Ok, so.

A lot of Naru/Hina fans have, as of late, begun to lose hope about the likelihood of their favorite pairing coming into canon.

As a Naru/Hina fan who still has hope, let me try to instill some of it back into you lot.

Now, I'm not just one of those people who go around saying 'NARU/HINAIANINA FOREVAAAA!!!11!!! NOTHIN WILL EVR COME BETWEEN THEM EVER!!!!'

I look at facts. Contextual clues, if you will.

And I've come across a couple that point towards Naru/Hina eventually happening.

Firstly, let me just say that Naruto WILL eventually confront Hinata about her confession. I'm sure even Naruto/Sakura fans will admit to this. It's just simply not in his nature to ignore something like that or push someone aside. Secondly, it would be a FUCKING HUGE PLOT HOLE if he didn't.

Also, many fans are saying, 'but it's been so long since she confessed! He will never speak to her '. WRONG. WRONG WRONG. Yes, it has been months. IN OUR TIME. Not in Konoha. I'm pretty sure only like, a couple of days, maybe a week has gone by. It most definitely has not been months, people.

Another piece of evidence simply relates to the theme of the entire series, or at least one of them. It is the one regarding dreams coming true (a.k.a Naruto->Hokage). Hinata's dream is clearly to earn Naruto's affections. That is why she has been training so hard for them. If she never ended up with Naruto, that would go against Kishimoto's theme. It would prove that striving towards your dream won't actually help you.

Next, and perhaps most importantly. Sakura. Now, Sakura is Hinata's main rival for Naruto's affections. We all know it will either end with Naruto/Sakura or Naruto/Hinata. However, Sakura is well aware that Hinata loves Naruto. She ADMITS this here-->[link] Ok, so. Let's realize something here. Although she is portrayed as a bitch in many fanfics and such, in actuality, she really isn't (at least in Shippuden). Do you honestly think she would try to STEAL the one thing she knows Hinata has had her heart set on for years? What would be the fucking point of even having her think about how Hina loves him if it won't play a role later in the series?
There's another piece of evidence concerning Sakura I've found, but I can't find it at the moment. >.< It's buried somewhere in the like, 300 conversations I've had with my friend this summer. xD

Also, I should say something against the argument that Sakura loves Naruto because she hugged him in that chapter a month or so back. ...Um, no. She and him are FRIENDS. And TEAMMATES. They have been for years. Sakura is like Naruto's best friend ('cuz let's face it: Sasuke is a douche. >:I) Of course they are going to talk with each other, smile in each other's presence, and maybe even hug. Seriously. I've seen Naruto/Sakura fans declare the couple canon when she was knocked down in a fight and Naruto pulled her up. Um LOLWHUT? They are teammates people. xDDD (I mean no disrespect to Naruto/Sakura fans. I'm sure Naru/Hina fans have said some pretty crazy stuff before, too. )

And finally. I really think Naruto's crush on Sakura has waned. That was so 12-years-old. He said he liked her, yes, but it was never really a pronounced love. There was never any SERIOUS implications. It was only just 'omg will you go on a date with me?' 'NO! *hit*' 'ok, lol.' It was for COMIC RELIEF.

Ok, I've ranted for long enough. I hope I've restored some hope in y'all. If you read through all that, you get a gold ! You are a super reader! ...lol wtf. xD


p.s Sai/Sakura isn't looking too bad of a pairing in my opinion. >.>

Ok, there are two things that have recently come to my attention.

The first:

DISNEY now owns part of the American licensing of Naruto. WHAT. THE. EFF. I am soosososososoososososososo angry. Why, oh WHY did they need to get their grubby paws all over Naruto? It's not even made for the age group Disney targets nowadays. ;_; The anime will be RUINED now, for sure. Way to go, Viz.

I really can't say more on this, I'm just so angry. At least Disney can't paw all over the actual, Japanese manga.


Second, I just heard that CN is canceling Chowder. Now, I'm not sure if this one is true or not. However, I'm not really surprised. CN enjoys screwing itself over by removing anything worthwhile from their network. -_-

Ok, so...I've been doing a little thinking about the Naruto manga lately (big surprise?) and I have a bit of a prediction. I feel that eventually (probably in about 5,896 more chapters) Naruto and Sasuke are gonna have another huge fight. During this fight, they will both deliver fatal blows to one another. They will each be lying on the battlefield, dying, when Sakura shows up. She will only have enough time and/or chakra to heal one of them, and she'll have to choose between Naruto or Sasuke. And I think she will choose Naruto (main character isn't dying, kthnx). So...what do you think? Yea or nea?

Ok...Naruto 457 is an embarrassment. I have never seen Naruto more OOC in my entire span of following this manga. Falling onto his knees, BEGGING AND CRYING for the Raikage to save Sasuke's life? I can remember a time when he would have punched the guy in the face while shouting obnoxiously. Guess the good old days of Naruto are finally coming to a close.

Also, still no Hinata/Naruto interaction (I'm not even saying this as a N/H fan. IT'S A FUCKING HUGE PLOT HOLE).

And the flames of the pairing war are only getting fueled. I can't even understand if I should be saying 'Uh-oh' for Naruto's response to Sai's question about Sakura or what. Annnnnd now Sai might be entering into the pairing wars as well. *headdesk*

Also, Sasuke. I'm becoming just plain SICK of hearing Naruto bitch about him all the time. I'd rather see the stupid stuff Sasuke's up to in actual panels than to hear the word 'Sasuke' come from Naruto's mouth one more time. Give. It. Up.

Pick ten random people, they don't have to be real:

01. Sam (Lord of the Rings)
02. Hinata (Naruto-Shippuden)
03. Raven (Teen Titans)
04. Bender (Futurama)
05. Italy (Hetalia)
06. Kabuto (Naruto)
07. Princess Jasmine (Aladdin)
08. Starfire (Teen Titans)
09. Naruto (Shippuden version)
10. The Warden (Superjail)

Yes, I actually put the names on slips of paper and drew them at random so as not to be influenced. Nerd, yes I know.

Some ancient artifact from Azarath, I'd hope.

You're stuck in a house that's on fire. What does 4 do?

You're about to marry number 10. What's 1's reaction:
Um, he wouldn't give a crap?

You got dumped by someone. How will 7 cheer you up?
MAGIC CARPET RIDE.

Put me in jail or perform some freaky tests on me.

Number 1 is all you've ever dreamed of. Why?

Number 9 is too shy to face you and confesses his love by sending an email. Now what?
I'D TELL HIM TO GTFO THE INTERNETS.

You spot 10 kissing 1. How do you react?
I'd stop smoking crack. Holy crap. xD

You notice that 3 and 4 have been inside that hotel room for MORE then a few hours. What are you thinking?
