Why hinata and Naruto dying might be likely

[Sagebee]

If the author really wants boruto and Sasuke to have similar stories it makes sense he would kill both them off

And in one of the movies it was prophesied Naruto would die I'm honestly going to feel worse if hinata dies

 

[Reraru]

No please no. ;_;

 

[Im Still Robin]

Naruto yes Hinata noooo

Kishi don't kill off females like that.

 

[Yeah right]

I can't wait for the day where everyone's expectations will be proven wrong. Naruto and hinata will not die.

 

[Warlocks]

if they want to loss almost all fan then ya why not

 

[Kakooli]

if they want to loss almost all fan then ya why not

Kishi will give them a gaiden manga spin off to compensate

 

[Yeah right]

To counter your point about their deaths being likely.

Boruto is nothing like his father, no deaths needed then.
No Main character has died in naruto, mentors are meant to die so they don't count. Naruto isn't mentoring anyone. Kind of supports sasuke's death possibility.
Women don't die in Naruto who are currently alive in the story and main characters.
People will die in boruto, but they will be no names, or obvious red shirts.
