As mentioned earlier, the relationship between Hinata Hyuga and Naruto Uzumaki has been very divisive throughout the years, which comes from the fact that Kishimoto didn't give them a lot of moments in the original series to forge a bond together.

However, there are also a lot of people who have enjoyed this relationship based on what they have built throughout the years, especially regarding the characters of Boruto and Himawari. Furthermore, some people have loved the idea of a member of the Hyuga clan always loving the legendary protagonist since childhood, highlighting how she was the only one who saw good in him.
