolf technique, earning Team Kurenai a Heaven and Earth scroll. Later, Team Kurenai was caught in a massive sandstorm. Ultimately, her team was rescued by the Suna-nin proctors, and brought to a building to wait out the storm before resuming the exams.

After the storm passed and the second exam was concluded, it was learned that the Chunin Exams were ended early due to controversy happening in the second exam. Instead, it was decided by Gaara that a report on each participant would be sent to their respective village leader for them to decide if they would be promoted. Upon returning to the village, Hinata's team was all promoted to from genin to chunin status by Tsunade. Now happy that she's a chunin, Hinata happily wonder what kind of training that Naruto was doing right now, which surprised Sakura overall.

Sasuke and Sai arc
In Part II, she had attained the rank of chūnin, and was still part of Team 8, renamed Team Kurenai. When Naruto greeted her, she passed out, overcome by the prospect of meeting him for the first time in two and a half years.

In the anime, just when she regained her consciousness, Naruto came to her and asked, very vaguely, to come with him on his mission, telling her "don't say a word and come with me". Hinata misinterpreted the words and promptly passed out again. After this, Hinata asked Kiba if she seemed more grown-up, in the hopes of impressing Naruto. Kiba jokingly teased her, by saying she was still as silly as ever, and then told her that Naruto was behind her, surprising and upsetting her when she discovered it was a lie.

Hidan and Kakuzu arc
In the anime, she can be seen at Asuma's funeral. Later, she can be seen by a river with her team-mates, she's overjoyed to hear that Naruto is working so hard to hone his new technique. She is then reprimanded by Kiba who teases her about why she's blushing, causing her to back away with embarrassment. later Hinata and Neji heard from Ino about how much stronger Naruto had become in facing the Akatsuki by using his Rasen Shuriken Technique, and began inspiring everyone to follow from his example. Hanabi was amazed to watch Hinata do just that, mastering more advanced Hyuga techniques all in the effort of keeping up with Naruto.

Three Tails arc
Tsunade finds the location of Orochimaru's hideout and sent Kakashi along with Team Kurenai to see it. They get into a fight with Guren and Shino sends back one of his crystallised bugs. Then Tsunade sends Yamato, Sai, and Sakura to help them along with Naruto who meets them along the way. Team Kakashi and Kurenai follow Guren and discover that the thing they were after was the Three-Tails. Shizune, Ino, Tenten and Lee are assembled to help with the hunt for the Three-Tails. They all meet up and split into to groups to seal the tailed beast in its own dimension and get Yūkimaru. The Sealing group,Team Three is Shizune, Hinata, Sakura, and Ino. The Guarding group,Team Two is Yamato, Tenten, Kiba, and Lee, while Team One the Fighting group is Naruto, Kakashi, Sai, and Shino.

Team Three tried to use Four-Corner Sealing Barrier to permanently trap the beast in its own dimension. Just as the sealing began to work, the Konoha ninja were interrupted by Guren, which prompted the beast to attack them all. Yūkimaru was able to calm the beast down temporarily, but, after he became tired, the Three-Tails turned its attention to him. Guren and Naruto came to his defense, but were swallowed in the process. With the help of their allies on the outside, they were able to escape, and the Konoha ninja tried once more to seal the beast.

Just when the sealing was almost complete, Yūkimaru, angered by the apparent death of Guren, empowered the beast to break free of its restraints. The Three-Tails went on a rampage, attacking everyone nearby and crushing Nurari, Kigiri, and Kihō. Its attempts to attack Yūkimaru, however, had no effect. It was only through the use of the Wind Release: Toad Oil Flame Bullet that the beast was driven away. The sealing attempt was left to ANBU members, and the remaining Konoha ninja returned home.

Itachi Pursuit arc
Team 8 was recruited to help Team 7 find Itachi or Sasuke. They split up to try and find his trail, and Hinata was added to Naruto's group. They were soon confronted by Kabuto Yakushi and Hinata used her Byakugan to see that one-third of Kabuto had been taken over by Orochimaru's remains. Later, when the squad regrouped, they came across Tobi, who appeared to be blocking their path to Sasuke. During the battle that followed, Hinata took the role of stationary scout, using her Byakugan to follow Tobi's chakra signal. When Tobi left after receiving word that Sasuke had killed Itachi, Kakashi instructed Hinata to locate the site of their battle. They tried to reach it before Tobi, but were too late and forced to return home.

Tsuchigumo Kinjutsu arc
After the mission to locate Itachi failed, she and the rest of the Eight Man Squad were intercepted by Katsuyu, informing Team Yamato of a new mission. The two groups departed with Hinata, her team-mates, and Kakashi returning to Konoha. Hinata is later seen in a flashback by Naruto.

Invasion of Pain arc
During the beginning of the assault of the village, Hinata was with her team-mates, watching the disaster. They later separated with Shino and Kiba going to find their parents.

After Pain destroyed the village, Hinata emerged from the rubble without any major injuries along with her bodyguard, Hyuga Ko. As Ko was not so fortunate, Hinata tried to find him medical attention, but he refused as his only concern was her safety. Once realizing that Naruto was fighting Pain all by himself, she attempted to run to his side, but was stopped by Ko, who warned her she'd only be a burden. Just as she seemingly accepted Ko's words, Naruto was pinned down by Pain. She decided to intervene, despite knowing she did not have the ability to defeat him. When Naruto asked why she would throw away her life, she responded that it was because she loved him, which greatly shocked him.

In the anime, she was able to remove a few of the Chakra Disruption Blades that were on Naruto and even land a blow against the Deva Path. While he did eventually subdue her with Shinra Tensei, he was puzzled why she was willing to fight despite being weakened by his blow. Hinata, crawling near Naruto and still attempting to remove the chakra blade from him, replied by echoing Naruto's words: it is her nindo way. With that response, the Deva Path stabbed her with one of his chakra blades. Enraged, Naruto slipped into his six-tailed form, while a barely conscious Hinata looked on.

As the battle between Naruto and Pain raged on, Team Maito Gai arrived at Hinata's side, and rushed her away from the battlefield and to Sakura's side. When her wounds were healed, Hinata expressed relief over news that Naruto had defeated Pain. When Naruto came back to the village, she shed tears of joy that he was all-right, and was seen later on smiling as the villagers celebrated Naruto's victory.

Konoha History arc
Hinata is first seen in class when Naruto pulls a prank on Iruka. But instead of scolding him, Iruka tells Naruto sit in his seat, remembering the advice given to him from Daikoku. Hinata is seen reading a textbook, and stops reading it for a second. She was also seen when Iruka was about to scold Naruto for sleeping in class, and watches Naruto pull another prank on him. Hinata was next seen when Sasuke did the Kage Bunshin No technique. She watches Naruto trying to fight the real Sasuke, but ends up fighting his clones.

