There Was No Real Reason For Killing Neji Off....

[Sonnelion]

The title says it all basically.
My reasons for this is simply nothing really happened afterwards the only thing that happened was naruto gave everyone chakra then shikimaru came up with essentially a useless plan so what's your thoughts.
:scorps:

Spoiler

And I know this is old news.

Kubo was basically bored, he killed neji off for his amusement

 

[CurseSealofEarth]

Well I'm glad Neji is gone. Now Someone else can grow their hair out to a homoerotic level.

I see what you did there.... :snick: :snick:

 

[Fodder#5]

I think that Neji was about as developed as he could get and Kishi felt he had to kill someone. It was either him or Tenten, but Neji's death was more meaningful

 

[Kαmi]

My only guess is that Neji's death was meant for everyone to fight harder after Naruto rallies everyone of course, and/or for NaruHina development

 

[Darth Vader]

Somebody had to die, lol...

 

[foxyladyland]

it was for Hinata to probably have her chance and time to shine again... and

for Neji lovers to enjoy his heart breaking life... and for the parallels of the incedents around his death..

It is indeed the only way he could escape his curse and be free like a bird.. death..

R.I.P. Neji Hyuga

 

[sagedog]

Shock value! I can't see any other reasons. (Bring NaruHina closer. To the joy of NaruHina fans. Lame.) I don't know.

I truly hate kishi for killing Neji off, he had so much ****ing potential, and naruto promised to him that he would erase the lines of prejudice in his clan.

Let me ask you this

What was the reason for neji to remain alive? He had no more development as a character & he was just a background character after becoming part 1's mini "antagonist".

Also somebody needed to die, If it wasnt neji then another one of the k11 would've still died, but who's death would make more of an impact, neji's or kiba's?

Agreed you have a point there.

 

[Kronnic]

maybe to develop Hinata?

I personally feel as if he still could've grew maybe become a mintor of sorts to naruto's and hinata's ,hopefully, ninja children. Also not to mention if anyone shouldve died it should've been sakura she is just a background character all she does is stand there and there are at least 20 other ninja there that could've healed naruto so kishi just picked randomly to me and neji was what the dart landed on.

I believe that another purpose of Neji's death was to demonstrate the limitation of the Byakugan as compared to the other 2 great dojutsus. Think about it, Neji was an unrivaled genius in his clan, and if anything, his Byakugan was the prime specimen of the Hyuuga. All while the Sharingan was shown to have multiple stages, and the Rinnegan is clearly the strongest dojutsu.

Who is Neji? :snick:

Neji was killed to kill Rock Lee spin off
True Story

I seriously doubt that that is true also that exists completely outside of this story for some odd reason not to mention that he rarely even comes out with one since he's to busy coming up with fillers to prolong the series which is another reason why someone died so the next two can just be about shouting,sob stories ,and neji's past.

Neji died to protect Naruto and Hinata.

Neji was the reason that Naruto first acknowledged Hinata. By doing so, Naruto also recognized that he and Hinata were the same. In other words, Neji was a driving force for Naruto's early development in the series, and Naruto likewise helped to develop Neji as a more complex character.

Neji was also the Leaf Villages most gifted person from that generation. He is from the most well-recognized family and has the highest level of skill within that family. His willingness to sacrifice himself for Naruto and Hinata is not meaningless. By contrast, Naruto and Hinata were both failures in terms of skill and ability. In other words, Neji's death represented a changing to the guard and an everlasting bond between Naruto and Hinata.
