Yes, they are filler.

Anything that has appeared in the anime and not in the manga is filler, unless specifically stated otherwise. Studio Pierrot has no connection to Kishimoto outside of animating his work. The only canon example is "The Last", since Kishimoto wrote the script for it.

thanks ill start watching naruto anime when it gets back on canon. the whole obito getting tnj thing was only supposed to last a couple minutes at best after he told naruto not to come inside him as dirty as that sounds..

They are filler however they corresponded with the canon material nicely from when Hinata and Hanabi were young to the Pein arc to the war arc. It was very well done and shows us Hanabi's character throughout the series which the manga has barely covered. I think it's a good watch if you'd like to learn more about Hanabi and Hinata.
And it shows how Hinata lost her place as the next heiress of the clan to Hanabi before Hinata became a genin

I've seen videos of Kishimoto help with this episode, so it's probably gojing ti be considered canon.

filler is filler. and filler does not matter.. hinata and hinabi were never close not even after the war.

If you get pass being bias and watch it you will see for yourself that the two episodes explain their relationship to one another.
I've already stated its filler move along

but like i said its filler so it never actually happened. someone said kishi "helped" with these two episodes (with no sources mind you) does that make it canon? no if it did rtn would be canon.

It was said to be connected to the movie but I only think that is so to explain Hinata and Hanabi's relationship which it did in the two filler episodes

I agree, with Hanabi's lack of characterization in the manga they are gonna have to rely on the new episodes.

These two fillers were filled with heavy canon material and it fills in plot holes in accordance to the Hyuuga clan, it's kinda showing everything from Hanabi's eyes during Naruto before he became a genin and when he became a genin from fighting Neji to fighting Kakuzu, and to fighting Pein, and Hanabi learns how Hinata chooses to follow Naruto's ninja way
I recommend you watch it not to enjoy it because you seem to dislike Hinata and Hanabi but to inform yourself

Not quite. Kishi made tourne and pakura's anime backstories canon through the databook. It doesn't happen alot, but it does happen.

If the movie references anyone of these two episodes which it probably will considering Hinata and Hanabi's relationship in the movie then it will be 'canon'. However don't watch it, that's ok. These fillers only purpose is to cover Hinata and Hanabi's relationship to one another and to their clan along with Naruto. That's all it is, really just and explanation/backstory filling a sort of 'plot hole'

I agree with this regardless if it is filler or not they where a good two episodes.



to be honest why do people complain the people that watch Naruto for free imo should not complain about a few filler eps I say filler is good it gives some more air time to chars that dont get much.