She was surprise when Naruto try to do the technique, but failed with everyone laughing at him. She and Iruka were the only two who didn't laugh at Naruto, after he did the clone technique. Shino admit that Sasuke was better at the technique than Naruto, and Hibiki also admitted it. This made Naruto angry, and he was about to fight the bullies. When seeing Naruto being bullied by the other students because of his failed attempts to be better than Sasuke, Iruka tells them not to bother a kid like him. This made Naruto upset, but deep down inside, Naruto believed that Iruka would accept him as a ninja. Hinata then walked back to class with her class. Later that same night, she watched Naruto practing the clone technique. The next day, Hinata watches Iruka pick Shino to do the shuriken technique, and Naruto gets scared seeing insects come out of Shino's body. Iruka then picks Sasuke, with Sakuara and Ino happily cheers for him. This makes Naruto angry at Sasuke for being popular. She watched Sasuke doing the Shuriken technique, and was amaze. She then watched Naruto do the shuriken technique, and was quiet when everyone laugh at him when he miss all three logs.

In the present, Hinata was seen healing her caretaker, and says that she has always admire Naruto. During the Invasion of Konoha, as Neji revealed to Team Ebisu, an unconscious Hinata was abducted by two ninja from Kumogakure who used the chaos as a chance to accomplish what the Head Ninja of Kumogakure attempted years ago. Though she came to and put up a struggle, Hinata was ultimately saved by Neji, Kiba and her father.

Five Kage Summit arc
Hinata and the rest of the Konoha 11, minus Team Kakashi, decided that, in light of Sasuke's criminal actions, they should personally eliminate him before he can involve Konoha in a war. After Naruto was informed of their intentions and met with Sasuke, he told them to leave Sasuke to him. As several of the members voiced their discontentment with this as they feared that Sasuke's actions would incite a war, Hinata watched on as Naruto once again firmly stated that he would handle Sasuke and also tell them everything when the time was right.

In the anime, Hinata had a conversation with Shikamaru about Naruto when he was in his six-tailed form. She stated that Naruto transformed in order to protect her, but was concerned about his display of intense rage and loss of control.

Adventures at Sea arc
At a meeting held by the Hyuga clan regarding the impending war, Neji is appointed as the commander of the clan on the frontlines by Hiashi which shocked some of the members. Hinata later meets with Kurenai where she is told by Shikamaru that he and quite a few of the other members of the Konoha 11 had seen Naruto since he left the village and that Tsunade was looking for her.

Hopeful that Tsunade had in fact requested her to go on a mission so she could see Naruto she goes in search of her only to be disappointed. She along with the other females of the Konoha 11 and Shiho are later invited by Tenten to a girls night out at Yakiniku Q. Somewhat saddened that he wasn't invited, Choji comes up with the idea of a guys night out at the same place. The two groups talk about Naruto and the past, reminiscing about the first Chunin Exams. The girls are later joined by Shizune and a moderately intoxicated Tsunade. Tsunade attempts to apologise for how she dismissed Hinata earlier but Hinata tells her it was fine as she knew what she had to do. The next day during her training with Neji she tells him that she bore no ill will towards him for her father's decision and that he was the right person to lead them in the war.

Chikara arc

While Guy and Lee fights the Nine-Tails and rest the Konoha 11 fights Kabuto, the worried Hinata rushes towards Naruto and let him lay his head down on her. When Hinata healed Naruto, the Nine-Tails Naruto clone comes to absorb Naruto's chakra. Hinata then stands up and tries to defend Naruto but is sent flying as Neji catches her in his arms. She later joined her comrades in battling Kabuto Yakushi's reincarnated shinobi.

Fourth Shinobi War arc
Hinata was later assigned to the Second Division of the Allied Shinobi Forces alongside Neji, Kurotsuchi and Karui. She commented that she was a little nervous, while Karui told her that war was nothing to worry about. However, she instantly noted that many ninja didn't trust each other due to years of being each other's enemies which worried her.

Hinata's division was deployed to an area where the White Zetsu Army was discovered travelling underground. When Kurotsuchi and Kitsuchi used their technique to unearth the army of Zetsu, she and Hyuga Neji attacked them simultaneously with the Eight Trigrams Vacuum Wall Palm. Later during the battle, Hinata saved Neji from an attack by a White Zetsu clone.

At the end of the first day of battle, after Neji collapsed from fatigue, Hinata took his place alongside Aburame Shino. When Shino told her not to overexert herself as he already had his kikaichu scattered around to help detect the enemy. Hinata thanked him, and thinking about Naruto. She resolutely told him that failure was not an option as this was a war to protect Naruto.

In the anime, she, Shino and Inuzuka Kiba were sent to investigate a suspected breach of the Allied Shinobi Forces perimeter and encountered a cave filled with enemy White Zetsu Army forces. Engaging the forces, Hinata sent out a messenger owl to the Sealing Team and she alongside, Shino, Kiba, and Akamaru, hold off the opposition until the team can arrive and seal the cave. When the two members of the sealing team arrived, they immediately began the process to seal the cave, however, as Team Kurenai escapes, the White Zetsu clones follow, forcing Kiba to attack them. In the process, a lamp was overturned and it lit a trail of oil leading to several crates of explosive tags. With Akamaru unable to douse the flames, the crates exploded with Hinata knocked out as a surviving White Zetsu clone absorbed her to pose as her. After Shino and Kiba snuffed the imposter out, her team-mates found her. Discussing what had transpired, the team's drive to destroy the enemy was renewed after they realized that the enemy had been using Yamato to gain personal intel on them, with Hinata shocked that their foes know of her feelings for Naruto.

The next morning, Hinata's division resumed battling the White Zetsu Army clones. While fighting, she was attacked by three White Zetsu Army clones transformed into Kumo-nin simultaneously, but their attack was intercepted by one of Uzumaki Naruto's shadow clones. After Kiba, Akamaru, Shino and Neji arrived on the scene, Neji demanded that Naruto proved who he is, but Hinata told them that if they looked into his eyes, they would know that he was in fact Naruto. Lamenting the fact that though she wanted to protect Naruto, he ended up saving her instead. However, Naruto saw her sorrow and reassured her that she was very strong, recounting her coming to his aid during the invasion of Pain, which she silently thanked him for. The team then mobilised to finish off the rest of the enemies.

After being informed by Inoichi from headquarters that Naruto and Killer B were fighting the "masked Madara", Hinata and the rest of the Konoha 11 rushed to his aid. As she ran alongside Neji, she thought of Naruto and asked him to wait for her, and that instead of running after him, she'd be walking with him, hand-in-hand, once the war had ended.

