From her lack of motivation
Hinata does have motivation to make herself better.
Kurenai noted that Hinata has always wanted to train herself and trains very hhard in order to get better. Hinata was shown to have entered the Chuunin exams as a ways of improving herself. She took on Neji even though she knew she would lse, simply because she wanted to better herself. In 633, she stats she wants to keep moving forward [improving] even if it's a single step at a time.
So you're wrong in saying Hinata has no motivation.
or near vehement motivation that simply circled Naruto, as if he was some kind of abstract philosophical entity that might have granted her absolution in all spheres of life
Naruto motivated her to get better, simple as that. What's wrong with that?
to her general disregard for being a decent Shinobi - something that ended up her father throwing her unceremoniously outside his home for a fitter heir.
If Hinata disregarded being decent a shinobi, she would not have continued trying to improve herself after her father decided to stop training her. and yet, she continued to train on her own and with her team mates, and improved her skills. She managed to learn Air Palm, 64 Palms, and Twin Lion Fists, the latter two being highly difficult abilities to master she also expanded her field radius
She is the most stagnant character in the entire manga, only matched in this mediocrity by Minato's banal existence.
Not true. Hinata's been for from a stagnant character in the manga.
Hinata has had development throughout the entire series, starting from the chunnin exams, to her fight with Neji, to her talk with Naruto, to her mission to track down Itachi, to her confrontation with Pain, to her fighting side by side with Neji, to stopping the Juubi, to saving Naruto, to stating that she'll always move forward, to saving the world, Hinata's character has been anything but stagnant, as her charcater is continusly developed with pretty much each of her appearances.
From her turgid Naruto-Kun warbles
How exactly does saying the name of someone make her a bad character?
to her complete inability to trudge forward and find some sort of meaning in one ... or heaven's forbid, any sphere of life.
She became a mother, a decent Shinobi, fixed her relationship with her family, and saved the world from destruction, tell me what more you want. Lol
One fails to find any semblance of decency in her faffing around through the entirety of her life, so that she could finally bed Naruto.
Hinata was never wasting her time "through the entirety of her life". As the manga has said, she has always trained hard after being neglected by her father. Again, I list off, she's learned 64 palms, Air Palm, and Twin Lion Fists.
Her citadel of Shinobi values is, in fact, quite empty and requires a sizable refill after her reason for living is taken out.
Nope, Hinata has a decent citadel of values outside of Naruto... Oh and btw, Hinata's reason for living is not Naruto, such a thing would apply to someone like Kimimaro or Kabuto.
Hinata was willing to put Naruto aside for Hanabi and the World's safety in the Last, showing she cares about the mission's objective, and she also stated that she wants to protect everyone around her in her speech in 615. She's also said that the Shinobi World War must be won at all costs, and yes, while she does give her reason as being Naruto, this shows that she does not neglect her duties as a shinobi, even go so far as to act as a scout for her division after Neji passed out and helped stop the Juubi's attack.
But I'm sure you'll gloss over those.
She was a failure as a ninja; a fact she never remedied till the very end.
And that's why she became a Chuunin, right? Lol
And that's why she learned high-level jutsus, right? Lol
And that's why she was praised by her father and Naruto, right? Lol
And that's why she saved a whole army, right? Lol
And that's why she was given the title of Byakugan Princess by Hamura, right? Lol
And that's why she was able to save the whole Shinobi world, right? Lol
And that's why she still holds the role of next in line as Hyuga's heir, right? Lol
When Neji, a character par excellence that shouldered the burdens of ostracization from the political sphere and a voice in the system was killed for her to enjoy her base interludes and rut to her heart content.
Hinata was also burdened by the Hyuga clan's politics, so I don't understand why you're trying to make it all about Neji, when it's been said time and time again that her role as Heir was a burden to her..... Unless.... this is some piss poor attempt at making Hinata seem like the bad guy for being born into the Main family.
Kishimoto deciding to kill Neji in order to develop NH doesn't make Hinata a bad character ....
At the end, she still barely managed to make a few poor movements to finally complete 64 hits - something her cousin managed when he was thirteen. That is the apex of the term pitiful.
A split second of hesitation
does not equal poor movements. She managed to complete it successfully for the first time there, and thus, now that she knows how to do it properly, she would be able to use it again perfectly. This is honestly such a pathetic tidbit to ***** about, and it further proves what I've alwyas said: That Hinata haters pick on even the most minscule of things to get cry about.
In fact, the examples should begin from her failures in all walks of life, except for one single, pointless thread that kept her going. Goal achieved. Literary Nirvana reached.
What walks of life has Hinata even failed in? she wanted Naruto, she got him. she wanted to become stronger, she got that. she wanted her family to care for her, she got it. she wanted to be a good shinobi, she got it.
What the **** do you see in the manga that she failed in?
She has literally zero value in the manga
If she had no value at all, she would not appear on panel to begin with :/
and is a product of poor literary tropes that always manage to bring a decent plot to its knees.
FFS, you're blaming a character who has barely appeared in 1/7 of the manga as to why the plot sucks?
In fact, she isn't even a confidant(e) - a type of character - for the gibber-jabber spewing, colourfully idiotic hero.
Hinata is confident, very much actually. Look at her interactions with Neji, Pain , Naruto, the Juubi, Toneri, and her general behavior throughout the war arc and in the last movie.
Has she ever supported Naruto in any manner that was meaningful?
Yes. Written exams, chapter 98, Pain arc, chapter 559, 611, 615, 616, 617 and multiple times in the last.
Has she ever done anything as a shinobi, or if I become a bit generous, as an individual with her own sense of Self?
Yes. Entering the Chunnin exams twice, VS Neji, spending time with her family and team mates, going on missions, training to get stronger for her own self, saving the alliance, saving the world, saving Hanabi and retrieving her eyes, and taking care of her daughter....
Has she ever been a decent catalyst to move the plot forward?
Yep. In 98, 437, 615, and a multitude of times in the Last movie.
