this episode sums up hinatas personality:fearless,strong,lo­yal/true,and kind like an angel

@NITESHADOWshouske he remembers her confession and they can communicate with theirs eyes "it's all in your eyes" "look at his eyes you will know"...finally naruto acknowledge her and infront of kiba,shino and neji...dont expect to talk about love in the middle of war and with a clone....maybe after the war...

hahahaha NaruSaku will never happen, it just isnt possible. like really guys? really? she doesn't love him as a lover but more as a friend. Hinata obviously loves him to death and i personally think that he is eventually going to start liking Hinata, Naruto Akkipuden plot possibly...?

@animerox316 filler is something that isn't in the manga. this episode had quite a bit of filler.

[animerox316]

That ep was so not a filler. In fact i believe that ep was really important in order for naruto to beat pein. Hinata confessing gave naruto this reaction that would make him look at her and pay attention to her, so wen hinata nearly died, that whole confession was u could say etched into naruto's brain, enraging him and making him turn into the kyuubi. Which all leads up to meeting minato and beating pein. So yeah.... It wasnt a filler u haters

I really enjoyed this episode and Hinata is my favorite character. But, did anyone noticed that after Hinata confessed her love for Naruto, that her confession was never acknowledged in any future episode.

Just wanted to add, this is a shounen anyway. This is not supposed to be romantic (In the anime) But I trully believe Hinata's feelings for Naruto are fundamental in this scene. It's part of the ideology of pain "Love brings sacrifice, sacrife brings death, death brings pain". Hinata was the example of that for Naruto and in a way was the sacrifice that had to be done so Naruto can relate to Nagato. Idk why Hinata didn't die though. I guess her story will go on, or she is too popular.

I call filler when they put crap inside an anime just because the mangaka is not ready with an arc, and they can't anime it. Most of the dialogues were in the manga anyway. They added the fight so her "death" wouldn't be so futile, at least in my eyes. Also, when Hinata dies, Naruto awakes 6 tails in a second in the manga. He had never been so upset before and we have to remember... Pain killed Jiraiya, Kakashi, friends, destroyed his village, Pa toad. But only Hinata's death broke his calm.

... meaning to the main character. Also, according to the comics Hinatas apparent death is suposed to be the catalyst that sends Naruto into his berserk Fox form. He lays there helples watching while this girl he barely paid heed to fights a hopeless fight because she feels something he never ever saw (regardless of if he wants to reciprocate). And because he never saw it he never had a chance to either reciprocate and convey thats not what he'd want or dissuade her from those reckless feelings

the TV series can't really have as many of these jumps like that in the middle of a major battle like that. Then there's the fact that Hinata (just her character mind you not the couple) has been building up to this confession ever since they were kids. She's gone from this timid little girl barely able to stand up for herself as a human being and now she's transformed into this (mostly) confident woman as an artist it would be a shame to gloss over this coming of age type moment with direct ...

how do people think that episode was filler? what happened in that episode was exactly what happened in the manga?

they did expand on Hinata's struggle to fight Pein, but they've done that with countless fights ever since the series started. TenTen and Temari back in the chunin exam's. the manga fight started then the next frame TenTen is draped limp over Temari's fan. in this one Hinata charges in with her lion's fists and next frame she's face down in an expanding pool of blood.