Finally arriving at the battlefield, Hinata guided Yamanaka Ino as she used the Mind Body Switch Technique to take control of Uchiha Obito, and sent the would-be fatal attack off-course. Hinata then immediately asked Naruto whether or not he was okay, and later stood with the rest of the Allied Shinobi Forces as they faced their opposition.

Joining her father and cousin on the front-lines, Hinata declared that they would protect Naruto no matter what as he was the key to the final strategy Shikaku imparted to them to stop the Ten-Tails. As several projectiles flew towards them, Hinata used the Eight Trigrams Vacuum Palm to deflect them and watched on as her father later deflected one of the Ten-Tails' arms. When the beast decided to use a pinpoint attack on Naruto, Hinata realised that she would not be able to deflect it in time and was prepared to lie down her life a human shield. However, she found herself protected by Neji as he intercepted the fatal attack. Devastated, as her cousin fell on the battlefield, Hinata openly cried, as he imparted his final words to them and passed away.

After Obito attempted to shatter Uzumaki Naruto's belief in himself, Hinata reaffirmed Naruto's ninja way by telling him that if his life was connected with everyone who shared his beliefs, and have sacrificed themselves for him like Neji had. He should never stop believing in himself, and not to make their sacrifices be in vain. With her words reaching him. Naruto thanked her for staying by his side, and took her hand before entering Tailed Beast Mode. The chakra of which also surrounded Hinata. With this, Naruto prepared to face the opposition again, and signalled to Hinata to get ready.

Amazed by the chakra that had surrounded her, and even further by the fact that Naruto was actually handling such chakra, Hinata later used the Eight Trigrams Vacuum Palm to deflect one of the beast's tails which was headed towards her — a feat which amazed her father who was awed that the simple form of the technique had produced such a powerful effect. She then turned to see Lee mourning Neji's death and listened on as Obito attempted to decry their beliefs to no avail.

Charging towards the opposition alongside the others, Hinata used her Gentle Fist to fix Naruto's dislocated shoulder joint so that he could throw his Rasenshuriken. When the protective shroud given to her and the other shinobi disappeared after protecting them from several attacks including the Tenpenchii, Hinata led the other shinobi to form a defensive line in front of Naruto while he was being healed by Haruno Sakura. She later watched on as the Ten-Tails prepared to attack the division with yet another Tailed Beast Ball which they are saved from by the arrival of Naruto's reincarnated father, Namikaze Minato, on the battlefield.

Following Kiba's proclamation that they were joining the fight after witnessing Team Kakashi's actions, Hinata attacked a mini-clone of the Ten-Tails with Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms. For a moment however, she stumbled after executing only thirty-two strikes, leading her to think that she was at her limit and would not be able to complete the sixty-four strikes. She then recalled Naruto's determination, and Neji's instructions, and found the determination to finish the sixty-four strikes, therefore completing the technique. Afterwards, Hinata prepared her Gentle Step Twin Lion Fists to attack them with and declared her intent and determination to make it through the battle and to forever be by Naruto's side when it ends. She later watched on as the main body of the beast was attacked by Naruto and Uchiha Sasuke, and silently spurred them on. She later watched with her Byakugan as the battle against Obito waged on, and reported to Sakura and those around her, the progress of the battle.

With the situation looking grim as the Alliance was trapped in a barrier with a Tailed Beast Ball-firing the tree, Hinata and the other shinobi soon found themselves shrouded in the previous Version 1 mantles again. He and the others subsequently found themselves on the outside of the barrier, escaping the near-fatal attack thanks to Naruto and Minato's action. She then tried to explain what had happened when an irate Kiba cursed that Naruto could achieve such a feat.

As Obito unleashes the final form of the Ten-Tails, the Shinju, its branches begin decimating the battlefield and absorbing the chakra of countless ninja, killing them. Senju Hashirama has Ino link telepathically to everyone and to rally them. While Hashirama's words fail to inspire anyone, Naruto's senjutsu-enhanced Tailed Beast Mode combined with Ino's telepathy causes his emotions and personal memories to be transferred to everyone. Hinata sympathises with Naruto over the loss of Neji and later watches on in worry as Naruto joins Sasuke on the battlefield. She later looked on as Nara Shikamaru was resuscitated as a result of the combined efforts of Sakura, Naruto and Tsunade. She noted that she wanted to continue to walk beside Naruto so she would continue to give it her all. She later mobilised alongside her comrades and was shocked when Naruto's Tailed Beast Mode mantle surrounded them when they enter Kurama's tails. Using this form and the Rasengan Naruto created, they were able to break through Obito's defences and create an opening for Naruto and Sasuke to attack them. Afterwards, she and her comrades assisted Naruto with extracting the tailed beasts' chakra from within Obito in order to stop the Shinju from blooming.

Though Obito was defeated, Hinata and the rest of the Alliance were assaulted by Spiral Zetsu. As the Alliance struggled against the new threat, Kiba and Ino sensed Naruto's presence on their battlefield. Activating her Byakugan, only to discover to her horror that Naruto was in critical condition with his heartbeat slowly becoming weaker. Rushing to his aid, an exhausted Hinata tripped and fell, all the while worried about Naruto's condition, silently pleaded to Neji to protect him.

Later, when Uchiha Madara finally succeeded with the activation of the Infinite Tsukuyomi. Much like the rest of the world, Hinata fell under the genjutsu's power. As she was being wrapped up by the Shinju's roots, the still-conscious Hinata mentally called out for Naruto. Which he felt, and immediately tried to go save her but was stopped by Sauske. Hinata then became a victim to Madara's genjutsu. Inside the genjutsu, Hinata dreams of being loving couple with Naruto while Hanabi and a still-alive Neji watch from afar.

After Naruto was able to defeat and reform Sasuke, Hinata and everyone else were released from the Infinite Tsukuyomi. She later attended Neji's funeral alongside Naruto and the rest of the Konohagakure shinobi.

Blank Period
Nearly a year after the end of the Fourth Shinobi War. While Shikamaru is on a mission at the Blood Prison, Tsunade sends Hinata and the rest of the Konoha 11, except for Naruto to help Shikamaru with his mission. With the mission being a success, she returns home. Four months after Kakashi officially became the Sixth Hokage, Hinata, along with Sakura and Ino, were one of the many who kept interrupting Kakashi from reading the letter he received from Kahyō. After discovering that it was Naruto who had been badly misinforming the villagers by openly publicising his fantasies about Kakashi's feelings for Kahyō, Kakashi hit Naruto in anger for his prank, but Hinata immediately helped Naruto up and scolded the Hokage.

