Masashi Kishimoto began working on Naruto. He probably didn’t know that this series would be so popular. It’s because of its eccentric and charming protagonist and great storylines that Naruto remains one of the most beloved manga and anime franchises. After Naruto’s story was over, Kishimoto began work on a new generation of stories. These stories would be about Boruto Uzumaki, Naruto and Hinata’s son. We won’t be talking about him, but we will talk about his mother Hinata Hyuga. Her death is the main topic today. Did she die in Naruto: Shippuden or Boruto? Continue reading to find out.
Hinata does not die in Naruto Shippuden; she is healed after being stabbed. Her status in Boruto is still unknown. The present shows that she is alive. However, the scene in the future where Boruto fought Kawaki suggested that many of the Naruto characters, including Naruto, Sasuke, and Hinata, are actually dead. This hasn’t been confirmed nor denied by the universe. Kishimoto said that either Naruto or Hinata would be in the series. However, it is not both.
Today’s article will be about Hinata Hyuga, her apparent death, and how she survived. After getting to know the character, we will explain the shocking scene in Naruto, where she nearly died, and discuss her status within the Boruto Series. Keep reading for more information!
Who is Hinata Hyuga?
Hinata Hyuga (Japanese, Ri Xiang hinata), later Hinata Uzumaki (Japanese, uzumaki hinata), is a fictional character that appears in the Naruto franchise. It was created by Masashi Kishimoto. She is a female shinobi, a friend of Naruto’s and the love of his heart. Although she is a minor character in the story, she plays a significant role and becomes Naruto’s wife and mother to Boruto Uzumaki.
Hinata Hyuga, a member of Team 8, is self-conscious and has low self-confidence. Although Hinata Hyuga was raised from the Hyuga main branch and was expected to be the next head of the clan, her father Hiashi disapproved of her shyness and inability to defend herself after she lost to her younger sister Hanabi. Hanabi became her father’s successor.
Hiashi disowned Hinata and put her in the care of Kurenai Yuhi. Kurenai guided Hinata to train to be strong in both her abilities and to prove her worth to her father. Hinata’s self-confidence has grown largely from her admiration of Naruto. She is inspired by her enthusiasm for the character and her determination to never lose heart. As the series progresses Hinata’s admiration of Naruto turns into love.
Part II is where Hinata tells Naruto her feelings. She protects him from Pain, and then she helps him in the Allied Ninja fight against the Ten-Tails. After the Fourth Great Ninja War’s end, Hinata marries Naruto in the epilogue. They have two children.
Does Hinata die in Naruto: Shippuden?
We know that not everyone likes Hinata Hyuga’s character, but she survived a fatal stabbing in Naruto. She is still there, though not as prominently in the later stories. Boruto was born to her at some point. It’s only natural that she survived the events of Naruto. In any other situation, she wouldn’t have been able to be Boruto’s mother.
This begs the question: Why do people ask such a question? Hinata’s encounter with Pain during “Pain’s Assault” episode 152-175, or, if you prefer the manga, between chapters 413-453. This is the answer.
Why and when does Pain stab Hinata, and what is the answer?
Naruto is fighting Pain, and faces defeat. Hinata arrives to save him and help him. Episode 166, “Confession”, features Hinata fighting back against Pain with her Gentle Step Twin Lion Fists technique. However, Pain’s Deva Path technique soon triumphs over Hinata.
Pain is puzzled by Hinata’s willingness to go to great lengths to defend Naruto. She was well aware that she would die if she continued fighting. Hinata says that she will not give up because it is her Nindo to which Pain responds with an attack. This sends Hinata into the air and pulls her to the ground.
Then, he uses one of his knives to brutally stab Hinata. Naruto thought she was dead and transformed into his Version 2 form to fight Pain. However, he didn’t know that Hinata had survived. Later, Neji from Team Guy found her and treated her.
Does Hinata die in Boruto?
The answer to this question is still a mystery as of today. In the current timeline, Hinata (Boruto’s mom) is alive and well, along with Naruto, Sasuke, and Naruto. The answer is no, she doesn’t die in Boruto. Masashi Kishimoto, the writer and creator of Boruto, stated in an interview that either Naruto or Hinata would feature in Boruto.
This implied that one would die while the other would live. Fans have been speculating ever since about this interview, with one of the most plausible theories being that Hinata would die because Naruto is too important and powerful to be easily killed. We don’t know what Kishimoto plans for his character, so this speculation is pure speculation. This is the first scene of the Boruto anime.
It shows us an earlier Boruto Uzumaki facing Kawaki, during the destruction of his village. It is clear that this future is dark, and neither Naruto nor Sasuke will be present during the fight. People also believed that Hinata would be dead if Naruto died.
