Oke so I will be explaining in this thread why I think that princes Hinata, who we all love, is a bad developed character. Before I get started with the brief analysis, I would like to emphasize that I do not hate Hinata and that I do not support ANY Naruto couples (well maybe SASUNARU :p )

Hinata development

Unlike other side characters, Hinata had the tools to become a good character. She is heir of one of the noble clans, a clan with inner conflict, Main and branche family problems. She is in love with a boy that doesn't seem like her back. She lacks leadership skills, She is not the strongest Hyuga, She doesn't have her own ninja way and with a ninja way I mean a plan or resolve to reform her clan.

Hinata was a promising character, atleast she had a backstory. But she hardly progressed and to me she became another boring girl who is created to drool over some guy.

1- She never steped her game up as the future leader of the Hyuga clan, she wasn't the leader in her squad. Yes she B.tch slaped Naruto when he almost got TnJ by Obito and gave a speech here and there but thats not leading a group.

2- She doesn't care about the future of her clan, we never saw her think of talk about how/or she will reform her clan culture. It was Naruto that promised Neji that he will reform the Hyuga clan ones he becomes Hokage. I understand that Naruto is the main character, but reforming the Hyuga clan should be Hinata's job, she is the heir isn't she?!

3- Combat wise, she never surpassed Neji in my opinion.

4- All she cares about is loving Naruto, holding his hand, protecting him, giving her life for him and so on.

I understand that Kishimoto is bad with female characters and that Sakura, Ino, Karin have the same problems. But the reason why Hinata bugs is is that I expected a lot more from her.

Thats it guys, please be respectful in the comments.

1. Hinata was never meant to be the leader of the Hyuga clan. Since she was a girl, she was determined to be lesser in value than Hanabi to her father, so Hanabi is the Hyuga heiress.

2. Hinata's development is following Naruto's Nindo and dynamically becoming less and less shy about social life and in combat. Overcoming her fears and being a brave girl is what saved Naruto from being captured by Nagato.

She is probably the only progressed female character of the show. And lets face it her taijutsu is below average. She doesn't have any redeeming qualities about her except that she loves Naruto. I personally hate her as a character but I would pick her over Sakura any day.

Yea, it makes her a relatable character.

Glad you agree =D

It's quite sad that she is displayed in such a way..

Personally I do not see a lot of difference between them, but Sakura is worst because Sakura is a main character. One could say that Hinata is just a side character.

I just love my beautiful Hinata <3

What do you mean with ''she was never meant to be the leader of the clan'' Hyuga clan always have the first born as the clan leader, thats how Hinata father became head of the main branch.

So Hinata life goal is to obsess about Naruto's well being, stalk him and be his cheerleader?! WAAAW

Previous chapter She gave orders to the Alliance She snap Naruto out of His Funk and amazed Her Father who always believed Her to be weak. In that last few Manga's She has spoken more than in any previous Manga's out laud.

I think she is No good either. It seemed like she could have more dimentions as a character, but it is downgraded to a stereotypical submissive fantasy girl whose only goal in life is a single man, which is cutting off her dimentions. Her everything revolves around Naruto, for Naruto, being with Naruto making him happy etc., there is nothing much other than that.
And her shyness and her reasoning only being the man she loves making her appealing for many people in her fanbase.
She is a weak combatant. That's fact. Not because she did not surpass Neji, he is actually a too strong of a guy; she is overall weak; she does not have impressive set of skills battlevise, No intelligence feats; she never shown actual thoughts during her battles, only seeing further with byakugan. People overrate her battle skills as much as they overrate her one dimentional personality.
One of the counter arguements is 615 (which is my least favorite chapter, it was a disgrace to Neji to forcing a pairing over his death) she tnjed and stuff, but right after Neji 's death, she started to think about how it felt to holding Naruto's hand. Before that; she did not even close his eyes for the sake of respect to dead one...
Her only possible future is being Naruto's wife; and that's the thing she wants anyway, i highly doubt if she ever gives two sh*ts about her clan's way and future, nothing in manga has shown anything like that, when she was going to battle she was only thinking about holding Naruto's hand...