After the Fourth Shinobi War ended two years ago, it is shown in an omake-manga titled "After the Last" that Naruto and Hinata have been dating. Naruto reads Sai's book about proper human interaction and he learns that men are supposed to pay everything on a date. During his date with Hinata, Naruto takes Hinata to a restaurant and he was shocked that the food of the restaurant is very expensive. Hinata then uses her byakugan and looks inside Naruto's wallet. Seeing that he doesn't have much money, Hinata asks if they can eat at Ramen Ichiraku instead, which Naruto agrees to. After completing a mission one day, Naruto and Hinata went go on a date. While off duty they then encounter Sakura, and they invite her to join them. She declines, but soon realizes that her friends are becoming worried about her heavy workload.

Years later in Konoha, after several months of dating Naruto and Hinata delivered invitations to their friends and Hinata's family to attend their wedding. On the day of the wedding, guests start arriving at the ceremony to be held under the Hokage Monument. Just before the ceremony is to begin, Hinata looking up at the clear sky, thinks of her cousin Neji. She then looks over at Naruto, who himself is also looking up towards the sky, but at his father's face on the Hokage Monument. Feeling overjoyed to finally be marrying him, she becomes a bit flustered when Naruto turns to stare at her. But she gives him her shy gaze and he in turn gives her an embarrassed smile; his once serious deposition turning into one of an innocent young boy. With the ceremony about to begin, Hinata takes Naruto's arm and holds on tightly as her father and little sister approach them.

Epilogue
Years later, on the morning of Naruto's inauguration as the Seventh Hokage, Hinata asked her two children to wake their father up. While having breakfast together, she and Naruto learned that his Hokage cloak wasn't finished yet. So Hinata told him that she will go pick up for him, while insticting that he bring Boruto and Himawari with him to the ceremony. While walking in the village to get Naruto's Hokage cloak, Kakashi approached her by telling her that Naruto is late. She then went to their house wondering if he is still there with their children. When she got there, she found husband unconscious by learning that his chakra points had been hit, but wonder why and who could have done it.

Sometime later while off-duty, she is seen with her daughter visiting Neji's grave on the day of the five Kage meeting. Himawari asks her mother if her late uncle will be happy that they decorated the grave marker with sunflowers. Hinata assures her daughter that Neji will be, since he has the same name as the sunflowers. Himawari cheerfully suggests she wants to visit the memorial site again with her brother.

Later, when Naruto prepared to leave the village to meet with his childhood friend Uchiha Sasuke, about a potential threat to the village. Hinata decided to make a lunch for him to eat on his trip, and sent Boruto to deliver it to her husband.

Upon arriving, they discovered it to have been attacked as well. A distraught Amaru recklessly ran into the village, accidentally setting off a trap hidden by the enemy. In the aftermath of the trap, Shinno was tragically wounded in his successful attempt to save Amaru, and after a few weakened words, it was made apparent through Hinata's Byakugan that he was dying, and eventually appeared to succumb to his wounds.

Shortly afterwards, the three split up to investigate the area. Hinata was kidnapped and was held prisoner, along with the rest of Amaru's villagers. Thanks to the aid of Amaru, they were able to escape the prison, and eventually the flying island itself, riding aboard a flying boat of sorts down to the ground below.

Her personality appears to be similar to Ino.

This results in Sakura being terrified and shocked of how bold and aggressive the alternate Hinata is in comparison to the one she knows.

Then, it moves forward over the fight between clans around Otsutsuki Asura and Otsutsuki Indra, to Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama, and the end of the conflict between Naruto and Sasuke.

Before enrolling in the Ninja Academy, a young Hinata is seen being bullied by boys over her Byakugan, calling her a monster, which causes her to cry. Then a young Uzumaki Naruto shows up and tells them to back off, proclaiming he'll be the future Hokage; however, the boys outnumber him and easily beat him up and destroy his red scarf. Hinata thanks Naruto for his efforts and Naruto lets her keep the scarf since it's ruined, unaware this was when the young girl's affections began for Naruto. Sometime later at the Ninja Academy, Umino Iruka tells his students to write down the name of the person they would want to be with if the world was to end that day. Though Naruto tries to act tough towards Haruno Sakura, she ignores him for Uchiha Sasuke, as do most girls. Hinata is unsure who to write and sees Naruto making a paper plane with his paper and being scolded by Iruka. Naruto states he has no friends or family and the world isn't ending. Seeing this, Hinata happily writes Naruto's name on her paper.

In the present time, two years after the events of the Fourth Shinobi War, at an unknown location, Hyuga Hiashi and his guards are confronted by Otsutsuki Toneri, who asks him for his answer to an unknown proposition, stating the fate of the Hyuga Clan depends on his answer. Hiashi declines his offer and battles Toneri, only to be overwhelmed by his puppet army and trapped in a cave.

In Konoha, Naruto is invited to teach Ninja Academy students taijutsu, much to the joy of the young boys. The lesson is interrupted by the crowd of young girls that greatly admire Naruto, much to his confusion. Yamanaka Ino and her team spot this, noting how popular he's gotten since the war. He has since then received various gifts from villagers from Konoha and abroad from young women smitten with him as the hero of the world. Later, Sarutobi Konohamaru meets with Naruto and wishes to take him to his late grandfather's old storage shed, claiming there is something for him.

Elsewhere in Konoha, Hinata is knitting a red scarf in remembrance of one Naruto used to wear back in the Ninja Academy, so she can give it to Naruto at the Rinne Festival as a personal gift of love when she confesses her love for him. She is later found by Sakura, who encourages her to give it to him and win his heart.

Meanwhile, the Five Kage, Hatake Kakashi, Gaara, Terumī Mei, A, and Onoki, have an emergency meeting in regards to the threat of the moon, which is revealed to be falling out of orbit and onto the Earth. They deduce if nothing is done soon, then the moon will break apart and crash into the Earth and kill all life on the planet.

At night, Hinata finishes her gift for Naruto and attempts to give it to him, but her shyness stops her from doing so. Her little sister, Hyuga Hanabi, playfully encourages her to give it to him while warning her sister that there are various girls after him now as well. She meets Naruto, Sakura, Ino and Akimichi Choji at Ramen Ichiraku. Just as she sits down to eat, three kunoichi show up while one wraps her arms around his and another offers him food. After seeing this, Hinata decides to leave, and Sakura tries to stop and tells Naruto to walk her home. However, he doesn’t understand why he has to given Hinata’s powerful abilities, and Hinata leaves with Sakura chasing after her. Sakura tells Hinata that Naruto is very dense about love due to not having anyone in his life to express it for him and assures Hinata she'll be able to win him over if she’s confident enough.

