Why did Hinata become a ninja in the first place?

[super michael]

Don't get me wrong Hinata is one of the characters I like, but I wonder why Hinata became a ninja. I mean sure Hinata knows Taijutsu and is strong along with a Byakugan but Hinata doesn't seem like someone who enjoys killing like say Zabuza.

If Hinata didn't join the Academy, I'm sure Hiashi would quickly make sure Hinata recieved some kind punishment. The Hyuuga are a prideful clan after all.

As clan heiress it was probably a must for her.

Bonus was she got to be closer to the person she was obsessed with

 

[The Great Second Hokage]

being a ninja isn't about killing people....you do know that right?

 

[thgt89]

She was a ninja because she was forced to by her family. She was never one of my favorite characters because I find her boring and bland but she would obviously have rather done something other than being a ninja. In the end though she got exactly what she always wanted and the role that most suited her which is in the kitchen.

Clan and obligation.

 

[Venomous Cobra]

Same reason the majority of these characters are ninja when they could be everything else while still running after their goals.

 

[Cunning Linguist]

She was born into it. Had no choice. Like being born into the Bloods *****

 

[Aominecchi]

As everyone said already XD
When she was born in the hyuga clan there were expectations from her, so she had to carry the clan's tradition

 

[SIR HERDERP PRESIDERP SDO]

She was the Hyūga heiress so she needed to be one.

There are others who don't enjoy killing and would avoid it at all costs if possible, yet still became ninja, though being a ninja doesn't mean killing is a must.

Still despite her kind heart and forgiving nature she became an excellent Shinobi, even becoming one of the most powerful females currently alive. As Lord Sevenths wife and being the Byakugan Princess, royalty runs through her veins. In the end, she rightfully achieved her goals and is where she belongs, by Naruto's side.

Actually, she was to become a shinobi because Kurenai looked after her when Hiashi threw her out of the Main Branch.

Mind you that most Hyuuga children from the High Branch (or soon to be leaders) do not join the Academy nor the rankings of shinobi. They stay within the branch, I-E - Hanabi.

However ninja in the lower branch, like Neji, become ninja. Those who are deemed useless as well (Hinata).

Why not?

::wut: But she was never clan heiress....Unless you mean before Hiashi disowned her of that title.

If I understand the dialogue between Kurenai and Hiashi correctly, her being given over to be a ninja was her being casted away by the main branch of the family.....seems like the true heir is privately taught by the head of the main family and engages in diplomatic missions (ie.- Hanabi and Hiashi were away on a diplomatic mission during the Pein attack...).....she became a ninja bc there was no other place for her in the Hyuga clan....can't lead the main branch and she's hated by the side branch.

Bcus Kishi forced her
