Poor Hinata. Such a brave and strong girl. She won't die. I know that Naruto will revenge her once.

In some ways Hinata won the battle over Neji can't wait to see Naruto beat him one day.

Hinata was pretty bad ass in this episode...I like how this series gives the female characters as much attention as the males.

I feel bad for Hinata. But Neji was a badass in this episode. It took 4 hidden leaf Jōnin to stop him from killing Hinata.

Neji even had Gaara shaking in his boots at one point during this ep.. Anyone see that?

It's a shame it took Naruto nearly fifty episodes to notice the one person who has believed in him all along..i ship the both of them so much though <3

Also I love how corny Rock Lee's character is.. You can't help but love him and his sensei. :)

Damn poor Hinata :/ she's actually quite a lovely character, I wish she'd had more screen time! Let's hope we'll see her again and let's see how Naruto will get his revenge or not!

and gaara's faces in this battle teaches us a lot.

This Naruto x Hinata relationship is written way better than people give credit for, like seriously. The underprivileged loser who has earn everything in his life the hard way inspires the extremely privileged silver spoon girl who had everything handed to her to finally stand up for herself. Of course Hinata was going to fall in love. This sounds like it could a premise to a Hollywood romance movie about two people empowering each other. I mean this is written pretty well in my opinion.

Yep, best fight so far and HInata already best girl confirmed. I don't even care about the remaining fights in the tournament. And yeah, Naruto and Hinata couldn't be more perfect for each other, both as a ship and as characters. They perfectly compliment each other. Hinata is also the most "human" character in the show so far. She feels the least "shounen-y". That's quite a progress from being just that one shy girl who is mostly know for chanting the protagonist's name every time she's on screen.

Hinata crossed the line. Neji deserves a good beating. Naruto will definitely keep his promise. The next fight will be interesting.

This episode is simply embarrassing, the way this anime treats hinata as if she's a special person even tho she's literally more annoying than long hair Sakura, like is this show for real why is she fighting if she's this useless, Thank god Neji is here to save this episode from the cringe. to think that Hinata gets a special treatment like a baby when this is a fight to the death siltuation is crazy. this is clearly not her place. and honestly this entire match was a disrespect to Neji.

so basically Naruto induced Hinata, who was clearly out of her league, to get beaten half to death. and having done that, he got angry with anyone else but himself. I swear to god, Naruto is the second most retarded character in this show after Sakura. I mean, someone almost died because of you, who the fuck cares if you win or not? fucking self-centered prick

@pickyotaku I realized that Hinata was the only one who didn't allow a fight to the death. while the rest of the fighters nobody cared hahaha