Meanwhile, various puppets secretly invade Konoha, raid the Hyuga Estate and kidnap Hanabi. On the outskirts of the village, Sai, who has been painting a portrait and noticing the moon’s descent towards Earth, sees Hanabi’s captors flying overhead and gives chase. However, after a quick chase, the kidnappers shoot down Sai with a chakra blast.

Back in Konoha, in front of Naruto's home, Hinata practices her confession, but is interrupted by Naruto’s arrival. She then notices a scarf around his neck and after her stomach growls and Naruto's invitation to eat ramen in his apartment, an embarrassed Hinata runs off, much to Naruto's confusion. As Hinata sits on a park swing, she thinks it was one of the girls that was with Naruto who gave him the scarf and begins to cry uncontrollably, thinking he must be happy that way and that she has lost her chance to be with Naruto. Just then, Toneri appears before Hinata, stating that he came for her. She is rendered unconscious by Toneri, who affirms the strength of her Hamura Chakra as Naruto shows up and gives chase. Naruto is able to save her from the puppet army, but the scarf she knitted is ripped as a result of her chakra being distorted. Toneri leaves a message that the end of mankind is approaching and he will return for Hinata. As he leaves, Naruto and Hinata witness a meteor crash outside the village.

After Hanabi's capture by Toneri, Naruto, Hinata, Sakura, Sai, and Nara Shikamaru are deployed by Kakashi to go and rescue Hanabi. Shikamaru is also given a special clock held only by the five Kage, which apparently is counting down to doomsday. At some point, Toneri “borrows” Hanabi's Byakugan, which he remarks are incredibly “pure”, and implants them in his own empty eye sockets, awakening the Tenseigan sealed by Hamura's descendants over the last millennium. He tells his guards he will go after Hinata, but not till his eyes are adjusted.

As the group follow Toneri's trail, courtesy of Sai, Hinata finds Hanabi's kunai and puts it in her bag where Naruto sees the ripped scarf. They eventually find a cave with a secret path towards Toneri's location. Hinata is unable to use her Byakugan due to the lake distorting her vision for an unknown reason. Naruto proceeds to make sure his scarf is not wet proclaiming it to be special to him, leading Sakura to state it can't be that important and Hinata will feel upset. Sai realizes that the water is incapable of making them wet.

They dive into the lake, only to discover it is a genjutsu set by Toneri. They are all trapped in their various own memories from the past. Naruto recalls his fight with Inuzuka Kiba in the Chunin Exams. Then Hinata's scarf begins to wrap around Naruto and her memories flood into his. Naruto then visits past thoughts once again, except he views it from Hinata’s perspective. Naruto views the earliest memory, the question when Naruto was asked in the ninja academy “Who would be the last person you would spend your days with, if the world were to be destroyed?”. He notices that Hinata wrote “Uzumaki Naruto”, he sees when Hinata gives him the medicine in the chunin exam as Kurenai says “She’s giving her medicine just to you!”, and another memory when Hinata overcame her shyness and tried to save him from Pain and ended her speech by saying “..Because I love You, Naruto!”.

The final flashback he views is a recent memory where he sees Sakura and Hinata talking after Hinata leaving Ichiraku, he notices that she wanted to give him something: her scarf, and this is when he realizes that Hinata has always loved him. Hinata and Sakura's talk about giving him her scarf. Naruto is left utterly bewildered by how much she's loved him for so long. All of these previous memories were genjutsu traps by Toneri, in which Sakura saves them all with her advanced powers of disarming genjutsu.

The team all jump into the dry spring, Naruto shows how shy he is for the first time with Hinata then proceeds to jump into the dry spring. As they descend further, Hinata is found by Toneri who calls her the “Byakugan Princess” and announces his desire for them to be wed. Hinata refuses demanding the safe return of her sister. Toneri then reveals he has taken her sister’s Byakugan and if Hinata agrees to his proposal, he will spare both Hinata and Hanabi’s lives and, eventually, return Hanabi’s Byakugan. While Sakura, Sai and Shikamaru fight against The Gatekeeper of the spring, Naruto comes back to protect Hinata and fights Toneri only for the two to realize “Toneri” is a puppet. The puppet Toneri explains he will return in person to hear Hinata's answer. Now knowing Toneri is targeting Hinata, Naruto proclaims he will not let Hinata out of his sight, now having realized his own romantic feelings for her as well. With this, Hinata notices Naruto isn't wearing his scarf anymore.

The team arrives outside the cave seeing an artificial sun inside the moon. They make their way to an abandoned shinobi village of the Otsutsuki clan. As Naruto and Hinata spend more time with each other, Naruto begins to slowly realize that he has fallen in love with Hinata and she remains humorously oblivious to his feelings. As they search the ruins, Shikamaru realizes Toneri’s plan and that he is the orchestrator of the falling moon. With Hinata’s arrival, a monument of the clan awakens for her revealing a puppet, calling her the “Byakugan Princess”, shows Hinata a vision only she can see of Hamura. Hamura awakens her latent Hamura chakra, transfers his own and orders her to stop Toneri as only she can destroy the Tenseigan as she is the “Byakugan Princess” and that Toneri, a member of the Otsutsuki’s Branch House, has misinterpreted his Celestial Decree. When Hinata awakens, she tells the others what she saw was “nothing”.

You then see both Hanabi and the real Toneri, with bandages over their eyes. Shikamaru’s team then finds a new world with a massive ocean and a floating world with an artificial sun. They split into teams as Naruto and Hinata find Hanabi’s special kunai, Naruto wants to ask about something but Hinata ignores it. Hinata works on a new red muffler for Naruto.

Later that night, Naruto follows Hinata to a pond, seeing her knit away at the scarf. Naruto consoles her when Hinata thinks she's a horrible big sister since she just knits a scarf rather than spending more energy to find her sister. Naruto disagrees, recounting the amount of time and energy she’s been putting into finding Hanabi. When Hinata thanks him for his reassuring kindness, Naruto accidently reveals his new found feelings for Hinata greatly shocking her. However, the tender moment is interrupted with Toneri’s arrival who Hinata freely goes with after giving the scarf to Naruto. Confused and heartbroken at Toneri’s declaration that Hinata is about to become his bride, he gives chase only to have his vast chakra drained and turned against him. The resulting explosion of Naruto’s vast chakra destroys a massive part of the Moon and destroys Hinata’s scarf yet again leaving her heartbroken at Toneri’s assault on Naruto forcing him to put her into a slumber.

