'Claims'.

It was until the MS and EMS appeared, poor hyugas, they were pushed to the sides.

*Sigh* Sad that Hyuga fans need to resort to filler to make their favourites relevant.

The movie is canon not filler and Osutsuki guy did appear in the Manga,He was the guy that was looking at the fight in the distance, the guy that left the footprints. So appeared in Manga and the movie.