Back on Earth, the various hidden villages defend themselves against the crashing meteorites as they protect civilians all over from Toneri’s genocidal assault. As Rock Lee and others fail to completely destroy a huge meteor, Sasuke arrives and saves Konoha from certain doom revealing he rescued Hiashi. Sasuke declares he’ll defend Konoha since Naruto is away and gives the Konoha ninja a much needed break.

Back on the moon at Toneri's palace, Toneri marvels at Hinata's beauty as she sleeps. Wanting to know more about her, he reads her mind only to see that she's only thinking about Naruto, much to his confusion and jealousy. When she awakens, she finds her sister safe but even while in her comatose state, Hanabi grabs Hinata silently begging for help. Toneri arrives and gives Hinata a vast army of puppet maids to do her bidding and gives her a tour of his palace. Here, Toneri tells her about his clan and how they used the Tenseigan against their enemies and, seeing mankind using Chakra as a weapon, he intends to wipe them out for as per Hamura’s Celestial Decree. While sharing dinner, tea and even showing the Mausoleum of Hamura with Hinata, Toneri request Hinata make him a scarf like she made Naruto and orders her to never question his plans to destroy Earth again. While Toneri rests from his inability to control the Tenseigan, Hinata attempts to destroy the Tenseigan Alter as per Hamura’s request only to be stopped by Toneri. Angered by her “lies and betrayals” Toneri destroys her scarf in a jealous rage proclaiming he knew fully well she made it for “him”. He then proceeds to seal her soul into a portrait so her brainwashed body can still go through with their wedding.

After a three day recovery process, Naruto wakes up and becomes depressed about Hinata's choice, leading Shikamaru and Sai to scold and make fun of him in hopes of reigniting his drive only to fail. Shikamaru takes Naruto to Sakura revealing that she was severely weakened due to saving his life in hopes she can heal his heart (something he admits Sai and himself are nowhere near capable of). Sakura talks with Naruto and helps him realize that Hinata truly loves him, stating she noted the feelings he had for herself were just another way to compete with Sasuke but Naruto's feelings for Hinata are far more genuine and deeper than they ever were for herself and Hinata’s love for Naruto is far more genuine. With new-found strength, Naruto leads the charge into Toneri's moon base.

Naruto's team invades the palace and they split with Sai and Sakura going to rescue Hanabi, while Shikamaru and Naruto go after Hinata. As Shikamaru holds off Toneri's puppets, Naruto arrives just in time to disrupt the wedding angering Toneri. To humiliate Naruto, Toneri forces the brainwashed Hinata to attack him but he manages to remove the orb in her body. Annoyed with his constant interference, Toneri attacks Naruto but his latest Tenseigan pulsation allows Hinata to break free from Toneri and lead Naruto to the altar of the Tenseigan. With their combined effort, they are able to destroy the altar, revealing numerous Byakugan's sealed inside and halt the moon from plummeting to the Earth. After regrouping with everyone, Sakura presents Hinata with the remnants of her scarf, to which Naruto reveals he knows it was for him after seeing her memories. Despite being ruined, Naruto happily takes it, which leaves Hinata on the brink of tears of joy. Just then, Shikamaru notices the clock isn't stopping for some reason.

Back on Earth, A and Killer B use a massive chakra cannon to destroy the meteor's heading for Earth and upon learning of the moon still approaching, intends to use the cannon to destroy the moon. Kakashi is then told by Hiashi that he is certain that Toneri took his daughters to the moon and others announce they see Kurama battling on the moon confirming Hiashi’s theory. Despite now being informed that Naruto and his team are on the moon, A wishes to destroy the moon regardless. The other Kage are against this (angry that A once again has a weapon of mass destruction secretly hidden away) and order him to wait an hour as they feel Naruto can stop the moon given his actions during the previous war.

At the destroyed Tenseigan altar, Toneri, furious at Hinata and Naruto’s actions, has managed to unlock the Tenseigan, allowing him to continue his Celestial Decree. He summons a giant golem that battles with Kurama, and unlocks the Tenseigan Chakra Mode allowing him to capture Hinata and throw her into a cage so she can watch him kill Naruto who he has grown to despise, a huge duel ensues. Toneri reveals his newfound power to slice the moon in half. Near the end, Naruto grasps the last remaining shred of the scarf Hinata had made for him and seemingly redirects and channels his chakra shroud into his the scrap in his right fist and delivers a devastating punch, which is enough to depower Toneri and pin him against a wall. With his defeat Kurama uses this chance to destroy the statue with a Tailed Beast Ball and Hinata retrieves Hanabi's Byakugan. Despite his defeat, Toneri refuses to give up and summons all the Byakugan eyes around him to grant him power to kill Naruto by draining his chakra, but Hinata stops him from absorbing his Chakra any more. Toneri is unable to maintain his form and is about to burn in the sun until Naruto saves him.

With the hour up, A prepares to fire the cannon, but B refuses to kill Naruto and the others much to A’s frustration. Luckily, Kurama writes on the moon a "Mission Complete" symbol (much to the fox's annoyance as he admits his penmanship is terrible), signifying everyone safe and the disaster averted. A global declaration is made that Naruto, Hinata, Shikamaru, Sakura, and Sai have saved the planet from extinction.

Hinata takes Toneri to the sight of Hamura's soul and reveal the truth to him. Seeing this, Toneri apologizes for his actions and chooses to stay on the moon to atone for his sins and promises that “the moon will never approach Earth again” despite Hinata offering Toneri a place on Earth. Later, Hinata asks Naruto about his scarf he was using earlier to which he reveals it was knitted by his late mother, Uzumaki Kushina, for him before he was born. Which is why he was so protective of it, leaving Hinata relieved and embarrassed for her actions. As they all head home on Hanabi’s request, Naruto proclaims to Hinata he wants to spend the rest of his life with her moving her to tears. As they leave through the portal they then see past memories of their childhood and life in green bubbles.

We then see Hinata and Naruto in the same hand held poses as they begin to get younger through past memories, we see current Naruto and Hinata then Shippuden Naruto and Hinata, Pre Teen Naruto and Hinata and finally young Naruto and Hinata running hand in hand. Then Naruto asks Hinata to grab a hold of him as he says he wants to fly above and be with him as he uses a Rasengan to break him out of the dry spring cave. Naruto catches Hinata and they fly out of the cave, leaving the others behind at the exit as they burst into the sky. While floating in the sky with the moon behind them, lean in and share their first kiss. The last words before the credits are of Naruto saying “Hinata…. Thank you.”

The movie ends with a series of flash-forwards of Naruto and Hinata's wedding. Naruto has his rose put on by Iruka, all of the males of the Konoha village are wearing suits and the females are all wearing Kimonos. Including picture of Sasuke continuing his journey. Then it further flash forwards to Naruto and Hinata having a peaceful morning with their two children, Uzumaki Boruto and Uzumaki Himawari who playfully order their father to play with them instigating the happy family into a snowball fight.

Boruto movie
On the day of her daughter's birthday, Hinata and Himawari were cleaning Naruto's study when Himawari found Naruto's old jacket, making Hinata smile when she showed it to her. They picked Boruto up to get ready for Himawari's birthday party, but Naruto sent a shadow clone due to him being to busy with work. The clone ended up dropping the birthday cake and Boruto was angry at Naruto for missing his daughter's birthday party, and lashed out about this to his mother. Although she missed Naruto and wanted him home more often. Hinata tried to remind him that Naruto's job as Hokage was important to the village, but Boruto wasn't swayed. He retorted that his grandfather wasn't alive when Naruto was a child and Naruto must have been lucky to never have parents, which saddened Hinata, who told him he was lucky to have a father here. She then met with Sasuke at her front door as he asked if Naruto was home and she told him he was still at his office.

When Boruto returned home one evening after passing the second round of the Chūnin Exams, Hinata and Himawari congratulated and she was relieved to find that her son was unhurt. However, she became concerned when Boruto seemed to be acting strangely and went straight to his room after telling Himawari not to disturb him. Later on, she attended the third round of the Chunin Exams with Himawari to watch Boruto face Nara Shikadai and was proud when it appeared he won, but Naruto surprised her when he asked her to use her Byakugan on Boruto. Hinata realized that Boruto had cheated throughout the fight and expressed disappointment.

She fled the arena with her daughter as Otsutsuki Momoshiki and Otsutsuki Kinshiki attacked, but Hinata witnessed Naruto sacrifice himself to protect Boruto, Sasuke, and Uchiha Sarada from Momoshiki's jutsu. She tried to save him to no avail and was left injured. Which led to Sakura to healed her. When Boruto decided to join Sasuke and the other Kage to rescue Naruto, Hinata initially refused to allow her son to go somewhere so dangerous. However, when she saw Boruto wearing Naruto's old jacket, she was reminded of Naruto when he was young and decided to believe in him.

With the rescue a success, Hinata had breakfast with her family. When she tried to mend Boruto's torn jacket, she was told not to do so by her son as he thought that it looked 'cooler' that way, pleasantly surprising her. She wished both her son and her husband to have a good day alongside Himawari as they left for their respective work.

Uzumaki Naruto
During their childhood, Uzumaki Naruto first met Hinata while they were preparing to enroll at the Ninja Academy. Despite not knowing her, Naruto refused to let three bullies insult Hinata and came to her defense, but was outnumbered and easily beaten, with his red scarf trampled over by them. Surprised by how much Naruto stood up for someone he didn't know, Hinata thanked him while Naruto let her keep his scarf since it was ruined.

Unlike their peers who ostracized Naruto while growing up in the Ninja Academy, Hinata instead admired him, for she was inspired by his enthusiasm and determination to never give up. Hinata even adopted Naruto's nindo of never giving up, so she can also be acknowledge as well. She was one of the first to identify Naruto's painful childhood and his desire to be acknowledged, and she fiercely believed that he would one day achieve his goal of becoming Hokage. Hinata's long-standing admiration towards Naruto later grew into genuine care and affection, eventually leading her to fall in love with him.

Because of his socially ostracized childhood, and even though Naruto was oblivious to her feelings for him. He held Hinata in high regard because of her desire to change herself and be acknowledged, something that he could relate to. Naruto also held high expectations of her, such as during the Chunin Exams, he declined her offer of copying her test due their risk of being disqualified, disbelieving at first that she would allow him to cheat off her. Later, he defended Hinata from Neji's contempt and even vowed with her own blood to defeat Neji in her place. When Naruto, for the first time, revealed his growing doubts about the match and his own abilities to Hinata, she reassured him that he never gave up because he always had the strength to overcome his own failures. Naruto gratefully thanked Hinata for bringing him out of his depression, and he said to her that even though he had thought of her as a shy and quiet girl, he really liked a person like her. As Naruto departed to train with Jiraiya, Hinata watched him leave, but was unable to bring herself to say goodbye to him. As he left, she vowed to become stronger, and to work as hard as he did.

During Pain's invasion on Konoha, Hinata immediately came to his aid after she saw Naruto being pinned down by the Akatsuki leader. Worried about her safety, Naruto demanded Hinata to stay away from the fight, but despite knowing that she stood no chance against Pain, Hinata refused to leave and confessed her love and willingness to protect Naruto, even at the cost of her own life. Left speechless upon hearing her confession, Naruto instantly erupted into a rage after he saw Pain stabbing Hinata, allowing Kurama to take control and continue the battle. Later, once Kurama was suppressed, Naruto became very distressed at the thought that he might have killed Hinata and the villagers while he was under the fox's influence, but was brought to tears of relief upon learning that she and the others were still alive. After her wounds were healed by Sakura, Hinata shed tears of joy and relief over the news that Naruto had defeated Pain and he safely returned to the village, and was later seen smiling as everyone celebrated Naruto's victory.

During the Fourth Shinobi War, after one of Naruto's shadow clones helped Hinata and the Second Division defeat a group of White Zetsu clones, she began to lament the fact that though she wanted to protect Naruto, he ended up saving her instead. However, Naruto saw Hinata feeling down on herself and reassured her that she was strong, recounting her coming to his aid against Pain, to which she silently thanked him for.

After Neji died protecting her and Naruto from the Ten-Tails and almost falling victim to Obito's rhetoric, Hinata reminded Naruto of their shared nindo, to bring him back from the edge. With her and Kurama's aid, Naruto's self-confidence was restored and he took Hinata's hand, thanking her for staying by his side before transferring Kurama's chakra into her. As the battle progressed, the Ten-Tails prepared to attack the injured Naruto directly, Hinata led a group of the Shinobi Alliance to protect him as Sakura healed his wounds. Then later during the war, after taking down one of the Ten-Tails' mini-clones, Hinata continues to motivate herself to keep moving forward so that she could forever be at Naruto's side. However, Hinata succumbed to exhaustion as she lost the remainder of her chakra and stumbled on debris before she could reach him, tearfully praying for his safety.

Later, when Madara successfully activated the Infinite Tsukoyomi, everyone, including Hinata, was caught in the Shinji's roots, she mentally called out for Naruto. He sensed this and tries to go save her. But he is stopped by Sasuke, who tells him to be patient. When she was finally caught in the Genjutsu, she dreams of her and Naruto as a happy loving couple, while Hanabi and a still-alive Neji watch from afar.

When Naruto defeated and reform Sasuke. They release Hinata first from the genjutsu then everyone else was released from the genjutsu after her. Then Naruto was seen standing side by side with Hinata during Neji's funeral.

Two years after the war, Hinata had fixed Naruto's old red scarf and planned to give it to him as a personal gift of love at the Rinne Festival to once again confess her feelings for him, but encountered problems such as her own shyness and the new competition with the many young women for Naruto's affections due to his new-found popularity. When Hinata finally made an attempt to give it to him, she saw Naruto wearing a scarf his late mother had knitted for him, which made her sadly back down as she thought it was given by another girl. When Otsutsuki Toneri kidnapped Hanabi, Naruto, Hinata, Sakura, Sai, and Shikamaru were deployed to go and rescue her. While on the mission, they got caught in the Gatekeeper's genjutsu ball trap, which caused them all to drift into a sleep and dream about their own memories. However, inside the trap, the red scarf accidently got out of Hinata's bag and began to wrap around Naruto, allowing her memories to flow into his. Left utterly speechless after witnessing how long Hinata had loved and acknowledged him, Naruto became fiercely over protected of her, and even shy in her presence.

When the team arrived in an abandoned Otsutsuki clan village, Naruto saw Hinata knitting the red scarf and realized it was for him, to which he decided to stop wearing his late mother's scarf. As he spent time interacting with Hinata, Naruto began to experience a special kind of happiness he had never felt before and realize that her being was irreplaceable and essential to him, and eventually, in their moment alone, he confessed his feelings to her, which left her speechless.

However, driven to save her sister and to destroy the Tenseigan, Hinata gave the red scarf to Naruto and said goodbye to him as she left with Toneri who suddenly appeared to them, much to Naruto's shock and confusion. As Naruto was chasing after them, Toneri attacked Naruto by draining almost all of his chakra, leaving him unconscious along with the scarf being destroyed. After recovering three days later, Naruto fell into a great depression and came very close to giving up on everything, but it wasn't until Sakura consoled him about how deep and unwavering Hinata's feelings truly were that his strength had returned and set out to rescue her. The team then stormed into Toneri's castle, with Naruto arriving just in time to disrupt the wedding ceremony, angering Toneri. To humiliate Naruto, Toneri forced the brainwashed Hinata to attack him, but he managed to free her from Toneri's control, to which in the process, saw Hinata's recent memories, including her attempt at making a replacement scarf, only for it to be callously destroyed by Toneri. Hinata apologized to Naruto for breaking his heart, to which he replied that he already forgave her. As Naruto and Hinata regrouped with the rest of the team (including Hanabi) after the two destroyed the Tenseigan, Naruto then happily took a small remnant of Hinata's scarf, saying that even in its ruined state, he would cherish it, which left her on the brink of tears of joy by his kind gesture.

After Naruto defeated Toneri and saved the shinobi world, Hinata asked Naruto about his scarf he was wearing earlier, to which he revealed it was knitted by his late mother, leaving Hinata relieved. He then reiterated his love for Hinata and even proposed, with the two sharing their first kiss upon returning to Earth. After several months of dating, Naruto and Hinata got married and started a family together with a son and daughter.

Since Naruto finally became the Seventh Hokage, Hinata showed her loyalty to him by going to get his unfinished new Hokage cloak for him. She even makes bento lunch boxes for Naruto to eat which he often miss out due to his job. Since they got marry, Hinata always refers to Naruto as darling. Hinata also shares her fond memories of her husband when Himawari found Naruto's old jacket. She also remains supportive of Naruto's dream and job, despite missing him dearly whenever he is not at home. This is proven true when she even defended him in front of Boruto when he couldn't make it to Himawari's own birthday party. During Boruto's match against Shikadai, Naruto sit next to Hinata and Himawari instead of sitting next to the other four Kage. When Naruto was kidnap, Hinata try to save him but end up getting injured. Hinata even briefly started to panic over her failure to save her husband and whether or not he was dead, but she calmed down once Sasuke confirmed that Naruto was still alive and watched as the Uchiha, her son and the other 4 Kage decided to go save him.

In the end Naruto is saved which led to Boruto finally respecting her husband along with his job, including what it means to be a shinobi. Along with finally taking his training seriously just as she and Naruto did. Including that Naruto is home more often. Which had made her happy that she got to see her husband more, including that he had finally reconcile with Boruto. Due to this, Naruto and Hinata have a normal family moment together at the end of the movie, where Naruto and Boruto ate breakfast together while Hinata fixes up Boruto's jacket. She even waved goodbye to Naruto when he was leaving for work and told him to have a good day.

Haruno Sakura

Sakura also seems to encourage their love for one another, as she is seen to support both Naruto and Hinata. She attends the wedding of Naruto and Hinata.

 * Hinata is a playable character in most Naruto video games. In later instalments of the Naruto Clash of Ninja series, she is also playable in an "awakened" form. In this form, her clothes are similar to what she wore during the Search for the Bikochu Arc, though the form itself is not based on the events of that arc. Awakened Hinata has a personality similar to Neji's during the Chunin Exams, arrogantly challenging opponents and boasting about the power of the main branch of the Hyuga clan. While in this form, she is also able to use techniques such as Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms and Eight Trigrams Palms Revolving Heaven.

 * This is further extended in an omake in Naruto: Shippuuden episode 165 where Sakura accuses Hinata of trying to become the main heroine of the series because of her massive popularity, much to her confusion. Naruto and her are the main characters in canonical movie, Naruto Shippuuden movie 7, since it is a love story about them.

 * In a series of interviews from 2015, Kishimoto revealed he had planned on Naruto and Hinata getting together since the middle of the manga. Even commenting that Naruto and Hinata were meant to be since she acknowledged him even before Iruka. Including that she had the ability to see beyond his reputation, and see the true person inside him. Not only that, Kishimoto confirmed that Hinata was his favorite female character during an interview with Viz in October 2015.
 * Like Sakura, Hinata's initial role in the manga was entirely different. Where's Sakura wasn't intended to be the heroine, Hinata wasn't intended to be a ninja. In an original concept art, Hinata was depicted in normal civilian like clothes rather than a ninja's.

 * Naruto and his late mother, Uzumaki Kushina, has their own "red thread of fate". The red thread of fate, also referred to as the 'red thread of destiny', 'red string of fate', 'red string of destiny' and other variants, is an East Asian belief originating from Chinese legend and is also used in Japanese legend. According to this myth, the gods tie an invisible red string around the ankles of men and women who are destined to be soul mates and will one day marry each other. Often, in Japanese culture, it is thought to be tied around the little finger. The two people connected by the red thread are destined lovers, regardless of time, place or circumstances. This magical cord may stretch or tangle, but never break. This myth is similar to the Western concept of soul-mates or a twin flame.
